    I have installed the latest version of iOS in my ipad but forgot to backup the content, what should i do!!! I don't want my media and other data erased, how can i find back all the data in my ipad? I haven't restore ipad yet, so any others way can be use? Now my ipad is in recovery mode.

    Once you are in Recovery Mode, it's too late to do any backup. I am afraid you are going to lose your data.

  • In Finder , why i can't go back and forward using the trackpad in Mountain Lion?

    In Finder , why i can't go back and forward using the trackpad in Mountain Lion?

    Hi. I also got the same problem but just learnt a way to resolve it. No need for 3rd party software.
    If you don't care much about the Three finger drag gesture, and just want to swipe between pages in Finder and web browsers, please follow these:
    System Preferences/Trackpad/More gestures/Swipe between pages/Scroll left or right with 2 fingers. This option works solely for web browsers.
    In order to swipe between pages in Finder, web browsers and other apps as well,change the option to Swipe with two or three fingers. (3 for Finder and apps, 2 for web pages)
    If you also want to use Three-finger drag to move windows and drag-select:
    The problem occurs once you change to "Swipe with 2 or three fingers", Lion will automatically disable/uncheck the Three finger drag function in Trackpad/Point&Click. Or the other way around, you tick Three Finger drag, Swipe between pages automatically switches to Scroll with two fingers because these 2 functions are overlapped.
    My solution is:
    stick with initial option Scroll with two fingers for navigating between web pages.
    Re-tick Three finger drag in Point&Click.
    Use combination: Option+Swipe 4 fingers for Finder and other apps (although it functions reversely, Swiping left to go backward, swipe right to go forward)
    My current gesture routine:
    - Swipe between web pages: Scroll with two fingers.
    - Swipe between pages in Finder and other apps: Combination Option+swipe 4 fingers
    - Swipe between full-screen apps (desktops): Swipe left or right with 4 fingers
    - Drag select and navigate windows: Three finger drag
    - Mission Control - Swipe up with 4 fingers. (avoid conflict with three finger drag)
    * You can actually use combination Option+Swipe 4 fingers for everything (apps, finder, web pages) but I personally prefer swipe 2 fingers for web browsing. It's just easier and quicker and avoid conflicts with other gestures.
    Hope this help.

  • I used to have the iPhoto application and for some reason it is now gone. Do I have to pay 14.99 in order for me to be able to have it again or is there a way I can get it back. I have a MacBook pro 10.9.5 .

    Depends on what you had
    If you had iPhoto version 9.5.1 then you can reinstall from the app store under purchases
    If you had any version of iPhoto '11 then you can install for free from the App store
    If you had any earlier version of iPhoto (iPhoto '09 version 8.x.x) or older then you need to purchase iPhoto '11 version 9.x.x from the app store
    If you had iPhoto '08 (version 7.x.x) or older then you also need to download and run the iPhoto library upgraded prior to launching the new iPhoto

  • My sister can't find Pages on her Macbook Pro Mountain Lion, can someone help?

    My sister is new to her MacBook Pro Mountain Lion and thinks she may have deleted the Pages program. She's away at college for the first time and needs this program. I've told her to use Finder and search for Pages, or look in her applications, but to no avail. Help?

    How did she acquire Pages in the first place?
    If it was a purchase from the Mac App Store, all she need to do is launch App Store (from the  menu is easiest), sign in with the Apple ID & password used, click on 'purchases' & click the INSTALL button to the right of Pages in the list.
    If it was from a retail DVD she will need the DVD to reinstall.

  • Can't find Library when using Import Mailboxes option in Mountain Lion

    Hi there, I'm trying to import my Mailboxes I've created on my iMac in my Apple Mail, but I can't see the "Library" folder. I've searched the web and found instructions to unhide the "Library" folder when using Finder, but this does not help me as I can't use this when following the instructions and prompts in the Mail>File>Import Mailboxes option. I'm running Mountain Lion. Can anyone help?

    Sorry that option not available in mountain lion.
    You can use a terminal command but the easiest way to do this is to choose Go>Go To Folder ~/Library.
    When it opens drag the Folder from the window bar into your side bar.
    This will make it always available.
    To remove it just drag out of the side bar.

  • Can I run Windows XP on my 2010 Macbook Pro running Lion?

    Hi,
    I have a 2010 Macbook Pro running Lion. If I install BootCamp on it can I get Windows XP CD installed? I've heard compatibility issues so I'm asking here. Thanks.

    No. BootCamp in Lion only supports Windows 7.

  • I can't sync/back up iPhone data to my computer b/c iPhone screen is shattered and i cant unlock it to enter in my passcode. How can I sync my broken iPhone with my computer and back up my data so I can sync and transfer the data to my replacement iPhone?

    I can't sync my iPhone and back up my data with my computer because iTunes says to enter the passcode into my iPhone to unlock it, but I am unable to unlock and enter in my passcode on my iPhone because the screen is shattered. I have my replacement iPhone with me and I'm not going to activate it until I can sync/get the data from my broken iPhone. I have the envelope to send my broken iPhone back to the Verizon store or whatever so that's not a problem. I just can't sync my old iPhone with my computer.
    Thanks.

    No I haven't synced my iPhone with the computer I'm currently using. The computer that I normally sync my iPhone with is being repaired.
    I read a nearly identical question to mine (in which you answered) and I found my the answer. Thanks!
    Now I have a few more questions: If I mail my broken iPhone to Asurion, will I be able to get my data off of my iPhone once Asurion has it? And what will happen to my old iPhone and the data on it if I activate my replacement iPhone? Will my broken iPhone just become de-activated and will the data be erased or lost or something? Could I still sync it (with the computer ir originally synced with) and back up the data?
    Thanks.

  • How I can back up my data from macbook pro that its hard drive seems to die soon?

         I need your help guys from the whole world.
    I am now in Erbil (North Iraq) and there is no apple authorized resellers or anyone who can fix macs, they can destroy them as they try to repair it ( this is what happened      to me recently with My I phone and I pad). So I am left alone to fix it with your global help I hope.
    The issue is, I didn't do back up on my mac book pro for over  a year. I woke up 3 days ago, switched my mac and there was this funny pinc ponc noise coming from the lower right hand side of my mac (between track pad and keyboard), the computer was going slow and I wasnt able to do anything even after few restarts. It is always too slow to perform anything and this noise always start after few seconds of starting and keep going. the computer can still function very well on guest account *(safari only) and I don't hear the noise then nor when I press T. But if I try to log in to all my drive or in safe mode I get this noise and none function computer. when I went to disk utility there was message in red to back up my data immediately and take the hard drive to authorized service center.
    I checked on internet, you tube  and others..and it seems I have faulty hard drive. Since I am here alone and no service center so I think I will replace it myself. But first thing first i need to back up my precious data. I found few ways of doing this and I wonder if you can give me some tips, advise or any other method to do the back up.
    1) Transfer data on target mode:  I havent done this before but I am thinking to connect my faulty macbook pro to another with firewire, pressing T on the faulty Mac and install Super Duper on the other mac. Then I connect external hard drive to the working mac via USB. And the question is     :      can I transfer the files this way to an external bootable hard drive connected to the working mac     , so the working mac will function as bridge between faulty mac and external hard drive. Also can I do this process through my old none intel based power book(which I am using now)  instead of borrowing macbook from friend?
    2) Buy new hard drive, open my mac and replace the faulty one. then put the faulty one in external inclosure, connect to refurbished mac and transfer data back. Can I do this? will I need to install the mac os from the CD associated with it before I do transfer?
    Is there any other way to do this please?

    Hi PlotinusVeritas
    where do I download the superdoper please?
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/superduperdescription.html
    its here:   
    Download the free trial now!
    This simple software is free and very easy to use, yes, it makes a 100% clone of ALL on your HD, everything.
    (assuming its not so dead it wont copy).
    you only need the free trial version to clone your HD.
    can I download it on guest account? this one I can login and seems to function fine.
    Then install same on your guest account, that wouldnt matter, since Superduper clones everything (except the recovery partition which you dont need in your case right now).
    LaCie is Seagate (lacie doesnt make HD) , yes, that would be fine,  clone your HD ASAP and hope it works.
    there is no software fix for HD hardware failure, ......this is why a backup copy of data is so very important all the time, period.

    I've been locked out my MacBook Pro, I was able to lock the MacBook with the find my iPhone app but I'm unable to unlock it with the app or by punching in the code directly to the MacBook, so far the apple store or reps over the phone can not help. I've called a third party retail store for assistance and the tell me I have to pay, even if I get it to work or not... So far nothing these apple "genius" will do to help with this product solution.
    I know my passcode/password but I am not able to log in....
    Is there anyone that can help?

    I would guess the fan is the cause of the noise. Suggest you take a look at it.

  • Can't move contacts from iPhone to new MacBook Pro

    Hi,
    my father-in-law has an iPhone 3G which he's used with his PC without a problem. I finally convinced him to buy a MacBook Pro (which he did today) and we've been unable to move the contacts from the iPhone to the laptop. The phone is connected to iTunes and all looks normal but when we select "contacts" to be synced to the laptop and then click apply, nothing happens. Tried to sync it, the phone and iTunes say "syncing" but the contacts are not showing up in the laptop's address book - very embarassing. I'm assuming it's something I'm doing wrong but I can't for the life of me find an answer.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Ole

    Before you connect your phone to the mac, you should make sure that auto sync when a phone or ipod is connected is NOT CHECKED in preferences for itunes.
    Once you've authorized the account, you should then transfer your purchased apps & music to itunes from your phone.
    You do that by going up to file, select transfer purchases made on this ipod to this computer. All of your purchased apps & music will be transferred, music you ripped on your own or photos will not be, you'll have to restore those from a backup.
    If you already have contacts in your address book, you should have received the merge prompt when you synced. Are you sure in itunes you have the contact tab checked?
