You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

Status keeps changing from invisible to online: why the issue is ignored?

There is a serious issue raised in the parallel thread, which is critical for many people: "Status keeps changing from invisible to online" (initiated on ‎16-11-2014 by b.agne, Mac section). In short, when starting using a device, the Skype status changing from "invisible" to "online" - sometimes just for a moment, though enough for others to notice you. These affects very much any type of devices. I am sure the issue has already led to multiple personal crisises and potentially financial losses due to buseness partnership issues (I came close to that myself, and now use anything but Skype for business). The question is: WHY the issue is completely ignored by Skype, Microsoft and expert comunity? Please post the solution if anybody knows how to fix the issue, or suggest how to make Microsoft to know that it should be fixed. Kind regard...

Hi, I also have the same issue. I change the status to Invisible and a later on it is already as "Online", without having even touched/opened Skype. The only way that I see this may happen is that I have the app installed on the smartphone, but before it never had this issue, but from some month ago it started. Any correction or suggestion to work around this issue? Regards

Well, when I've done URL connections from an applet session and cookies seem to have sorted themselves out. I'm not sure how, but there seems to be some functionality for it in the URLConnection class.
I haven't tried setting the method like this, I always cast to HttpURLConnection and call setMethod to select POST. Your way might be right as well though.
Have you checked the server access logs?
It may be that your URL is rejected by the security manager for not having the same form of the hostname as the original applet retrieval.
You should be able to get a domain name and port from the "code source" of your code, which will reference the online jar it comes from. You can generally get at this as getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation(), or less elegantly by requesting the current class file as a resource.

In your case you can only restore from a backup that has been created with the same iOS version. An iPhone 4 can only run 7.1.2, and, unless your iPhone 5 did not run the same version, you can't use a newer iOS backup of the 5 on the iPhone 4

Can I delete files in "All My Files" under Finder and Favorites without deleting them in the actual folders? If they will be deleted from the original folders then how do I put them on the external hard drive to save the documents, photos, and videos?

Switch to the Finder app and open its preferences.
Remove the check mark on the items you don't want displayed in the Sidebar tab.
The originals are not removed from the machine.

Opened Notes and screen changed from listing my notes to no notes. How do I recover them? TY

Opened Notes and screen changed from listing my notes to no notes. How do I recover the missing notes?

Would you please explain how you did this? Most of my Notes dissapeared after the latest update. I tried restoring them from TM, but nothing shows up and QuickLook only shows (null). I took them from the IMAPnote file under (eventually) CoreData (~Library/Containers...), but that is not working for me. My Notes are synced with iCloud, so my solution may be different from yours.
Thank you.

In Pages 09 we can do Mail Merge and Import Styles from a document. Can someone please explain how we can do this with the new version of Pages 5.1. Even Apple solutions are only valid for Pages Version 09. What a DOWN GRADE!

In Pages 09 we can do Mail Merge and Import Styles from a document. Can someone please explain how we can do this with the new version of Pages 5.1. Even Apple solutions are only valid for Pages Version 09. What a DOWN GRADE! Thank god Pages 09 is still there.

…and the other 98 missing features.
Just use Pages '09, which should be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store.

I cannot find a document I prepared yesterday. How do I locate it in the external backup disc

I cannot find a document I prepared yesterday. How do I locate it in the external backup disc

(1) Look in the System's Recent items, maybe it's available in this list) [ it's in the  menu ]
(2) Use the Finder's Search tool (cmd + F) asking it to retrieve files whose name ends with ".numbers"
And next time, take care of what you do.

HT1449 After moving music and movies from my MacBook Air to an external hard drive, do I create a new iTunes music and media folder on my computer then add more music and movies, then will I be able to move the computer music/media to the hard drive musci

I need to move the music and movies from my MacBook Air (original) to an external hard drive, after I do this, do I create a new music folder and media folder on my computer to load music/movies in via the dedicatd external drive and then would I be able to move the newly imported to the external drive which would be my main site of storage?

No, do it all in one go and henceforth only use the library located on the external drive.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

External HDD keeps changing from HFS to NTFS

Greetings,
This is my first post and I am also brand new to apple. I have an issue that I am wondering if anybody has experienced it.
I currently migrated from an old PC (XP SP3) to OSX. I have files on an external HDD that was used on the PC that I now want to use on the mac. (Formatted NTFS)
Now I know that NTFS is not writable in OSX but here is where my issue lies.
I currently have a MB463LL/A model with 2.26 and 4GB. I am currently using a 250GB ext HDD for backup purposes for a photography business (not using Time Machine yet). I recently transferred the files to another external HDD, 1TB, (as to not lose the photos) and used disk utility to erase the 250GB disk and formatted it using the HFS Extended format. (might not be the correct one so correct me if I am using the wrong format please.)
After transferring the files back to the HDD, the HFS reverted back to NTFS, and I am unable to write to the drive again.
Any suggestions as to what is happening?

After transferring the files back to the HDD, the HFS reverted back to NTFS, and I am unable to write to the drive again.
Are you 100% positive it is NTFS again (I am seriously doubting it could do that))? Does it say so in Disk Utility, or are you just interpreting it is because you have write problems?

HT201625 iTunes unable to locate iTunes Media Folder after transfer from PC to Mac?

Hello
I recently purchased a new Mac Mini, and have been attempting to transfer everything from my old PC to it.
One of these things is my extensive iTunes library, including all of the media, and my iOS devices back-ups. I've been following these first two articles to the letter, as I was using an external drive to transfer my media (my iTunes library and Media folder were already on an external hard drive when in use on my PC):
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support
Back up your iTunes library by copying it to an external drive - Apple Support
Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple Support
However, after following the second link all the way through without issue, i've run into difficultly at the final stage (screen shot below):
I am able to find the iTunes Library file. It is called 'iTunes Library.itl'. I click, and it seems like everything is fine as iTunes opens up.
However, none of my media can be found. The only media shown is that which I have purchased via the iTunes store (as I have logged in, which has been successful). I have tried checking in preferences, but I have definitely linked to the right folder as well (see below screenshot).
I'm at a loss at what to do next! Any ideas why this might be happening appreciated.

It seems you have done everything correctly, with the iTunes Music folder in your iTunes folder like this. When you double-click the iTunes Music folder do you see all your songs etc.?
If so, leave everything as is and try a reinstall of iTunes. It might just work.
OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac
Edit: I just noticed your music folder is named iTunes Media, which may be the Windows way. Rename it as iTunes Music.

My media folder keeps changing from my external HDD back to my cpu. How do I keep it on the external HDD?
