Can't seem to find my skype manager account
Help!I haven't been on my skype manager account in a few months - and now I don't see it at all? how can I access it?please help!thanks,Mary
You answered my first question indirectly. You presumably are using Time Machine to bacup your Mac to the Time Capsule. Feel free to confirm that explicitly.
You ignored my second question: "What are the exact steps you're doing to try to find them?"
iMovie projects are normally kept in the "Movies" folder at the top level of your user account. Unless you specifically excluded that folder, it should have been backed up by Time Machine.

Genius Bar lost a business financial file. Can't seem to find it in Time Machine. Gone back several days...Got Ideas?
You need to give me more info..
What did you take the Mac to the genius for??
What did they do to it?
Did you have TM setup at defaults doing backups hourly?
Are you using a Time Capsule? Did you ever backup the time capsule??
Please do a backup of your Time Machine backup right now.. in TC plug in a suitable sized USB drive and do an archive.. you can do nothing else while this is happening but it is crucial for you to have another copy of whatever you have.
Archive is a bit slow.. and the backup is slightly less useful.
The fastest method is plug the USB into your computer and copy and paste the backups.backupdb directly to the USB drive. It should copy at around 60GB/hr so calculate how long that will take. See instructions here. http://pondini.org/TM/18.html Assuming you are using a TC then you use method 4.. copying from a Network backup to local drive.
Never work directly from the original backup .. work just from this copy so anything you do can be reversed or recovered.
Read very carefully the methods of restoring files from TM.. it is a bit out of date but Pondini has the best details.
So Q14-17 here. http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
You can do a full recovery of the backup to a USB drive.. and then search for your file in more normal way.
Get professional help.. and this is where you need data recovery people who are familiar with apple TM backup format. Check local apple store or perhaps better local Apple independent repair business that are used to handling this kind of event.
Also talk to the company that makes the software as they must have to deal with people who manage to lose, corrupt or in some other way ruin their data and need to recover.. see what hints they can give you.
Surely at some point you pass your info to your accountant in the form of a computer backup file from your accounting package.
I have to admit I am surprised if you never backed up your business data file to a USB stick and put it in a filing cabinet at home or a hard disk at a friends place.. Cloud storage for your business files.. Did you depend totally on TM for backups? You never planned for a fire or theft of your computer and TC?? Or what has happened.. loss of computer files and failure of the backup? No greater teacher than the burnt hand that touching hot stuff isn't a good idea. Sorry .. it is a very hard lesson.. but electronic data storage on magnetic media is ever one byte away from being gone forever.. !! -
I downloaded the lateest update and I can't turn off my apps like I did on 6os. The 7os is different and I can't seem to find out if apps turn off now by just closing them. Can anyone explain this to me? Please

iOS 7 also allows apps to run while they aren't open.

Is there a "Large Fonts" feature in OS X? I can't seem to find one.
Hi all,
My mother just got an iMac 27". It is running at 2560x1440. However, at this resolution even on the big monitor the menu bars are quite as is the font on the menus. In windows which she used to use and which I use, there's a "Large Fonts" feature which increases the size of the font on menu bars, and the button on the window manager.
However, I can't seem to find this feature on the mac. I increased the cursor size. I increased the default size of window content in safari etc. And can incr. the size of the dock. But no where can I find a "large font" feature. I can drop the resolution, but this is obviously a bad solution as this just makes everything fuzzy and ugly. Is there any way to preserve resolution and incr. menubar sizes/font sizes? The zoom feature is does not have acceptable behavior to conveniently incr. menu size (most of the time it zooms the menus right out of the frame, and the PIP mode is also poor)
Any ideas? If there is no OS X built in solution, Is there a 3rd part solution to this?Well...it's fuzzy in the way that when you run an LCD on a non-native resolution (e.g. 1600x900 on 2560x1440) the text isn't sharp anymore. It's very notably ugly and pixelated. Windows would simply enlarge the font size but keep the native resolution which made the text nice looking even at higher resolution.
Hrm. This is very frustrating. Kinda wished I had discovered this before the return period. Seems like OS X has done a very half hearted accessibility. Just decreasing the resolution to increase the size seems kinda lazy. Both Windows, and even many linux window managers have features to adjust this for people with visual impairment without having to sacrifice the resolution. I suppose I could always install Windows on the Mac :-/
Is there not even a 3rd party solution or 3rd party mac window manager that might do this that anyone is aware of? My search turned up empty...
Much appreciated. -

While trying to set up caller ID for my personal account, I mistakenly thought I had to do that through skype manager. So I set up a skype manager, but I don't really need it. Is there a way to close that skype manager account?
Hi, Calrkuc,
Only Skype Customer Service can review the account and advise if what was created is a Skype Manager configuration or a regular Skype account. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
A few extra notes:
You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the webform and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype, and you will receive a reply to the account's registered e-mail address.

The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
Another possibility is to use:

I can't seem to find a function to check to see if a connection was success
Hello everyone. I'm running into 2 problems that I can't seem to find functions for after reading the java API on socket and serverSocket.
If a client closed a connection on my server, like if someone telnets into my server, then closes the console, i get the following:
Event from: localhost-> null
Exception in thread "Thread-1" java.lang.NullPointerException
at server.MultiThreadServer.run(MultiThreadServer.java:62)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:803)This is the check i do to avoid getting this, but it doesn't seem to work:
//close a connection on this condition.
if(csocket.getRemoteSocketAddress() == null || input.equals("bye"))
System.out.println("Connection closed by client.");
break;
}If I attempt to run a server socket on a socket that is already being used, I'd like to print out a statement saying its being used and do something about it, like let the user enter another port number. Right now I have:
public class MainTest {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
//get console input
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter port to run server on: ");
String input = stdin.readLine();
int servPort = Integer.parseInt(input);
try
ServerSocket ssock = new ServerSocket(servPort);
System.out.println("Listening on : " + ssock);
while (true) {
//waiting for client to connect to server socket
Socket sock = ssock.accept();
System.out.println(sock + " connected.");
//get host information
InetAddress clientIa = sock.getInetAddress( );
String clientName = clientIa.getHostName();
String clientIp = clientIa.getHostAddress();
int localPort = sock.getLocalPort();
System.out.println("hostname: "+clientName +
'\n' + "Ip address: " + clientIp
+":"+ localPort + "\n\n");
new Thread(new MultiThreadServer(sock)).start();
catch(IOException e)
e.printStackTrace();
}Me catching the IOException is too broad....if anything goes wrong it will spit out the error and stop program execution as it should.
I tried
if(ssock.isClosed()) { System.out.println("Socket is being used, try another");but it doesn't work.
Also inside my server program I'm connecting to another server and if that other server isn't running I'd like to print out an error message stating that.
Right now it will just say: Connection Refused if its not running.
here's that code:
public class MultiThreadServer implements Runnable {
Socket csocket;
MultiThreadServer(Socket csocket) {
this.csocket = csocket;
public void run() {
try {
//setting up channel to recieve events from the omnibus server
BufferedReader in= new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
csocket.getInputStream()));
//This socket will be used to communicate with the reciever
//we will need a new socket each time because this is a multi-threaded
//server thus, the (outputServ) will need to be
//multi threaded to handle all the output.
Socket outputServ = new Socket("localhost",1234);
if(outputServ.getLocalSocketAddress() == null)
System.out.println("OutputServer isn't running...");
//Setting up channel to send data to outputserv
PrintWriter out
= new PrintWriter(
new OutputStreamWriter(
outputServ.getOutputStream()));
while(true)
//accepting events from omnibus server and storing them
//in a string for later processing.
String input = in.readLine();
//accepting and printing out events from omnibus server
//also printing out connected client information
System.out.println("Event from: " + csocket.getInetAddress().getHostName()
+"-> "+ input +"\n");
out.println(input);
out.flush();
//close a connection on this condition.
if(csocket.getRemoteSocketAddress() == null || input.equals("bye"))
System.out.println("Connection closed by client.");
break;
//cleaning up
in.close();
out.close();
outputServ.close();
csocket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(e);
e.printStackTrace();
}Both those conditions don't seem to work, if a client closes a connection it doesn't respond and if the server isn't running on port 1234, i get that connection refused.
Any help would be great!Thanks for the help guys!
adding -1 to the stream worked perfect:
i have it like this:
String input;
//accepting events from omnibus server and storing them
//in a string for later processing.
while ((input = in.readLine()) != null)
//accepting and printing out events from omnibus server
//also printing out connected client information
System.out.println("Event from: " + csocket.getInetAddress().getHostName()
+"-> "+ input +"\n");
out.flush();
out.println(input);
out.flush();
//close a connection on this condition.
if(in.read() == -1)
System.out.println("Connection closed by client.");
break;
//cleaning up
in.close();
out.close();
outputServ.close();
csocket.close();
} I had one last question, when I catch a socketExpection, such as, if the user enters a port that is already in use, I would like to give them the chance to enter another port before stopping the program.
I'm not sure how I can do this with exceptions though, like i have:
//setting up sockets
ServerSocket ssock = null;
Socket sock = null;
try
//setting up server to run on servPort
ssock = new ServerSocket(servPort);
catch (SocketException e )
System.out.println ("Socket error: " + e);
}now inside that catch block, is there a way for me to allow the user to enter another socket and try again? or am I approaching this wrong?
while(true)
if the port is already been used
allow the user to enter in another port number
else
break;
}I'm confused on how this will work though becuase:
once it hits this line:
ssock = new ServerSocket(servPort);the exception is thrown and it jumps down to the catch block,
now inside that catch block how would I let the user enter in another port number and try this line of code again?
ssock = new ServerSocket(servPort); //this time with the new servPort number?
Thanks! -
I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store.
How do I "log out" or "sign out" of iCloud on my iPhone? There is an option to delete the account, but I just want to log off. I want to keep the account name for future use.@fernandamagalhaes
It looks like the article below has the information you are looking for.
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
Note: If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help).
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
Note: If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.

I'm trying to update iPhoto 7.1.5 on my old iMac (running 10.9.5) to current versions so I can get my photos onto iCloud to access from my iPad. I can't seem to find an upgrade route that will work? Any suggestions?
For Mavericks you need to upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1.
You cannot buy this version from the AppStore, since the current version is iPhoto 9.6, and that requires Yosemite. The easiest route for you would be to upgrade to Yosemite. Then you can simply buy the newest version of iPhoto from the App Store and can use iCloud Photo Library (iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ), once it has been release for the Mac as well early next year.
If you want to stick with Mavericks, you'll have limited iCloud features, only the Photo Streams (iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ), but no iCloud Drive (iCloud Drive FAQ) and iCloud Photo Library. And to upgrade iPhoto you need to buy an iPhoto '11 installer. It comes as part of iLife '11. You can try to buy a boxed version from Amazon or try to find it at eBay. Once installed on Mavericks, download the iPhoto '11 updaters from the apple Support Downloads page. -
The instagram icon on my iTunes says it has been downloaded but I can't seem to find it. Where do I find it?
Hi Charlene1018,
You can locate any of your iTunes media including apps in Finder by following this article:
Where are my iTunes files located?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
Locating the file for an item you see in iTunes
If you're not sure where some of the content you see in iTunes is stored, iTunes will also show you what it knows about your media in the Get Info window.
Select an item in iTunes and choose File > Get Info.
You can right-click on the 'Where' to get the option to Show in Finder (Mac OS X) or Show in Windows Explorer (Windows).
Cheers!
