After installing Mavericks I can't copy music files to an external music server, worked fine before mavericks

After installing Mavericks, I can't copy or move files to a music server running Vortexbox(Fedora Linux based). I get a cannot perform operation, you do not have permissions for some items. The permission arrow in get info shows I have both read and write permission. I am connecting to the server fine, just can't copy files.

Hey tamckellar,
It sounds like you want to move your iTunes Media folder. The following article outlines how to do so:
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
If your hard drive is nearly full after loading all your music and other media into iTunes, or if you just want to move all those music and media files to another hard drive on your system, here's a way to make the move while retaining all your playlists, ratings, and play history.
Thanks,
Matt M.

My trackpad worked fine before mavericks update.

My trackpad worked fine before mavericks update. Now two finger scrolling doesnt work. I have read numerous things related to this and there has not been a single fix, besides returning it to the apple store. If it worked fine prior to the update, logic dictates the update has messed up drivers. Logic dictates this when it works perfectly under mac 10.7 and not 10.9. Logic dictates it is Mavericks when everyone is complaining about it being Mavericks. Whenever I am in a app that is separate from the finder/desktop it doesn't work (Chrome, Safari, itunes, appstore, etc). To scroll all I can do is use the arrow keys or three finger dragging to highlight down the page. I have read a number of fixes, but none are fixes. A fix entails an update that fixes the driver related issue. Not to remove the battery from the mobo (I have tried this, it doesn't work). Certainly not to go to the Apple store, when it isn't a problem with hardware, but with software. btw, I bought this at Microcenter, not the apple store. This is a Late 2011 15in macbook with 4gb of ram and a 5400rpm 500gb hdd, which is pretty ****** for $2300 (2000 plus 300 extended warranty), I didn't buy this, it was a gift for graduation. Anyways people have told me it was the standard of the time, it was the standard back in 2008/2009. I had a 15in MSI with 4gb of ram and a 1tb 7200rpm drive, and was about $1200. I wish I had not sold it, as it wasn't defective. It had vista though, which was truly apalling, more so than Mavericks. Please fix this apple via software update, if I have to exchange this I am going to be forced to pay about 400 in difference for todays comparable laptop. Not acceptable, when I just bought a tv for someone on Christmas, as I don't have the means. Please get back to me and the rest of your customers asap. btw, this is my first support request ever of you guys. This was an issue with 10.9.1, not 10.9....

This is a bug and it's caused when you swipe between pages with two fingers.
How to fix:
Quit Chrome.
Open System Prefences.
Choose View > Trackpad, or click Trackpad.
Click the More Gestures tab.
Disable "Swipe between pages".
Restart Chrome.
Additional Information
If you own an Apple Magic Mouse, I would also disable the same gesture within the Mouse preferences pane.

IMac is not booting - How can I copy my files to an external drive

Hello,
my iMac (late 2009 model, OS X 10.7.4) is not booting anymore. The iMac stopps booting at the Apple logo and the spinning gear.
I tried a couple of things that I found here in the community but nothing worked.
start in safe mode => iMac shuts off after a couple of seconds
start with safe boot (Shift-Command-V) => I'll get a couple of error messages, e.g. disk0s2: I/O error. SATA WARNING: Enable Drive PHY PM failed
reset the NVRAM/PRAM => no change
But when I try to get access on the HD with the FireWire Target Disk Mode, I can see the following folders: Applications, Library, System, Users. But the statusbar shows 0 items for each folder and it shows that the HD has 650 GB available. I have the original 1TB HD. When I try to start OS X from an external drive I can see the same folders. I tried Data Rescue 3 to scan my files, but the software stopps with an error.
My TimeMachine backup was not working, so I have no actual backup and need to find a solution to copy my files to an external drive.
Instead of Data Rescue 3, I can use TechTools Pro 6 alternatively.
Would Data Rescue 3 find files if I erase and create a new partition on the HD?
What I found out so far, it looks like a corrupted file system.
Have anyone an idea or a tip, how I can copy my files?
I would be more than happy if someone can help me.
Thank you very much for all answers in advance.

The internal drive is failing, or has failed. You may not be able to save the data.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to fully boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot into Recovery (command-R at startup) or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
How to back up and restore your files
2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

TS1277 after installing itunes, my computer won't recognize my cdrom/burner any longer. Worked ok before and I have uninstalled itunes and it works again and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again. I have also went into registry files and deleted

After installing itunes, my desktop computer doesn't recognize my internal cd rom/burner. I removed itunes and it works ok and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again. I went into the windows registry files and deleted the lower filter which is one correction for this and it worked ok until the next itunes upgrade and now it won't work again. If anyone knows what to do please let me know. My device manager shows a code "10"

That suggests an AFS.sys issue. But we'd better doublecheck.
Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". (If you're running iTunes 11.0.x you'll need to bring up your menu bar first to see the Help menu.) Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.)

Some music files missing in iTunes folder, yet work fine in iTunes

I am using current version of iTunes on OSX 10.7.5.
Let's use a song for example: Piano Man - by Billy Joel on the Greatest Hits album
In iTunes, this song works fine and all songs are there.
If I go to finder>user>music>itunes>itunes music>Billy Joel>Greatest Hits> ..... and not all the songs are there, maybe just a couple. We will say Piano Man is missing right now.
If I go to iTunes and click on Piano Man> Show in Finder.... it takes me to the mentioned folder and then suddenly some more songs appear including Piano Man.
I don't like this because my backup hard drive is not backing up all my music, some of it is missing. What's going on?

Found the issue:
At first glance my itunes music folder looks normal, but after some careful reading of the location data...it turns out all of my music is also stored in a subfolder "MUSIC" in with all the artist names. I found this after discussing with a genius today while having my battery replaced. Together we found the issue.
How? iTunes at some point started making a MUSIC and MOVIES and maybe some other folders in the iTunes folder. When I redid my library some time ago, it must have changed the directory and copied all my music to the user/music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Music folder. This would also explain why I found that sometimes my library took up more data than I had expected. iTunes would say 45 GB but the folder would say 90GB.

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

After installing Lion I can't I boot from the Techtools CD.

After installing Lion I can't I boot from the Techtools CD. I have purchased the upgrade for Photoshop CS5 because CS2 does not launch in Lion 10.7.3. However I need to get the serial number for CS2 for the upgrade. I have waited over 30 minutes for the boot but never get more than the Apple logo. Any ideas anyone?

Boot disks can't change when the firmware changes, lock you out.
Techtools obviously uses Linux as a boot OS, so you need a Lion version.

How to revert your Mac to Snow Leopard

After installing icloud, I can't open Photoshop CS, please help. I am an artist and need photoshop to work.

After installing icloud, I can't open Photoshop CS, please help. I am an artist and need photoshop to work.

Did you upgrade to Lion just before setting up iCloud? that's more likely to be the issue. PhotoShop CS2 is a PPC program and won't run on Lion - on Snow Leopard it requires Rosetta to emulate PPC, and this is not included in Lion. CS3 and lateer apparently work though with issues.
Click on the program's icon in the Finder and hit command-i. Near the top of the pane it will say 'Kind': if it says 'PowerPC' then this is the problem. It will not run on Lion and there is no workaround. You will need to revert to Snow Leopard (you could install this on an external disk and start up from that).

After installing Acrobat 8, can only open Word in safe mode

After installing Acrobat 8, can only open Word in safe mode. If I delete my customized Normal.dot, then all is well. However I want the macros available from the customized Normal.dot. I tried switching Templates after opening Word and it immediately triggers an error message: "Word has encountered a problem and needs to close." It then recovers all my recent documents even though they were fine, had no need to be saved. Thinking that Normal.dot had been corrupted, I went back to the original M$ Normal.dot and re-created my macros and saved as a new Normal.dot. The next time I open Word, I get the error message.
I have a template with only one macro. It does not cause this problem. The template I prefer has 3 macros and I will need to create more.
Acrobat 8 Prof. with all updates
Windows XP
Word 2003 SP 3 with updates
Thank you in advance for any help you may give.

I am told by my company's IT folks that the problem resides with Office 2003 sp3. If you remove SP3 and revert to SP2, the issue vanishes, so they say (I have not done it yet).
M$ is possibly ignoring the issue permanently, since they are on a new initiative to unseat PDF in favor of their own document format they're working on presently. I've sent a million error reports to them and....NOTHING.
Good luck.
PS- if you've found another solution, please send me an e-mail @ [email protected]

My Mac won't mount my external HDD after installing Lion - What can I do?

My Mac won't mount my external HDD after installing Lion - What can I do?
HDD: Verbatim 3.5'' External HDD eSATA & USB 2.0 #48802
I can not find it in Disc Utilities - so I can not repair it.
I also haven't found any Driver for the HDD to do an update.
My Mac is running on the most recent updates of OS Lion.
The HDD worked before. It contains my former Time-Mashine Backups. I would like to use this drive again. It isn't very old yet.
It would be much appreciated if anyone could help.
Cheers,
Yves

OK, try restarting in Safe Mode and if that doesn't work try resetting the SMC and PRAM.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

After installing the latest of iTunes the original files for almost 300 songs cannot be found for syncing to my iPod. The files are songs that were bought from iTunes, and copied into iTunes from CDs.

After installing the latest of iTunes the original files for almost 300 songs cannot be found for syncing to my iPod. The files are songs that were bought from iTunes, and copied into iTunes from CDs.

Apparently, security programs like Macafee and Norton view Itunes updates as new programs and block then from access. If you add Itunes to the list of exemptions, it solves the problem.
