  • My HD (SSD) is nearly full and I can't figure out how to free up space.

    My HDD is nearly full and "About this Mac" reports I have used 189 Gb under the category of "Other". I don't know how all this space got used up or what its comprised of but I'd like to delete it but can't even locate it to do so.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanx

  • My startup disk is full but I can't find out what takes up all the space..., My startup disk is full but I can't find out what takes up all the space...

    Several times I tried to find out what fills up my space but I couldn't figure it out. I have pictures and some real short movies on my mac and maybe 10 word documents that's it. Is it a possibility that I have a virus or something? I'm really not familiar with these kind of things...

    Don't remove the entire Application Support folder, it's very important. You may find that there are folders inside belonging to applications which you're sure you won't use - for example, Garageband tends to store a lot of loops there, so you can remove its subfolder if you don't want to use it.
    For the Dropbox questions, don't delete subfolders from your Dropbox in the Finder, or they'll be removed from your cloud Dropbox. Either use selective syncing (which should delete the appropriate folders immediately) or uninstall Dropbox completely from your computer (which will retain everything in the cloud).

  • HI! I'VE ENABLED MY IPAD AGAIN BUT I CAN'T FIND OUT HOW TO GOT TO FORGOT PASSWORD

    I need to re-set my password but I cant remember my old one

    Those are the instructions for your computer's iTunes (i.e. using the Store menu at the top of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'View My Account' on it). If you are doing it on your iPad then are you following the instructions for iOS devices :
    To unhide your purchases
    Depending on the content type, open the App Store, iBooks, or iTunes Store on your device.
    Scroll to the bottom of the main page.
    If you're not already signed in, tap Sign In.
    Tap your Apple ID name, then tap View Account.
    Scroll down on the Account pane, and tap Hidden Purchases.
    Locate the item you would like to unhide then tap the Unhide button.

  • I am using Aurora, but I can't find out how to ask a question for it and not firefox. My real question is how to reach the about: config page in Aurora.

    For some reason, Mozilla Support has no section for me to ask a question about Mozilla Aurora. I need to know how to reach the about: config page in Aurora and no one has apparently asked this question before. Someone please help me on this issue because no one seems to know

    Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
    The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
    You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.
    The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

    It would help if you told us which ages version you use? Are you still on MacOs 10.6.8?
    Did you use text boxes?

  • Am getting message from MacPro that my start up disc is full - but I can't find it and can't figure out what to do to help situation. I've been making a number of imovies, which generates junk files. help?

    I am getting message from MacPro that my start up disc is full - but I can't find this "start up disc" and can't figure out what to do to help situation. I've been making a number of imovies, which generates junk files and material that I should toss in the trash, but it is not clear to me  what items I can toss and which items I can't toss. Can you help? Using the imovie "help" support the system showed me under the menu item "go" where the "start up disc" should be - but that wasn't actually available on my menu!  Thanks for your help!

  • HT4859 On i-cloud, I have my contacts backed up off my i-phone, but i can't figure out how to back up calendar, notes & mail

    On my i-phone, my contacts are backed up on i-cloud, That seemed to have happened automatically, but I can't figure out how to set up so that my calendar, notes & mail are also backed up.

    Contacts, as well  as calendar, notes, mail, are NOT included in an icloud backup.  They reside in their own databases on icloud.

  • How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

    How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

    If you want to listen to the sounds of your drum set, you should use an audio cable and connect it to the computer's line-in, then create a real instrument track.
    If you use a Midi/USB interface, you'll have to create a software instrument track and select one of GB's drumsets as the instrument. Hopefully your drumset's midi notes are mapped to the right sounds in GB.

  • I gifted a ringtone to my sister that I purchased from the iTunes store, and it is on her phone, but we can't figure out how to get it moved to her ringtones.  Can anyone help?

    Edit > Preferences.  Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes. 
    Not sure that really answers your question though.

  • I prepare chronologies in word, and i am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But somtimes i need a cell to wrap onto the next page but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    I prepare chronologies in word, and I am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But sometimes I need a cell to wrap onto the next page because the contents are bigger than the page or the space left on the page,  but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    As far as I know, Apple is free to choose to offer this or that feature.
    They never said that they want to clone Word or even compete with it.
    Differences between tables in both worlds are numerous.
    In Pages (or Numbers)
    - we can't sort a single column
    - we can't sort by row
    - we can't insert or remove a single cell
    - a cell can't cross pages boundaries
    If I understand well these design choices match :

    Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
    Apply the 80 Percent Solution
    During the design process, if you discover problems with your product design, you might consider applying the 80 percent solution‚ that is, designing your software to meet the needs of at least 80 percent of your users. This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
    If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

  • A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

  • HT201209 i have credit in my account but i can not figure out how to buy a song

    I am new at the Itunes store.   I bought a prepaid card.  Bought 1 song. I don't remember how I did that.  Now I have a balance available and I would like to buy other songs.  But I can not figure out how to do it at all.  I have been trying for 2 hours.   Can someone please give me detailed Steps on what to do .  I want to buy some songs.  Put it on a Playlist and download them to a Cd.   thanks

    I go to HOME
    I go to MY WISH LIST
    I see the songs I want to buy and the price at the end.   If I scoll down from the price ...  there is no BUY OPTION.
    There is GIFT IT and Add to Wishlist.... but nothing about Buy.
    Is this because it is in my wish list.   should I just start over.  and go one song at a time .??
