Ok so how can i just back up the newer photos to my iPhoto library on my EHD? If it overwrites the backed up library it will delete the older photos that I backed up and then deleted from my iMac HD.
Do you want to back up only your photos and not your current library? Then you will not get a backup of your albums, books, calendars, ..
A lot ofyour organizational work will not be backed up, if you only save the newer photos.
To find the new photos create a smart album:
From Photo's main menu bar: File > New > Smart album
and add a rule: Date is after .... ; enter the date of your last backup.
Then export the photos from this album to a folder on your backup drive.
File > Export > Original
But it would be much better simply to copy the iPhoto library to the external drive, after renaming the older library, so that it will not be overwritten.

You might consider to let TimeMachine do the work and keep track of changed versions.
Use Time Machine to backup the library regularly, so you always can restore a current version aand can find older photos that have been deleted, and make occisiona snapshots of the whole library on a second backup drive. -
Because our desktop computer died several days ago, I was obviously unable to deactivate Photoshop 6. Once I get the new desktop, how do I go about re-installing it?
You can activate on up to 2 computers. If you have not used up the second activation, you can go ahead and install/activate on the new one and call Customer Service to release or reset your activations.

How do I make sure helpful people get credit?
I could not find any topic that relates to this in the discussion list. My question is this: I often click on the "helpful" button when on your discussion website. I'm very pleased with the level of help. I'm concerned that people who solve my problems don't get credit. After I've clicked on the helpful button, I find later that the response actually solved my problem. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to change (or add) "solved" to my initial "helpful" response. How do I do that?
Preface To Hosts: The OP asked!

I have 2 Mac computers- one in 2 different houses but use the same iTunes acct. When I purchase a song on one computer- it will not show up in the ITUNE library on the other- even after signing in-- how do I update the different computer's iTunes library?
You should be able to turn on Automatic Downloads under iTunes > Preferences > Store and it should automatically get a copy of anything you buy.
If you only want stream it and have it show as an iTunes in the Cloud item make sure that is checked on the Preferences > Store -
I have labeled old family photos with names that I would like to share at a family reunion via DVD. When I export the photos to make the DVD, the old photo labels are back rather than the new labels with names. Can I export the photos with the new titles?
iPhoto shows you these Titles but the Finder shows you Filenames
If you export (File -> Export) you'll get the Export dialogue. Note the option at FileName to use the Title as filename for the exported photo -
All of my music does not show it was downloaded to ICloud. How do I download not only purchased but cd music to the ICloud?
You've subscribed to iTunes Match on your computer's iTunes and uploaded your music to it from your computer, as on the HT4914 page that you posted from ? And you've turned on Match on your phone ? Without Match your own music won't go into the cloud and be avilable for streaming/downloading.

So I took a picture of a generic mac osx snow leopard folder (png), layered a picture of a movie reel onto it (png) using the application Gimp, then saved this complete picture as a png. I then took this picture and dragged it into Icon Composer & from there saved the new icon as an icns file. Next, I selected this new icns file, copied it, went into the "Get Info" part for the folder I want, clicked on the little icon in the top left corner, and selected Paste in the Edit menu. The icon did change, but it changed to the generic Preview icon with the letters "icns" across the bottom. Why isn't it changing to the actual picture I made? And how can I fix this or make sure I do get the result I want?
FYI: I have done this EXACT SAME process with other icons I've created, and in the past it has worked fine and changed the icon to the picture that I made. But today it's done this twice, with two different pictures/icons and in different folders.Did you open the image in Preview? Then make sure you are actually selecting and copying the open image? You can check by going to Finder->Edit->Show Clipboard to see if the image is actually on the Clipboard. Now do GetInfo on the folder you want to have the image, select the wee little icon at the top (make sure it really is selected, the faint blue halo is hard to see) and then Paste. You MUST have permissions to write to the folder! Otherwise nothing will happen. Does the "Sharing and Permissions" section of the GetInfo window, down at the bottom, show your shortname as owner, with Read & Write permission?

How to Get the Fastest FiOS Speed
With all the great FiOS speeds that Verizon provides, you want to make sure you’re getting the fastest speed your plan allows. Here are some tips for doing just that:
If you’re on a PC, check out our FiOS Speed Optimizer (link to: http://my.verizon.com/micro/speedoptimizer/fios/default.aspx )- there you can test to see how fast of a FiOS connection you really have. It will also allow you to reconfigure your computer to get the best speeds possible. After you’ve run the Optimizer once, shut your PC down completely and re-run it after you booted back up again.
If you have a Mac, please check out Apple’s broadband tuner (link to: http://support.apple.com/downloads/Broadband_Tuner_1_0) to do the same thing.
Please remember that all FiOS speeds are best achieved while using a wired connection. Speeds will vary if you’re using a wireless connections.
If you’re still not getting the speed you think you should, please ensure that you have the proper gigabit network interface (NIC) card installed. You will need a connection of 10/100/1000 for FiOS speeds >99 Mbps downstream. Look here (link to:
http://www22.verizon.com/home/fios-fastest-internet/#equipment) to see how to find out what kind of NIC card you currently have.
If you need additional help, please create a post on the FiOS Internet board. You can also reach support agents on Twitter @VerizonSupport, on Click to Chat or on Facebook at our Fans of FiOS page.This seems to be nothing more than a huge lack of knowledge by some folks about LAN vs WAN network speeds.
Wireless LAN connections have absolutely NOTHING to do with FiOS connection speeds. Nothing at all. The wireless connections DOES impact the speed the connected computer can send/receive data to the LAN, but NOT how fast the router communicates with the WAN.
If someone has only a 12Mbps wireless connection to a computer, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with FiOS or Verizon - they simply do not know how to set up their wireless LAN.
We do need to acknowledge, however, that even the best, most perfect wireless LAN configurations will not come close to a gigabit wired LAN speed. High end routers are capable of 300 Mbps speeds on a single radio, and the current top FiOS MI424 rev I router is only capable of 130 Mbps wireless speed. But I want to reitterate, this is only the speed between the wireless device and the access point - NOT the WAN speed that FiOS is providing.
So if you simply want to know what actual speed you are getting from FiOS, you must measure it with a computer connected WIRED to the router with a gigabit NIC - and note carefully that last part - a wired connection doesn't mean squat if your computer only has a 10/100 NIC!!!!
And if your your normal LAN connection is always wireless, then make sure you are not paying for more WAN speed than your LAN access point can deliver to your wireless computer. -
I purchased three albums last week and only two of them were charged. How can I make sure that the third album gets charged in a timely fashion?
Well, thanks for feeling with me, patkosanke ... AND for your wise advice.
I did followed your advice immediately and erased all the service number as well as S/Ns.
Can you, however, give me any "direct number" through which I can get hold of someone and request for what you're suggesting?
I believe I had talked with the person by the name of "Charlie" (I think... I hope I'm correct...) when I was having the same problem with the last device. He was very kind and helpful, though I ended up getting the device that brought the same problem.
Charlie told me that if I had any more problems I should call him. But I forgot to take down his direct number.
Or maybe I should call the main office and ask for him. But my memory is questionable as to his name, and besides I don't even know his last name either. There could be more than one "Charlies" in Palm.
So, if you could somehow email me some direct number (other than the one that keeps on hooking me up with those people in the overseas who are answering the phone only to sympathize with & apologize to me but can only issue a false hope with the SRO#. More than once I was given the promise that the supervisor would call me back within an hour or two but I ended up calling back after I had been left hanging in the air all night long.) where I can talk to someone like I did with Charlie last time who can truly carry out the promise, I would truly appreciate it, patkosanke. ^^
Thanks

Running Time Machine for the first time, how that I make sure that some information I have in the external drive does not get erase in the prosess
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
Note: This is now your Library. It's not a Back Up, and you need another disk for backing up.

This is not a typical Windows 8 problem, I had the same problem with all my previous Acrobat versions on all previous Windows versions.
How can I make sure that when consulting pdf files via Windows explorer the pdf file is represented as a genuine miniature of the document content itself and noit just a document icon with Adobe logo?Hi Josialaers,
Turn the 'Preview Pane' ON and you should be able to see the content of the pdf when clicked.
When 'Show preview handlers in preview pane ON' is checked in 'Folder Options' of Windows Explorer.

I'm totally new to iphone/ipod. I need help with the following:
1) How do I get rid of a folder of photos that showed up on my daughter's ipod touch when she received some songs from her aunt's itunes? After she got some songs from that itunes a folder of pictures showed up with no delete option. Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?
2) Also, my daughter uses same itunes as myself, how do I make sure any pics I have on my iphone & icloud (itunes) don't show up on her ipod? I shut off my photostream so perhaps this is the solution. But I noticed that a message I sent from her ipod to my sister (an iphone user) later showed up on my iphone (as if I had sent it from my iphone)! That was really odd. I'd like to keep our itunes account together simply so I can monitor her downloads, etc so I don't want to open up her own itunes to avoid automatic syncing.
I only want to share music between our devices. I don't want her pics nor my pics to go to icloud/itunes.
Thank you!1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores. -
How do I make sure that my second-hand iPod is not a stolen product?
My husband recently recieved an iPod shuffle from a friend of his. His friend told him he could have it since the friend didn't have a computer to download songs from or charge the iPod with. He states that he thought the iPod already had songs pre-recorded on it, and even if he used someone else's computer to get the songs, it's too much trouble. My husband had lent him some money to pay a utility bill and he was using this iPod that he just happened to have laying around to pay my husband back. I don't trust my husband's friend. How can I make sure that he isn't trying to push a stolen iPod off onto my husband? We haven't used it yet. My husband doesn't have much use for the shuffle, but I would love it, if only I could find out whether it was stolen or not. I don't want to take it to the police and start a big fight or get his friend in trouble, but if it is stolen I want to know so I can send it back to Apple or who ever owns it.
Hi pyrausagi,
You sound like a very honest and sensible person, who is taking very reasonable precautions against becoming a second victim of theft. Others on these forums have been less cautious and have lost their recent purchases.
My suggestion would be to make sure the person offering the iPod shuffle is easily identifyable. Make sure he/she has a real address and you know what it is. Get a picture of the person and make sure they know you have it. If they are not above board I'm fairly sure they won't allow this.
There are a number of online databases of stolen merchandise. Look them up and check the serial number of the iPod against these databases.
Apple will not tell you if the item is stolen. Their phone agents that work with the public do not have that kind of information.
Note that doing all this will not guarantee you don't get a stolen iPod. Only purchasing one new (or refurbished) from Apple or an authorized reseller can do that. It does, however, give you a better chance.
Best of luck. Enjoy whatever iPod you get.
Maybe you are looking for
