How do you permanently (as long as possible) delete maleware pop ups on your safari-- that i know will eventually spread and attack my various computer files?? HELP HELP HELP! i haven't found a good enough solution!!

-1 Delete MALEWARE SOFTWARE through a safe apple or apple advertised rescue program
- 2 MONITOR/REJECT POP UPS on safari/google chrome
- 3 Have CONTROL OVER ADVERTISING YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE- through using filter systems in a new anti pop up software too?
- 4 DOES A PROGRAM EXIST THAT DOES ANTI POP UP ADVERTISING AND MALEWARE FIGHTING??
- 5 I ABSOLUTELY HATE OF THIS HACKING! RUINS MY BELIEF IN APPLE, SAFARI AND INTERNET SAFTEY!! HELP!

The old rule of thumb was to keep 10-12 GB free. Any lower than that and you will start to have trouble. I was very close to that for a long time and never had any complaints. Now, Lion "encourages" 20% free space (on my newer 250 GB drive) so I try to keep it with more than 50 GB free.
Do you still have the original memory in that machine too? The metal plate you have to remove in the battery compartment also provides access to the RAM. Your machine will take 2 GB of RAM, possibly 3. You definitely want to max that out too.
Regardless, you definitely need a new hard drive. When Apple switched to PC components, they had to take a quality hit. These 2.5" notebook hard drives are not very reliable. I'm surprised your hard drive hasn't died by now. I usually get a new hard drive with every major OS upgrade. A $ 50 investment every couple of years is no big deal.
Unfortunately, you (and I) suffer from being an early adopter in 2006. Those 32-bit machines only accept 2 GB RAM (maybe 3) and are only 32-bit so they can't be upgraded to Lion. Because of this limitation, you won't see as dramatic an improvement as you would with a 2007 machine. If you run more than a couple of applications, your hard drive is always going to have to be doing some VM work. My 2006 machine has even lost its bluetooth. I gave it to my brother. My very similar 2007 Macbook is still running great.
So, you must get a new hard drive because your old one is likely on death's door. If you don't have at least 2 GB - get it. If you can't afford a new machine, you might want to consider an SSD. That might help mitigate your RAM limitations. You can spend from $ 100 to $ 350 and get a dramatic speed improvement.

  • How do you create a login page using dashcode for the iPhone's mobile safari that will transfer you to the next page?

         Hey I have created a login page in Dashcode for a mobile safari app (aka iphone web app) and I am having trouble since I can not find any useful info about multiple pages. I don't want to use a stack layout view because it is only a login page and I need to check with a database to make sure the user's login info is correct. Right now I have it set up so that it loads another iphone web app project once it validates the info.
         The only problem with this is I am having a good bit of trouble trying to pass values from my php code to javascript or html. For some reason calling the javascript inside the php code makes the actual code inside the app not be called and same with the echo statment for the html.
    So I would like to be able to create the app in this way:
    Login page > PHP > MS SQL > PHP > UNKNOWN (if I can't get the javascript or html to output both) > Secure info on the next page
         I believe It would be a lot easier if I had the option for a multiple page but instead I am having to load up an entirely new dashcode project. If anyone knows a better way please let me know. Or if anyone knows a link to good information on passing values from php to javascript, because I couldn't get any of the code I tried to work, I would really appreciate it.

    Addendum to previous reply:
    OK.  This is weird--but I should be used to that, and just grateful that it seems to work (for now).
    What I had done is FTPd some image files to my site using Filezilla, but when I had tried to access them, I was unsuccessful.  I am almost sure that I used the same url (and variations of it) as you suggested, namely,  http://mysite.verizon.net/username/filename , and it either did not work, or gave me the "Page under construction", or, in some cases asked me for my username and password.
    But, when I did it this time, it worked.  So I probably had something off, but I can now do what I want.
    By the way, if you'll permit another question, while on the site-builder site, it said that there was a "Web Photo Manager", and said that "To download the Web Photo Manager: Open the Site Builder application and go to the All My Sites page. Click on the Web Photo Manager link (listed under Advanced Building Tools )."  I can't find it--would you happen to know where it is?
    In any case, thanks a lot for all your help--it solved my problem. 

  • Is it possible to get back all of your pictures that was on Lightroom after uninstalling and re-installing the software?

    I recently had to get my Mac completely rebooted by having the OS reinstalled and the hard drive replaced, due to a conflict with Adobe and my Mac. I had to uninstall and reinstall all my softwares, including Photoshop and Lightroom. They didn't mention anything about losing all your files. And now, I am left with nothing on my lightroom; all the files I had were very important. I thought well since it is an app, there must be a way to restore all my files. Is there??
    Thanks,
    Luc

    All of the files that you were working on and managing in Lightroom were not actually "in" Lightroom. Your files are stored in folders on your computer. Lightroom simply points to those files and displays them. Reinstalling Lightroom would not have any impact on your image files unless the hard drive(s) were reformatted in the process. Lightroom uses a catalog which is a database to keep track of where your images are located. It also stores all of the adjustments made to your images. If you backed up that catalog before reinstalling your software, and if you still have all of your images, then you should be able to open that catalog that you used previously and have all of your work still in place. If you don't have the catalog then I'm afraid you will just have to start over. Whether or not you still have your image files isn't clear.

  • How do you make one long track into multiple tracks?

    How do you make one long track in itunes into multiple tracks? Is there a way to do that?

    I found another solution too through Garageband. I don't know if it was easier, but I liked this way of creating seperate tracks.
    First, You put the long track into Garageband.
    -then you create a New Basic Track under Track Tab-create as many of those as tracks you want to make
    -also make sure the headphones button is lit up under each New Basic Track-this allows it to be a 'solo' track.
    -then you can start cutting music-with the long strip find where you want to split into a new track and drag that half down into each New Basic Track.
    -Once you are done, press Option Z and a purple little triangle will appear up by the measures. drag the triangle to the end of the first track-this allows it when sharing to itunes to just record the particular track you want, it puts a stop/end to that track.
    -then, make sure the track you want to share is highlighted the bright orange and go to share, 'send to itunes'
    -it will send that to itunes and you can rename it in itunes.
    -Go back to Garageband-delete the first track you successfully shared and move the next one up to where that one was. Slide it accross to the left so it is at the beginning, press option Z and move the purple triangle where you want it to be...and you are good to repeat until all your tracks are done!
    I am a very visual person, and this helped to see where I was cutting each track, just another way!

    how do you permanently delete apps from all your mac products (MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone)

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

  • How do you permanently delete a file image in the catalogue

    how do you permanently delete a file image in the ?

    Highlight the image, press the delete key, in the dialog that appears click the button that says, "Delete from disk."
    If you want to delete multiple images you can go through your images and when one is highlighted that you want to delete press the X key. That will mark the image for deletion. After you have gone through the images on Windows you can press Ctrl/backspace to display the same dialogue I described above. And you can choose to remove the marked images from the catalog or to delete them from your disk.

  • HT5824 How can you permanently delete books from Ibooks

    How can you permanently delete books from IBooks?

    You cant permanently delete them, but you can hide them.
    Pop into iTunes, and in the iTunes Store under Quick Links along the right hand side, you can see Purchases, and then sign in, look at your books and click on the X in the top left and it will hide them so you dont have to see them.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you get Photos to recognize the "old" iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

    How do you get Photos to recognize the “old” iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

    Launch Photos while holding down the alt/options key.
    This will show the Library Chooser panel. Select the library on the external drive. Photos will create a Photos Library on the same drive.
    Photos may not be able to open the library, however, if your external drive has an incompatible file system. It needs to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled) and locally mounted, not a remotely mounted volume, as described here:  Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture
