  • I have a mac notebook and time capsule.  I got a message that my startup disc is almost full.  not sure where to go from here.  if i delete files will they still be on the time capsule.

    I have a Mac notebook and back up to time capsule. I  Got a message that my statup disc is almost full and I need to delete files.   Not sure which files it means and will i lose my files if they are saved on the time capsule.

    Visit
    The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on the hard drive. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
    About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
    Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
    So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
    Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.

  • Recently had my cd drive jam while using itunes, fixed that, but now itunes wont load, I get a message that: itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing, please reinstall itunes.  I have an HP notebook that came with itunes installed,

    Ok, have itunes on my HP notebook, cant reinstall itunes unless I have a mac serial number, and don't know how I get that?

    That's crazy. A serial number is not required.
    Are you certain you chose the correct version to download?

  • OneNote prevents my computer from going to sleep when I have a shared notebook open. Suggestions?

    Hello,
    The issue is that my computer will not go to sleep if I have OneNote opened with my shared notebook loaded.
    Background: I'm currently running Windows 8 Pro on a desktop machine with Office 2010 Home and Student installed. I log into the OS under my outlook.com internet account.  OneNote, which I always keep open, has my main
    notebook shared on my SkyDrive.
    Scenarios: The computer will go to sleep if I reboot the machine and do not open OneNote. The computer will go to sleep if I close my shared notebook, reboot the machine and open OneNote (with no notebooks open). The computer will go to sleep if I open
    OneNote with my shared notebook, close it, AND exit OneNote from the icon in the system tray.
    The scenarios I ran lead me to believe that OneNote is continuously polling my shared online notebook, thus preventing my computer from going to sleep. The is a regression from the behavior in Windows 7. Are there any configuration changes I can make to
    fix this?
    Thanks.

    Try modify the settings under:
    Control Panel --> Power Options --> Multimedia settings --> When sharing media to Allow the computer to sleep

  • Have new MacPro notebook, started to migrate things from Mac and want to stop midstream...how?, Have new MacPro notebook, started to migrate things from Mac and want to stop midstream...how?

    I have a new MacPro notebook, I started to migrate things from older Mac and want to stop mid stream, how do I do this?

    The only way to do that is by turning off your computer. However, this may create some problems in Mac OS X, so I recommend you to finish this migration. After migrating, if you don't want the migrated files, create a new user in System Preferences > Users & Groups, and delete the old user

  • I have a Mac notebook and it says it's connected to wifi, but when I try to connect to any search engine it does not.  What is causing it to not actually connect.  My pc connects no problem.

    It seems that all apple products used in my house at times will not connect to our wifi.  It's hit and miss.  It says I am connected, but when you try to connect to any search engine it does not.  I have disconnected and reconnected the power to the dsl provider and to our wifi units.  I have rebooted the computers.  I have reentered the password.  Still no connection.   We do not have connectivity issues with our PC products.  Anyone have any answers for me?

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I bought a new iMac this week but am struggling with the WiFi as it intermittently drops.  I have an HP notebook in the same room without any problems. It keeps on "looking for networks" it then connects and drops and starts again.

    I am connected to the internet but it keeps on dropping all the time, same with my email accounts.  Other hardware is running well without any issues.  I have gone through the Wi_Fi faultfinding tree but still the same.  I have also spoken to a Apple sales consultant in the store that suggested the software be reloaded which could be the case but I doubt.  Any ideas?????

    This may be a long shot or may not apply but check out this article: Remove Bluetooth PAN Helps Resolve Wi-Fi Conflict in OS X Yosemite?

  • I have a new notebook with windows8. When I open an image in photoshop it is not the correct color.

    The icon is the correct color and if I open the image in another app it is the correct color. How do i fix this?

    Good day!
    What is the »correct color« and how do you know that?
    In which other applications does the image look different?
    What are the Edit > Color Settings in Photoshop and does the image have an ICC profile embedded or not (you can set the Info Panel’s Panel Options to display »Image Profle«)?

  • I need a new product key for Windows 7. I have a HPG71 Notebook VR445AW

    I need to reload Windows7 and I do not have the disc.  The product key is faded and I cannot read it.  What do I do?

    Hi,
    Unfortunately neither HP or Microsoft will have any record of your Product Key - but you can order a set of Recovery Discs from HP.
    Order HP Recovery Discs.
    Using these discs to reinstall windows will not require you to enter a Product Key - activation will be automatic.
    A guide on using Recovery Discs to reinstall Windows can be seen on the following link.

  • IQ506-Loose wireless contact with Belkin N1 Router, unless I have my wireless notebook sitting

    next to the Touchsmart. Laptop has a SD card in it. 
    Was wondering if I should get a USB adapter to enhance the signal?  Or if there is someway I can adjust the system.  The laptop, gets a great signal strength, 5 out of 5 bars.  The Touchsmart 2 or 3 out of 5.
    Thanks for suggestions.
    Mark

    Have you updated the wireless card drivers??  HP has had many internally wired USB WLAN adapters show very weak signal due to a driver issue.  They have corrected these issues in most driver updates.  Make sure HP Update shows you are up to date.  I'm not sure which adapter the IQ506 uses, but this should be the first step.  If the driver is up to date, and you are still having signal issues, try changing the router's channel. 2,4 or 8 are usually best.  Some cards fend off WLAN interference better than others, so make sure you are on a clean channel.

  • I have an older notebook, a HP Pavillion zx 5000 which runs slower and sometimes the browser crashes

    I cannnot afford a new notebook for the time being but hope next year would be able to afford it, want to learn more about choices and costs.
