I had iPhoto as part of iLife 11. I recently did an erase and install on my Macbook Air and without a CD drive I'm unable to reinstall. How can I install without having to repurchase all of the apps?

Do you have access to another Mac with a disk drive? If so you can do it in one of two ways:
1 - on the Mac with the optical drive launch Disk Utility and make a disk image of the iLife 11 disk. Connect the two Macs together and transfer the disk image to your MacBook Air. Mount the disk image and install from it. I have my iLife disks saved that way for quick and easy reinstall when necessary.
2 - connect the two Mac together so you can access the MBA from the Mac with the disk drive. Insert the iLife disk, and install from the second Mac to the MBA.

How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in?

How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in? This application must be in Lab View 8.

you mean something like this (see below)?
Now you may have to implement code to check if the destination folder exists and to create it, etc. But if you use the Front Panel Control to select the destination folder, it should be okay.
Not the best implementation, mind you but you'll get the idea..

I have Outlook installed on my MacBook Air and it doesn't sync with my Ipad mini or my iPhone 4S.

I have Outlook installed on my MacBook Air and it doesn't sync with my iPad mini or iPhone 4S when I delete a message. However, when I delete a message on either the iPad mini or iPhone, the message deletes on the MacBook Air.

Ok, I feel stupid. I just had to adjust the resolution and it's fine. Sorry to bother everyone!

HT1449 After moving music and movies from my MacBook Air to an external hard drive, do I create a new iTunes music and media folder on my computer then add more music and movies, then will I be able to move the computer music/media to the hard drive musci

I need to move the music and movies from my MacBook Air (original) to an external hard drive, after I do this, do I create a new music folder and media folder on my computer to load music/movies in via the dedicatd external drive and then would I be able to move the newly imported to the external drive which would be my main site of storage?

No, do it all in one go and henceforth only use the library located on the external drive.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

How can we turn on/turn off diagnostic data to the App Developers?

Hi, we all know when you launch an app say Apple Maps or Google Drive, it will ask you a question like, "Would you like to send anoumous data to (the app developer) to help us improving the customer experience?"
So, some of us decided to turn it off/on when we see the message, but it is not clear to me how we can reverse the decision later on.
Anyone can help? Do we have such option? Thanks.

Yes. You can assign individual audio tracks in the same way as you would do with language versions.
The user manual explains it clearly.

How can I move some files (but not all) in the photostream folder on my PC to another folder on the PC?

I have photostream set up on my PC and all photos in both mine and shared photostreams are successfully being synced to my PC automatically. However, my goal is to navigate to the photostreams on my PC and be able to move them and edit the photos with other software I have. I'd like to move more one at a time as I have 100's. This would help me better sort them as well as free up some much needed space on my iCloud account as I don't need all these photos available at all times, but also don't want to lose them. Is there a way that I can do this? I really appreciate any help I can get.

Your my photo stream folder should operate the same way other folders do. First go to the iCloud control panel for Windows and click Options next to Photo Stream. Here, note you photo steam location (listed at the bottom). Navigate to the photo stream folder at that location, then open the my photo stream folder inside. Right-click on the my photo stream folder, select copy, navigate to a location of your choice, then right-click and select paste. Click on the copied folder, press your F2 key and rename it something like Photo Stream Backup. Then you should be all set.

How can i buy a second copy of Lion from the App store?

I have a number of Macs at home. one is a 8 core Nehalem running 10.6.8 I tried a number of time to buy a copy of Lion to install and it will not let me, it says I have already installed it (i have but on another computer) I talked to the Genius' at the local Apple store and he told me I could buy it for $69 on a USB stick and install it. I pointed out to him that if the app store was working correctly I could get it for $29, at that point he had no more genius answers other than "call Apple"
I know i can take my download from the first purchase and install on my second system and everything will work, but I want to stay legal and buy the second copy(for $29.99)any suggestions other than "Call Apple" ?

When you say "Authorized" you mean in the sense of Itunes Store Authorized? if so the system in Question is authorized it is my primary Workstation and was waiting until iCloud came out to update to Lion. My MBP , and 2006 MP are all running Lion and are part of the 5 systems "authorized". I did not run into this issue with either the MBP or the MP when i installed and I bought two copies at the same time on my the first day Lion was available.
Do you know the mechanism with which the App Store tracks purchases on different computers prior to iCloud coming out?
once again thanks for your response

How do I put all my music and pictures from my macbook air to an external hard drive ?

My macbook air is already full - I transfered everything from my desktop as soon as I got home with my new laptop. As it is already full, I would like to put all my pictures and all my music on a external hard drive. I am unsure how to do that. I've 'slide' the file to the external hard drive, but now, my computer is bizarre. If I'm in iphoto, I can see photos, but they then dissapear, etc. It's just bizarre and I feel this is not normal.

To transfer your music to an external drive see this knowledgebase article from Apple. For iPhoto, see this article. This is doable but the downsides are (1) you can only use iTunes or iPhoto when you are connected to your external drive. If you forget and launch the program without the drive connected you'll see nothing. Even worse, if you aren't careful (2) you might forget and download photos or music while the external drive isn't connected and then you have a mess.

How can i prevent checkboxes from resetting when shutting down the app?

Hi, i'm trying to make an app for a coin database.
Below a photo of the coin i put a checkbox or a switch to indicate what i have.
When closing and reopening the app, all the checkboxes or switches are unchecked.
Is there any way to let the app remember what was checked or unchecked.
Thnx.

Are you using a gallery to display your coins? If so, this is what you'll need to do:
Part 1
1. Use a Collect function when the Checkbox is checked (and a RemoveIf function when the checkbox is unchecked.)
2. SaveData function to save the data. This can be done when the checkbox is checked. Use a semi-colon to string functions together.
Example (in the OnChecked):
Collect (myCoins, {ID: CountRows(myCoins) +1, CoinName: txtMyCoin!Text, IsChecked: "true"}); SaveData(myCoins, "MyCoins")
--> This code may not be 100% correct as I'm not on a computer with Siena while I'm writing this but it should be enough to get you started I hope.
Part 2
1. Use the LoadData function when you need the information to be loaded - usually in the OnVisible of a page.
2. In the Default of the checkbox (in your Gallery) add this code: If(ThisItem!IsChecked = "true", true)
--> Again, I'm not in front of my computer with Siena so I may be off here. I'll edit this post if I'm way off.
I hope this gives you a good start. I can provide better examples if this isn't working for you.
FYI - The code will look different if you're not using a gallery. Hopefully you are as it sounds like the way to go in what you have in your example.

How can I organize video clips that are all over the place???

I have clip everywhere. It is horrible. I can't even tell what I have. iMovie can't access video not in the "library" which is iPhoto but iPhoto won't accept my earlier video... ie quicktime.mov. What in the world can I do to get ALL my video clips in one place sorted by year, viewable and accessible to iMovie?
HELP!

Thanks for your help, Terence.
Before I begin I am somewhat daunted by the contents of my Pictures folder, which contains, among other items, a number of folders named 2002 to 2006 and folders called Modified, Originals and Data which also contain year-named folders.
I think I can guess the nature of Originals and Modified but is there a quick way of spotting any duplication before bundling folders or files into a custom folder?
And at the end of the exercise, is there a way of preserving the chronological order of folders/photos as currently viewed in the iPhoto browser?

How can i update the phone number associated with my iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air?

I recently moved to the US from Canada and have a new US #. I have updated the phone number on my apple ID but the iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air are still connected to my old Canadian phone number. How can I update this? Thanks so much!

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
          Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
          Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
          Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test.
