I have a large number of documents dating back from the 1940's that I need to preserve for research,

I am scanning the documents into PDF format and then uploading them to Adobe Acrobat for conversion in to a searchable format e.g. Word of RTF but when I download them there are literally hundreds of mistakes, waht can I do to create better searchabled copies please

Dear Hisami,
I have scanned in at the highest resolution possible 600 dpi and the result is still very poor, I have attached both the scanned document and the converted copy.
What else can I do, are there any options that I can select?
Thank you,
Brian

Unfortunately, unless you know the Apple ID, there is absolutely nothing that can be done, you cannot use your mobile device. You may be able to find your Apple ID at Look up your old and forgotten Apple ID

There is your problem. DVDs that ship with a Mac are machine specific. You will need to purchase a retail copy of the DVD $29.

Might be corrupted preferences ..
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.desktop.plist file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac and try changing the desktop photo.

How to remove large number of "sent" but still keep them available in case I need to search for something?

Over several years, I have accumulated some 1400 messages in the SENT folder.
Lately my Thunderbird is taking a long time for some actions that used to be instant, like selecting another message to read or delet.
I regularly remove incoming messages to keep the in-box under 300, and I have almost nothing in the other folders.
I tried changing the "local folders" to a different directory, but when I do that, all the old "sent" messages become un-available for searching and potentially continuing a conversation.
Is there a way to move the large number of "sent" messages from the "local folders" but still keep them available for access from within Thunderbird, in case I need something from past chains of replies?

I have two small charges on my credit card from the itunes store. I tried to call for answers as to what they were for. A recording told me to go to this website and i still can not find the items charged anywhere.

I have two small charges on my credit card from iTunes store and I would like to find out what they are. The number listed is a recording and tells me to come to the website for answers. There is no sign of any purcases in my itunes store. Where can I get a person to talk to from I tunes? Has any one had this happen to them?

Look at you purchase history.
Open itunes, click on your name in the top right corner and go to your account and look.
BTW, there is no telephone support for itunes at all.

Help help help help. I just mistakenly deleted a Note from the Note App that I need. I don't use iCloud. The only place I have the Note app is on my iPad and my iPod. What can I do? Is there any help for this?

Help help help.
I just deleted a note from the Notes App form my ipad3. I don't use iCloud. The only place this note was is my iPod and iPad. Is there any possible way to recover this note?????
Thanks in advance

Thank you sberman, yes the first thing I did was check my iPod. Instant synching works great between the iPad and iPod, so it was deleted there as well. On both devices I have my Notes account to the same account.
I ashamedly have not synched to iTunes for ages. After I calmed down I realized that most of the info on that deleted Note I had copied and pasted from an excel file in November. I'm in the process of doing that again, and am only out the recent info.

All photos in my icloud file on my pc have a padlock icon. How do I unlock the padlock so that I can move the photos to other applications or attachments?

All photos in my icloud file on my pc have a padlock icon. How do I unlock the photos so that I can upload/download for other applications? Please help!?

Create main folder e.g. Folder A, then sub-folders inside A e.g. B, C, D and have your Photos in B, C, D.
In iTunes Sync, click your device on the left Pane, then on right pane select "Photo" tab.
Make sure Sync photo box is checked, then select folder A, then All folders box within the selection.
Click Apply or Sync button at the lower right window.
you will have B,C,D folders under Albums.

I have a large number of PDFs documents stored on a windows pcthat I would like to access on my iPad mini even when not cBooking referenceonnected to a network.

i have a large number of PDFs documents stored on a windows pc that I would like to access on my iPad mini even when not connected to a network. Does anyone know a solution. Eg maybe card reader and a app.

Those devices have mixed results depending on the application. If the application does not support the device, then you are out of luck. There is no file manager in IOS to allow you to move files between folders because there are no folders that you can access. An app has to specifically support a storage location to access files.
It's not that bad. The app has to have the ability to accept data from another app. The latest memory dongles come with an ios app to access the external storage. You then transfer the pdf from dongle's app to your app. If your app can accept data from dropbox, it will be able to accept data from the memory dongle app.

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter. If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
How large a date change are you putting in? iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time. If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
If that is not the case:
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
Let me know the results.

At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library. When I try to move a PDF file to iBooks the system works for a while...sometimes the file appears and than disappears....sometimes the file never appears. Is ther some limit to the number of books or total storage used in IBooks? Thanks....

Hi jybravo70,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you may be experiencing issues on your non iOS 8 devices because iOS 8 is required to set up or join a Family Sharing group.
The following information is located in the print at the bottom of the article.
Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing.
Have a great day,
Joe

I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

I have a large number of photos I'd like to delete from my ipad 2 however from reading previous comments it seems I have to unsync from the original source computer. I'm in another country now and don't have access to it. Is there another way?

You should be able to do this via the iPad directly. Open the Photos application and the forward arrow, then select all of the photos you want to delete and click the red delete button.

Hi, I have a large number of products in one column and prices of the products in another. Most prices are different. I want to know if it is possible to increase all of the prices by 5% or 10% etc. Hope someone can help. From Stiffy

Hi, This is my first time I hope someone can help.
I am working with numbers and I have a large number of products in one column and the relevent prices in another. All the prices are different and I want to increase the price of everything by 5% or 10% etc. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance
Stiffy123

Ad a new, temporary column (or one you can hide when not using). Let's say the current Prices are in column C and the new column is D.
you can inflate the prices in column C by 5% by entering the formula in the first cell of column D as:
=C2*105%
likes this:
to fill down, select D2, then copy, then select the D3 thru the end of the column, then paste. Now select C2 thru the end of column C, now paste over the existing values using the menu item "Edit > Paste Values"
you can now hide column D until you need to use it again.

Archive the contacts you have in Address book, then delete them, they will be removed from iCloud as well. Restore the archive
