Gallery question, i dont want a folder to show there?

ok if i hit the gallery icon it shows old pics from my other phone on my SD card, folder for new pics taken on this phone, folder for screen shots and then folder for pics i save from text messages. due to kids prying eyes i would like to remove the message folder from the gallery icon. can it be done? i have tried creating a new folder in my files and moving the pictures there but now that new folder/file is showing up in the gallery list.
also when i go into look at all the files on the phone there is a star next to all files and folders, clicking on or off it changes from blank to blue, what does that mean

In case anyone comes across this post in need of the same information. Forger The whole getting a file manager and then adding a file called .nomedia to the folder you want to hide. Long story short its a pain, really doesnt work good and i think i messed up some files.
Anyways i ended up finding an APP called keepsafe. VERY EASY!!! either go to your gallery and just like sending a pic to facebook or text just choose to send to Keepsafe. or open keep say and add photos from your files. EASY!!! to open the app and see your pics you just need a 4 digit pin code you set up upon installing that app

  • Hey everyone! i have a external hardrive i keep my itunes library of songs on and it wont sync with my ipod touch inless i copy and paste it into my ipod device when thats conected. i dont want all the songs on there only checked ones. help plz!!

    im having trouble with syncing my ipod touch with my itunes library that i keep on a external hardrive. when i plug up my external hardrive that has all my songs on it, it doesn't sync to my ipod correctly. i have to copy and paste the songs to my ipod device when its connected. i dont want all the songs on there and i want to be able to manually control whats on my ipod. and id like to take some songs off of the ipod also but i want them still in my itunes library though. i usually check the songs i want on the ipod but it isnt working that way maybe because its a external hardrive?? i never had a problem with past ipods with my library on itunes but i ran out of space on my computer and had to transfer all of the songs to my external hardrive. please someone help me!! i thought it would be simple! but it isnt the case! i plug up my hardrive then my ipod, i press sync and nothing gets transfered unless i copy and paste them to the ipod. even though it says ipod syncing in progress! this is really confusing! please help me!! sorry if this is jumbled up and confusing..

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • I dont want my skype photo showing in my outlook sent emails

    i dont want my skype photo showing in my sent emails. Since I upgraded to the latest Skpe 7.7.85.103 my profile picture displays on all sent emails. I do not want this and cant even delete my skype photo.

    If you mean in the Album part that skims when you move the cursor over like on this demo page: iPhoto Album,  you can't.  It's a fixed size and is only intended for a brief idea of what you'll find inside the album.

  • I dont want my folder to automatically close on iPad mini. Is there any way to stop it?  It seems Apple likes you to click click click your way to the most simplest tasks

    I have folders on my iPad mini that group specific things such as weather and news in one folder, game apps in another folder etc. When I go into my news and weather, for an example, and chose a news I find when I close that news, it also closes the folder. I want to go to the next news application but I can't because the folder closes and I have to open the folder again and then I get to pick the next app. I feel like all I do is click click click on this iPad. I find it to be very ridiculously inefficient and shortsighted when it comes to getting from one place to another.

    I'm not sure what you are doing but on my iPad running iOS 7.1 I do not see that behavior. If I open a folder, start an app, and then close that app by clicking the Home button I am returned to the app screen with the app folder still open and ready to select another app.

  • Dont want my tv to show my computer display?

    Here's my question... I have been connecting my macbook (intel) with an apple connector (the one that plugs into the video out with a yellow rca cable) from my macbook to my TV. I would like to show different clips on the tv without my audience seeing my computer screen on the display? Is there a way to have my computer showing my home screen and then the tv only showing what i want it to? Kind of like 2 screens on 1....

    I agree. You should be able to avoid video mirroring, and change to dual-display or extended desktop mode. The user guide I've downloaded onto my MacBook mentions the following in the section on 'Using External Video Support' -
    "When an external monitor or TV is connected, you can either have the same image appear on both the built-in display and the external monitor (known as video mirroring) or use the external monitor to extend the size of the Mac OS desktop (known as dual-display or extended desktop mode). By default, your MacBook starts up in dual-display mode. Press the F7 key to switch between dual-display and video-mirroring modes.
    If you want sound to come from an external display, such as a projector or TV, you need to connect an audio cable (not included) from the computer’s headphone (f) port to that device.
    Note: Because of the display limitations of most TVs, images displayed on a TV screen
    are of lower quality than those on the built-in display or an external monitor."
    I hope this helps.

  • Why Adobe dont want support for ArmV6 if there are many devices with these?

    Many people use Android devices with ARMv6 like: Galaxy ace, Motorola Defy, Galaxy y, LG Optimus One, etc, ect. I think that therea are more with ARMv6 that ARMv7 check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1596800
    This link you can see the top 10 of the most common devices Android and the 3th is galaxy ace one devices with ARMv6.
    http://readwrite.com/2013/02/07/8-of-the-10-top-android-devices-in-use%20-belong-to-samsun g
    My Adobe friends. This is true. The big problem that have Adobe Air as framework for develop mobile Aplications is that, if you realy want that Adobe Air be truly one standard for the community, you need cover all devices, no some, otherwise Adobe Air will continue every day more in oblivion.
    If we as developer choosing Adobe AIR as platform to build mobile apps even as simple as "Hello World" or bank aplications, school aplications, enterprices aplications, there are a huge percentage of Android user cant run it. Which means our apps is going to losing millions or billions of potential customer because of chosing Adobe AIR.
    Another thing. Unity, Sencha, Titanium, etc, etc, etc have support to ARMv6 why Adobe don't want support these devices? - This causes only one result: the people will have to resign from adobe AIR mobile technology.
    I hope that Adobe understand and bring AIR support on all those lower performance device (ARMv6) especially those new ARMv6 device.

    To play devil's advocate:
    * The 3rd most popular phone you mention (Galaxy Ace) was released in Feb 2011. I'd say it's falling out of that chart fast.
    * Motorola Defy was released October 2010. Galaxy Y, October 2011. LG Optimus one, October 2010. If the flagship phones for the architecture are 2+ years old, it doesn't speak much for its market penetration.
    * Unity doesn't support ARMv6. As far back as 2011 they announced they'd focus on v7, and whatever support v6 might have is very limited. (Source)
    While I'm sure there's a place in the current market for armv6, it's something that's already legacy and it's going away fast. Not sure it makes sense to spend resources on that. "You need cover all devices" stops making sense when the effort necessary exceeds the returns. I don't see any "new" ARMv6 devices coming out either.
    ARMv6 is dying or dead, depending on how you look at it. It'd make much more sense to support a platform that has new high-end devices coming out (x86).
    If you as a developer absolutely need to support those old, low-end devices, using a simple framework like PhoneGap is a better solution.

  • HT4097 when i turned on my ipad it has the itunes logo on it.  It says it is in recovery mode and that i have to restore it. I dont want to lose my photos I  have stored on it. I tried the suggestions from above but nothing works. What can I do

    When I turned on my ipad the itunes logo is on it. I cant get to my home screen. I plugged it to my computer and went to the itunes and it states that the ipad is in recovery mode and that I have to do a restore. I have some important photos on it that I dont want to lose. Is there a way I can restore it without losing the photos. I tried the suggestions on this site but it dont work. My last resort is to restore it if I have to.  Also, when Im on the itunes site it does say that i can update on March 15th Can anyone help? Thanks

    Then you can select that backup to restore from if you want. If it is an old backup - then you will be restoring the iPad to the condition that it was on that date. You mentioned March 15 in your first post. If your only backup is from last year, then you will lose all of the photos that you have taken since then.
    When you post back, include details ...not just a one sentence statement. Its difficult to ascertain exactly what you are experiencing without specific details.

  • HELP I'm getting a blinking folder with a question mark at start up? Have been trying to fix this for 3 hours and I dont want to lose all my files by resetting it completely!!

    I currently have Mavericks but my original OS X disk that I have I'm pretty sure is Mac OS X 10.6.6. I'm not great with computers but am usually able to fix problems I have had with mine in the past. I have reinstalled and reset my computer to factory settings before, but I am locked out of my computer completely & can't get to my files to save them & I really dont want to lose them. I was in Safari earlier opening a file, the page started to not respond & froze up my whole desktop so I did a hard shutdown & restarted my computer. I haven't been able to get back into my account ever since. If my only choice is to lose my files & reinstall everything, I need detailed instructions because I actually attempted to do this at first, out of desperation to fix my computer & the installer was asking me to select what disk I wanted to reinstall lion to yet I dont have a disk for that nor do I know what it exactly is asking of me? Please help

    Question (?) Mark, Blinking Folder, or Gray Screen at Startup
    These are related but not identical issues. Their causes are outlined in Intel-based Mac- Startup sequence and error codes, symbols. Solutions may be found in:
    A flashing question mark or globe appears when you start your Mac
    Mac OS X- Gray screen appears during startup
    In most cases the problems may be caused by one or more of these:
    a. Problem with the computer's PRAM - See Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM.
    b. Boot drive's directory has been corrupted - Repair with Disk Utility.
    c. Critical system files are damaged or deleted - Reinstall OS X.
    d. The disk drive is physically non-functional - Replace the hard drive.
    Note that the information I have provided is what Apple recommends, If other users suggest different solutions than found here, then be sure what they recommend does not impact on your warranty, if any, or ability to get continuing Apple service.
    Please don't start removing drives or changing cables unless you know what you are doing and have exhausted other non-invasive alternatives outlined here. If you perform any work yourself that is unapproved by Apple, then you will void any warranty you may have and lose all further Apple Support.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    The main difference if you are using Lion or Mountain Lion is that you must first boot from the Recovery HD. Simply boot from the Recovery HD to perform the above.

    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing The Drive

Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed.

    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    I DONT WANT TO START A DISCUSSION!!! ANSWER MY QUESTION!!! I HAVE SUBMITTED IT SEVERAL TIMES. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS PROGRAM. I CANNOT GET RID OF ALL THE FORMATTING IN MY NEW WORD DOC THAT WAS CONVERTED FROM A PDF FILE.  I HAVE SPENT HOURS AND HOURS TRYING TO TROUBLESHOOT MY DOC TO GET RID OF ALL THE FORMATTING. A SIMPLE CLEAR FORMATTING DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET RID OF PARAGRAPH INDENTS, TABS, LINE NUMBERING, ETC. PLEASE HELP ME BY PROVIDING AN ANSWER! OR I AM DONE WITH THIS!

    Hi Wanda,
    I'm sorry that you're frustrated.  The ExportPDF service is designed to preserve formatting, so that much is expected.  Try exporting your content to a Rich Text Format (.rtf) document.  That will strip out a good deal of the formatting of the document.  If you still need to remove formatting, try copying the content to either a Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac) document (if using TextEdit, choose Format > Make Rich Text).  Save that file.  Close and reopen that document.  Then copy and paste that content to a new Word document.
    Let us know how it goes!

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • HT4759 what do we do if we have iweb? I have got a new host but I heard Lion wont have the software.. I dont want to lose it as its fabulous.

    how do we keep using our website made on iweb since Lion doesnt offer the software? I dont want to lose all the hard work I've put into the site.

    You will have to move your website to another server, but you can continue using iWeb. See this information from Old Toad:
    Info About iWeb Curtesy of Old Toad 
    As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.   On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
      Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
      Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.   All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.   There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.   
       However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.

    I have messages but i dont want it and I want ichat back  how do i do this?

    I"m guessing you're used to having iChat in the Dock. It should still be in the Applications folder. either drag it to the dock or create an alias and drag that to the dock (I think that means some form of right or left clicking on the app, and make alias should come up). If not, then I dunno
    just a guess on this one...I didn't quite understand the question (maybe it's just me, though)
