I was trying to move 4000 photos to a storage drive and somehow it ended up on my desk top. Now it is frozen. I have powered down a few times and still comes back up but you cannot do anything.
Try to wait it out. Moving 4000 photos to the desktop can take a long time. After awhile, if the mac responds go to edit - undo move. That may place the photos back in their original location.

I had to replace my hard drive and can't get my Photoshop CS2 9.0.2 to activate. I have tried both the phone and the website and have both the serial numbers. I can't find a number that works to speak to a live person at Adobe. I need to reduce the pixel size TODAY on some photos and need the program. Is there another way to reduce pixels if I can't get my Photoshop running today?

Where do I get the specially assigned serial number????? I don't want to have to purchase anything since I already bought the CS2 and I don't need a newer version.
Follow the prompts at the link provided by Ned.
Everything's there including your new CS2 non-activation download file and your new non-activation serial number.
It's free for existing owners of CS and CS2. Nothing more to purchase. -

How to move referenced photos to external hard drive and maintain "faces"
I created an iphoto library on an external hard drive. I chose not to copy imported photos to iphoto (reference instead) under iphoto preferences. I dragged a large folder of photos from my internal hard drive to iphoto and spent countless hours adding faces to all the photos. I now decide i want these pictures referenced from the external drive too, not the internal. I moved the file of folders to my external drive and of course iphoto now cant find these referenced pictures. I do "find photo" and point to where i moved these photos on the external drive and all works, until i close iphoto and restart it. (in other words, iphoto doesnt remember the new location i pointed to)
Is there a way to move the referenced photos to the external drive and still have iphoto faces work correctly?
thanksThis is just one of the many reasons that a referenced library is not recommended with iPhoto
it has been reported that File Buddy - http://www.skytag.com/ - can help resolve the broken aliases - I have not used - as always backup before messing with your iPhoto library

I have about 3,500 photos sitting in dropbox and just purchased my first mac yesterday. My husband and I each have our own Ipad and our own user id's on the mac. I moved two of the folders to Iphoto and it shows up on my screen in the right folders. However, on my Ipad, it shows all of them under one Photostream and not organized. They don't show up on my husband's "side of the computer" at all.
So my questions are:
1. How does one mirror their file organization on the Ipad?
2. How does one share all of the folders with another user on the same Ipad so they can view folders, and add pictures to the folders if they like?
Thanks!1. How does one mirror their file organization on the Ipad?
If you use the Photo Stream, the organisation in iPhoto will be lost - there is just one endless stream. YOu could sync your photos using iTunes. Then you will see the synced albums in the Photos.app on the iPad.
See this link: iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
How does one share all of the folders with another user on the same Ipad so they can view folders, and add pictures to the folders if they like?
On the same iPad? Do you mean on the same mac?
If you want to share an iPhoto library between two users on the same mac, the iPhoto library should be on a separate disk partition or even better, on a separate external disk. Then you can set the flag "Ignore ownership on this volume" to avoid permission problems. Both of you will be able to browse the iPhoto library and can edit the photos within.
See this support document: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
If both of you want to keep separate iPhoto libraries but share the photos, you could share selected albums as Shared PhotoStreams and invite each other to browse them. This would require iOS 7. Do you have iOS 7 on your iPad? Each Shared Photo Stream will be shown as a separate album on your iPad .

Why do scanned photos shuffle out of order in photos and iPhoto after the albums and web pages are shared? And how can I keep the photos in the order I want them?
The photo app puts files in date/time order and ignores their names.
You can look for another app that may honor file names (sorry, I don't know any to recommend) or you can find a program that alters your file properties. If all the files have properties that read the same date and time, then it defaults to alphabetical order -
Ever since having to replace my hard drive on my laptop and also the operating system, I cannot get my ipod to work with my laptop. I continually get this message. I have tried every troubleshooting procedure repeatedly and also have tried all the posts on the support communities. Can anyone help?
Nevermind that first part as I forgot that nothing shows up for the Nano at all in Device Manager,
The 2nd half of my reply still applies:
Otherwise, try uninstalling all USB root controlllers from your system, rebooting your PC, and reconnecting your Nano. This root controller drivers will automatically be re-installed upon reboot.

Since I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7 purshased songs with I tunes will not play the whole song on my computer Itunes library or when transferred to my Ipod. I have tried everything and still no luck. Any help?
did everything included deleting the songs and then redownloading them from the purchased section of the itunes store?

Other info....My OS is windows Vista. I can give you full spec of PC, however not sure that will help here. The desk top icon that appears after downloading Firefox 5 appears to be dead when i double click it. I do not get an egg timer or anything. I have tried to access this through programme files but it does the same.

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again. -
How can I get these movies back when i-tunes now says there is nothing there to download. Where did they disappear to.
Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

Is there a way to move smart previews to different hard drive and point lightroom to them
I want to use lightroom on a surface pro. My Lightroom catalogue will be on a 64gb thumbdrive so I can use it between my stationary computer and the portable one. Since my Smart Preview folder is much larger than 64gb, can I put it on the internal hard drive in the surface keep my catalogue on the thumbdrive and point lightroom to the smart preview folder?
No, my smart preview catalogue is 160gb and I don't want to carry around an external hard drive, using the catalgue on a low profile thumbdrive solves the issue of using two computers, If I can figure out away to point the program to the smart previews, then I would be in business, since the images would synch up when I get home again.

In trying to free up memory on my C: drive, I'm trying to move iTunes to a partitioned D: drive but my iPad then sees it as a "new" computer and won't sync without erasing and re-synching. Any suggestions?

I was trying to move my photos from the iPhoto library to an external hard drive. I now have a desktop display of thousands of cascading photos. How do I remove them from my desktop screen?
Strangely enough we can not see you so it really helps if you share with use exactly what you have, exactly what you did and details about the problem
what version of iPhoto and of the OS? What exact steps did you do? where are you seeing these "thousands of cascading photos" now and using what software and what exactly did you want to accomplish
The correct way to move your iphoto library to an external drive is to verify the drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journal) and then drag the iphotl library intact as a single entity to is
The correct way to move some or all of your photos is to select them in iphoto and export 9file menu ==> export -- https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921 ) to the external drive
