How do i find out what teachers editions and resources are available to compliment etextbooks?
I'm researching the possibility of using iPads for our school but I need to make sure that we can get the appropriate teacher resources to go along with the textbooks. Where can I find these?
I would contact the publisher of the textbook directly. Apple is just a store, not a publisher.

I've emptied trash, removed files, discarded everything I don't use and my startup disc is still full. Half of it is 'other'. How do I find out what 'other' is and remove it? I'm using a Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). Any help will be treasured!

See Pondiini's The Storage Display, for details. -
my mac book pro has got 41 GB of other stuff on it clogging it up how do I find out what is rubbish and delete it. To free up some memory. I can't believe I have filled it up intentionally.
For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning your files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal. -

How do I find out what "new" features, if any, are in incremental version updates to CC?
In olden days, Adobe would tell you what was fixed and what was added to new micro-versions of a product. I've noticed now that when I get an update to Photoshop or Bridge, it can be over 100mb but nowhere does it say what the update is for like new features, bug fixes, etc. Does anyone know if there is a version changelog or anything similar that explains what each new incremental update does or fixes? Since we are paying now for our Photoshop and new implementations are supposed to be included (thus no more major new versions), I'd like to know what these new incremental updates actually do and what new and wonderous things Adobe has come up with. Anyone know??
Hi,
You can read about the 14.1.1 & 2 updates here:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2013/09/photoshop-cc-14-1-1-update-now-available.html
For the new features in 14.1, you can find them here:

How can I find out what apps I've purchased are stored in the cloud
I changed phones and am trying to find out if the apps that I have purchased on my iPhone are stored in the cloud so I can bring them down to my ipod touch.
Unless they've been removed from the iTunes Store, they'll be available in the iCloud; click here and follow the instructions. Note that a few iOS applications won't work on an iPod touch.

How do I find out what Verizon's basic rates are without a promotion?
I am a long time (perhaps since the inception of the name Verizon) Verizon customer, and moved to fios services several years ago when they offered an excellent promotion. Unfortunately, the promotion that the sales person offered was never delivered to me by written contract, only as a promotional flyer, for which Verizon seemed to have a strange interpretation. But that was long ago and I figured Verizon came "close enough". Once the promotion time was up, my bill escalated.
I went on line to try to find anywhere that listed how much the fios Double Play Bundle of Internet and Freedom Essentials would cost at the non-promotional rate. I didn't find the information, so I called service and asked what they could do for me. I received a "valued customer" discount for $30 a month off my bill, but was never told where to find actual service rates. Now that the discount is no longer being applied, my bill has risen again.
So again I went online and searched in at least a dozen ways for the actual cost of my bundle without consideration of promotions. The information is not to be found. The only price I see are promotions for $74.99 or 79.99. I am being charged 112.99 before fees taxes etc. It doesn't actually say those are promotions for new customers only. When I called customer service, the agent informed me that they were, in fact, for new customers. The only way to get any kind of discount again would be to upgrade to triple internet speed at $99.99 per month. So Verizon's idea is to keep enticing you to increase your service level.
But what happens when you reach the end of the line. How much will those services actually cost when you've reached the top of the ladder? Sure I can check my bill, but the point is to see if I am being over charged. I want to know where the true basic rates are listed. The service person said that I would have to sign in to find them. So I signed in and still find only promotions.
It's important to have basic rates in order to know how to evaluate the promotions and to plan for future costs. It's also important to be able to understand when one is considered a "new" customer. Evidently, if I change my service I am once again new. If I go to triple play, I get a bundle deal. If I get a deal with less service, do I also get a promotional rate? Nowhere is that explained. Somehow a contract fits in with all this confusion. I've been a customer for ages, but without a contract. There is no explanation of how a contract differs from getting a 2 year promo without a contract.
I might not necessarily change my plan even with full disclosure, but at least I would feel that my decision is based on rational choice rather than trickery.
Has anybody found this secret information?You've checked the purchase history on your account ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it which you can click on (the most recent purchase will be above the list).
Or did you have an auto-renewing subscription that was due : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098 ?
If you changed your credit card details on your iTunes account then a small temporary store holding charge may have been made to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

How do I find out what my username and password is for my wireless network
My printer works through the wireless network, but my scanner doesn't recognize my computer. I'm thinking I have a username/password issues.
I don't think that its user name and password issue .
As you Printer is working fine with your wireless network that means the router is communicating with the Printer .
For the Scanner check the settings on your printer itself for the Scanner function . -
How do I find out what is being captured and applied?
Hi,
I have the following issue i'm trying to understand.
My test 2-way streams setup (10.2.0.3 on windows) was stopped/broken for some weeks. I got around to starting to fix it yesterday. Since then its been sat there scanning through logs starting from the 21st of May 2007 (and still on the 21st). There are large number of messages being captured queued and propagated (8378901+ at the mo). This would make some sense if there had been constant changes going through for the past weeks but there haven't. I've created and dropped a table, inserted a couple of rows, and maybe created an index but thats it.
So what is going on?
Is there a way to peek into the queues and see the contents of these messages?
How do I find out what its doing and why?Hi,
You can know what is being applied using the following query:
select sid, event, p1, p2, state, seconds_in_wait, sq.SQL_ID, sql_text

where sid in (select sid
from v$streams_apply_coordinator
union all

<Serial Number Edited by Host>I got the hard drive upgrade kit and now have the old drive in the On-The-Go-Pro external enclosure and the new drive in the Macbook Pro. I booted from the old drive and now I'm ready to restore to the new drive using Disk Utility but I'm not sure exactly what to select as the Source and Destination.
Three disks are listed in the left frame. The new Samsung disk, the old drive in the OTGPro external enclosure with a volume called "Macintosh HD" and something called "disk 2" with a volume of Mac OS X Base System under it.
I think I should select "Macintosh HD" as the source and the Samsung Drive as the destination. But I'm not certain.
What's the correct source and destination? -
Hello
Who can help me? I made a movie in Final Cut. Not a special one, some text and that's all. With scenes from mu Sony camera, I imported. When i want to share the movie (to facebook, youtube, or masterfile), it won't work. It loads upto 57% or so and that it quits, and gives error code:
the operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 3490 (error -1).
And now? I can't find framenumbers? How can i find out what's wrong. I tried everything. The film plays well in playback. I just can't make a filmfile.
Xandra StormLike Tom said, you can locate the offending frame by switching in Preferences->General the Time Display to "Frames" (that is how it looks in 10.1; I believe that in older versions the same preference might be in Edit or Playback preferences, I can't recall exactly).
When this error occurs, it can usually be solved by deleting render files, or by replacing the clip where the problematic frame happened. -
HT1420 how do i find out what computers are authorized?
I have the problem that as I switch to a new iphone, all of a sudden i get the message from itunes that "you have already authorized 5 computers". I have had a couple of laptops that I no longer have access to. How do I find out what machines i have linked and remove machines from that list?
However, it seems that you can check...

This helped meRe: can i check/edit authorized computers?? Jul 5, 2012 7:25 AM (in response to koraygoksu)
In order to see which devices are authorized on your account:
Open iTunes
Click Store
Click Account
Click View Account
Enter your password
Look in the second section iTunes in the Cloud
To the far right you'll see Manage Devices
Once it's clicked you will see all of the devices currently authorized in iTunes/on your account
I was going to say, "Hope this helps," but based on the above, I'm pretty sure it did!
Thanks guys..."

Re: can i check/edit authorized computers?? Jul 5, 2012 9:27 AM (in response to Tina16)
For anyone who may come across this thread, Tina is incorrect. That doesn't show all the systems that are authorized to a given account, only those which are set up for automatic downloads or redownloading, which isn't the same as those that are authorized to an account to play protected content. There is no way to see a list of those systems which are authorized to the account.
