ICal creates blank calendars and then quits
I was publishing my calendars and synching Ical to my .Mac account. Now, Ical keep creating new blank calendars and then quitting! Help!
Try this:
Locate the folder ~/Library/Application Support/iCal and drag it to your desktop
In the folder ~/Library/Prefeences/ delete any files (2-4) that start com.apple.iCal and end .plist
(~ represents your home directory)
Start iCal. Let me know what happens. I expect it will start with two blank calendars, no syncing and no publishing, but there are other possibilities. If we get that far we can then try restoring your original calendars.

is there a way to copy an ical calendar and then re enter it in ical at a later date? i am trying to copy my workout calendar and move it forward but i want to keep the one from june july and august of this year. I guess techinically it is a recurring calendar but all the exercises recur at different intervals
If you want to share albums on dropbox or similar web services, set the album in your custom order and use the export command to a temporary folder on your computer. To keep the sort order, use the option to rename with a common starting text string plus an order number. Since you'll upload those files to Internet, also use the resizing feature to export in a reasonable size, not too big for uploading/downloading, and not too small if you want your relatives to able to print and not only to view.
So, you'll get a folder ready to upload and share via Dropbox or another Web service. -
each time I create a new album in IPhoto, photos from another album or from photo stream are automatically dumped into the new album.. how do I create a blank album and then import photos from a flash drive into the new album?
just import the iPhoto
Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative ! -
When I create a new project in iMovie and drop clips into it, it plays the first one and then quits right near the end of the second clip. I have re-started my computer, tried a new project etc, and no luck, does anyone know how to fix this issue?
This is a part of the larger MacBook Pro connectivity issue. There are several related threads dealing with the MBP's networking problems. If your unit is suffering from this type of difficulty, good luck ... (or a long ethernet cable)
(PS Everybody please make noise on this one so apple comes up with a solution.)

IPhoto crashes when emptying the Trash and then quitting iPhoto
When I empty the iPhoto trash and then quit iPhoto, it crashes every time. When I reopen it the trash is again full.
Also, the items in the trash are blank squares.
Any ideas?Ronniebel:
Have you tried the usual maintenance procedures? Repair disk permissions, repair the disk with Disk Utility while booted into the system installation disk that came with you Mac, run Tiger Cache Cleaner's medium cleaning routine or OnyX to clean out the various user caches and the cron maintenance scripts.
Also download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Another possibility is to run iPhoto Library Manager and use its File->Rebuild Library menu option to rebuild the library.
Next, move the iPhoto Library folder to the Shared folder and set the access so other users can read and write. Then log into another account on you Mac, fire up iPhoto with the Option key depressed and locate and open the library in the Shared folder. See if you can delete the trash there and operate normally. If you can then it's something to do with your other account. If you can't then it's the library itself.
Good luck. -
The application maps is not working. When I try to run it opens for a few seconds with a blank screen and then closes.
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Safari won't open...freezes and then quits
I'm running 10.3.9 and whenever I open Safari, it will open, freeze and then quit. I have the Cubs home page as the default page but I can't keep Safari open long enough to change it.
I can't keep Safari open long enough to do anything, except submit more of those inane "Crash Reports" to Apple which probably don't do anything.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? I've done Disk Utility and that hasn't helped.
Any thoughts?Hi econwriter5!
The first thing I would do is trash the Safari preferences, and Cache.
HD > USERS > HOME > LIBRARY > CACHES
Trash:
Safari (Folder)
HD > USERS > HOME > LIBRARY > SAFARI
Trash:
Icons (Folder)
History.plist (File)
HD > USERS > HOME > LIBRARY > PREFERENCES
Trash:
com.apple.Safari.plist
Good Luck!

I go to play on a game on my iPad it will load the game up and a minute later will go to a blank screen and then back to all my apps.does it everybtime? Why is that? What do I need to do to stop it?
1. Close all inactive apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two and tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo -
I have created a pdf and then want to send it to my boss. When he recieves it it is saved in the 14 X 8.5 inches version. How can I saved it on my end as a 11 x 8.5 inch so he doesn't have to uncheck "Choose paper source by PDF page size"?
Hi heathers,
You would need to print the file to a new PDF with the appropriate page size.
Best,

How do I create a signature,and then add it to an e ailed document?
How can I create a signature and then use it to sign a document in e mail?
Not sure I understand the question correctly.
Open Mail and click on Preferences under the Mail menu. Click on the Signatures icon in the toolbar. You can set up your signatures there.
But if you are talking about adding a written signature, then you cannot do that within Mail. You would need to scan in an image of your written signature then manually add it to a signature you create in mail as a graphic image. That seems to work. -
My iphone keeps blanking out and then when I press then home button it tells me the battery is dead. it has happened to me at 30%, but today it was at 71%, is there a fix for this?
This is often due to faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

Creating an Action and then Batch Process
Need some help creating an action and then batch processing a file using that action. I was able to do it in previous versions of PS (wish I had kept the action!). For some reason its not working. Keeps creating the same file over and over again. Here goes:
Action:
Open up a PDF (separate PDFs of a PowerPoint Pres, may contain 80-100 pages); convert to grayscale; reduce to 43.2%; save as a TIF and close file.
Batch:
Use this action on all files.
When I create the action it just recognizes the first file that I use as a sample and saves over the result over and over again.
Thanks in advance.
TomYou probably recorded a save as command in it and changed the name of the file. This change is also recorded and after playing the action it just overwrites the same filename over and over again.
Always leave the filename untouched when recording actions. -
I use MB pro running Lion OSX 10.7.5 and Now I have bought MB Air with Mountain Lion,Can I transfer my MB Pro stuff running Lion to MB air running Mountain Lion or do I need to buy Mountain Lion for my Pro and create a backup and then transfer ,Although I want Mountain Lion for my MB Pro but can I use the one from MB Air,thnx?
Hello,
If you just do a normal time machine backup on your macbook pro and then plug that harddrive into your new air; you should be able to just use migration assistant to transfer all your files. You wouldnt need to upgrade to mountain lion on your macbook pro.
Hope it helps,

I need to setup Solar inverters remotely some times and I am looking to see if there is a way to use my iphone to connect the inverter to the internet. My thought is to create a hotspot and then connect the inverter to a router(it has a ethernet cable that can plug into a lan) The router is then connected to my iphone. So something similar than a dongle I suppose?
If you're wanting to share your hot spot with a device that requires an Ethernet connection, you need a device that can connect to Wi-Fi while providing access to that connection via Ethernet. One idea might be to configure an AirPort Express to serve as a Wi-Fi extender of your hot spot, and plug the solar inverter to the Ethernet port on the Express.
