HT204407 Old Aliases show up in Find My Friends

Is anyone else having this issue? When I log into Find My Friends, under accounts and "send as" aliases show up under my account that I deleted way back during MobileMe. When i go onto icloud these aliases don't show up, they just seem to be stuck to my account in Find My Friends. Any ideas how to clear it out?

And same here too! Guys give feedback here:

My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work. As long as I have this screen situation, I cann't do anything on my I Pad. Please help !!

I have the same problem on my iPhone4. It is obviously a bug in the software. Once it pops out I am locked out of my phone. I can't even begin to describe the frustration this causes. All that stuff about holding down the buttons is useless. the phone won't even shut off. I can take a screen shot like that or go to voice control. Even when I got to a wifi connection, I can't get on. This app blocks everything else. This is a serious bug and can have serious consequences. The only thing my phone would do is go to voice control and let me play iTunes or phone people. Some smart phone hey?
I have finally got to a place with a wide enough wifi to connect my computer and restore the phone. This has lasted over a day!
I don't even know why Find My Friends is on my phone. Is it part of the package and how do I turn it off?

The wrong name shows up in find my friends

Answer found in another thread.
Thanks!

The name shown with sent email is based on the name entered in the name field for the email account settings with the email client used.
If you are unable to change this with the account settings on the iPhone, delete the account followed by recreating the account entering the name you want to use in the Name Field with the account settings.

I have over 60,000 photos in my iPhoto. When my screen saver comes on it randomly shows certain photos. Often, these photos are old and I in turn find the desire to print said photo. Is there a way the screen saver can convey a photo file name as well?

Is there a way the screen saver can convey a photo file name or location as well? Can I create a slideshow of all my photos to cycle through at leisure with photo info? Lastly, I know I have duplicates and have tried numerous software programs to delete duplicates to no avail. What do you recommend as a method to reduce duplicates on iphoto? Thanks for your time.

1. No.
2. Yes.
3. Some apps for dealing with duplicates in iPhoto
iPhoto Library Manager
Duplicate Annihilator
Decliner
iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner

I Just converted my iPhoto library to Photos. Now I can't find my RAW files. I need to have all the images in my old library show up in their RAW format.

Unfortunately no - Photos use extensions and the vendor (adobe) will have to implement the extension to allow external edits in PS or PSE
For now you must export the photo, edit and then import - not great but a work arond
And you can continue to use iPhoto until Photos meets your needs - launch it in your applications folder - if you need assistance on this see Why won't my iPhotos open?

HT204407 Find my friends shows completely wrong adress every time I go to a specific place

Every time the phone goes to a certain adress it actuall shows it at an adress 2.4 hours away, every time but never has any other problem. Phone will be in a spot in eustis florida and the find my friends app always says it's on homer road in Jacksonville Florida which is almost 3 hours away.

Find my Friends uses Apples own map data. The same data as the Apple Maps app uses.

Is there anyway to report Find My Friends bugs?

I found this post after losing secondary iCloud account support for multiple device "Find my iPhone." We used a secondary iCloud account to locate the entire family's iDevices in one place, and Apple removed that functionality in iOS7. Someone suggested using Find my Friends, which seems like a reasonable alternative, but I'm having hte same problem you describe. Before iOS7, were you able to locate devices that were not open to the app? If so, I hope Apple decides to fix this.

External HDD (Internal) Not Showing Up In Finder, But It Is Showing Up In Disk Utility

Before I start, I know that this question has technically been solved before, but not exactly in my case. Keep in mind that I'm a graphic designer, this is why I am so passionate about fixing this issue. So, here's the story. Yesterday, I sold my Mac mini (Late 2009). I had plans of buying the new MacBook Pro w/ Retina Display (15 inch), and that worked out perfectly. I bought the MacBook and sold my Mac mini. Prior to selling the Mac mini, I decided to format an old hard drive that I had, which was a 160GB hard drive. My plan was to sell the computer with the 160GB HDD, and keep my 750GB HDD. I know my fair share of computing and repair, so I replaced the hard drive myself, and reinstalled Mac OS X ML on the 160GB HDD. I installed the OS via external SATA to USB connection, and it booted up perfectly through that connection to my Mac mini. Then, when I took out the 160GB HDD, my computer booted to my priority internal drive, which was the 750 GB HDD, that I'm having problems with currently. It booted up perfectly, and all of my information was on it. So, at that point, seeing that everything was flawless, I extracted the 750GB HDD, from inside the computer and replaced it with the 160GB HDD, which I formatted, reinstalled ML on, and was planning on selling it with. The 160GB HDD booted perfectly and everything was working on the Mac mini, but then, I plugged in my 750GB HDD via USB connection, to see if my files and everything was still there, I got a message saying, "The disk you inserted is not readable by this computer" and it gave me three options underneath, which were: "Initialize...", "Ignore" and "Eject". I pressed on initialize, and tried to do everything that I possibly could, without formatting it, and all of the options like "Verify Disk" and "Repair Disk" were "grayed out", if you know what I mean. I tried plugging it into all 5 USB ports, but I got the same message. It was recognized in Disk Utility, but not in Finder. So, I sold the computer with the 160GB HDD that was working fine, but now I had another dilemma which was why my 750GB HDD, isn't showing up in Finder. I can hear the HDD spinning when I plug it in via USB. This Hard Drive has run Mac OS X Lion and Mountain Lion on it, I've never installed Windows on it. So, it was properly formatted for a Mac. Now, I went out and bought the MacBook Pro with Retina Display that I needed, and I tried doing the same thing, which was plugging it in via USB, and seeing if Finder would pick it up. Still, nothing. I ended up with the same message. Here are some reference screenshots, of what I'm getting exactly.
I've called Western Digital, and they told me to try booting up the 750GB HDD, in an older Macbook Pro, to see if it will boot, and recovery all of the files from there. The problem is, I don't know anybody with an older MBP. I called Best Buy and they said that they could take a look at it, but I would truly prefer by fixing this on my own, without having to pay them. That would be my LAST resort. I'm aware that I can't boot up the 750GB HDD in my new MBP w/ Retina because it can only carry SSD. So, I'm basically puzzled. If anybody could help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated. Like I said before, I'm a graphic designer, and I'm in desperate need of the files that were on my 750GB HDD. Thanks.

External hard drive doesn't show up in finder or migration assistant

Hello all,
I'm new to this forum and pardon me if this question isn't posted in the right category.
I recently broke my old macbook pro to the point it was inoperable. I extracted the hard drive which appeared to be in good shape, put it in an external enclosure & plugged it into my new macbook pro via usb and it's not showing up in finder, disc utility or migration assistant. I'd like to import my old music, pictures & documents if possible. I'm curious why it isn't showing up and how I can make migration assistant work?
Hope everyone had a good Christmas and a happy new year!
Thanks,
Andrew

Photos are not showing up in Finder

I am using Aperture 3.2.4 on an iMac purchased in July 2011.
This is a new problem...suddenly none of the photos that I have imported into Aperture and then renamed are showing up the Finder. By renamed, I mean it is a photo I gave a new version name to by using the metadata tab. (Ex: "IMG_5678" was renamed "6.1.12 John & Jane").
I imported a bunch of photos last week after returning from a vacation. In the Finder I can see most of the projects, but inside the projects only the versions still labelled IMG_XXXX are showing. Any versions that I renamed are not there. And the project I created called Photo Album - which has only renamed versions in it - doesn't show up at all. This was not the case 4 days ago, because I downloaded the photo album to Facebook. (I did so manually through FB, choosing the photos in the Finder, not through the FB button in Aperture).
Its not just an issue with these new vacation photos, but with all photos I have imported directly into Aperture...
When we bought this iMac last July, the Apple store downloaded a bunch of our PC data into it, including loading all of our photos into iPhoto. About a month later I moved all the photos from iPhoto to Aperture. The photos imported from iPhoto are all showing up in the finder just fine, and are organized into the folders just like they are in Aperture. Ex:
Main Folder: Photos 2010
     Subfolder: Thailand April 2010
          All the projects then show up, with all their versions (renamed or not), including the Photo Album project
     Subfolder: New Orleans May 2010
          All the projects then show up, with all their versions (renamed or not), including the Photo Album project
So these are still perfect in the Finder.
When I click on the Photos 2011 folder, the photos pre-August (the ones imported from our old PC and then from iPhoto) show up just fine. But from August-December, all I get are projects (not organized into their folders), and the renamed photos have disappeared, as have the Photo Album projects. (Again, the Photo Albums contain only renamed versions. But the Photo Album project doesn't show up empty, it simply doesn't show up at all).
When I click on the Photos 2012 folder, all photos imported directly into Aperture, I get the same problem: a list of projects, not organized into their folders, all of the renamed versions within the projects have disappeared, as have the Photo Album projects.
I've tried restarting the computer, hoping it would 'reload' the photos into the Finder, but no.
Can anyone help?

"Photo" has no useful meaning in Aperture.
You import files. Once imported, Aperture refers to them as "Masters" (prior to 3.3) or "Originals" (3.3). Keeping with this new change, I will refer to them as "Originals". Every Original shows in Aperture as an Image. Every Image has a Version. The Version has a name. The Version is actually a text file that contains instructions on what changes to make to the Original in order to show you the Image. The Version and the Original are not the same (one is an image-format file, the other is a text file), even though the Image of the Version and the Image of the Original may appear to be identical.
Within Aperture you work with Images. Since every Image has a unique Version, Images are often called "Versions".
Originals can have several Versions.
Aperture never alters your Originals.
Aperture either stores your Originals inside the Aperture Library (in which case they are called "Managed" Originals) or lets you put them on any locally mounted drive on your system (in which case they are called "Referenced" Masters).
When you want an image-format file to share with another program, you create one by exporting a Version or an Original. "Export" means "make me an image-format file that looks like this". You set the format and the parameters for that format in an Image Export Preset.
Aperture is an image-manager, not a file-manager. There _cannot_ be a one-to-one correspondence between Images in Aperture and their locations in the Library structure you create, and files in Finder and their locations in the Finder folders you create. Images are not files; Aperture Folders are not Finder folders.
I can't tell from your description whether you have any Referenced Originals or not.
Once you import a file into Aperture and it becomes an Original, you must never move or alter it with any program other than Aperture (or -- as of Monday -- the newest version of iPhoto).
My general suggestion for those having difficulties like you are, is to select all your Images (by, yes, clicking the misnamed "Photos" near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector) and run "File➞Consolidate Masters". This will move any Referenced Originals to inside Aperture's Library (and thus convert them to Managed Masters). Take advantage of Aperture's strong and robust organizing tools. Build a structure of Projects, Albums, and Folders that gives you the storage and retrieval capabilities you want. Use it. When you need image-format files to share with other programs, create them by exporting. Do not use Finder to organize your Originals. Do not use Finder to look for your Originals. Do not use Finder for image-management.
HTH.

Folders not showing up in Finder?

I've recently bought an iMac (21.5") and have been transferring all my music from the old PC to it via an external hard drive (format: MS-DOS (FAT32), 1tb).
I've noticed that some folders just don't show up in Finder. I have no idea why - they are exactly the same as every other folder on the hard drive ie. a folder containing an album with mp3s (same format of audio as all the other folders). It's definitely not a space problem.
It's a real nuisance as there may be more folders that haven't showed up that I'm not aware of (I only found out by chance that some were missing when I was specifically looking for them), I have a LOT of music.
Note: the folders show up when plugged into the pc.
Some help around this issue would be great. I have tried verifying/repairing the hard drive via Disk Utility, and deleting & re-adding the albums from the pc to the hard drive again. They still don't show up. (they're not hidden either). I also googled but couldn't find anything.
I wasn't sure whether to post this under the iMac or the OS section.. I'm running Lion 10.7.1 if it helps. Hopefully someone will be able to help me!

Ok, that worked to see hidden files, but the folders still didn't show up. (Not surprised, I didn't think they were hidden anyway).
This is such a bizarre issue! I renamed the folders to all plain English letters instead of the original names which included some foreign letters (I did this via the pc), and now they show up when the hard drive is plugged into the mac. So I think I'll just leave them like that, copy them to the mac hard drive and rename them back to the original names later. It's still strange that this happened in the first place though. Now I'll have to check every folder with foreign characters on the pc and do the same thing. (sigh)
Thanks for your help. If you have any more suggestions please do let me know! Hopefully there is an explanation/easier way around this.

Ipod not showing up in finder or itunes

I had to replace my old ipod and got this new 5th generation video one. i synched it once and haven't done it again in about 3 or 4 months, now it won't show up in finder or itunes. Tried reseting it... nothing. have upgraded to itunes 7.1.1, still nothing. i can't restore because it doesn't show up anywhere...any suggestions?
susie

I uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime, then reinstalled
iTunes. Then I reset the ipod once I connected and
VIOLA! Now it works (2 trips to apple store and 1
replacement ipod later!!)
Not to sound lazy, but not sure I want to go tthrough all of that?...
I have 3 connections chords, and two other iPods that show in iTunes no problem. This 5th gen video iPod will just not show up in iTunes or mount?Tried all the solutions posted around and nothing. It is fully charged (does charge etc.,) just won't show on the computer. It is a friend's iPod that I manage, so something might have happened while not in my care?
Anything else....? I've spent way too much time on this...

My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder

My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder and I can't get it to sync with iCal. Any ideas? I've had trouble in the past with cameras and other devices not showing up in Finder and I don't know what is wrong! I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8 which is quite old but this is its main problem...
Thanks!

The sync is 2 way. If you created items in the calendar on the phone, however, BEFORE you set up the sync relationship, those items are stored in the calendar on the phone only.
Go into the calendar and tap the "Calendars" button in the upper left. You will see lists of all the calendars. On my iPhone are those that live exclusively on the phone. You will also see From My Mac (or something similar) as well as any that are synced with Exchange accounts, iCloud, etc.
Now go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Scroll down to Calendars and make sure the Default Calendar is set to the correct calendar. I don't believe there is any easy way to move all your entries from the local calendar to the one that syncs with iCal, but you can go into each entry and specify which calendar it belongs to.

IPod touch not showing up in finder, under devices.

My iPod doesn't show up on finder. It should come up under devices but all that is there is my mac, and firefox. I really need it to be there so please help.

I have the same problem... iTunes is not allowing me to upload music that wasn't purchased explicitly through iTunes. I am trying to transfer my newer iPod Touch to my son so I can use his older iPod Touch. He wants the ability to play games, and I only care about keeping my music library. To complicate matters, I just bought a new Macbook Pro, and hadn't planned on simply migrating from the old one.
Nearly all of the music on my device was loaded through Amazon purchases or ripped CDs, as I don't really care for iTunes all that much. The KB here notes that only iTunes purchases can be uploaded (weak tea, Apple... seriously weak).
Fortunately, I still have my old laptop, so I'll have to use the migration assistant. Yippie...
