In the new firefox 4, how do you know if the synching is happening? I understand it is automatic, but it was autmatic before. now I do not see the littel syncing icon anywhere on the page? where is that icon or another way to know if it is sycning?

in Firefox 4, is there an icon that shows that the browser is synching like there were in previous versions? i like to know that it is synching. Thanks!

hi guys. thanks.
also thanks for the reminder to boot to the drive to test it. i have not been doing this which is probably an error.
OK, so i have another post about creating a "folder with a name that is todays date". i would really like to see something inside the backup that i can verify very quickly with. i mean, i think i am realizing that all other methods are too indirect for me and that if i can get a visual on this with such a folder it would do me a lot of good.
i mean, one problem i am having with the alerts (as much as i like them) is that i am backing up multiple times on site and i also run some off site. so i get a lot of alerts and i like them. however, if i have a drive in hand and i plug it in it would be good to know quickly what the date of the backup is. say i take one of my externals from my desktop to the coffee shop with my laptop.
it sure would be nice to know what the current backup date is...
TIA

  • I have a 120gb Classic that has no space left on it. i am going to buy a larger gb capacity ipod as soon as i get clearer instruction on how to get the old ipod content to the new ipod. How do you get content from one ipod to the other?

    how do you get content from one ipod to the new one? my content is on an external hard drive not on my pc and i have run out of space on my 120gb classic. can you get old ipod content to new? my itunes has only got short cuts, the real content is on an external drive? can this be done?? please help

    If the content is on an external drive, but your library knows where to find it, then it should all work. Connect your device, make some selections for what to put on it, and sync. If, on the other hand, your current iPod is the only place holding some of your media then see this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • In the new Photos app how do you send a photo to the trash?

    The old "move to trash" facility in iPhoto is missing from Photos. How do you trash a photo from the library?

    It appears that All Photos is fixed at Keep Sorted by Date Added.  I have 6450 photos.
    But when I open the side bar and do a right click on iPhoto Events where I have 480 albums I get option to sort them by Name

  • With the new iOS 7 - how do you turn off previously viewed app's like the previous iOS to save battery life?

    Before I updated to the new iOS - I was able to turn off app's by tapping the bottom button twice and then placing and holding my finger on the app - I can't do that with the new OS and it quickly wastes battery life.  What can I do?

    Double click on the Home button. Swipe left-right to view the previously opened apps. Swipe UP to close them.

  • TS1702 Using the new operating platform, how do you go to street view?

    Using ios6,how do you go to street view?

    Yes. Unfortunately in bringing their mapping solution in-house, Apple lost access to Google's Street View data. It is a definite downgrade in functionality that should probably have been better explained in the release notes to the upgrade.

  • Verity Credit Union site will not open with the new Firefox. How can I get the old Firefox back?

    I want old Firefox back. My credit union, Verity, will not open with the new version of Firefox I have downloaded.

    @glennhaste, the public pages I visited seem identical in IE8 and Fx10, but you may be referring to a part of the site that requires logging in (impossible for non-customers to view).
    Since the problem is so recent, can you recall any changes you made in Firefox, or are you aware of any changes your CU made on its site?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    Firefox > Preferences > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
    While viewing a page on the site, "right-click" and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies" (''Sorry, I don't know how you right-click on a Mac'')
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • What's with the new Firefox 8.0? I made the mistake of updating mine and about 30% of the icons in bookmarks disappeared. It looks like you are requiring a favicon. Anyway, BAD IDEA!!!!!

    Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries.  How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone?  Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
    Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it.  It was a problem with iOS 7 and  8.1.1 doesn't fix it.  The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work.   I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today.  At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer.
