The hard driven on my new macbook pro is divided into two sections and I don't know how to access the second half.
Under "about this mac" and "system report" my hard drive is described as 750gb with 4 sub categories 1-Macintosh HD 2-recovery hd 3-untitled 4-recovery hd. I have almost filled the macintosh hd and am getting low memory warnings. How do I access the second half of my hard drive?
Thanks,
Nate
I think I figured it out. Of course as soon as I post something I figure it out. Anyway, I went into disk utility and could see "untitled" but it was greyed out and not accessible. I then clicked the "mount" button and now the disk is available in finder. I'm not sure how it got unmounted but I am able to write to it and access it so I guess the problem is solved.

Nokia Lumia 928 apparently died after an attempted Windows 8.1 update. Replacement phone arrived the next day. How can I restore my contacts, photos, etc.? Backup assistant is no help and I don't know how to access the Cloud.
Did you have the phone set to backup things to the One Drive on Microsoft servers?

Hi, I just put a new internal hard disk to my MacBook after formattimg it and I don't know how to install the OS X? Any help please
Be sure you have prepared the new drive correctly:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation. -
I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?
Thank youSo it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

I preordered a album then preordered the Same one and I don't know how to cancel the one I preordered that I didn't mean too and it's charging me for both and I don't have a lot of money on my iTunes
Go to the iTunes Store. Click on your Apple ID and enter your password. Scroll down towards the end of the page, you should see a line item that says Pre-Order. You can cancel the pre-order there.

Re: That garbage is unreadable.
If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself. -

When I went and connected my phone to my laptop and hit restore and it got rid of everything my photos my contacts everything and I don't know how to get the stuff back and if you need to know I have an IPhone4S
I take it you were replacing an older iPhone and this was the first time you plugged it in? If so, that's what happens. It restored the backup of your old phone. A backup of the current phone is not made in those circumstances.
If that's not what happened, you need to clarify. -
The volume on my iPod was just fine, but somehow it got turned up too loud, and I don't know how to turn it down.
Hi Virginia1945,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Depending on which iPod nano model you have, you can adjust the volume with the button on the side, the top, or using the click wheel. You may also be able to set a maximum volume, so it doesn't get turned up too loud in the future.
You can find the user guides for your iPod nano at this link:

My new 4S is set to slide to unlock and I don't know how to answer a call.
I don't knpw how the configuration changed but it switched from slide to answer to slide to unlock.
I don't know how to answer a call and want to get the configuration back to skide to answer.
How do I do that?I should have been clearer, if I receive a call from someone who is not in my address book, I cannot answer the call because the phone remains in "Slide to Unlock" and is not in "Slide to Answer."

Moving the Hard Drive to a new Macbook Pro
I am going to be switching from a MId 2012 13.3"/2.5GhZ Core i5 to a Mid 2012 13.3"/2.9GhZ, Core i7. Can I just swap out the Hard Drives, assuming both Macbooks are on the latest version of Mountain Lion?
Thank youAll you need is a 00 (double zero) phillips screwdriver. Done right means not screwing anything up like stressing the HDD cable when you are disconnecting or reconnecting it or buggering up anything else while you have the bottom off.
One tip. Do not disconnected the battery. Although some guides suggest that you do, it is not needed and can only cause problems if it isn't disconnected or reconnected properly. -
I'm having trouble adding "spoken word" CDs that are in a set to my library. When some of the discs have "gracenotes" info the album gets broken up as if each cd was a separate album. I haven't been able to figure out how to have all the cds in the set appear as one album. I have entered each one in the "get info" page as "1 of 7" and "2 of 7" etc, but the ones with gracenote info get put into a separate album. It's frustrating so far! Also, when I want copy an album to the burn folder so i can share it with a friend, it moves the songs as songs, not as albums. Any way around this? Thanks very much!
See Grouping tracks into albums.
PS, you don't have the right to burn copies of the songs you've bought/ripped to give away to your fiends...
