Photostream enabled but not synching on Mac
I have photostream enabled on iPhoto 9.6, but it stopped synching all of my photos. I have installed all updated and restarted, but it won't pull in the rest of my pictures. Any ideas on how to fix it?
in the iPhoto preferences turn PS off and log out of iCloud - reboot and log back in and turn PS back on and you should be OK

I have a laptop Mac and an Ipad, and would like to transfer pictures, videos, etc from the ipad to the Mac but not from the Mac to the Ipad, how can I set up the iCloud in both devises to do so?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box. -
Ical not synching with .mac account
We have our set up in our preferences to sync ical with our .mac account, so we can access it away from home. Everytime we log on to our account, it still show it hasn't ben synched, although when I go in the preferences, it shows the box checked so it should sync. Any suggestions? This is frustrating, because it is showing not synched in .mac account and synched on my computer....
iCal does get synced with the .Mac servers, but there is no webinterface available for calendars. However, you can sync your iCal between multiple Macs using that feature.
The only way to access your calender using any machine and the web is to publish your calender. See here for more details:

My reader will not open a PDF file that I have downloaded from a government web site (an application form) - it states that the file is not good. I can open on the web site but not from my mac computer.
Maybe this: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html ?
Do you have a link to that document? -
Can you please advise how to show a blank or clear cell as the first option in a pop -up menu on a Mac, I can see how on an IPad but but not on the Mac.
Thank you.Hi grm,
Yvan Koenig wrote an Applescript to create an popup menu with a true blank menu item. You can find it in Yvan's Box Account public area. Click on for_iWork'09, then for-numbers'09, then look for and download popup_with_nil.zip. Unzip the file, then open it with ScriptEditor.
Yvan's scripts include instructions (in French and English) on how and where to save the script and how to use it. I haven't read this one recently, so I can't give you any further details on it.

I want to remove the header and footer when printing from my mac, I can do this in the Page Setup on my PC but not on the Mac. I can do it each time I print but then it resets. How do I make a universal change?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox openedGo to the "File" menu, then "Print." The window that appears will have three drop-down menus at the top.
The first is labeled "Printer",
The second is "Presets".
The third is unlabeled but has "Copies & Pages" selected by default.
Click on that third menu and select "Firefox" near the bottom of the list. -

I have access to Facebook on a windows OS but not on my MAC.
My friend can access his FB and view his photos through his account, but I cannot view my photos, even with the same laptop and same browser -even when I log onto FB right after he logs off? Why?davidfromsouthburlington wrote:

You need to explain that. Do you mean :
You AND your friend can both view FB photos using Windows via Bootcamp on a Mac, but not in OS X?
You can both view your FB photos on a Windows PC but you can't on your Mac?
Your friend can see his FB photos on your Mac but you can't see yours? -
I want to delete certain emails on my Ipad but not on my mac. Right now when I delete message on ipad it moves message on mac to trash also. Can I change this?
If this is an IMAP account, that is how it is supposed to work. The whole point of IMAP is to keep your email synchronized across multiple access devices.
Instead of trash, you could move those files to a new IMAP folder you create, something like "ignore on iPad" folder. -

Register/Sync with iCloud on both your iOS devices and your Mac.

Hi I am having trouble with iMessage on the mac book pro, it doesnt sync with the ipad and iPhone, both the ipad and iPhone do but not on the mac book pro , has anyone any suggestions, thanks in advance
First, make sure that all your devices are using the same Apple ID in iMessages including your Mac. Second, your messages that you've already started on your devices will not show up on your Mac - only ones that you start from now on will show up. Third, if you're still not syncing accross all devices, make sure you read the directions on the first page of this thread. It should work after performing those steps. Good luck!

Device is enabled but not star
I have looked everywhere for a solution to this problem and found one:
Symtom:
Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit Device shows up in device manager correctly (no
! on it)
Device is enabled and is working properly.
Clicking on properties shows that the device is enabled but not started.
Creative Diagnostics indicates that only hardware driver passes testing, all others (midi,wave, etc) failed.
Control Panel -> Sound/Audio devices shows no audio devices.
Problem:
Plug and Play Device Emulator not listed in system devices.
Solution:
Copy C:\WINDOWS\inf\machine.inf to C:\temp
Edit C:\temp\machine.inf so that you delete the line that says ExcludeFromSelect:*
Go to Control Panel and add hardware.
Click Yes it is already connected.
Add new system device
Choose driver to install from list
Click on Have disk.
Browse to C:\temp\machine.inf
Select System Devices/Plug and Play Enumerator.
System Specs:
Windows XP SP2
Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit
Pentium 5 .5GHz
Gb PC2700 RAM
What I tried before doing this that didn't work:
* removing sound card from motherboard completely,
* tried reseating in each of 5 different pci slots
* uninstalling all sound drivers and devices
* reinstalling all creative software
* cleansweep of windows
* uninstall from device manager and allow windows to detect
* ctzapxx.exe on cd from creative.
* confirm on-board sound card was disabled in BIOS
None of those things seemed to work. I'm not sure why the plug and play device enumerator has to be there or what it does, but when I reinstalled that device, my sound card was working perfectly again.
I only post this because I see many people having similar problems!I had the exactly same problem with my new Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit card. (Device is enabled and is working properly, clicking on properties shows that the device is enabled but not started, Diagnostics indicates that only hardware driver passes testing, all others (midi,wave, etc) failed.)
This is a Perfect working solution!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
My "system" specs:
Windows XP SP2 (all updates available instaled)
Sound Blaster Li've 7. 24 bit BULK
CPU K6 II/400 MHz
RAM 256Mb PC33
Slots:
AGP (2x)
2 ISA
3 PCI 2.0!!!
Luckily for me, my problem was in the enumerator, not in my old PC.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN! -
Back to my mac - iCloud enabled, but not working
Last year I made very regular use of Back to My Mac. Time and again I had no problems using my Mac Book Pro and connecting to my Mac Pro back home - did this from all over the place.
Then last month, my DSL router died and I had to upgrade. The Netgear switch I had used stopped letting Back to My Mac work - turned out there was a glitch and I was one of the few who had a working unit, but not that it had tanked I could not get it back. All systems would get an error when trying to enable Back To My Mac instructing me to review my settings, enable UPnp, etc...
So now I have a new Netgear R6300 and my MiniMac, Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro all can have Back to My Mac checked without an error showing up. Can uncheck and re-check and the spinning wheel does it's thing and the box shows properly with no error. Great - but apparently not really. All these systems are in the same network, so of course they can see each other from within my network - no need for Back To My Mac at all.
But as soon as I try and connect from outside my network I can't. The Netgear R6300 provides a guest wireless network (that can't see or share the home network), so I can grab another IP address and effectively be outside my home with the Mac Book Pro. Again, no error when I look at iCloud - and I can uncheck and recheck the Back to My Mac box and the handshaking necessary seems to be fine - but I do not get my home systems appearing in the Finder Shared list as they once did.
The systems in my house can't see the Mac Book Pro either.
As I have a group of static IP addresses from Centurylink I can use a fireware adapter and directly connect a network cable to the M1000 DSL modem - and directly pull one of my other IP addresses for the Mac Book Pro and have it completely out from under the Netgear R6300. But the situation is the same - the Mac Pro and Mini Mac both appear to be configuered for Back to My Mac (can check, un-check and recheck without an error), but they can't see the Mac Book Pro. Likewise the Mac Book Pro appears properly set for Back To My Mac - but it can't see either the Mac Pro or the Mini Mac.
It makes no difference whether I enable the Centurylink M1000 DSL firewall or have it disabled. UPnP is activated on the Netgear R6300, and if I turn it off I get an error when trying to set up Back to My Mac with any system funneling through the R6300 that the connection can't be made and I should check things like UPnP. So when it is enabled there certainly seems to be at least some sort of semi proper handshaking going on.
For diagnostic purposes only, I have stretched a really long Cat 6 cable accross the room and plugged the Mac Pro directly into the M1000 DSL too - pulling yet another static IP from my assigned block. Now the Mac Book Pro and the Mac Pro can see each other via Back to My Mac - but neither can see the Mini Mac, and it of coruse can't see either of them.
I am not wedded to Netgear, but I have had lousy luck with Linksys and Asus - the Asus. The Mini Mac is a server (web and email) and Asus would not properly route mail to the Mini Mac and their Tech support was both difficult to reach and unable to explain why, just go try another. The Linksis EA6500 was dead out of the box, and again Tech support suggested to just go get another one. Asus was truly horrible to work with, but I would try another Linksis - but I have had flakey history with Belkin and Linksis which is why I went to Netgear.
So I know that the Centurylink M1000 does not appear to be the issue as devices connected directly to it can enjoy Back to My Mac. I know that the Netgear R6300 appears to be working but clearly there must be something wrong somewhere.
I don't seem to be caught in a double NAT issue, and I don't have extreme firewall issues in play. Much as I would like and intend to put stiffer rules in place, right now I just want to get thigns working.
Clearly I am missing something. Suggestions - even for a different router know to be working in a small but robust network with cable and wireless would be most welcome. All three systems are running OS X 10.8.3 - the Mini Mac also running server. Both the Netgear R3600 and the Centurylink M1000 have the latest firmware.
Thanks in advance for your help.Is the Extreme in bridge or router mode.. most people are finding it has to be in router mode to work although I don't think that is specific in the instructions..
You should not need to access the extreme to get into the Mac though.. do you have a hard disk on the AE you are trying to access?? -
Bash script running on my MBP 10.7.4 but not on other Macs (all 10.7.4)
A friend of mine wrote me this short script to run in terminal that downloads a particular file every n seconds from a password protectected FTP site. The script worked on his linux machine and on my Mac but not on my collegues Macs. I'm wondering if anybody knows reasons why it may be failing on other Macs.
We changing the first line from: #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash
and exceuting with
user_prompt_$ bash ./download_stats.sh
Another idea is to script cyberduck but it doesn't support applescript though may have a comand line interface (looking into that at present).
There error output from one of the accounts it fails on follows the script listing.

PDF images visible in Adobe but not Preview or Mac Mail's Quick Look
I have a PDF that I am inserting an ad into. I copy and paste the ad from one PDF into another. The problem I am having is when I have the final 10-page PDF with the ad inserted in it, you can open the 10-page PDF in adobe and the ad will be visible, but if you open it in Preview or using Mac Mail's Quick Look, the ad isn't there. When I open the original file with the ad in it (that I copied and pasted the ad from) in Quick Look or Preview, the ad appears. I need to know why the ad isn't showing up after it is copy and pasted into a new PDF?
files can be viewed below or at this address:
http://6letters.com/help/
"lanai3_Grand Jewels-001Winning.pdf" is the document I am copying the ad from
"lanai_122211.pdf" is the document I am pasting the ad into. The ad is on page 10. The ad is viewable in Adobe Acrobat but not in Preview or Mac Mail's Quick Look.
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (version 9.4.6) to do the copy/paste/save.
I just clicked the above link and the ad doesn't show up online now either. It is supposed to be in the blank space on page 10.
Any help much appreciated!!!!!!Hi,
Acrobat 9 and older versions paste images as a stamp/comment which (that poorly functional) Preview cannot see, so you need to "flatten" the page if you want to see a pasted picture in Preview.
(Preview, Mail and QuickLook shares the same rendering library)
You can easily flatten one or several pages in a PDF using this free tools: http://abracadabrapdf.net/articles.php?lng=fr&pg=717
