How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

You can back up the iPhone to your Mac with iTunes.
Make sure, your iTunes version is up to date. Connect your iPhone to an USB port and launch iTunes.
See this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you want a separate folder with your photos, download the camera roll contents by connecting the iPhone to USB. You emac will see it as camera and you can download the photos using Image Capture to a folder on your Mac, or using iPhoto or Aperture to your photo library.

  • How can I back up only iTunes and iPhoto to an external HDD

    How can I back up only iTunes and iPhoto, so I can reformat my computer and restore the files in these two programs?  I have an external, but its not big enough to create a time machine copy of my HDD.  I have an iMac running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.  I am also running Windows 8 via Parallels and I would prefer to keep this partition in tact, but if thats not possible I'll re instal that program.  
    Some how Mackeeper and a couple other shady programs have been installed on my computer and what I want to do is reformat my computer. 

    You could drag the iPhoto and iTunes folders to the external drive and move them back later.
    However, it might be easier to just remove MacKeeper and other adware.
    See the post by John Galt in this thread about removing MacKeeper.
    Apple Support help for removing adware can be found here: Remove unwanted adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac - Apple Support

    How can I back up my files if USB are disabled.

    Removing your hard drive and putting it into a 2.5 inch SATA external case would allow you to connect your drive to another computer and access your files.

  • How can I back up my files during a Kernel Panic?

    Hello, I am new to these forums.
    Okay, so last week I updated my Macbook Pro like I normally do (I'm assuming it was 10.5.7), but then when I restarted my macbook I saw the apple logo and then the screen turned grey and a bunch of numbers and letters filled the screen (which I now know is a Kernel Panic or something).
    I am unable to login at all or even see the log-in screen, all I can get to is the apple logo when I first turn on the computer. I plan on making an appointment at my local apple store, but they told me to back up any files I didn't want to lose.
    So my question is...
    How can i back up my files during a Kernel Panic if I can't even log in?
    I have my original disks from when I got my macbook pro if that's any help?
    Should I just tell my local apple store that I need help backing up my files?
    or am I screwed?
    Thanks for any help

    Well, when I turn it on a box appears over the apple logo and says something like "please restart your machine or hold the power button for 7 seconds".
    and the numbers and letters appear random to someone like me but I'm sure it says something to someone who knows about it. At the very beginning of the "random" numbers and letter it says something about kernel and panic and I googled some of the message and it kept leading me to other people who said it was a kernel panic.
    Also I tried to start it while holding shift and it never goes to single user mode it just does the same thing as if I never pushed or held shift. I'll try the whole firewire thing if I can figure it out, but I don't have another mac so I'd have to do it with a PC.
    Edit: Also I did one of those hardware tests using the osx dvd and the short test said i have an error (and when i googled that error it brought me to people with kernel panics) but when I did the extended test that took about an hour and a half it came back saying everything was fine.

  • How can one  read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.

    How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.
    1. Excel File is on My PC.
    2. And I want to write a Stored Procedure or Package to do that.
    3. DataBase is on Other Server. Client-Server Environment.
    4. I am Using Toad or PlSql developer tool.

    If you would like to create a package/procedure in order to solve this problem consider using the UTL_FILE in built package, here are a few steps to get you going:
    1. Get your DBA to create directory object in oracle using the following command:
    create directory TEST_DIR as ‘directory_path’;
    Note: This directory is on the server.
    2. Grant read,write on directory directory_object_name to username;
    You can find out the directory_object_name value from dba_directories view if you are using the system user account.
    3. Logon as the user as mentioned above.
    Sample code read plain text file code, you can modify this code to suit your need (i.e. read a csv file)
    function getData(p_filename in varchar2,
    p_filepath in varchar2
    ) RETURN VARCHAR2 is
    input_file utl_file.file_type;
    --declare a buffer to read text data
    input_buffer varchar2(4000);
    begin
    --using the UTL_FILE in built package
    input_file := utl_file.fopen(p_filepath, p_filename, 'R');
    utl_file.get_line(input_file, input_buffer);
    --debug
    --dbms_output.put_line(input_buffer);
    utl_file.fclose(input_file);
    --return data
    return input_buffer;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • How can i make shorten systemlog files and joblog files on OS

    Hello
    How can i make shorten systemlog files and joblog files on OS

    Hello Jan,
    You can limit the size of system log.
    The size of the application server's System Log is determined by the
    following SAP profile parameters. Once the current System Log reaches
    the maximum file size, it gets moved to the old_file and and a new
    System Log file gets created. The number of past days messages in the
    System Log depends on the amount/activity of System Log messages and the
    max file size. Once messages get rolled off the current and old files,
    they are no longer retrievable.
    rslg/local/file /usr/sap/<SID>/D*/log/SLOG<SYSNO>
    rslg/local/old_file /usr/sap/<SID>/D*/log/SLOGO<SYSNO>
    rslg/max_diskspace/local 1000000
    rslg/central/file /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/SLOGJ
    rslg/central/old_file /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/SLOGJO
    rslg/max_diskspace/central
    Refer to http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/c7/69bcbaf36611d3a6510000e835363f/content.htm
    for explanation of profile parameters.you can reduce the size of system log using rslg/max_diskspace_local and rslg/max_diskspace_central
    But you can't reduce the size of job log files on OS

  • How can i password protect some files and web sites?

    How can I possword protect some files and web sites on my mac air so others using my laptop can't access them?

    Set a password for your user; create other user accounts for when other people want to use it. You can create a "guest" login which gets wiped after every logout, if that's more appropriate for them.

  • How can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    how can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    Yes.  You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
    If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

    If you purchase the iPad, keep in mind that some Apps may not be compatible with it.

  • Hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can I see the hidden file and erase it?

    I had to make a file starting "." and had to put it on my FTP client. I made it by Text Edit and Microsoft word and save it. Since it is hidden file, I can't see on my Mac but when I use the FTP client and click post, the file listing was showed up and I can check as "Show Hidden file". Then I could post the files on the FTP client. However, since I don't need it on my computer, I'd like to erase it but can't find the files. How can I find the hidden files? Thank you.

    if you know the folder then navigate to that folder. Open the Terminal application in your Utiities folder and do the following::
    Enable Finder to Show Invisible Files and Folders
    Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following command line then press RETURN.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
    To turn off the display of invisible files and folders enter or paste the following command line and press RETURN.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
    Alternatively you can use one of the numerous third-party utilities such as TinkerTool or ShowHideInvisibleFiles - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • How can I read the bootstrap files and extract the fragment-URLs and fragment-numbers in plain text?

    How can I read the bootstrap files of any HDS Live stream and extract the fragment-URLs and fragment-numbers in plain text?
    Could it be that it is some kind of compressed format in the bootstrap? Can I uncompress it wirh  f4fpackager.exe? Could not find any download for f4fpackager.exe. I would prefere less code to do so. Is there something in Java of JavaScript, that can extract the fragment-numbers?
    Thank you!

    Doesn't sound too hard to me. Your class User (the convention says to capitalize class names) will have an ArrayList or Vector in it to represent the queue, and a method to store a Packet object into the List. An array or ArrayList or Vector will hold the 10 user objects. You will find the right user object from packet.user_id and call the method.
    Please try to write some code yourself. You won't learn anything from having someone else write it for you. Look at sample code using ArrayList and Vector, there's plenty out there. Post in the forum again if your code turns out not to behave.

  • HT201441 How can i change the e-mail and password for the iphone

    Hi there,
    I bought my iphone as a 2nd hand from someone i dont know his adress.Then i made an update to the iphone and its says that i have to write the previous e-mail and the password which i dont know any of them and i couldnt find that person now.
    So please if you can help me, what should i do in this case? Becouse the iphone at this moment is useless.
    Best Regards

    No, there is no solution - search these forums if you like for similar posts.  Without knowing the registered owners password there is no way to disable Activation Lock.  Apple will not give you that password, nor reset it for you, nor give you any personal information about the registered owner.
    If you cannot contact that original owner, or they refuse to help you, then you now own a brick.  If you can, go back to the seller and get your money back.  It is reasonably likely though, that they did not actually own the device to sell it in the first place.
