I have been looking at the Mavericks OS comments.
Is it possible the people that have had problems are updating from older versions, such as 10.6. instead of the later 10.7..'s ?
And the speed of their internet would cause crashes and glitches in the program?
I would like to do the upgrade, but as I've had no issues with what I've got, I'm worried about installing the new operating system.
Any clues on why some have had terrible results and others love it?
I am currently using 10.6.8 and have a mid to slow ADSL connection.
Should I or should I not???
Actually, I have both the old Pages and Numbers (from iWork 09 retail install DVD) as well as the new stand alone, free to download, Pages and Numbers from the app store (free on new Macs or when you have the older retail version installed - the new version was offered automatically to me free of charge; you must have Mavericks installed). The Pages 4.3 (from iWork 09) works perfectly well with mavericks - I am using it since I've decided to ignore the new version for the time being.
You may have an older iWork version? Or possibly Appleworks? Those are no longer supported.
The new version of Pages has lost some functionalities, so, after testing it, I've decided to ignore it until Apple puts back some features. If you do use the new version, be advised that you cannot open a doc in the old version once you've changed it in the version. In any case, both version co-exist on my MBP; installing the new version will not "update" the old one - it is installed as a totally different version.
@ Lex Schelling: Sorry, I can't agree; when I first installed Lion>ML>Mavericks, my MBP was sluggish as he.. - and that was before I ever tried to do any video work. As soon as I doubled the RAM to 8 GB, things were suddenly smooth. The behavior didn't change with the OS upgrades even though Mavericks supposedly has better memory management; Apple sent a reply to my bug report explaining that the increased memory usage was expected due to the 64 bit architecture. My personal, unqualfied opinion: I don't think it's efficient memory management when kernel_task takes up to 1 GB continuously, leaving you with only 3 to work with or, put another way, using 3 GB when the only apps open are a browser and Mail. But, that's my personal (and, as I said, totally unqualified) opinion.

I have been looking at the Macbook pro.
I have been looking at the Macbook pro and on the UK website and its 999 pounds, then I saw it on the US website for 1199 dollars which converts to £772 so what the **** should i get it of the us website?
It would seem that you have discovered that like all manufactured goods these days, they generally cost more when bought in a country other than the original manufacturer's country of origin. Items produced in the US sell for more overseas in the UK due to UK import taxes and differences in currency exchange rates in the international markets. So the US website shows the price for US purchasers and the Apple UK website shows the price for UK residents.
Hope this helps -
I've been busy the past hour looking for the update for bookmarks so we can add a bookmark in multiple folders without having the first bookmark automatically being deleted when adding the same bookmark to a different bookmark folder.
There's no "update" for that, it's a matter of learning a different method of saving a bookmark that bypasses the feature which identifies duplicate bookmarks.
There 5 ways to save a new Bookmark in Firefox: <br />
1. {Ctrl + D} <br />
2. Right-click and select Bookmark this Page. <br />
3. Bookmarks > Bookmark this Page <br />
4. Double-click the Star that is on the right side of the Location bar. <br />
''4a. (A single-click on the Star will save the new Bookmark to the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.)'' <br />
'''''This last method will allow duplcates to be saved.''''' <br />
5. Left-click and drag the website image ''(Favicon)'' in the URL bar (or on the active tab) into the Sidebar view of Bookmarks {Ctrl + B} <br />
'''or''' to the Bookmarks menu bar item ''(the drop-down will open)'' and then onto the drop-down listing of your bookmarks and folder of bookmarks ''(folders will open)''<br />
'''or''' onto the Bookmarks Toolbar <br />- the new bookmark will be saved when you release the left mouse button
Firefox bookmarks have worked like this since Firefox 3.0 was released, back in June 2008. The [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/categorizing-bookmarks-make-them-easy-to-find?esab=a&s=bookmark&r=7&as=s Bookmarks Tags feature] was introduced in Firefox 3.0 to allow the user to categorize their bookmarks more easily than saving the same bookmark into separate folders. -

Am trying to find the Hunger game books but cannot located them on ibooks, there is one in Italian but I need English, how else can i find these books? even under the author they do not come up?
When you cannot find what you want at the iBookstore, the fix is to try one of the other ebook sources which also have free ereader apps for you device, like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, or Googlbooks.

I have been trying to download Maverick on to my 2012 MacAir. It gets to 996MB and stops. A message says there has been an error in the download and to go to purchases and try again. It's the same every time I try.
Any ideas?Hi Guys:-
If this SAME problems is effecting us all then suspect its not IPS problem as we all get problem at 995.6MB.
I would think that there is some kind of software conflict. If we all having this problem just think of how many users have the same but are not on this discussion board, bet you its 100s and 100s.
Not possible for me to visit store now but will monitor your responce's.
Good luck guys, lets make um give us a fix:- I will call them tomorrow and see what they say:- should point support to this Discussion page and they can answer us !
Cheers and good luck also -
How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension
First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

Is there any way to add chapter markers running Mavericks? Is there a reason they have been stripped out the new OSX?
Is there any way to add chapter markers running Mavericks? Is there a reason they have been stripped out the new OSX?
Depending on your choice of workflows, it appears you can still
1) Add chapter marks manually with QT 7 Pro,
2) Add chapter markers graphically using GarageBand,
3) Use a video editor to set chapter markers graphically,
4) Use a DVD conversion/burning app to set specific or add equi-interval chapter markers, or
5) Use a media/device player that adds playback only chapter makers when no chapter track is embedded within the file.
What kind of chapter markers are you referring to here? Mine are not "stripped out" during normal use but can be automatically removed during various conversion workflows. -
I am trying to download songs onto my PC it gets to about 85% downloaded and then freezes I have to turn off and restart but then I have been charged for the item but it is not available in my downloads can anyone help?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer. -
Whenever I try to open iPhoto, a message comes up saying that 148 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that have not been imported. It asks me if I want to import them and I say NO but then it places them in a recovered photo folder. I keep deleting the empty recovered photo files but it just keeps asking me every time I go to open iPhoto! I'd love to just get rid of the "found" photos (I can't open them anyway!)
How do I get rid of them so that I can just open iPhoto straight up without this?
LindaOpen your iPhoto Library package with the Finder.
Click to view full size
look for a folder titled Import or Importing and move it to the Desktop. Launch iPhoto to see if the message goes away. If there is no message check the contents of the Import folder to see if you want to keep any of those image files (usually they have not been imported into iPhoto). If you want to keep them then drag the folder into the open iPhoto window to import.

Hi all
So I have lightroom on both my laptop and desktop and sync catalog through google drive.
I have been working on the desktop all week on edits of high res scan in lightroom.
Today i opened the program to find everything i have done for a week isn't there.
Help.
I feel it has synced to the last time i opened on my laptop and lost what ive on on the desktop.
any help much appreciated.
pI have no idea what happened, why you are seeing what you are seeing.
My only guess at finding the missing work is to look under File->Open Recent on both computers.
I do know that if you aren't making regular backups of your catalog file, and relying on synchronizing catalogs from one computer to another via the cloud, you are living very dangerously, and now you are possibly going to pay the consequences of not making regular backups. -
I transferred my iPhoto FACES to my mini iPad and: (a) they are not in the alphabetical order I had them in, (b) some of the FACES have been deleted, (c) the EVENTS I checked off in iTunes do not all appear in the iPad?
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there.
Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A Finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache. Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

I have been working on the same numbers file for the past few weeks. The last time I opened it was 1 week ago. Today when I tried to open it I am unable and getting a message that the file is invalid and the index.xml file is missing.
Hi Tracie,
I upgraded to Maverick OS X 10.9.5, numbers spreadsheet is saved. Upon re-opening, it appears to be frozen, a warning "file is invalid as index.xml file is missing". I checked, and the file is not "locked". This appears to occur only with using the new numbers app. When I open previous spreadsheets from old iWorks, no such problem occurs.
How did you resolve your problem?
Would appreciate any help here.
Thanks,
Deehay
