I updated to snow leopard recently and when i turned on my macbook every file from pictures and music was on my desktop.. are these copies? is there an easy way to put them where they belong like music with itunes, pictures in iphoto and so on

Hi, I updated to snow leopard recently and when I turned my macbook back on icons from every file of pictures and music i have were all over my desktop
how can i get them to all go to their programs like music to itunes, pictures to iphoto,  do I have to do it individually? thanks for any help

If the icons have a black arrow bottom left corner, then the icons are just aliases, not the Application itself. You can move those icons to the Trash.

    Something is very wrong with your system, you need to try repairing the hard drive if possible.  See:

    If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to reinstall the system.

  • I have cs5 and when I try to download a raw file from my Nikon 810 an error message says this versioln of raw doesn't support this camera model. Yet I just updated cs5 online.

    I do not use lightroom and  I have a subscription so I can open all supported RAW formats. You will need DNG file for Your Camera's NEF files for use in Photoshop ACR version.  You can open your NEF files in LR it seems so you could do all your raw conversion with Lightroom and save out Tiff files for processing in Photoshop.   I do use lightroom for I do not need its library.  Lightroom does not support layered files so lightroom is of no value to me.  ACR UI is all I need having a second interface to Adobe Raw Conversion Engine would more annoyance than value to me.

    Well... I appreciate both of your responses. However... I believe that lvlibs cause more frustration then anything else.  My team has come across issues with lvlibs and conflicting paths (when using CM tools) and have resorted to using LLBs because they offer a clean set of file dependencies.  I understand that lvlibs are probably more robust, but they are not an option right now. Therefore...  the question I originally asked still remains.  Is there a quick and easy way to add a bunch of VIs to an LLB without having to save each one of them separately to the LLB?

    If you have facing pages, you have to set up the document with facing pages that is what is it for. If you have a spreadwide design as above, keep the spreads together. There is not even one reason not to do so.
    Only for wire-O-bindings might a different workflow useful, but also with facing pages documents and only when the left page and the right page have not a spread wide design:
    //// I did one mistake, I created a doument with a right binding, but it would work the same way with left binding.)
    1. Create a document with Facing Pages.
    2. Select the Spread in the Page Panel (Window > Page Panel) and in the panel’s flyout menu deselect "Allow Selected Spread to Shuffle". The spread’s page number will appear in brackets.
    3. Select a single page of the spread and drag it to the side until a vertical bar appears.
    4. Now you have the result.
    Left and right pages have their own spread and will have a bleed around each page without taking information from the other page.

  • Is there an easy way to get rid of duplicates in your music library?

    Is there an easy way to get rid of duplicates in your music library?

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership.See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

  • Updated to snow leopard.  Printer no longer turning on.

    Since updating to Snow Leopard, my printer (an HP DeskJet 5550) no longer turns on when I print over my wireless network via Airport Express. Not sure if this has something to do with the Express, Snow Leopard, or something else.
    Any thoughts?

    I am having the same problem with an HP Laserjet 1150 connected to my Airport Extreme.

  • After sharing computer with my partner, he backed up his phone and now our address books have been merged. Is there an easy way to separate them? The cloud automatically adds new contacts to both our phones etc.

    A while back, My partner asked if he could back up his phone on my macbook. Ever since our address books have been merged. there are so many duplicates it's  madness as if we both have a friend by the same name perhaps with no surname it's easy to call the wrong one.
    Is there a way to identify the root of each contact so we can separate them.
    Thank you for any solutions.

  • My documents on my iCloud storage got automatically deleted, is there any possible way to recover them? They're nearly 1GB and very important to me.

    On January 26th, I downloaded iCloud for Windows and logged in using my account which was the same with the one on my Mac. 2 days later, at 3:27 PM January 28th, my 1 GB of documents on my iCloud storage got deleted automatically. I'm saying this because at that time I was sleeping and both my Mac and my Windows PC are turned off, and I'm home alone, besides there was no suspicious login reported to me by Apple.
    So is there any possible way to recover these documents? I'm a teacher and they're very important to me. My Time Machine wasn't enabled so using it is useless.
    Thank you so much for any help.

    Please please help me, if you know how.

  • HT4906 Is there an easy way to put my photos in the cloud to manage my storage?

    Can someone help me to manage my photos by putting them in the cloud?  I'm a bit confused, as to how it happens?  Thank you.

    No - that is nothing to do with iCloud - it is a way to transfer photos between devices, backup IOS devices and share photos
    You must have your photos actually stored on a local hard drive - you may need an external hard drive if you have lots of photos

  • HT1933 Apple store charge twice to my credit card the price in game that I recenttly bought and there is not way to contact them it look more like a maffia.

    To whom it may concern at apple store. On 12 2013 I bought a game to my son and for some reason i bean charge twice for the same game
    apple receipt #204050687617 and 204050687618 first it was a message that my account was expired and say try again and after that apple is charging
    twice to my credit card. When I just need to be charge one.

    Yes, you should not be charged twice for a purchase, but as a user and not an Apple employee there is not much I can do except try and point you to the Apple people who can resolve this for you.

  • I use CS6 and when I try to open a ai file from later version I'm told i must select a page from the PDF to open?

    I am following tutorials in Adobe Illustrator CC Classroom in a Book, but I use CS6. How can I open the lesson files to display correctly?

    I'm having further problems when I open these CC ai lesson files.
    All the swatches disappear.
    I had not realized there would be such compatibility issues between CS6 and CC.
    Yes I am warned when opening files craeted with later versions that there might be some "data loss" but this seems beyond reasonable?

  • Is there an easy way to make a long chapter into a book with many chapters?

    I have a long, book length text file (50 chapters). It's one file in one ID chapter. I would like to make it 50 files in 50 ID chapters in one book (indb). Can that be easily done?
    Thanks

    You can "move the pages" which make one chapter in your ID file in the new documents and then save the new file, similarly you can do it for the 50 chapters and then compile this 50 chapters together in a book.
