My hdd wont show on my mac but i cant see it on disc utility ??
Please help me
Clarification - you can or can't see it in Disk Utility?
In Finder, go to your user folder/library/Preferences and move the com.apple.finder.plist to your desktop.
Re-launch Finder by logging out/in and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.

my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.
What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this. -
External Drive Files Not Showing Up on Mac but files do shows Up on PC
External Drive Files Not Showing Up on Mac but files do shows Up on PC
i had the Ex HD for about 3 years running smoothly on my mac but recently everything disappeared. plunged it into a pc to see if it read my files and it did. what can i do? to make it work on mac again. i don't want to reformat that drive because i have important applications (DMG) and other zip photo video files in the drive.yes. i did.
...i have tried "verify" & "repair" but they didn't pass the san test. and when i "unmounted/mount" a error message popped up say that there is a application running off the drive but there nothing (i see) running, to close all activity -
I used time machine to restore on a formatted MAC. Now the HDD space has reduced by 100GB but I cannot see any of the files. How do I find and delete those 100GB data from the HDD?

I created a new user account just to see if it was my user Library or if there was something wrong with my system. And the new user account is doing most of the same things so I will need to do a full restore anyway.
Not necessarily. I'd suggest downloading and installing the "combo" update. That's a combination (thus the clever name) of all the updates to Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards. -

Hi Victoriahernandez10,
Sorry to hear you are having issues with your new iPhone. If you are having issues receiving iMessage messages across your iPhone and your Mac, you may want to double-check that your phone number and your Apple ID are correctly linked and that all your contact addresses/numbers are set up, as outlined in the following article:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
You may also be interested in the new SMS feature of Continuity for Yosemite and iOS 8. This enables similar functionality for SMS and MMS messages:

I have installed Elements 13 on my Mac but can't see how to open it. When I click on the disk icon on the desktop it takes me to an information page that gives no information about opening Elements 13. How do I open the software so that it can be used?
Unfortunately, when I open applications, adobe photoshop elements 13 folder does not appear in the adobe folder. It appears as a disk on the desktop, only.

Help! -Itunes wont sync, Set-Up Assistant pops up, Cant see iPod contents..
I have several problems happening at once - please help if you can!
When I connect to iTunes, my iPod starts to sync, but then I get an error message "Cannot synchronize ----'s iPod. Unknown Error (-48)"
It then jumps straight to the Set Up Assistant, as if its the first time I've connected my iPod! (I've had it for a year now). I'm too scared to go through that option in case it wipes the music/video off my iPod.
After all this, my iPod's name Imine) is actually visible in the left side panel of iTunes - BUT, i cant see any of the contents ie songs, video etc.
Funny thing is, I can still load songs & video onto the iPod, and it synchronizes and saves. But, I just cant see anything thats on the iPod (meaning I cant edit or delete, which is annoying), as iTunes only recognizes it as a brand new ipod.
So, what can I do?
I've tried to reset the Ipod, and reloaded iTunes. I've even used an earlier version of iTunes on a different computer and the exact same thing happens there (which leads me to believe somehting happened to the iPod).
I dont want to restore the iPod - I have nearly filled the 160GB capacity and I simply cannot back it up anywhere as no computer i have has enough memory and all my original music is overseas at home.
Why is itunes not recognising the ipod, but it still saves data on it??? How can I bypass the Set Up assistant?? (its irritating).
Please help!!
JJ LAI am also having the same problem. This is my second ipod (I've added a shuffle and already had a nano). The nano works fine. When I connect the shuffle, it is grayed out in the left pane. The main view only shows two tabs, Settings and Contents. It doesn't seem to matter how I have the syncing setup.

i have an ipod tough 3g and its like about 4 to 5 years old it works perfectly fine except the home button is abit messed up and the ipod sometimes crashes. but other than that everything is fine. so i was watching something on an app and then al of a sudden i dont see the video i can just hear it. i then think its just the app but when i go on youtube the same exact thing happens. you click to watch a video and you can hear it perfectly but you cant see anything. the screen is just black when u ONLY watch a video. this happened last night so yea.i really hope somebody can help me figure out how to fix this and whats wrongwith it:)
thanks for your time and help!
Noor .T.When it goes black do a very short press of the button on the right upper side of the phone and the screen will reappear. Make it a very short quick press.
OTOH, if you are using the speaker so you can watch the screen as you are talking when it goes dim touch the screen anywhere that it is blank and it will again go bright. On long calls you have to repeat this.
Many folks have had the same problem you described and what I have told you is the best and ONLY way around the screen going blank during a call.

IDOC status 03 in R3 but i cant see it in XI
Hi Experts,
R3 side idoc created successfully and 03 status in we02, there were no entries in SM58, SLDCHECK also works fine, but i cant see the idoc in XI. i deleted the meta data and created again but no luck, i created port and rfc destination and partner profile all looks good.
when i send the same idoc from WE19 it went through to XI.
What could be the reason, any one help me out of this.
Thanks,
Praveen.Hi all,
i assume that Harald Boeing is correct with the answer of a missing commit work in the application.
The application is creating the idoc and make an implicit db-commit if the LUW is finished.
I assume that in the idoc outbound partner agreement the transfer mode is set to "immediate".
If the transfer mode is set to "collect idocs", then this problem will not occur.
The ALE framework makes a function call of the rfc api
like
call function "IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS" in background task
If the commit work is missing, no rfc call is created by the RFC-layer, IDoc will get status 3 and
no idoc is sent to xi (no systemlog or warning).
There are two rfc-ports available:
- trfc => entry in transaction SM58 is created
- qrfc => entry in transaction SMQ1 is created
If the idoc is cloned and resent with the idoc test tool (TA WE19), then the rfc call is done
and also the commit work is done.
The customers can check if the rfc-call in SM58 is made or not with the following step:
- in transaction SMQS the maximum amounts of rfc-connections for the used rfc-destination
can be defined
- if the max. amount of rfc-connections is set to 0 (zero) than no SM58/SMQ1 transaction
are processed
- idoc must be recreated with the application (not with WE19 tool)
- check if the unprocessed rfc-call-entry is created in SM58 (for trfc-port)
- if not then the application must be checked why the explicit commit work is not called
please note that an implicit/explicit database-commit is not enough
in case it is an SAP application it must be checked if a note for that problem exists
- please do not forget to reset the max amount rfc-connections in TA SMQS
to a value higher than 0 after this test
Kind regards.

My app store (iPhone 6) doesn't refresh since november 1st in the screen appears i have already 11 updates but i cant see it

I had to do ALL of the above in sequence, but before rebooting, I turned WiFi OFF.
When I rebooted, I turned WiFi ON. I made sure that Location Services was ON for the Apple Store ( the one with the shopping cart).
Then I went into the App Store.
I did that about 3 times then voilà! The App Store appeared again.
To summarize:
- Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead.
- Try App Store. If it doesn't work, continue with below.
- Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off
- Close all apps in the Task Bar.
- Turn WiFi OFF.
- Reboot.
- Turn WiFi ON.
- Make sure Location Services is ON for the Apple Store.
- Turn Date and Time to Set Automatically ON.
- Try App Store.
Repeat the above if necessary. Thanks Demo, Ocean20 and Diavonex.
It worked!

I am unable to delete my photos which are synced through computer..i have upgraded to ios 7 and im using iphone 5...i tried doing it by using itunes but i cant see any photos at all...help requested
If you didn't already do so, try uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components (not just iTunes and AMDS), then reinstall iTunes, as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. Follow the article and uninstall them in the order indicated.
