If you have lion and v6 airport utility.. it missed out. On lots of things.

  • How can I transfer/copy my entire iPhoto library from one iMac to another iMac whilst keeping all the folders and subfolders intact?

    We recently purchased a new iMac for our office (8 GB memory, 2.7 processor, version 10.9.2) and we need to copy the iPhoto library from our other iMac (version 10.9.4) onto the new one. The photos are essential for our work and there are around 53,000 of them all organised into folders and subfolders and then the photos are manually ordered within the albums.
    We have tried connecting the computers but when we tried to access the iPhoto library on the new iMac it says that iPhoto is locked and we do not have permission to view it. We updated iPhoto on the old iMac as we thought that might be the problem but the message still appears. We've been advised to use an external hard drive but we're worried that will corrupt the organisation of the library. We have also been told not to do it over AirDrop / the Server because of the sheer quantity of photos.
    Any advice on how to safely do this would be much appreciated.

    No idea exactly what you did
    if you followed the instructions
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    then you have exactly the same thin on your new system that you had on the old
    If you do something differently - like import the library instead of simply opening it - then it will not work
    did you dimply drag the iPhoto library from the pictures folder of the old machine to the pictures folder of the new machine and then launch iPhoto on the new machine?
    and to help it is important to use word correctly since that is the only communications method we have - in iPhoto folders do not contain photos - you view photos in events and you can organize them using albums (which view photos) and folders (which hold either albums or other folders - folders never have photos in them) so your description of the problem is not at all clear since it uses folders incorretly

  • How can I move/copy scanned photos that were sent to my gmail account? I have not been able to move or copy to iPhoto.

    How can I move/copy scanned photos that were sent to my gmail account? I have not been able to move or copy to iPhoto.

    Hello SusieMacBook,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 
    You can definitely get these photos into iPhoto if they are the correct file type (JPEG, GIF, TIFF, and PNG).  The way you import the photo attachments depends on where you check your e-mail.  The following article is for iPhoto 11 (but should work for previous versions as well).  It outlines how to import photos from Mac Mail, other e-mail applications, and web browsers, so just look at the section that applies to you.

    I hope this helps!

  • How to use AirPort Time Capsule 2TB as an external storage hard drive only?

    I have a new AirPort Time Capsule 3TB, now I want to use my AirPort Time Capsule 2TB as an external storage hard drive only, how do I it? 
    I would like to  connect the AirPort Time Capsule 2TB directly to my Mac Pro. using OS X 10.7.5.
    I have erase disk and reset the 2TB to factory default, after that, I cannot make it to connect to my Mac.  Please help.

    The 2TB Time Capsule needs to connect to your 3TB Time Capsule using a wired Ethernet connection.
    Connect from a LAN <--> port on the 3 TB Time Capsule to the WAN "O" port on the 2 TB Time Capsule and configure the 2TB Time Capsule in Bridge Mode and turn off the wireless function on the device as well.
    Once that is done, you can connect your Mac directly to the 2TB Time Capsule using another Ethernet cable, or your Mac can connect to the network using the normal wireless network, if you prefer.

  • After I configure my time capsule to my newly replaced macbook hard drive, are my old backups still available?

    After I configure my time capsule to my newly replaced macbook hard drive, are my old backups still available?

    How old was this backup? It sounds like it was at least several weeks old.
    You can look directly in the TM backup for the music.
    1. Connect to the external HDD the backup is kept on.
    2. Open a Finder window and select the backup drive in the left hand panel. Double click into the folders until you see a list of folders with dates.
    These are the incremental backups. You can start at the top or the bottom of the list but I suggest you double Latest/<HDD Name>/Users/<Account Name>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music. From this location you can start looking for the "missing" music. When/if you find it you can simply drag-n-drop to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music on the internal HDD.
    If the music is actually not in the backups (for whatever reason) then you've got a problem.
    You can download the uploaded files from the cloud by deleting the affected tracks from the iTunes library (but not the cloud!), highlighting multiple tracks at once, right-clicking and choosing "download."

    I need your help, PLEASE. How can to fix "NO MOUNTABLE FILE SYSTEM" error of my back up hard drive on Mountain Lion OS?

    Did you format the drive for Mac use before you tried to use it as a backup drive?
    Are you using Time Machine on the drive? You can't view the contents of its backup database and the only way to access the info is directly from the Time Machine app.

    How can I stop auto download of attachments without tapping on them? Once I open a mail, the attachment automatically starts downloading, though it is written as "tap to download". Please help..

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to prevent the automatic downloading of the SD version when you buy an HD show.
    You can, if you wish, suggest that the ability to prevent the SD version from downloading through the iTunes feedback page. But since the SD version is needed for use on iPods and there at least at present is no mechanism for someone to download the SD version at a later time should they decide they need it, Apple may just continue to force the downloading of both versions. If they get enough feedback on the issue, though, they may figure something out.
    Regards.

  • TS3367 I was trying to contact my wife in another country on a trip as I have several times since she has been away. Today we connected and then lost the signal and when I tried her again I got connected to someone in CA. How does that happen??

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

  • How can i hold a spot in a clip, let the audio continue for a moment and then resume the clip and audio together?

    how can i hold a spot in a clip, let the audio continue for a moment and then resume the clip and audio together?

    you want to use the retiming tool. you can select what you want to hold, then use the "Hold" command (shift-H) to create a single frame of a default duration, which you can then change to whatever length you want by dragging the retiming handle.
    Here's the page in the help manual that describes the hold feature in detail:

  • Can the time capsule be used as an external hard drive

    Can the time capsule be used as an external hard drive

    If you mean by usb to a computer no.. it is a network device only and has to be used via ethernet or wireless.
    It can be used standalone,, ie not plugged into an existing network.. but there are some steps required to make it work if you want internet connection at the same time. It is generally much easier to have the TC bridged into the network.

  • How do I move music from iPod back to my computer w/reformatted hard drive?

    My computer was malfunctioning and required a reinstallation of the OS. Doing so overwrote my iTunes library. Now the only place the library exists is on my iPod. Is there any way for me to transfer the library back to my computer? Thanks.

    P.C. Instructions
    Plug your iPod into your computer. Make sure that disk use is enabled. (enable it in iTunes on the main iPod screen; if you manually manage your music, then it is already enabled.) Go to my computer. First, right-click your iPod. Then, select Tools ® Folder Options. This takes you to Control Panel ® Folder Options. Select the View tab. Under "Hidden files and folders," change "Do not show hidden files and folders" to "Show hidden files and folders." Click Apply to All Folders, and now all the invisible files on your iPod will be visible.
    To get to your music files, navigate to iPod_Control\Music (meaning click on the iPod drive in My Computer). There you will find a series of folders starting with a letter and ending with a number. Congratulations! You are now looking at your iPod database, where all your music files are kept. As with any other file, you can now copy your music to anywhere on your computer.
    On a MAC
    Launch the Terminal.application and type:
    find /Volumes/[iPod'sNAME]/iPod_Control/Music -print | awk '¬ { gsub(/ /, "\ "); print }'
    Substitute the name of your iPod for [iPod'sNAME]. Any spaces should be replaced with underscores (_). This will print a list of all the songs inside the Music folder with \ in place of spaces. Then, simply copy the location to the song you want and type open followed by that location to begin playing that song. You can then use a standard copy command such as cp to copy any file you select to its new location. This is tedious though. To copy your entire iPod's entire Music folder to your local computer, simply open the Terminal and write:
    %ditto /Volumes/[iPod'sNAME]/iPod_Control/Music/ ~/Music/iPodTunes/
    Again, substitute your iPod's name for [iPod'sNAME], using an underscore for any spaces in the name. This will copy the entire contents of your iPod's Music folder into a new folder inside your home directory's Music folder called iPodTunes.

  • Is there a way of storing files on both iCloud Drive and my Time Capsule, but not my built in Hard Drive?

    I have a Mac Book Pro. I work with large video files, which I sometimes want to save on a Time Capsule - or another external hard drive, as well as the cloud.
    I sometime want to access the videos when I travel - and really want a no-nonsense solution which allows me to store the videos on the external HD, but access them through the cloud when traveling - even when the power is down and my external HD at home is switched off (I live in The Bahamas, where this frequently happens.)
    Any Suggestions?

    You didn't have a backup of your MacBook's hard drive when it had to be replaced?  If you do look in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to see if the Doman.sites2 file is there.  If it is drag it to the same folder on your new hard drive and open with iWeb.  That should give you your old sites back.
    If you don't have a backup then you'll have to do what QTKirt pointed out.  However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the creation of the new site.

  • How do I move image files from my aperture library to an external hard drive?

    I want to free up space on my MacBook Pro by moving most of my image files to a new external hard drive. I want to manage these image files with Aperture as referenced files.  I've read much about importing from external drives, leaving the original image file on the external drive, and managing as a managed reference file.  But but I haven't seen anything in the literature yet that tells me how to free up space on my laptop's drive.

    The screen shot got messed up so its hard to tell what part you're asking about. But if you're asking about this part of the window:
    That's were you setup the folders that the originals will go into and how you want the originals to be named (if you want to change the way they are named)
    The Subfolder format box defines how the subfolders will be named. IN the image above the subfolders will be named by the image date. A folder for the year, a folder under that for the month and then a folder under that for the day. Then finally the original files.
    The name format sets how the originals are named. In the case above they would be named by the version name followed by a sequence number.
