How do I get things off my start of disk with out losing them?  I am new to this and my computer is letting me know that my start up disk is almost full

Don't want to lose things.  I have the apple back up... just not sure how they all work..:(

Please follow the directions in this support article. If there's no change, see below.
Back up all data. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to keep or delete the keychain items. Choose to delete and confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device. Test.

  • HT4007 How can I get rid of duplicates in a project with out deleting them one by one?

    How can I get rid of duplicates in a project without deleting them one by one?

    What kind of duplicates? Did you import the same image file several times? Aperture does not have any built-in tools to detect duplicates. You will have to do delete the one by one. You could arrange the images by date, so that duplicates are shown side by side in the Browser. Or use a tool like Duplicate Annihilator (the program is not free). I have never tested it but some do recommend it.

    There are several ways. The two easiest are to click the Junk icon to turn it off or right click the message and select Mart As-Not Junk.

  • I get my iPhone 5 from UAE AND no one inform me that no FaceTime there and I am living in lebanon I am lebanese so who will except my iPhone 5 here in Lebanon with out FaceTime I lost my money in this and Mac should replace our iPhone pls

    I get my iPhone 5 from UAE AND no one inform me that no FaceTime there and I am living in lebanon I am lebanese so who will except my iPhone 5 here in Lebanon with out FaceTime I lost my money in this and Mac should replace our iPhone pls

    Why you bought from the UAE .
    The phone has NO international warranty and its the UAE and Saudia Arabian authorities that have instructed the function (facetime) to be removed not Apple.
    Your best option is to return it to Dubai when next there.
    OR contact these companies and see if you can trade to a Facetime friendly model from Europe

  • We were wondering how you stop some apps from running with out deleting them something like a task manager and in my settings im missing the application button in it how do i get it back and stop some apps its making it run really slow

    how do you stop apps with out deleting them i have looked for something like a task manager and nothing and researched about it and it says to go into your settings and then click applications but i dont have one can someone please help[ me thank you

    Double click the Home button. The bottom row shows the recently used apps. Touch and hold the app until they all start to wiggle then tap the circled minus sign by apps you want to remove. Press the Home button to return to normal.
    However, that is recently used apps not apps doing something. Some apps will do things all the time/periodically like checking for Notification, new mail. Yu can turn those off in the apps themselves.
    Just what are you trying to accomplish?

  • Installing Maverick on my Mac lost almost all of the calendar entries. They are still on my iPhone and new entries move freely to both devices via iCloud. How do I get the entries from my iPhone to iCloud without losing them from iPhone?

    Like many others after I installed Maverick I found that all the calendar history has been lost and most of the forward info has also been lost. Also in order to get calendar, contacts and notes to sync with the iPhone I have had to move to iCloud. Contacts and notes sync fine. new calendar entries sync ok. My iPhone has all the calendar entries that were on the Mac before I installed Maverick. So far iCloud has not overwritten them nor have they synced onto iCloud.
    How can I get all the entries from my iPhone onto iCloud, without losing the only copy of my calendar from my iPhone?
    Thanks Apple for deciding to take over my privacy. I do not want this data stored on a US based server. Fortunately Mail still syncs via my own email provider. I guess Apple will find a way to stop that soon too!

    Greetings Nefertiti72,
    It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
    Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
    Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
    You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
    iCloud: Import a vCard
    You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
    In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
    Select a vCard to import.
    The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How can I get ilife (iphoto/imovie) on my Used Retina ... Previously purchased new mbp 17 and have an Imac 27....

    Well I just purchased another Retina mbp 15 and this ones a keeper (sold 2 before this was just looking for a mint one).  Now my issue is I cant get ilife (in particular imovie and iphoto) without purchasing it and I dont want to do that.... yet.
    I did purchase a brand new mbp 17 in 2010 but not sure if I registered it or logged into the app store. Dont think I did because I dont see any downloads available in the app store.
    I have an imac 27 Im using right now and I dug up the appllications cd it came with. 
    My questions are:
    How can I install ilife or any of the apps without buying them?
    Are the applications one use only for the specific machines?
    Is there any way to use the resource dvd to install onto my retina ?
    (regarding this I have tried using remote disc and my retina wont show anything under remote disc when the cd is in my ima )
    ANy input or help is appreciated. I did enjoy using imove and iphoto alot and would like to have them again.

    I appreciate the replies. Grant if I have an Imac and the apps on the cd then what you are saying is it should be tied to my apple id and therefore I should be able to install them on my new macbook?
    I dont recall when I bought my mbp 17 if it had a cd and back then it was my first mac.. dont think there was an app store just itunes. It isnt tied to my account but shouldnt it be? I guess the person who bought that 17 from me got a free bundle :/
    Its not a matter of $30 I understand that fully. Its just its $30 wasted if I am able to get it.
    What im confused about (and I dont care to argue apples reasoning for it) is tying ilife to 'that Mac alone" is just dumb when a new owner of a machine cant install it and has to buy it again. that means the original owner keeps the apps for any machine he wishes and it isnt for the machine.
    I think im confusing myself and possibly answered my own question but ill leave it lol.

  • How can I do a clean install of Snow Leopard with out losing iLife applications?

    I bought my Macbook pro in 2009 and am currently running the Leopard software. I want to do a clean install of Snow Leopard, but I do not want to lose my iLife applications.  I lost the DVD's that came with the computer. Is there any way I can do a clean install of Snow Leopard with out losing my iLife applications?
    Will a regular installation of Snow Leopard allow the App store to recognize that my computer has iLife and mark it as a purchased item in my account. If it can, then would I be able to do a clean install and re-download the apps for free.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    1. Install Snow Leopard normally; this will keep the applications intact. An actual clean installation involves either erasing the partition or creating a blank one, and neither of those will carry the applications over.
    2. The previous iLife installation won't carry over to the Mac App Store, and the Mac App Store versions are incompatible with Snow Leopard.

    how do i get my music off my ipod touch and on to my new itune account with out losing my music

    Transfer the iTunes folder from your old computer to your new computer. It's in your My Music >> iTunes folder. You'll probably need an external hard drive to do this. Make sure you upgrade the old and the new computers to the latest iTunes before transferring your music to the new machines.

  • How do I get pictures off my Old de-active device?

    How do I get pictures off my old de active device.  The device still works I just upgraded and now would like my pictures put on my PC.

    If the device has an SD card (micro SD) then you can save the pics to that and transfer to your PC.  If there is no SD option,  you can reactivate the device, text the pics to your email individually, then reactivate the new phone.
    Or you can try BitPim - it may work on your old device, just google for it.
