I used bootcamp assistant to partition my hard drive to install windows. When I got to the part to install windows, I selected the bootcamp partition and then choose format as instructed but it would not continue stating that the partition was in GPT par

Please help!! I partitioned my macbook pro hard drive in bootcamp so that I could install windows. Everything appeared fine until I got to the install part. I selected the BOOTCAMP partition and then selected format as instucted. That was it. The install could not proceed because it says the partion is in the GPT format instead of NTSF. At this point it erased the "BOOTCAMP" name from the partion but the partion still exists.
I tried to reform by going back on the OS side, in disk utitly, erase and format. It will not allow me to select NSTF format.
What do I do to fix this??
Thanks for you comments.
Kristina

In Boot Camp Assistant when you select the format option the Boot Camp partition it automatically formats the Boot Camp partition as NTFS since this is what Windows requires. There is no option to select NTFS or any other format type.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.

Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
*[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If that works post back for further advice.
Next step, if safe mode did not work.
First: Try a clean install, (you have had a none standard version installed previously) that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
See
* this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
Second: try a New Profile
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
**[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

Subject - Adding movies to iTunes that had previously been deleted. Having just purchased an AppleTV, I wanted to re-encode a few movies at a higher resolution (Handbrake). I deleted the old version from iTunes, but it would not let me add the new version

I even tried changing the name of the file. When I choose "add file to library", then select the file, it does nothing, and provides no explanation. I also tried adding a specific file that had been previously deleted. I did not re-encode this movie; I just wanted to add the same file again and it would not let me.
I'm using iTunes 11.1.3.8 on Windows 7. I appreciate any help that could be offered.

In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
Click "Deuthorize ALL"
Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer. If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first.

I have a mac black that I bought in August of 2008. I also just bought a new iphone 5S and it is not compatible with my itunes. I can not download the new itunes because my software is 10.5.8 and I need 10.6.8 but it is not available. Help!

I just need to know how to update any software so I don't have to buy a new computer to use my itunes with my new phone.

Using Migration Assistant to restore after hard drive failure?

My MacBook's hard drive recently went kaput. The replacement arrived today and I attempted to do a TM restore when booting from the Snow Leopard disc. However, it inccorrectly states "This disk does not have enough space to restore your system." The new hard drive is exactly the same as the old one; both are 640 GB. I have researched this issue for hours and no one seems to know how to fix it, and frankly I am shocked that Apple has failed to recognize this serious problem.
So, my question is, can I use Migration Assistant with a fresh install of SL and get exactly the same results as I would if I had restored via Time Machine? Will I lose any data in the process that I would have had, had I done it via TM?
Another thing: I was messing around in the Migration Assistant window just to see how it worked. I selected everything that was available to be restored. However, it stated there was still around 150 GBs of free space on the drive. I had nowhere near that much free space on the old drive, and one would think that that would have left TM with enough space to go through with the restore. How is this sudden new, free space accounted for?

If you haven't already, use Disk Utility (which should be available early in the Snow Leopard installer boot process) to partition and format the new disk. Select the drive (not the volume), select the Partition tab, click on the Options button, then select "GUID Partition Map Scheme" (or whatever the exact wording is). Then format the volume as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".

If not succesful try the remaining items of:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1399 I have a windows pc. It has windows 8 installed and I've installed the newest version of itunes but when I try to play anything, it won't. There's no sound and it says it's playing but it does not. What can I do?

I have a windows 8 computer and I installed the newest version of itunes because I used to have an ipod and I have a few purchases that I wanted to listen to. When I try to play them it says it's playing but I can't hear anything. It does not even says it's played the whole way. It just stays at the beginning. It won't let me pause. I checked my computer sound and there is nothing wrong with it. So there must be some software problem but idk what it is. If anyone can help I would appreciated. Thank-you

Hi DJBentley2011,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there is an issue burning CD's in iTunes. Is the playback issue only occurring on a specific device and does the disc show up correctly in iTunes? The article linked below should help you resolve optical drive issues, it walks you through identifying potential issues and provides troubleshooting suggestions.

The new firefox changed my settings, i can only find my administrative account on my laptop, but i'm not logged in as the administrator.

I am trying to attach files from my user account on my laptop, but when I try to attach them inside a Firefox browser, it only allows me to look at the administrator account and the documents on there. I am not logged into my administrator account, because I obviously only use that for the administrative things on my computer. I'm not sure what to do to change this, I've looked through all of the settings in my new version of Firefox (3.6.11) and I can't find anywhere to change those settings. HELP ME, PLEASE!?

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator. 
Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties". 
In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.

While in imovie, when working on a project, I can NOT view the project in the right hand screen. I have made several videos and it has always worked before. I am not able to edit the videos because they won't play in the right hand screen.

The videos that I import (and are located on the bottom of imovie) will show up and play on the right hand screen. But if I move that clip to the actually project area it won't play in the right hand side! I somehow must have clicked something that now won't play the project videos and now plays the clips below instead! Help please I need to fix this! Everythign else works, I can still edit videos, add transitions, music, etc I just can't see it on the right hand side- so I can't edit because I can't see

See my post here on how to do this.

HT4623 I want to purchase a ipad 32gb in the larger size but have read many bad reviews that the wifi does not stay connected and I don't want to have to buy another data package as I already own an iphone that i pay data for, what are my concerns

I want to purchase an ipad 32gb in the larger size buy have read many bad reviews that they have problems staying connected to wifi. I don't want to have to buy a data package so I only want the wifi one. I already pay apple for my iphone data and I can't afford more money. Why are there so many bad reviews and are the newer ones that much better, according to many reviews they are not.Please help

I already pay apple for my iphone data
You pay your carrier for data, not Apple.
Why are there so many bad reviews
Where? Regardless, there are always going to be a handful of people having some sort of issue with any given device, but I would not therefore assume that you would be one of them.
