  • Windows based WD external hard drive not showing up in Disk Utility to reformat to Mac... how can I erase the drive

    We have a WD external harddrive previously used with a PC that we want to completely erase and reformat for use with our iMac desktop for use with Time Machine.  The drive shows up on the desktop of the Mac, but it does not show up in Disk Utlity, assuming because it's Windows format.  Outside of the standard "erase" feature in Disk Utility, is there any way to reformat this drive for Mac OS X?  Or how can I get this drive to show up in Disk Utility?  Note: The drive functions properly, has power, and we are able to view its current contents through the desktop icon, so it is a working drive.  And we are ok with losing all the current data on the drive.

    Hmm strange, I had just moved my external Lacie drive from my windows machine to my iMac and it was showing up in disk utility still formatted fat32 or whatever. I would disconnect the drive and restart the machine then replug the drive and try again.
    Also not that it will make a difference ( I dont think it will but hey why not ) try accessing disk utility from the install disk?

  • I just ran migration assistant, and now I have two accounts on my new iMac...how do I merge my iPhoto libraries?

    I just ran migration assistant, and now I have two accounts on my new iMac...how do I merge my iPhoto libraries? Is there anyway to do it without using an external hard drive?

    Yes there is.
    1: Log out and into the account you later want to remove.
    2: Open your Pictures folder and look for the iPhoto Library.
    3: Right or control click on it, a menu appears and choose the option "Show Package Contents", it's really a folder.
    4: Find the folder called "Originals", select it and use the Finder menu to Duplicate it.
    5: Move the Copy of Originals to the Desktop. Close the window.
    6: From the Finder menu, select Go Computer.
    7: A window appears with your boot drive, double click it and on the Users folder inside.
    8: Select the OTHER users folder and open the folder called Public, inside is a folder called "DropBox"
    9: Drag the Copy of Originals to that DropBox folder, it will copy it.
    10. Log out and into the other account and access the DropBox folder, your files can then be imported into that iPhoto user Library from within the program itself.

  • Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

  • Migration Assistant on MBP not recognising my old (Leopard) Mac

    I have a new MBP and I'd like to migrate some of my account from my old Mac running Leopard. When I run Migration Assistant on the MBP it can seem to find the old Mac. They are connected via ethernet and a modem/router and I am able to see and login to the old Mac via Network Folder on the MBP.
    Is it possible to use Migration Assistant in this way. What alternatives do I have, obviously doing a TIme Machine isn't an option being Leopard on the old Mac. I could manual take Mail folde, iTunes folder r and Safari bookmarks and forget the rest but figured there's a way to get Migration Assistant to do this.

    Did you do software update on your old mac right before you tried this? You need to make sure it's got the latest version of Migration Assistant that it's compatible with.

    What you should see on a restart is a black screen followed by a screen with the Apple (at which point you let go of the two buttons). There is no progress bar, just the Apple. The Apple will stay there for 15 seconds or so, then the "Slide to Unlock" screen will redisplay.
    But, I don't think the reset will fix it for you. I just tested it, and it comes back on with the zoom still on. The only way to get it to zoom out is the tapping with the 3 fingers.
    I said to double-tap....MY BAD! You need to triple-tap with three fingers!
    Try that and see if it will display the zoom menu for you, or if it will zoom back out.

  • HT4798 Was installing new ios 7 and it asked for acct and password. it did not like and said it would email a new password. no email received. can not figure the Apple support screens to find a phone number to call. help.

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

  • After upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS6, my Find My Friends app no longer links to my Contacts and does not show contact names. It only shows e-mail addresses and does not link up to the corresponding email address in my Contacts. How can I fix this?

    I am also having problems with a site I am building. No matter what websafe font I use it displays as New Times Roman in FireFox. The correct fonts show in both IE9 and Chrome.
    In addition, text shifts in FireFox. I have to position other text objects farther and farther apart as I go down the page or they start to overlap. Nav buttons and other images also have to be positioned in the wrong place for them to be in the correct place when the page is opened in FireFox. FireFox should display pages correctly by default. I can't expect th average user to have to tweek his/her settings to display my site.
    I have been recommending FireFox on my website as the best browser. I might have to change that and abandon FireFox myself.

  • Seems like the iTunes app has lost most of my music. How can I get my music back?

    Seems like the iTunes app has lost most of my music. How can I get my music back?

    A new version shouldn't do that but it does seem to happen on occasion to a few unlucky ones.  Restore your library from the backup you make of your computer before you install new software.  If you don't have one, this is a learning experience.
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • I am currently using FormsCentral to distribute a form created in Acrobat. I need to add an option to one of the drop down fields but do not want to re-distribute the form due to reporting purposes. How can I do this?

       I am currently using FormsCentral to distribute a form created in Acrobat. I need to add an option to one of the drop down fields but do not want to re-distribute the form due to reporting purposes. How can I do this?

    You can open the form in Acrobat, select "File > Save a Copy", open the copy you just saved (it doesn't happen automatically), edit the dropdown to add the new item, save as a new file, and then Reader-enable the file by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools. The resulting PDF should work with FormsCentral just like the original.

  • I want ro remove all of the default Firefox bookmarks. There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me. I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    I need to remove the default Firefox bookmarks.
    There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me.
    Also, I am vision impaired and reading through such a long list is very eye-fatigueing to me.

    Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
    The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    For the annoying start-up message:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I think the other devices are fine.  I'm not sure.  It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week.  I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it.  It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.
