How do I get Lightroom 4 to automatically create an xmp file?*

Assuming you have RAW photos
Edit->Catalog Settings > Metadata then check “Automatically Write Changes to XMP”
Not RAW photos ... the same setting causes the metadata to be written into the files, but does not create an xmp file

How do I get Lightroom to find photos on a USB Drive when the Drive letter changes?

THis is probably a simple question but I keep getting stuck. I ha
ve my catalog and some images on my laptop hard drive, but the majority are on
an external USB drive. Sometoimes the drive gets assigned
E:, F;, or G:, and when it cahnges, the catalog says the phots are missing. How do I get
Lightroom to find the photos again?
Tom Barnwell

The quick fix is to click on the folder containing the missing files and choose "update Folder Location" then find the folder on the USB drive. The longer term and fix you should apply is to set Windows to always give the USB the same drive letter. You can do this through the XP Disk Management application in Computer Management (Control Panel applet). The following screenshot is for XP, but Vista and Win 7 will something similar which can be accessed via Administrative Tools (see second screenshot).

I downloaded the new Pages and Numbers through my app store but when I open my old documents, it still tells me my 30 day trial is over. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize the new applications?

More information: I have a 3 year old MacBook and had been using "Microsoft for Mac" until last week when I took my MacBook in for some upgrades- including the operating system Lion. I have been unable to use the Word, Excel, etc. programs because they are not supported on the new operating system... and I already used my 30 day trial of iWork when we first purchased the computer. I decided to buy Pages and Numbers through the App Store icon. When I open the Pages and Numbers under my Applications, I can get them to work. However, when I open old documents saved on my computer, they go into the 'old' iWork messages of that my trial has expired. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize that I've purchased Pages and Numbers?

You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

Just download and install 5.7.1. Don't worry about earlier versions.
You'll need to enter your serial number to license the software.

How do I get Lightroom 4 to recognize my .nef raw pics from D5300 Nikon?

Adobe lists my D5300 Nikon as compatible, and others I know can upload .nef from different Nikons. (Don't know another with D5300 to ask)
Don't know what I am doing wrong.
I am using Windows 8.1, and no updates are listed for Windows or for my version of Lightroom 4.
Any help on how to get Lightroom 4 to view and upload .nef files?
I did have to install a codex in windows to view .nef. But that didn't help my LR4.

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The above list shows that support for the Nikon D5300 was introduced in Lightroom version 5.3.
You have two options a. Upgrade to LR version 5 (latest version is 5.5) or b. Download and utilize the Adobe DNG Converter version 8.3 or later, to convert the .nef files from the D5300 to dng format. Lightroom version 4 will be able to read and process the dng files.
If you choose the b. option its best you use the option to retain your original raw files. For one your Nikon software will not read the dng files.

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives?

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives for files? I have a number of audio and video files located all over my computer. However, my music folder is located in one place. I only want ITunes to look there to ad music to my IPod? I don't want to add any videos to my IPod however, it automatically scans for this as well. Infact... I don't want ITunes to automatically scan for anything. Why is this doing this?

You can configure iTunes to sync only a subset of your music. Create a playlist in iTunes of the music you want on the iPod, and change the iPod sync settings. More info is here.

How do I get a codec which will support my avi files from my D90?

Lightroom 5.5 is the latest version. If you don't want to wait for the next release, you can download Adobe DNG Converter 8.6RC which will transform your D810 NEFs into DNGs that the current version of Lightroom can use.
Download Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 8.6 Beta - Adobe Labs
The above URL will evidently download both Camera Raw and the DNG Converter release candidates.
