Can I pick and chose which songs are in my Imatch account.
I have gone over the 25,000 song limit

Hi,
You can't pick and chose what tracks to match but I suggest that you read this Managing iTunes match with over 25k tracks

How does one do updates when your service provider is s-l-o-w?? According to the counter, our computer needs almost 20 hrs. of updates, is there a way to pick and choose which ones are downloaded?

We have a "Rocket Hub" and our download times vary greatly. My husband's computer, Snow Leopard OS, shows he has about 20 hrs. of updates to download. Is there a way to pick and choose so we can catch up?

Nope, because files sizes, machines, software installed are different and you can't control what needs to be installed first before others work.
Apple is all Internet, you should see Lion users, they can't reinstall their OS at all without a Internet connection. (or pay $69 for the Lion USB key) and then there still the updates to deal with.
So take a ride, to a Apple Store early in the morning before their network gets overloaded (what a way to get you in the door and buy more junk uh?) fully update to 10.6.8.
Good thing about Snow Leopard, not much more in large updates coming for that verision, in fact they will stop completely come next spring or so when 10.8 is released.
Unless you live in a wealthy area with broadband, your a nobody in Apple's viewpoint.
You could get a 3G laptop connect card, hopefully that will give you enough to download your updates but they cost a fortune.
If I could just provide you with update disk I would, but I can't, machines are different.
Call Apple and ask for a update disk, perhaps they have a solution
Once you do get all your updates, Carbon Copy Clone your boot drive to a external drive, it's hold the option key bootable duplicate.
Donationware too.

Can I pick and choose what to clone with CCC

I bought a 2009 17" MBP "used", and it has a ton of files from the other guy on it, everywhere. For some reason it only has a 250 gig HD. I thought 500 was standard, maybe he changed that out. Anyway, I was hoping to totally clean out his junk and install a larger hardrive. My plan is to clone it onto the new hardrive. But I don't want to clone all of his junk.
Can I pick and choose what to clone with Carbon Copy? I do not have the OS (10.6.8) install discs so. I really just want to put the OS back on the machine then I can load whatever I want and the machine would be clean.

Yes. Carbon Copy Cloner allows you to choose which files you want to clone to an external drive. Have a look at the developer's site -> http://bombich.com/features

Can I pick and choose from my ITunes collection and split them up across devices

I am thinking of getting an iPod Classic. Will I be able to transfer some of the albums I have purchased on my iPad2 to the iPod Classic. Would I have to transfer everything, or can I pick and choose?
I am a non technical person so don't k ow about synchronising devices or just transferring stuff to another one.

A classic will be no good for you then. While an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch can, in principle, be used independently, an iPod classic can only be loaded up from an iTunes library running on a computer.

How can I pick and choose what IMAP folders are show in Mail?...

I am using IMAP and it works fine. Except "Sent" messages are saving on the server to "Send Messages" however I cannot see it on the list of IMAP folders in Mail. I see other folders, Save, etc. ones I created, just can't make the folder on the server show up in Mail.
If I go into the "Account Info" window in Mail, it does not show it either. Even though it is on the server and Mail is saving sent messages to it as it should.
Any ideas? How can I pick and choose what IMAP folders are show in Mail?
Thanks
Frank

Yes it is using the sent mailbox but just does not show it. MS Mail on Vista has a "show/hide" IMAP folder screen, I wish Mac Mail has this..would be perfect.
I was thinking about deleting the account, and adding it, that would reset it I am sure. However I have my mail set to keep a copy locally for off-line viewing (option in preferences under Account) and I get the sense that if I delete the IMAP account and add it, it will download a copy of each piece of mail (for example my inbox) again and I will have two of everything. Does this make sense? Do you think this will happen?

Some software updates pertain to things that I would never need. Is it okay to "pick and choose" which software updates we install?

I am not computer savvy, so bare with me. I have OSX Lion 10.7.5. I only use it to surf and for photos. I keep getting reminders that software updates are ready to install. And for months and months I have continued to ignore them because their explanations seem to tell me they are not things I would ever want or need. I see no reason to take up space on my computer for things that I have no intention of using. (Yes, I am a "mature" person). The updates are for Remote Desktop Client; Migration Assistant for Lion migrating to Maverick??; Airport Utility and i-Tunes. I also keep coming across in blogs and articles about upgrading from Lion to some other new app or software called Yosemite and I don't know if that is something I need to do? Thanks to anyone who can answer my questions.

You have the ability to 'hide' updates, which is what I do when OS X wants to update or install drivers for printers/cameras I don't have. That way it won't keep notifying you of updates you don't want. Either use the menu bar at the top, or right-click the update and click on Hide Update.
Yosemite is the newest version of OS X, which is the operating system for your Mac. Yosemite is more secure, and runs a bit faster than Lion on my iMac, although it looks a bit different. Check out http://www.apple.com/osx/ to learn if you want to upgrade or not. It's a free download from Apple.

Using Parallels to migrate from PC to Mac - licensing issues? Can I pick and choose what I migrate?

I want to run Parallels on my new imac. I want to bring Windows 7 over from my old PC. Will it run or will I have problems with the license? It was originally and oem Vista that I upgraded to WIndows 7.
Also, I don't want to bring over all the old crap (unused programs, potential viruses, etc) . Can I bring over just the programs I want? Or, can I bring over just the operating system and then install the programs I want?

OK, then do what they say.
A branded version of Windows will not run on another computer.
Licencing for a generic OEM version clearly only allows installing the OEM version on only one computer. You can not install an OEM version of Windows on more than one computer, even if you remove it from the first computer.
But my best advice is to install Windows and programs whenever transitioning to a new computer. Transfers of OS and programs typically do not go well and will cause you many problems.

I am out of space on my Macbook Air and have a Time Machine Backup. I want to complete reset my mac, but wonder if I can pick and choose what I restore to my computer? Can I also use my time machine backup and external storage as well?

I am out of space on my Macbook Air and have a Time Machine Backup. I want to complete reset my mac, but wonder if I can pick and choose what I restore to my computer? Can I also use my time machine backup as external storage as well for the files I don't need everyday?

If you are using "Restore from Time Machine Backup" option from OS X Recovery, you can only choose from the broad categories presented.
... Can I also use my time machine backup as external storage as well for the files I don't need everyday?
To be clear, if you are asking if you can use the volume containing your Time Machine backup to store additional, non-Time Machine files, the short answer is yes.
It's not a good idea though, since the Time Machine backup will eventually fill all available space, after which it begins to remove old, "expired" backups to make room for newer ones. The presence of additional files doesn't change that fact, and Time Machine will not erase them, but you will encounter a dilemma should you want to store additional files on that volume when there is no remaining space. You will have to make room for them on your own, by deleting existing files. Furthermore, since Time Machine cannot back up its own volume, those additional files will not be backed up by Time Machine.
The easy solution for what you describe is to purchase additional external storage. External USB hard disk drives have become very inexpensive; about $55 will buy a perfectly suitable 1 TB drive.
You can also choose to replace your MacBook Air's internal storage with a larger capacity one. Look for a suitable replacement from OWC / MacSales:

That gets a little more expensive but it is the optimum solution.

When using two iPhones (iOS 5) on the same computer/iTunes Is there any way to choose which songs, contact info., etc. are sync'd to each device?

When using two iPhones (iOS 5) on the same computer/iTunes Is there any way to choose which songs, contact info., etc. are sync'd to each device?

For each iPhone...
From the Summary tab select: Sync only checked songs and videos.
Under Options in the Summary tab select: Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi
If you want you can select: Manually manage music and videos.
Select the music you want synced from your iTunes library, same with Contacts.

HT4914 How can you tell which songs are downloaded from the cloud on an ipad

How can you tell which songs are downloaded on the iPad from the cloud?

I know ipad albums are more like tagging photos rather than putting them in folders. I just have a nagging feeling I missed some pics and I have too many to try to go figure out one by one. I don't look at my photos from the camera roll, only from albums I tagged just because I imported photos from different sources and the dates and order is really messed up. I just want to know that I am viewing all the photos from like this vacation or that event and there's none I missed that are only in the camera roll.
