Adding 'Show new posts' and 'mark all topics as read' links

I would request the admins to add those links even in the sub-forums and within the threads as well. I always use those and find that I have to keep backing out everytime I go into a thread. I don't think it should be a huge deal to add a couple of links. That area is void of anything in the sub-forums anyway.
Any +1s ??
No ...don't give just +1s ...its against the rules

I agree !
I have always missed the "mark topics as read" on this forum.

[suggestion] "Mark all topics as read" - "Mark listed topics as read"

I spend a lot of time browsing the forums, and I've come to use the "Show new posts since last visit" function to keep up with discussions. This function works best for me when combined with the "Mark all topics as read" function. To see what threads had activity since my last check, I "Show new posts...", proceed to reading the interesting ones, and finally "Mark all topics as read". The amount of unread posts, of course, is proportional to how long since my last visit, and so it takes some time for me to catch up after some absence.
Problem: During the time I spend reading new stuff there are often now posts added, so clicking "Mark all..." isn't really what I want to do.
So naturally I "Show new..." again to be sure. This works, but there is always a slight possibility that one gets added during the .5 secs it takes for me to click both links. Call me obsessive-compulsive, but it would feel good to be able to be certain.
Does anyone recognize this rationale? Are there existing solutions to this, maybe a non-web frontend or some forum feature I'm unaware of? Anyhow, if "Mark all topics as read" were replaced by "Mark listed topics as read" in the "Show new posts since last visit" view, there would be no uncertainty.
Any thoughts?

My browsing pattern:
1. "Show Your Posts" - see if anyone has replied to threads I've previously posted in
2. "Show New Post" - read all new posts
I could bookmark them, but it's a pain to sync bookmarks across Work PC, Work Laptop, Home Desktop and Home Laptop... Maybe I'm just being lazy. But hell, if I don't ask, I don't stand any chance of getting it moved
Even an extra <br> between them, or move them to one line and separate with ' - ' would help...

Then you need to contact iTunes support.
There is probably a problem with your credit card or AppleID. If there is an account security problem, only iTunes support will be able to help you.

Is it possible to just show new posts of selected forums?

Hi there,
is there a possibility to just show new posts of selected forums? At vbulletin forums you can do this via search.php?include=1,2,3 so I tried search.php?action=show_new&fid=20,30,33,47,42,24,50 here. But it only searches for the new posts of forum with the id 20 and ignores all the other parameters.. Any ideas? Did I overlook this function anywhere?
Thanks in advance

So yeah it's inconvenient because my mailbox will explode
Question to the administration: Is it possible to implement this feature? As for now I can search each forum for new posts with search.php?action=show_new&fid=20 for example. So it shouldn't be that complex to implement a search with multiple forum IDs like search.php?action=show_new&fid=20,21,22,23?
Would be really great..
To the suggestion with "New" threads or new posts in threads (search.php?action=show_new): It's a lot to search through and I don't want to spend too much time for it

Help please.connected my current iphone to i tunes it syncd old contacts from previous job to new phone and deleted all my new ones,

Help please.
Connected my current iphone to i tunes. it syncd old contacts from previous job and previous phone to new phone and deleted all my new ones. tried to do back up from earlier restore in i tunes but there only seem to be back ups from my old phone not the new one prior to its first sync...

thanks for your reply and input but, Im not sure if it was former or latter that I did, however I do know that I named this latest i phone differently and would have been OK with and expected expected old contacts to be added to the new ones I have recently added directly onto the new phone since I have had it rather than just the old one. I did try the undue/ unsync but this just seemed to remove all the old backed up ones just added leaving contacts empty? Clearly its my error, but what can be done to restore setting back to time before I connected today? earlier reset points on itunes show as 2 years ago and relate to old phone.

How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another? I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
the start of that tree is /
so, if you were to do:
cd /
(cd means change directory)
it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
cd /Users
will bring you to where all the users are.
to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
ls means list files/directories
so:
cd /Users
ls -la
(the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose)) this flag is very optional.
you will see
fred
user2
for example.
if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
for example:
cd /Users/user2/Desktop
Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
ls -la
you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
cd /
cd Users
cd user2
cd Desktop
this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
/Users/user2
which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
so in your case.
sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
should work
Remember that if you start a path with the character / it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
so
cd /Users/fred
is not the same as
cd Users/fred
unless you were in / already
i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
to simplify, think of it that / means C:\ on windows
you can't go any higher than C:\ (in a way)
if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
pwd
it will tell you where you are.
for example:
cd /
pwd
this shows /
cd Users
pwd
this now shows /Users
cd /System/Library
pwd will show /System/Library
cd /
cd /Users
cd fred
cd Library
pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
ls -la (this shows all the files where you are)
if you see myfile in the list
do a pwd
whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
whatever pwd returned / myfile
I hope that makes sense.

Can I create a new account and keep all of my purchases and downloads?

Can I create a new account and keep all of my old content? Recently got divorced and share the itunes account with my ex. I want a new account but do not want to lose all of my old content. Is this possible?

Kmiller,
Get a copy of the entire iTunes library and copy it to the computer that you will be using from now on.
iTunes Plus songs will still be playable, as will any "normal" MP3s that were purchased from Amazon or ripped from CD.
Any "protected" content from the iTunes Store, such as movies, shows, or pre-2009 songs, will not be playable. If you need to replace any such items with playable copies, a cost will be incurred. Make sure to account for this in the property settlement.

I bought games and music on my ipod touch and then bought a new mac, but i updated my ipod on the new mac and lost all of my games and music and they arent on my computer or my ipod touch:( The apps i bought are not on my old computer either!! please help

- You can redownload yur apps at no additional cost. See:
How to redownload purchased apps from the App Store
- You only get one download of music and it is up to you to make a backup. However, sometimes if you explain what happens the iTunes store may allow a redownload of music. You can contact them by starting here and selecting the appropriate topic:

IOS 4 And Marking All E-Mail as Read

Hello,
Does anyone know if the "Mark all E-mail as Read" feature is going to make its way into iOS 4 / iPhone 4? I keep trying to find a full list of features for iOS 4, but all I see is buttons that say "learn more" and point at the same page which says the mail client was updated to support new exchange server, threading, and MORE FEATURES, which I can't find explained anywhere.
The only way I'll consider buying an iPhone is if I can mark all e-mail as read within 1-3 taps. Thus far, I can't find any indication that this is actually the case.
Thanks.

errr no...it is not a trivial issue, it is a real one.
I get 100-150 emails today, including a lot of spam which is a never ending task to control. I like to be able to scan email subject lines, choose the mails I want to look at, and then mark all as read. The Blackberry has a feature to do this with 2 clicks.
I have just got my first iphone, the iphone4, and am absolutely lost for words that there is no "mark all mail as read" function.
Telling folks to move from POP3 to IMAP is complete tosh. I mention this, as this appears to be a stock answer on some other forums. Why should you have to change your mail accounts /set up forwarding etc., just because you have changed phones?
Come on apple, less of the BS fluff apps. Give us proper control over our email please ! Unbelievable.

We just added a new printer and bluetooth connection to our iMac. Now iTunes does not recognize our iPads as devices. Have already tried restarting everything. Any other suggestions?

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

The music sync is one one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?

I got a new computer and now all my music is gone. how do i transfer my music from my iPod touch to my new computer. right now when i plug it in, it says if i sync, i will lose everything on my itouch... PLEASE help!

I just simply want to get my music from my itouch to my computer. I now have a iphone and it would be nice to put some of that music on my phone as well.
Hope someone can help me!!!

While that may work9I do not think it will) with iTunes purchased music it will not work for other music.
- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.

It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.
