Old iCal-Calandars stay somewhere in cache and won't go away when syncing
Hey guys,
this should be an easy question but it disturbes me for months now.
I have old and outdated Calandars on my iPhone.
All i want is to have exactly the content i use in iCal ond my iPhone.
I know there is a marker to replace the stuff that is on my Mac with the one on my iPhone but it does not work .
When i plug my iPhone on my iMac I can see those old Calandars in the iTunes Overview but I can't replace or delete them.
Is there any chane to get rid of those old calandars?
It might be a Problem that the old ones have exactly the same name as the new ones.
One example would be the Birthday Calandar.
My old one ist outdated and got wrong entries but i simply can't get rid of it.
This leads to doubled entries and wrong entries
I'm a bit lost here!
Hope you can help me!
Thanks in advance
Patrick
Ps: sorry for my english as its not my native language hope you got it
I had a similar problem where I kept deleting the calendar data files and iCal preferences, only to startup iCal and have the old data appear in calendars.
After quitting iTunes, and killing the files, iCal was clean again.

Reminders Notifications in Mountain Lion latest update keeps freezing on my homescreen and won't go away when trying to close. Please help.
I'm using a 2009 Macbook Pro and have installed the lastest update 10.8.1I've been seeing this for some time now and getting quite sick of it. It happens when I've been away at work for the day and come home to find frozen notifications.
You can fix this temporarily by quitting Notification Centre from Activity Monitor but it keeps happening to me every week or so. -
On G4 Powerbook System Preferences, Network, have a dropdown menu that says this has been configured by another application. when press OK it keeps coming on & can't work in System Preferences. It won't even respond to Quit System Preferences and I have to Force Quit to close System Pref.
Any ideas?Look at this link. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9372513
I did BDAqua's suggestion
To stop the pop-up, Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.

I not so recently changed my email adress I associated with my Apple ID and my iCloud ID. My old email still shows up for iCloud, and won't let me change it to my new email. When I try to delete it and replace it with the proper email, it wants my password, which it won't accept because it's an invalid username.
I had this same issue and got it resolved very simply when I contacted Apple SUpport
Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and sign into your infomation
> Go to Manage apple id and primary email address
> Change it to the old apple id that your device is asking for
> Save changes
> Go to Settings > iCloud and sign out of the infomation
> Go back to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
> Change it back to the correct apple id
> Go to the email address adn reverify the apple id
> Sign back into iCloud on your device

Green emblem has appeared on the lower left desktop and won't go away.
a few days ago, a small green emblem that looks like a D followed by a reversed C with an X through it has appeared on my desktop in the lower left corner and won't go away. it is on top of everything else on the desktop and is the first thing to appear on startup and the last thing to go on shutdown.
it is there even during the startup screen when the apple appears.
does anyone know what this is and how to correct whatever is occuring in my G4 running OSX.3.9?? thanks.
G4 Quicksilver AGP Graphics 500 Mac OS X (10.3.9)what do you know. i thought to myself, what would be the simplest solution here that we may be missing. and i tried another monitor. emblem gone.
i guess my old sony VGA monitor has an issue that it is trying to tell me about. in any event, we're good for now. that is a relief.
thanks so much for working with me on this.
With the emblem displaying, hold down the Shift,
Command, and 4 keys simultaneously and take a
screenshot of that area of the screen; if it shows
up, it is present in the computer's offscreen buffer,
and is therefore caused by software. If not, it may
be generated by a process which is drawing directly
to the screen, or it is a hardware issue. Since it
appears at the screen with the Apple logo, it isn't
running under your account, as the contents of your
home folder aren't even consulted until the progress
bar which appears later disappears. It cannot be one
of the Startup Items that may have been set up in the
Accounts pane of System Preferences.
Anything which would make a change at the Apple
screen would need to be running as root; most often,
this would require that you type in your
administrator password, but there are other ways of
having a process run as root.
In addition, restart your computer from a Mac OS X
installation CD and see whether or not the emblem
appears; this may help determine where it is coming
from.

I've just restored from a computer crash and re installed Creative Cloud 6 on my clean computer. Since then I've tried to use illustrator but can't get the type tool to function. It appears but has a small circle with a strike through on the bottom right corner and won't insert words when I type. I'm a newbie to illustrator and other Adobe products so please be gentle. Thanks for any help.
Thanks for your suggestion.
This was a bigger problem than I thought so I contacted support. The type issue was fixed in the repair.
BTW I am running Creative Cloud 2014 and not cc6 like I thought. Also on PC Windows 7
Here is the result:
I also have had a difficult time with Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 crashing upon launch. The support staff was great even though we had to work through several sessions. Below is the email explaining our final session.
This email is in regards with the issue you had been facing with Illustrator CC 2014.
While going through the installer logs, we found that there was an issue with the installation & the program installer had been denied access to several critical files & folders during installation.
This was the main reason for Illustrator crash as several critical components had not been installed properly.
We tried installing the program in a new user account & that worked.
Though the program has been installed properly now & is working in your old account, I will still strongly recommend you to get your computer user account repaired with a Windows 7 operating system diskette.
This is required so that you do not run into more trouble later while working with the Adobe Applications or even while installing other programs.
Avanish Divya was the final support person that successfully resolved my problems.
I hope this helps other panicked users. -
What do I do? I have already downloaded OS Yosemite (it says so on my Apple>About this mac>overview) but now I keep getting a message from "install Yosemite" that keeps asking me to install Yosemite again and won't go away.
I have the same issue. My computer has also slowed down. I hope this isn't a malware. I haven't input my password into it, and dont know what I did to turn this on.
Hope someone else can give some insight -
Every time I click on something, the spinning wheel of death pops up and won't go away.
I restarted my computer recently, and ever since, the "spinning wheel of death" pops up and won't go away, every single time I click on something. It's getting really annoying, and I just need to do my school work on it. Please help. Someone!

I don't understand why recently with the new "pages" my computer stops responding. When I go to fix some grammar all of a sudden the little colored circle begins to appear and won't go away I restart my computer.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful. -

Call Apple Care. You are still under warranty. You also have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your iPod with no questions asked.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. -
My little brother stole my iPod touch and when I got it back I tried to turn it on and it goes to the apple logo, which its usual, then it gets stuck on a Playboy bunny logo and won't go away.
connect it in recovery mode, then restore from your backup.

Lets say I have a website called xyz, I would like to keep the cache from this site and have everything else deleted when I close the browser.
The involved CSS code can be found in this file that you can open via the location bar.
* chrome://global/skin/autocomplete.css
Look for class .ac-emphasize-text and apply modified rules as you like.
You need to add the !important flag to override rules.
Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
@namespace html url("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml");
html|span.ac-emphasize-text {
box-shadow: none!important;
background-color: transparent !important;
border-radius: 0px;
text-shadow: none !important;
</nowiki></pre>
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
* Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
* Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
* Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
* Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file -
Contacts and address book wiped out when syncing iphone
HELP!! All my address book contacts on my computer and all my iphone contacts were wiped out after syncing. Sadly, I have never backed up. I've gotten as far as library>app support>address book, but the files are computer mumbo jumbo with bits and pieces of my old info thrown in. Is there any way to convert this to human speak??? Thanks,
Desperately seeking my info backContact info is included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated if needed as the first step during the sync process - if any of the data on your iPhone that is included with the backup has changed since the last sync.
If you haven't synced your iPhone again since the contact info was lost with the last sync, do not sync again and try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
If this restores your contact info, before syncing contact info with the Address Book on your Mac, enter one unique contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make the contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This should provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info, which you want to select.
