How do move what is on my startup memory over to the other memory modules?

I installed extra memory into my Mac. I have used up all of the start up memory (per the notice that comes up every time memory is tried to be accessed). How do move what is on my startup memory over to the other memory modules?

Activity Monitor's window shows the RAM being used; it does not show how much of your hard drive is being used. Here is how you find out how much of your hard drive is being used:
control click on your hard drive icon and you will get a Get Info window like this:
On my MBP, the hard drive is 239 GB of which 59 GB are used and 179 GB are available.
Please post your hard drive get info screenshot.

How to move new app to my iPhone without erasing all the others

Hi, I bought a new app for my iPhone while in iTunes on my computer, assuming I could move it to my iPhone. Now it seems that the only way I can get it onto the iPhone is to sync it, but I'm getting the warning that if I sync, it will remove all my other apps, which I bought directly from the phone. I don't want to lose all those apps. I tried just sliding the app over. How can I get the app onto my iPhone while leaving the other apps as they are?

OK, thanks. I really didn't know that. However, I have solved the problem of how to get the app I just purchased onto my iPhone. It turns out that when you go to buy it again, on the iPhone, you get a message saying you have already purchased that item, and asking if you want to download it again. So, I am able to get that app on my iPhone without purchasing it again. Now I will go through the apps I got from my daughter and see if I want them and when I get that figured out, I will sync, which will erase the ones she gave me, and then I'll purchase the ones I really want. Thanks for your help.

HI,
Are you trying moving the file from Elements Organizer?
If yes, select the file, go to File menu and select Move. There you can choose the location where you want to move the files.
Please let me know if it is not what you are looking for.
Thanks!!

How do I make one account's home folder visible to the other?

How do I make one account's home folder visible to the other? Also, when I begin to delete an account, it asks if I want to either delete its home folder, keep it in the users folder, or save it in a disk image. I want to be able to see it from my remaining account once I delete it, so if I leave it in the users folder, would I be able to see all the files (right now I can't

Use terminal to add ACL to the account,
at the prompt:
sudo chmod -R +a "<user> allow list,addfile,search,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextattr, writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit" /User/<user_name> #yep, all that goes on one line!#
#Replace <user> with the user name that you want to have file/folder privileges#
#Replace <user_name> with the account you want to process#
example:
sudo chmod -R +a "sue allow list,add_file, .... deletechild,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit
/User/joe
#sue now gets full access to joe's files and folders#
to remove:
sudo chmod -R -a "sue allow list,add_file, .... deletechild,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit
/User/joe
You can add as many users as you want! Just lather, rinse repeat. That is how I share my itunes
directory with the ones I want to share it with.
That's the simplest way. ACL permissions overrule posix permissions.

How do I combine all my calendars into one and delete the others?

Your old account is the one you migrated, but it has been renamed because the new account had the same name. "Fixing" this is a bit complicated. It is possible to transfer data from one account to the other. See Transferring files from one User Account to another.
A cleaner solution is to do this:
Create a temporary new admin user account with a completely different username.
Log into this new account.
Delete the new account you created before migrating.
Delete the old account you migrated that has the changed name.
Re-migrate your old account from the Mini.
Log into the newly migrated account and delete the temporary account.
And, the simplest solution is to use the migrated account as-is and delete the account you originally made on the new computer.

No one here can answer the question (if or when that might happen). We are users here and do not speak for Apple. In fact, it violates the TOU to speculate about future Apple plans.

Any ideas?

How to move from a "recovered data external hard drive" to the new Computer?

Computer 1's hard drive crash and all programs and data were recovered professionally and sent to me on an External Hard Drive. Computer 1 was on Windows 7. I can fun the program off of the External Hard drive fine, when connected to my my new Computer. I click on the .exe file and it pulls up the catalogue as it should. All off of the recovery drive.
The new Computer, is on Windows 8.1. How do I get the Adobe Catalogues moved/copied to the new Computer?
I redownload Adobe 10 onto my new 8.1 Computer from the Adobe website. Using the new download, I was able to open the Catalogue on the External Drive (F). Cannot find a way to "relocate" the Catalogue to the new computer. The pictures have already been copied to the new computer.
Please help!!!!! Desperate not to lose the organization (tagging/dating) etc in 30,000 pictures+.
Kay

Before we can give a solution, we need more information and we must be clear about the details of the recovery.
From your post, I assume that the external drive contains a copy of your picture files, with probably exactly the same folder path. I think that that path is identical in Win7 and Win8 (it was not in XP).
You have reinstalled Photoshop Elements 10 in your new computer.
So the main point is : what about your old catalogs ? It's quite possible that the professional recovery has also made a copy of those.
You'll have to search the external drive for one or several folders containing a 'catalog.pse10db' file.
If you find one or several, select the newest in date (or the biggest), the folder containing it is the catalog you are looking for.
If you don't find one, be sure that the explorer is set to show hidden files. Without catalogs, you can't restore your organization
Now, when you have found the catalog (the folder), you can do this test. With PSE and Organizer closed, double click on the 'catalog.pse10db' file. That should open the organizer with the catalog. Since the files are not in the same location as before, all links in the catalog will be wrong : different drive identification and perhaps different folder structure. That test should show you the thumbnails (the catalog cache in the folder should have been recovered; if not it's not that important, the thumbnails cache will be recreated automatically).
Now, how to 'reconnect' all files, that depends on what you want to do: keep them in the external drive or copy them back to the main internal drive. The problem will be either to update the catalog database to point to the new location or to recreate the same drive identification as before : letter and drive serial number, exactly same folder tree. We can discuss those options when you have made the first test.
If that goes well, don't worry about the location of the catalog : you can move it either from the catalog manager or manually.

TS1969 What if I want iTunes to run from the other user's account, but I want to work in my account for a while, without interupting what is playing? When I switch to my account, how can I STOP iTunes FROM TRYING TO OPEN on my side?

We like listening to music playing from wife's user account.
I want to do some work from my account.
I don't want iTunes to open on my user account.
It keeps trying to, giving me the alert beep and the "Cannot Open iTunes" alert.
How do I make it stop trying to automatically open on one account when it is already playing on the other account?
Again, I want to keep listening to what is playing through my wife's account, therefore I don't want it to open or try to open on my account.
Thanks for any guidance.

Thanks. I messed up with my husbands iphone because I was told the wrong thing. Now everytime I sync his phone it makes it look just like the other phone I had. Do you know how I can fix taht for his phone? Any settings I can turn off that will prevent all of my apps/contacts, etc from auto populating his phone?

How to see what processes are using my memory?

I recently added more RAM to my system and I always keep Activity Monitor running with the memory usage icon on the Dock to see how much Lion and my programs use.
I noticed that even several CS5 programs running at the same time won't use that much, the program I've seen uses the most is Aperture, using anywhere from 500MB on start to 2.5GB while viewing--not editing--photos.
My questions is, when my system is running normally it uses from a quarter to half the total memory available but just now it's using more than three quarters and it's running not even half programs I use everyday. I quickly added up the memory being used and it's just missing out A LOT. I'm adding a screenshot of Activity Monitor for you to see.
I now that restarting the system (or by using the purge command in Terminal) will free up memory but this really puzzles me and I'd really like to know what's happening--BTW, even though several GB are missing, the computer is nowhere nears slow, at least.
Where are all the other processes using the rest of the memory?
I'm using OS X 10.7.3 Server with 16GB of RAM on an iMac.
Thanks for all your help,
Gustavo.

You will never be able to get those numbers to add up. This topic has come up before. Examples:
Memory used by unknown processes
Where is my memory?
And others. You cannot use the numbers in that display to add up. Even doing top in terminal produces conflicting numbers. Many process are dynamic and may be missed in these displays.
FWIW, here's an apple article on the Activity Monitor memory display:
Using Activity Monitor to read System Memory and determine how much RAM is being used
Editorial: In my opinion I do not recommend always running Activity Monitor (or top). The constant poling and display does have some affect on performance and cpu utilization. That's why it always usually appears near the top of the process list when sorted by percent cpu unless really outweighed by something much bigger.

How can I merge two iTunes folder, one with music and the other without?

Two years ago Apple support suggested moving my iTunes folder out of my Home folder to the HD level in order to share it across users. This is no longer necessary. How do I move my music back to my Home folder since now I have an Itunes folder at the HD level (along with application, library, system, users folders) and an Itunes folder under Music in my Home folder. For example both those itunes folders have a mobile application, album artwork, and previous itunes library subfolder as well as itunes library extras.itdb and itunes library genius.itdb. How do I merge them or which ones do I delete? The files in the mobile app folder in my Home folder have a newer "last modified" date. Currenty under Itunes-->Preferences-->Advanced, it says Itunes media location is /itunes/itunes media/ music. I assumes that is the HD level folder. What happens if I hit reset?
I am using Itunes 10.6.3.
Any help tailored to a novice would be great. Thanks.

Thanks for the links, Limnos.
If you are willing to continue helping, here's what I found.
Just to clarify the two iTunes folders I am refering to are:
username-->Music-->iTunes
HD-->iTunes
I am presuming each location has a full set of files as outlined in the above links?
Not all the files are in both locations. Most are.
- The Itunes folder in my home folder does not have itunes library.xml.
- The Itunes folder in my home folder has a subfolder called Mobile Applications (username-->Music-->iTunes--> Mobile application). The Itunes folder at the HD level also has a Mobile Application folder but it is a subfolder of Itunes Media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media-->Mobile applications) and has no files in it.
- I do not have an iTunes Media in the iTunes folder in my home folder.
- also the Itunes media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media) has subfolders by type (books, movies, itunes u, music etc...) but the iTunes Media-->Music also has some of the same subfolders ( iTunes Media-->Music-->books, iTunes Media-->Music-->Movies, iTunes Media-->Music-->iTunes U). Is this normal repetition?
You say:
/itunes/itunes media/ music
but it is important to note what comes before all that.
There is nothing as far as I can tell before that first forward slash. Since the only iTunes Media folder I have is in the iTunes folder that resides at the HD level (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media folder) not the iTunes folder in my home folder (username-->Music-->iTunes) , I assume that's the one that holds the music.
Keep iTunes media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library are both checked on
Does that give more clarity into my problem?
