My iMac drops settings information. Sounds associated with receiving and sending an email disppear after about a week and return following a shutdown and a restart. The cycle contunes. Also, the picture of me that was taken when I bought the iMac more than a year ago and appeared at logon recently disappeared and was replaced by a soccer ball. I took a new picture, which appeared for about a week at logon, and it has now been replace by a blank picture.

The standard procedure with these types of isues is a PRAM reset.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

After editing photos on the iPhoto can i keep the original date of the picture,(when it was taken).thanks

can i recover the original date of the picture whenit was taken after editing with iphoto.

You do not need to do anything - editing a photo in iPhoto does not modify the original date of the photo - that is a part of the photo informatiopn (in the EXIF data) - the only way to modify it with iPhoto is to use the modify date/Time command

I have transferred Aperture 3 from an old Imac to a new. Now I´m requested to put in the serial number for v2, which I upgraded from several years ago. I can`t find it, but have the serial number for the upgrade. What to do?

You'll have to contact Apple. See Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can only track it if you turned on Find my Mac in your MacBook. To track it, open http://www.icloud.com, log in with your Apple ID and select "Find my iPhone".
Your Mac must be connected to the Internet, and it must have your Apple ID. If not, you won't be able to track it. If you didn't register it in Find my Mac, unfortunately you can't track it anymore

Z programs which were last run 1 year ago in a production server.

I need to find the names of all the z programs which were last run 1 year ago in a production server. Is there any table that contains such record of Z program?

Hi Nabarun,
TRDIR is the useful table with the fields UNAM, UDAT.
With the ST03N you can get the list of last executed.
and also check with the STAD .
hope they will help you

My last computer died, but we've been able to transfer my files onto an external hard drive to put onto my new computer.I have now got exclamation marks next to 100 songs which I downloaded from Frostwire years ago. How can I fix this?

After my brother transferred all my files from my old computer to an external hard drive, he then put them onto my new computer. It appears that 100 songs which I downloaded from Frostwire years ago have the exclamation mark next to them. I cannot find the files on my new computer, and cannot remember where they were saved to on my old computer as it was over 3 years ago. I have also tried to consolidate the files as I've found people suggested, but that is not working. I have also read that you should tell itunes that you are moving the music, but my old laptop cannot be read when it is on. Is there any other way tofix this issue? I don't want to have to buy over 100 songs which I already have.

If this is your iCloud email account, whcn you delete an email from any of your devices, they are moved to the trash on all devices/computers, then the trash is automatically deleted after 30 days. That's how IMAP accounts work. You can't delete them from your device and keep it on the server because you are reading and deleting from the server itself.
If you want to keep them on your Mac, you'll need to move them to a folder rather than deleting them. When you do, they will be moved to the same folder on your other devices.

TS3276 I receive a pop up from ICal saying the server does not recognize me user name and password. This started yesterday. I have no problems with receiving or sending emails through Mail

I receive a pop-up from ICal saying the server does not recognize my user name and password for my me.com email address. This started yesterday and occurs about every 5 minutes or so. There are no problems with receiving or sending email through Mail. I did change me email password several days ago but have no problems sending/receiving since then.

I fixed the problem. I opened Preferences in ICal and entered my new password. No more pop-ups

I have only had my iphone for about six weeks and today it will not turn on, nothing happened to it but the screen is black.

I have only had my iphone for about six weeks, and today it just died. Nothing happened to it, but I went to call someone and the screen was black, now it won't turn on or charge!????

Standard troubleshooting...
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.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

The tools are not responding when I try to use them. Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all. I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately. I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!
Any help anyone can give me will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Update on help with PHP to send an email

On Jan 9th Iasked for help Asking for help with PHP to send an email wanting to send myself an email when a particular web page was opened.The group gave me lots of ideas / suggestions but unfortunately I was not able to make it work the way I wanted. But.. with perseverance.. made it work. The original PHP code I wanted to use was:
<?php mail('[email protected]','Subject of the e-mail','This is the body of the e-mail!'); ?>
After much trial and error. this is what I found works.. for me at any rate. My log in sets a cookie that welcomes my user back by name so I ended up using that information with this:
<?php
if (isset($_COOKIE["last_in"])) {
$user = $_COOKIE["last_in"];
mail('[email protected]','News Page',"$last_in");
?>
Again, thank you for all the help with my initial question.. there are a multitude of ways to accomplish a task, and for me this is the one I was looking for.

MacBook slow wakeup, black screen, Mavericks, took to Genius bar, worked OK for about a week and now the same.

MacBook slow wakeup, black screen, Mavericks, took to Genius bar, worked OK for about a week and now the same.
Screen actually seems a very dark navy blue almost black. sometimes can see cursor in white
Only happens sometimes

If you can somehow document any processes you've put the MacBook
through, which can cause it to repeat the symptoms you've seen, be
sure to write down the sequence of events if your action and resulting
issues can be make re-occur. Then you'd have a fair chance at some
one looking deeper to find the real cause of this problem. {If you have
a digital camera handy, you can take a picture of the screen if it should
display some curious content other than a black screen, such as that
seen in a kernel panic or other message. Otherwise, a working Mac
can take its own screenshot.}
The computer should be returned to the Apple Store genius bar for
further evaluation & more in-depth diagnostic tests of long duration.
Sometimes a test may not run any of the additional software, together
or separately, that you may be accustomed to using. Perhaps the basic
OS X and a few applications work just fine.
If the issue is due to a conflict in software and not a hardware failure,
the cause may be harder to discover. If you have a complete backup
of the system and your files on an external drive, that may help if you
need to reinstall it. However if there is a problem in that software set
a new installation without conflicting software may be required in order
to troubleshoot the machine.
How old is the computer, how much RAM installed, how large a hard
disk drive and what is the remaining unused capacity of that drive?
(The HDD capacity will show 'other' so that may be unsubstantiated.)
Are there any indications in Activity Monitor, or in the system log files
from Console, to show crash logs or other effects from the Time/Date
of these slow wakeup and black-screen intervals? There may be.
Some of the system report may be helpful to those who know how to
read the resulting mass of files. Perhaps one of the more advanced
users who occasionally reply here will see your thread and offer a
method of accessing the OS X via Terminal or single user mode,
for troubleshooting purposes. Mine is an older OS X with less fuss.
Good luck & happy computing!

If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...

This one will create the form, database and send out the emails...

The alternative is to use a marketing service if your business can justify the cost. Their templates are tested in all the common email clients...
