Email, how do I protect Emails on my Treo so that they don't get deleted?
I find that every couple of days, my received Email messages get deleted automatically. There are some that I want saved but I can't seem to find any settings to do this. I don't want Emails deleted unless I delete them. Is there a way to do this?
Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)
Yes. This tutorial describes how to go about it: #9a - Archiving an iPhoto 7(08)/8(09)/9(11) Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date. For future books I suggest you start out with a new library and copy the needed photos to it from your current library with iPhoto Library Manager .

How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo foder on my computer (Pc win7).
Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

How do I make sure files backed up by Time Machine don't get deleted?
About 2 months ago I backed up about 50GBs worth of family movie files with TM to a 1TB WD hard drive so that I could access them to watch without them clogging up my iMac hard drive. Once they were safely backed up I removed them from my computer after about 3 days. (I also backed them up to DVDs so luckily they are not gone for good). After 2 months I decided to access them to watch through TM only to find they were no longer there. I also went looking directly into the sparsebundle...no luck. I still have about 450GB left for back ups. My questions are this... is TM deleting files that have only been on my computer short term? If so, how long do I need to keep files on my computer to ensure that TM keeps them for good? I believe TM deletes a lot of weekly and monthly back ups after a month, but this seems to put a lot of 'short term stay' files in danger of being lost completely. Am I right in assuming this?

TM is designed to delete files. Seems conterproductive for a backup application but then again TM is not designed to be an ordinary backup solution that you can rely upon it to keep your files until you as the user decides to delete backups because you find that they are unnecessary. Incidentally, note that the TM preferences tick box says "Warn when old backups are deleted" not "are about to be deleted". There may be warnings before deletion but in my experience one can't count on that.
I can't say why those files are no longer on your backup. Download the Time Machine widget and have a look if there's anything in the TM log for the relevant time the files disappeared. TM shouldn't delete when there's a lot of space left on the drive. However, unfortunately it does happen that TM loses track of what has been backed up and so begins a full backup to ensure all's backed up. In such a case and where the full backup is big, it may have deleted the oldest files to make space for the new backup. Ironic.
If so, how long do I need to keep files on my computer to ensure that TM keeps them for good? I believe TM deletes a lot of weekly and monthly back ups after a month, but this seems to put a lot of 'short term stay' files in danger of being lost completely. Am I right in assuming this?
You can't (afaik) ensure that TM will forever keep files that it has copied because of how TM is designed. If you want a proper/ordinary backup solution look elsewhere. Because of TM's design, I actually stopped using it and instead set up SuperDuper to run a daily backup of the drive where I save all my stuff. Sure, I won't have the extra security that TM offers by backing up every hour (thus minimising the amount of data that may be lost while working on a file) but I don't need that because I am very careful to save regularly.

How to keep videos on iPod so they don't get deleted during sync?
Hi,
I have about 40GB of videos that I bought from iTunes. I bought them on my Mac Mini and used up most of my memory on it. So I deleted some of these videos from my computer and put them on backup DVD's to clear up some space on my computer.
When I sync my iPod when I get new videos, I get a message saying that some of the videos on my iPod are not on my computer and if I would like to transfer them back on. I click no, because they would not all fit.
So then it transfers all the videos present on my computers and replaces the ones I had before, since they are no longer on it. All the time I sync my iPod completely, I have to put those replaced videos (fortunately saved on DVD's) them back on manually.
It's really annoying... Is there a way to tell my iPod not to touch certain videos and leave them on my iPod? So that they don't get replaced all the time?
Or does anyone have any suggestions?
Please help me!!! ThanksFirst suggestion is to go out and get an external hard drive to give you a place to store ALL your stuff in one place. Hard drives are cheap. Last night I was at Costco and they had a Triple Interface (eSATA, USB2, and Firewire 400) Seagate 750GB drive (w/5-yr warranty) for $200. Online I see 500GB drives for $130 and under. And you can get as high as 360GB for under $100 these days. So get one!
Anyway, one thing you can do is to switch your iPod from auto update to MANUAL update. Now iTunes will not remove anything. However it also won't do anything else either. You have to drag and drop stuff from the library into your iPod to add them and select them on the iPod and hit Delete to remove them. Also playcounts, ratings, etc. do not sync back to iTunes in manual mode.
My suggestion is short term switch to manual sync, then order or pick up locally an external drive. Then get all your stuff back onto your library when you have the bigger disk. Once put together again, change the iPod back to auto sync.

i just purchased 2 ipod touch for my kidz (9 & 10 yr. old) . and registered them both with my email. I didn't know every text message I receive, they too would get on their IPod Touch. HOw do I change this? And do I need to contact a Representative to add their own emails....?
Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan. -
Stated above, I have issues with Facebook and my iPad 2. I have updated the operating system, but the problem started before that. Can't click on like or enter comments. Problem started about a week ago. Sent email to Facebook and they responded that they don't answer individual emails but read them. Lots help that was.
Facebook is basically broken, at least as far as it pertains to mobile browsers. THey changed something in their coding and now mobile browsers don't work with facebook. ANd their app, well their app has been less than stellar for a long time.
Unfortunately, it's up to facebook to fix things, not apple. All you can do is find work arounds. Look for third party apps, I have one called Facely HD which seems to work reasonably well (even though it does seem to not see all posts). There may be others that work better. You can also simply not access facebook on your mobile until they fix it.
It's all on them and users can only be patient or find other ways to work around it. -
HT1918 How do you solve an issue with the card? I don't get the option of 'none' :(
How do you solve an issue with the card? I don't get the option of 'none'
I had this exact same problem with the new iPhone I bought on 1/4/13. The walk through they provide on how to do this is useless because it fails to explain that if you are already having the problem of not getting the "None" payment option with an Apple ID then you will need to create a completely new Apple ID.
I had to do this 7 times since I bought my iPhone on Friday until this morning to figure out how to finally be able to use the Home Sharing option in iTunes to put my music collection on my brand new $500.00 iPhone. Pretty pathetic if you ask me but since it made me so angry I want to make sure other know how to do this so you don't get as upset as I did.
#1 If your current or soon to be "old" Apple ID is not providing the option for "None" as a payment option then you need to make a brand new one. But you have to make it specifically how I tell you.
#2 You will need to use an email address that has not already been used for anything related to a previous Apple ID. You might need to make a brand new email address.
#3 Open iTunes, then open iTunes Store (upper right corner of iTunes).
#4 Click on App Store (upper center of screen).
#5 Scroll down the screen page until you see Top Free Apps on the right side.
#6 Choose any one of the FREE apps.
#7 You should either get the option to create a new Apple ID box, either that, or it will pop up with some kind of disclaimer and then it does the create new Apple ID.
Either way just create a new Apple ID when it gives you the option to and then when you get to the page that looks like the payment page the "None" payment option will finally be available.
Note: You will still have to fill out the information on the payment page. As long as you choose the "None" option it will not request any credit card information.
#8 You will be sent a confirmation email to the new email account. Just follow through with what ever it tells you and viola now you can use your Apple Device.

how do I format a table in Pages so that I don't have to keep reformatting every time I go to a new cell?
Hello Fruhulda
Clicking a Pages table don't give the same result than clicking somewhere in the table then pressing cmd + a.
The first scheme selects the table (height square handles displayed)
The second one select every cells (no handle displayed).
If we try to fill cells with a color in case 1, only standard cells are filled.
If we try to do the same in case 2, every cells (headers included) will receive the color.

My children just got iPods touch. I registered them on my account so they can have acces to my I tunes Acc. Now they have all my list of contacts receive my messages have my music my pics, also when they install an app like pandora they have all my stations, things that they don't want. How can I fix this.
As for iMessage, you do Settings -> Messages (scroll down) -> where it says iMessage, turn the switch to off.
As for pictures, you do Settings -> iCloud -> Photo Stream -> My Photo Stream -> turn switch off.
As for apps, you do Settings -> iTunes & App Stores (scroll down alot) -> Music, Apps, Books are all swtiched off.
If you want to the delete the music, you go onto the music app and slide your finger from right to left on the song. -

I clicked on an app that I thought was free and it isn't (I thought I was downloading Hello Hello Spanish and instead it was Hello Hello World). How do I stop if from downloading so that I don't get charged? I've highlighted it and clicked "remove" but it keeps downloading. I do not want my school charged for this app which I didn't want! Help!
I talked to an actual person at the Apple store and he said I could get credited for the price of the unwanted App. How do I do that?
