Can someone help me with an Itunes & Firefox problem? (Stuttering issue)

Hi,
Yesterday I updated iTunes to the latest version. Since then, whenever I listen to music in iTunes and browse the net, the track playing stutters/skips when a webpage loads or if I open a new tab.
I have tried various "solutions" already like updating my soundcard driver and setting the iTunes priority in task manager, but that didn't work at all.
I have searched the internet and have noticed that this is an old problem, yet no one seems to have an answer. Does anybody here have an update on this problem and a probable solution for me.
Many thanks.

.local indicates local activity by the computer host Williams-macbook-pro.local=hostname@domain . The UID of 501 is the standard UID of a local computer administrator.
Copy and paste this little script in your terminal:
if [ "SSH_CONNECTION ]; then
echo I am remote
else
echo I am local
fi
A return of "i am local" ensures there is no remote connection to your machine (through SSH).
In the future, to avoid remote entry, I would recommend not posting your IP address though.

Can someone help me with a user account problem?

Hi everyone, I need help.
Last night while working on my computer, I decided I wanted to change the name beside my little "house" icon -- in the left part of the finder window.
Well, I changed it from allisonnagorski to allison and everything seemed to work fine. Then, I noticed my iDisk disappeared, so I decided to restart the computer to get it back because I was preparing to back up some info from my hard drive to iDisk.
Anyway, when the computer restarted, the desktop was different and none of my programs (iCal, Address Book, Mail, iTunes, Quicken, etc.) were as they usually are -- they were all "brand new," if you will.
So, my immediate thought was that I logged in as a new user. Also, I'm the only user/administrator, but thought maybe by changing my name, I created a new user. So, I logged out and tried to log in as the other user, but there was no other user.
I looked at Apple's help and even went into the account preferences in system preferences, but couldn't fix the problem. The long name was allison, but the short name was still allisonnagorski. I am still listed as administrator, too.
The funny thing is that all my data is not lost. I can see it in the users folder in my hard drive, but I don't know how to get it back into my applications.
Could someone PLEASE help me with this? I'm crippled because I can't access my everday programs.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!
Allison

Can anyone help me with iPod/iTunes syncing problems after recent software update?

Hi there,
I wonder if anyone can help me. Last week I updated my iPod to the latest software (8.2). Today I deleted some albums from iTunes and added a few others. I also made some changes to a few of my playlists. I then synched iTunes and my iPod. However the synching has not worked.
When I connect my iPod, it shows up in iTunes pretty instantly. When I click on sync, I can see in iTunes that it is syncing and also on my iPod, but the changes do not appear on my iPod afterwards. Also, after the first syncing attempt, I lost two-thirds of my album cover art. So, I lost covert art, but no other changes were made. The albums I deleted from iTunes are still on my iPod and the ones I added to iTunes are not on my iPod.
I have looked at the music on my iPod while connected to iTunes. I can see the songs/albums I have added are there, but they appear in grey and have a doted circle (to the left) next to them. This shows that they have not synched (I guess).
I have already restarted my McBook Pro and iPod a few times. I synched my iPod with iTunes after every restart, but it has not made any difference. I also deleted the music I added to iTunes and added it again. I synched iTunes and my iPod after this, but it has made no difference.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanks

Thank you for your reply. I followed your suggestion and restored my iPod to its factory settings. I then restored it from a backup file. All the problems have been resolved. Quite incredible that I had to go through that process to fix it. I hope Apple will find a solution to the iTunes problem soon.

Can someone help me with my plug-in problem?

I have Elements 7 and recently added a slew of photo filter plug-ins that I had an another computer. When I added these filters, the drop down box that displays the filters from the top menu options, now only displays the filters alphabetically from A - D, which totally fills the drop down box. Nothing I have attempted will allow me to access my filters that start with the letters D-Z, and my favorite and most used being Topaz Adjust.
Put another way, I have way more photo filters that Elemets can/or will display in the drop down box. Is there anything I can do? Thanks kindly in advance!

The email you should NOT have published, is your iCloud, not Apple ID
You Apple ID is a valid email address
This is a user forum, not Apple customer service.
I gather the security question did not work.
If you have an email address, why not use that?
If this fails you have to contact support and schedule help.

Can someone help me with a batch processing problem

I just got my first Mac and I just loaded Aperture and unfortunately a deadline is upon me. I am used to Photoshop but I'm lost here looking at Aperture. All I need to do right now is to pop in CDs full of photos and produce thumbnails of them to put in file folders on my hard drive. I figure it's an automated batch process, but I'm just not seeing it among the functions of Aperture. I know this request may annoy some users, but I sure could use the help right now and I promise to use the tutorial and manual in the future.

If what you mean is make a bunch of small jpegs - just import the images into an Aperture project - select them all and use export version to put them out in whatever size/format you want. If a preset does not exist for your purposes - create a new one with "edit.." from the presets drop down menu in the export version dialog.

The calender on my iPhone 4 with iOS 6 no longer syncs with iCal 4.0.4 on my mac OS 10.6.8. However it is syncing with my iCloud account. Can someone help me with this?

FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

I'm assuming you have Photo Stream set up of both devices. However, it seems many users are experiencing the same as you - my take is that streaming photos is not foolproof yet.

Hi, can someone help me with my External HDD??? Please

Hi, Can someone help me with my Extenal HDD???
Please

After you have all of the files from the External HDD you want to save, to format the HDD:
Open Launchpad
Open Utilities
Open Disk Utility
Select Hard Drive to format (the external HDD)
If you want to change partition size or number select Partition Table
Select number of partitions and adjust sizes if more than one
Name the partitions
Select the format from the pop-up menu (use Mac OS Extended (Journaled))
If it is not already selected, select GUID Partition Table
Click OK
Click Apply
And it should do the formatting for you.
Note: giving a name may come after the format selection, I sometimes get that out of order but it will lead you through the process.
