My Itunes library keeps on wiping itself how do I stop it from doing so?

I have been having this problem with Itunes since easter and I can't get it to stop, also it forgts the names of the items when I actually find them and put them back in, my unknown album file is so big right now that it has just gotten rediculous.

See this post.

I've been deleting the info in the "Sort..." fields, but when I plug my iPod into my computer iTunes repopulates the fields I deleted. How do I stop it from doing that?

I've been deleting information I don't want in the "Sort..." fields (like getting rid of "Deluxe Edition" markers, etc.), but when I plug my iPod into my computer iTunes repopulates the fields I deleted. This only happens for a few artists, and it's the same artists every time this happens. How do I stop it from doing that? It makes it measurably harder for me to control the organization of my library.

Although I'm connected to my WIFI network my computer keeps "looking for new networks" How can I stop it from doing so when I'm working at home and don't want another network?

You might want to update Safari to 3.12. I would empty the safari cache. (Safari>Empty Cache). Then quit Safari. System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP. Insert the following into the DNS Servers box;
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
then hit apply. Now launch Safari. You should also try powering down modem, router and Mac and power up in 2 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

Select the wi-fi tab in the menu bar then select "Open Network Preferences..." Select the "Advanced" button, then select the network that it is interfering with your MBP, then hit the - button and it will "forget" that network. Hope that fixes your problem, good luck.

Why does the cursor keep going to the address bar and how can i stop it from doing that?

For some reason after one of your updates, the cursor on the browser always goes to the address bar. It deletes the address and wants me to type in a search term. I have gone through the necessary changes that your support page suggested to turn that feature off, but it still does it.
It is seriously irritating and inconvenient. How do I stop it from doing that. I am very close to not using Foxfire anymore as my default Browser. Please let me know how to fix this problem.

For me at least, it's not a mouse setting.
It started after an update a couple of months back and nothing I can do will change it. Tried running in safe mode, it does it, tried a reset, still does it. uninstalled, reinstalled, does it now too.
It's infuriating!
Currently running version 31.

Relax, they weren't converted to PDF.
You can tell by right clicking ANY of them and choosing "Properties". You'll see there that they're STILL .xls or .xlsx files. The "association" has changed and Windows now indicates that they open with Reader, which isn't right.
Where it says "Open With" under the General tab, you can click "Change" and re-select Excel as the default app to open thim.

When I try to set a photo for my wallpaper, its zooms in. How do I stop it from doing so?

When I try to set one of my photos as the walpaper, it zooms in on the photo. How do I stop it from doing so?

Hello joecarusoinc
The reason it zooms in on the picture is to give a sense of depth perception and not have any black space with the photo. If you want to reduce the amount of zoom try turning on Reduce Motion to see if that will work for you.

SHARED DRIVE auto LOG IN -- how do I stop it from doing that?

I have two iMacs on my network running OSX10.5.7 I often share files between the two systems.
Whenever I start one of the iMacs it asks me to log into the other mac (it acually halts the startup process and waits for your response, ok or cancel.
The iMac will then continue starting up.
How can I stop this from happening? I've checked log-in items and dont see an auto mount scenario.. I am perplexed.
HELP!
Thank you!

This is the screen I get on startup (my system is set to auto log me in to my desktop):
"Enter your user name and password to access the file server POWERBOOK G4"
The G4 is the name of the other iMac
It then asks me to connect as: a gust or registered user. If i input my name and password, it will mount the G4's shared drive on my desktop. This happens EVERYtime I restart my iMac.
I took a photo of the screen, should you like to see it -- cant figure how to post it here.
I looked in the Directory Utility application as suggested... nothing there to delete!

Whenever i turn on my macbook pro ,, mac office , powerpoint and excel starts up itself , how can i stop this from happening?

how can stop this from turning on itself?

Apple menu -> System preferences -> Users -> select your user, and select Login Items. There is where automatic launching happens. The other thing is, with Mac OS X 10.8 and later, there is a checkbox when you restart or shut down your Mac to reopen windows that were open upon shutdown. Make sure that checkbox is unchecked. You aren't running Classic. You are running some version of Mac OS X on a MacBook Pro.

When I add an event to my calender, it also adds two alerts. How can I stop it from doing that?

EVery time I add an event, it places two alerts on the event. How can I keep it from doing this?

Hmmmm....But even when I do that, the two playlists go into the general music file and mix together. So I don't understand the point of a playlist if it all just gets thrown into the general mix. Seems like if you create a playlist, it should be separate--otherwise, what's the point? Or maybe I'm missing the point. Sigh...

My mac keeps closing all of the applications by itself- how do I stop this from happening?

My mac closes out of any programs I have open if I let it sit for more than a couple of minutes. This is a new development, so I am not sure if I have some kind of virus or if it is a problem with the computer. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

I have the same problem on my Macbook Pro with OSX. The computer does not shut down. When using any application like; internet, photoshop, or watching movies. For example; im watching netflix, I cant watch a show without the internet window slide to the left and take me to the desktop 5 to six times in 45 minuets. Sometimes I dont have to be watching anything. In fact, my window minimized itself at the start of this sentence. Its really annoying and I would like for some help.

Youtube won't let me type in comment box below video, and keeps affecting the video when I hit keys. why and how can I stop it from doing that?

It seems whenever I use YouTube with Firefox, the YouTube video will only ever let me interact with it unless I go full screen then hit escape. if i don't, I can't type in the text box below the video. even stranger, if I go to a new tab and try to enter something into, say, Google, I can still pause and un-pause the you tube video, even in the other tab, just by trying to type in a text box. Why is this happened, and how can I make it stop? it is starting to get very disruptive.

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 14 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

My artwork and images keep resizing at random how to I stop this from happening ?

I have tried to PIN / LOCK the images but nothing is working, pulling my hair out - When I add an image to a slideshow then upload to FTP then i go online all the images are mis aligned and re sized - I have to go back and re-set them all again. done this multiple times for days and its beyond a joke now. I have a multiple galleries (its a photography site) Please HELP I'm drowning here in a time sponge.
I also notice for no reason also at random some images are pixelated when they show up on my site - they have all been saved the same way but maybe 5% of them come out foggy looking and not like the original Jpeg I saved for the site.

Hello,
Since Muse optimizes the images for web, they might not look as expected.
You can check the below links for this issue:-

I don't know, Maybe Office 2008 doesn't play nice with Lion. Was 2008 working previously with Lion? Did you have these problems with Snow Leopard?
Here's MS's instructions for uninstalling Office 2008.
How to completely remove Office 2008 for Mac
All I can suggest is uninstalling and starting over with a fresh installation.
Alternatively don't use Office at all. Instead use one of the Office substitues that supports Word documents (OpenOffice, LibreOffice, NeoOffice). Also there's Apple's Pages and MS Office 2011.

Firefox keeps focusing on a tab when i drag and move tabs around while in a different tab. Can i some how disable or stop it from doing that?

Minor Question
i loved being able to use this setting/feature(?) before, and it's really annoying now that every time i drag a tab while in a different one it goes immediately to the tab i'm dragging. i use to do it all the time but now it doesn't work. Hoping for some way around it!? thanks in advance.
