ML upgrade went smooth but I can't access icloud document library from pages or any other app?
The upgrade went OK but I can't access the icloud document library as described in the Apple features section. I can't get the dialog option in either Pages or Numbers Open boxes and it is not an option in Finder either.
1. Switch to Finder bt clicking on your desktop
2. On the Menu bar is the Go menu
3. Click on it holding down the option key and you should see the system library listed (exact wording escapes me I am not in Lion)

Can't access iPhoto 09 library from outside iPhoto
Since upgrading to iLife 09 I can't access my iPhoto library from anywhere BUT iPhoto. I use Photoshop CS2 and open my photos directly from that application. But now when the directory actually appears, it is greyed-out and inaccessible.
Yes you can do this
In Finder you can right click the iPhoto library and choose 'show package contents'.
but you shouldn't.
With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
All of these are a: faster and b: safer than rooting around in the folders of the Library package

I have over 350 songs that were lost on mutliple devices in an accident.The original computer and Ipod were lost. My account has been the same for years but I can't access my old library. Help!!
<Email Edited by Host>Whatever you bought from iTunes is yours forever and can be downloaded as many times as you want. This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store.
Here is the procedure for your reference.
On a computer, launch iTunes. Click on iTunes Store on the left
On the right you will see this
"Sign in" using the Apple ID used to purchase your songs, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.
Whatever you have that did not originate from iTunes will have to be obtained from whatever means you used to obtain it in the past. -
How can I access my music library from a laptop on the road, as if my PC is not active? I tunes is installed on both PC and Home Sharing is enabled on both devices.
The key constraint for Home Sharing in this context is that both PCs need to be on the same wifi network. So once you get out of range of the wifi network covering your home PC, the laptop is not going to be able to Home Share.
Have you considered importing your iTunes music to the laptop? Then you could listen to a local copy of the music on the laptop while you're on the road. (You can do the import via home sharing when both computers are on the same wifi network.) -
HT2954 How can I access my imac mail from a different computer other than Apple?
How can i access my imac email from a differnt computer other than
apple?If you are using IMAP mail connection (IMAP keeps the mail on the server), then you just configure the other computer's mail client to access the same account.
If you are using a POP mail connection, then the mail is generally downloaded to your Mac and deleted from the server. That is a much more difficult problem to solve. NOTE: Google's gmail does have a POP option that does NOT delete the mail on the server, so it is accessible via the gmail web page.
A lot depends on what you are using for your mail service and whether you are using IMAP or POP protocols. -
Can I access my Itunes Library from my brother's computer via the internet so I can download my Library to his new IPod? Thanks!
The songs that you want to sync need to be on the "local" storage of the computer being used to sync the iPod.

Can I access my itunes library from a different apple tv
Can I access my itunes library through my parents apple tv? I would like to show them photos from my library.
Not unless the iTunes library is on your parent's local network.
If it is, then configure iTunes and AppleTV to use the same Home Sharing Credentials, and set up Photos to Share under the iTunes Advanced tab.

Can I access the same library from 2 computers?
I just purchased and installed Photoshop Elements 10 on my main computer at home. Awesome tool!
I just loaded up over 25,000 pictures taken over the last 12 years and am slowly going through the task of tagging them. My question is as follows:
If install on a second computer, how do I access the library from the main computer? I am thinking that I can tag come pics during my lunch hour and get through this faster at the office but how do I move the library from one computer to the next?
I don't think the library is actually "moveable". Does it not just sort what is already on my main computer?
All suggestions welcome!If your photos and catalog file are on an external HD, then you would have to bring the external HD wherever you want and PSE will work, provided that the drive letters are the same on both computers. (Example, if the external HD is E:\ on your home computer, it would have to be E:\ on the other computer).
You can move the catalog file and everything else in that folder via Windows. If you need to move the photos, this must be done in PSE (Folder Location View). -
Can I access my ITunes Library from a different computer?
My original computer is in storage and I am using my laptop for now. I have several different libraries in ITunes but I cannot find my playlists? (See Subject for question)
Your post is a little confusing. Do you mean you can't find your library? Or you can't find your playlists? If all your music is on your original computer, you won't be able to access it from your laptop any more than you can access anything else on the hard drive of your original computer.

How can I access iCloud documents from my iPad and work on them on my iPad
How can I access and work on documents in the cloud on my iPad, not a computer
Thank you, I really appreciate your time, but I think I am after something the iPad won't do. I don't want to use a computer at all. I would like to open an iCloud doc using my iPad, work on it (on the iPad), then print or save it back into pages or the iCloud.
From your responses, it sounds like you have to use an iPad in conjunction with a computer, of some description, to work on documents in the cloud, the iPad alone will not let you do this.
So I guess the short answer is, I can't.
Thanks for your time and input. -

Can't access Aperture 2 library from Motion 3
I can't seem to access my Aperture 2 library from Motion 3, am I missing something?
Many thanks
MarkOK - answered by own question!
The v3 trial becomes the default. You need to right click 'open with' and use v2 on the original library.
I also note that you can buy the unlock code from the trial - not something that is mentioned on the Apple Store. Now I have to wait for the blessed box to turn up!! -
I can not access my icloud and twitter from my iphone 4. It does not give me an option to change icloud settings. After i updated my iOS, it did not give me an option to switch on icloud. Can anyone please help with this?
Hey guys I figured out how to solve the issue.
You need to go to settings>general>restrictions.
Turn off restrictions and your iCloud and twitter will start working.
Enjoy. -
