Champaign for Raydamonster

For some three weeks I had been stuck in the iTunes authorization loop; where when trying to play my purchased music old accounts were presented demanding passwords, current account password wouldn't even be accepted to play music, the whole roundabout over and over. Posted here several times, nada, emailed iTunes help section, goofy nada, spoke with an 'upper' tech, obscure nada. Then through 'search'I struck onto a 12/19/08 post by Raydamonster describing exactly how to solve this frequent issue of .can't get authorized' to play purchased music. I did it today; smooth as silk, and playing all new and old selections regardless of the account name they were purchased under.
His post should be archived under 'stickies' for various categories of issues that received positive responses. Thanks Raydamonster, have one on me.

Hi Kushagra,
You are correct in questioning whether you'll "be able to operate mac with the same ease." You won't, at least for awhile. I believe that with proper guidance, attitude and some resourcefulness, you'll soon find it "easier" to use. You can also install Windows on it so if there's an app you need you can use it, or if you just get lonesome for Windows, you can still use it, but I suspect that will happen less and less. Good luck to you.

  • Just one click away from Wayback Machine's archives of current page (Request JavaScript codes for bookmarklet)

    I wish I can click on a bookmarklet on the Bookmarks bar to display the Wayback Machine's search results for the current page. In other words, I wish there can be a bookmarklet that opens the following URL:
    http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/'''''URL_of_current_page'''''
    I know I can drag a bookmarklet to the Bookmarks bar, and then, from its righ-click Properties menu, change the Location text to the JavaScript codes which opens the above Wayback Machine's URL. I just know nothing about programming.
    So, could someone assist me with the needed JavaScript?
    Thanks.
    PS: I know there are some add-ons that deals with WaybackMachine, such as "Resurrect Pages" or "Wayback Machine 20100602". But I have not found one that does what I want.

    Thank you very much.
    I hide the label text of this bookmarklet and use a Wayback Machine favicon for it. Now I have an icon on the Bookmarks bar, a click on which takes me to the old vesions of the current web page.
    I will drink a glass of champaigne for that.

  • Who should I contact for a photo taken by iphone that could be a potential advertising idea.

    I just found something AMAZING from a picture taken from an iphone and I want to contact the advertising department. (It is a great idea for advertising the big screen of iphone 6 plus)
    I am an international student from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Two day's ago there was a lunar eclipse and I took a picture of the moon with my iphone 5s with the aid of a telescope. I was stunning with great details of craters and valleys. Today I received my iphone 6 plus. With the bigger screen I observed the picture carefully and suddenly I found a red dot on the moon. Then I zoomed in and OMG it is a satellite! I cannot believe I can actually take a picture of human satellite via a cell phone. I am truly impressed by the power of large screen of iphone 6 plus!
    Some of my friends think I should contact Apple because they think it is a "million-dollar idea". I just want to share my surprise to more people and show them that this new iphone is just spectacular!
    So who is the best person I should contact? Thanks a lot!

    Thanks Colin.
    But I have tried Apple Care before and they always tell me it´s a matter for Apple Retail, of which they are not a part.
    Is there not an Apple Customer Complaints number or better still, e-mail address? I am sick of speaking to (usually rather arrogant) Dutch techies who aren´t interested in helping me.
    As for the problem, I had a feeling it´d be the logic board. They have twice told me that they´d repaired it. Seems like they´ve just done two bodge jobs to me. Not the kind of service I would expect from Apple.
    Any other ideas from anybody? Someone must know something...?

  • Wrong 'mini dvi to video' adapter for my 12" Powerbook 1.33

    I recently bought the M9319 mini dvi - video adapter for my 12" Powerbook 1.33 to find that the mini dvi on the adapter is a different size to the one on the computer and the adapters supplied with the computer.
    I've been doing a bit of research into this and it seems a bit of a grey area. Apple have not made it clear in advertising this product that it is only suitable for the newest 12" Powerbooks and even state that it will work with a 1.33 machine in their following article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86507
    Has anyone had a similar experience, or suggest an alternative product that will work? Did Apple make an older version that works with the 1.33?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Graeme.

    Just took the adapter to my local Apple store and they identified it as a mini VGA to video adapter - not what it said on the packaging!
    I've noticed a few posts with this problem, so just double check before you leave the store that the packaging matches the product.

  • Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter for eMac ?

    Hi,
    I use an Apple Mini DVI to VGA on my eMac to expand my monitor space, connect to an old Pinceton 15" lcd, both are on 1024 x 768 res in millions colors, and work fine.
    My question is I have plan to buy an Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter since some of my project require a transfer process to an old vcr or Sony TRV-27 mini dv cam.
    Would the adapter compatible for my eMac mini DVI port ? because eMac is not mentioned as apple compatible for this adapter at apple store, yet there is a review said it work great on ones eMac.
    Anybody else using this adapter that would share with me ?
    Thank you.

    look like it is indeed an apple mini vga adapter that I use, and now I need an adapter that allow me to connect to a TV, VCR or Mini-DV camcorder.
    will that Apple Mini-DVI to Video adapter compatible to my eMac. Or do they have mini-vga to video adapter on aapple store.
    Thank you any information.

  • Can I purchase Creative Cloud subscriptions for longer than one year at a time?

    I work in the design department of a large business, currently using Creative Suite 6 (Design Standard edition, which includes PS and AI).
    I'd like to get the some of the new CC features, but my manager won't commit to a turnkey month-to-month or even annual rental of Creative Cloud apps (it's a pain for our department's purchaser to have to do orders more than once a year). That said, if they could take care of, say, two years at once, I might get the software. Is this an option? I'm one of only a few folks who use Adobe software (it's not a design business; we're just part of a small design department, and all software purchases need to go through this person, after which they're reimbursed). I'm not interested in any of the extra storage or central administration options that come with the higher priced business subscription.
    Thanks!

    Are there any unique benefits that come with my paid membership?
    Yes, as a member of Creative Cloud, you get many benefits that you do not get when you purchase a traditional shrinkwrapped product:
    Access to both the Mac OS and Windows® versions of the desktop applications and the ability to install them on your primary computer and one backup computer. So, if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, you can install your applications on both as long as they are not running at the same time.

  • Any ideas for a status or "at a glance" splash screen / presentation?

    This is an idea I've been tossing around and wanted to know if there was something easy out there that would accomplish this...
    I'd like to mount a monitor in one of our common areas for the management team and have it display current statuses of some of our IT features/services and maybe quick bits on what we are currently working on, major issues, etc... 
    I've seen some company lobbies with similar setups that display company-wide information, weather, etc.. so I know the capability is out there but I don't know squat regarding what that would entail. The easier, the better, naturally... as I don't want this to turn into an entire job position updating it, haha. But something that I could hopefully remotely update would be nice.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

  • Looking for Daily Calendar At-a-Glance App

    I'd love to find an app that will post an alert to my iPhone each morning listing out my day's calendar events. Anyone know of one? For what it's worth, I have 4 active calendars in Calendar app.

    I don't know of any apps like the one you want; however, there is probably something out there that will do the job. I did want to suggest Google Calendar, which will send you email and SMS reminders about events and things you have put on your calendar. You might already be aware of this, so if you are, just disregard. I just wanted to suggest it in case you weren't aware of it. I use it all the time, and it's very handy. 

  • Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

    In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

    Greetings Judith,
    Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
    Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed.  By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
    Example:
    Today is 4-16-2012.
    If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
    Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
    Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone.  If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
    Once the events are removed go back to  iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can a family member use my iCloud storage for photos?

    Hope I'm not being obtuse, but the answer to this isn't clear to me from the various "help" menus.
    The situation is complicated by my living 50 miles from my elderly father.
    I need about 50 GB for my photos, but have to pay for 200, of course.
    So, is there a way for my Dad, who is a member of my iCloud/App/Whatever family to move HIS photo library from HIS computer to MY iCloud account without having to purchase more iCloud space for his personal account? (His photo library also - barely - exceeds the limit of the next increment of storage available so that i'll have to buy him 200GB if there isn't a way to share the storage from my iC account.
    Hope this question is understandable - I don't know how else to frame it.
    Thank you for all responses.

    Duh! Nevermind. I think I definitely WAS being obtuse about how to share photos.

  • How can I create a new iCloud account for a familiy member having a new iDevice and reuse one of my aliases for it

    Hi there,
    I moved into iCloud from the very beginning and started with one iCloud account for me and my family, making use of email aliases for family members. Now the number of personal iDevices grows and I want to create a new and separate iCloud Account for my son. The pity is, that I reserved his full name already as alias address on my initial iCloud account. If I now delete this alias, can I create a new account with the former alias as new primary email address?
    Or is there at least any transfer procedure supported for aliases between different accounts?
    Thanks for your help, lauterbachj

    Couldn't agree more... the folks who are getting penalized for this are the early adopters of .Mac/iCloud dating from the days when the only way to implement a "family" account was to use aliases. Now all my kids' / my wife's name aliases sit in my account, unable to move. I guess the good news is that if I delete them nobody else will get them, but this seems a pretty poor consolation.
    Would it really be so difficult to implement a "move this alias to another iCloud account" option that requires the "sender" and "receiver" to exchange some sort of code to implement the transation in order to prevent fraud?

  • How can I Migrate/Split itunes/icloud account for a large family now that they have family sharing

    Ok, now that Apple has finally come out with family sharing I need to get things sorted out and I think it is going to be a mess. I have 6 family members (my spouse and 4 children) all sharing/using one itunes account. For parental reasons this made perfect sense. Now with the the advent of family sharing and such we have alot of sorting and migrating to do and I am very unsure how to go about it. Here is what we have.
    Myself - I have a 64GB iPad 3 and a 64GB iPhone 5
    Spouse - 64GB iPhone 5
    Children - x4 16GB iPhone 5C (pink, blue, green, and a yellow)
    We have had one itunes account now for several years, we used to have x4 16GB iphone 4's and a 16GB iPod touch 4 so we needed it to be shared at the time. We all have different Game Center ID's and Facetime/iMessages are all setup to the phone numbers (aside from mine which also uses the itunes e-mail). We currently have 1 upgraded icloud account with 200GB of storage on it (love the new tiers). So here are the questions.
    1) How do I go about using and isolating all the devices so they can all use the iCloud storage? Right now if I try and setup backups by device under the what to backup there is no simple "Full Backup" option, they have all the categories separated. I cannot backup my daughters contacts without forcing a merging of them and so on. Same thing with Documents and Data. Would I need to setup a different iCloud account for each device now?
    2) iTunes Music/App purchases. Now that they have a family sharing function I am assuming it would be a good time to separate all the devices (aside from my personal iPad/iPhone). If I understand correctly we need to setup a new itunes account for each and link them with family sharing, does this then allow us to disperse/move items from a singular to the multiple account (at least a one time option to move around) or would it simply be shared off the original account? My daughter for example will be 18 next summer and as such no longer under our care. How do we move her items to her account? She has a lot of purchased Music. Now keep in mind I am talking about an account for someone who was 12 when she had her first device and as such needed to be under her parents.
    I just want to state that repurchasing things is NOT an option, and to be frank,  according to Canadian laws pertaining to *licensing* we actually own the product if we paid for it and have the right to transfer the ownership thereof. This issue went through the courts regarding used copies of OEM editions of Microsoft Windows several years ago and they closed the legal *license* vs ownership separation.

    Go to appleid.apple.com to manage the ID, sign in and select to the Name, ID and Email Addresses section, then change the birth date on the bottom right.  At the present time you may not be able to enter the correct birth date, but others have had success changing the year to 2000, or the date to 1/1/2001, both of which will have child ID status.

  • One apple ID for multiple family members

    Hi,
    We are new to the Iphone products.  We have shared an Apple ID since christmas with my two children to help control what they are downloading etc on thier Iphones.  Currently for some unknown reason when one of my children send me text message it comes accross to my phone as an email address which is what is used as our apple ID from when I originally got us set up for the ipods from years ago.  since getting the Iphones this all of a sudden seams to be an issue with only one of our phones. 
    Any suggestions how to fix this?  We deleted the icloud accounts, and have done the "soft" reimage per verizon wireless.  Do we really have to set our children up with thier own email addresses and Apple ID's too? 
    Any suggestions would be helpful.
    thank you,

    To fix this go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
    1.    Either uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both phones; or
    2.    If you want to continue to receive iMessages at this email address on one of your phones, on the other phone tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a different Apple ID (so both phones will be using a different Apple ID for iMessage).  Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores.  It does not need to be the same as the ID you are using for iMessage, FaceTime and other services.
    Because you are  using the same Apple ID for iMessage. To prevent this, on one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the Apple ID, sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID.  Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for purchasing; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud and other services.
    Also, to prevent merging your calendars and contacts if you are syncing these to the same iCloud account, be sure to set up separate iCloud accounts on each phone with separated IDs.
