Migration Assit , PC to MAC - The migration was successful, but I don't know where the files are.  It says they're under a different user, 'owner' .  I tried to access via sys pref/system/users&groups, but it asks for a password for owner which I don't have.  What must I do to access my files?
My experience is with MS PC's I'm new with the MAC Book Pro.

    You may try Adobe Support (phone),

    and talk to them about your registration, but I am unsure whether they can help you with anything pre CC (There was a Customer Care option with chat which seems to have stopped working).
    If you are still out of luck, please report back, and I will try to ask someone to find the right someone to help you.

  • How do you sync contacts with gmail, not other place on computer? I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from?

    I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from? I spent a LONG time on gmail going through my list of contacts. There were about 400 and I got it down to about 90. When I went to sync my new phone, ALL 400 synced.
    Thank you for any help!

    So plzz can some one help..

    The characters you get is just the (reversed) unicode representation of the string you want:
    class Printit{
    // this shows the two representations are equal:
    public static void main(String [] args){
         String tu = "" + '\u0061' + '\u003A' + '\\' /*'\u005C'*/
                           + '\u0070' + '\u0069'
                           + '\u0061' + '\u006E' + '\u006F'
                           + '\u002E'
                           + '\u0061' + '\u0075';
         System.out.println(tu);
    }shows this - well the '\' is only allowed escaped, so I may not use '\005C' directly.
    I suppose the field in DB has a wrong format or you do not read it the right way. The writing seems OK to me.

  • I backed up my iPad to the computer, I don't know where my pictures are stored

    I backed up my iPad to the computer, I don't know where my pictures are stored

    Your camera roll photos - the pictures that you take with the iPad camera or saved from websites are stored in the iPad backup. You will not see them anywhere on your computer unless you import them to the PC from the iPad.
    You cannot see what is stored in the iPad backup on your PC. It doesn't work that way. This explains iTunes backups - what is backed up and where the backup file is stored on the computer. It may be a little different in Windows 8. now.

  • How do you know where your files are if you save them in the wrong place?

    I have tons of video files for example.
    I want to watch the video I downloaded off the net about airplanes.
    I type in airplanes in spotlight, and many come up.
    they are quicktime files.
    but when I go to quicktime and try to delete by clicking on files, it does not
    show me comprehensively where these files are stored.
    Similarly, If i type in Geese, in spotlight, the same thing happens.
    But geese, and airplanes are not near each other. Which brings me to wonder.
    How many videos do I have stored in here anyway??
    How do I find ALL my videos? And erase what I need to and store what I need to away in thier proper place?
    I hope that makes sense.

    Use the custom Find window, AKA "Smart Folder". See in the Finder menubar under the "File" menu the selection "New Smart Folder".
    Typically files have an "extension", or a filename suffix that identifies what kind of file it is. Quicktime movies might have a ",mov" suffix, so type the suffix in the Smart Window search field or tell it to search "Kind" as "Movies".
    When you get the window full of found files, select the ones you want to move and drag them to the "Movies" folder.

  • I am trying to download skype, but it asks to agree to the terms of service. So I go to my email and check the terms fo service, but I don't know where the "agree" button is. Can someone please help me?

    I am trying to download Skype to my ipod (my friend gave me his old ipod touch, which is about 1-2 years old, according to the year 2014) And when I tried to install it, it said that I have to agree to the terms of use. So I go onto my computer and review the terms of use there on my email. I could NOT find the "agree" button. Please, can someone help me?

    The button would be on your iPod version of Skype, not the computer version. They are not the same.

  • Lost document on my new MAC because I accidentally saved on another account that I had no permission to save to..now I don't know where the doc is but I just know its somewhere on the computer..maybe the temp files or something?!sos! please help me!!

    I saved a document, while logged in as a Guest, to another user account [it was set up for some reason to save like that (I guess the person who used computer last did that) and I didn't check before "saving"] on accident. Of course I didn't have permission to save on the other user's account but I was in a rush and so I figured everything was fine but later I found that there was a message warning me saying it did not save because it couldn't save because I had no permission to save on that account and gave me the option to duplicate or cancel.. I wasn't paying attention so I can't remember which button I hit but clearly it wasn't "duplicate"
    I took hours perfecting this document and now I can't find it.. anywhere!
    Where do these types of things go when this happens.. I know it's somewhere on the computer but where?? SOS I need the doc and I'm hoping I can find it
    I guess it's the same as someone who accidnetly hits "don't save"... question still stands.. please anyone help me!!!
    I'm trying to use Disk Drill but I only found things from November and it seems like it only shows files that have been physically/manually deleted..and my TIME MACHINE WAS NOT SET UP..because we recently got this MAC computer and had no clue what it was
    maybe its in some temp files somewhere..where do not saved documents go.. i know that it is probably writable but I know that is probably still exists
    ANYONE WITH INFO PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • I upgraded to Lion and now my iPhoto won't open and I don't know where my pictures are

    I upgraded to Lion and now i don't have Iphoto anymore.  Where did all of my pictures go??

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • HT204053 I have an iCloud ID on my iPad 2 which is different to my Apple ID.  I don't know where the reset email is going to? It's not recognising my birthdate.  Could be a hacker.  What do I do?

    My iCloud Id is different to my Apple ID on my iPad 2. Trying to make them the same but cannot reset.  Reset goes to my Apple ID gmail.  This password is fine.  Gmail sees both my gmail addresses as belonging to the same person because they do.  One has a . in the name and one doesn't.  They marry up the two addresses.  This is confusing iCloud and Apple ID.  Have tried to access account through security questions but its not recognising my birthdate.  This is weird as no other matching names globally.  Maybe a hacker has taken over the iCloud account ID.  I'm not sure how to resolve.  Help please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    It's what we are supposed to use for class.
    I've tried to get a more complete error message because then maybe I could figure out whats wrong but that's all that comes up. and it highlights the last bracket. At first I thought it meant the brackets were off but I've triple checked that and I added an extra one in to try that out too and it changed nothing. I've even tried removing certain chunks of code to see if I could isolate the problem and the same error came up no matter what I did.
