    Do you receive AOL mail in the Mail app or on the website?

  • What is best for me. I have been using Elements for many years (since Elements 2) and now want to but either 13 or Lightroom. Can anyone help me decide

    I have been using Elements for many years (since elements 2) and now want to upgrade. I am reasonably old and at this stage do not understand Creative Cloud. Am I best to upgrade to Elements 13 or try Light room 5?

    Do you want to make a one time purchase (Photoshop Elements) or pay monthly rent ($9.99 per month for Photoshop and Lightroom)
    Do be aware that the subscription model is just like rent... stop paying and the programs stop working... but you get the full Photoshop

  • I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried Tools -- Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3  years without difficulty

    I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with
    Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried
    Tools --> Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3+
    years without difficulty; I have lots of ram, hard drive and speed.
    Thanks for your input

    One step listed in the link to "helpful" info, was (when Iooked 30 seconds ago), to search for and download the newest version of iTunes. I'm running iTunes on Win 7 machine and was prompted to update today, 10.22.2014, and did so without a problem. Having said that, however, it looks as though the latest iTunes (12.0.1.26) is finally doing what the last version refused to do, which is to actually fully populate all my playlists on my 6, but there is a hitch: 12.0.1.26 will NOT allow you to show the sidebar unless you click on "playlists," that is, you cannot keep it open all the time.
    And, when plugging the 6 into the computer, the phone icon shows up but clicking on it does nada. What does work, for some strange reason, is clicking on the tiny icon (just under the "Store" menu link at top screen) which looks much like a tiny barrel, someone's idea of external drives, I suppose. The phone then comes up, with the list of stuff on the phone just under it where the sidebar used to be. Sync is now restricted to the lower right of the screen.
    Apparently, you will also need to update your iPhone's software as well; some friends with the 4 and 4s, however, had troubles with them after upgrading. The message from Silicon Valley (I can see Apple from my backyard, ha ha) is apparently, "keep upgrading," folks, get rid of those old phones.

  • I have been using itunes for 6 years now, and was listening to my music the other day and noticed that some of my songs were stopping short of finishing.

    I have been using itunes for 6 years now, and was listening to my music the other day and noticed that some of my albums songs were stopping short of finishing. They just stop and go to the next song. Any solutions? 

    I have experienced the same problem on my my iPad1, my former iPhone 4 my laptop and even my new iPhone5  though I had really hoped that the new phone and IOS would solve the problem.  About 5% of the songs are affected and the stoppage can range from seconds short to a minute and a half.  The file shows more of the music left, but it stops playing and goes to the next song.  Very aggravating.  Appears to happen on purchased and uploaded music.
    Any help Apple?

  • I am relatively new to lightroom although i have been using photoshop for many years.

    after opening, developing and copying a selected image, i make selections in the print section but when i try to print to my 2880, the program indicates in the upper left of the screen that it is in progress, then completed, but then invariably, lightroom quits without printing.  If i instead during my developing continue with editing in photoshop and print from there, i have no problem.  What am i doing wrong to force lightroom to quit ??     hope for some help,     owlbird

    i am editing my own question by adding that in the last 8 hours i find that if i select my image from " collections" rather than from the folders, It works in the print section   ! BUT although i can size it and add my title, whenever i
    request a watermark and try to print , it still quits.    Is this wierd, ???I am using  MAC OS X.

  • I signed up with the wrong email address for itunes and have been using it for 2 years, now it wants me to validate the address, but I can't.  HELP

    Please help.  Is there anyway to change my email address on my apple id?

    Well, your first mistake was making a new Apple ID. You only needed to go into Manage your Apple ID and change the Apple ID from the Yahoo email to your new email. Then, all the purchases you made with that old Apple ID would still be tied to your updated Apple ID.
    As it is, you now have a totally new Apple ID, but the purchases you made with that old Apple ID are still (and will forever be) tied to it.
    Your best bet is to log into Manage your Apple ID with the old ID (regardless of what Yahoo did with it, it is still a functional Apple ID, unless you had that disable for security reasons). Once you have logged into it, change the password on it to match the password on your new ID. Then when you are asked for a password to update an app, it won't matter which of the two Apple IDs is displaying. You will just type in the same password and your app will be updated.

  • I have been using Firefox for 2 years. Suddenly my bookmarks have vanished. I need them back.

    Firefox's start page has changed. I cannot find all my old bookmarks. The new icon on the "Apps" says Bookmarks, but none of my old bookmarks are there. How do I get them? Why do I need to import them. They are already with Firefox's bookmarks but not any more. I do not have a "File" on the Menu bar to open so can't even import them.

    If the menu bar has gone, see the [[menu bar is missing]] article for details of how to restore it. That will also bring back the Bookmarks menu item. If the bookmarks are still missing, see the [[lost bookmarks]] article.

  • I have been using Firefox for many years now and really like it, now the version 4 is extremely slow, anyone else having the same issue?

    I upgraded to version 4 last week and find it extremely slow compared to the previous version - like so slow that some pages do not even load. I have downloaded and gone back to version 3.6.17 and everything is back to the normal I have known for years with Firefox and it is really fast again...so now I know that there is nothing wrong with my computer and that the supposedly very very fast version 4 is much much slower than the previous version 3.6...so what gives? I'm not keen on going back to the new improved version 4, though I know it will not be supported soon...anyone else having the same issue?

    Having the exact same problem here.
    -Mac OSX
    -3.6 worked great
    -I tried the 4 beta, got rid of it because it was so slow
    -When it upgraded to 4 is VERY slow and freezes often
    -Appears especially slow on sites with flash (ie http://www.bbc.co.uk/news)

  • I have been using Treo for 5 years

    I have a Pearl 8130. I have hundreds of questions/problems.
    Is it seems my phone is always in a waiting mode. The sand clock
    is continually on. I try to make a call fro my address book and I have to
    wait because the phone is in a (what I call wait mode) wait for me to get ready.
    I installed and formatted a 2gb micro memory card and I formatted it. I transferred
    pics I had on the phone and the next morning I went to reach for my phone and of course
    the sand clock was on and after 3 mins the phone responded as I needed to call one of my restaurants.
    After the call the phone turned off by it's self. I had a pic of my family which I had downloaded to the phone
    before I installed the memory card, the pic was my home screen. When the phone turned back on all my
    (pics) were gone, from the device and the ones I had stored in the memory card.
    Does any one have any clue what is going on with the phone?
    Also is there a Book (Dummy guide to BB Phones) that has more info than the manual that I was provided? 
    Thank you very much for your time in helping me with this matter. 

    First thing to remember about a Blackberry is when you are having issues with it, such as a hanging hourglass, take the battery out (with the device turned on), leave it out for 30 seconds and put ti back in and try it again.
    Pulling the battery with the Blackberry turned on resolves many issues you may have with them.
    If its new, you defeinately should not be having these problems and as a worst case scenario, you can backup your Blackberry and reset it back to default and test it again.
