How do I get my iMac AirPort to only lock onto my wirless router and not others?
Everytime I power up my iMac I have to use the AirPort drop down menu to select my Wi-Fi network from a long list.
Is there a way to set my Air Port Preferences so that it always only picks up my Wi-Fi signal automatically?
Saving me the time form always having to select it....
Please advise
In System Prefs -> Network -> Advanced Tab see if your network is at the top of the list. If not, click and drag it there.

How do i get my imac to remember my login details on my email and Facebook without remembering my passwords?? iAt the moment i have to type each time i visit my sites??
Open Applications and the the Utility folder and then Keychain Access app. In there you will find all the usernames and password that have been saved. For some reason it is not saving those passwords and or not using the ones that have been saved.
This is fairly common with Mac OS X as it happens for no apparent reason just all of a sudden. -
how do I get bookmarks on the toolbar to open in the current tab, and not open in a new tab?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I have 4 devices (iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4s, iPad2, Mini iPad) on an iTunes whose computer hard drive is dead. How do I get my devices on a new iTunes on a different computer and not wipe out my contents?
This should be of great help to you.

How do I get a numbers spread sheet to open where I left it and not start from the beginning every time I open it?
There is no built-in setting for redirecting a bookmark to a new tab.
Is it possible that the computer which does that has an add-on such as the Tab Mix Plus extension installed? TMP has a setting for that (Events > Tab Opening).

Is there a way to reset the default CD burner? I have an internal pioneer burner the DVR105, and an external firewire La Cie burner. The La Cie burner is much newer and will burn properly. However, itunes 7 is trying to burn to the internal DVR105 only, and it keeps giving me errors.
How can I get Itunes to burn to the healthy la Cie? I know my Toast software recognizes it...I have burned DVDs to the La Cie many times before in Toast. Itunes offers me no option to select which burner to use, unlike Toast. My OS is Panther.
thx
c-postSorry, Itunes is not giving me that dialog. Lemme tell you, it did give me a related dialog earlier today when my La Cie was not connected. Apparently it defaulted back to the Pioneer at that time. I have since reconnected the La Cie, and the system is seeing it, however Itunes won't offer me the option to burn to the La Cie. It just burns to the Pioneer, then gives me an error saying it can't burn the CD.

I've already copied my iTunes folder onto my external hardrive. I'm having problems getting iTunes to pull the information from the external hardrive and not the computer's internal one, though. Any suggestions on how to get it to work?
iTunes works off of an ITL file in the iTunes folder
instead of dragging the folder out of the external hardrive and onto the desktop just do this
-hold shift key and double click iTunes to open it up
-you will get a prompt asking to create a new library or choose library, click choose library
-an explorer window will open up and you are going to navigate to the external hard drive and open the iTunes folder
-in the iTunes folder you are going to find a file that doesn't look like a folder but a page with a corner folded on it that is your iTunes library file
-double click the iTunes library file and your library will appear and you are good to go
WARNING: this is a good method for making sure your music doesn't take all of your computer's storage but keep in mind if you remove the external hard drive from the computer you may have issues accessing the library example next to the song titles -
How can I get the erasure tool to leave a white or color background and not checkered?
When using the erasure or erasure background tools, it leaves a checkered background. How can I get the erasure tool to leave a white or color backround?
Jpegs can't have transparent areas. Most likely you had layers and were forced to save "as a copy", which means that the image which remains open in PSE is not the jpg. A file saved as a copy makes a copy in the save format, but it's not like save as where you now see the newly saved version instead of the original. The original remains open and unsaved onscreen.

How do I get my music on my iPhone to play all my songs and not just repeat one song?
How do I get the music on my iPhone 4S to play all of my songs instead of just repeating 1 song?
You have Repeat turned on. While playing music, tap the screen so that you see the scrubber bar showing the time. See that icon on the left side? That's Repeat. Tap it until it is white to turn it OFF.

I purchased an album on itunes and everything was fine. Then when I reconnected my ipod and it did some autosync (which I have it set up to do manual sync) it added every single song a second time, but apparently they are some sort of internet file, that will only play when I have internet connection. These files won't show up through my computer at all and I can't figure out a way to delete them directly from my ipod either. It's incredibly annoying as when I try to listen the album it plays through two songs, then automatically quits playing when it gets to these phantom files...
This is not an itunes question at all.
Try posting in a more appropriate forum. -
I use a small Acer laptop on trips. I read email on it, but leave the mail on the server (POP acct at my university) for download at home onto my desktop. My problem is that the laptop does not recognize what it has already copied to my inbox, and so adds a new copy of all mail (that is on server) each time I "get" my mail. Is there some way that I can get it to only "get" what mail it does not already have ?
try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored. -
I am using Mac Mail on Mac Air with 10.10. I have a multi line signature but it looks double spaced and I can't get it to look like a single spaced signature. I tried different fonts and sizes.
Appreciate your assistance.
FranI Finally resolved my problem after much research. On my I pad 4 with retina in the field under settings there is a list to choose from-- ex. Aol,Google, yahoo, etc. I chose other and entered att. Used pw and bingo! Problem resolved. It is somewhat configured a little different; but at least I can get all of my 500 e mails.
apple takes IMAP but this is under pop And at least my persistence paid off. You would think something so simple would be informative to us in a better way. -

How can i get my Acer laptop to recognise my IPhone as an IPhone and not a Camera?
I want to transfer music from my Acer Notebook to my iPhone 3gs but it says its a camera! Help please!
Do you have iTunes installed on your computer.
You cannot just drag and drop music on to your iPhone as we normally do on Android or other phones. If you are trying to copy songs from computer to iPhone you should only sync them through iTunes, So if you dont have iTunes please download and install and import al music to iTunes library first so that you can sync same with iPHOne.
Link to download iTunes
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Important : When you do this the music which is already on the iPhone would be replaced with the music that you are going to sync with. So if the current songs on the iPHone is already on the computer iTunes library then you can either just sync the entire music library
