Files moved from VirtualPC for Mac show up as being "written" in the future

hi kids
i have a windows app i use in VPC 7.0 on my ibook with OSX 10.5. i plug in my 1GB usb drive, unmount it from the Mac and mount it in VPC. i backup some .mdb (microsoft database) files from the Windows app to the usb drive, and when i mouse over one of the files, it says *Date Modified: 1/22/09 9:33 PM*. Right now it's only *3:33 PM on 1/22/09*. what's going on? is it going to affect the database info in any way? is there some way to fix this?

Hi Daniel,
might be the obvious, but is the Time inside your VPC Windows also off by these six hours ?
Maybe a simple setting of the 'Windows Time' to the correct time is needed.
Nonetheless I don't think that the different/future time will be affecting your databases in any way.
Regards
Stefan

Unable to open encrypted files moved from PC to Mac

I am running Acrobat Pro XI on a PC (Windows version 8.1) and Have Acrobat Pro XI (Mac version) on a new MacBook Pro Retina 13". I am able to "transfer" files from the PC to the Mac via Dropbox. However, only the unencrypted files will open on the Mac.
As soon as I use a password to encrypt the file on the PC (i.e. Password merely for opening the .pdf file) and then trf via Dropbox to the Mac, it (the Mac) returns the message ... "The password is incorrect. Please make sure that the Caps Lock is not on by mistake and try again."... I have tried repeatedly , checking Caps Lock/Password etc. The password is correct and works fine on the PC. I have even tried re-installing Acrobat on the Mac but this has made no difference.
Assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Ok, that still leaves two questions
- What version of Acrobat or Reader is in use on each system?
- Did you use any special character in the password?
To that I would add
- Do you use a hyphen in the password?

How can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac?

how can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac? i have a client that specificly needs the files to be avi and in 24bit what are the settings that i need to use to export the video using photoshop on a mac?

Hello,
To make a 24-bit AVI file in Photoshop, go to File>Export>Render Video. Then, under File Options, choose AVI from the Quicktime Export drop-down menu. Click the Settings button. Click the Settings button in the AVI Settings window. Change Compression to None, and then choose "Millions of Colors" from the Depth drop-down under Compression.
The Millions of Colors option is for 24-bit video (8-bit R+G+B channels, 8x3=24). Millions of Colors+ is for 32-bit video (24-bit video plus an 8-bit alpha channel).

I am so glad to hear about your success. As you are new to the Mac environment, I will be glad to help you more.
You said: "I can't change the setup yet but i have access". I don't understand what you mean about changing the setup! Please let me know more about that.
I also recommend to use Boot Camp, which allows you to install windows on a partition of your internal hard drive. This has many benefits. First, you can restart your computer and start up in windows. This makes your Mac device a complete windows machine and you gain the most from your hardware when working in Windows. Second, if a problem occures to your Mac OS X, you can restart your machine in Windows and prevent your data from getting lost. Third, you can import the Windows installed on the boot camp partition in to the Mac OS X using VMWare Fusion and work with it as a virtual machine. In this situation, VMWare enables you to work directly with your Windows in the boot camp partition. So it does not create a file package for the virtual machine in OS X.
Regarding the data safety and reliablity, I strongly recommend using Time Machine. You can also set it up to back up your virtual machines or not. This is possible to set up in the Virtual Machine Preferences Page in VMWare Fusion, or in the Time Machine preferences page in the System Preferences app of OS X.
Please don't hesitate to ask any other question. I will be glad to help you.

I am moving from PC to Mac. My PC has two internal drives and I have a 3Tb external. What is best way to move the data from the internal drives to Mac and the best way to make the external drive read write without losing data

I am moving from PC to Mac. My PC has two internal drives and I have a 3Tb external. What is best way to move the data from the internal drives to Mac and the best way to make the external drive read write without losing data

Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+

HT1515 I have moved from windows to mac and had to reset my airport. I am trying it to join the existing wireless network. the process ends in an unexpected error. The ethernet connection seems to work OK

I have moved from windows to mac and had to reset my airport express. After the reset I enter the name of the existing network, name the base unit, enter its password twicw and select additional options as join the existing network. It comes back with a screen asking for the name of the base unit and password. Aftre which it starts cycling between "waiting for airport express", "connecting to 'network name'" and ends with an error message. When I try to set up using ethernet cable evrything works but I need wireless (it worked OK just hours ago). Any advice?
Thank you

Hello, vgafromva.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Sometimes a simple power cycle of the AirPort can resolve this issue. However, here is an article I would recommend going through when experiencing issues connecting to Wi-Fi.

I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files?

I received a psd file created in CS6 for MAC, I am unable to find the layers when I open it in photoshop in Windows. What can i do to edit the files? What can be done so that I can either open and see the layers or how can the sender save it in a way that it doesn't "merge" the layers in some way to just one?

Could try saving as tiff provided layers and transparency are chosen at the time of saving. But it's hard to give a definitive answer as it depends on the final usage. For example PSD's tend to work better in applications like In Design in comparison with tiff.

Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

Will a program mention for MAC OSX be allowed to download on the newest iPad version. If so, how do I get past the "safari" can not download this file?

No, because iPads do not run Mac OS X. They run iOS.

Trouble emailing from Photos for Mac

I'm having trouble mailing photos from Photos for Mac. When I go to the share icon Mail doesn't appear as an option as it did in iPhoto. Am I missing something?

Try this: Open Apple Mail and in the Mail application, select Preferences and then make sure that Mail is shown as your default email reader:
This should enable the Share option in Photos to find your Apple Mail email application. If you're not using Apple's Mail application, but are instead using MS Outlook, then you'll need to employ a work-around for emailing photos from Photos, as described here:

Converting chart from Word for Mac to Pages

In converting a two page chart from Word for Mac to Pages, only page 1 converts. But because of the way I built the chart, I can't cut and paste one page at a time from Word and then convert. Word insists on selecting both pages. Anyone have an idea short of redoing the chart from scratch in Pages?

I'm not sure I follow you. Did you try copying the data from the chart in Word and paste it into the chart editor for a new chart in Pages?

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off. Can someone help?

Ah! You're creating a PDF out of Word through Acrobat. The cutoff is most likely being affected by the printer chosen.
When you call up the print dialogue in Word, check to see what printer is being used. If it's a typical inkjet printer, Acrobat is using the print margins of that printer as the cutoff area. Since most such printers can't print to the last inch and half or so of the paper, that's where it would be cut off.
Near the bottom, under the preview of the document, click on the Page Setup button. It doesn't really matter which printer you select here. Under Paper Size, choose Manage Custom Sizes. Under the Non-Printable Area heading, choose the same printer and set the paper size you're using.
Note that the unprintable margins for that printer will be filled in automatically. That's what's being cut off. Click the + button to create a modified version. The default will be "Untitled". Give it a new name if you want. Then set all of the margins to zero. Click OK. Now you'll have that as a choice under Paper Size. Doesn't matter that the actual printer can't use this setting since you're going to a PDF. Click OK to get back to the main Word print dialogue.
Now choose Save as Adobe PDF. It should give you an exact duplicate of what's on screen in Word since as far as Acrobat is concerned, your "printer" has no unprintable margins.

My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac. An example of one of the file names is: /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Us

My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac.
An example of one of the file names is: /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Users/stevekreitner/Documents /Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/Main Identity [Backed up 2014-06-22 12.48.35]/Data Records/Message Attachments/0T/0B/0M/9K/x26_9605.olk14MsgAttach
Any suggestions on how to locate and remove these virsues?

Actually, you can delete the entire Main Identity folder for Outlook that has a backup date in brackets [xxx] as part of its name since that was created when you used the Microsoft Database Utility to rebuild your email database. The folder that is only named Main Identity is the one in use. The other is now nothing.
That should be true but sometimes users are in the wrong Identity. Outlook 'forgets' what is supposed to be the main default Identity and opens in the wrong one. You need to check the database file in the Identity to see date modified to know for sure.
Typically, after rebuilding you delete the rebuild after a bit when you are satisfied with the rebuild. There should only be one Identity in the Identities folder. However, most users don't understand what to do with the copy that is made and never deletes anything.
