"But, I did not put those files in the Trash." How did the files get there? Why are they in there? OSX 10.9.5 (Mavericks)

Why are so many files in my Trash? Is this some new feature I am some how unaware of? Confused... Thanks. Lena

I don't know why it happened, but I just spent a few hours and went through them one at a time and either refiled or deleted...

  • I finally upgraded my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 5 software and it did NOT put my pictures or contacts!!! I keep getting the error (-50). What does that mean? Is there anything I can do?

    I just want my pictures, texts, and contacts. It looks like my computer hasn't recorded a backup for my phone since I got it last year.

    Thanks for reply,
    It's truely a disestar for me to kill my phone myself by so called bloody upgradation.
    Iwish I have not upgraded.
    I baught it from here in Bangladesh and now I’m ina mess to get at least a minimum support.
    Thanks for your valued suggessions but it didn’tmade any difference to my situation.
    So now I have an ipod in the price of an iPhone4. Crap.
    Is there any chance of fixing this bug by apple?As the same problem has already been faced by a lot of iPhone Users.

  • I ve got a macBook with two different users. My husband wants to have all the music (our CDs which I copied to my user itunes library) on his new ipad which is registered on his name with itunes. But it does not work. Can we and if how have the same music

    See question above in title.

    There is no "adding" a device.  Simply plug the iDevice into the computer.  iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
    iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit.

  • Apple put a new hard drive into my MacBook Pro and updated the system to Maverick. They did not put iPhoto and iWeb on it but I did have it in Lion. Why and what am I supposed to do?

    Apple put a new hard drive into my MacBook Pro and updated it from Lion to Maverick. They did not put iPhoto and iWeb on it but I did have it in Lion. They also didn't put Pages, Keynote or Numbers back on it until I argued with them. Of course, I didn't have my data backed up. My hard drive was destroyed when I tried to install the update of Mavericks myself. I should not have to buy iWeb and iPhoto when I already had them. Suggestions?

    cwhargrave,
    have you tried looking in the App Store, to see if you can redownload iWeb and iPhoto there gratis?
    If you haven’t done so already, you should purchase an external hard drive to act as a Time Machine backup destination, so that you’ll have an option to rollback to a working environment if a new OS installation is troublesome.

  • I purchased a new MacBook Pro and when transferring files iphoto did not transfer.  I have a question mark in the place of the icon.  My pictures are in library but can't properly access iphoto.  Thank you

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • I am trying to export a Numbers spreadsheet to a csv file, but it does not put the commas in

    I am trying to export a Numbers spreadsheet to a csv file, but it does not put the commas in.  I want to use it with an HTML table generator tool, but the tool is looking for commas.   The Export to CSV exports it as a spreadsheet with all the formatting removed, and no commas.
    Here is the html table tool:
    http://www.textfixer.com/html/csv-convert-table.php

    Numbers '09 create CSV files with comma separated values if and only if your system is using decimal period.
    If the system is using decimal comma, the CSV files are created using semi-colon as separator.

    i have games on my computer that i did not put there.how do i delete them.  now i can't sync anything because it says it is full.

    What version iPod do you have? If it is an older click-wheel mode and the games that came with it then there is no way to delete them but they take up very little space.

  • Why am i being charged twice for 11.04 and 11.46 when I did not purchase those songs, I used an itunes card 25$ and I still have 0.04 cents left?

    Why am i being charged twice for 11.04 and 11.46 when I did not purchase those songs, I used an itunes card 25$ and I still have 0.04 cents left?
    I couldnt redeem w/o an apple ID so when i did it asked for a credit card. And I want to discontinue and remove my account from itunes but it wont let me, there is no account discontinue or removal of account

    Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

    I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
    1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
    2. Delete the app.
    3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
    4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
    5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
    6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
    7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
    My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
    Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library.

  • HT1751 Hi I followed the istructions to copy/move iTunes music to a new PC, can see albums listed in Library, but SYNCH does not put any music on iPod. It took me three weeks to import my CDs into iTunes and i DON'T want to do it again! Can anyone help ?

    Hi I followed instructions to copy/move iTunes music to a new PC. I can see albums listed in the library but SYNCH will not put any music on my new iPod.

    Take a look here; it should help:
    iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between authorized computers
    Though it refers to items purchased from the iTunes Store, it applies to all your iTunes content. And if you happen to also own an iPod:
    How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    Once you have the tracks on some removable medium, you can mount that on your new computer and then just drag the content to the iTunes window. Make sure that the option to "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is set in the iTunes -> Advanced -> General preferences before you do. Alternatively, you can use the Add To Library command and select each track (or folder of tracks).
    If you won't be using that Windows system once you move the content, don't forget to deauthorize the system from your iTunes Store account before you dispose of the computer.
    Regards.
