After importing bookmarks from another computer, I have two copies of all of them: how can I delete the 'right' copy?

I successfully imported my bookmarks from my old to new Macbook. But now there are two copies of everything, listed one after the other. I tried to delete one set, but only deleted the ones organized into folders. There are still doubles of a lot of bookmarks. Now when I bookmark new pages on the new computer, it adds them to the end of one list of bookmarks but not the other and it's the list that doesn't have the folders from the old computer. How can I delete one set of bookmarks, but keep the set that it's adding on to and keep my folders?

I think in this case you need a addon:

I'm embarrassed to ask this: when I click to initiate a new email message in the "From" box it automatically chooses the wrong email address (I have three but use one mainly). How can I get the right choice to appear automatically?

I'm embarassed to ask this: when I click on the new mail icon to write a new email message, in the box "FROM" appears the wrong email address: I have three but mainly use one. How can I correct this so that the right email address appears in the "FROM" box?

I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
Repeat for other accounts.

After restoring my 3Gs I now have duplicate--sometimes triplicate calendar entries. How can I delete the duplicates from the phone?

On the info tab I'm told that my calendar is being synced through MobileMe and directly with the computer resulting in duplicated data. How do I prevent that? And how do I now delete the duplicates from the phone?
I notice that the entries from the computer show "Busy" in the status while the others--probably from MobileMe-- do not.

Solved the problem...I think. In the Calendar app I clicked on the Calendars button. There I found, under Show All Calendars "From My Mac." There I found not only the calendars as they appear in iCal and MobileMe, but the same items with brackets containing my MobileMe address plus other info that isn't visible enough to see what it is (looks like "@calendar).

I was wondering if I import my bookmarks from another computer will this overwrite the bookmarks I already have?

I was wondering if I import bookmarks from another computer will they overwrite bookmarks I already have? Is there a way to prevent this?

It depends upon the method used to import the bookmarks.
Firefox can import from two formats, if you import the JSON format it will overwrite the bookmarks that already exist. If you import from the HTML format it will add the bookmarks that are imported to those that already exist.
To use the HTML format see the following links.

However after part of the Itune update completed a message came up on the screen
saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.
Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

If the application came with an uninstaller, use it. You can also check the developers site for instructions.
But for the most part, just drag the application to the trash. Some applications come with uninstallers under "options" on the installer.
The reason for this is that in Mac OS X most associated files are kept in the application package itself. If you choose any app then "control-click" on it, you can choose "Show package contents" from the contextual menu and you will see all the associated items.
You can also do a Finder or Spotlight search for any other items but they will probably only be prefs which will do no harm and don't take up much room.
These are ususally just plist files in Users/yourname/Library/Preferences . Also some apps will install files in Users/yourname/Library/Application Support. (To reveal this hidden Library go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library"
Note: Some apps may also put a file in /Library/Startup Items or SystemPreferences >> Users & Groups >> Login items. (So, it worth a look here too)

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file

Hey Fabrizio,
You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
Do you get the 'download' prompt?
Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab.
Please try the same using a different browser and check.
Hope to hear from you.
Regards,
Anubha

TS4124 After uploading all music to iCloud can i delete the music from my laptop?

Hello! My first visit, and hope I am doing this correctly.
I have two two questions.
1: Having uploaded all of my music to iCloud and iMatch, from Laptop running Windows Vista, to iPad and iphone 3GS can I safely remove the music from my Laptop and just recall it from 'Cloud and Match' as required? Rhereby saving memory on my laptop.
2: When uploading my music to iCloud and iMatch I noticed that allmusic was removed from iphone, thereby, freeing up memory BUT the music remains on my iPad at all times. How can I get the music to sit in the cloud and not on my ipad?
Thanking you, you clever ones!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can remove the content from the laptop, but if anything in iTunes match is removed from the iTunes store, you won't be able to redownload it. Hopefully such instances will be minimal.
Payout can delete anything on the iPad by swiping it and tapping the delete button. I'm not sure why it left everything on the iPad when you turned on iTunes match, it did that on my iPhone too the first time, I can't recall what I did, but it was removed at some point.

You cannot transfer from the iPhone to the computer.
You must move the contents of your old computer to the new one directly.
Use an external hard drive perhaps or restore your old computer backup to your new computer.
The iPhone is not the source of your data, that is the computer, the iPhone is only a slave device to iTunes.
