    I had made a copy of the main revel file on my mac, and then i put it in my google drive folder for safety. I accidentally deleted one of the two libraries form my iPhone. I opened it up and panicked and thankfully I guess I had a backup of the other library in my spouses phone... but mine is still gone. I don't have them saved to my computer... the pictures are important and I really really need them back.  Is there a way for me to get the pictures back from what I believed at the time was a smart way to backup when i made a duplicate of that main mac file to my google drive? The best way to let me know is my email... [email protected]  I am really relying on you guys if there is a way?

    Don't use any cleaning spray. Wipe with a moist but not wet microfiber cloth.

  • One of the keys popped off of my keyboard, is there a way for me to pop it back on ?

    dancestar10997,
    if it still has its tiny retaining tabs, then you should be able to pop it back on. If they’re no longer there, then it won’t stay on.

  • One of the users on my Mac book pro, running Mountain lion finds that no changes made in last session are there next time they log on

    One of the users on my Mac book pro running mountain lion finds that no changes made in last session are there next time they log on.
    For instance, the Macintosh HD icon, is always moved so that it is almost off the screen to top left hand side of the desktop.
    None of my changes to the sidebar in the finder are there.
    My changes to the dock have reverted.
    Despite unticking the box when logging out, even though i have quit all applications, iphoto and safari are always re-opened.
    iphoto always says the library needs to be upgraded... even though i did that the last time.
    I have tried deleting ALL the files in the "Saved application state" folder in the library folder, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
    This is on a second admin user account.
    The main user account seems to be fine.
    This account used to be in the filevault on Lion, but is not now in Mountain Lion.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    The same tragic thing happened to me, not even a full two days after I bought it. I immediately powered it off, wiped it as best I could, and put it in front of a fan. I tried valiantly to get the back off, but couldn't remove all the screws. I was basically inconsolable until I realized that no matter what, my credit card insurance would cover it, since it had been less than 90 days. Fast forward 48 hours, and it seemed to run just fine. Some of the keys and the track pad were sticky, and I figured since it was covered, I might as well get it fixed. My only concern at this point was had I voided the Apple Care. I brought it in, told them what happened, said what I needed to satisfy the credit card, and they said, "We'll just swap it out for you, no problem." I was thrilled, and the Genius said they appreciated my honesty, and it was easier for all parties to just do it this way. And my Apple Care was transferred to the new machine. This was my first Mac and, needless to say, I am now an Apple devotee.

  • HT203167 I was downloading an album off of iTunes and it did not download one of the songs for some reason what should I do?

    I was downloading an album off of iTunes and it did not download one of the songs for some reason what should I do?

    Does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option find it ? If not, then depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries), does it show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes for downloading (if there is an complete download of the track listed in the Music part of your library then you will need to delete it from there before it will get the cloud symbol in Purchased for redownloading) ?
    If you can't download it via either of the above then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • I have two ip address on my machine,I want to directory server listen in one of the ip address(port 389) .what can i do

    i have two ip address on my machine,I want to directory server listen in one of the ip address(port 389) .what can i do,now it is listen on 0.0.0.0

    Hi,
    Can you please show the current link? (the docs.iplanet.com is no longer valid)
    I also have multiple ip addresses on my machine. When I login into the admin server, it always thinks it's one of the secondary ip addresses, which aren't granted access rights.
    For example, if I go to configure a different port number for the admin server, it won't let me, because it thinks I am on one of the ip addresses which aren't allowed to access it.
    Thanks.

  • How can i change the colour of the keys on my mac? is it possible to get them changed?

    i was looking at a macbook i was today and it's keys on the keyboard were in a rainbow formation, with different colours. Is there a way to bring mine in to change the colours of the keys? or did i have to order it like that?

    Ask the person who owned the computer or do a Google & Bing search. 

  • How to set the Key Photo in .Mac Web Gallery ?

    Has anyone managed to set the key photo in a .Mac Web Gallery album ? The key photo is the photo used on the main page of the Web Gallery to illustrate the event.
    In iPhoto, all you do is select in the left column a published .Mac Web Gallery, right-click on the photo you want to set as the key photo, and select "set as key photo".
    In aperture, you can do the same in a project, but this will only set the key photo for your "all projects" view. This key photo is not used when exporting the project to .mac web gallery.
    In all the web galleries I export from Aperture, the first picture is used as the key photo, it's really a problem. Any solution ?
    Message was edited by: skiss

    There is a small "Header Bar" if you will in iPhoto, you can drag the photo you want to that header bar and I think that accomplishes what you want if I understand what you mean by Key Photo (the photo that shows up in e-mail if you forward the gallery to others). My wife and I stumbled on that solution as we were trying to figure it out. Actually I think wife gets the credit, she had the mouse in her hand when it happened .

  • I can't hear one of the channels on my ipod--what should I do?

    One of the channels on my iPod isn't working. I can hear it when I wiggle the headphone jack in the input, but it doesn't last. I have AppleCare. Should I take it into my local Apple store? Devin
    dell   Windows XP  

    Well, it may be your actual set of headphones/ear buds that are the issue here. Have you tried another pair of good headphones to see if the issue is resolved when you try them?
    If you know that it's the iPod itself, then yes, I would suggest taking your iPod into your local Apple store if the iPod is still under warranty.

  • The keys on my mac air and slowly losing function.

    The keys on my laptop and slowly losing function. They all still have a back light. Do you know if Apple replaces the keypad on MacBook Air? Thanks

    You may have this sorted out by now - but if not try resetting your Language to English.  I had the issue and found the emoji keyboard was set to spanish.

  • One of the security questions isn't what I set when I made my account

    When I made this account I set two questions and I know the answers to those questions like it's my own name. This issue happened with me before I don't know how it worked last time but I had to speak to not one but TWO employes via email and it took ages they told me to call the support center in my country or close countries but living in the Middle East there is only one and reaching it is very much impossible.
    So the issue is that one of the two security questions isn't what I set it when I created the account the wrong question is asking me "what was your first car?" But I never had a car! I need to find a new and fast way to fix this issue.
    Please help me!

    After the last time did you put a rescue email address on your account ? If you did then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you didn't (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple again to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use
