I set up Gmail IMAP but...what's with the To Do List?

Now every time I create a To Do item, it will be created under the category of "Gmail". I do not want that because it uses a different calender other than those I had already created (a new calender was also created under Gmail category in iCal, btw). I didn't find any option to disable it, or is there any?

Yes they do, but a lot of it is not needed. You can do a full reinstall (not too bad if you just bought your MB) and customize it to remove unwanted languages (I removed all of them - english is default) and any unwanted printer drivers (surely you don't use printers made by all those companies?). You can also remove any unwanted programs such as MS Office trial, maybe you don't use Garageband or iMovie HD for example. This saves a lot of space.
If you don't want to re-install you can remove the features manually, its just more hassle. To remove the Languages without reinstall, there is a program called Monolingual that will do this - i haven't used it so I don't know how good it is.
If you ever want to install Windows with bootcamp or parallels, these can eat through your HD space, so removing unwanted features is definitely useful in that case.

  • Cannot change setting in privacy from remember history to use custom settings for history. I can set in to change but on closing with the ok button thus closing the privacy tab, it then reverts back to remember history.

    I have been by a web sit that the cookies are disabled in the browser. on looking at the help on firefox help the instuction as i understand was to change the setting under the privacy tab ref history fromthe default setting of rember hhistory to use custom settings for history. I change the setting click ok but it reverts back to rember history. I just cannot change the setting.This also happend in the prevous version.

    To see History and Cookie settings in Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    You need to make at least one change to make "Use Custom settings" stay selected.
    If all history settings are the default then the History and Cookie setting revert to "Remember history" the next time you open Tools > Options > Privacy.
    So it looks that your cookie setting are already correct.

  • Nice MacBook, but what's with the HD?

    Yeah, I have a 60GB HD....but, when I click on the HD properties, it says 38.9 GB free. Do the programs actually take up that much room? Not that it's a problem, on my last computer I only used about 5GB, but I'm just wondering where it went. I am definately not going to return it though. Just wondering.

    I use iCloud. I have an iPhone, Apple laptop, and I recently bought an iPad. I can view the pictures I take on my cell phone on my iPad. But what about all the pictures I took on my phone before I bought my iPad? How do I view those on my iPad?

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

    Spotlight lists items and shows preview images.  BUT what about showing the path/location address of an item in my computer.
    Especially important if I've put the item in the wrong folder and what to locate it without multi-steps. iMac OS X 10.5 was more useful.
    Old OSX Spotlight function automatically displayed path/location within the machine:  e.g. desktop/folder/sub-folder/item.
    Can I make Spotlight show the path?

    Press option-command and the path is displayed at the bottom of the little preview window.  Press command-return and the enclosing folder opens. 

  • I am trying to set up iCloud keychain, but it keeps sending the verification code to my land line, even tho I have gone into my apple account and changed to my mobile phone

    I am trying to set up Icloud keychain, but it keeps sending the verification code to my land line (which I guess I entered back when I first got my MacBook).  I have gone into my apple account and changed the # to my mobile phone, but it continued to send it to the land line.  Probably is something simple, but I am not a techy!! 

    Hi,
    As regardss to the iChat and iChat Sharing categorisation you have used.
    In iChat 6 (lion) and Messages (Mountain Lion) the apps login to AIM and to Me.com
    The Login to Me.com allows AIM to verify the password to the iCloud issued names (@me.com and @iCloud.com)
    This "Dual" login also prevents the newer iCloud issued name from using this site
    (it has extra Privacy settings that iChat can't access for your AIM and Aim valid Accounts)
    Ignoring the @mac.com and MobileMe entries in the Add Account Screen in iChat and using the AIM one does not get around this issue.
    AIM and @mac.com names still work in older versions of iChat.
    The short answer is that iCloud issued Apple IDs do not work in iChat 5 or Earlier.

  • Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message so I must import messages first in order to use mail 4.5.  Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7.  Once it imports click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel? Now What?

    Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message that says in order to use the new features, I must import existing messages into the new version first in order to use mail 4.5.  Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7.  Once it imports I am to click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel of death and it also says you cannot use mail until the import is finished? Now What?

    Is Mail still "spinning"?  If it's been doing that for a while, I'd kill it, using either Activity Monitor or the OS X application picker.  Then relaunch Mail and see what happens.
    Two "by the ways":
    1) Your system details mention an PPC iMac.  Since a non-Intel Mac can't run OS X 10.6, you seem to have another Mac.  You might want to consider updating your system details.
    2) You seem to have been misled by the poor labeling of the message composition fields on this forum into trying to enter your entire post into the "subject" field.  In the future, just enter a summary of your post there and the main text into the field below it.

  • My husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help

    my husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help. that i pad is very much important to us,only the box i have here, what should i do if they dont allow to fixed it?

    You can try taking the iPad to an authorized service center in the Philippines:
    https://locate.apple.com/ph/en/
    but since the iPad sold in the UAE is specific to that country (the government there requires that Facetime be blocked), a Philippine service center may not be able to service your iPad. You can ask though. If they cannot help, then you would probably need to send the iPad back to the UAE for service.

    You don't say what version you are using, but LV6.1 added remote control
    of panels.
    If already using LV6.1, look it up in the help and try out the examples.

  • What's with the itunes software and Windows? I get the quicklinks box on the side but not the store stuff. that's blank white.\

    What's with the Itunes showing quicklinks box on the WIndows operating systems and all ? What's with the store not working on windows?

    Perhaps try the iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

    Many features have been lost in Numbers 3. You can send feedback to Apple with Menu > Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback.

    I enjoy running both versions of Numbers (Numbers 2 and Numbers 3) at the same time. They each have strengths and weaknesses.
    Numbers 3 did not replace your Numbers 2 (Numbers '09). Look in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. And enjoy.
