When I connect an external hard drive to macbook pro it is very slow to appear on the desktop and Finder window, sometimes 20 mins or more, even with auto backup switched off . any clues?

Hi robfromkinglake west,
Try and isolate the issue. Check if it's only with this drive.
Check the drive with Disk Utility

Hello, check Finder Preferences>General, & then the Sidebar tab also.

Can i get the time capsule to automatically back up my file from my Mac Book Air but have certain files which are only stored on the time capsule and not the computer? Then can i access these files only on the time capsule without connecting it?

You can, but how are you going to back up those other files? When (not if) your Time Capsule fails, you risk losing them. See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule for details.

Not sure what you mean. You have to connect a computer, either via Ethernet cable or wirelessly, to read or write to the disk.

When I download software updates why do they appear on the desktop (and in devices) and not get saved to the HD (I click install to HD but they don't go there)

Double-click the white Adobe Reader Icon to open a new windows.
Double-Click the "Adobe Reader X Installer.pkg" file inside.
If it has already been installed it will notify you and say that it has been installed already.
If you no longer have those files go here to get the latest version of Adobe Reader.

Let me know how that all goes and if you have any hang ups.

It sounds to me from researching the other white 'icon' you have that you are trying to install a copier by the brand of Rico Aficio.
Possibly the Aficio 2090/2105.
If so the install CD/Driver download for that copier must have also wanted you to install Adobe Reader to view the User Guides/ Documentation included.
If you are trying to install said device then double click the white icon labeled Ricoh_Aficio...double click the installer file inside of that.
It should run a setup/install window like Adobe Reader did then go from there. If it has already been install also you can go to your System Preferences -> Printers to see if it installed correctly and is working properly.
You can get to system preferences by clicking the Apple icon very upper left on your screen and selecting it from the drop down.

A Volume-like icon appeared on the desktop and it stays on every application I open.

I have a month old HP Pavillion 23 with Windows 8.1. About 2 weeks ago an icon that looks like a volume guage appeared on the upper left side of the screen on the desktop and it stays on every application I open. If I clck on it, the purple guage goes from the bottom to the top and the numbers on the bottom go up to 100. What-ever it is, it's also preventing me from opening/clicking on the Start icon or tabbing between open apps. How do I get rid of this?

Hello @Sheshe73,
I understand that about 2 weeks ago the volume gauge appeared on your computer and is it causing you grief. I recommend that you follow the steps in the HP Support document: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8), which is also good for Windows 8.1 and restore your computer back to just before the volume control appeared. This will in effect remove the control and allow you to continue to use your computer without it's interference.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a wonderful day!

Do I need to back up my iMac to an external HD? if so should I partion the drive and use it for storage as well

At a loss...

Highly recommended you have at lesat the incremental backups automated by Time Machine (the software). Time Machine makes backups so easy to setup and after that you ‘forget’ about backups as all tasks occur in the background, hourly by default.
If you use Time Capsule (the hardware) for your backups, you should not partition that drive. If you use a conventional external drive, you can consider partitioning it so that one volume is dedicated to Time Machine and one volume for example for other data purposes. When you have an external drive, you need to drag it to the Trash icon on the dock to eject the drive before you shutdown (or restart) the computer; this will ensure all data is physically written to the drive and buffers cleared. When you partition the external drive, ensure that both partitions are ejected before you shutdown.
The first time Time Machine runs, it does a full backup and can take quite a long time depending upon how much you are backing up. After that, it only backs up data that has changed and is usually very quick. At anytime, you can delete those backups and do a new full backup if you wish. It keeps old versions of everything you backup as long as you have space on the drive. When you are nearly out of space, Time Machine deletes the oldest versions of files until it has made enough room to continue backups. You’ll always have at least one complete image of all your data backed up assuming your backup volume is always larger than the data you wish to backup. If your backup disk is not large enough to hold everything, you can select files you do not wish to be backed up by Time Machine, for instance, you may have large video capture files from HDV tape that you do not need to backup because they are already on tape.

I think i hit some important key accidentally. something changed. now when i receive photos, they only appear in the message and i have no thumbnails nor a way to download. those same e-mails with photos do fine on the iPad/iPhone, so it is my computer.

something changed on my computer after i accidentally hit some key. when i receive e-mails now with photos the images appear in the message
but no thumbnails nor way to download. these same messages are fine on the iPad and iPhone. so, it is my computer that is awry. any keyboard

My iPhone shuts off randomly and doesn't turn back on until i plug it into a power source?

every 10 or so minutes my iphone will shut off, never while im using it, only when i put it down or in my pocket and when i try to turn it back on i get no response until i plug it into power, when i do that the device restarts. any one else have this problm?

I have an iphone 3 and the same problem. Some of the 2008 posts on a similar title suggest a restore. I need to save all of my 700+ photos somewhere before I attempt that process.

HT1937 Hi, I have an iphone 4 at moment and my contract with tesco ends in Decembe, although after i ight out it stopped working, there is no water damage and its no cracked. I have charging, plugging it into my laptop but its doesnt want to come on?

Hi, i currently have an iphone 4 and my contract ends with Tesco in December. Atfer i night out my phone stopped working and now doesnt turn on ive tried everything. It has no water damage and no cracks and dont know where to take it or what to do. Thanks Charlotte

Hello Charlotte,
I would be concerned too if my iPhone was not powering on. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this. I recommend following the steps below:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

After installing FF 6.02 on Windows 7, the icon does not appear on the desktop and the program does not appear in the All Programs menu

I just received a new laptop running windows 7 home premium and wanted to install Firefox on it. I tried to install the most recent version. When i installed 6.0.2, the icon did not appear on my desktop (it was a hidden file in my desktop folder) and the program group does not appear in the start menu's All Programs list. The program *does* run though, at least it did a few times. This happened whether i installed as administrator or not. Installing firefox 3.6.22, though, DID create the program group and desktop icon, and upgrading from there removed them again. installing other programs (e.g. vlc, trillian, etc.) did not cause this behavior. I also tried this both with and without McAfee's realtime protection running.

Some people have found that an app (usually iBooks for some reason) hasn't appeared on a homescreen until after the iPad has been reset and has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Also depending on what the app is have you got an age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

HT4993 my iphone 4s turned off randomly and it wont turn back on, i tryed connecting it to my laptop to see if it will turn on and still nothing, i connected it to the charger, for about an hour and still nothing... why?

so i picked up my brother from school today and on the way i was getting alot of texts and i read them but didnt reply, then i put my iphone on the arm rest thing, and when i came home, it didnt wanna turn on, idk why... it was around 80 percent battery and it wont turn on! i tryed connecting it to my wall, and nothing then i tryed to connect it to itunes, and nothing comes out, its already installed to my laptop but when i connect it, it wont turn on or open itunes please help!

Connect to Wall Charger again and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.

After downloading 3.6.17, the application only opens from the desktop and will not show up as an application.

Didn't like 4.0, so I deleted it and downloaded the .dmg to reinstall 3.6.17. The app opens fine but I did not get the usual installation screens and Firefox does not show as an application.
Simple fix?
Doug

My question above was.......
If you power off the AirPort Express completely for now, can AirPort Utility "see" the AirPort Extreme that you previously set up?
In addition.....
Are these recent versions of the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express?
Are you using OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.4 as your profile above indicates?

HT201210 my iphone will not turn on, it shut off on its own and when i plug it in to charge the apple sign goes on and off. te sprint store told me to plug it into my laptop to reboot it bout it still wont tun on

plz help

Issues booting are genenerally symptomatic with a corrupted operating system. I've seen this issue a lot recently with folks who have tried (unsuccessfully) to install the preview of iOS 7. If this is the case, once you get this issue resolved, I recommend you stick with iOS 6 until the new version is officialy released. If not then it just might be run of the mill corruption. Either way, you'll need to perform a DFU restore of the device. Check this video out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofpinyGlQ8I for instructions on how to do this. It will delete everything, but this is likely the only option you have at this point. If you have issues doing this or if a DFU restore does not resolve your issue you should head to the Apple Store Genius Bar with an appointment (call, or go to apple.com/retail) and they will assist you!
