Any way to get rEFIt to show the Recovery HD as one of its normal options

To get ready for Lion, I uninstall rEFIt because I read about supposed incompatabilities. Well, I've seemed to have worked thru Lion's idocyncracies (and moreso Boot Camp"s problems), so I'm ready to add rEFIt back into the mix. Although it installs without problems, a normal boot into rEFIt shows only the Mac and Windows slice of the pie, not the new Recovery HD partition that Lion creates. if I hold down "option" while rEFIt boots, I get an entry called "rEFIt", one for "Windows" and one for the "Recovery HD" (along with my 3 external FW bootable drives). I'd really like rEFIt to list the Recovery HD as part of its normal operation.
Does anyone know how to get rEFIt to recognize the hidden Recovery HD? Maybe a change in a rEFIt script or the Recovery HD partition itself?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, the rEFIt author hasn't been around for over a year. So it's now a community project in all sense of the words.

Yes, if you have iCloud set up on your phone and computer, then reminders will be synced through iCal.

I have an iPod whose contents I want to transfer to a newer Ipod. At some stage I lost the music files from my library. Is there any way to get them back from the older iPod and put them onto the newer one again? I stupidly synced the wrong one.

Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives ? If not then you could have a look to see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

I upgraded to Ios5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up. I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
Any ideas how I can do this?

I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:

Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

Is there any way to get Mail to use the Inbox as the Sent folder?

This may sound like a silly question, but I have an IMAP account with over a hundred nested folders. I've tried using rules to sort email that comes in, but honestly? It's more trouble than it's worth. Generally, I leave emails in my Inbox until I've dealt with them, and then I sort them into the appropriate folder.
Unfortunately, this means that I've then got to go and do the same thing with the message that I've just sent—which I sometimes (often) forget to do. I then end up with hundreds and hundreds of messages in the Sent folder that need to be hooked up with their respective originals. Bleh.
Does anyone know if there's a way to get both the original message and the response to end up in the same folder automatically? Mail doesn't allow you to use the Inbox as anything but the Inbox—it's the root directory for the mailbox.
Anyone?
BTW, I'm posting this here because I have Tiger at work, where this is more of a problem, though I've got Leopard (and soon Snow Leopard) at home.

Go easy—I've been using Macs since 1984 and have only used Microsoft's bloatware when work obliges me to. (I talked the boss who insisted that we run all of our email and calendars from an Access server into running OS X Server; Entourage went away, and life is much better. Word is still part of my everyday grind because of change tracking, but I have hopes for Pages.) I've used any number of email clients over the years, and Mail is my app of choice for many reasons.
Nonetheless, a useful feature is a useful feature, even if it comes from Redmond. It's not 1996 any more—Macs aren't the downtrodden Rebel Alliance and Microsoft isn't the Empire.
It seems to me that—especially with an IMAP account—you're not dealing with something intrinsic in the structure of the emailing system, since the folder structure doesn't even reside on the client computer (except as a mirror).
I suppose that I could use a rule to shunt all email for that account into a single folder and then use that same folder as the Sent folder. I'd need to create the same rule on my various Macs (and punt on my iPhone)... but I suppose that would work. But I'm still not sure why a more elegant solution isn't possible.

Is there any way to get accurate framing using the iPhone 5 camera?

The iPhone 5 has a 16:9 screen, yet the photos are still produced in a 4:3 ratio. So what you see on the screen while framing the shot with the native camera app is not the same as the photo you end up with on your camera roll.
Is there any way to fix this? I want my photos to look exactly like how they appear on the screen before I hit the shutter.

I just realized this just now cause there is always some extra frame added when I review my pics on camera roll. This site might illustrate the problem further..
http://blog.crushapps.com/2012/09/with-the-iphone-5s-camera-app-what-you-see-is- not-what-you-get/
The only solution Ive found is to use an ap Like Camera Asesome or Kitcam App they do use a 4:3 framing and take pics of exactly what you see on screen..
However, I feel this is a design flaw by apple, you should be able to take a pic exactly to what you see on screen... I dont care if there is a black bar on top or in bottom(or both) on screen, rather than having an overscan of what your actually are saving on your phone. And its completely ridicoulous cause images appear with black bars when you review them on Camera Roll where the overscan would be nice (estetically wise , and a double click would reframe to what you actually took)
Hope this answers your question..

Any way to get imessages to show as texts when looking at my bill? (and yes I know how to turn off imessages)

I'd like imessages to show as texts on bill.

As mentioned...the only way to do it would be to turn off iMessage. Otherwise, it isn't a SMS text that VZW can charge you for (or deduct from your texting plan) so it will not show on your bill. If you're wanting to do this in order to monitor someone else's iMessage usage I don't think there is a way to do so...iMessage isn't an option in the restrictions menu so I don't think you could even get your hands on the other device and put the restriction on it if you wanted to shut off the iMessage capability so they could only send text messages (if they had the code to change restrictions then that wouldn't work anyway because they could go back and change it). No idea if there is or ever will be a iMessage tracking app but that may be your only hope...

ExternAuth: Is there any way to get a list of the users currently in a room?

There's a method that will get the room information. ( accountmanager.getRoomInfo(room) ) But I don't see anyway to get a list of the users in the room.
Is this possible?
-sandy

we are working on server to server APIs that will allow you to fetch data (items) from node.
when that is available you'll be able to get the user list from the UserManager node.

Is there any way to get at a result set that only has one entry when using

And please dont tell me its because of the driver... I know this but cant do anything about it
Using Access the only method available is rs.next() and I think that when the statement is prepared it goes to the first (and only) row, so when it executes the cursor is in the wrong place....
Maybe someone could show me some code that stores the rs in somethingI can search through... Theres been some mention of vectors and hashtables but I've not used them (yet)!
String fName = "empty";
String query = "SELECT * FROM Committee WHERE UName LIKE ?";
java.sql.PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareStatement(query);
statement.setString(1,user);
java.sql.ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery();
while (rs.next())
fName = rs.getString("FirstName");
out.println("first: " + fName);
This prints nothing
However when I use:
java.sql.Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
java.sql.ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery(""SELECT * FROM Committee WHERE UName LIKE 'pippip' ";
It does!
The user variable is printed onto the page to test it exists -which it does
And it cant be sending null to the database or else I'd get a null pointer or sql exception...
Its driving me nuts!!!

Like is only used when you want to compare approximate values using wild cards.
You however are not using wildcards.
If you want to do an exact match then you should use '='. If you want to approximate matches then you should use a wildcard: '%' or '_'.

connection.prepareStatement(query);
statement.setString(1,user);

Is there any way to get keywords to show up in grid view?

Being able to see the keywords assigned to each photo in grid view would be incredibly helpful to me for managing my photos and videos as I add new keywords. Just seeing the "this photo has keywords" tag does not help. I need to see the actual keywords, without having to click on each individual photo to see them.

There is no way at present. It was conidered a long time back, but trying to show kywords on a postage stamp wasn't deemed good use of engineering time. An alterntive similar to the Bridge Metadata layout (configurable table view) has been suggested a few times, but I've not seen anything to indicate that it got much traction.

Is there any way to get Firefox to show Thumbnails?

I've been using Firefox for a while now, but it's never really bothered me until now.
Every time I open a website with thumbnails they come up as links instead of what they should be and if I click those links it just takes me to a small picture(what should be the thumbnail, I guess) which I can't do anything with.
I've tried with and without AddOns(NoScript/AdblockPlus), and I've made sure [Load Images Automatically] is ticked, but nothing seems to work. Any help is appreciated greatly, thanks. :)

Thanks for the reply, cor-el, I checked to see if I could see any of the images in Media but there wasn't any, though there was some of the background, avatars and emoticons.
I also checked through the link you gave me:
I tried clearing Cache and Cookies, Force-reloading, without AddOns, all of the things in 'About:config' it said(all were normal/default), checked the exceptions in 'Tools>Options>Content', the links weren't Backslashes.
I checked my Firewall(Not that great with computers, but I'm on XP and using AVG), and I didn't seem to find anything to do with Image blocking, and it should displays a notification when Firewall blocks a program(if that would show for images, I don't know).
So, even with all that I can't seem to find the problem. Anything else? I really love Mozilla and it's annoying to have to go into IE just to see some images load. :(

Is there any way to get Mail to put the time on yesterday's mail instead of just putting "Yesterday"

In "classic" mode, it will show Yesterday and the time if you drag the column wide enough. But in the default mode, it only shows "Yesterday" I need the time!!

Full screen 3 column view shows time stamp.
You can customize the Mail tool bar for the "show all Header icon" of the individual mail. (right click in toolbar area to customize.)
Here the time & date stamp is visible in opened mail.
Of course if you wait a day, it will show.
You can also make some changes Mail>preferences>viewing> Show Header Detail

Is there any way to get a list of the apps installed on my phone through MyVerizon?

I am going to be upgrading in a few days, and I want to obtain a list of all the apps I have installed, so that I can cull out the ones I don't use much or at all.
Is there a list on the MyVerizon website anywhere of what's installed on my phone??

If you have an android phone, you can log into your Gmail account on the Play Store website and see which applications are installed and downloaded at one time. You can also see the same installed list in the Play Store app on the phone.
