    This is not necessarily 100% correct at the current time.
    As Dropbox is encouraging people to set it up for automatic uploading of photos they gradually increment your space as you load more pictures for free at the current time.
    You do start with a fixed 2 GB but if you upload photos you will be awarded more free space.
    You can also open a free account with Flickr - you may have some upload limits per day but you can upload pictures there.

  • How can I transfer photos from my Mac Book Pro to my windows computer?

    How can I transfer photos from my Mac Book Pro to my windows computer.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Transfer them to an external disk formatted in "MS-DOS (FAT)" with Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html
    If you have the pictures in iPhoto, choose them with the Command key, go to File menu (on the menu bar) > Export, and copy them to the external disk. Then, connect your external disk to the PC and move them.
    If you have the pictures in Finder, steps are the same, but in this case, you will have to drag the pictures you chose to the external disk that you can find in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices"

  • How can I delete files from My Mac Book Pro safely to create more space?

    Hi,
    I need to delete files from my Mac Book Pro and I am not sure how to do it safely without affecting my computers drivers or operations.
    In my Finder - All Files Section there are certain files in the Preview, marked as "PNG Image", Window Image, GIF image, XLM. when I look at them they seem scripted or sections of an image. How do I know which files are safe to remove
    I seem to find a lot of duplicated files - is there a way of stopping this from happening?
    Thanks from a little frustrated Mac Book user.

  • How do I remove a virus from my mac book pro?

    I think I have virus on my mac book pro. When I google Bank of America, it took me to the BofA results, I clidked on the link I normally use, typed in my password, and it took me to another google search page. I tried this several times, thinking maybe I clicked on the wrong link, which I knew I didn't, but just in case, and it keeps taking me to a google search page (not the normal google search engine page). How do I check for a virus and if one, remove it?
    Thanks for your help!

    First thing you should do is call BofA and suspend your online account and/or change your password.
    The correct IP address for BofA is
    171.161.148.173
    If you paste this into your browser URL field (where it says "apple.com http//discussions.apple.com.... now) you will go directly to the BofA site, no poison in between from a lot of possible issues.
    1: Google poisoned
    2: DNS poisoned
    3: Router DNS poisoned.
    I doubt very much it's your Mac, not that I've playing favorite, it's because Mac's are very highly secure.
    Once you have gone to the correct site by entering the IP address into your URL field and pressing enter, bookmark it and use that from now on.
    Also you should see a HTTPS in the URL when you log in, that means you have a secure connection.

  • How to import itunes library from a mac book pro to a new mac air?

    How do I go about accessing my itunes library from a new mac air?
    CD's and downloads were originally used to create my library on a mac book pro. Can I now access this on my new mac air?

    If there is space on the Air, you can use Migration Assistant to transfer the data. (Go into Applications/Utilities, and run Migration Assistant from there - it will tell you what options you have for data transfer). If you wish to keep both laptops, you might look at using iTunes Match, which will make all your music available on the Air but not necessarily download it.

  • How do i uninstall software from my mac book pro

    I installed canon software on  my mac, I would like to uninstall, it will not drag to trash can

    Best way to uninstall programs or apps
    The best way is to contact the developers site for uninstall instructions, especially if the software required you to enter your Admin password to install.
    It might have placed "hooks" into the OS X kernel called kext files that load when OS X boots up or in other locations that require a uninstaller to use root level power to uninstall correctly.
    If one simply only drags the application icon they see in their Applications or Utilities folder to the Trash, what happens is these leftover parts in OS X itself don't get updated for compatibility with later OS X updates and/or might cause a security or stability issue later on which the machine will boot to a "Gray Screen Issue" and remain stuck.
    Self contained programs/apps
    If the developer then says it's perfectly fine to drag the application icon located in the Applications or Applications > Utilities folder to the Trash, then you can do that. These types of programs are what we call "self contained" meaning everything it pretty much requires is inside the Application icon which is really a hidden folder called a "package".
    Since "self contained" programs or apps can be run from just about anywhere they are placed, like in User Account folders so only that User can run them, however for global use amongst all User Accounts on the machine and in most cases of installers, they are stored in the Applications and/or Applications > Utilities folder.
    Keep your Downloads folder clear
    It is not advised to keep downloaded programs in the Downloads folder, rather to keep this clear at all times except during a known active download as to be wary of bad websites that will cause a "driveby download" hoping one will click or run to infect their machine. The Downloads folder is not a storage place, rather if you wish to keep a installer, place it someplace else in your User folders, like creating a folder called "Installers" or "Downloaded PDFs" and keeping them in your Utilities or Documents folders in your Home directory.
    Concerning appdelete/appremoval type software
    It is not advised to use "appdelete" type programs for the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of programs/apps and developers changing them all the time, thus it's almost impossible to keep up with all the changes. So as a result many of these appdelete type programs rely upon using a search feature and hoping the developer tagged their files with a name to locate files, which is not always the case. Accidents occur as users of these type programs delete other files or not get all parts installed by the developer.
    Many developers use other developers software, like Pace for copy protection or Soundflower for a audio driver, when they install their software, thus the appdelete type software misses these files installed in the OS X kernel which then later get outdated or have security issues that are not fixed as the parent program is missing that does the updates.
    The Dock
    The Dock doesn't contain real programs, those are what's called "Aliases" or Windows users would know as "Shortcuts" which direct to the actual program, file or folders located elsewhere. To show the location of the real item in the Dock, right click and select Open > Show in Finder. The item there is the real thing, that's what is dragged to the Trash to delete (then Finder > Empty Trash to permanently delete it). 
    To delete the icon off the Dock, merely drag it's icon off onto the Desktop area and release, it does a puffy smoke thing and disappears.
    To place a mistakenly deleted Alias off the Dock back on, locate it by clicking on the Smiley  Face in the Dock to open a new Finder window, then navigate to it's actual location and drag it's original item into the Dock until it makes room and release. If you accidentally drop the icon on the Desktop, place it back in it's original location first, then attempt the Dock again.

  • How to recover lost photos from my mac book pro

    I had photos saved on my harddrvie under Pictures folder.
    I think they were deleted by mistake and i don't know when but sure more than two months if that matters.

    Any operating system has some file and system backup mechanism
    And Yu job s to buy and keep two or more backup sets, especially when business or there are involved

    Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan and Virus Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip.
    To check for the trojan: Anti Flashback Trojan 2.0.4.
    A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. Or the preferred method is to use Apple's protection tool: Flashback Malware Removal Tool 1.0.
    Or, open Software Update. If you do not have the Apple protection software installed it will download and install it via Software Update. If no update appears that means you either already have it installed or it isn't needed for your system. The software is only available for Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion versions of OS X.
    Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
    For general anti-virus protection I only recommend using ClamXav.
