  • Hide music from the All my Files tab

    I've been consolidating files, deleting and generally clearing up my iMac.
    In the All My Files tab in Finder i was wondering if there was a way to hide all the music that I have consolidated in iTunes.
    Like the same affect iPhoto has. If a photo is in iPhoto it won't appear but if it's on my computer elsewhere then it will show up in the All My Files tab.
    I don't want to see it, I'd prefer to see music that isn't in my library so I know what to copy in.
    Thanks.

    Not certain, but try adding the enclosing folder to the Privacy tab of Spotlight.
    You can't set a criteria such as, "not in folder X" as that criteria isn't implemented.

  • I bought an i pad as second owner, the first owner said he just open it but when i returned to my twon, i realized that he make account and download some programes, i lost the opportunity to download free I work programes how can i solve this problem

    i bought an i pad (4) on 2014 as second owner, the first owner said he just open it but when i returned to my town, i realized that he make account and download some programs, i lost the opportunity to download free I work programs how can i solve this problem?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for the original owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must contact the original owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the original owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.
    IF the iPad is working ok but is signed in to another users Apple ID use the Settings app to sign out of the old ID and sign in to your Apple ID.
    Settings > itunes and App Store > tap on the applie ID and sign out > sign in with your Apple ID.
    you should then be able to download or purchase apps using your Apple ID.

  • Good day, I forgot to answer the security question for shopping with my account, how can I recover them?

    1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting

    2. Here are two different but direct methods:
        a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for
            support and service.

  • My previous ipod touch quit working and I lost all the songs I had purchased on it. How can I recover these songs if I can't sync the iPod?

    I had a 1st Gen iPod Touch that quit working on me. I had 30-40 songs on it that I had purchased from the iTunes App that I didn't sync back to my computer. How do I recover those lost songs so I can put them on my new iPod?

    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_pre-release_versions
    The Firefox 4.0 beta version should have installed in a separate program folder, so your old setup should still be there.<br />
    See:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
    If you do want to use the 4.0 beta version then you should create a new profile for that version.<br />

  • On my email page, I've lost the 3-line menu icon in upper right -- how can I get it back?

    I inadvertently lost the little 3-line menu icon in the upper right corner of my email page. What can I do to get it back? I've tried pressing Alt and also Ctrl+Alt, as some instructions suggest, and nothing happens.

    You probably have disabled the Mail Toolbar. Press F10 and choose View -> Toolbars and check Mail Toolbar.

  • I just tried downloading 4, replaced 3.6 with this new version that is not supported on my system. I'm using a Mac 10.4.11. I have lost the previous version that I was using. How can I get it back?

    I googled Firefox and tried to download the version I was using and it again downloaded this new version.
    I have no Firefox to use!
    Is there a way to get the 3.6 version back?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer you can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • I've deleted the Recently Added file under PLAYLIST on iTunes how can I re-instate it?

    Anyone knows?

    Thanks, it works but the settings are confusing. All I want is to make sure  that whatever I download gets updated.
    "A new smart playlist which lists items added in the last 2 weeks"... where do I specify this  and I don't see anything that allows to include or exclude podcasts or whatever you choose to include/exclude?...

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • New itunes update put the time duration for playlists at hours. How can I change it back?

    Normally you would click on the time and it would toggle between hours and MM:SS format. Now it just stays as hours. Apple is just making it super hard to burn CD's at times just under 80 minutes.

    Delete them and then download them from the desired Apple ID.

  • I have lost all my music in my itunes library, how can i recover my music?

    how can i recover my itunes library after it has been deleted?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • I seem to have lost iphoto and iphoto library on my iMac.  How can I recover?

    iPhoto disappeared from my toolbar. I found an "iphoto library" in the trash can but it has today's date and when I access it it includes only a very limited number of my photos.
    What can I do to try to find or recover my photos?

    lets start by getting iPhoto back in the DOCK  --  launch it from the applications folder and in the DOCK right click and select keep in DOCK
    as to backup - yes you must set backups up and keep them runing - the best first backup IMHO is Time Machine, it needa an external drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) that is at least 2 1/2 times the size of your main drive
    As to your current problem - start by depressing the option key and launching iPhoto - use the select library command - what do you see? If there are multiple iPhoto libraries check one
