I am wondering if OS X Yosemite would allow me to play .avi files?
Will OS X Yosemite 10:10 support and let me view .avi files?
It depends on the codecs inside the file. If it’s possible to play a specific AVI on the Mac, VLC will probably be able to play it.

Files on my computer. I upgraded the DNG file. I am using Photoshop 6. This camera takes pretty good pictures in JPG. but I would love to have the RWL files open.
Does anyone have any idea of what works?Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
Exactly what was not right?
Most likely a hardware problem causing corruption in the transfer of files from SD card to your computer. It could be the SD card itself, card reader, hard disk or memory.
Side issue:
Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
why don't you save yourself a step and import directly to the external HD (and thus also produce one less place where file corruption can happen)? -
I am in the market for a TV media player. I have a lot of videos and photos on an external HDD and i would love to be able to play them on my big new TV. I have been thinking about buying a "Buffalo home theatre" or a "WD TV Live". BUT..... I would like to stick to my Apple products and so was wondering if ...
a) You can plug a HDD into an Apple Airport Extreme. I currently have an Airport Express but want to upgrade.
b) If i plug a HDD into an Apple Airport Extreme, would I then be able to Access the avi and mkv files from my HDD and play them through Apple TV.
Does that make sense?
I wish the apple TV had a usb port, that would solve my problem.Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can plug a drive into an extreme, but the Apple TV will not play AVI (with noted exception) or mkv files.
H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

I thought Yosemite would allow iMac to text non-iphone users.
I updated my iMac with Yosemite and everything is working well. However, I am unable to use the Messages app to text non-iphone users. According to the Apple page that describes the new Yosemite features it says:
SMS
More ways to get your message across.
With OS X Yosemite and an iPhone running iOS 8, you can send and receive SMS text messages right from your Mac. So when friends text you — regardless of what phone they have — you can respond from your Mac or your iPhone, whichever is closest.2 All the messages that appear on your iPhone now appear on your Mac, too, so your conversation is up to date on all your devices. You can also start an SMS or iMessage conversation on your Mac by clicking a phone number in Safari, Contacts, Calendar, or Spotlight.
I've tried clicking on the intended recipient's number in my Contacts, and typing the number in manually, but I get the message "Your message could not be sent. XXXXXXXXXX is not registered with iMessage." Does anyone have any suggestions?I followed all of the directions and was able to get FaceTime on my MacBook Pro to make a phone call through my iPhone 5S in close proximity. But, I cannot get Messages on my MacBook Pro to send a SMS text via my iPhone 5S. I cannot believe that it only works with an iPhone 6! That would be a HUGE disappointment!

Any ideas on how to get this old game working on the newer model computer? The message I get is that it wont run it "because Classic environment is no longer supported".
You could look into Sheepshaver which supports older OS versions but I hear can be very tricky to install. you may also find that a game will not work on it because games often want to control the hardware directly and an OS7 game will have absolutely no idea how to run your computer. Frequently it is recommended you just buy an old Mac capable of running OS7.
Even if you had a Classic-capable computer it is still quite possible it would not run an OS7 game. I found many of my OS7 games stopped working even when I ran a computer actually booted to OS9.
Which game is this? Some old favorites are being re-released for OSX, e.g. Solarian.
By the way, it would be better to post this in the correct forum ((probably Snow Leopard) since this forum is intended for questions about how to use this web site. -
I know AppleTV does have a youtube feature. But I used to be able to search youtube videos on my phone and click on the airplay icon on my phone to watch the videos on my tv via Apple Tv. Now with iOS6 the video from youtube still plays on my phone and the audio plays on the tv via AppleTV.
Why is it all upgrades have issues, aren't these things tested?????After the ios 6 upgrade I found the only what to use airplay to watch you videos is to use either safari or the video app. The Youtube app doesn't work properly on any apple product. My app on my apple tv wont read the google information anymore so I dont have the playlists, history or any other such thing. You can use mirroring as well but it is a pain in the back side to use and looks like crap.

QuickTime on Yosemite wants but can't convert .mov files
I have upgraded to Yosemite and wanted to watch a .mov file that worked fine on Snow Leopard but on Yosemite I get that QT wants to convert the file but then can't. An Error message gives me the opportunity to learn more. I don't learn any more. Does anyone know why QT on Yosemite can't read and play .move files??
Does anyone know why QT on Yosemite can't read and play .move files??
Under Yosemite and Mavericks, the QT X player is not allowed to access proprietary/third-party codecs installed by the user for playback. If you have not removed any codecs during the Yosemite upgrade, and assuming the codecs are QT 7 playback compatible, you can install and use the QT Player 7 for Mac OS X 10.6.3 or Later app (if not already installed on your system). This QT 7 player is compatible with Mac OS X v10.6.3 thru Yosemite and allows access to codecs for which a user has configured his or her system—assuming those codecs are compatible with the QT 7 player. (I.e., since the file played under Snow Leopard, chances are good that QT 7 can play it also under Yosemite.) Other possible options would be to play the file using a free third-party media player like VLC or use an app like HandBrake to convert your file to a QT X v10.4 player compatible file. (Oops! Once again too slow in typing a response.) -
When I used mavericks in a preview of a picture I could just press the icon that was a box with an arrow pointing up and that would allow me to share (message, email, Facebook, etc) the image. Now in Yosemite in preview if I click the box-arrow
Found my answer in another thread- this is what I did
GO to System Preferences > Users > Right Click on your Name > Advanced Options > and refresh your UUID
Restart your System and the widgets are all back
This solution worked fine for me! -
HI I WAS WONDERING IF THE NEW GARAGEBAND WOULD ERASE OR REPLACE MY CURRENT GARAGEBAND SOFTWARE, INVENTORY AND LOOPS, OR IS IT AN ADD ON TO MY CURRENT PLATFORM? IN OTHER WORDS WILL ANY THING CHANE WITH MY CURRENT GRAGEBAND SOFTWARE IF I MAKE THI UPDATE? THANKS - WP
What is your current GarageBand version?
Your profile signature says "OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)", but the newest GarageBand, version 10.0.2, requires Mavericks. Are you planning on upgrading from Mt. Lion to Mavericks?
The newest GarageBand 10.0.2 is very different from the earlier GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5.
Some features, like podcasts, are missing. The GUI layout is more like Logic than GarageBand, the effects can no longer be combined freely, but you have to use the predefined patches. But this version adds nice new features like Drummers or Arpeggiators. and not all of your audio units may be compatible.
If you upgrade to GarageBand 10.0, the new version can open your older projects, no problem. But once opened in GB 10.0, they will no longer work in GB '11.
The installer will not overwrite GB '11, but move it to a subfolder in Applications, and you can use both versions cuncurrently. They do not interfere and you can use GB '11 as before.

Hi, I'm a new Mac user and I want 10.8.2 but i can't get that unless I have i have 10.8.1 and I cant get that unless I have 10.8. Now I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link that would allow me to download this version?
Again, that's not a problem - if you purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it's been updated to 10.8.2 - and when there are other updates available, you can just download and install them as well.
Just go to the App Store and purchase and install ML. Then run Software Update (Apple menu) to see if there are any updates available for your machine. I keep my System Preferences>Software Update prefs set to check automatically -
Some people would rather check manually. No big deal, just buy it and install it.

I have iTunes 11.2.2, and I've recently made use of iTunes' "disc x of y" feature, instead of entering the disc number in the album title like I used to. I made this change because putting disc numbers in the album-title field makes the two discs appear as two separate albums, with the artwork appearing twice, which I didn't want. The downside of using the "disc x of y" feature, however, is that for double albums where the two discs have unique titles, rather than the default "disc one" and "disc two" -- say, for example, the Red Hot Chili Peppers' album Stadium Arcadium, where the discs are called "Jupiter" and "Mars" -- there is no way to label the disks with their unique titles and still keep them within one album entry. I don't want to put these titles in as a comment or anything like that either. What I'm really wondering is whether it is possible to write a script that would allow me to change where it reads "disc 1" to a unique title, at least within the album section of iTunes.
Certain tags are limited as to format. I am pretty sure the disc number field only allows numeric entries. You can send feedback to Apple suggesting changes in iTunes but since this is a somewhat unusual feature I doubt it will be high priority.

Why does the Yosemite Finder become unresponsive when moving a file within my USB Flash stick?
Why does the Yosemite Finder become unresponsive when moving a file within my USB Flash stick? I have to Relaunch the Finder to get it working again.
Background / other symptoms:
The Flash drive in question has been formatted HFS.
I get no error messages, including on the Console, and no sound indicators.
I can copy files, using the Finder, from a hard-drive to the usb flash drive with no problem.
Finder copying on this stick works just fine on my other Mac.
I can move files within another (FAT32-formatted) USB flash drive.
The quirky USB HFS Flash drive works fine on my other Mac.
Outside of the Finder, I can use mv just fine to move the files on the HFS flash drive.
If the HFS-formatted Flash drive were faulty, I would at least expect some sort of error in the Console app, but perhaps not from the Finder.Why does the Yosemite Finder become unresponsive when moving a file within my USB Flash stick? I have to Relaunch the Finder to get it working again.

I have upgraded Apple Aperture from version 2 to version 3 and I'm having a problem with the "Highlights and Shadows" adjustment. According to the user's manual, I should have access to an advanced disclosure triangle which would allow me to adjust mid contrast, colour, radius, high tonal width and low tonal width.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how to access this advanced section, I'd be most grateful.Hi David-
The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:

My Blu-Ray player has a USB input but it doesn't have an HDMI input. Can I connect my Apple TV to the Blu-Ray using an HDMI/ USB adapter? It would allow me to run the audio through my stereo. Thanks to all for your help.

If you can find such a thing. I really doubt that exists since USB is a data connector not a video connector.

When will Apple offer more than just THEIR brand of cases for the 6 Plus?
