My Import feature has gone CRAZY!

Ok. What is going on with this folks?
I have been trying to upload photos from graduation.
It keeps asking me if I want to upload...and the number
of photos keeps growing and growing.
There are still some photos "out there" in this upload I want
and don't have on a card anymore...but they are not loading to the
library. (yet I can see them as they "upload")
HELP!
It has been uploading for HOURS now. It's stuck on 672 to load...
and has been for about an hour and a half.
What do I do?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?

Ok; I'm not sure what you're doing. 36 hours is rather long. Seems like a new migration. Not what I intended.
Here's what I intended: from the newly-migrated and apparently-corrupt environment, create a new user, not related to any existing user, nor any migration-created user, or any other user for that matter. That is, use  > System Preferences > Users and Groups, authenticate yourself by clicking on the padlock, and then click the + and create a wholly new user. Then log in under that user and establish the mail access.
36 hours? I'm wondering if there's an error or an exceedingly slow network here? Or a really, really slow disk? Or a sick backup? (WiFi isn't the path I'd usually choose, either.)
Failing the attempted second migration, I'd try a different tactic. Does your existing (old) system work? If so, I'd bypass the backup and connect an external (scratch) USB disk drive to the (old) sstem and then boot and use Disk Utility booted from the installer DVD disk or boot and use Disk Utility from the recovery partition or booted from a recovery partition created on some other external storage (details here vary by the OS X version and what hardware you have), and perform a full-disk backup of your original internal disk to (scratch) external storage. (Make sure you get the source and target disks chosen correctly here; copying the wrong way — from the scratch disk to your existing disk — will clobber your data!) In esssence, this will clone your existing boot disk. Then dismount the (formerly-scratch) external disk, transfer it over to the new system, and use it as the source of the migration, by performing a fresh OS X installation on the new system.
Target Disk Mode is also sometimes an option for accessing the disk for a migration, but that requires the right cable, and requires systems that have the same external connection; newer MacBook Pro systems use Thunderbolt for this, and older systems tend to use FireWire. And I'm guessing you don't have compatible hardware.
The details here can and do vary by your OS X versions and your particular Mac systems — if you'll identify the specific models and hardware, somebody might be able to better tailor the above (fairly generic) sequence to your particular configuration.

My iphone 5 has gone crazy...

HELP HELP HELP PLEASE I REALLY NEED MY IPHONE.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If basic troubleshooting does not resolve, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.
Be aware that the iPhone warranty is NOT International. You will need to either return to the US with the device and take it to Apple or ship it to someone you know in the US to take it to Apple.

Help, my system has gone crazy!

My imac G5 running Leopard, 10.58 Processor 18 GHz, Memory 2GB has gone crazy. I cannot open ITunes. If I try to download a small file it says my memory is nearly full and I need to clear disk space. Okay I have a few songs on iTunes and 7,900 photos on iPhoto, but that is all. I try to open a document in Word and it says 'you are working without a Word work file and your memory is nearly full'. I am not receiving e-mails when I know they have been sent. What is happening?

Don't worry about Filevault, likely you're not using it if you don't know what it is, but...

Less than 2GB free is very dangerous, you could loose everything as it's not really free space for our use.
An 80GB drive is really too small for later versions of OSX, you need to free up at the very least another 10 to 20GB.

My 3GS has gone crazy

I have a 3Gs that has gone crazy. Out of a sudden, voice control starts, plays music and even makes calls sometimes, the phone starts switching between applications (closes and opens them) and I can't do anything to stop it even when I touch the cancel button. It does this over and over again. At the same time this problem happened, the home button stopped working. Well it works sometimes when I restart the phone but not always. I don't think it's a matter of pressing the button hard because when it works, it's always the same press I use as before.
I upgraded to iOS4 but the problem still exists. I hope someone out there can give a hand.
Thanks

I did restore the device couple of times and I still have the same problem .. And on more thing, everytime I restored it, I get a msg on iTunes that the device is in recovery mode and that I had to restore the device!!

My keyboard has gone crazy

My keyboard has gone crazy: When typing all the upper letters (q,w,e,r,t,y,u,i,o,p,å,) at the same time the number above (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0) is also typing. Somehow I must have activated an effect whiteout knowing it. Pleas help me back to standard keyboard

Like a detectives at a clue-free crime scene, we have dreadfully little information that we can use to help you.

What Mac OS version?

Is the behavior limited to just one or two programs or does it happen in all programs?

Help! my ical has gone crazy!

i do not know what happened but ever since it became 2006 my ical has been very confused about what date it is. sometimes it shows dates correctly but usually it is a day off. for example, right now the large calendar view is telling me that today is saturday, feb 10. it IS saturday, but it's the 11th. What has gone wrong? the miniature view is telling me that today is friday, feb 10.
in addition to these problems, when i add a new event it won't allow me to put the correct times in. if i want to set an appointment for 8:00 i have to type in the number 6. i know that sounds really weird, but it's true. for the lower numbers like 1 and 2 there is nothing i can do because in ical world 1 is actually 3 and 2 is actually 4, etc.
this is the strangest thing that has ever happened and is getting me very confused about my schedule.

"Date Modifed" in word processor has gone crazy!

My "Dates Modified" have lost their accuracy! Most of them now show up as "Today" even though I haven't touched them. Times are scattered across the 24 hr clock! This was a great feature for keeping track of recent work and I miss it dearly.
A colleague has been experiencing some problems with a spreadsheet in Appleworks. She transferred this date via floppy disc from our Performa 6116CD, running System 7.6. I would need to ask her specifics on her problem, but I wonder if the source of my problems is related to hers?
I thank you all for your time and expertise and look forward to your reply.

Go to this page to determine which G4 tower model you have. Then go here & enter the model to access DIY intructions for that model. Among many others are instructions on replacing the PRAM battery.

Help!! My BlackBerry has gone crazy :(

I am very upset with my experiences with this phone, although this is important so I will be brief.
I was trying to sign in to Windows Live Messenger on my BlackBerry Curve 8520 last night when it said Connection Error (65). I said no big deal because this happens a lot. But after a bunch of times I began to get frustrated and I looked it up and it told me to reset my phone. No help. Then I decided to delete the app. I fell asleep after doing so and I woke up in the morning to re-add the application via BlackBerry App World. It said I need a WiFi connection to do so, and I am already connected to my hotspot. I checked my router and it's fine, and obviously it works because I am able to use it via my laptop. It says I am connected to my hotspot on my phone but it won't show anymore and I am no longer able to do anything using WiFi and the internet.
I am also having a potential battery problem that just started today. I have had it charging all night and I unplugged it this morning and the battery is now almost dead. Usually it would still be a full charge for the most part.
This is extremely frustrating and if you could give any suggestions it would be appreciated. I really don't want to spend 2-3 months waiting for my phone to get repaired incase I have other options.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You do know there has been a pretty widespread RIM data outage today in the Americas, and the past three days in Europe, Middle East and Africa.
This is probably the source of your problems. Just be patient, it will work again.
Meanwhile, you can Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.

Crop tool now displays a Diagonal. The "apply during import" panel has gone away!! Any help appreciated!!

My Crop Tool now displays a Diagonal instead of a "Rule of Thirds". I do not know why or how to correct.
Secondly, the "Apply During Import" portion of the right hand panel has disappeared. Thus I am unable to use custom setting while importing. I don't really know if this happened during upgrade to LR5.4 or not.
Any help greatly appreciated!!!

You probably pressed the O key which cycles through the crop overlays when the crop tool is enabled.
Click Tools / Crop Guide Overlay in Develop to see the various choices.

My iPod has gone crazy

I recently received a new iPod from Apple that because my old wasn't working. This one has been having problems too. At first, it would sometimes start to skip songs, (with a little rewind symbol constantly in the corner where the play symbol was supposed to go) and I had to run the battery down and recharge it to get it to go away.
Then it stopped playing any songs, it would just go to the next song on the album without playing any one. Then when I let the battery run down, it was frozen on the Apple icon when I recharged it with the charger. Then I plugged it into the computer and it showed the charging symbol that means you need to plug it into the charger for the first time.
So I did, and it loaded the iPod like the time I first got it and asked what language I wanted it in and all my songs were gone. Now every time I plug it into the computer iTunes won't recognize it, and every time I unplug it it resets itself again and asks me for the language and I still can't put any songs on it.
HELP??

Read this -Shuffle has gone crazy! Started to copy music to it then...

Hi, I bought an apparently *Brand New Ipod 1GB shuffle* and when i got it, I realised that it would not fit into the side of my emac and the keyboard usb is not strong enough to power it.
So i bought a usb lead to fit it into the side. I did the usual loading software on to the computer and then when it told me to connect the ipod i did. It came up and i restored it. itunes opened and it started to import the songs. I left it for a while and when i came back to it there was a message on the screen saying:
You have not removed the device properly, please make sure you.....
It was like just been pulled out of the usb, and not ejected properly. It had only copied about 40 songs. I decided to restart my mac and ever since it has not shown up on my mac. The one time that it did it flashed on the desktop a couple of times and then completely disappeared, it didnt even connect to itunes.
Another time i put it in it came up with the 'device you attatched cannot be recognized' then options came up - eject, cancel or initialize.
I clicked initialize and disk utility opened as it normally does - but the ipod did not show up down the side. My hardrive did as did my external hardrive, but the ipod was nowhere to be seen.
With this in mind i figured the person i bought it off might have plugged it into a PC. So i got in touch.
They confessed that they had plugged it into a PC but then decided they didnt want it. They failed to tell me this, so does this mean it has been formatted for a pc?
How do i make it formatted to my mac when it doesnt show up?
I cannot afford to waste £70 on something I cannot myself cannot return to apple, as i dont have a receipt etc.
Has the previous seller fried the ipod shuffle?
Please help, any guidance, suggestions, comments will be appreciated.

Rather than using disk utitlity, the iPod is formated using the iPod updater. Download the most recent version from Apple, run it, then plug in the iPod and see if it gives you the option to Restore. This will put the iPod back to square one, with a new copy of the software, etc.

ICal's Alert feature has gone Ballistic!

Upon start up, the Alert window opens an empty window, then starts re-sending hundreds of old iCal email alerts. the Alert feature re-starts Mail after quitting Mail. It's brought my PB G4 to it's knees. HELP Please!! Is there a way to toss the email alert feature from the iCal program or reinstall just iCal OR is there a virus at work here?
Thank YOU!
