How can I make I-cloud back up only the files created since the last Time-Machine backup?

Hi everyone,
So, I wish to use time-machine to back up every six weeks or so. This means a whole range of files could be lost if my wonderfully fast but terrifyingly unrecoverable solid state hard drive packs up.
Has anyone any idea how I can make Icloud only backup files created since the last time machine backup?
Best
Danny

Automator is not the right solution.
Use a folder action script. Apple has an example here: (Auto-backup Script):
http://www.apple.com/applescript/folderactions/05.html
the steps might have been written for 10.3, so the steps may not be 100% right, but this will do what you want.

How do I archive only the last Time Machine backup?

Hi everyone
So i've done a "clean reinstall" of Lion and restored some of my files manually from TM backup located on an external hardrive by dragging them over via Finder. Now I want to delete all old TM backups on my ext hardrive and only save the last backup (the one I did before the Lion reinstall).
If I save the latest TM backup folder (named ~/Backups.backupdb/~/2012-04-11-233905) and delete all the older ones – would that save my entire last backup? Or does that folder contain aliases to other files in previous backup folders? i.e. does the last created Time Machine backup folder contain all files from the last backup?
Please help.

Linc, you don't seem to understand my problem – i want to start my TM backups from scratch from my "new" computer and archive the last backup I did on my "old" one. I don't need all the other backupped versions from my "old" computer – just the last backup which I want to archive.
My question is still:
Is there a way to archive my entire last backup (and delete all the previous ones)?

How can I make all my tracks start at the same time? In bar 0 to be more specific

How can I make custom cloud brushes?

How can I make custom cloud brushes?

I can't stand the limitations of the Contacts method of printing address labels. I don't want to waste a partial sheet if my selection doesn't come out even with the number of labels. I'd like to duplicate addresses which I use often to fill up the partial sheet. I like being creative with fonts, colors and even borders or images. Your ability to be creative with Contacts printing is severely limited.
I've used Pay&Play's Label Printer Pro software for years. I originally paid MUCH more for this program. It's extremely versitle. Design one label and you can copy it to the rest of the labels in the drop down menu with one click. Chose how many of whichever lablel you want to duplicate with a simple cut and paste to fill up the page.
I can vouch that it works perfectly with Mountain Lion, v 10.8.2.
Here's the link to their direct download from their website for $6.95:
http://www.payplaysoftware.com/download.html
Or you can look up Label Printer Pro 7 on the app store and pay $9.99.
No, I don't work for or have any ties to the company other than being a satisfied customer of a product which suits my needs perfectly.

How can I make signature darker when I print the report?

I need to put my manager's signature on the report. The signature is too light, How can I make it darker when I print the report?
I used file link and OLE, both did't make it.
Thanks.

No way to do it directly in the report. You need to work with signature image file using any graphic software to increase its contrast. The easiest probably would be to use Paintbrush and change the image to black-and-white, then save back as jpeg file.

How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server?

How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server when I delete them on my iPad?
Can anyone help me whith this?
I tried to use the pop account in gmail settings but that was downloading all my emails sice 2008 ( more than 300 deleted emails tha can only be found in the deleted email box), when I just have 5 or 6 email in the inbox .
How can I solve this????
Thank u all...

I have the same problem. For years I have been able to delete emails from my ipad and have them remain on the server so I can deal with them on the desktop. Now they get deleted from the server when deleted from the ipad, which makes the ipad unless for reading mail.
You answered to delete the email account on the ipad and set up a new one as a pop. I have made many attempts to do that in the incomping mail server "Host Name" field but it always errors out even when the host name is equal to what my desk top has. So I can see no way to change away from IMAP. I started with an ipad 1 and now have an ipad 2.

I have three computers backing up onto the same Time Machine. The Hard drive of one has now failed, and I'd like to restore certain items (principally photographs) to one of the other two computers. How can I do this?

GB for iPad doesn't have volume automation, you'd need to import the project into GB on a Mac to create the fade with a volume curve.
as an alt, finish your song and export the audio file, then import the audio file in an audio editor and create a volume fade with that:

How can I make a check box active ONLY if another check box is activated?

How can I make a check box active ONLY if another check box is activated?
I have an editable PDF for a client, which contains text fields and check box fields.
There are three main check boxes (let's call them A, B and C) that the user is required to choose from, and I have given all three the same name in the Name tab of the General tab menu but different export values in order that ONLY one of the boxes can be checked at any time. Ticking one will deactivate another if it is already checked, etc.
However, I then have a further two check boxes which I wish to become available ONLY if the second one of the above three boxes is checked. Other than that I do not wish the user to have access to them.
I'm guessing it requires some kind of Action Script or Javascript, which is not my forté! Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards
Tony

how can i make voiceover read paragraphs than reading the entire page of an ebook

If you are using rectangle as layer or accordion menu then you can use 100% width for these page items.
In control strip options , when you select the rectangle you can view 100% width button which would make it browser width.

That is the way Mac OS X 10.8 (aka Mountain Lion) works by default. Are you actually running that system? (See About This Mac in the Apple menu.) If so, make sure the check box in the shut down alert is checked:
