I am running Yosemite 10.10.1 and I cannot find my screen shots. They used to save to my desktop.

Please could you tell me where my screen shots are stored. when i use cmd+ctrl+shift+3 i hear the capture sound, but cannot find the picture. where is it stored?

The default location is your Desktop. If they're not going there, you can choose any other location by running this command in the Terminal and restarting.
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location <path to the new location>
E.g., if you want them put into a subfolder named ScrnShts inside your user's Documents folder, the path (w/o brackets) would be:
/Users/"username"/Documents/ScrnShts
You have to substitute username for the actual username, w/o quotes, If the user's name was wootts, then the command would be:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location /Users/wootts/Documents/ScrnShts

  • Firefox is running somewhere on my computer and I cannot find it to get rid of it

    I had firefox 7 runnint. The IT people told me to use ff3.6. I downloaded 3.6 without uninstalling 7 and now firefox does not open at all. When I go to control panel to uninstall, it says it is running and I have to close it, but it is not running anywhere I can find it. When I try to install it, it says it is running but I dont know where it is.

    Start with item #2
    #close Firefox with File > Exit or "Firefox" button > Exit. (not with the "X" in upper right corner that just closes the Window). Give Firefox some time to close and
    #check that "firefox.exe" is finished via Windows 7 shortcut to WTM "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" in the "Processes" tab make sure that firefox.exe is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu. (don't check the "Applications" tab you need to check processes.)
    #proceed with the install

  • How do I permanently delete photos? I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 and have tried shift cmd delete and that doesn't work.

    How do I permanently delete photos? I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 and have tried shift cmd delete and that doesn't work.

    Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library
    1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
    2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin.  Then empty the trash bin as above.
    NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurences of that photo in the library.

    Ive tried from my PC, and ive tried from another which runs Vista. Both pc's were tried using firefox, IE and chrome,and both had firewalls off and pop-ups allowed completely (I basically turned off all security). I checked for 3rd party software which could also cause "blocks" but all 3rd party software were eliminated. I even tried stopping and restarting windows installer in "computer management; services, services". Still no luck..... This is the first time that ive struggled downloading Itunes. The reason im trying to download itunes is because im attempting to restore my iphone 4.....

  • I have a touchsmart running windows 7 and i cannot get my screen saver to work

    i have a touchsmart running windows 7 and i cannot get my screen saver to work

    Hello. You need to change the energy use setting that computer uses max it out. Then it will work just fine. My is touchsmart 600-1050. The computer was preset to use minimum amount of electricity when in idle. I changed all the setting to high. Now every thing runs just like a Windows XP version computer. Thats how I got my screen savors to work. I also upgraded my Windows 7 to Windows 7 Ultimate now I am able to run a lot more XP software. Test your pond screen saver make sure that working with windows open. That will tell you if it is a software issue if it doesn't work. That is the case then restore it from your D: drive.

  • I delete my safari, and I cannot find a safari to download, my system is Mac OS X 10.6.8

    I delete my safari, and I cannot find a safari to download, my system is Mac OS X 10.6.8
    If you have the software, can you sent to my e-mail :[email protected]  Thank you!

    Software update will only bring you up to the current level of the system you are using - you are at the maximum for Snow Leopard. To get Lion or higher you will have to go to the Mac App Store in Applications and purchase it there (Yosemite is free). You will need to check that your Mac meets the requirements and you should particularly note that PPC programs such as AppleWorks will not run in Lion or above.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Yosemite (10.10.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Yosemite are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Yosemite is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). Mountain Lion can be obtained the Online Apple Store. (Mavericks is no longer available.)
    If the problem is only with Safari and you are otherwise happy with Snow Leopard you could switch to FireFox (free) - the latest version of that will run in Snow Leopard.

  • I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio 7 and I cannot find the serial number. It's suppose to be in one of the installation booklets. I'm not sure which one. Could you help me?

    I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio that i bought back in 2008, and I cannot find the serial number. I think I barely remember running into this problem before with this application. When i use the installation disc it tells me that the serial number is located in one of the installation booklets, and it doesn't explain to me which one. Can you help me?
    Thank You!

    Once I open up my emails they disappear and I cannot find them anymore.  Is there a setting that I need to change to stop this from happening?

    Are you tapping any of the icons at the of the Mail app after opening them, or do they disappear without you doing anything ? And if you have more than one account on the iPad, does it happen on your other accounts as well ?

    I have downloaded the latest pages update on my iPad, but my iMac still has Pages version 4.3, and I cannot find out how to update it on my desktop. When I try to send something from my iPad pages via email to be opened on my desktop in Pages, it won't open in Pages. I get a message that it can't be opened because the version is too old. I sent the document as a PDF and it worked. But I want to be able to use Pages back and forth. HOw do I update the Pages version on my desktop iMac?

    The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
    If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
    Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it.

  • I've seen all the posts for fixing the wifi on the 4s, none of them work!  So, who can tell me why my iPhone 4S cannot find any wifi when it used to easily, and when it does it can never connect?

    I've seen all the posts for fixing the wifi on the 4s, none of them work!  So, who can tell me why my iPhone 4S cannot find any wifi when it used to find wifi, and when it does find a wifi network it can never connect?  You think apple would have a clue how to fix it!  Because turning the wifi on and off doesn't work, resorting network settings doesn't work, even restoring phone to factory default doesn't work...

    Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.
