Can't rectify a problem after trying to delete the Movie folder from iDisk
A little while ago I deleted the folder named "Movies" from my iDisk. I had never used it so I thought I could just get rid of it. Since then whenever I start the laptop, presumably at the stage it syncs the iDisk, I get the message.. ...There is a problem deleting the folder "Movies" . You do not have permission to delete this folder. You can check your permissions in the Info panel in the Finder.
Its as if the command to try to delete this folder is undoable but simply won't go away. Its really irritating. I accept I'll have to live with the folder, I just want to get rid of the recurring message.
I can see now that the Movie folder is one I'm going to have to live with!
How can I get back to the default folder setup so this message doesn't come up any more.
By the way, The "permissions" on the iDisk say that I have read / write privileges.
Many thanks... iain B

Not true at all.
You only buy the right to your own personal use.
You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
This is illegal. There is no doubt about it -

I accidentally deleted the documents folder from my hard drive. can I recover it?
I accidentally deleted the documents folder (and its contents) from my ibook hard drive. Can I recover it?
It takes a really expensive data recovery service to get back things that have been deleted.
You could try Data Rescue 3, if you're desperate to get the documents back.

System Requirements:
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue_sysreq.php
If you want to try this, stop using the iBook immediately, and wait until you get the recovery software because every time you save something to your hard drive (even if it's only a link in your browser history), you risk overwriting the files you deleted. -

Can i safely delete the indexedDB folder from profile? 3gb+ is alot
saving a backup of profile and discovered 3gb folder indexedDB was wondering if its safe to delete...or what it is even for.
This folder is used for use by applications to store data for offline usage.
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Web Content and User Data
You would normally have to give Firefox permission to store data this way, so you should know where it comes from.
You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the <b>about:permissions</b> page or for the current domain via the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar and click "More Information" to open "Page Info" and go to the Permissions tab.

I can't get imovie to open after trying to shift the image from my macbook pro to the tv screen like I have done many times before. If I double click on the imovie icon, imovie doesn't open, but the strip across the top shows iMovie, file, edit , clip, view, text share window help tabs across the top. The iMovie window will appear if I click on the iMovie icon on the dock for a few seconds, or if I do control F3 at the same time, but when I click on the window it disappears. When I hover the mouse over the iMovie window that appears the window has a blue border around it. when I move the mouse outside the iMovie window the blue border goes away. If I sweep 4 fingers from the top of the screen down, the screen dims a little but the iMovie window doesn't appear. If I click play under the view tab I can hear audio, but still no iMovie window. It's as if the window is being blocked by the desk top somehow.

I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?
Did you manage to fix the issue?
I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update! -
