A Folder "Apple Security_files" is on my desktop. where should I move it?

I have a powerbook G4 running OS X 10.4.6. I also have OS X 10.2.7 on an external hard drive. This is because my Epson perfection 3170 scanner will not work with 10.4 but did work with 10.2 and I'm trying (unsucessfully) to use it.
(But that is another topic) A folder named Apple Security_Files which has 13 gif files, 1 css file (default.css), and 5 png files (a.png thru a_005png) in it. I'm not sure if this folder came out of my 10.4 librays somewhere or my 10.2 library somewhere. It is the only folder with this name that spotlight finds on my system. WHERE SHOULD I MOVE IT TO TO GET IT OFF THE DESKTOP?
Thanks
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Not sure about the name "Apple Security_Files" - but here's a breakdown of the file formats you've noted:
gif = picture/image file
css = "style-sheet" for web page design
png = macromedia fireworks document
If I had to guess... this looks like some part of a web design project.
Hope this helps!

The New Istanbul Apple Store Frustrating... Where should I submit my complaint?

Hi,
The first Apple store in Istanbul had a grand opening last month. I was so happy like some other Apple users in Istanbul, because I have bought all of my Apple products from Apple Stores in the US. I have always been so much impressed of Apple's great customer satisfaction approach. Each time, when I got an issue and go to the Apple Store, I have always got out with a smilling face.
However, I have been experiencing serious problems since I upgraded my Iphone 4 to ios 7.1 . I went to the store in Istanbul (29th of May) and try to ask my question but unfortunately the employees seemed not happy with serving the customers. Finally I got a young rep working for Genius Bar. The whole exact conversation was exactly below:
Me: - Hi, I got a question about an upgrade issue for my Iphone 4 and I have been so frustrated. Could you please guide me?
Apple Employee- have you got an appointment?
Me: Nope. But I just need an answer and I may wait because I could not sort out in the last 4-5 days.
Apple Employee- I am sorry, first go online and get an appointment. Don't see these people waiting for genius bar? This is how it works here.
Me: I would like to wait till you guys are done and I would like to have my quick answer.
Apple Employee: Sorry, everyone here got some problems and they all took the appointment.By the way, I got an Iphone 4 and upgraded to newes IOS and got no problems.
Me: Okay. But I got problems, sorry for bringing problems to you. Can I get the appoinment here and can I wait here. It does not take weeks, right?
Apple Employee: At least 7 days.
Me: Are you kidding me? I was thinking to buy the new Iphone 5s and put my second sim on my iphone 4. Then I will be stepping out the store and go to Samsung Store , buy a new Galaxy.
Apple Employee: Sure... It is your choise sir. If you would like to buy Samsung.
Me: Could I talk to your supervisor?
Apple Employee: Yes, he is right next to me (he calls the supervisor. And the store is fully packed with customers and everyone hears all this tragic conversation)
Supervisor: Yes sir. My coleague is right. You should get an appointment and wait for approximately 7 days. By the way, your phone is out of warranty because one of the screws are not there.
Me: This phone has never been opened by anyone.
Supervisor: It is impossible, you opened the phone and lost the screw. So this phone is out of warranty.
Me: I am saying that this device has never been in the service, never touched. Moreover, my case is a software upgrade issue.
Supervisor: Sorry. If you would like to, you may contact Apple Customer Service.
I still feel so speechless and frustrated. The products in the store are great, design looks as same as other Apple Stores in the States but the employees are really problematic and tragic. I have never been insulted and humilated as a customer in my life.
Thanks Apple Store in Istanbul. I will tell everyone around me not to go there. But I am so so frustrated and would like to share my experince with someone who knows the real Apple Customer Satisfaction approach. I am so lost and don't know what to do.

Supervisor: It is impossible, you opened the phone and lost the screw. So this phone is out of warranty.Wow, I think that supervisor may need some training. On something that small, a defective screw could fall out, and be missed the moment it is outside its case. That in my humble opinion is not something most users could or would notice. Talk about minutia of details. Now if the moment they bought the phone the cover seemed a bit loose, that would be noticeable, but only if the screw was in an important place to keep it together. If there are at least 2 screws elsewhere, the looseness of the case may never happen. Better evidence the phone was opened would be needed, such as something out of place inside the phone. Without having an appointment to visually inspect inside the phone, you can't really tell for certain it wasn't just a defective screw.

About to install iTunes, where should i move my music folder?

So i am about to install iTunes and wanted to know if i should move my music flder to a certain location/folder?
If i don't have to move my music folder then i am assuming that iTunes will find the folder and make copies of my music?
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

You don't need to move anything. When you install iTunes it will create a number of default files and folders in default locations. The iTunes folder (which will contain the iTunes library files and the iTunes Music folder) will be created in C:\Username\Music in Windows Vista. When you install iTunes for the first time you'll be asked if you want the program to scan you computer for music files to add to the library or if you want to add them yourself: Adding Content to iTunes

Stray "Foley" folder appeared on my desktop. Where should it be?

Stray "Foley" folder on my desktop containing Apple CoreAudio Format sound effect files. Where should it be? Utilities? I've no earthly idea.

It belongs in /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects/ . Use the Go to Folder command in the Finder's Go menu to get there.

Is there a way I can create a folder for storage and put on desktop?

What you can do is move them into a sub folder where they are all grouped into one icon. Gets them off your screen, sort of.

Drag it to the trash icon in your dock. This is a disk image, and you need to "eject" it, to get rid of it.

Is there an Apple Calendar for your comuter desktop?

Is there an apple calendar for your computer desktop that syncs with your IPhone, similar to Palm's calendar?
Thanks

No - not for a Windows PC but there are no iPhone applications available to be added to a computer - Mac or PC regardless.
The iPhone syncs with select applications - such as iCal for calendar events on a Mac and with Outlook on a Windows PC.

Bin folder on Desktop - Where does it belong?

While moving and transfering files from another computer, somehow a "bin" folder ended up on the Desktop. When I open it, "Kind" shows it to be a Unix Executable File. None of the 37 files gives a hint as to any special folder that it might belong to. Some of the files are named: bash, cat, chmod, cp, domainname, echo, kill, etc. What has happened? What do I do with it? How can I find out what it belongs to?

Neil, I am not sure I understand. If, under Devices, I click on Macintosh HD, it shows a bin folder which is grayed out. Opening this shows the same files as the bin folder on the Desktop. Should the bin folder in the Macintosh HD be grayed out? Should I move the one on the Desktop into the Macintosh HD? If I delete the one on the Desktop (which is not grayed out), will it also take the grayed out file away from the Macintosh HD? I don't want to do anything that will cause a problem.
Thanks

I purchased OS X Lion on my laptop and if I use the same username on my desktop it should just download not make me pay again, yet it is still saying "BUY APP" not "INSTALL." What do I do?

Hi...
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

Attempted to burn, folder went poof. What happened and where is it?

I had a folder called Documents with many files. I wanted to save it on a disc. When I dragged the folder to the disc on the desktop it went poof -- gone. Gone from my home folder. Gone from my hard drive. Fortunately, all on LaCie, and all in Word program. I resurrected the folder by using LaCie. But now I'm wondering, what did I do wrong and where is the original Document folder?
Many thanks.

Elaine .... You did not state where you draged the Document folder from.... I am assuming you dragged from the Dock and it went poof !!!!
The Document folder should be here...
/Users/(your user name)/Documents

HT2311 After waiting 27 minutes while the new iTunes supposedly downloaded onto my computer, the Finder window did not appear, and the iTunes.mpkg icon didn't appear on my desktop (where downloads usually go). What do I do?

After waiting 27 minutes while the new iTunes supposedly downloaded onto my computer, the Finder window did not appear, and the iTunes.mpkg icon didn't appear on my desktop (where downloads usually go). I also looked for the new iTunes by clicking on my Hard Drive icon but didn't see it there either. I only see the icon for the old iTunes. What do I do?

The exclamation mark means that the app has lost the link to the actual file.
First step: try and make sure the iPhoto Library is working correctly:
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

HT2509 Where should I keep my fonts folder on my HD

Where should I keep my fonts folder on my HD?

I assume you mean third party fonts you've added? If so, pretty much anywhere you want.
There are already three Fonts folders on the hard drive they're at:
/System/Library/Fonts/
/Library/Fonts/
~/Library/Fonts/
The first obviously belongs to the system. If you don't know what you're doing in that folder, leave it alone. The second is the Library you see when you double click the icon of the hard drive on your desktop. Any fonts in that folder can be used by any user account. The last refers to the Fonts folder of the active user. That is, whoever is logged in at the moment. Only that user can access fonts within their account.
It's not a good idea to activate hundreds, and especially not thousands of fonts at a time. They take up space in RAM when active. They more you have open, the less RAM is available for other apps. Long font lists in apps also very much slow down those menus.
I would create a folder for your fonts anywhere outside of the three locations I listed above. You can put is right at the root of the drive is you want, next to Applications, Users, etc. You can even call the folder Fonts if you want to. OS X will pay no attention to it, despite the name. It only automatically looks into the three main Fonts folders.
From there, you can activate fonts within that folder using Font Book, or any other third party font manager. If you're using Font Book, I strongly suggest using Library sets rather than normal sets. With the former, the fonts stay where they are (activated in place) rather than being copied into your user account (a waste of time and disk space).

Where should itunes folder be located windows 8

where should my itunes folder be when i installed on pc i put it here Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\ put i found another itunes folder in mydoculments folder and it says that is where it was put after itunes 11. so which one do i need

See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
It may be that you are seeing an alternate path provided for backwards compatibility and there is really only one iTunes folder. The one you should be using is C:\Users\<User>\Music\iTunes. The "My" or "User's" bit gets added on to the name of the Music folder depending on which user you are logged in as, but in reality the folder is simply called Music. Windows Vista and susequent versions attempt to support references to ...<Profile Folder>\My Documents\My Music and redirect to ...<Profile Folder>\Music.

I have some loops from acid 5 which I have dragged in a folder to the loop browser. Some of them retain the folder name in the View: and some don't. I have had some that seem to go in but I can't find them. Where should I look?

I have some loops from acid 5 which I have dragged in a folder to the loop browser. Some of them retain the folder name in the View: and some don't. I have also had some that seem to go in but I can't find them. If I try to add them again, I get a msg that they are already there. Where should I look?

It may be best to recreate the folder and the smart playlists from scratch.
