Got to ask...

Still using '09 but I need to ask if there is yet a way of keeping photos and videos synced between laptops, so I can have one unified library whichever MBP I'm using?
Like I do between my main MBP and my iPad and iPhone...

I did a quick search for Transitions for you...

Results that include the word "handles" will be of particular interest to you.

Need Disk 2 for10.4.2 got stuck asking for disk 2

I purchased a used Imac G5 with 10.5 on it. I need 10.4 for a billing program I use. The Imac G5 install disk 1 came with the G5. I started the install and got 3/4 done, then it asks for disk 2. Bad news? No disk 2. The previous owner said he never used the disk and there is only the one I have.
Whenever I boot the computer, it turns on and asks for Disc 2. Is there any way to get in and take off the 10.4 update I did? That way I can go back to running 10.5 [I have no disk for 10.5 it was just loaded on the machine]. I can boot the computer using my external drive that has 10.4.11 on it. Any help is much appreciated.
I had to purchase this G5 because my Imac G4 15 flat panel was dealt a double power surge on Monday and died. Luckily Mac folks able to make a complete copy of the contents on the hard drive.
Thank you in advance, it has been quite a week.

You can call Apple Customer Relations 800-767-2775 and they will send you the install discs for a small fee.
Do call them and have the serial # handy. But someone a couple of weeks ago, reported that Apple said they didn't have any more. (It was for iMac PPC (2005 I think). So if you get some Post back.
One thing you can try with the one disk, is before the install starts, click on the custom button, and uncheck as much as possible. When it ask for #2, I think its looking for applications to install and maybe X11. Good luck

1st Gen to 2.0 issue

I have had an iPhone for just under 1 year and it has worked great. I went from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4 when it was released with no issues. About 1-2 months ago it started locking up on me with out warning. It will work for 2-3 days and then just lock after a phone call ends or I will take it out to use it and I have the spinning circle or its just off and cannot be turned on. I have powered it off and then try to turn it on in the morning and nothing but the Apple logo with a spinning circle. I have to hold the power and home button till it shuts off. Then its a game of chance if it will actually boot back or sit at the Apple logo. After a few tries it will come up to where its useable, but for how long is sparatic. Typically I have to restore it.
So I was reading up and found that 2.0 pretty much wipes everything and lays down all new (I cannot confirm that but it seems to be true from all the things I have been reading elsewhere) Being a 12 year Cisco/Microsoft Engineer, I figured lets see if it is software and not hardware since I do not want to disect this thing and void a warranty. So I did the upgrade. Worked great. And it had worked great for about 2 weeks. I installed a few free apps, in the beginning and was pleased. Now in the past day or so (No new apps installed just before hand), I am back to where I was. The lock ups, the need to hard cycle it, etc. Again, it will work for a few days and then suddenly act up. Then after a bunch of cycles, perhaps a restore, its fine for average use. I have even downgraded my iTunes and gone back to 1.1.4 only to still have the problem and then come back to 2.0 again.
My time is limited to take it to a store for a tech to look at, which I intend to do at some point here cause its pointless to need to worry when I am on call if my phone is even available. I need something reliable. Also where I live, the closest "Apple store" to see an Apple Genius is about 1.5 hours away.
and seems hardware. I hate asking for help but sometimes you got to ask the experts, so I am here. Any advice or is there anything else that I may be able to do or is it a case for a service visit?
Thank you for your time
Regards.

If it's just under a year since you bought the phone, I'd take the time to have it looked at. at first it sounds like a software issue but having it return after update, seems to indicate something a little deeper. If it's under warrantee, take it to be checked out.

Downloads Folder

Hey everyone!
I'm sorry if I asked the wrong question in a wrong place. I really do not know where to got to ask this question. Here we go. I know how to change my icons on my Mac from Finder to the trash can, but I do not know how to change my Download Folder, and what not. I mean I know how to change it, but when I change the icon to a basket. The stuff I download are not in the basket. They are usually infront of the basket where you can't see the basket, or behind the basket where you can't see what I downloaded. How can I set it up where I can see the basket, and the stuff in my basket. I know this is a hard question to understand. Maybe some of you do know what I'm talking about, but I do need some help please. I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
-Tyson

Are you talking about changing the icon that shows up in the Dock where the Downloads stack is? I assume you're using the method where you put an empty file/folder with the icon you want in the Downloads folder (not actually changing the icon of the downloads folder itself).
The Downloads folder is sorted by the date the file was added (so you can see the order in which you downloaded files). You can right-click it and sort by name to keep a certain icon in front (so the basket would show up above the others).
If you update to 10.5.2 or later, another method that might work better (but you wouldn't be able to actually see the stuff in the basket) would be to set the icon of the Downloads folder itself as the basket (Get Info on the basket, click the icon, copy, get info on the downloads folder, click the icon, paste), and then right click and Display As Folder. This will set the downloads Stack to show the basket (and only the basket, with nothing behind or "in" it) as its icon. When you click it, it would still pop out all of the files in the Downloads folder.

Layering several gif animations

I'm not sure if this is even possible but hey, you got to ask.
Basically I want to edit gif animations but not go through every single layer and make a tiny adjustment to each one.
As an example, I have an animation where I want to give someone a big head. Is it possible to have two versions of the same animation (one large and one small) and simple copy/paste and animated sequence from one to the other? So all the frames from the big head animation will be moved into the smaller version without all that fiddly frame by frame in a 50 frame gif.
My apologies if this is making no sense! I can't seem to explain it right...
And if CS5 can't do it (heaven forbid) does anyone know what can?

Okay, this looks helpful. I've read what I think I'm supposed to read and I've managed to copy one animation over into the other. That still leaves me to go through it frame by frame and erase the edges etc. This has to be done manually doesn't it? I can't use the eraser on multiple layers.

Print files into/onto PDF template for proofing

Hi,
I am hoping someone may be able to help.
I am wanting to set up several PDF templates that will range from A4 -SRA3. these PDF templates will be Proof Approval Templates. I then want to be able to send artwork to print from say InDesign but I want it to print into the PDF template. Hope that makes sense.
I would then end up with say a compliment slip artwork centred onto the Proof template enabling me to send out the proof.
How do I go about this or is it not something that can easily be done?
Many thanks in advance.
Jon

Hi,
Thanks, I have been doing that but wanted to have something that could be done automatically by acrobat at the sending to print stage, my old company used to do it, but I never got to ask how...
Do you know of a way?

How do I stop someone from hacking my iPhone?

Hello all
This question concerns hacking of an iPhone and possible installation of a keystroke logger on my MacBook Air.
A month or so ago my iPhone 5c was hacked. Text messages were sent without any action on my part, apps on my iPhone were deleted and new ones were downloaded, mainly games. When I tried to stop them downloading, I got messages asking if I wanted to delete apps I had previously downloaded. The hackers had got my AppleID somehow, and had changed the language on the AppleID site to Korean!
It took me some time, but with the help of Apple Care I managed to restore the iPhone, or so I thought.
I was more recently the victim of a "spamming attack" on my MacBook Air where e-mails were sent from my computer by a spammer. I changed the password on my e-mail account. Since then on 3 occasions I have observed weird mouse behaviour when using Internet: twice it was impossible to move on a web page, I became stuck at the bottom of a page and had to reboot; another time a video I was watching went into a kind of slow motion, starting and stopping again several times a second. So it seems like I have some sort of malware on my Mac. Perhaps I should mention I am running Parallels software on my MacBook Air.
Now I have the problem with my iPhone again; whenever I have the "Localisation service" option on, text messages are entered on my phone, although none have been sent yet.
When I went on the AppleID website yesterday, my birthdate had been changed, so apparently they have got my AppleID password again. I changed the password yesterday.
Could they get the password through iCloud? or a keystroke logger on my computer? I read here that a keystroke logger can be installed by a fake JavaScript (or Java) installation window, and I remember clicking on such a window a few months ago. That would explain the spamming attack too. If that is the case do I have to "wipe" the whole HD, or just reinstall the OS?
Thanks in advance for any help.

It sounds as if your Apple ID was hacked. Your iPhone would have to have been jailbroken in order to have been hacked. Most likely, the hackers would have also have had to have had physical access to your phone. To protect the phone itself, don't jailbreak it and put a password on it. It sounds as if you did the right thing getting the Apple ID sorted. Make sure you use a strong password from now on.
Regargind your computer, again, it sounds as if your email was hacked. Sending spam that appears to have come from your email address wouldn't even have needed that. You could have malware in your Windows partition, I supposed. It is unlikely, though not absolutely impossible that you have malware running under the Mac OS.
You probably want to look into two-factor authentication with your Apple ID. I'm not an expert on malware on computers (as I have a Mac and it's not really a major issue) but, I think that wiping the Parallels partition and reinstalling would get rid of any possible Windows issues.
Best of luck.

I have the same problem.
Two similar discussions:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23081658#23081658
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23281391#23281391
I have not yet seen any official response to the question: "Is the Apple AV Composite cable fully supported with 30pin connector devices upgraded with iOS7 - specifically ? - eg. iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s"
If it is not currently supported is that then due to a bug / oversight and in that case is it something that will be fixed in the near future?
Please let us know what feedback you got from asking Apple support.

Itunes 11.1.2.3.1 and Windows 8.1

I got to ask this question to see if others are having the same problem , When you plug your Iphone or Ipad into your PC ( In my case an Iphone 4S & Ipad 2 with an Asus Laptop PC running MS Windows 8.1 and Itunes version 11.1.2.3.1 installed) when you click on the device in Itunes then click on the Movies tab have you noticed how slow (lag) it is to scroll up or down with the slider bar on the right side ? Why is it that with all the versions of Itunes someone at apple has not thought of a way to view your movies in a List or detail view and NOT a THUMBNAIL View only , I think the thumbnail view is what slows down my PC to be able to scroll up or down so I can check or un check movies I want to sync,has anyone elase noticed this too ?
Thank You

I'm assuming the certain playlist is selected to sync within iTunes?
Have you treid unsyncing the music from the iPhone (de-selecting "Sync Music"), sync, and re-select "Sync Music" and re-sync the music back on?

[solved] transferring OSX

Hello everybody ...
after getting archlinuxppc running on my ibook G3 clamshell I'm trying to get a dualboot system with the old OSX from a seperate harddisk. As changing the harddisk is not done within a few minutes I had to make a backup from an intel-based notebook.
Basic configuration:
ibook g3 300 MHz with 40 GB harddisk. Currently only archlinuxppc is installed. The partition map looks like this:
# type name length base ( size ) system
/dev/hda1 Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 ( 31.5k) Partition Map
/dev/hda2 Apple_Bootstrap bootstrap 1600 @ 64 (800.0k) NewWorld Bootblock
/dev/hda3 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 root 12582912 @ 1664 ( 6.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda4 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 opt 12582912 @ 12584576 ( 6.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda5 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 usr 10485760 @ 25167488 ( 5.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda6 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 var 10485760 @ 35653248 ( 5.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda7 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 home 23068672 @ 46139008 ( 11.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda8 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 swap 8388608 @ 69207680 ( 4.0G) Linux native
/dev/hda9 Apple_Free Extra 543872 @ 77596288 (265.6M) Free Space
I know, swap is too much ... it's just a temporary size.
I was not able to view the partition table from the old 3GB Mac harddisk. (I was too fast to change the 3 GB hd against the current 40 GB hd. So I plugged the old harddisk into an intel based notebook and started with knoppix. Knoppix was not able to view the partition table with the help of cfdisk, but (I don't know where knoppix got its information) it creates the nodes /mnt/hda1 to /mnt/hda8 so it seems as if knoppix knew that there are partitions like that. I made images from these partitions with the help of dd and got the following sizes:
hda1 32256 Bytes
hda2 27648 Bytes
hda3 37888 Bytes
hda4 27648 Bytes
hda5 37888 Bytes
hda6 262144 Bytes
hda7 262144 Bytes
hda8 3252775936 Bytes
I found this partition table within penguinppc.org
# type name length base ( size ) system
/dev/sdb1 Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 ( 31.5k) Partition map
/dev/sdb2 Apple_Driver43 Macintosh 54 @ 64 ( 27.0k) Driver 4.3
/dev/sdb3 Apple_Driver43 Macintosh 74 @ 118 ( 37.0k) Driver 4.3
/dev/sdb4 Apple_Driver_IOKit Macintosh 512 @ 192 (256.0k) Unknown
/dev/sdb5 Apple_Patches Patch Partition 512 @ 704 (256.0k) Unknown
/dev/sdb6 Apple_HFS untitled 194557 @ 1216 ( 95.0M) HFS
/dev/sdb7 Apple_HFS untitled 2 333025 @ 195773 (162.6M) HFS
/dev/sdb8 Apple_Free Extra 10 @ 528798 ( 5.0k) Free space
So I think my "little" partition inamges from hda2 to hda8 are the same like these. How am I able to copy the original OSX installation into my system.
My first thoughts:
adding an Apple_HFS partition with the size of the image from hda8 and copy back the image with dd. Now there are 2 questions.
first one
do I need the other partitions too? if so how do I know how to name them and in what order do I have to take them?
second one
does it matter if the osx image is on hda8 or not?
additional question
I recognized that during the partitioning process I got never asked for "primary" oder "advanced" partition. How many partitions am I able to create?
additional question 2
what are these mac-partitions for?
regards

okay ... after asking within IRC someone told me just the big partition is neccessary for running MacOSX. So I deleted the swap partition, created a Apple_HFS Partition end the rest as swap partition again. I recovered MacOSX with the help of dd and added the line "macosx=/dev/hda8" into yaboot.conf.
After rebooting MacOSX started without any questions and works fine. For getting into the dual boot menu I forgot to run the command
mkofboot -v -C /etc/yaboot.conf
within archlinux. So I restarted with the help of the boot cd, changed into my root partition and executed the command. Now I have successfully installed a dual-boot menu for choosing between linux and macosx!
Great work.

Trying to restore Macbook Pro back up from Time Machine.

Trying to restore MacBook Pro from backup thru Time Machine. Got message asking "Do you want to replace your current copy of "Desktop" with the one your're restoring? "Desktop is required by OS X. When I select REPLACE, get window stating "Operation can't be completed because the item "Desktop" is in use. HELP

I think you are not restoring your files in the correct way.
If what you want to do is to restore a complete Time Machine backup, you have to do it in OS X Recovery, so first hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up. Then, choose the option to restore a Time Machine backup, and follow its steps.
If you want to restore individual files, you cannot restore that type of user files because you are using them. Instead, you can restore individual files in your user folders. Read > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427

Why simple functions are not included in iPhone?

My iPhone is a wonderful piece of equipment I can't leave home without (in addition of my Amex card :-)) But for the life of me, I can't understand why Apple could not include functions which are pretty much standard with all other inferior mobile phones. Simple functions such as bluetooth transfer between phone or just saving important sms from iPhone to computer. Nokia has a great Nokia PCSuite; Motorola has very useful MobileTools which allows full sync between mobile phone and computer. I got to ask the question ... WHY? WHY? WHY? Is there any apps developer out there that can develop an apps similar to Nokia PCSuite or MobileTools. I will be the first one to pay for it.

Pretty quick after you create the initial group but see my answer to number 2.
