I allow my grandchildren to play free games on my ipad and iphone that I download for them. Is there a way to prevent them from accidentally (or otherwise) purchasing upgrades? My 6 yr old just did so and has no idea how she did it. Is there a setting that would prevent this from happening?

Yes. You can set restrictions.

If you have a Mac, I know you can sync your notes with the Mail application using iTunes by going to the Info tab when you clikc on your iPhone under Devices. Other than that, you may just need to email the notes to yourself since the 3G cannot use iCloud to transfer them.

If you want to delete an app forever.
1st delete the app on your iPad and on any other iOS devices.
2nd delete the app from iTunes on your PC.

Yes, any 2.5" dia SATA HDD will be compatible. The largest are 2 TB at the present time> Here is a selection from OWC:

There are other vendors as well.
You will need a #00 Phillips and a #6 Torx drivers to install the HDD.
Ciao.

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

Firefox crashes before it can be open, just started today and have no idea how to fix it.

I was using Firefox when it first crashed, now when I try to restart it the Motzilla Crash Reporter window opens. I have no idea how to fix this. I tried to follow directions on-line (I'm not very computer savvy) but my signature/ID what ever is c27da8ef-4370-4963-9c18-cb5d52100726

I've been giving HD videos in MTS format and convert the for editing in FCE. Looks good in the program, but when I export the finished film, quality had been noticeable diminished. Is there any way to prevent FCE from lowering the output quality?

Hello -
I've been sent HD footage in MTS format and converted it to Mp4 for editing in FCE. It looks good in FCE but when I export the movie, the quality is noticably diminished. Is there any way I can prevent FCE from lowering the quality on export?
Thanks.

>I use Foxreal video converter for Mac to convert the MTS using the Apple intermediate codec setting and the problem is that I don't get image, just audio
My thought would be to NOT use Foxreal video converter.
Use MPEG Streamclip or Clipwrap.

HT1660 Whenever my computer does a hard shutdown I lose all of my playlists and have to reimport them, is there any way to prevent this from happening?

I had to hard reboot my computer again, which is a rare occurance and the previous time and this time I noticed that all of my music from CDs was missing and all of my playlists were gone. I can go back and reimport them, but that takes a long time because I have over 100 playlists because that is how I like my music organized. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening and is there a way to speed up the process by transferring them directly from my ipod touch? Thank you.

Hey there 79usma79!
I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

Is there a way to prevent iTunes from deleting TV shows and leaving them in the cloud.

I understand the benefits of the cloud. I'm fully on board. I however have to travel often for work and I am often far away from the luxury of wifi. I understand why it does what it does (removing tv shows and movies I haven't seen a while). Is there a way to turn it off though?
Thank you so much!

Unless there is a new feature I'm not aware of iTunes does not arbitrarily delete any content from your computer without your explicit action.

How do I uninstall 178,210 personas that my daughter installed, I have no idea how she did this or how to undo all this mess. One at a time may take me several years, have any suggestions for more than one. Thanks

My daughter has an addiction to computer and I thought she couldn't get thru my FoxFilter, never thought there was something she could mess up on Firefox itself. Every time I start my computer it runs and runs, and takes forever for anything to download. I understand why. I just don't know how to fix it. Since there are 178,210 of these personas been added to firefox. Thanks for your help.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Maybe alot was done on 7/30 or 7/31/10

Did she install the Personas Plus extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)?
Firefox only keeps the last 8 installed personas by default.

Is there a way to prevent photos from displaying larger than resolution allows?

When I display a small photo (e.g. 2"x3") on the iMac, the photo is dispalyed that size. However, on the iPad, the photo is enlarged to the full screen size and it is so pixellated that it is garbage. I have been pasting the small photo into a larger background with Photoshop (since I don't see a way to do it with Photoshop) so it displays the right size, but there must be a better way.

None that I know of. 1024×1024 is the smallest size that will allow the image to be displayed without upsizing on the display.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple 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

Uploading my site to Adobe Business Catalyst and I noticed that it turns all my text into images? Why does it do that and is there a way to prevent it from happening?

I don't mind that Muse does this upon uploading my website, but once my text becomes an image on my site, it creates a light halo around my text making it fuzzy. Is there a way to prevent Muse from changing my text into images?

Hello,
I believe you are using System fonts for the text in the site. I would suggest you to use either Web safe fonts or use self hosted font options.
Please refer to the links below to understand how to work with them.
