I have an untitled empty folder on the desktopthat will not be trashed.
I have an untitled empty folder on the desksktop. When I drag it to the trash the wastebasket icon turns to an arrow as if the empty folder is a disk. I am then asked if I want to force empty the trash- I do, but the empty folder is not deleted. Get info on the folder says the empty folder takes up 8 gig of space. Any ideas? Thanks!

I checked disk utility and it appears there are several items below the horizontal line on the left side. They are:
uninstall_flash player
Flash Player
flash player11_7r700
flash player
decryptedFile.dmg
None of these items appear on the desktop.
Does that mean anything? I did have a problem when I updtaed my Flash Player- I got a warning when in Firefox saying that Flash has crashed. It took me awhile to repair it by reverting to an older archived version of Flash. Could I have caused a problem while doing that? Is there any way to resolve the problem and delete the empty folder?

I want to change my Apple ID to what I have as my rescue ID. The system will not let me.Is there a way to do this?
You'll need to change/remove your rescue email address first :
1. Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
2. Click "Manage your account"
3. When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
4. Click Password & Security
5. You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
6. After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
7. Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field. -

Hey Pharryl,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Apple TV. If the device is unresponsive, follow these steps to restart it:
Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3180
If you can't restart your Apple TV because it's unresponsive, try the following:
- Hold down Menu and Down on the Apple Remote for six seconds, and then release when you see the indicator light on the Apple TV blink rapidly.
- Unplug the Apple TV power cord for three seconds, and then plug it back in.
Thanks,

My iTouch touch screen will not work. When I go to unlock it, to slide the thing on the bottom of the screen, it doesn't even seem to sense that the screen is being touched. Also, because of this, I cannot turn it off because the screen doesn't know I'm trying to slide the power off slide on the screen. I have tried holding the power button and the button on the bottom to reset it, but it didn't help. Is there anything else I could try?
If it still does it after a restore, you most likely have a bad screen digitizer. Contact Apple and get it repaired.

On some of the pages I wrote paragraphs about the trip and I did not put pictures on them
Did those pages have frames where photos were to be placed? If so try using a page layout that just has text without any photos on it.

My primary address is not acceptable, I have tried other addresses put but the process will not forward. I cannot go back, my phone now will not function. The Rescue Email address keeps appearing.

I have some loops from acid 5 which I have dragged in a folder to the loop browser. Some of them retain the folder name in the View: and some don't. I have also had some that seem to go in but I can't find them. If I try to add them again, I get a msg that they are already there. Where should I look?
It may be best to recreate the folder and the smart playlists from scratch.

I have a Folder with 10 Folders inside it, 8 of the Folders will not function when I use "show view options", they always default back the default. The "show view options" works on all my other Folders in my system, even on the first two of the Folder in question. How can I correct it? I have tried every thing I can think of, even deleting the Folders & reintalling them. For some strange reason the "show view options" only does not work on the last 8 Folders in the Folder in question.
Instead GarageBand recognize my keyboard and i can play normally, also, if it can help, those are the Audio and Midi Logic Preferences and the Controller Surfaces Setup with the keyboard connected :

hi when i open my application folder, all the application is shown in trash folder. when i click the application it says this app is in trash first move it out. and when i try to open through finder> go it says this file doesn't exist. can some1 plz help? how can i put all my application through application folder?
Something really odd is going on. In your first screen shot, I noticed that the Applications folder does not have the proper icon displayed in the side bar. Also, in the title bar it lists it as Applications 08-59-29-909.
Not sure where it's picking up that odd name, unless it's because it's still truly within the Trash folder.
Try this. In the Finder > Preferences > General > turn on "Always open folders in a new window". (I have a feeling you have the default setting with this off).
Now, in Finder > Go > move down and open the Applications Folder from there. Now open the folder where you see all your applications that you show in your screen shot, select all, and move them to this true appliactions folder.
This is what you should properly seeing (but with different apps listed):
See how the Applications folder has the icon of the letter A shaped with a pencil, ruler & pen. -
Problem on PC: During import, I can locate the sources folder however the photo do not display. Was working fine. All file types, Lightroom is no longer recognising the images to import, The panel that usually displays them remains empty. Try using backup versions, removing software that could conflict , still no joy, has anyone had this problem?
Did you follow this procedure?
Our iTunes guru Terence Devlin advises the following:
1. Quit iTunes
2. Drag the iTunes folder from your internal hd - located in ~/Music folder - to your external hd. DO NOT delete the original one from your internal hd... yet!
3. When the transfer is complete, press and hold the Option(alt) key and fire up iTunes.
4. A "Choose iTunes Library" window will come up. Click on the "Choose Library" button.
5. Navigate to where the iTunes folder is located in the external hd.
6. Within the iTunes folder, select the iTunes Library file and click Choose...
That's it. iTunes will now display all your playlists, songs, movies, podcasts etc. At this point, should you wish, you can delete the iTunes folder from the internal hd to free up space.
