How to partition MacbookPro running with installed OS 10.7 to also have OS 10.6 running in the partition
I can create a partition but cant't install OS 10.6 into it. I need it to run several applications that aren't supported by OS 10.7
The new MacBook Pros released last week came out with Lion. Some of the ones that were older may still be able to run Snow Leopard, with the directions below: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16247806#16247806
If your Mac shipped new prior to July 20, 2011 but after March 15, 2010, it doesn't need as complicated directions, and you just need the original installer discs that came with it. If you are missing these, call AppleCare.
Prior to March 15, 2010, the 10.6.3 retail Snow Leopard installer can be used.
Prior to August 28, 2009, but Core2Duo or Core i processor any Snow Leopard retail can be used.
CoreDuo and CoreSolo can't have Lion installed.
How much RAM do you have, and how old is the machine?

I have like five GB's of ghost data (data the device claims is not there but it is still taking up space) on my I pad 2 from a failed movie download attempt. How do I fix that with out resting my iPad? I have only 1GB left of storage
The movie had gotten to the point that I could watch it all the way through but it still said processing and got stuck at that point and when I turned off the wifi to try to restart it, it deleted its-self but did not free up any of the storage It was taking up
Restarting my iPad does not help
Some thing similar also happened to my old laptop when trying to download the iOS 5 update to my laptop when it came out. It kept getting disconnected and every time it would try to start over and act like what had already been downloaded was not there though it was still taking up the storage space.
And it continued repeating until it took up all of my storage space. The data file would not show up anywhere so I had to restore my laptop to the factory settings and that worked for awhile but I eventually had to get a new laptop.Did you try to set it up as new device, as explained in this article?
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If this does not work, use iTunes to set it back to factory settings, which would also install the latest software:

I just installed PSE 13. I also have PSE 10 with all my Albums Organized. How do I transfer my PSE 10 Albums to PSE 13?

I take it that you have installed PSE13 on the same computer. Did you notice the dialog prompting you to 'convert' the previous catalog? If you have agreed, the old catalog (containing the albums definitions) has been converted to the PSE13 format, and you get your old albums from that catalog. If you have not agreed, it's still time to do so. Open the catalog manager in PSE13; then click on the 'convert' button. Select the old catalog from the list and convert. -
How to Create a Bootable Flash Drive to do a clean install of Lion. I have tried to use the InstallESD.dmg but it still will not do a clean install so that I do not have to do a reinstall from the Recovery (That just re downloads and takes over 6 hours)?
The system I'm have is a Mac-mini that had SL on it and no SuperDrive. I have also call Apple Support and they have really have not been to much help over 1st did my up grade to Lion and Installed the Lion Server.... it lost my SSL that I paid for and kill almost on of my server setting, plus kill all my web servers (using apache vhosts), and not to say the LDAP will even let remote users login to your laptops.
PS: There is no way that I'm going to buy a Install USB from Apple... They have over billed me over $300.00 because the Apps Store still has bugs (Glad I did not write that App/Service)
If there is anyone that can give in the information to create a USB install stick, I would be very thinkful.Here you are bro, courtesy of "softpedia.com"....brilliant site!!!
If you ever had problems with your Mac OS X installation you know that the first thing you should do is to check the startup volume using Disk Utility.
After the check has ended and, if the errors exceed a certain level of seriousness, the Disk Utility application will require you to restart your Mac and use its Mac OS X Install disc counterpart.
Other users may have to reinstall OS X altogether, but will find, or already know, that their SuperDrive (a CD/DVD reader and write combo drive) is not functioning properly and it will not be able to read the Install disc.
Although this might happen to Mac OS X Leopard users due to faultyhardware, the vast majority of problematic SuperDrives will be encountered inside Snow Leopard running Macs.
This is due to the updated SuperDrive firmware included in either the Install disc or the software updates one has to install to reach the latest version of OS X, namely 10.6.6.
This can be fixed by flashing the SuperDrive’s stock firmware using free command line tools that one can find for free online (I will write about this process also, but at a later time because this article only focuses on allowing you to create your own alternative USB boot disc).
If you are reading this last bit of information with skepticism, than you should know that it happened to me too. Despite all my tries to make it work properly, the SuperDrive kept on munching any inserted DVDs and just popped them out in about twenty seconds.
The workaround to this issue was to create my own Leopard bootable USB memory stick. I am not suggesting a Snow Leopard bootable stick mainly because there are lots of users that have decided to buy the cheaper, Upgrade version, which I have not tested and, therefore, I’m not sure if it will work properly once written to a USB disk.
And now, here are the exact steps you should follow in order to obtain a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) Install disc.
Step 1 (If you already have the Leopard install disc DMG file you can skip to Step 2)
Launch Disk Utility (you can find it inside /Applications/Utilities). Here select the Leopard Install disc in the list of drives on the left and click on the New Image menu entry at the top of the window. A save message will appear where you will have to select the Desktop as a destination.
Step 2
After Disk Utility has finished creating the Leopard DMG, insert your USB stick and erase all data and reformat the disk. To do this select the USB in the list of drives on the left and, after clicking on the Erase tab on the right side of the window, choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format and click the Erase button beneath.
Step 3
After the USB has been reformatted, download the SuperDuper app from HERE and launch it. Once SuperDuper starts, you will only have to select the DMG in the Copy drop-down menu, your USB memory stick on the right and hit the “Copy Now” button.
One can also use Disk Utility for this task but creating a bootable USB stick failed 2 out 4 times when copying the DMG to the stick (with the exact same settings each time). Creating the bootable stick using SuperDuper proved to be the perfect way to do it because it worked each of the 4 times I tested it.
The steps above can also be used to create a bootable Mac OS X Lion USB by using the InstallESD.dmg image you can find inside the Lion installer (named “Install Mac OS X Lion.app”) downloaded from the Mac App Store in the /Applications folder.
To locate the InstallESD.dmg right click the Lion installer, select the “Show Package Contents” entry, go inside the “Contents” folder, and from there into the “SharedSupport” folder. Inside this folder you can find the InstallESD.dmg you can use to create your own bootable Mac OS X Lion USB stick. To do so, go to the third step described above and use the InstallESD.dmg as the DMG to be copied to your USB disc.
That’s it! Once the process ends you will have a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) USB disk that you can use as an alternative to the Apple’s DVD Install disc that comes bundled with all Macs.
To use your newly created bootable disk you will have to restart the Mac, press and hold the OPTION key until the StartupManager appears. Here, select the Mac OS X Install disk using your keyboard arrows and press return to start from the selected drive. -
CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!
Hi Kglad.
I have looked at all of my settings both in Bridge and CS6 Photoshop regarding Camera Raw. I am at a loss how to set the crop tool in cm or inches as I once did - now the only option is to crop using ratios of 1:1 etc etc - This is infuriating as lots of my square crops I could set at 10" x 10'' specifically to print one to one to fit frame and mount size -
Now if cropping using bloody aspect ratio of 1:1 (square) the actual dims of the crop are roughly 4.25 inches x 4.25 inches. this means I then have to open the whole image in photoshop in order to crop at the dims I have set! It was so much quicker in terms of batch cropping in camera raw being able to set dims in centimetres and inches but they have gone and mucked around with it, with the new bloody update! Unless you are an absolute genius and know how I can go back to having an option of CM, Inches and aspect ratio within the custom crop settings? (Please say you do)
here is the new tutorial for CC - my guess is they have scrapped the control we had over the custom crop settings

How does iOS 7 run on the iPhone 4S?
Hi,
I have an iPhone 4S (64GB) running 5.1.1 and would like to know how iOS 7 actually runs on the 4S. I have read so many conflicting reports about iOS 7 on the 4S that I do not know who to believe anymore. I never updated to iOS 6 because of the much published “WiFi greyed out” issue that haunts the 4S. From what I read, this is ongoing with iOS 7 with no fix in sight as it's hardware issue as a result of shoddy build quality.
My only previous update experience (from one version of iOS to another) is with a 3rd generation iPod Touch which after the update to iOS4 (which broke the video app) and then iOS5 (which at least fixed the video app) is only good for playing music. It so laggy that doing anything else with it is basically impossible.
The iPhone 4S was designed for iOS 5 and not iOS 7. Is the iPhone 4S’s processor up to the task of running iOS 7 without any glitches and lagging? I'd rather stay on 5.1.1 than having my user experience tanked by a phone that it not quite capable of running the new version of iOS problem free. I am not one of those people that MUST have the latest version of iOS not matter what. My phone working reliably (and having WiFi & Bluetooth connectivity) is much more important than a flashy (some would say ugly) new iOS. The only reason I am considering upgrading is for the new call/sms blocking feature. I know Apple says that they are compatible, but they also said that iOS4 & iOS5 will run on a 3rd generation iPod Touch and it just does not....
Any comments and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
TylerHi Tyler
is the other 4S user frequently cleaning the tasks that run in the background?
- if not: double push the home button and swipe away the unused 'running"-Apps.
(this is also new: it used to be push and hold - then press the X. Now simply swipe them away)
I also have an iPad 1st Gen with iOS5 and find it very helpful to restart it once in a while. This also helps to increase the performance and reduces crashes.
Ok, I have to admit that my 4S also froze in the past, but maximum once in a month or two. Usually this happened when I tried to do to many things at the same time.
However what I experienced, that the camera App crashed more often when trying to shoot multiple HDR pictures. I believe it is due to the computing, which has to be done by the phone, since HDR means, shooting 3 Pictures and merging them.
My Battery is, as the phone 2 years old and last about a day in business use. I turn off wifi and BT when I don't need it, further reduce the display brightness. This increased my battery life significantly.
Observation with WhatsApp: sometimes I need to close and reboot it (in the task manager), but I related this issue rather to the App than the iOS.
Good luck -
How to connect my Macbook with an ipad mini in order to have an access to the internet on my iPad?
Dear fellows, I am having a trouble in how to connect my mac with an iPad mini in order to have an access to the internet.

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.
Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

I bought a used iPhone on ebay. when I try to activate it, I get a message that the owner needs to sign in to the device with their appleID and password. I have no way of knowing who the owner is. How can I get around this?
Check the eBay listing. Did it state the device was Activation Locked? If not, then make a claim as Meg stated and get a refund. You will not be able to activate the phone and no one can help you contact the owner, unless that is the person that sold the device. If they cannot remove the phone from their account because it is not theirs, then refund is your route. Even Apple cannot assist with locating the previous owner.

I have an ipod that is synced with an old PC, and now I have a Mac and I want the ipod to sync the photos on it with the Itunes on my Mac, but it says it was synced with another ipod. How can I accomplish this?
Is it the same user/iTunes account or...?
Syncing to a new computer should give you the opportunity to replace the exisiting contents with the new. -
Both my iPod and my MacBookPro connect with my home Wi-Fi but my iPad will not even after entering the passcode. I have tried Full shutdown and tried other Wi-Fi's for which I had the correct passcode. My iPad would not connect. Any suggestions?
Hi! I am having the same problem. What's odd is that a few days ago- the ipad was connecting to the network fine. No changes made. Other devices can connect to this network. I have also been able to connect my ipad to other networks.
I have reset all network settings, reset my ipad, reset the router, hard stop reboot, turn on/off wifi connection. what's interesting is that when i click the arrow next to the network i am trying to log onto- the ip address, router, and dns numbers come up automatically and the router number does not fill in (also- this process takes a long time- at least 5 minutes).
any thoughts? -

I have a Yamaha FC7 foot pedal and am trying to use it as a whammy bar type controller. Can I do this with anything in Mainstage? I also have Line 6 Pod farm 2 - anything in there?
The foot pedal also seems to have an on/off switch that activates when it's depressed all the way. How do I set that up in Mainstage? Can I cycle between and effect and a volume pedal, for example?
Mainstage version is 2.1.3
Thanks for all help given.Hi

You can use a keyboard or other controller (with jack like sustain) and then assign controller (normally 64) to what you want Mainstage to do.
This is unlikely to work if you plug an "Expression Pedal" such as an FC7 into a "Sustain Pedal" socket using MIDI CC64, which usually operates as a switch rather than a continuously variable value.
If I understood the OP's request correctly, the OP wanted to use the FC7 as a "Whammy Pedal", which does a PitchBend 'dive' effect (amongst other things)
