Can't prevent books from being synced from iPhone to Mac

Now that we have iCloud I can finally return my iTunes into being just a music jukebox. Apps, books, tv shows don't belong in iTunes in my Mac.
I have been able to clear everything that is not audio from my iTunes. Keeping just music and audiobooks. Except for Books.
Every time my iTunes syncs my iPhone through WiFi with iTunes it brings the purchased books back from the iPhone.
If I uncheck the box to sync books, next time it rechecks it by itself and re-adds those books. Its quite frustrating. Then the books tab in the sidebar re-appers.
I am assuming this is a bug. Anyone else having this issue? I looking forward for what I think will be iTunes 11 redesigned with iCloud in mind.

Welp, I found a silly but working solution. Check out the post from RuleRulez on this page: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3404369?start=15&tstart=0
Basically, connect the phone to iTunes, go to the Info tab, and check the box to sync mail settings. It doesn't sync any accounts, only the settings for the accounts that are on both devices. Fixed mine. Crazy.
Anyway, good luck! Hope that helps you guys!

How can I transfer contacts from IPHone to Mac?,

First of all, thanks to everyone who will help me.
I syncronised many times my Iphone 3GS with Mac and everything was OK (apart that I found all the contacts twice or 3 times in Iphone).
I backuped Iphone sometimes on the Mac and others on ICloud.
Last time, I found that the adress book in Mac was almost completely empty (only 10 or so contacts, all the groups empty) but I have everything in the IPhone.
How can I now get to transfer all the contacts from IPhone to Mac?
Thanks again
Anna

Deleted the contacts from where? The device? the computer? both?
Use the backup of the computer to put them back if they have been deleted off the computer. Once that is done, they can be synced to the iPhone.

How can I use Imessage from Iphone to mac?

Hello
I am a new user for the awesome new feature Imessage
And I have a question: how can I send a message to an IPad or IPod or Mac or IPhone from IPhone and Mac?
Thanks

To send from the iPhone to the mac or Ipad you need an email address to send to, instead of a phone number.
on the iPad or mac you need to setup Messages. I do not have mesages on the mac and do not have an iPad but I have set it up on my iPod Touch and I assume it is similar.
Settings>Messages>
> iMessage > ON
> Send Read Reveipts > ON or OFF your choice
> Received At > [email protected]
Enter your valid email address in the "Received At" field.
As long as the email is valid it should work, and I assume you will need a different email for the iPad and Mac.

Saving voice memos from iphone to mac

Hi all,
I've read a couple of threads re synching voice memos from my iphone to my mac. And i've followed the instructions (i.e. clicking the "include voice memos" under the synch music section in itunes). Trouble is when the synch runs and i go into itunes library to find the voice memos i cant find them. I've searched by typing in "voice memo" as well as manually searching through the entire library. The voice memos are still safely on my iphone, but not in my itunes library. Any clues?

You can transfer voice memos from iPhone to Mac by emailing:
Open the voice memo app and select the recording you want to transfer, then tap on the Share icon in the left corner under the Play button. Now you have the option to send it as a Mail.
Choose Mail then fill in the relevant details and hit send. This is fine for the occasional memo, but if you have several that you want to do at once - or have long recordings whose files sizes are not inbox friendly - then the best solution is to use iPhone Transfer for Mac.

I receive numerous messages in "Bulk Mail". Where do they come from and how can I prevent them from being received? Thanks

Once you're on a spammer's list, there's nothing you can do to stop the flood of e-mail messages. You can either control it, using spam filtering (which is what files those messages in the Junk Mail folder), or you can throw out your e-mail address and get a new one.
It's sad, but spam is simply a fact of life at this point, and there's nothing to be done about it. Legislation has been tried, with zero success, since most spam either comes from countries with no legislation or from personal computers that have been infected with malware and are part of a "botnet."

How can I prevent Firefox from re-installing test pilot?

I had removed the test pilot extension and its feedback button in Firefox 4.0b9. I let Firefox upgrade itself to 4.0b10 and didn't notice that silently re-installed it.
I was typing in another application when suddenly that window was minimized and the focus shifted to a Firefox "new test pilot study" window that popped up. Even if I had given permission for that software to be installed, that is rude.
I am not willing to trust that if I disable this logging software that it will stay disabled the next time I upgrade. I will remove test pilot again. '''How can I prevent Firefox from re-installing it?'''
One way might be to set extensions.rdf read-only. However, I do not wish to lose the ability to install add-ons, I merely do not want anybody (including Mozilla) to install an add-on without my permission.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519357 doesn't seem to address this problem as test pilot is a known component. Its not a plug-in so I can't modify the plugin scanning settings to prevent it from being loaded. Is there some way I can reliably supplement http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/blocklist/ with a local block list file? If so, would I have to update that whenever a new version of test Pilot is released?

I'm not sure what you mean by "re-directs e-mails." Are the recipient addresses changing between the time you address the message and the time it is sent?
If you could provide more information I think that would help in tracking this down.
When you use Firefox to work with your webmail site, whether Yahoo! or Gmail or another, the mechanics of sending the mail are handled by the site itself. So if there is a problem with how messages are addressed, then you may need to check your Yahoo! mail settings.

If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

My child accidentally rented a movie on Apple TV. Is there a way to refund the rental if we don't watch it? How can I prevent this from happening? Is there a way to password protect future purchases?

How can I prevent this from happening? Is there a way to password protect future purchases?

Did you try Parental Controls?
Apple TV: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls) - Apple Support
See if that does the trick: I think there's a way for you to request a password for purchases, but still be logged in.

How can I prevent Bridge from altering my photos?

HELP!!!
Within the past few days my Bridge CS4 program has been making my life miserable. I had been utilizing the program to batch photos from my extensive photo library, rename them, sort them (i.e., change sort/ordinal number), and the like without any difficulty and then suddenly, after executing such processes my thumbnails turned completely white and would not open in Bridge, Photoshop CS4 Extended - much less anything else. I tried reopening them as .jpg's, .psd's, .tiff's to no avail. I went into properties on each photo and checked the "open with" tab, and it noted that the photo was not recognized. I had some moderate success opening them with Quicktime Picture Viewer, but converting them back to a Bridge readable format (i.e., their original state) proved impossible. Having noticed that Quicktime had hijacked nearly my entire photo opening process, I uninstalled it in the hope that it would solve the problem. It didn't. I then went into Bridge and Photoshop CS4 preferences to try and modify how photos were opened, and couldn't seem to find anything applicable. I did, however, increase the memory and cache allocated to each program substantially.
Last night I ran into more problems with Bridge. While scanning both photo negatives and prints into Bridge and saving them into various files, I encountered the same problem indicated in paragraph one. I tried scanning several of them a second time and succeeded; however, I had to save them to a different file and give them dissimilar names in .tiff format. In the process I found more than a dozen ways to spell "Mexico," "Tokyo," and "Ukraine"! They would not save as .jpg's or .psd's.
I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP1, have a Pentium 4 Dual Core (2.8) processor, 4 GB Memory, Nvidia GE Force 7600 video card (yes, the drivers are up to date), and Hewlett Packard Photosmart C7180 and C7280 printers for scanning. All of the photos involved are stored on a Maxtor One Touch 1TB Turbo auxillary hard drive.
Also, could anyone suggest how I can get the SD/MMC card reader on my PC to work?
Thanks to any and all for assisting me with my problem.

Thank you curt y for your quick response. I have seen your recommendations on the adobe forums link in the past and many of your solutions
seem to have helped other people with Bridge problems. I took your suggestion and gave it a whirl - all preferences were restored to defaults - and the problem continues. I get the feeling the problems lies with the program's interaction with Windows.
Having tried a few more things, I've found that I can move the photo shell (the inscription underneath the thumbnail states, "Window Shell Common") to my desktop and open it there with Photoshop (i.e., going through the song and dance of "open with" and clicking on the CS4 icon, where it opens up in RAW). I must then move it over to Photoshop CS4 and save it as a .jpg or a .psd. Unfortunately, after all this it still won't open in Bridge. By all appearances, Bridge somehow has become corrupted and I'm probably going to have to do a complete Photoshop CS4 uninstall and reinstall.
I've spent hundreds - if not thousands - of hours scanning into my system some 10,000 photographs of my travels (yes, they are backed up on discs), and Bridge should not be negatively impacting my ability to organize and manipulation them as is happening now. If the uninstall/reinstall does not resolve the problem, I'll be back on this forum for more suggestions.
As for the card reader issue, I'm well aware of the 2GB/over 2GB issue. I typically use a 4GB or more card in my camera. I can download fine through my HP 7180 and 7280 card readers, but my HP 1518n card reader is a different story. I'll work a little more on it, too.
Thanks again.

Have you tried resetting your preferences by holding down the Ctrl key and starting Bridge? You will get a reset window, choose all 3 options.
The only thing I know about card readers is that there are 2 versions. One for cards of 2 gigs or less, and one for HD cards over 2 gigs. Make sure card and reader match.

Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) - In the preferences you can decide to 'Do Nothing' when a camera is connected.
Some versions also have this option in the iPhoto Preferences.

How can I prevent Firefox from cleaning my clipboard at exit (exit or closing firefox) ?

How can I prevent Firefox from cleaning my clipboard at exit (exit or closing firefox) ?
I am using FF 9.0.1 and the problem start from FF 5.0

You can't prevent that.<br />
If you've placed data on the clipboard in Firefox then you need to paste that data in the other program, if that is your intention, before closing Firefox.
