Desktop PC and iphone3g

My iphone works fine downloading photos to my laptop but gives me an error message on my desktop PC that says interface is not registered. The Iphone photos show up when connected in the picture viewer, when i try to copy them to a folder it gives me the error message. Can anyone please help. Thanks

Hi hvnut,
Can the PC import photos from other cameras?
What application are you using to import the photos?
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1857 will show you how to change the program that launches when the iPhone is connected.

  • My safari menu bar is missing --the menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc.  I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away.  Any ideas how to retrieve it?

    My safari menu bar is missing.  The menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc.  I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away when borrowing my computer.  Any ideas how to retrieve it?  Thanks. 

    I too was having the same problem However, I could access both the menu bar and the dock by hovering my mouse over them so it wasn't a huge problem but I prefered having it there anyway. I was not in full screen mode and I could still go into full screen mode if I wanted to.  I found the easiest solution was to just quit safai and restart it, but it might not work for you considering you couldn't access you menu bar either way.
    I found this article that allows you to hide/show the menu bar and the dock through TextEdit (didn't work for me) http://www.mactricksandtips.com/2009/07/hide-the-menubar-or-dock-in-specific-app s.html It is pretty old so it might not work for lion and a bit risky if you don't know what you're doing so I wouldn't really recommend doing it this way.
    And KSheppard, I know it's not really any of my buisness, but the way to get answers to a question isn't by insulting others and being quick-tempered. Even if you feel like you were insulted first, don't try snapping at people who aren't obligated to help you. Honestly, it just makes everything easier if everybody is cooperative and polite.

  • Desktop Image and Screensaver: doesn't work

    I can not change my desktop image, and my screensaver won't start.
    I was playing around in Desktop Preferences tonight, setting different speeds for the iTunes Artwork screensaver to see how it'd look, and suddenly, System Preferences just crashed on me. I wasn't doing ANYTHING strange, just playing with the options of the original screensavers that came with my computer, which is brand new. I don't have any third party screensavers loaded on my machine. The desktop image was one I made myself, with Photoshop. I have absolutely no idea why it's acting this way.
    Even stranger, out of curiosity, I created a second user account and tried the screen saver while logged in the second account. The screensaver worked just fine. But still nothing in my main account. Any ideas?
    When I try Desktop Images and Screensaver now (within System Preferences), it CRASHES on me. I get this error message:
    "The application System Preferences quit unexpectantly.
    Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.
    Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple."
    If I reopen it again, I get the same thing. The second error dialog will always have the option to "try again." If I try again, I can actually open the Desktop Images and Screensavers window. I can't change anything, however. If I try changing something, I get the following message:
    "System Preferences -- New Settings
    New settings have been created for this application. Do you wish to use these settings from now on?"
    With two buttons for yes or no. However, no matter which button I select, I get the same results.
    I've run OSX through Jaguar and Panther, so it's not like I'm a new user who just clicked the wrong thing. I'm seriously stumped here. Can anyone help? I'm a little worried about this.... Thanks.

    THANK YOU!!!! Yes, it was the preferences in my library causing the problems. I just deleted the screensaver preferences, and that fixed all the problems, including the desktop image problem.
    I also think that maybe an alarm clock program I downloaded called Aurora may have been partly to blame. I had Aurora authorized to wake my computer from sleep, even though I had password protection enabled. This might have conflicted with the screensaver somehow, dunno.... Let me know if any of you are successfully using Aurora without any problems, and I will reinstall it. But for now, that program is off my system.
    Anyways, thanks a load. You guys are all very helpful. -- Dean

  • I have forgotten my Password to be able to connect between my desktop Mac and Mac Book on my home network. How can I recover the password or change it?

    I have forgotten my Password to be able to connect between my desktop Mac and Mac Book on my home network. How can I recover the password or change it?

    The password used to log in to a user account remotely is the same as you would use to log into it locally. You can also use your Apple ID, so try that.
    To change your login password read OS X Mavericks: Reset a login password
    also OS X Mavericks: If you forget your login password

  • How to use lightroom with desktop PC and mobile with MacBook Pro ?hav

    At home I have a desktop PC with all my lr files stored on NAS drive I want to be able to access and edit on macbook when away from home.
    1 Is it possible or do I need a Mac pc or change laptop to windows based ?
    2 do I use remote access to NAS or use previews and sync catalogue ?
    3 can lr exist with both file formats at same time ?

    I use a similar setup, with a Windows desktop PC and a MacBook Pro. My photos are on an external drive connected to the Windows machine, and I sync the catalog and smart previews using Dropbox.
    See see my post A Portable Lightroom Catalog on TipSquirrel.
    Also, see my post on Using Lightroom with Two Computers.

  • I'm about to purchase Lion.  My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone.  We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases.  Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID?

    I'm about to purchase Lion.  My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone.  We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases.  Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID or do we have to use different Apple IDs for the purchase?  If we use the different Apple IDs can we still use the same ID for all of our purchases.

    And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
    If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install.  Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion.

  • My daughter and I have separate iCloud accounts set up on out desktop PCs and our iPhones and iPads. We want to share the usage of a Win 8 laptop and will log in using using separate user accounts. Is it possible to set up our own iCloud accounts?

    My daughter and I have separate iCloud accounts set up on out desktop PCs and our iPhones and iPads. We want to share the usage of a Win 8 laptop and will log in using using separate user accounts. Is it possible to set up our own iCloud accounts in each of those separate user accounts?

    No it is not possible.  Content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, and Apple does not provide a way to change it.

  • Desktop SMS and Windows Mail don't work properly together

    Hi
    thought I would post there here as been having some issues with my Windows Mail but my desktop computer doesn't suffer same issues and on a Vista forum where I posted my problem a couple of very helpful told me who to try solving the issues.
    One of them suddenly realised I'd said my laptop was a Toshiba and apparently the Desktop SMS and Windows Mail just don't work properly together so the person suggested unless I use it to uninstall it apparently amongst the technically trained its known that these two programs don't like each other and would explain why my desktop doesn't have the issue but laptop does.
    After resetting the Windows Mail (tutorial on a vista site http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/) Touch wood don't be put off by vistax64 as site does both 32 and 64 and followed Brink's excellent resetting Windows Mail (didn't restore any mail) and then uninstalled Desktop SMS and touch wood no more mail issues as has been giving me problems virtually daily with marking draft emails as read/sent.
    So had to click on forward then delete those bits and finish email to send it and touch wood since doing these two things as soon as send an email to draft or outbox get the number of emails in the brackets whereas before this wouldn't happen unless I closed the program then reopened it.
    Hoping these solutions have fixed my problem and wanted to share it with anybody else who wants to read this thread and would recommend the Vista 64 site as they're all really helpful over there and speak in non technical terms for those of us not technically trained.
    Debbie

    I have marked this as answered as it was more a post to help others who may have experienced the same problem I did and didn't get a reply or just didn't know that this program could be the reason their Windows Mail has issues that can't seem to be resolved any other way apart from ignore them and hope they don't get worse.

  • I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by connecting to to desktop computer and delete them.  Tech support said you can't delete apps anymore.  Not Good!

    I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete iPod Touch/iPhone apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by going onto iTunes on your desktop computer and deleting them.   Not Good!  I just called tech support and they said that in this version there is no way to delete them. They also said there have been numerous complaints about this.  You can't even delete them from your applications folder.  It's as though you're being held hostage to apps you tried, but do not want.
    While we're on the subject, I don't like the fact the the iPod touch comes with unistalable apps such as: Passbook, Nike & iPod, Newsstand, and Game Center. Don't want them, will never use them.  Give customers the option to delete apps that we don't want.  Call Apple's corporate customer care. escalation, and complain untill they fix this.

    Actually,
    Step 1:
    Step 2.
    Step 3.
    Step 4.
    Step 5.
    One of us must be wrong.

  • How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

    How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

    Have you seen this?
    Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
    A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
    If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

  • My desktop files and folders no longer appear on the screen. I think this is a result of an iPhoto updating.  It appears (from getting info) that now Desktop is being treated like a normal file for which an application to open it must be supplied.  Help?

    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.

  • I have just clicked on my iTunes desktop icon and got the following message "The file iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Why has this occurred when it working fine?

    I have just clicked on my iTunes desktop icon and got the following message "The file iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Why has this occurred when it working fine? Is it best to update iTunes to 10.2 to attempt to resolve? Initially I got the prompt Quicktime was out of date so I updated that successfully in all programs. I do not want to lose my iTunes library.

    Sorted problem updated and reinsatlled and restarted computer.

  • I threw out 24 time machine backups from an external hard drive into my desktop trash and now I can't empty my trash.

    I threw out 24 time machine backups from an external hard drive into my IMac desktop trash and now I can't empty my trash.

    Since you didn't mention what type of error message you were seeing, I'm going to guess on what is happening.
    I'm guessing that since you threw away Time Machine backups, that Time Machine is probably active on your Mac. There is a chance then that the files you tossed are marked as in use. You can't delete files that are in use.
    Try turning Time Machine off, then restart your Mac. Then try deleting them again.
    Once done, turn Time Machine back on.
