When I insert a SD card in the side of my Mac it does not open in IPhoto it opens in desktop. it used to open in IPhoto..what gives?

Same thing is happening to me but I am using a card reader. Can't get any explanation besides checking the preferences. I can import by downloading to desktop then importing to iphoto but never had to do that before.

When I insert an SD card into the iMac nothing happens. It worked fine until today, I double clicked on the card icon on the desk top and it disappeared! Any suggestions?

When I insert an SD card into the iMac nothing happens. It worked until today, when I double clicked on the SD card icon on the desktop and then it disappeared! Cannot find in "Finder". iPhoto does not open upon inserting card. Reformatted card with device (camera). Used Time machine to restart computer before the double click occurence...did not lhelp. Any suggestions?

Have a look in Finder Preferences: Click on the desktop, Finder>Finder Preferences.General tab - is there a tick in "External Disks'? If not, tick it.

Many folks have reported that this is true. However, the charge is not taken to the second step of completing the charge and the $1 revolves back to your account.

Please, the battery of my mac air does not last more than two hours, it's been over 30 days I sent for technical assistance and nothing! I am very disappointed with the mac air, I had a very different expectation of apples products!!

Maybe the problem is not your MB Air......
Try these:
Make sure bluetooth is turned off if you're not using it.
Set your screen brightness to 4 bars.
See what's loading in your login items. Delete the ones you don't need.
Open Activity Monitor - under All Processes see what's using most of your CPU's resources.
Highlight the ones with the highest %CPU and hit quit process.
Remember that when Apple says that your battery should last 7 hours, they tested it just browsing the web and not have anything open in the background and screen is set at 50% brightness.

The "always match my default message font" option in the Signature preferences from Mac Mail does not work if e-mail is received in other Mail Software. How can I make it work?

I found this plugin which solved pretty much all of my mail font rendering problems. It is designed for Lion, so don't know whether it will work but thought I would offer it up.

I have just purchased the new iPad with the camera connection kit. I just want to be able insert my SD card into the Pad and view my photos, not import them.Can this be done and how? Please advise. Thank you.

See this article: iPad: Using the iPad Camera Connection Kit
No, this canot be done, afaik. When your camera or card is connected, you will see the thumbnails in the camera pane, but not full size preview. So to browse your photos on the iPad you will need to import them to your camera roll. But you need not delete them from the camera or card after importing, so you might simply import selected photos to your camera roll from the camera grid and then delete them again from the camera roll after importing and browsing, without removing them from the card/camera.

Are you putting in the address where the bank sends the monthly statement?
Apple's servers are very picky about the format of the address. If you live in the USA, then the server is expecting the style that the US Postal Service uses. One way to do this is to use the USPS ZIP Code lookup service;
https://tools.usps.com/go/ZipLookupAction!input.action
Enter the address to look up the ZIP code and then copy the exact USPS output into your iTunes account information.

When I try to send photos over the internet now, it says it does not recognize my account or pssword. I have never had this problem before, so what can I do to fix it?

When I try to email photos from iphoto, I get a message that says it does not recognize my account or user name. I have not had a problem with this before, so why now? How do I fix this?

iPhoto Menu ->
Preferences ->
Accounts ->
Delete and recreate your email settings.
Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

HT3964 Resetting the smc for my Mac pro does not work...the power still does not turn on....any suggestions?

I am unable to power up my Mac pro desktop. I have tried resenting the smc and still does not work...any suggestions?

The warranty is worldwide. You should not need your receipt, Apple will have a purchase record - or at least a manufacturing date record and you should not be even close to the end of the one year warranty.
In Thailand the support phone number is 001800 4412904
In Canada call English: 1-800-263-3394 or French: 1-800-263-3394
Are you using the Canadian support site? www.apple.com/ca

When I try to sign in to Flickr, a new window opens that should contain a place to log in. The window is empty. This does not happen with IE, I can sign in easily using IE.

I signed out of my flickr account. When I tried to sign in, the window opens that should contain the fields for sign in. This window is blank. I figure I must have something enabled/not enabled. Any input is appreciated.

Glad you seem to have sorted things out.
The warning about the warranty is light hearted, I think at one stage it warned "here be dragons" but also intended to make us think as it warns that making changes may produce problems.

I have forgotten my password to get into my mac bokok pro. I have used my iPad to reset the password but my Mac book does not recognise the reset password.

I have reset my password using my iPad. Why does my Mac book not recognise it to allow me to log in to it?

What password did you change and what password is your Mac requesting.
Without details all you will get is guesses.

Why is it that my powerbook does not recognize when i insert external hard drives through the USB 2.0 port

when i insert an external harddrive through the usb port, my mac doesnot recognise that its even there but when a flash disk is inserted, it recognises it perfectly.
why does that happen?

Michael is on the right track. Some external hard drives lacking their own power supply simply cannot get enough power from a single USB port. It is most noticeable in the "name brand" drive that the office supply and computer superstores put on sale every other week. Their chipsets seem to be better optimized for Windows than Macs.
Flash drives work because the don't have a power-hugry motor that must turn.
There are two easy and inexpensive cures that allow you to keep your current drive:
get a "Y-cable" that let you connect one drive to two of the computers UWB ports. Example:1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
get a self-powered USB hub. It has a separate power supply that boosts what goes to the drive. Example: Macally TriHub - 4 Port Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Hub for Mac & PC
If you need the computer and drive to work together in an environment lacking a power source for the hub, and the y-cable isn't an option because you have too few available USB ports, then your only option is to replace the current drive with one better optimized for Macs, like these:

This particular one has the option of running on power from the computer's USB ports or, with an optional power supply, wall power. A good compromise for both remote and desktop use.
