Can't see my Trash Can?

On my iBook, and my old iMac G3, I just installed 10.3 on them, after changing out their hard drives, and for some reason, I do not have a Trash Can on my desktop. I can use 'Finder - File' move to trash, but I am curious as to why there is no trashcan on either.

veganjustice:
In OS X the Trash is located in the dock, not on the desktop. It should be the last item on the right (if the dock is on the bottom of the desktop).
Good luck.

This should help you empty what's currently in the trash, but is no guarantee you got everything related to MacKiller off the drive. See Ogelthorpe's link.

How do I change the icloud account on my iphone? I want to use the same account for all my apple devices (macbook air and imac and iphone). I can't see where I can amend the iphone account because it is in grey?

I want to use the same account for all my apple devices (macbook air, imac and iphone). I can't see how I can amend the iphone account because it is in grey? I also can't remember the password for this account so i can't even delete it and start again?
Help!
Thanks

Deleting an iCloud account only deletes it from the Device, not from iCloud. In iOS 8, the name of this setting changed to "Sign Out" as that is a better reflection of what actually happens. Your iCloud data remains on the server, available to devices still signed into the account, but the device you sign out of the account on is disconnected from the account, and as a result, the iCloud data from that account is removed from the device. It will redownload to the device should you sign back into the account.
The only issue you'll run into when you switch between accounts is with my photo stream photos older than 30 days. When you delete (or sign out of) and account, your photo stream photos are deleted along with the other data from the account in question. However, unlike other data which remains on the server and can redownload to your device when you sign back in, my photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. When you sign back in, you will only get back my photo stream photos added in the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer in iCloud to redownload). Like other account data, any my photo stream photos on your other devices signed into the account are unaffected by this. If you want to keep older my photo stream photos on your device as you change iCloud accounts, save them to your camera roll before deleting (signing out of) the account.

Can not see some videos, Can not install Activex 9.o47

My name is Alex, I have been working on getting flash to play
for about 3 weeks.
I have uninstalled both shockwave and flash many many times
using all different sites. I have turned off my firewall,
anti spy, and antivirus when downloading. I have shut
everything down that was running. I have closed everything.
I have restarted each time between downloads. I have then
downloaded the install from many many sites. Closed everything, and
installed.
I have uninstalled from ADD/Remove. I have reinstalled. Now,
when I go to ADD/Remove programs it shows that both Flash and
Shockwave are there.
Seriously, I have downloaded and uninstalled and installed so
many times from so many sites.
Each time the screen shows I have done it successfully. But I
cannot get it to play. I have turned off all popup blockers that I
know of.
I still run my anti virus, firewall spyware etc. But says
there is nothing to prevent Flash from playing some of the pages I
use to see.
I have done a Reg clean. And I have installed after all that
and still does not work.
I am the admin on the computer and I am the only one who runs
it. I use firefox for my browser but I tried to get it in IE and
still nothing.
Everything was going absolutely fine till I done the stupid
mistake of updating my Flash player,
seen then my computer is going banana, I don't understand why
is that,
I can actually see U tube videos, but I can not see other
videos like trailers from IMDB, <Your browser is blocking
display of our video player. If you would like to see the video,
please turn off any ad-blocking or Flash-blocking software that you
are using>.
That's what he said on the screen where the video suppose to
play, I can only see advertising, It should be the other way
around,
and even the news on yahoo I can not see them, only ads.
I had no problems before, no pop up I could see the videos
absolutely fine and especially no ADS and then that days,
I wish I could cancel that day, I'm try to fix this problems
all ready 3 weeks and nothing, I did try everything but nothing.
I have download flash Player 9.0.47.0 manage to install but
found impossible to install Activex 9.0.47.0 seems to be impossible
I do know why. disinstall everything reinstall but nothing,
# Select Start.
# Select Run.
# Type cmd
# In the command window, type the following:
uninstall_flash_player.exe /clean
The answer is: uninstall_flash_player.exe is not recognised
as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
does not work, try million of time, does not work.
Does anybody know why?

HELP! I have a .mov and PC people can't see it. Can I reformat?

HELP PLEASE!
I am a relative novice to web building and QT, and have a problem that should be easy for SOMEONE out there to help me with...
I am hearing from TOO many PC people that they can not view my video (.mov, @40mb) on my website. Some hear the sound but see no images, some see or hear nothing.
I have a report from someone with XP Pro that it is just fine, but his XP Home gives him just sound. I have a "savvy PCer" who has no problem at all. Most get a quicktime error, need ActiveX enabled or get no message (or video) at all.
I want to either put up a format that as many Mac and PC users as possible can see, or, I can put a "click here if you are on a PC" button to take them to a new page with a better format for these people.
I would prefer the viewer NOT have to download ANYTHING to view the movie... Cause nobody really wants the hassle of that, and these are potential clients.
This is the code I have in the site, if it helps... is it just a simple code change?
<embed src="images/movie.mov" width="336" height="274.5" loop="False" align="middle" autoplay="true" controller="true" pluginspage="http://apple.com/quicktime/download/" border="3"> </embed>
How do I save a Windows Media Player format? Do I need to buy some third party software?
PLEASE, EXPERTS OF THE WORLD, HELP! I really want to fix this TODAY for new company launch!!

As mentioned by the good folks above, you're embedding your movie, but you're not telling the browser which plugin to use. Also, for Internet Explorer, you need to use an <object> element and pass in additional <param>s. below is some code that should work for you. It uses both <object> and <embed> for maximum compatability:
<object<br>
classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
height="290.5"
width="336"
<param name="src" value="images/movie.mov"/>
<param name="scale" value="aspect" />
<param name="controller" value="true" />
<param name="autoplay" value="true" />
<embed<br>
type="video/quicktime"
pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/"
height="290.5"
width="336"
src="images/movie.mov"
scale="aspect"
controller="true" //the controller adds 16px to height
autoplay="true"
/>
</object>
The HTML code above contains an <object> element which contains several <param> elements and an <embed> element. Here is a breif description of what each of the <embed> parameters are doing:
1. type specifies the MIME type of the streaming media so that the web browser knows which plugin to play the streaming media with. Do not change the value of this parameter.
2. pluginspage this is an optional parameter which gives the user a location that they can download the appropriate plugin from. Do not change the value of this parameter.
3. height refers to the media display height in pixels. If this parameter is not provided, the media will display using its actual hieght. When used it is important to remember to add 16 pixels to the height value if the controller bar will also be used.
4. width refers to the media display width in pixels. If this parameter is not provided, the media will display using its actual width.
5. src refers to the URL or location of the reference movie. The URL can be relative or absolute.
6. scale is an optional value that will scale the media display according to the height and width specified multiplied by the value given. The default value is 1 (i.e. 1x). If you used a 2, the display would be twice as big as the height and width specified (i.e. 2x). You can also use the values "tofit" and "aspect". "tofit" will stretch or compress (change the apsect of) the movie to fit the height and width specified. "aspect" will fit the movie as closely as possible to the height and width specified without changing its aspect ratio.
7. controller is an optional parameter that will not display the controller bar if the value given is "false". The default value is "true". When displayed, the controller bar will use 16 pixels from the value provided in the height parameter.
8. autoplay is an optional parameter that will cause the media to not automatically play if the value given is "false". The default value is "true".
The <embed> element and its parameters are supported by most web browsers except for Internet Explorer. This is why the <embed> element is nested inside the <object> element. Notice that the <object> element has its own height and width parameters. Also, the <object> element contains classid and codebase parameters which are required for your media to work properly inside of Internet Explorer. Do not change the values of classid and codebase.
The <param> elements are used to pass additional parameters to Internet Explorer along with the <object> element. Notice that each of the <param> elements duplicate the remaining parameters provided in the <embed> element with the exception of the type and pluginspage parameters, which are specific to the <embed> element. Additional parameters for the <embed> and <object> elements can be found at Apple Computer Inc.'s QuickTime HTML Scripting Tutorial.

Blog entry: macs can't see, pc's can?

I am unable to view the text or main photo of my blog entry. It looks fine in iWeb, and all PC users can view - just not those on a mac? I can't see the text or main photo on my mac at work either. I have tried re-publishing several times, but for some reason, this blog entry is giving me problems. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Can't see any tumbnails, Can't create proxy.

Hello,
I'm new into the FCS support and I do have a problem now with my FinalCutServer version 1.5.2 running on an Xserver with V-trak.
First of all everything was running correctly but after some one did "propagate permissions" on my root harddrive everything was messed up ofcourse.
I was able to create a back-up of the FCS database (production media and proxy media folders are stored on the V-trak).
I did a complete clean install of the server and FCS and did place back the backup.
Everthing works fine now but the only problem is that I can't see any thumbnails, when I rightclick on an image and click on View Original that all works perfect. When I click in the top and then at the left the landscape looking icon I get the error message that he can't create a proxy.
This also happens with new images that go into FCS.
I did already try to right-click on an image and then Analyze or re-create proxy but none of that works.
Is there anyone who can help me or that have the same issues after restoring a back-up?
Kindest regards,
Luc Janssen
Update: Maybe important to know, my Proxies.bundle is empty.

Sounds like propagating the permissions is what screwed you up, as I'm sure you're aware. That's something that has to be adjusted in the Server Admin app, not in FCSvr. How does FCSvr connect to the storage? Whatever user it's connected as needs to have read/write access to your proxies bundle and also the directory in which it lives. It looks like it doesn't have write access, which explains why it's empty, so proxies/thumbnails/poster frames cannot be generated. Go to the "Search All Jobs" list and see what it says when you try to generate a proxy or thumbnail - I'm guessing you'll see a bunch of FAIL's. Open one of the jobs and look for the error message - I'm betting you'll see something to the effect of "Could not be created: Permission denied."
Permissions changes can really screw your distribution up - I find that permissions issues are what plague my own distribution almost weekly. If you have a distribution where your users have Finder-level access to the storage that FCSvr is cataloging, you may have situations where your users will create folders and files that FCSvr doesn't have write or even read access to, because of various reasons (maybe the user copied the folder/file from elsewhere, maybe their umask is 022, etc). That can lead to wanting to use Server Admin's "Propagate Permissions" functionality, which if used improperly can cripple your entire distribution.
Good luck.

If it were me, I'd get a new hard drive or SSD and put it in an external enclosure. Boot into the recovery partition, format the new drive (not the old one) and install the OS to it. Shut down the Mac, open it up, and swap the drives. You may be able to read your data from the old one externally if you're lucky. If you're very lucky you may be able to use Migration Assistant to move all your stuff to the new drive.
Look at ifixit.com for the exact procedure to get to the drive on your model. If it's a unibody it's pretty simple.

Can't see Playlists but can see songs when using iTunes in iPhoto

When I make a slideshow in iPhoto and try to select a playlist I made in iTunes, I can't see the playlists. I can see individual songs, but the playlists don't show up. I get the window with Sample, Garage Band and then iTunes, but there are no sub-categories under iTunes and none appear when I make the window larger. I'm a new mac user, so am I missing something obvious?

I have the same issues since I upgraded to iTunes 7. I dont even see the iTunes playlist in the iWeb. Any help/information is appreciated.

When using Facetime, the person on the other end can't see me - they can hear me, I can see and hear them. Any help? I have a 4S.

I have succesfully used it in the past without problems.

Hi mduggan,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the other person can't see you during a FaceTime call, first use the Camera app on the iPhone to make sure the camera is working properly. If you don't see an image when using the Camera app, try these troubleshooting steps first:
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
You can find these steps and more information here:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
If the camera is working normally, next troubleshoot FaceTime using the steps in this article:

All the best,

Character Count in Message app too pale, I can't see it. Can I make it bigger & black instead of grey

Character Count in Message app too small and pale, I can't see it.
(My eyes, like the rest of me, are over 50)
I have used Settings - Accessibility to increase font size which is wonderful so now I can read what I'm typing, but still cant see the character count.
Can I make the charater count use a bigger font?
Can I have it black instead of grey?
ANd can I change the whilte-on-green for sent messages into well constrasted colours (like the old iPhone 3G?) so I can read them too?

Thank you Malcolm, that was a good idea ... it seems to have improved the text in the messages I;ve received and a slight improvement in the white-on-green of the snet messages.
Sadly did not affect the character count.
I fear it begins to look as if the character count has been overlooked by the designers at Apple and is left "outside" the range of things affected by the accessibility options. What do you think?

HT204053 I have just bought a new iPad but I can't see how I can sync all my iPhone photos that are stored on the iCloud onto my iPad. Can someone help?

I have just bought the new iPad but can't see how I would sync all my iPhone photos that are stored on iCloud onto my iPad. Can someone help?

Photos on the camera roll can be included in an icloud backup from an iOS device (if camera roll is turned on). But getting the photos back from a backup is risky. Many users have performed restore operations from a backup only to discover the photos were not returned. icloud is primarily used to sync photos to other devices using photo stream - but only new photos taken after the stream is turned on in Settings>icloud will actually be synced, not old photos.
Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage, tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
IMPORTANT...
Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album). You can then sync the photos to the iPad.
