Deleting Conversations after chatting? Dont want them to show up again

I really like the Imessages beta application, but when I am done with a conversation and close it or delete it, the next time the person contacts me the history is there. How to I keep it from bringing up recent conversations? Much like the iphone, when you swipe and delete the converation its gone??
Thanks..

Hi,
Messages beta seems to be also keeping iMessages syncs in your Home Folder/Library/Messages
Go to the Finder > Go Menu and hold down the ALT key and then select Library that appears.
In there select Messages and open it.
The Attachments folder seems to deal with Pics-in-Chats and the like.
The various Chat.bd.xx files seems to be the sync info.
It seems that messages calls things back from this folder despite also storing Chats of any sort - now by default - in your Home Folder/Documents/iChats (this is the default place for iChat and you may have changed this)
The iChats folder contains sub folders by date.
There is no setting to change this behaviour only this manual work around.
I would open the Chat.db files with TextEdit to make sure you are deleting what you want.
I have not found a way to delete just certain bits and keep others.

Nevermind that first part as I forgot that nothing shows up for the Nano at all in Device Manager,
The 2nd half of my reply still applies:
Otherwise, try uninstalling all USB root controlllers from your system, rebooting your PC, and reconnecting your Nano. This root controller drivers will automatically be re-installed upon reboot.

i have newest version macbook air with Lion.
and while calling someone via skype, i dont want them to hear what im hearing on the computer such as Itunes, youtube, or whatever comes out of speaker.
samething happends when im using headphones.
i wanna listen to the music or watch youtube video during the call,
but it is almost impossible b/c my gf can hear the sound coming off the computer much louder than my actual voice.
this is not fun.

You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
You need to get a new computer or a refurbished one.

Get rid of newsstand app i have kids. i dont want them to even search on ****. even though they are blooked from downloading., get rid of newsstand app i have kids. i dont want them to even search on ****. even though they are blooked from downloading.

Get rid of the newsstand app or put parental controls on it. Apple is being irresponsible. I want my kids to be able to read books with their iPod but not be exposed to ****.Even though they can't download it I don't want them to search or browse on **** topics.

If you've set parental controls up for the app store then you've done all you can to prevent your children from finding/viewing content you dont want them to see in newsstand. Here is some information about newsstand:
Newsstand is a folder that organizes your subscription apps. While it does appear in Recent Apps like an app, you cannot place Newsstand in another folder.
Each publication is a standalone app. For additional assistance or information for that publication, refer to the app's built-in help or App Store listing.
Newsstand-compatible apps automatically move to Newsstand. Tap and hold apps to arrange them in Newsstand.
Note: You cannot drag other publications into Newsstand.
If a subscription app or publication does not appear in Newsstand, verify that the app supports the Newsstand feature.
So all the parental controls you've placed on the app store are effectively placed on newsstand.

I dont want to sync my iphone again

i just loose my half itunes library files on my windows pc, thats why i dont want to sync my iphone again couse if i do that i gonna loose the music that is in the phone, and is not on my pc, is there some way to copy or something like that media items on the phone to the pc so i can have my lost media back ?

I believe songs that you've purchased through iTunes can sync back to your computer. I know it's a capability with iPods, and I believe it's doable with the iPhone as well. I would suggest you call Apple though as they'll be able to tell you for certain if the Sync back option is available on the phone.

All slides in my project are set to 3 seconds. I want them to show for 5 seconds, and want to make this change in ALL the slides, not one by one. Any idea? Thanks

Would have been easier if you did this before creating the slides (Preferences, Defaults).
For existing slides:
Activate filmstrip
Use CTRL-A to select all slides
In Properties Panel change time to 5 secs

Problem with chapters playing when i dont want them to

OK let me explain what I have going here. I have 4 timelines for seperate videos in my project. Each has a motion button on the main menu that will play each one independantly and then return to the main menu and a "play it all" button the will play them in order. Ok all that works fine except for one thing. I want to video that shows in my thumbnails on the main menu to be a seperate video than what is actually in the feature DVD so after searching the forum I found a solution that is working. What I did was to take the video I wanted to use for the thumbnails and add that to the end of each timeline as a new chapter and then added a poster frame to control what showed in the thumbnail.
So to review.....each timeline had two chapters one that I want to show in the feature DVD and one that I do not.
By using the end actions oneach of the first videos in each timeline I can get the DVD to play from the beginning and skip the video I dont want seen. However, .....and here is the reason for my post FINALLY....when i use the chapter skip on the preview it of course skips to the video I dont want shown.....the last video on each timeline. So instead of having 4 chapters I now have 8....4 of each i would like to not be accessable at all.
Any way to to what I am wanting to do which essentially is tell Encore to skipthose chapters on the chapter skip button on the player??
thanks for any help in advance!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately not, if you are using that workaround. I can offer two suggestions:
1. Create your entire motion menu background (including the thumbnail animations) in Premiere or After Effects, then use that as a background video on your menu that is set up with buttons containing
only subpicture layers (no other layers, including thumbnail layers).
2. Keep your current workaround and add user operations to the timeline so that Next/Previous chapter navigation is prohibited.

Alphabetical playlists when I dont want them, any ideas?

Ive got a new ipod Nano, and despite having the tracks in my playlists in the order I want on itunes my Nano keeps making them alphabetical when I add them to it, which I dont want. Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance if you can help.

Deleted songs on iphone, I want them back. Songs still in itunes won't sync back

I imported these songs from my CD. Placed them in a playlist and synced my phone. Songs were fine. I later deleted the songs on my phone them to make room, but now I want them back. I tried re-syncing songs with the following options checked: manage songs manually. All songs, albums, and playlists are checked accordingly. I've synced and re-synced. The songs do not appear on my phone. However, when I look at iTunes. All songs and playlists are there and they are checked. What am I doing wrong?
Please help!

You can always go back into iTunes and repurchase the apps. iTunes will see you already paid for them and download them for free. If you purchased any of the apps on your iPhone and haven't synced since, you can transfer purchases off your iPhone to iTunes.

How do i delete someone from the gamecenter? they are listed as friend and i dont want them their-they are not in my contact list... please help

some kid wanted to play me in a game (who i dont know) and i played them- and no longer talk to them- but they are in my friends list in game center- they are not in my contact list..... how can i get them out of my gamecenter friends???

The instruction should read "Settings > General > Usage > Music > All Music > Swipe right to left > Delete".
But doing so may have the undesirable effect of screwing up artwork and/or playback stability (maybe this was fixed, but this method cause a lot of grief in iOS 6 and early in iOS 7).
But try this -- connect the iPad to iTunes, and if you're not in manual sync mode then enable that and apply the change. Then while connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPad through iTunes and see if you can delete the albums that way.

With recent calls , is it possible to save certain calls without saving them to contacts and delete the ones i dont want?

My question is ,
with the recent calls is the a way to save certain calls without saving them as contacts, and delete the others that i dont need? I am a truck driver and i need only certain calls during the day and if i could delete only the ones that arent needed for the day and keep the others that would make the day run smoother. Each is different and when the day is finished then i would delete the ones i needed for the day and start all over again. Is this possible?

I think you would have to reinstall the keys seeing that if you format the computer all the data is gone. Even though you backed up that data you never know what can happen when you try to reinstall certain apps. Not sure what method you can go by, you should run a diagnostics test to see how you computer is doing internally.
Goodluck
