Apple TV disappears from the left menu in iTunes
Hi, I recently purchased an Apple TV and set it up and started synching everything. I stopped it when it was doing Pictures and from that moment, it disappeared from the left menu. When I go into Edit --> Preferences and click on Apple TV tab, it says that I have an Apple TV connected to iTunes and has a status of Syncing.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Let me know. Thanks
Having just spent an hour reading about this problem I have a potential path to a solution.
When I ping appletv.local my system returns an ip address of 0.0.0.0
I know very well that it is actually on 192.168.0.4
There is a well known bug on vista that messes up the bonjour routing table so do we have a similar bug in osx/itunes/appletv?
I have done a lot of searching to find a way to manually update the ip address that osx uses to resolve the bonjour name of the appletv, but no joy. I'm not a total unix geek so am a bit stuck.
Anyone out there offer any help?
PS I am hoping that this is the key reason that it's going wrong. There are so many people reporting so many different issues with this and fixes so many different ways I suspect that all their uninstalls/reboots/resets/blah blah are accidentally resetting the address that itunes is using to look up the appletv.
Just one more thought: If you want to try this out for yourself open Terminal and type in 'ping appletv.local'
(without the quotes) and see what you get, if you get a timeout message then your mac can't see your appletv. You should also get the ip address at the top. If it's 0.0.0.0 then it's looking in the wrong place.
Here's hoping I'm on to something!

In Firefox v4.0.1, custom toolbars disappear from the toolbar menu when I open a "New Window".
1.
I created a new toolbar in Customize... / Add New Toolbar. It's on the list of toolbars and opens up '''most times''' I start Firefox, but not ''always''. I have tested it and it is completely random.
2.
Same type of problem as 1., but '''''everytime''''' I use the 'New Window' feature the custom toolbar disappears from the toolbar menu and if I need to use it, I have to '''save all tabs as bookmark''' then close and reopen FireFox so I get my original window [where the toolbar shows up]. AARRRGHH.
I've been using FF for 7 years now, so I know enough to rule out corrupted localstore.rdf, new or updated add-ons (I could be wrong though, as I often am...).
Has this come up with other users? Am I being cursed? [lol] any help would be appreciated.cor-el,
Sorry it took so long to get back to you.
You know, you're right. I should try everything, no matter how smart I think I am!
It's been 3 days since I deleted the localstore.rdf file and so far so good.
Thanxs for the help -
I have installed bootcamp by the bootcamp assistant and worked properly.
Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another Mountain Lion System and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. However, Bootcamp still remained in the Startup Disk in the System Preferences. When I tried to boot Bootcamp using the Startup Disk it did not boot and received a message that there is no bootable device. I have not lost any data and can read Bootcamp partition from both OS X systems. Please advise how can I boot Windows / Bootcamp again? Thank you.Recommendation 1: Use a VM for this. It's essentially a giant C.F. to do this with native booting, and is potentially fragile.
But if you're going to ignore that and do this anyway, realizing that it can break anytime in particular with OS upgrades, and that it's very difficult to impossible to resize the three volumes once you've installed the systems:
1. create three partitions, setting each to be the size for OS X copy 1, copy 2, and Windows respectively. The Windows partition needs to be set to MS-DOS format (actually FAT32) which later in the Windows installer you'll reformat as NTFS. Do not use Boot Camp Assistant to resize/partition the disk, it simply won't work for this use case.
2. install OS X copy 1
3. install OS X copy 3
4. Use gdisk (available at sourceforge) which is a command line only application, to create a new hybrid MBR adding only the last partition (Windows) to the hybrid MBR and setting it to be bootable. As a concequence you will not be able to see/share either OS X volume from within Windows. The Windows NTFS volume will be visible from within OS X.
5. Install Windows to the only partition its installer should see (confirm size), you'll need to format it NTFS first, and I suggest using the fast format option if available. -
My albums and slideshows disappeared from the left column when I ejected a Canon camera after a download. My version of iPhoto '08 (V7.1.5(378)) had just crashed when I first connected the Canon camera to download. I restarted iPhoto.....successfully downloaded 22 photos, and ejected Canon camera, upon which albums & slideshows highlighted blue and disappeared from the left column. The photos still seem to be under the EVENTS and PHOTOS in the LIBRARY. Any thoughts?

Hello!
So basically, I got a lot of the songs on my iPod from a different Apple ID than to the one I am currently using. I want to sync my iPod to the Apple ID I am currently using but I want to know if the songs on my iPod from the previous Apple ID will disappear off of the iPod or go all grey so that I cant select them? I know that Apple says that it will delete the songs from my old Apple ID but what I noticed is that when I've deleted songs from my iPod using iTunes in the past is that they don't disappear from the iPod, they stay there but the names go grey so that I cant select them. Basically I want to know which will happen. Sorry if this is a bit confusing...
Thanks!See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Did the watermark option disappear from the export menu?
After reinstalling Aperture, due to the call back from Apple, for replacing the hard disk I've got a lot of problems with the program.
The latest is that I can't find anymore the box " Show Watermark" when exporting photo's. Is it placed somewhere else?
Kees BakkerIs your Aperture version 3.4.3? For me the "Show Watermark" option is still there, when I export versions. Or are you trying to export originals? These cannot be watermarked.
The "Show Watermark" option is available in the Export menu, when you edit the export preset you are using.

Master pages went missing from my FrameMaker 12 setup about 4 days ago. I can see body and references pages. I have tried reinstalling. The master pages are missing from all of my FrameMaker documents, absolutely all of them. I have done two new installations of FM 12, no fix.
Does the old shortcut still work? [Esc, v, M plus its close kin Esc, v, R for Reference pages and Esc, v, B for Body pages – all case-sensitive]
Also, does "missing" mean you select View master pages and get a blank screen? while double-checking the view shortcuts, I discovered this can be replicated by turning off borders [Esc, v, b] in Master page view … if you happen to be using a Master page layout with no header or footer. But I have also, occasionally, ended up with blank master pages even when they should have had content. It's a mystery. -
I recently added two accounts to Thunderbird and everything seemed to be going smoothly. Today I was using one of the new accounts and wanted to change to my old Edurostream account. But it was nowhere to be found. The new accounts and another old account are there. If I go to "accounts" Edurostream is still there, but there is no way I know of to get from there to the inbox for that account. There is no error message. I am using the latest version of Thunderbird (24.6)
If you have all your emails going to Local folders, this sounds like you have a Global Inbox for the pop mail account.
You can check this here:
Tools > Account settings > Server Settings for the mail account.
click on 'Advanced' button.
Is this selected?
'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders)'
Global Inbox accounts do not show the mail account name in the Folder Pane as it does not use those folders.
See info on Global Inbox account:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Global_Inbox
If you remove the account, the emails will remain in Local Folders.
If you change the settings as described above to point to 'Inbox for this servers account (also see image below - words may be a bit different as not an image of latest version), then you will see the mail account in the Folder Pane with it's own set of folders. New mail will go to those folders, but old mail will remain in Local Folders.
