What are you using to search? You should be able to search any drive in from the Finder. If you're having trouble, try "EasyFind" from the App Store (free). You can search any volumes with it.

    I have forgot my Iphone passcode. Itunes will not let me restore it, i do not have icloude,or find my iphone,and the closest itunes store is 4 hours away how can i unlock, or reset my phone?

    Try this:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • I have a apple ibook G4 and it will not let me download nothing what can i do about this

    My Ibook G4 will not let me download nothing

    Could you describe the applications, programs, items, or content it won't download?
    Given you state the iBook G4 with OS X 10.4.11 Tiger installed, is a dated and obsoleted system, the newest OS X version it could use would be from a retail Leopard OS X 10.5 DVD, then updated with a download file to 10.5.8 from Software Updates. With that (the highest version of OS X any PowerPC based G3/G4/G5 can run) a few more options are available, given support for that newer system (now also not actively upgraded) was from a more recent era and a few browsers, a later but not new Flash plugin, and a few items are still available.
    You can get a few later browsers that will work OK in OS X 10.4.11, one is TenFourFox, based on FireFox from Mozilla code; another is iCab, works free -- but asks you to buy license. Others for older PowerPC Macs seem to only support Leopard 10.5.8, such as SeaMonkeyPPC. The coding behind these is different so the people who volunteered to rebuild workable browsers have tried to ecomomize, yet still help us older system and hardware users be able to go online. These browser builds may have limits online, as the web has newer content and some items may not work in the older code. But they do OK. I use the above browsers, as the Safari browser is not supported and sees no later security updates. I have it too.
    If you are trying to get a later OS X system, you could only get & use Leopard 10.5(.8) in retail DVD, perhaps from Apple Sales Support for a fee, if available; as a replacement or upgrade. Or look online for retail and not computer-specific install discs; as those grey label discs from other computers won't work in a different series.
    You may be able to find a fair value in a previously owned older MacBook, some companies offer them repaired and running, with a limited guaranty of a sort. See OWC online for used computers, or a company such as wegenermedia, who repairs computers, has parts, and some inventory online. Or if you want a later model and are in the market, the Apple special deals page for refurbished models can be found from the online Store page, in the US.
    Hopefully you can find what you need.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    I have adobe Premiere Elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or have it fade in or out. I can move the yellow line all the way down till the volume reads -0.0, but the sound is still there on playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that graphs volume takes a sharp raise or dip at the beginning or end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What am I doing wrong?

    rickeyt
    Thanks for the reply. Great news about the volume adjusts.
    Now about those fades for the volume. How are you doing that?
    1. Right click the Timeline video audio and select Fade and then
    see the Fade options (I had a video with audio file, so I saw the choices as shown in the screenshot)
    2. You can also create two volume keyframes at each end of the Timeline audio clip rubberband (orange line that goes horizontally across the middle of the audio clip). At the position of the Timeline Indicator, click the Add/Remove Keyframe icon, and then with the mouse cursor position the white dots (volume keyframes) to achieve the Fade In and Fade Out audio. In the screenshot below I have moved the Timeline Indicator so that you could better see the white dots (volume keyframes).
    Please let us know if any of the above works for you with regard to the audio fades.
    Thank you.

  • I want to install idvd 6 from an install disc.  I have idvd 7 already installed.  It will not let me because of the later installed version.  Is there a way to install the earlier version?

    I want to install idvd 6 from an install disc.  I have idvd 7 already installed.  It will not let me because of the later installed version.  Is there a way to install the earlier version?

    Delete of hide the existing iDVD application T and all files with "iDVD" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iDVD from the disk it came on originally.

  • I have a MacBook Pro, and will not let me open a file because it says I do not have permission.  How do I fix this?

    I have a MacBook Pro and it will not let me open a file that I have used several times in the past because it says that I do not have permission to use it.  How do I fix this?

    Oops, my bad.  The repair disk permissions in Disk Utility doesn't actually fix the User home folders.  To do that boot into the recovery partition and when the recovery desktop appears select Utilities -> Terminal. Enter “resetpassword” and press return - don't worry you're not actually going to reset your password!
    Ensure that your username is selected from the “Select user account” menu, then under “Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs” click the “Reset” button.
    Click on the Apple menu and restart your computer.

    For some reason this worked for me. I went into my account and changed my first name, maybe it causes itunes to reset. What ever it does my itunes works now.

    Yep, it does matter. You won't be able to update or get anything until this is fixed. Contact iTunes support to see what's wrong:

    Hello Tholc
    The reason for that is the screen motion that is enabled. With certain photos and how they were taken, they will be zoomed in so that there is no black space on the photo.
