HT201317 The pictures in my photostream folder on my computer are being deleted when the pictures are deleted from photostream on individual devices. The photos on the computer were supposed to be permanent. Can I stop photostream from deleting from my
The original photstream instructions, and the current photostream information page on the apple website, say that photos on your pc or mac computer that have been synced by photostream are permanent but the latest updatge seems to have changed that so when items are deleted from any device they are deleted from all devices, including images that have gotten older and have rolled out of photostream on my iphone. I trusted photostream to save these images on my computer and now they appear to be gone. Can I turn off the option of deleting photostream images from my computer or do I need to copy these images to another folder to save them from being deleted when they are deleted from the device.

ok so i can't figure this out because i keep being told different things by everybody.
so say I take a picture with my phone. that picture is now located in my camera roll and uploads to my iclouds photostream, which I can then view on my computer. now my question is this: is the photos in my stream, on my comp permanent, allowing me to then delete them from my phones camera roll?
No
Photostream keeps them for 30 days.

Under the older iOS, when you opened a blank Safari page, Bookmarks automatically opened. However, with the newer iOS, this does not happen anymore. What iPhone and version of iOS do you have?

I spent ages renaming and sorting my holiday photos in correct order but when uploaded to print they reverted to the original name and order? How can I stop this happening?
When you "rename" a photo in iPhoto you're adding a Title to the shot, not renaming the file. This si quite standard metadata in photography, but it appars that it's getting lost in the upload/at Snapfish process.
You can use the Titles as filenames if you export using the File -> Export command. It's one of the options in the export dialogue. You can upload the exported items.

When holding down the 'command' key for a few seconds, the Universal Access panel appears. How can I stop this?
It is a panel that pops up and the heading on the panel is 'Universal Access', it is actually just an image of a panel, you can't access it. I have checked keyboard shortcuts and none of them are assigned to the command key only

I synced my phone to my computer. When updated with iOS7.0.2 I lost all my contacts, photos and music. I lost everything? How can i get them back? Is there any backup?
Everything should be on your computer.
You should be syncing contacts and calendars with your comptuer regularly.
You should be transferring all itunes purchases to your computer regularly.
You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly.
Most especially before any update.

I have 2 hotmail accounts in my Mac Mail, when I send from one account the reply comes back to the other hotmail account, how can I stop this?
You should be able to open both accounts.
I believe Hotmail T&C may expect you to have only one account, but possibly multiple alliases.
You may have problems opening two separate hotmail accounts at once in Firefox. Try using a new private browsing window for the second one. With any look that will separate them enough for you to use both at once.
(With other account holders permission.) I sometimes open my own and another persons hotmail account by that method.

I hooked up my iPod to the computer and opened iTunes and now all my music is gone. I have greyed out areas where the music is supposed to be, but it says that I still have the same number of songs as I did before. Can I get my music back?
Grayed out whee? Computer? On iPod?
If in iPod that means the music files got corrupted and are lost.

Since downloading Yosemite, Safari will close itself out, when I reopen it all of my pages are gone. How do I stop this from happening?
But if iit won't stay open, then it's quitting unexpectedly which is the same as a crash.
There has to be a reason for that which a crash report should reveal.

My hard drive failed and so was replaced, luckily everything was backed up on time machine.
I tried to do a full restore, and it went through the process but I couldn't see my files anywhere on the HD. I tried again and same thing. Eventually I used Migration Assistant and this worked fine.
However my hard drive is now full - all my previous restores went somewhere but I can't get at them.
Can anyone please help, I need to delete them from my system.
ThanksIs the HDD in the 2009 15" MBP dead? (The original source of your data) If not, you might want ot take it out and put it in an enclosure.
You might try spotlight on know files to see if that gives you any clues where your data is located.
You might down load from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it. It should show you all of the files you have on your MBP and enable to locate them.
Ciao.
