For John:  my iMac accepted the flash drive when I plugged it in.  However, when I try to save a pages document, there is no reference to saving to that drive.

Response to John:  am new to using flash drive.  It is the correct version and my computer recognizes it.  However, when I try to save a pages document to that drive, there is no reference to it for saving.  Only my hard drive seems to be available.

Hi. I suspect your flash drive is formatted with an NTFS file system (this is the default for Windows drives) and as such is read-only on a Mac. Try re-formatting on the either the Windows or Mac computer with a FAT32 file system. Be aware though that you will lose all data on your flash drive so back up first. Also maximum file size is limited to 2GB, is this a problem?

  • HT1175 I am trying to setup my Time capsule via a ethernet cable as a back up for a new iMac. The on button on the time capsule set up window keeps failing to stay on. Any ideas what to do?

    A PC can have more issues connecting than a Mac.
    But it really should not matter.. so just try it in situ.. press and hold the reset.. once it starts up, it will return to default IP, 10.0.1.1 the PC should then be able to find it via the airport utility.
    If not drag it over to the Mac and plug in there by ethernet.. or since it is a laptop, really should not be that difficult to drag the Laptop and plug it into the TC.
    Important thing is to get access to the TC.
    The Mac if it is running lion, then you MUST download and install 5.6 airport utility to do anything useful.

    Should i have an install in the flash play settings under Plug in Version?

    I'm not sure I understand the question.
    Do you have an "install" and want to knwo if it shoud be there, or are you looking for one?
    I've never seen "Install" as an option in the plugins manager for any browser, because the plugins listed are already installed, or they wouldn't be in the list,

    When I open a PDF file and I try to Save As to my shared drive I can’t select it from the dropdown menu. (See screenshot).

    Hi staceye,
    Where are you creating the PDF file, and what is the error that you're receiving? Is it a file that is saved in your Acrobat.com online account?

    Go to Adobe's site and download the current Flash plug-in: Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.155

  • How to save a pages document on the ipad2

    How do I save a pages document on the ipad2 or how do I print a pages document.  I have a n epson835 on a wireless network.   I can scan or print a web page  from the ipad, but I cannot print from pages. The instruction seems to require saving the pages document, but all I can do is share the document via several methods.
    Thank you
    John McDonald

    Tap on the Spanner icon, tap on Share and Print, Tap on Print.
    You will also need to have an Air-Print enabled printer and both the printer and ipad must be connected to the same network.  If your printer isn`t Air-Print enabled then there is a work-a-round but you will have to use google to obtain the files and instructions, do a search on google for Air-Print for PC or Air-Print for Mac.
    To save a document in Pages for iPad just tap on Documents to take you back to your list of documents and the one you are currently working on will automatically save, you can then tap on the documents name to change it.

  • When I try to open a pages document on my mac book pro it says "The file 'thesis.pages' couldn't be opened." But i can open the same file on my iPad and iPhone without a problem.

    When I try to open a pages document on my mac book pro it says "The file 'thesis.pages' couldn't be opened." But i can open the same file on my iPad and iPhone without a problem.

    Thanks very much for the instructions.  I encountered this problem this morning myself and the recommendation fixed the problem immediately.  When things like this happen with iCloud and Pages it makes me wonder if I might be better off using something else, having just recently had to fix the problem that the current Pages can't read documents I created with a much earlier version until they were "upgraded" by an interim version.

  • When I save a pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf. What's happening?

    When I save a Pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf and recipients can't open it. Some load correctly, but about half don't load as a pdf. What's happening?

    Hi mjmonck-
    Which email provider are you using? There are different solutions possible for different providers. Yahoo is having trouble with attachments, outside of any Firefox issue. I've seen a Google user fix this by manually adding the mail URL to their ad block program- which mistakenly perceived the webmail page as an advertisement.
    Hope this helps.

  • When I open my files to download my pictures from my iphone 6 plus, there is a windows icon with a hard drive.  What is that? And why can't I delete it?

    When I open my files to download my pictures from my iphone 6 plus, there is a windows icon with a hard drive.  What is that? And why can't I delete it?  I already reset my phone and a week later they came back. 

    I download my pictures by:
    !) Connecting my iphone to he computer.
    2) It will open a window or I will go to my computer and select iphone device.
    3) Open up Iphone folders and download.
    When I do that, I see a windows icon, with what looks to be a hard drive.  And when I click on it, it leads me back to my desktop.  Right now, I only have one.  I know by tomorrow I will have more.  It just keeps spreading. 

  • When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low. However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear. I transferred my SIM Card into a new device Same problem

    When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low. However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear. I transferred my SIM Card into a new device only to be subjected to the exact same problem. I have reset the phone clearing all the data and updated to the most recent software version available from itunes; and still no improvements. The results of my switching to a new phone would indicate a software issue.
    Does anyone out there have this problem and how can it be fixed?
    Thanks,
    Teresa

    Try removing the screen protector that is covering the microphone.
    Scratch that; wrong answer. I thought you meant you had trouble hearing.

  • Does the Intel iMac accept the smaller DVD/CD's that often come as software

    I cannot find anywhere any info if the Intel iMac's slot loading drive will accept the smaller type of CD/DVD's. I received one of these as a software install CD to transfer data from an LG cell phone vis USB cable.
    Thanks

    Those discs would probably only contain Windows software anyways. The manufacturer would not put Mac OS X software on a disc that most current Mac could not read.
    Instead, download the latest version of the software from the manufacturer's web site. I always do that myself, even if the included disc is regular size, because software on those discs is often an older version.

    For this field level authorization, you may only use SDK or SP to reach your goal.  SP would be difficult to use in this case.

  • The case for integrated, native physics in the Flash Runtime

    Hello everyone,
    As hopefully many of you know, a community based feature request page was created a few months back (Feature request for Flash and Air - uplist) and we've had a number of great ideas added and voted on.  In an attempt to better understand the individual requests, we thought we'd start threads on particular subjects to allow us to ask questions and get community feedback.  These posts should not be taken as a commitment to a particular feature (or lack of commitment to any other feature.)  I can't stress this enough.   I don't want anyone to think that we're ignoring other requests or to assume that because we're asking about something, they can expect to see this done in a future release.  We simply want to better understand the request so that we can reduce the number of assumptions on our part.
    To start, let's we've got a few questions regarding the request for "Integrated (native) physics" which currently has 142 votes.
    When talking about physics, are you interested in a 2D or 3D physics engine?
    Can you list native engines that demonstrate the features you want the Flash runtime to implement natively?
    For instance, if you're interested in Box2D functionality, have you tried http://www.box2dflash.org?
    Is there a huge performance gap between the native and ActionScript implementations of Box2D?
    Are you looking for solutions for desktop or mobile?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    I'm all for the addition of a native physics system, based on Box2D, that gives us native speed.
    But, I'd also like to suggest that you make sure that you are committed to polishing and improving the new API's, and not leave them stranded at v 1.0.
    For example, GameInput API is rife with bugs, and there seems to be no interest or pro-activeness on the part of Adobe to fix them. Zeh Fernando has put in a ton of work in standardizing the GameInput API, and he has been quite vocal about the issues, and as far as I know, no one from Adobe seems to care at all.
    Here's a link to his gitHub repo, where he lists current issues with the API:
    zeh/key-action-binder · GitHub
    know that Flash's GameInput API is still severely ridden with bugs. You may run into some of them. Here's some more information.
    Supported devices are not detected properly when added or removed (Bug #3709110): no workaround
    Using GameInput add Timer overhead every second in Windows (Bug #3660823): no workaround
    GameInput devices simply stop working when running on Android/OUYA: need to initialize things in the first frame of SWF (fixed in AIR 13.0.0.36/Flash Player 13.0.0.130?)
    Quick button presses may not be properly detected on Macs (Bug #3702039): no workaround (need to test sampling rate changes and if button activation can always be assumed from the up event)
    In addition to those, I have run into a major bug on nVidia Shield, creating huge lag in inputs. The bug is nearly 12mths old, and is very severe:
    Bug#3673122 - Shield controller massive lag
    I'd love to see the AIR team being much more pro-active about bug fixing. It seems to be like pulling teeth sometimes to actually get something fixed. I would think that the team, after putting in a big effort to implement GameInput in the first place, would be extremely pro-active in seeking out feedback and fixing the bugs in the first 3-6mths since release, to harden the API, but instead no one seems to care, and the onus is all on us to "file a bug report and vote", which seems code for "might get fixed, one day, maybe"
    We love AIR so much because of it's consistency, but new API's need to be as consistent as old ones, and need constant iteration and improvement as well. I know it's flashier to add a new bullet point to the marketing check list, but consistency and reliability are much more important in this chaotic and fragmented landscape.

  • I am running a MacBook Pro with 10.7.5 and I downloaded the OS X 10.10.2 Update Combo, however when I try and open the package the error message "This volume is used for TimeMachine-backups". Which is not true. I´m using TimeCapsule.

    I am running a MacBook Pro with 10.7.5 and I downloaded the OS X 10.10.2 Update Combo.
    When I try and open the package after accepting the lincence-agreement and upon choosing the install-volume the error message appears: "This volume is used for TimeMachine-backups".
    Which is not true. I´m using a timecapsule for backups.
    How can I proceed?

    I am using a MacBook Pro (2010) with 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB, 1067 MHz, DDR3, Startvolume Macintosh HD.
    After downloading the package and starting upgrading it asks acceptance of the license-agreement. After that it asks for the volume were to install. And when I click on the Startvolume Macintosh HD (which is the only available on the machine) it says: "The volume is already being used for Time Machine-Backups".
    It doesn´t offer to skip that point or to reconfigure the Time Machine settings.
    The point is that my Time machine is not and has never used the Mac HD for Backups. In the past I have used an external drive and since 05/2014 I am using a Time Capsule which is appropriately addressed in the Time Machine settings.
