Discrepancy Between Mobile Me Folders and Mail Folders on iMac

Hi there,
When I use Mail 4.2 and check the number of messages in a folder I see a different number from what displays when I log in on the web at www.me.com.
I checked under Library\Mail and my account for some folders and the Messages folder under a specific mailbox does not display any messages either. Therefore, it seems that the Mobile Me web mail is not giving a true representation.
I have also noticed that my Sync settings for Mobile Me keep getting unchecked when I look at those settings. I have to re-enable this on a regular basis. Could this have anything to do with my problem? I think this started after I enabled my Google account to sync with my address book and also iCal.
I have tried syncing and have no problems so I am not sure what else to check. I suspect that there are messages in folders that Mail is not able to access which is puzzling.
Ideas and suggestions as to how to proceed to reclaim the messages in Mail would be much appreciated. One folder in particular has almost 1 GB of data that is not showing up on Mail but when you open that same folder on webmail it is not displaying messages there either but I think they're present because I'm missing a large amount of e-mail.
Thanks in hopeful anticipation as to how to resolve this.
Lynn

As I said I thought I had solved this problem, but apparently I still have this situation. If I set up my .Mac mail account in a Mozilla application I see not only the current folders but also the names of any previous folders that were used on .Mac. I know the profile in Mozilla is not the issue, it's the .Mac account. Therefore, how can all these old folders on .Mac be permanently removed? They must be hiding somewhere on the server but how would this be tracked down? Would it have to be done by Apple? I'm talking about 25 folders that are affected, i.e., no longer used or resident on the account.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

DIscrepancy between Flash Playback Speed and SWF

I'm experiencing a fairly signifigant DIscrepancy between rate of apparant motion in the flash files Im working on, and "speed" of the "finished" SWFs.
Put another way, what appears to be a reasonable speed for a tween in Flash, is a tad too fast when I view the work as a swf preview.
I would rather find a solid method of working with the images Im creating to determine the proper lengths ..and speed of these tweens prior to publishing a preview and then needing to go back and hand alter the length of the tweens I've created.
A "real time" environment would greatly increase the immediacy of creating such " files"
What can you suggest to synchronize these "playback speeds"?
Thank you.

How are you creating these tweens? If you are using coded tweens, what are you using for code?

Sharing a printer between 10.4 PB and OS 9.2 iMac- impossible????

Hello!
I have a set-up here in my dorm room, where i have my 15" PB G4, running tiger, connected to an HP Inkjet 5150. However, i just got my old G3 iMac DV (400 mhz G3, 192ram, 60GB, 9.2.2) up and running, and would like to be able to print without physically switching the printer between the two computers. (you ought to see this tangle of cables on my desk!)
Both machines have the current driver for the printer, and both can print when the printer is directly connected.
Both computers can be connected to the school's LAN via Ethernet OR AIrport.
I have looked through every article in both Tiger's and OS 9's help, and the apple website... i've tried everything, nothing has worked. I assume that's because they are written for an isolated system, while both machines are connected to a LAN.
I also know nothing whatsoever about how our LAN is set up - just how to connect. I do know that both machines are connected to a router somewhere.
I'm willing to do one of three things:
1. Connect the printer to my PB, and share with my iMac. (preferable, since most printing will be from my powerbook.
2. Connect the printer to my iMac, and share it with my PB.
3. If such a thing is possible, i can connect both machines via USB (must get cable first), or FireWire in a sort of target-mode connection. I doubt there's any way to do that, with either FireWire or USB.
The best case will take into account how compatible os 9 is with OS X. Seems OS 9 has trouble talking to X, but maybe not the other way around...
I would like to connect them via Airport, if possible, since a direct connection by airport is much more reliable than the ethernet LAN here (rennovations in the dorm mean intermittent ethernet), and for security reasons, i don't want everyone in the building being able to see my prints. (especially if i can encrypt the connection!)
if any of you have experience doing this, please let me know!
Thanks,
Dan
15" Powerbook G4, iMac G3 DV (9.2.2) Mac OS X (10.4.4) 512 Ram

huh!?
It seems to be solved!
I first connected to a Computer-to-Computer network, via airport, with file sharing on, and then made a new desktop printer. I selected the second printer profile: LaserWriter Color 12/600 PS-J, whatever that means.
What is really odd is that although it started working once i connected the two, the IP of the printer is actually the IP of my PB via Ethernet! (the Airport number has 2 different digits) That means that it's actually going through the LAN.
Why do you think that is?
I've tried printing in two differnet apps: Photoshop Limited 5, and MS Word 98. So far, no problem! I wish there was a way to choose how much ink it puts down, as it uses a ton, but at least it prints!
Thanks! Your suggestion led me to the proper way to set it up, even if it wasn't the exact setting. I'll continue to mess with it over the next few days, to make sure it continues to work, and i don't have any more questions.
-Dan
PS: If i was to connect the printer to my iMac, how would i share the connection with my PB? Now that i know it's going over LAN, i can test it out while i'm in differnet parts of campus, it works that way, that is.

I have a perplexing issue regarding a huge discrepancy between perceived storage usage and what shows up in system profiler?

I am currently thinking about what my next laptop is going to be after my MacBook Pro from about 2009 finally gives out (still going strong!), and I am in between the 128GB and the 256GB MacBook Air models so I wanted to get an idea of how much space I was using right now. When I use the system profiler I get this result:
Yet when I use MacKeeper's Disk Usage Utility I get this result:
The biggest issue being, why is there almost 50GB of difference in Music alone? This computer has been through every OS since the one it came out with (think it was Snow Leopard), I have always used MacKeeper to keep everything in order and it's been running great ever since. But can somebody please explain where these discrepancies come from and how I can fix them?

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Why would a font appear different between Ppt for mac and mail? specifically the lower case "v"... spelled in a sequence

I am using the Hipster Pro font... and when I use it in ppt for MAC, Evana-- the v in Evana has a swoop that extends outside and in mail it doesn't.
I'm not sure why this discrepancy exists as my logo doesn't have it and its causing me problems.
When I try and do a cut/paster for this box it changes it too.

Jeff is right about the two options for inserting a fonts character - but Most Importantly - he is also right in his statement (in agreement with mine) that if the audience machine does not have the font installed they will not see "Hipster Script Pro"
Here's what ya do - make it a "PICTURE" and insert it inline, just like we do here. If this Simple Editor can display it, you should be Golden.

Huge Folder size discrepancy between 10.1 Managed and 10.0.9

I sure do Hope that someone can help me out with this.
I don't want to make any mistakes that would result in Data loss.
I have all my media for a large project I am working on on a Drobo 5D.
The Drobo has a total Max usable space of 16TB.
When FCPX 10.1 came out I upgraded and "saved" my old library. (Just in case)
Once the "upgrade" was complete there were two different directories on my DROBO there was:
"DROBO Old Final Cut Projects and Events" (which has a "normal" folder structure) &
"DROBO Final Cut Projects and Events" (which had the "contained / managed structure)
Shortly after I "upgraded" something happened and all my subtitles (all of the footage was subtitled... all 300 hrs) disappeared...
After about 3 hrs of freaking out I quickly discovered that the subs and all my old project files were still ok in the old (just in case) directory and all I needed to do to keep working was go back to use 10.0.9 which is what I have been doing.
However Now I have very little space on my DROBO and I want to get rid of the "newer" and unused "DROBO Final Cut Projects and Events" folder (which now shows up as a normal folder / directory as I no longer have 10.1 installed)
And here comes the QUESTION:
The numbers don't add up.... the new Folder (the one I want to DELETE for 10.1) claims a size of 8.06TB (on "10.1 FCP P&E")
and the old folder that I want to SAVE claims a Size of 10.79TB (on "old FCP P&E").
In addition to those folders I have an additional 3.5TB of other files outside of those directories...
OK so it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that the "used" space on my Drobo according to my finder is 22.35TB which is already impossibly large as I simply do not have that space on the drive... So when I look into the new directory (the one I want to delete) all the files appear to be "real" and not aliases which was the first thing I thought may be the issue (something funny where it was counting the file twice...)
Anyway I just really want to DELETE that "new 10.1" directory however not at the cost of messing up my perfectly good 10.0.9 workflow.
Please advise.
thanks!

When updating from FCP X 10.0.x to 10.1.x The process uses what is termed "Hard Links" as opposed to Alias or shortcuts.
This means your Mac sees files of the old FCP X and the new version of FCP X as real files and hence what appears to be doubling up of space.
You have two different versions of FCP X pointing to the same hard files.
At some stage of the updating one set of FCP X files will be deleted making the numbers balance regarding space.
See here for updating details:
FCP X Library Updating
Watch all three sections, even twice, if you did not get it the first time to avoid simple pitfalls.
Backup you stuff before proceeding as the new FCP X will be 10.1.4.
The new version does NOT use the Projects and Events structure any longer, it has changed. See link above.

Discrepancy between iTunes Library size and stored folder size

Hi
I'm looking around for ways to clear up my computer's hard drive, and typically it seems that my iLife libraries seem to be the bulk of it. The main problem is that iTunes claims that my iTunes Library size is some 21GB, when the size of the "iTunes Library" folder claims all the music accounts to 26GB. This doesn't include any content in the 'TV Shows' or 'Movies' folders.
The only thing I can think of is that not all of the music in my iTunes Music folder is in my iTunes Library... is there a simple way to check which ones aren't? Or is there another reason why there would be such a difference in the sizes?
Thanks in advance.

It may take some creative thinking rather than expertise to figure this one out.

How to sync notes between iphone 3.1 and mail.app 4.1

Ok, I keep reading in circles and I guess I'll just ask my questions in order...
1. Can I sync mail.app and iphone notes via mobileme?
2. I see a option for notes in preferences/mobileme and it's checked, what should this do?
3. What notes should be getting sync'd? On My Mac? account based notes?
4. I want these sync'd with the iphone notes app, not a notes imap folder in the email account, is this the way it should be working?
I've tried 101 things to check, uncheck, reset, reboot, etc...

Discrepancy between playlist on iPod and iTunes

**reposting this here as I don't think this problem is specific to iPod Classic**
I've selected all the music I want and put it into a playlist in iTunes. This list contains 16127 items and is 145.79GB (so, within the capacity of the iPod classic). I now want this music to copy, via sync, to my device. The problem is that it doesn't seem to believe the playlist is as big as it is. Whenever I go to "Music > Sync Music > Selected playlists > [my playlist]", "16082 songs" appears next to "sync music". If I do a full sync, which takes a while, obviously MOST of the music copies. But 55 items are missing somewhere. Weirdly, if I look at the playlist as it appears on the iPod (under "Devices"), rather than in iTunes, it is shown there as containing only 16082 items as well.
Since the list is so big, it's not practical to scroll through and compare both to find what is missing.
But does anyone have any idea what is causing this problem? How could I fix it?
To be clear, here is what I see in the status bar when I click on the playlist in iTunes:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ly1rn982vl2s5is/Screenshot%202014-05-28%2002.51.30.png
And this is what appears when I tell it to sync with the iPod:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/1lyvspyagkbrhls/Screenshot%202014-05-28%2002.51.58.png

There are a few reasons why this might happen.
You could create a Smart Playlist in iTunes that includes anything not in your iPod Playlists. It would look like this:
and it should have all the missing items.
Note my use of the word "items". You may find that the missing items are:
Podcasts
Unticked items. Notice that my Smart Playlist does not have the "match only ticked items" turned on. So the Playlist will includes items that are not ticked. You may have put unticked items into your "iPod" Playlist, but if you have Sync only ticked songs and videos checked (turned on) then those unticked items would be in the Playlist but not on the iPod itself.
So start with the above.
What is in the Smart Playlist? Are they Podcasts or are they all unticked?
Alternatively, is there anything else common about the missing items?

Discrepency between ipad photo moments and ipad usage stats

Following a extended holiday overseas i downloaded a large number od photos via sd card reader, most of these have now been deleted and photo moments currently shows 320 photos however settings >usage> photos shows 4.5gb. If i connect itunes the usage meter also shows photos 4.5gb and 777 photos. ois 8.1 any assistance suggestion much appreciated ( have tried reset and restore )

You can't use Bluetooth to share the photos unless you use AirDrop and your Mac has to meet certain requirements in order to do that. You can read about that here.

I'm not sure why you just wouldn't sync the photos using iTunes. That's how I move my iPhoto albums and events from my MBP to my iOS devices. The newest iTunes interface is not the same as this one, but the process still works the same way.

Reading Sent mail and mail stored in folders from "On My Mac" on my ipad

On my MBP, I use Mail for both personal mail and business mail. I have two accounts set up in Mail. Mobile Me for personal mail (imap) and a pop3 account for my business mail. The Sent folder has copies of mail sent from both accounts. For my business mail I have a number of folders ("Mailboxes") set up that I move my inbox mail to when I want to save a particular email (I like to keep my inbox clean). These folders are stored under "On My Mac" on my MBP. I understand from reading previous posts that I cannot create folders on the ipad unless I create them on my MBP using my imap mobile me account, which I am not going to do for business. Is there any way for me to be able to have access to (i.e., read them from the Mail program on the ipad) the emails and their attachments that I currently have in my Sent folders and in the "On My Mac" folders?
Alternately, is there a way to copy all those emails and keep them synced with another app that would let me access them from the ipad? So much of my detail info for my ongoing business is on emails and not just word, excel, pwrpoint files (those I can upload and keep in sync with mobile me or Dropbox and access them when I need them) that being able to truly leave my MBP home for several days and only use the ipad is now questionable.
Thanks

Not all services use it. Time Machine Server does, and I'm not sure which others. FTP is not controlled by Server.app.
