The only thing I did was get down to 5GB HDD space, had a half-import, & something else

By that I mean here's what I got:
Both Libraries are the same path....
As in the title, I was/am running out of HDD drive space, I recently (and last time) had my last iPhone (IOS 7.*.*) iPhoto import go snafu (for first time between this MBP and 3 other iphones....ever), and I think I did something else like at the least a CHECKSUM or VERIFIED or REPAIRED permissions which seemed to make some other stuff squirlley.
Anyway, I have a mid-late 2010 (OCT) 7,1 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 with 8 GM 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM and a 250GB 2.5" startup disk
*******I have a 1TB SSD/HDD here waiting to replace my boot drive, with the adapter kit from OWC and all, but want to back up all my stuf and make it reduntant a few times first.  Problem is I have 1000 great photos since our snowfall here in the NE and don't to lose them and the ones of my daughter and baby daughter. 
Any help is much appreciated.
Best Regards,
GJ

Sorry but I do not even know what your question is
as a side note you must always have a minimum of 10GB of free space on your hard drive and more is better
If your photos are on your iphone then backup to iCloud in case of issues
I you could post a simple question with only the revelant context it would be good

  • I've recently spilt a little bit of water on my Macbook Pro 13" and some of it went into the keyboard, the first thing I did was get paper towels and dry it off, everything is except now the speakers sound different, and a little bit lower in volume

    I've recently spilt a little bit of water on my Macbook Pro 13" and some of it went into the keyboard, the first thing I did was get paper towels and dry it off, everything is except now the speakers sound different, and a little bit lower in volume, basically the speakers just sound weird, there's no word to describe it, I can't really hear any bass from my speakers

    Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
    After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
    The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
    Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
    After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
    There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
    Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
    In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
    In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
    contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.  

  • Installed on metro Samsung admire sch r720 the only thing it did was go to a grey screen and then i had to hit the home button for it to do anything. help!

    id like to re-download the application. only thing the application did was open to a grey screen.. i tried re-downloading from the play store.. aptoide and even your website. plz let me know. thank you

    Before doing a reinstall, which may not be needed at this point,
    Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
    You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Repair reports and if DU was able to repair them. This could just be a start in repairs and you may need a better utility to finish the job.
    Then Repair Permissions.
    No need to report any Permissions errors........we all get them.

    You have asked in a forum which has nothing to do with your question, and I have asked the Hosts to move it to the iPhone forum.

  • When turming on my ipad it comes up with passcode, which when i put it in it wont accept it. i have tryed switching of and back on and it makes no differense. the only thing i done was i put voiceover on and then tryed to switch it off and this happened.

    when turning my ipad on it comes up with passcode, when i try to enter it it wont accept. so i cannot get any further. the only thing i did was i was just messing and i turned on voiceover, then i tryed to turn it of and it wouldnt let me. i have tryed turning the ipad of and then turning it back on and that didnt work either. please help ....

    It's hard to see exactly how just turning voiceover on would have created a passcode, but regardless of that ... if you can't get it sorted so that you can enter whatever the code is, you're going to have to resort to Restoring the iPad from the computer it was last sync'ed to.

  • I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all photos. And I cannot find them anywhere.

    I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all 129 photos of my graduation and friends from the past two days. And I cannot find them anywhere, photo stream, ICloud, nothing. Where can I get back my memories?

    Were the photos taken by your new iPhone?  If so, did you not import them off your phone to your computer (as you would any other digital camera) before the restore?  If not, restoring wiped the data off the phone and your pictures are gone.
    Sounds like a good time to (re)read the User Guide.

  • I have lost my ipad in the lecture room just 2 hours ago, but i donot have any other apple divices and i donot instoll itues in my computer, the only thing i got was my account number and my email. so what can i do to find it??

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Worst thing I did was get this phone

    I have had nothing but issues when I dropped my phone after only having it 12 days... was told by a verizon authorized rep to get the insurance = so glad I did, however no one told me I had to pay 99.00 for a replacement or that it would be refurbished when I had not even and still havent gotten an email from Verizon about my insurance coverage or its process let alone that it was a contract company.  Now I have the replacement phone and neither Verizon nor Assurance is able to help me with some of the issues... I am writting the CEO and BB. 
    Can not find out anything on windows either!

    I agree with Scotto, your problem has to do with dropping your phone, not the phone itself.  In my experience a phone that has been damaged by the owner is never replaced with new, no matter how new it was.  If it had been defective it would have been replaced with new. 
    I dropped my Lumia the third day after I got it but I was lucky and it landed on the grass instead of the sidewalk so it wasn't damaged. 

  • HT1206 My older ipod is recognized by computer but the newer one is not.  The only thiing I did was to download and update.

    I am not very good with this infernal machine.  However I do use simple tools, my ipod is suddenly not recognized by itunes, yet my older ipod IS??????
    What ever I try to do does not work.  I downloaded the most recent update and now BOOM  it is not recognized and I am afraid that I will lose all my vintage recordings.

    Hello Muhlenmerg55,
    I would be concerned too if my iPod was not recognized by iTunes.  I found a couple of articles that might help with this.
    If you don't see your iPod in the My Computer or Computer section of Windows, follow the steps in this article:
    iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows

  • Why am I not about to use my Apple ID for iMessage? I have typed the password correctly and the only thing that appeared was "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again"

    I am not able to use my iMessage after updating to iOS 7.0.2. Although I have tried to sign in as many times as possible, a sign writing "could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again". My network bar is 4-5/5 but I still could not sign in.

  • I can no longer send or respond to email from my Firefox browser. I closed and sent from Internet explorer and it works fine. What changed? The only thing different this morning, I downloaded Adobe uprade?

    Question
    I can no longer send or respond to email from my Firefox browser. I closed and sent from Internet explorer and it works fine. What changed? The only thing different this morning, I downloaded Adobe uprade?

    I had this hotmail issue myself a while back. I Googled, scanned MS website, scanned MSN website, visited forums, couldn't figure it out. I tried Firefox and Opera and even changed the Opera mask setting from Opera to Internet Explorer. Nothing worked. My best guess was that I was signing on (with the new MSN Live as opposed to MSN Hotmail - the OLD interface) with the "Remember me on this computer?" box checked. I now make sure it is un-checked (which is not the default) and hotmail lets me in.
    Not exactly sure if that is the real remedy, but thot I'd throw the story your way just in case...

  • MacBook pro will not boot. I get the gray screen, an apple icon and spinning wheel. Tried to start in safe mode but get the same screen. The only thing different was that I loaded the zedge sync app yesterday. Now getting this problem.

    Macbook pro will not boot. I get the gray screen, an apple icon and spinning wheel. I tried to start in safe mode, but get this same screen. The only thing different is that I added the zedge update app to do a sync for adding ringtones to my apple cell phone. How can I get a good boot. I am fairly new to apple computer.

    Reset PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405 and then try a normal boot.
    Run the Startup Manager to select Startup disk:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1310
    If those did not work your disk may be sick or dying.  The top priority at this point is to make a backup copy of your data.
    Check the health of the disk.  Boot in Recovery Mode (Boot, Command-R).  Run Disk Utility.  Click on the upper left disk icon.  Does the S.M.A.R.T. status say “Verified”?  If not the disk/SSD is unhealthy and needs to be replaced.  Even if it does not show “Verified” you can still attempt a backup. 
    Click on the icon indented below, usually called “Macintosh HD” and Verify Disk.  If it finishes with a green “OK” message then all is well with the disk.  If it shows errors in red then you have found a problem to address once the system is backed up.  Do not attempt software repairs until you have secured the data.
    If the disk will not show up at all in Disk Utility as your ran the tests above then it may be dead or it may have a bad internal SATA cable.  A trip to an Apple store for confirmation would be in order.
    If you have an external disk drive you can use as a backup drive then do so.  If not Google “Hitachi USB 3.0 external hard drive 1TB” to purchase one or go to a brick-and-mortar store (including an Apple store) to pickup one.  Any 1 TB external drive will do.
    Assuming it is still breathing you can try to recover the data without booting from the sick disk. 
    Reformat the external disk.  (This will erase all data on the external disk.)
    Boot in Recovery Mode.  Start Disk Utility.  Plug in the new disk.  Select it’s disk Icon (the second one down, left justified). Select the Partition tab.
    Partition Layout > Single Partition
    Name: Emergency Recovery 1 (or whatever name you wish to use)
    Format: Mac OS Extended (journaled)
    Options… > GUID Partition Table > OK
    Apply
    Select the Restore tab.
    Drag the old system volume (Macintosh HD) to Source.
    Drag the new disk volume (Emergency Recovery 1) to Destination.
    Click on Restore.
    It may take a long time for the backup.
    If that will not complete post back for other emergency data recovery methods, including those from a brody.
    If the backup succeeds, use the First Aid tab in Disk Utility to select the old volume (Macintosh HD) and Repair Disk.  If it does not finish with a green OK message try to repair it once or twice more.  If it repairs with a green OK message, will it boot normally?  If not, boot from the Recovery Partition and reinstall OS X.
    If it is still not healthy, post back for further instructions.

  • Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7.  Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?
