Help, I accidentally put a desktop icon the trash (my photo booth!). I don't  know how to undo it!

Help me. I accidentally created a desktop icon from Iphoto and when I wanted to get it off the desktop, I put it in the trash. Now, it appears that my entire photo collection is in the trash bin and I don't want it to be there! How do I tell it to take it back out of the trash bin???

Please explain in more detail, how you created, made or moved that "icon" to your desktop...?
If you not sure, open the trash, control click on the "icon" in the trash, select Get Info and report back.
If it looks like this > with nothing after it, then you need to drag it out of the trash and put it back into your user Pictures Folder.
If it is a copy or alies and you can currently open iPhoto and see all your photos, then there should not be any problem just emptying the trash and making it go away.

    Don't you mean Photos or are you still using iPhoto with 10.10.3?
    Normally one gets the preview version of a photo or the edited version if it's been edited when dragging from a thumbnail to the Desktop.  Don't know how you would have gotten small thumbnail versions.

    YOu can only do that if you had find my iphone setup and activated prior to having your phone stolen.
    Then you log into icloud.com to remote wipe, but your phone has to be connect to wifi or cellular data to do that.

    Type "about:config" in the location bar.
    Filter for "privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage"
    Change this to true by double clicking the preference (or right click and choose Reset)

  • HT1338 I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

    I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

    The "disk" is your startup volume, which is usually called "Macintosh HD" (unless you changed it).  Your iTunes media files (such as song files), and basically everything else, are stored on that volume (unless you changed it).
    You should create some free space as soon as possible, because the system (OS) and applications use free space to write temporary files as part of normal operations.  If there is very little free space available, your system may start to bog down and feel slow because it's not running efficiently.
    You can empty whatever is currently in the Trash by doing a click-hold (or right-click) on the "waste basket" icon in the Dock, and selecting Empty Trash.  A good place to look for files you may no longer need is your Downloads folder.  There is usually a link to your Downloads folder in the sidebar of a Finder window.  (The folder itself is located in your user home folder.)
    You can see how much free space you currently have by selecting Macintosh HD on your Desktop (or in the sidebar of a Finder window), and selecting Get Info from the File menu.  You can also right-click on it and select Get Info from the menu that comes up (or hit Cmd-I on keyboard).  The Info window shows Capacity and Available for the volume.  Available is the free space.  It would be best to keep Available at least 10% of Capacity; getting it to 20% or more would be better.
    If you can't free up enough free space by deleting things you do not need anymore, you should get an external hard drive and save some your files there.  That's actually how I run my iMac; most of my user files are stored on external USB and FireWire drives.

  • I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

    I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

    The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=10.6+snow+leopard&_sacat=0&_odkw=mac+os+10.6 &_osacat=0
    Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store.  The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
    Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • The tilt is on and I don't know how to get it off

    THe tilt lock got turned on on my iPhone 4 and I don't know how to get it off.  Can someone help me?

    By "tilt lock", I think you mean the portrait - landscape lock.
    Turn that off by clicking the home button twice, then swipe the lower four icons from left-to-right.  At the left side of the resulting four icons, you should see a circle with a padlock.  Click the padlock to unlock it.  Then click the home button to return to a normal display.

  • Help, i made a terminal command and i don't know how to undo it.

    i found my long lost folder of terminal commands.. and i forgot what this one did, so i clicked it (i made the commands into a "unix executable file").. and all my files on my desktop are now hidden.. the only way to find them is to type in the file name into finder.
    the command i typed in was
    while (true) do
    chflags hidden ~/Desktop/*
    done
    and now everything on my desktop is gone, and i dont know how to undo it, I undid once about 3 months ago when i wrote it, but i forgot what i did. I tried counterering the command with others but it isn't doing anything. thank you
    edit: i know this command cant destroy my system because it wasn't a sudo, but still, i had all my class work on my laptop and now it's all invisible

    Hi, try this...
    while (true) do
    chflags nohidden ~/Desktop/*
