I just installed the Front Row update. When I view photos through Front Row, the first album selection that comes up is "Shared Photos" - I set iphoto NOT to look for shared photos. I also set the slideshow NOT to play music. But every time I quit and then re-open iPhoto. those settings are not held - it says to look for shared photos and to play music...
How do I get the settings in iPhoto to stick?

HappySwitcher,
try the following:
Quit iPhoto if it is running.
In your user directory there is folder named "Library". Inside the Library Folder there is a folder called "Preferences". Inside this preference folder there is a file named "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" .
Do the following, click on the name of this file and change it to "com.apple.iPoto.plist" or anything else different than iPhoto.
Now launch iPhoto and adjust your settings.
See if they "stick", if so, you can trash the file whose name you changed. If not try running permissions and repeating the process.
Check back if it does not work.

  • Permissions error while trying to install the Front Row update.

    What would be the cause of this?

    What error? Did you try via an admin account? Using Software Update? Manually downloading and installing? Details, please.

  • TS3899 I just installed the latest software update on my iPhone this weekend (9/22/12), and now I can't get email. I've restarted and closed all my apps to no avail. I'm able to get email on my laptop, so it's not a problem with my provider. Any ideas?

    Originally we were getting the error that the phone could not connect. Then, after deleting the account multiple times and re-adding it again, the error message CHANGED to having to log in to Yahoo and authorize.
    When we went to Yahoo in a regular browser and logged in there was an alert telling us about connection attempts so it disabled mobile/iphone connectivity. It required that we change our password FIRST.
    Then, we went in to Manage Apps and Webpages and saw that iPhone was not there but Facebook was.
    After all of this went back to the phone and deleted then re-added the account again and SUCCESS!
    It now also shows up on the Yahoo Manage Apps and Webpages.
    Hope this helps someone else. Please consider giving me points if it does or like the post.

  • I just installed the latest Security update and now I can't open iPhoto. I keep getting a message that it quit unexpectedly because of a problem with the scene kit plugin. I have no access to my photos.

    I just installed the latest security update and now I cannot access iPhoto. I keep getting a message that it quit unexpectedly due to some conflict with the Scene Kit plugin.

    Probably the reboot used to log into the Guest account and then your account again fixed the problem.  If often will.

  • I just installed the most recent update. Now Firefox tries to start and then locks up.

    I just installed the most recent update. Firefox starts to load and then locks up. Cannot get homepage to load or go to any other websites.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

  • I ran the update for the newest version of Numbers.  Now I cannot open some of my spreadsheets.  When I try I get a drop down box that says I need a newer version of Numbers!!!!  I have just installed the newest Numbers update.  Any suggestions?

    I ran the latest Numbers update and now I cannot open several of the Numbers files I created and saved previously.  When I try, a box appears that says I need to update to a newer version of Numbers.  I ALREADY updated to the newest version!!!!  Any suggestions?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you upgraded Numbers to the most recent version, the Mac App Store kept the old version in case you need it in the future. Your problem is that you are opening the old version by mistake instead of the new one.
    To fix this, open a Finder window, select Applications in the sidebar and drag the new Numbers version (the one with the new icon) to the Dock. By doing this, you can access to the new Numbers version easily, so you will not open the old version by mistake anymore. Also, I recommend you to open the documents after opening Numbers. The same applies for all other iWork applications.
    If you want, you can remove the old Numbers version, but some users have complained about the lack of features of the new Numbers version. Apple will add more features in the future. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • I just installed the iOS 7 update and now my phone won't turn on.

    I went to install the automatic update for my phone. Now it won't turn on. What do I do?

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

  • Just installed the latest Yosemite update and though I hv wifi connectivity, I can't connect to the App store or Dropbox.  Any solutions?

    I've got wifi, but got error messages that say that there's no internet connection when I try to connect to the App Store.  Also, Dropbox has the same issues with not being able to connect.  ???

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Have just installed the latest Firefox update (4.01) and since doing so some Face book games such as Zooma are slow and have a drag effect...I never had this problem with 3.6...any suggestions welcome

    This problem has only occured since installing 4.01 today so I don not think my system is at fault

    Well, that's pretty made my decision final. I'm ditching firefox for good. The only reason I was willing to use it at all, was because of Ad block. I already tried uninstalling, disabling add ons, like I mentioned previously. The whole proceeding with Firefox safe mode thing sounds like way too much trouble than it's worth. Since I already have Safari Browser, that came with my Macbook, and I need Chrome Browser for using Blogger, I'm uninstalling Firefox and I'll just use those two. Chrome Browser annoys me enough of the time that I don't want to use it as my primary browser. Safari is fairly good though, especially if I only use it occasionally, that means if runs very quickly. Thanks for the advice. It's too bad. When I started using Firefox about 4 years ago, I loved it. Now it drives me absolutely crazy. I'll just start gathering all my passwords that are stored in Firefox and then uninstall it.

  • I just installed the new iTunes update and now 10.6.8 cannot open iTunes.

    No other operating, booting or recognition issues.

    Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

  • Problem when installing the Apple Security update 2008-02

    I just installed the Apple Security update 2008-02 in my server and now it's giving me problems!
    It strips off the server's settings pane (where you can see the serial number) in Server Admin and keeps the "Sharing" button in the Workgroup Manager thus preventing me to do change file permissions!
    I also cannot remotely administer it with server admin 10.5 as it says: "Unable to proceed. The server has returned bad version information and can't be administered with server admin right now."
    What the * happened??
    Please help! (crying)

    Yes.
    Anyway, I have resolved the issue. I just re-installed the the Mac OS X Server 10.4.11 combo update and everything goes back to normal.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Since I downloaded the latest PSE12 update, when I download images from my camera into Organizer on my iMac, the application freezes.

    Since I installed the latest PSE12 update, when I download images from my camera into Organizer on my iMac, the application freezes.  If I "force quit" then it seems to download them, but will do nothing else, including verifying and deleting the images from my camera.  It worked fine prior to the update.

    Dear Steve--
        You are the man--a true Apple genius. Your suggestion worked.
        Thanks you so much.

    i just tried to install the 11.4 update (or whichever one is the most recent update as of 1/26/2014) and when it failed i tried to install manually and now whenever i try to use it, i get the following error: "The application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." Right after i click ok i then get this error: "Itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall Itunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)." I tried to uninstall Itunes and then reinstall the 11.03 version but that didnt work either. I want to know if i copy all of the music in my itunes folder to an external without consolidating can i still transfer all my itunes music from my current windows xp pc to a brand new one and have my current itunes library in my new pc? Basically i just want to know 3 things: What exactly does consolidating the itunes library do? Can i copy, paste, and transfer my itunes library to an external and from there to a new pc? Will i be able to transfer my itunes library without consolidating the files?

    I have found a temporary solution, allowing the previous version of iTunes (v. 11.1.3 (x64) in my case) to be re-installed.  It will allow you to re-establish use of iTunes until the Apple software engineers fix the most recent disasterous upgrade (v. 11.1.4).  Please see and follow the procedure in the following article:http://smallbusiness.chron.com/reverting-previous-version-itunes-32590.html   The previous version works beautifully.

  • Help I just installed the latest update on my IPhone4 and now I can't open any of my stored podcasts. When I hit the podcast icon, the screen goes white for a second and the goes back to the opening page with all the icons. What happened?

    Help! I just installed the latest update on my IPhone 4 and now I can't access my podcasts. When I hit the podcast I on, the screen goes blank for a second and then opens to the home screen with all my icons. What happened?

    Try a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously you see the Apple logo and then release.
