Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.

Can't save any changes made in EDIt mode?

HI all
I am new to apple products ... but I am now playing with iPhoto 11. I am able to import my photos from my camera with no problems. And then, in EDIT mode, under "adjust" I am able to make a lot of nice changes - De-noise, sharpness, etc.. - but I don't have a button to allow me to save? I have looked at the user guides on line and they talk of a DONE button - but I don't have one? And when I go back to the photo library and look at the photos there, the changes I have made are not shown. But if I click on each photo individualy and click on EDIT again - the changes I made are saved? But I can only see my changes whilst in the EDIT mode per photo?
How do I save my edits back to the photo library? I want to uploaded the photos with the changes I made - but everytime I try an upload -- even a single photo - I get the original photo before my edits
Any help would be appreciated please
Thanks
Chris

Your database is a bit mucked up (<- Technical term, that)
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

DW8 can not save any changes on ftp server

When I work online, on ftp server, I made changes in My web

This is a problem you must work with your host to correct.
You cannot do it

I can't save any changes to my Apple id

Anyone know a solution?

Hi,
You are trying to "Manage your Account" from this Portal ?
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Certain Apple IDs that come from Apple such as @mac.com names from the Older .Mac service (or as an iChat name since then) or the MobileMe issued @me.com names cannot have certain details changed on those pages.
The same is true of Newer iCloud @me.com issued names or those Apple IDs that have been linked to a new iCloud ID.

I cannot save any changes made in the Preferences box. I go to Edit, then Preferences. When the window opens, I can check or uncheck boxes in the General window BUT, there are no Cancel or OK buttons at the bottom of the window. HELP!!

There are no "Cancel" or "OK" buttons at the botton of my "Preferences" box that allow me save any changes that I might mak in the "General" window. The box opens without problem and changes can be made in the "General" window however, these changes cannot be saved. If I close the window with the "X" in the upper right hand corner and then reopen it, any changes made are lost. I'm running Windows XP and would appreciate any help that I can get.

I would like to change the "When you insert a CD:" option
Oh good, that one's pretty straightforward. When you make that change in the pane, the OK is the active button. For example, I just quickly changed mine to "Import CD and Eject", and you can see that the OK button is blue in my screenshot:
... so to make that setting stick, all you need to do is to hit your "Enter" key, and that should press the OK.
Unfortunately, I don't have any music in the iTunes library on the PC I'm working from at the moment. So I can't check my "Automatically download album artwork" checkbox.
Ed, could you check for us which item is active after changing that setting? (If it's the OK button, then hitting enter should press the invisible button, just like "When you insert a CD".)
Changing "Import Settings" is trickier, because after you get out of the "Import Settings" subdialog, the "Import Settings" button is active. So you then have to hit the tab key precisely five times (to get OK active again) and then hit Enter to get Import Settings changes to stick.

Help please I can't save any documents now! Thanks in advance all, it is truly appreciated. how can find the hidden temporary files using the terminal what do i type in?

It's more likely a failed Erase Free Space, which creates a huge temporary file; that's why it looks like you have no more available drive space. You can recover from this. See these links

The device may be formatted for Windows, as NTFS. The format is readable, but not natively writable on a Mac. To write to the device, you must either reformat it (erasing all the contents) or install third-party software to enable write access to NTFS.

A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially.
I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

You cannot remove or change the old ID. This is Find My iPhone Activation Lock. You need to recover the credentials for the Apple ID originally used to activate the iPad.

View Object Editor in JHS 10.1.2 does not save any changes....

Hi,
When I did exactly as the JHeadstart Tutorial says, I noticed that
in JHeadstart 10.1.2 with JDeveloper 10.1.2
JHeadstart does not save any changes I make in the View Object Editor
of the Application Structure File Editor !!!
For instance when I change the Width property of an Attribute from 60 to 5
it changes to 5, but when close the View Object Editor
and reopen it again, the Width is back to 60...
Even when I click the button "Validate the Application Structure File" before
closing the VO Editor....
What do I do ??? Is the only solution to edit the XML file
or something like that without using the VO Editor ?
Or is there a better solution ?
Does it maybe work in an older version of JHeadstart ?
If so, where is the older version available for download ?
Thanks,
Eric Joosse

Eric,
How did you leave the JHeadstart VO editor?
The changes should be saved when you click the OK button in the VO editor itself, but they are not saved if you click Cancel, or the little cross in the upper right corner, or leave it open while going back to the Application Structure File editor. That's because it's a standalone editor (you can also find it when right-mouse-clicking the VO in the Model project). The icon in the Application Structure File editor is just a quick way to get to it.
Hope this helps,

How do I get rid of the Microsoft Setup Assistant loop? I migrated my software/documents from another laptop so don't have the disk to reinstall. Please help! Can't open any Microsoft Office software, like Word, and stuck in a loop?

I migrated my software/documents from another laptop so don't have the disk to reinstall. Please help! Can't open any Microsoft Office software, like Word (for 2008), and stuck in a loop?
Whenever I select Word Microsoft Setup Assistant appears, asks for feedback, then after selecting okay (both on saying yes or no to feedback) goes on to a registration page. When I click on this it says I've already registered so I just click okay, and then move on to a update page. After this, if I click on Word, the process repeats itself.
As I said, I don't have the disk to reinstall, and can't find the Office Settings to delete as many pages have suggested I should try. Safe Boot restarting also hasn't worked... Really stuck and need Word very soon for work.
If you can help, that would be great, and feel free to ask any questions about the situation as I'm not an expert here.
Cheers,
Jack

First, export your contact from iCloud.com and save them on your computer in a safe spot some where (like you desktop). Use this to help you do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606
Next, on both of your devices, go to Settings > iCloud and turn on contacts and select Merge. Then turn off contacts and select 'Delete form my [device]' when prompted.
Now go back to iCloud.com and select a contact (yes they will all be messed up again) and select Command+A on a Mac or Control+A on a PC to select all of the contacts. Tap the delete key on your keyboard (or right click /control click a contact and select delete).
You iPhone, iPad and iCloud.com should not be empty for contacts.
Go back to Settings > iCloud on both devices and turn on contacts again (you should not see merge this time).
Next, go back to iCloud.com and import your contacts (those exported .vcards). You can either drag and drop them into the empty contacts list in your web browser, or you can use the gear icon to import.
You cleaned up contacts should import correctly into iCloud.com and sync to both of your devices.
Good luck.

Can't save any custom workspaces AE CS6? (recently upgraded to OSX 10.9 rMBP)

Hello -
since transferring my CS6 across to my new laptop running 10.9 -
I can't save any custom workspaces... it's driving me crazy having to move everything around every time i restart AE.
- I arrange the workspace and save it as a custom name - this appears in the menu.
*However* - upon restart of AE - this custom name is no longer there, and the workspace is once again, an old workspace I had, with windows everywhere.
- I can reset STANDARD workspace - but even then - when I change to another workspace, then change back to STANDARD again, it reverts to the older, messsy version of standard workspace i had...
so there's some issue with saving for me....
- I checked 'get info' to see that my workspace related preferences in the library folder had read/write access and even changed that to everyone has access...
After doing this, I got this error below, when resetting STANDARD workspace, saving project, then switching to another workspace - and then switchng back to STANDARD...
it still brought up the messy workspace version, not my newer reset version, and gave this message:
"After Effectswarning: Error parsing properties list from file ".......Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/11.0/ModifiedWorkspaces/UserWorkspace11.xml"
(I"ve also repaired permissions with Disk Utility ( there were a lot needing repair, but none were explicitly adobe, and didn't solve problem on laptop reboot )
I've been trying to find a solution online, without success so far...
Any advice greatly appreciated...
(And I wonder what this problem might have wider ramifications for my version of AE? )
thanks!

I'm having this same problem and yet, I did not migrate my software from one computer to another.
I downloaded AE CC 2014 off of Adobe's installer.
I can't get my workspace to be remembered at all. I can make different workspaces, naming each one. But when AE restarts they are all gone.
Any one else with this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Help! i can't save any changes in my preferences
