I have a Mac OS 10.6.8 server in my classroom that I have networked to student accounts on the iMacs in the room.  How do I create a folder that allows studnts to place their finished assignments in it, but does not allow them to go in and remove anything from that folder?

You want a "Drop Box" style folder. You should be able to achieve this by creating a folder and giving it permissions similar to the "Drop Box" folder in your users Public Folder (i.e. write only permissions.)

  • HT1347 I have an mp3 DVD with episodes of Gunsmoke.  iTunes imports them, but does not sort them correctly by date or episode.  One file name is GS 52-04-26 001 Billy the Kid.mp3

    I have an mp3 DVD with episodes of Gunsmoke.  iTunes imports them, but does not sort them correctly by date or episode.  One file name is GS 52-04-26 001 Billy the Kid.mp3.  iTunes sorts them by month/day/year.  How can I fix that?

    The weird thing is, it worked before. I encoded all the videos previously and had them all listed and didn't encounter this problem, but I noticed I'd forgotten to decomb/detelecine the videos so I deleted everything and re-encoded it all. AFter filling the tags out and setting poster frames again I was thinking of making life easier by just pasting the same artwork for every episode, so I did, but didn't like the results so I deleted it again (I selected every video, used Get Info and pasted the artwork that way).
    I think it was after this that the problem started to occur. In any case I've been through every episode and made sure the name, series, episode and episode id fields are all filled in with incremental values and they are. I even made sure the Sort Name field was filled in on every video. But this didn't work either.
    So, thinking another restart was needed I deleted every video again. Re-encoded them all, again. Set the tags for every video and poster frame again. Finished it all off nicely, checked cover flow and was highly annoyed to find it was STILL showing the same two pieces of art work for every video as shown in that image I posted.
    Ultimately, I wouldn't care so much that cover flow is screwing up like this as I always intended to sort by program anyway so it would only ever display one piece of artwork for an entire series of videos, however where-as when it was working it picked the artwork for the first episode of a series to display, its instead picking one of the latter episodes. I can't seem to find any way of choosing what artwork I want displayed.

  • I am new with iMac and I am trying to copy some file from my external HDD but it does not let me also I can't delete anything from this HDD using the finder. Can somebody help me , please?

    I am new with iMac and I am trying to copy some file from my external HDD that a used with my PC but it does not let me also I can't delete anything from this HDD using the finder. Can somebody help me , please?

    No, unfortunately, when you format a drive, it will erase all the contents. So you will need to find a temporary "storage" place to put the stuff using a PC so you have access to it. Then reformat using Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). If only using with mac, format Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and use GUID Partition scheme under Partitions/Options. After formatting, you can drag the files back.

  • Issue is with OpenGL. System Info it allows Normal Mode but does not allow Advanced Mode.

    Problems with Repousse 3D feature in Photoshop CS5 Extended  
    I am trying to use the Repousse 3D feature in Photoshop CS5 Extended and have been unable to figure how I can get it to be an option using text. Can you explain how I do this, please?
    I have also tried rasterizing the text first and that does not work. I have tried placing the image and them loading the selection and I still do not have the option of Repousse.
    I believe the issue is with my OpenGL. In the System Info it allows Normal Mode but does not allow Advanced Mode. I spoke with the "Geek Squad" who advised that this is not an issue with my Mac but has something to do with the software.
    Can someone please help me fix this?  Thanks.

    If you really want help you may have to provide relevant information about your OS, GPU, its VRAM …

  • Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line.  If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
    I turned my iPhone off and called it.  Right away I heard my message.
    I turned my iPhone back on and called it.  It rang right away!
    So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
    I don't know, but I'll take either.  I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem.  Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up.  I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time.  Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
    If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
    P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open.  I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
    P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week.  Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.

  • How come my external hard drive is no longer visible in finder even after ticking it in preferences? it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help.

    it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help. also my external hard drive is a seagate free agent go, 500GB. it is visible on my tv but has no files in it… i'm scared i've lost everything?

    Honestly i cannot remember sorry, i got it like 5 maybe 6 yrs ago and just started downloading things to it as the memory on the computer started filling up and when i wanted to see photos/videos on my TV.
    My wife did tell me after i had written this post that she did try and record TV to it as it was plugged in. I think by doing so somehow has deleted everything.   It reads on my TV yet has no files in it but won't show up on my computer. hope this helps.
    Starting to think it is going to cost more to retrieve files on it than it will be to buy a newer and larger one.

    Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

    Anyone has been having this problem?

    I have the same issue, bteween France and The Netherlands. No solution found yet.
    Worse even. My credit card is not from The Netherlands, and the dutch store does not accept a creditcard from outside NL. So i used my french card to buy one app using France has my home country. Luckily the app's language remained English, but now the french store seems to be offering me frech versions of existing (free) apps which i dont want. So i cant use the updates.
    i cant change the country back to Neterlands, without using a credit card. I can make a new ID, but the old one remains stuck with the french store, pffff It seems the only solution is to create a new ID via a "purchase" of a free app, but the older free apps all may need to be reinstalled that way.
    Typical Apple ..... ? ! !
    I may regret having purchased this ipad.....

  • Clicking update opens apps, but does not update them

    When I click "update" in the app store, the app that should update opens, but does not update.
    DEVICE: I am using an ipad mini with iOS 7.0.6 and 5.6 GB of storage available.  I don't have any kind of app manager apps or anything like that.
    THINGS I HAVE TRIED:
    rebooting
    closing all apps and rebooting
    signing out of app store, closing all apps, rebooting, and signing back in to app store
    deleting apps to create more space
    changed app store settings to update automatically

    Here's a link to a thread that solved the problem for me:

    The culprit was that the Flash plugin needed updating for FF. That was it.
    Go to Firefox; Preferences; General (tab); Add-ons; Manage Add-ons; Plugins.
    I clicked on Find Updates and immediately updated the Flash plugin.
    Hope this helps others.

  • My Gmail appearance, Theme, is OK on one Desktop using XP, but does not have the same appearance on the Desktop running on Windows 7. The Theme chosen does not install on Windows 7

    If I choose a Theme for the appearance of my Gmail Inbox, using my Dell Inspiron computer running on Windows 7, the new Theme appears on my other computer running on XP, but not on my Dell!
    On my Dell, all the messages in the Inbox are separated by a black line, in fact yjere are many black lines and no colors shown on the Windows 7 Dell. This was not there from the beginning, but came about z week ago.

    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

  • I have just purchased a Nikon D7000 and iPhoto downloads jpgs but does not show them. It shows an empty frame. If you double click the frame it will show the image. I have tried importing images from the Nikon provided software and the same thing happens.

    I just purchased a Nikon D7000. However, iPhoto does not display JPEG images. I seems to download ok, but displays only an empty box. Double clicking on the box opens the image in a single display window. It does the same thing when importing from Nikon's supplied software. Forget about handling RAW files. Now, I'm having difficulty importing JPGs from Photoshop files for slide shows or use in iMovie.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Windows Phone 8.1 Universal: VS 2013 deploys app to device but does not delete data file in roamingfolder and roaming is not activated.

    I am using VS 2013 to develop a Windows Phone 8.1 Universal app.  When I deploy to the device (my phone), the old data file that I had stored in the roamingfolder previously continues to be used.  I have uninstalled the app after being deployed,
    I put code in the app to delete the files individually from the roamingfolder and used ClearAsync(). That worked until I deployed the app again and then the old files came back.  I have not associated these apps with the store yet so roaming should
    not be working. The desktop app does not have this problem, when I uninstall it the files are deleted.
    In the phone app properties debug tab, I have the Uninstall and the reinstall my package checked for all configurations.  I have looked everywhere I can think of for these old files: laptop c:, phone tempfolder, localfolder, etc. thinking VS is reinstalling
    them from somewhere when deploying the app but I cannot find them.  If I change the phone app to use the localfolder, the old files are not used.
    Is this just the way it is if I use the roamingfolder or is there a way to delete these old files?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    Hi MV12,
    >>When I deploy to the device (my phone), the old data file that I had stored in the roamingfolder previously continues to be used
    Yes, it is designed to work like that, please refer to this document for details:
    #Accessing app data with the Windows Runtime (Windows Runtime apps)
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh464917.aspx#roaming_app_data
    Roaming data for an app is available in the cloud as long as it is accessed by the user from some device within the required time interval.
    If the user does not run an app for longer than this time interval, its roaming data is removed from the cloud.
    If a user uninstalls an app, its roaming data isn't automatically removed from the cloud, it's preserved. If the user reinstalls the app within the time interval, the roaming data is synchronized from the cloud. The current policy specifies
    that this time interval is 30 days. Location is available via the roamingFolder property.
    >>Is this just the way it is if I use the roamingfolder or is there a way to delete these old files?
    No, you will have to wait.
