Apps from the app store are not downloaded to the proper location

My iTunes library is stored on a networked drive and the iTunes Music Folder Location preference is set to that drive. The problem is that when I purchase an app from the app store it is not stored in the folder that is set in iTunes, it stores it on my local drive under Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications.
Any ideas how I can have those apps stored where all of my other iTunes downloads are stored besides me having to manually move them?

My does the same thing but I have my music library on an external Hard Drive. I was glad I found this out before I nuked my machine and reloaded the OS. I moved the apps to the hard drive and then pointed each app in itunes to it new location. That worked until I downloaded a new app and it put that app on my notebooks hard drive. For some reason apple has this as a default location that can not be changed. I think it will come back to hurt them when people like you and I do formate their hard drives and thinking that their apps are backed up. I guess we will have to wait to see if this is fixed in future updates of iTunes.

Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g! I just want to know.

Once I find the game i will truly screenshot that it states "not compatible for these models". I just find it RIDICULOUS that my iPod touch is in good condition and some of the applications that I want download sometimes are not compatible with my iPod touch 4g. I am not going to buy an ipod 5th generation if my 4g is still going strong since the year of 2010.

You can move apps around in iOS 7 the same as iOS 6. Press an app icon until you see it wiggle; then drag it to where ever you want it to be. Drag it onto another app to create a folder with the two apps. Tap the Home button to stop the wiggle.

When going from a Mac-based Ai to a PC based Ai, the documents "Font" are not found on the PC version? (mostly Helvetica) where and how do I get those Fonts? And/or, can I use the Mac version of these Fonts?

Thanks, Rich

In order to be cross platform you must be using the Open Type version of all fonts to cause the least disruption. Macs can read and process the Windows .ttf type format but PCs can't process Mac formatted type. Most recent versions also cannot use the older PS Type 1 fonts.

How do I delete items from menu bar that are not part of the OS

How do I delete items from menu bar that are not part of the OS

Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details. I can give you some general ideas though.
On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer. If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
Hope that helps.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

I just purchased a mac mini and wondered if it's safe to download the Kobo reader app. can I download things from the internet that are not available in the apple store?

I just purchased a mac mini and wondered if it's safe to download from the internet (such as Kobo) that are not available on the app store. It asked me if I was sure it was safe, so it's got me worried.

If you know the sites are OK, then download away.

A number of songs I downloaded from the iTunes store are not playing the whole way through.

Some of the songs are only playing for a couple of seconds, them others I have purhased around the same time are playing the whole way through. Is there any way to fix this?

Hey maddielou2,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines a resolution to your issue:
Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
Resolution
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
- Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
- Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
- Download your previously purchased song from this list.
Thanks,
Matt M.

All your privacy settings will be reset to their defaults. If there's no change, put the item you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place, and log out again. Otherwise, delete the item you moved.
