You cannot take a folder out of the Trash to your Desktop without erasing the one on the Desktop. You need to first change the name of the folder on the Desktop. Or you can open the folder that's in the Trash and drag the files onto the Desktop assuming there aren't too many of them.
But if you have a duplicate on the Desktop why do you need to remove the one that's in the Trash?
If you feel you must take the folder out of the Trash, then you need to rename the duplicate that's on your Desktop.
If you wish to put the folder back where it was when you deleted it, then open the Trash window, select the folder, then CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select "Put Back" from the context menu.

  • How do I add a photo album so that it can be used on apple tv share on tv.  It only shows albums that were on when we setup the apple TV ?

    I have been trying to add additional picture albums to my apple TV menu so that we can view then on our TV but not sure how to do that as when I turn on the Apple Tv control the album I thought I added doesn't show up.  Could use some help telling me how to do this and also to remove the older albums.

    You can use the shift key to select all of the songs on the album and then drag and drop them onto your iPod. Rerfer to this thread for instructions on how to view the side bar.

  • How Do I Create a Screen Saver That Uses Shared Photos??

    I have a pretty simple request here, or at least I think it should be pretty simple. My family uses a shared photo stream so that we can all see what everybody is up to without sending a bunch of individual messages.
    I'm going to use a screen saver that displays photos but the tricky part is...I'd like the family's shared stream to be the source for all the photos.
    Previously, I went into iPhoto and just selected all of the photos from the stream, dragged them into a desktop folder, and set this as the source for the screen saver. The only problem with this method is that whenever a new photo is added, it won't show up in the screen saver (obviously). That's why I'd like to set the shared photos as the source.
    Is there a simple way to do this and set the shared photos as the screen saver source??    I would even settle for doing the alternate method that I described in the last paragraph, but I can't even figure out how to do this with the new "Photos" app...
    PLEASE HELP!! Thanks in advance...
    Pete

    Pete, setting the screensaver is a matter of patience, the menus are very slow, if you just set up the system and the spotlight index has still to be recreated.
    But you should be able to it this way:
    Open the Desktop&Screensaver System preferences, select the Screensaver tab.
    In the left pane select a screensaver template for slideshows.
    In the right pane select the Source menu.
    Now wait and have a cup of coffee, while "Loading is showing"
    Then select the last item "Photo Library".
    Wait again, until your current photo libraries are shown.
    Select the Photos library,
    Select the Shared section and your shared family stream.

    how do i get my photos to stream to my iPad in the events that were oringally created.  Right now they are streaming as photos and are not grouped at all.  I would like to get them back into the events that were originally created

    Hi..
    Thanks for the reply..
    My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
    My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
    Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
    I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
    So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
    I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
    but it doesn't help me..

  • How do I attach a photo in my private message in Facebook using iPad2?

    How do I attach a photo to my private messge in Facebook using iPad2? I tried to tap the clip but it didn't respond.

    The actual Facebook app does not offer this facility.  There are other facebook apps you can check out in the App Store, some of which I've read do offer this, but I don't post enough photo's to facebook to have personally checked any of them out myself.

    The external hard drive must connect to your Mac using a USB or FireWire connection.
    Note that the hard drive must be formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to work correctly with the iPhoto Library and be backed up to the Time Capsule and with the backups of your Mac.
    We are really talking about iPhoto uses here, so you should post in the iPhoto Support area for more details about this. The link is just below.

  • How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    All photos captured or saved with the iPhone are stored in the Camera Roll which cannot be changed.
    You can create an album to place photos in that are in the Camera Roll which does not duplicate the photo. It creates a pointer to the original photo stored in the Camera Roll. If the original is deleted from the Camera Roll, it will be removed from the album as well.
    Import the photos from the Camera Roll with your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. Create an album or albums for the imported photos on your computer followed by transferring the albums from your computer via the iTunes sync process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • How can I use my Events album for the Screen saver?

    I would like to use the "Events" album from my iPhoto 09 for my Screen Saver pictures source, but can't seem to find a way to do this.  I tried to create a new folder in the Screen Saver preferences, but couldn't find a way to get to the Events album.
    If anyone has a tip I would appreciate the help.  I'm using Snow Leopard on a 27" iMac. Thanks much!

    Try System Preferences - Desktop & Screensaver - Click the + sign at the bottom of the box on the left (see the picture) then choose where the photos are stored and you should be good to go.

  • How do i remove the airplay option from the screen saver on my apple tv.  Its blocking all my pictures

    The Airplay Screen saver option telling me to choose a wi fi and choose this apple tv keeps poping up on my apple tv when it goes on screen saver mode.  It blocks all of my photos showing on my screen saver.  Can anyone help me to remove this

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Assuming that both devices are connected to the same network and that airplay is not turned off in your Apple TV settings, then you should be able to see the airplay icon when playing content on your iPad, by tapping the screen to reveal the playback control bar.
    If you do not see the airplay icon when you do this, you might try restarting the iPad, the Apple TV and your router.

  • How do I restore my Admin status for a program in Applications using 10.6.8

    How do I restore my Admin status for a program in Applications using 10.6.8?

    Is this the file that does not have the desired priveleges? I think that's correct. If so, then open Terminal in the Utilitie folder. At the prompt enter:
    sudo chown -Rf root:admin [dragged file goes here]
    Leave a space after "root:admin" and drag the file you need to change into the Terminal window. Press RETURN. You will be asked to enter your admin password. It will not be echoed to the screen so type carefully. Press RETURN again.
    This will change the priveleges of the file to the default for the Applications folder.
