Icons were all stacked in one place on desktop

I needed to re-start my Mac. When I did, all of the desktop icons were stacked on top of each other, occupying only one space on the desktop. Not being very useful that way, I had to create a new folder, move all of them into the folder and then move them back to the desktop. Why did this happen? Did I do something wrong to make this happen.

Not being very useful that way, I had to create a new folder, move all of them into the folder and then move them back to the desktop.
If it happens again, just click anywhere on the Desktop, other than on the icons, then click, "Clean Up," in the Finder's View menu.

Can I access my husband's iTunes acct. from my iPad? I have his permission & pass code. We want to keep all music in one place & family accessible.

Can I access my husband's iTunes acct. from my iPad? i have his permission & pass code. We want to keep all music in one place & family accessible.

If you log into his account and download some of his past purchases on your iPad then you risk tying your iPad to his account for 90 days : iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
But it looks like that might change when iOS 8 is released in the Autumn (no date has been announced yet) : http://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/family-sharing/
If you have his content in your computer's iTunes library then you could sync it from there instead of risking the 90 days association on your iPad. If you don't then you could copy it from his computer and then sync it to your iPad e.g. copy his music to a flash drive and then add it to your library via File > Add To Library

Somehow I ended up with two email accts and would like to get all emails in one place

Somehow I ended up with two email accts and was able to get messages all in one place until today. Now they are fragmented and I have to go into xfinity to get Comcast mail and gmail is not transferring messages.

Try deleting one of the accounts.

All Patterns at one place

Hi,
I want all the Java Patterns at one place; not the J2EE patterns.
Eric Gamma book provides examples in C++.
It's unfortunate that I can't find Java Patterns at java.sun.com.
I am looking at javacamp.org.
Can somebody suggest a good web site with all Java patterns in it.

There is the well known Portland Pattern Repository, not limited to Java, though.

Multiple devices on same account - how to transfer ALL files in one place?

Hi,
I am using my Apple ID on 5 apple devices, incl. 2 laptops and Mac. Need to migrate all files to one computer for syncing with iPhone and cut out some devices, but...
Question 1: How I can move ALL my music files from old MB Pro (runs Mac OS X 10.5.8) with iTunes 10 to Mac (runs Mac OS X 10.9.2) with iTunes 11.1.5?
Note, this includes songs purchased outside of iTunes and burnt from CDs. Is it possible to somehow easily identify the songs that are missing on Mac and copy just them from the old computer, but without manually comparing? For now for whatever reason Mac only has 401 songs vs my old MB Pro has 1670+ songs. So, please suggest how to make the import on the missing songs to Mac as efficient as possible.
Question 2: How do I deauthorize the device once I copy my old music to Mac? Currently only see the button "Deathorize All" in iTunes on Mac. What if I want to choose which computers I still want to be able to stay on the same Apple ID in iTunes?
Thanks a lot!!

Decide which Mac is your primary. On the Mac that is not the primary - create a folder on the desktop - drag all the tunes from iTunes into that folder - copy that folder to an ext HD or a memory stick.
Plug into the primary Mac and tell iTunes to import all the tunes from the folder.
iTunes has good sort options so it won't take long to get rid of the duplicates using the Show Duplicates from the View dropdown menu.
An alternative would be to check at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/ and see if there is a script that will take care of what you want.

Importing all pictures to one place

when i import my pics they make a new folder named the date i imported them, thus making too many folders.
how do i make my pictures go to one folder even when i import them on different dares

Are you asking about importing photos that were captured by your iPhone?
If so, what are you using for the import on your computer?

Question on putting/registering all XSd at one place

Hi,
I need to have one common location for all XSD used for project. So what is the right way to put on server and access from there instead of adding in all project physically.
I have AIA XSD files like LocationEBO.xsd, LocationEBM.xsd and all core components xsd files.
Now my ESB and ABCS services are based on these xsd. If i use them and put physically on project location i get duplicate namespace error, As i can have one namespace for one server.
So i think there should be some way to deploy all xsd at common location then access them from there?
Please provide information.
Thanks,
Jack

Problems with data merge (CS4) - puts all fields in one

Data merge is acting very weird, I have a standard textfile of six columns exported to .csv. When I import it in InDesign it puts all fields in one place (see image) and it becomes totally useless. Has anyone had this problem and if so, how did you solve it?
Thank you!

It is a regular textfile (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1k0bmos4r2l7lCtegA1CGHIcw98jrM
) divided into columns...

I took a look at the image, now that it's out of the queue, and the
fields seem to be seaparted by semi-colons. How did you make the file?

ID recognizes comma-sparated (CSV) or tab-delimited text files.

I want to use my Time Capsule as a central 'hub/hard-drive' in order to keep all my working files in one place. I then plan to use my laptops/desktops as peripheral devices for editing and creation of these files. Is it possible? Create a personal cloud?

I am looking to have all my files in one place as i am hopelessly disorganised. I know the online clouds are a good solution (used Dropbox at work and uni for 3 years) however i am wanting to create my own 'dropbox/icloud' at home. So whenever i get back home with my laptop, any work i have been working on whilst out that day is updated to the timecapsule, and then ultimately as i turn on the other devices, they update to those newer versions of the files. Please tell me that the 3TB time capsule i have can do this, otherwise it feels rather overpriced as a wireless storage device?
Another note (to those in the know) If i am to be working on large files (REVIT/SOLIDWORKS/KEYSHOT/CREO/AUTOCAD) - is the timecapsule connection good enough to support editing and updating these files?
I know i may be asking a question that many have before, but as a bit of a technical novice I wanted a clear-cut answer to my specific circumstances. Your help is greatly appreciated.
(*can i use this WD hard-drive that is connected to the Time Capsule as a back up? so that the time machine back-ups/any back ups are also backed up onto this one? can the WD be a backup for the TC?)
Kind Regards
Joe

The diagram was supposed to look more like this......

TS3212 All your music in one place. This is what's showing when I downloaded the new itunes but will not go any further. Have been here for 20 minutes? Do I need to start over? Or is there something else I can do to get to so I can click next for the

I've been trying to down load the new itunes version and I'm stuck on All your music in one place but now it's been stuck there for over 20 minutes. Do I need to start over or is this normal?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

Is there a way to create my own app store that I can share with employees? I'm thinking apps that we've identified as important or needed, all in one place.

Not exactly your own app store, but close. Apple has an App Store Volume Purchasing Program for Business > http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
It allows you to purchase apps in any quantity you desire and pay using a company credit card. You will receive a spreadsheet of redeem codes which you distribute to your emloyees. The program guide has complete information > http://images.apple.com/business/docs/VPP_Business_Guide_US.pdf

How do i find and see all media files from email in one place?

I'm trying to find all the pictures and movies people have sent me over the years in emails and then extract them to put them into Aperture. Is there a way of doing this simply? ideally not manually where i have to open each email and save attachment but can see the attachments in one place and decide which ones to grab.
Thanks

You can select any number of keyframes in a timeline and drag those keyframes forward or back in the timeline without altering any other layers. You can also select a range of frames by selecting one keyframe and then shift clicking on a second keyframe in the same layer. With these frames selected you then drag this selection left or right in that layer to move it forward or back in time. You can have more than one selection moving in more than one layer.
Alternately, you can add or delete frames from any layer. You can select more than one frame in a layer and then delete those selected frames. All of these methods are "undo-able", but you still may want to make a copy of your file before you begin a massive edit. Save after every edit of the timeline so that you don't overtax your memory.

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Lightroom Mobile is not a cloud storage service. You shouldn't treat it as a way of backing up your files. You are merely storing Smart Previews of your files in the cloud space, high-quality JPEGs of your files regardless of their original format on your desktop. The point is that they are there so you can continue editing them in a Lightroom-like environment even while away from your desktop/laptop computer. The files in Lightroom Mobile can only be used in Lightroom Mobile.
This is very different from what is offered by the Creative Cloud storage, which can be used to synchronize your files between any device (that can support the individual files).
The vast difference in how each service works and its intended use is why they are separate.

I was given one price by the customer service rep, asked to speak to a supervisor, and they were all in a meeting, at 6 pm at night, how do you speak with somebody with knowledge at VerizonWireless?

I have been a customer with VerizonWireless for over 10 years. I called two months ago because they had a new rate plan, in reading information on the website, it appeared they were going to switch everyone to the new program. I called (mainly because my bill was nuts) and the rep told me the new plan she was switching me to was $180 per month. The first bill came and it was $280, which they explained away as I was switching plans. The next month it was $255 (which was $25 more than I was paying), when I called the rep - was very quiet. I explained what I was told and she seemed confused. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, she stated they were all in a meeting and one would return my call within 24 hours. IT HAS NOW BEEN 36 HOURS AND I CAN GUARANTEE I WILL NOT HEAR FROM VERIZONWIRELESS MANAGEMENT UNTIL I CALL THEM AGAIN.
This is truly wonderful customer service!!!! Does anyone know how to reach somebody at VerizonWireless, that can explain why I was told one thing and then received something else. My thought is if they treat a 10 year customer this way, how are they treating the new customers.

Ohvandijk1,
Hearing of your experience is very concerning to me and I want to help find the answers you're looking for. I would like to review the bills you're referring to. I've requested to follow you. Please accept, follow me back, and then use these steps http://vz.to/1cOOY6O to send me a direct message. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
