HELP - Look at my desktop!

One of our clients on our system had a major crash while searching through Finder.
Any ideas? Different logins have same results.
Names within finder are fine, spotlight search results are ok, but HD name, any finder options, apple options are all screwed up.

That's not terribly surprising if a hard crash occurred. Boot the Mac OS X Install disk, run Disk Utility, and run "repair disk". Or, if you/they have other disk utilities run them instead.
Do you/they have a good backup that's fairly recent? You MAY be looking at an OS reinstall, or even a disk reformat. I would be careful NOT to corrupt whatever backup you have! You may want to make a NEW backup of the disk, if the last good backup is old enough that you'd lose recent changes.

  • ICloud calendar looks different on desktop today

    My iCloud calendar changed it's look on my desktop (in Chrome, Firefox and IE) today to a "flatter" design.  But it looks the same as always on my iPad.  Have others noticed a difference? 

    The change was made late last night.  This was to make it consistent with iOS 7, which is being released today.  This format has been in beta for some time, and was just made the default.

    Sounds like you bought the iPad secondhand and the previous owner did not remove it from his/her iCloud account.
    If you are unable to contact the original owner, the iPad is (unfortunately) useless to you.

    Hi, I just created an apple Id account and someone has already used it to buy ibooks! Help, looks like my account has been hacked!

    Received an email:
    our Apple ID, xxxxxx, was just used to download iBooks from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
    If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
    If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go toiforgot.apple.com to change your password, then see Apple ID: Security and your Apple ID for further assistance.

  • For some reason I cannot delete files off my desktop without putting my password in and even when I do I still can't delete and I also can't put files on my desktop at all ! but when I look at my desktop it gives me a silver lock? Please help me?

    when I go to find my desktop in Finder it shows a folder and a silver lock ? PLEASE HELP ME !

    If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
    If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
    They might be fixable but I do not know how.

  • Help - Looking for Openbox or OB/Xfce solutions [SOLVED]

    I'm considering dropping GNOME (again) and switching to lightweight WM (Openbox) and/or DE combo (Xfce/OpenBox).  I really like how easy Openbox is to use and I've read several OB-related threads here, trying to determine how other folks optimize it, but I'm still left with questions that I can't seem to find answers to.  I'm looking at using this setup on my Dell 6400 notebook which is currently a GNOME-centric desktop, with the exception of K3b, K9copy and a QT-frontend for VirtualBox.
    The top 5 features I'm hoping to keep are as follows:
    1. GUI-based SSH
    Currently I use Nautilus to quickly browse remote servers, but is there a standalone GUI commonly used, or should I just get use to the shell?
    2. Hibernate/Suspend support
    In addition to basic powersaved functionality, GNOME offers options at shutdown or via gnome-panel.  Does OB and/or OB/Xfce has something similar?  When I tried Xfce in the past, I could never get the power management options to appear on the shutdown screen.
    3. GUI-based volume management
    I know Thunar can do this, but what do standalone Openbox fans use to quickly mount/unmount volumes?
    4. Font hinting/antialiasing
    Xfce can do this, but what about a standalone Openbox config?
    5. Multimedia hotkeys
    This should still work with Xmodmap, etc. but is there anything else I should know about?
    If anyone can help shed some light on these topics, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Since Openbox is only a window manager, it does nothing in the way of hibernation or suspension. However, as long as you have ACPI working, you can still suspend/hibernate very easily. On my laptop (macbook) I simply put an option in my menu to suspend the machine by running my suspend script (which is basically "echo mem > /sys/power/state" with some commands to load/unload necessary modules and daemons)
    3. GUI-based volume management
    I know Thunar can do this, but what do standalone Openbox fans use to quickly mount/unmount volumes?
    Thunar is my file manager of choice. It is lightweight, yet fully featured. I've used Thunar with Openbox for quite some time.
    4. Font hinting/antialiasing
    Xfce can do this, but what about a standalone Openbox config?
    As mentioned above, Openbox is completely separate from your fontconfig.
    5. Multimedia hotkeys
    This should still work with Xmodmap, etc. but is there anything else I should know about?
    What [vEX] said. I use this method with xmodmap to get my apple remote working with MPD
    When you use Openbox, and only Openbox, you start to realize that Desktop Environments add no additional functionality, only convenience. On the other hand, they can also muck things up by being proprietary and at times overly complicated. KISS.

  • How I want to use iCloud + my PC, help/look for answers here

    Howdy all, I will be updating this if i manage to fix my problems
    So I love my iPad, and I will soon get an iphone. But regardless of those purchases, I still have a PC and I will continue using it.
    But I love my iPad as my main personal organizer, (contacts, calendar, etc). So I want to be able to use my iPad to update stuff and have my contacts, calendar, and purchases apply to my PC as well as my future iPhone. Since apple devices sync my easily, I decided to make this discussion to help others as well as my self set up apple to windows related things.
    And please, back up your device before anything, just incase.
    I am using:
    Windows 7 home edition 64bit
    iTunes 10
    iPad IOS 5
    Outlook 2010
    I don't think I have to list anything else, but if I do, just ask!
    So what I am trying to do -
    PLEASE TELL ME IF I AM WRONG, Thats the point me doing this
    Apps - This part is DONE
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1620?viewlocale=en_US
    So, you have to turn the MUSIC, APPs, BOOKS on through iTunes(PC) as well as your devices. So now, buying apps, as long as you devices/PC has your account logged in, it should apply my purchase to all of them at once.
    Book Marks- This part is DONE
    I like to use chrome. But to sync them together, I exported all of my Chrome bookmarks,  and shoved it into Safari, it seemed easier than using IE.
    I then synced my ipad's book marks into Safari. Now Safari, on my PC, contains ALL of my iPad and Chrome book marks. I then exported the bookmarks from safari and imported it into Chrome. A bit longer and annoying, but it worked.
    So from now on, all Chrome bookmarks on my PC will have to be added to Safari. And my iPad bookmarks, will require me to carry it from Safari to Chrome.
    Photos - This part is DONE
    So, in my own opinion, Photo stream is stupid.  All this is, is Dropbox for pictures.
    On a PC, after setting it up, it will give you a Photo Stream Folder. ANY pictures you put into Photo Stream Folder will be on photo stream and sync to all of your devices that have it turned on. But, in order to KEEP this picture, you must save each one or else it will auto delete in 30 days.
    But, any photo that you take SHOULD automatically download into your PC. Which will also require you to save the photos into a different folder.
    My boss at work figured this part out. IN ORDER TO ERASE photos off of photo stream, you will have to reset photo stream, which will kill the cloud distrubution of the pictures to each device, and erase those pictures on the cloud. Then you have to delete it off each device.
    We believe that apple will change this. I mean, its kind of pointless if you can erase the pictures.
    This part is where I had to use Outlook 2010.
    Please note, This is a brand new outlook, I do not care about anything previously inside and there is nothing for me to erase or lose
    eMails - This part is DONE
    So the point of this part is to sync your iPad mails with your Outlook 2010. I don't use this, because I still prefer to go to each of my 3 individual email accounts to send mail. If I were out and about, I would be accessing each email through the website or my iPad, so I do not see the point in setting up the email sync.
    But in order to use eMail, contact, calendar sync with Outlook, I had to make a default account. I HAVE NO CLUE what that means, but the error was this
    "Setup can not continue becuase outlook isnt configured to have a defualt profile. Check your outlook settings and try again."
    So find the settings a set a default account. IF you wanted to set the account to your @me.com account, then you will have to connect that email to outlook. But, it WONT WORK! I used these settings
    p99-imap.mail.me.com  > incoming
    p99-smtp.mail.me.com  > outgoing
    check remember password and SPA
    then go to "more settings" > "Advanced" tab and enter
    For IMAP  Port :"993" or just choose SSL from the encrytion dropdown
    For SMTP Port : "587" and choose Auto from the encrytion dropdown. (do not choose SSL)
    then goto outgoing server tab
    check first box ...SMTP
    Provided by https://discussions.apple.com/message/16351758#16351758
    Calendar - This part is PARTIALLY DONE
    My original Calendar was on Gmail, I synced my calendar from my gmail to my iPad. But with the new iCloud, I want it to all be on the cloud. I think I can sync the iCloud's calendar into outlook, but I cannot push my calendar from Outlook into iCloud.
    So ON my iPad, I did a list view, and clicked on each event (thank god I only had 6 months worth of stuff, and changed it from my gmail calendar to save onto my ipad. So then since the events are now saved onto my iPad, I pushed that into the iCloud.
    Now all that is left to do is to PUSH my iCloud Calendar into my Outlook. So then when I update stuff, it will show up on my PC.
    But with the iCloud Control Panel, I cannot sync my Calendar. I keep getting this error
    "Setup can not continue becuase outlook isnt configured to have a defualt profile. Check your outlook settings and try again."
    I have no clue what to do
    Contacts - This part is PARTIALLY DONE
    I am still working with this, but that error like the one above is still there as well.
    But with the iCloud Control Panel, I cannot sync my Calendar. I keep getting this error
    "Setup can not continue becuase outlook isnt configured to have a defualt profile. Check your outlook settings and try again."

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

  • Help! All my desktop files disappeared.

    I need help as quickly as possible.
    This morning I turned on my MacBook Pro and all my files on desktop have disappeared.
    I have tried relaunching Finder, going to Desktop folder through Finder and even searched it.
    And found nothing.
    My files have completely disappeared from both desktop and my hard disc (or at least I am unable to find it).
    Please help!

    I have the same issue!   I had Remote Login checked on and worried that when i went to a hotel, someone swiped our files.
    otherwise - no idea....all files on desktop are gone!!! all others are fine

  • Need help using Apple Remote Desktop for remote family members

    I am new to ARD and need help. I know there are solutions to do what I am trying to do through LogMeIn and Teamviewer - but I have LogMein right now and the free edtition is going away and I think Teamviewer will do the same sooner or later. I have remote desktop but hadnt used it, so I thought it would be a good thing to implement so I wont have to worry about paying fees for services like LogMein or teamviewer down the road.  Long story short I need to be able to remote help friends and family members with their macs and using applications, mostly through screen sharing and control and file sharing. All of the folks id like to help have home ( not business style ) internet service whith DHCP and non-static IP's.  I have set this up for myselft to test it and I can be at work and search my homes IP address and I can see all the macs with ARD on them and it all works perfectly.  I have a mac mini running Lion Server so the ports are forwarded to that server at my home - this is the only think I can think of that is making my home work and my friends not.  But when I try to help my friends and family after I type in their IP and it scans it sees their computer - ( it shows a grayed out icon and their IP ) but nothing else.  I cannot control or screen share. It says it cannot verify.  I helped my friends put the ARD client ( most up to date client ) on their macs as well.  I was hoping that using ARD would mean not haivng to set up my friends and family's routers for port fowarding and all those details.  Is there anything I can do using ARD to be able to type in my friends IP address have it scan and then see all their MACS at their home and pick the one that needs attention/ help, without port forwarding or heavy set up ?  I guess the root question here is how or what is best way to set up ARD to be used to help people remotley when they are all home users as well, no port forwarding, no static-IP, that kinda thing.
    Any help is appreciated - Im trying to use ARD and not a 3rd party app since im afraid even if they are free now they wont stay that way. Please let me know throughts and sugesstions ;p)

    I poked around a bit and the file seems to be:
    /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mms.cfg
    I'd like to get some confirmation from Adobe that this is the correct file to push, though (it seems like it as it only contains this):
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1

  • Help looking for a database

    For years I have relied upon Appleworks for my simple database issues but have not hit a snag. The nature of the data I am now storing requires large numbers of characters to be stored in a single field. Appleworks has a character limit of approx 500. This is next to useless for me.
    Does anyone know either a way around this, the text is either sections of an interview or comments (which can be in excess of 100 words), or of a simple, intuitive alternative that also has the easy switch between the card and list view.
    Any help and all suggestions are very welcome.
    mac mini 1.42 & imac g5 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hello
    Before studying an other tool, it may be time to learn that since its first delivery in year 2000, the text field's limit is not 500 characters (as written in the specs) but 1000 characters.
    If this is not sufficient, it is time to look at an other application:
    FileMaker 8.5
    4th Dimension
    openOffice 2.x
    neoOffice 2.x
    I know that the late two are FREE but I don't know if there is a way to store pictures with them.

  • Looking for a "desktop search" app

    I am using kde, and I am searching for a desktop search app that uses a database and searches within common filetypes.  I've tried a couple so far, and haven't found what I'm looking for:
    kerry/beagle:WAAAY too much bloat; creates ~2gigs of logs per day, once crashed and started loading my filesystem with useless data.
    strigi/clucene: tried it, didn't really work, settings kept on resetting to default.
    I am looking for something that doesn't have heavy gnome dependencies.
    Any suggestions / what are you using?

    Next one...
    RECOLL
    Depends only on Qt and xapian-core (from community).
    All its dependencies are in official repos except for libtextcat and xapian-core (both in community, however).
    Src download is 850Kb, and since the package in [community] is outdated, I built one of my own:
    Targets: recoll-1.90-1 
    Total Package Size:   0.9 MB
    Total Installed Size:   2.6 MB
    Backend:
    It also uses the xapian backend.
    It can run as a daemon that uses FAM or inotify to provide continuous monitoring/indexing, but the docu says it's probably better to run a cronjob.
    While Pinot was using an xml config file, Recoll has a very detailed set of plaintext config files and it can maintain several indexes in parallel (e.g. one with monitoring and one with cronjob indexing).
    plaintext, html and email are handled internally, and for other file types you have to resort to external utilities again, of which unrtf is in community, pstotext is only in AUR and I didn't find id3lib/id3info at all.
    Again, extension is possible. Here you have several steps which take resources and are slightly more complex to set up than in pinot, but probably allow more fine-grained tweaking: you have a mimeconf configuration where you associate mimetype and filter ('application/pdf = exec rclpdf'), you have an assortment of filters ready in /usr/share/recoll/filters, you have a mimemap config file where you can associate filenames/endings and mimetypes (Unfortunately it uses a different format from e.g. mutt's mime.types, but it also includes special, recoll-only settings - like exclude certain files from indexing or associate files with a certain name with a different mimetype when they're in another direcory)
    Search:
    Recoll has its own (qt, non-kde) GUI and is only adressable therewith, thus not integrated with any of the other frontends. (Export for pinot, which should be able to access recoll's xapiandb...)
    You can use proximity and phonetic search, stem expansion and glob/regex expressions. And you can specify search criteria by metainfo (author, subject, keywords). AFAICT, Recoll does not (yet) understand queries that conform to Xesam specs, neither RDF.
    Recoll remembers the last few searches that you performed. You can use a combobox to recall them. However, only the search texts are remembered, not the mode (all/any/file name). (Also documents actually pre-/viewed are remembered.)
    Typing Esc Space while entering a word in the simple search entry will open a window with possible completions for the word. The completions are extracted from the database.
    Double-clicking on a word in the result list or a preview window will insert it into the simple search entry field.
    Search results formatting can be formatted freely with a qt-html expression per default they display several occurancies of the search term along with their respective, (very) limited context. They can be opened either with a mimeview configuration similar to the mimemap file from above or with xdg-open. Or you can view them in an external preview window (which has an incr. search feature). (You have icons for file types but no thumbnails.)
    Experiences:
    System seemed to me to not be so very sluggish when it did the indexing.
    The same directory with ~3100 files, mostly pdf, a few doc and html files, weighing in at 1.5Gb. was indexed in
    real    15m13.378s
    user    8m47.466s
    sys     3m33.439s
    and additional stem databases for german and french took another 50 secs.
    du -h:
    14M     ./xapiandb/stem_english
    15M     ./xapiandb/stem_de
    13M     ./xapiandb/stem_fr
    236M    ./xapiandb
    246M    .
    Recoll UI started up quickly and results were returned almost instantaneously. (Not a complicated search expression, tho) I have not yet tested for complicated expressions or a test search for a term that occurs only rarely, so I cannot tell if the small db size has its drawbacks.
    So these are still open questions:
    [*] monitoring-mode performance impact?
    [*] search expression options: RDF ?
    [*] search results: how accurately?
    [*] attitude towards Xesam and offering services to other frontends?
    What I find interesting is its configurability, and the small db size (well, as of now I have only pinot to compare it with, so maybe it's not so extraordinary after all).
    (Next will be Tracker...)

  • Help please! CC Desktop fails to install -- Adobe cleaner has errors...

    Migod, this CC business is more trouble than it is worth. My latest problem is that I cannot update CC Desktop.

    Good news here
    After booting this morning, and reading Jeff's message, I first went back to try to rename the OOBE folders, and it worked. I then ran the cleaner tool, which completed successfully, and was thus able to reinstall the desktop
    So the problem is resolved. This however raises the question of why the permissions were not granted yesterday, with everything shut down in task manager. I throw out one possibility: I accidentally logged in to my CC account with an older Adobe account, which was not connected with CC. I realized my error after trying to update the desktop, but never had a chance to log out and re-log in with my current CC account, because every time I was only given the option of updating or quitting. Could this have been the cause of the problem? I'm no coder, so I don't know, but basically nothing has changed since I had the problem last night and this morning except the reboot (which anyway I probably should have tried yesterday first thing).
    Anyway thanks to Jeff for his reply.

  • Need some spec help looking on buying mac pro

    Hello
    I have been looking at getting a Mac for quite some time now I have used Windows all my life and I'm tired of it. I happen to have my birthday coming up and I have all this holiday money set aside for a mac pro. Here is my problem I only have around $800 so I cant really get an Intel Mac but I'm easily in the range for the Power Mac. I'm mostly going to play World of Warcraft and do iLife, iWork, and use Adobe CS3 when I get the cash. I'm a little scared though to buy a Power Mac because everything is going to Intel should I be worried. Also should I look for something else instead or just keep waiting for more money I have a 27' TV that supports HDMI and VGA and I would like to have a Mac I can upgrade because I'm going to College here in two years.
    Thanks for all your help in advance

    I would suggest to you to get a macmini.
    its in your budget, and can run all the apps you mentioned.
    In two years, you'll still be able to get something for it if you decide to upgrade to a macpro.
    what kind of powermac were you looking at?

  • Need Help with switching from Desktop to Laptop for Iphone 4s.

    I have an Iphone 4s and I was wondering if it is possible to go from a desktop to a laptop and be able to sync my phone and be able to save everything that I have on my iphone and be able to transfer it to my laptop, such as pics,texts,contacts, apps etc. I have already synced over my music from my desktop to my laptop via flashdrive, i have over 4,000 songs and im not looking to do something like that again. If anyone could get back to me and please let me know if there is a simple solution for this problem that would be great.Thank you.

    You can import pictures from the camera roll to the laptop, you can also create a backup of the iPhone on the laptop, which will take your texts. You need to either sync your contacts to a supported application on the computer, or you can use iCloud. Apps are part of your iTunes. You would need to transfer the purchases on your Apple ID to the new laptop and iTunes. Remember to authorize the computer before you do this. Just remember, the first time you go to sync the phone to the new iTunes, it is going to tell you that the phone is connecting to a different library and that you would erase all the music, but since you have moved all of the music to the new laptop, that won't matter.
