Howdy carpetjim,
When you change the folder location like that, it changes where new songs and media are stored. To actually load the library you need to do this:
Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
If you are using the Mac, open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option key.
You should see one of the following screens:
Additional information
If you do not see one of the screens above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.

All my apps. are automatically shutting off when I try to use them.. They were working just fine yesterday, and today they just kick me back to my home screen! How do I get them to start working again. And my sleep/wake button is broken... so how do I reset if that is the solution?

I recently upgraded to Mavericks and now don't have access to iphoto. I cannot find my iphoto library to back the photos up before upgrading the iphoto but see the photos when I try to change screensaver? Where are my photos so I can back them up?
The iPhoto library should be in your user folder/Pictures unless it was moved.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

My old computer crashed and I was able to copy my music from my Ipod onto my new computer. When I upgraded to a new Ipod I was not able to access a lot of my music-I needed to authorize the new computer to play songs bought under the old apple ID. For the life of me I cannot remember what the password was, and when I try to reset it, the birthday that there to confirm it is me is the wrong date-so I can't go any further. If I go into an apple store will they be able to help? I have almost 100 songs that I have bought that I can't get to.
thanksHey teflonjimmy,
Thanks for the question. If you have lost track of the Apple ID email address or password, you can use our handy iForgot tool to recover the email address and/or password:

when trying to startup with install disc inserted,all i get is an apple logo.when using command v keys,it seems to see the cpu, but doesn't list any drivers.any idea what,s wrong?
That is the wrong system disc, the Mid 2007 Mac Mini's originally came with Tiger 10.4. You must have been sent the wrong disc, because that gray 10.6 system disc is obviously for a later Mac.
Mac mini (Mid 2007) - Technical Specifications
At this point I'm afraid that your options are very limited.
1. Call Apple, have your serial # handy and ask for a replacement Tiger disc set. Problem is that it wouldn't be of much use, except for maybe running the Apple Hardware Test.
Apple - Support - iMac - Service FAQ
2. Purchase a Retail Snow Leopard Upgrade disc.
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
As for the RAM, if 2GB is shown in both Apple / About This Mac and in the Activity Monitor then there is a pretty good chance that's it OK. Of course it is hard to test without the original disc set and in your case may need to be done with a third party RAM checker like Memtest OS X -
My Facetime will not work on my Macbook Pro. This has always worked in the past and now all the sudden it says that I have encountered a problem with the server and registration. I tried to check the date and time zone which is correct and I have no restrictions set.
I have the same issue. Does anybody know why this has happened

I have checked in my control panel for firefox it states that i have firefox version 3.6.8
Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.

type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter

Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset''''',
