What video card/graphics card does your Mac computer use? NVIDIA GeForce? If so, please read the description and solution for the Premiere Elements/NVIDIA GeForce issue in the Announcement on the matter at the top of this forum. Any questions or need clarification on that, please do

Are you running Premiere Elements 10 from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
Is this a "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before" type issue.
On the Windows side of things, application of Run As Administrator as well as the User Account with Administrative Privileges has been know
to resolve some of these issues. I am strictly an Elements Windows user. What is the Mac side of the story for Run As Administrator? At any
rate, are your computer permissions in order?
Just to cover all bases, do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 10?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

Can I detect if something is connected to the vga port?
Is there a software solution to detect if something is connected to the vga port of my laptop? I want to write a script that can automatically choose if to run X in dual head or single head mode.
Yes - Airplay will work whether the Express is wired or wireless - wired is the most reliable way to go - note however that if you wire the Express, you would use the "create a wireless network" option and use the same name and password as your main network

why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice
This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it
I've already right-clicked on the application, clicked "get info", and changed it so all people listed in the "Sharing & Permissions" section have the "read & write" privilage.
The error message is referring to your iTunes library, not your iTunes application.
You need to check and fix the permissions of the iTunes folder in your iTunes library. This is by default located in your "Music" folder.
Select the folder Music > iTunes in the Finder, right click on it or Ctrl Click and click "Get Info". At the bottom of the contextual window thatwill pop up, disclose the Sharing and Permissions brick, change your status from Read only to Read & Write. You may need to click the padlock icon to make changes. -

Cable that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)
Hi,
The HDMI port on my Maxent tv is not working. I am hoping to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV via the VGA port on the TV to watch Netflix and movies. What cables do I need that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)? And will that cable support audio or will I need a separate audio cable?
Thanks-
SheriHi Sheri,
The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro models have a Mini DisplayPort for video out, which can be connected to a VGA connector using Apple's adapter. See this product page -
Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - Apple Store (U.S.)
VGA does not carry an audio signal.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Having a problem with a iPhone 3GS. When I try to back it up on my pc or laptop it has a error message. We have other iPhones that will connect when plugged in. I need to back up my data on this iPhone so it can be serviced. Can anyone help?
Try a quick reset of the phone first. If it still doesn't work, go to Edit/Preferences/Devices in itunes and delete the old backup for the 3GS.

The charger port pin in an iphone 5 is broken. What are the possible solutions to this issue?
The charger port pin in an iphone 5 is broken. What are the possible solutions to this issue?
Read: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4436
It is pretty short so here is the entire text:
Symptoms
A purplish or other colored flare, haze, or spot is imaged from out-of-scene bright light sources during still image or video capture.
Resolution
Most small cameras, including those in every generation of iPhone, may exhibit some form of flare at the edge of the frame when capturing an image with out-of-scene light sources. This can happen when a light source is positioned at an angle (usually just outside the field of view) so that it causes a reflection off the surfaces inside the camera module and onto the camera sensor. Moving the camera slightly to change the position at which the bright light is entering the lens, or shielding the lens with your hand, should minimize or eliminate the effect.
Which is exactly what eelw wrote.

Can anyone help me figure out how to sync my ipod with my purchased music? I have used several computer and at one point synced my ipod with a computer that only had about half of my music. My other computers are no longer working. Not sure how to get my purchased music back onto my ipod?
Hi kimcinma!
Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

Try restoring from your backup of a day or so prior to when you made the error.

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

On i pod touch the orientation does not change when I turn it on it's side when using safari etc. When viewing youtube it only displays widescreen and will not display portrait , anyone any ideas? is this a fault or do all ipod touch do this?
The user guide says:
Movies viewed in Videos and YouTube appear only in landscape orientation. Street views in Maps
also appear only in landscape orientation.
Do you have the scree orientation lock turned on? If on there is a circular arrow icon with a padlock inside next to the battery charge icon in the upper right. -
After I update my iMac 27" to 10.7.1, the vpn is disconect every 30-40 minutes... -.- :@ What can I do about it?, After I update my iMac 27" to 10.7.1, the vpn is disconect every 30-40 minutes... -.- :@ What can I do about it?
jdotmattinson is correct! I have the same issue.
It is a router/ISP issue. Tried the software update drop down for 10.7.4, failed. Tried to download 10.7.4 Combo Client update, invalid checksum. Tried to download 10.7.3 Combo client update, invalid checksum.
Went over to Win7 Dell laptop, downloaded 10.7.4 Combo update, transferred to MacMini via USB drive. Invalid checksum. WHICH led me to diagnose it wasn't my Mac, but Apple's servers or my ISP/Router.
Went to work, downloaded on XP, put on USB drive, brought it home, copied, installed just fine!
Did a hard factory reset on Motorola Surfboard SBG5560, invalid checksum again.
Going to buy a new router tonight and test it again with dowloading 10.7.4 Combo update. Will keep you posted to see if that fixes it.
Btw, if a new one doesn't fix it then it's my Comcast ISP service that is messing it up. Which is going to make me cry....check out this link... be afraid, be VERY afraid if this is the problem/solution.

Calendar app that will synch between iMac 10.6.8, iPad 2 and iPhone 5
I am looking for a calendar app that will synch my 3 devices (iMac 10.6.8, iPad 2 and iPhone 5). I tried upgrading my iMac to the latest version, whatever cat that is. I hated it ANd it didn't synch properly. Most events duplicated and some up to 5-6 times. I might have stuck it out and tried to figure out the replicating issue but I despised the entire interface to downgraded back to 10.6.8. I am thinking there has to be an app out there that will successfully synch calendars between these devices but from my search in the App Store, most seem to be geared to mobile devices only but I want to be able to see my events when I am at home on my iMac, too. Does anyone know of an independent app that will do this?
