    I can't migrate from a time machine Back up. I select my TC and it says "some backups can't be opened. Make sure that all of your network devices are connected and turned on. It appears that some backups are already in use. If you don't see the backup you need, make sure it is not currently mounted by another machine and try again."

    Read the section E about restore issues.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    But you should be able to mount the sparsebundle and backup the major items if they are not damaged. You might also do a disk verify to see if the corruption can be repaired.
    Have a look here also for restore of selected items.

  • I am running OS X 10.6.8.  iCloud says to download Lion 10.7.2.  I thought I was running Lion.  Selected software update and it says there is no new software for my system.  How do I know if I am running Lion?

    Is 10.6.x Snow Leopard and 10.7.x Lion?

    "Selected software update and it says there is no new software for my system."
    You already have all the free updates that are pertinent to Snow Leopard. Software Update only finds and installs free updates to your Apple software — it doesn't do anything with upgrades that must be purchased, like Lion. If you were to purchase and install Lion, Software Update would then find and offer to install all the free updates that are applicable to Lion.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • HT1420 i just got a new mac. and its saying no more than 5 computers can be autherized i only know of 2 others what can i do ?

    i just got a new mac. and its saying no more than 5 computers can be autherized i only know of 2 others what can i do ?

    There isn't currently a way of seeing a list of which computers are authorised, but have you had other computers in the past and/or upgraded the OS on your computers without first deauthorising them ? Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but as you have multiple computers authorised then you can log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need.

    I just bought an iTunes card in Spain but now I'm in Switzerland and it says it's not valid, what can I do?

    Sorry, but there's nothing you can do. iTunes Cards are valid only in the country of purchase. So you cannot use that card in the Swiss iTunes Store. Sell or give the card to someone back in Spain.

  • Adjust end of clip and move all other clips accordingly

    having found this help topic about trimming clips: Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Trimming clips, i figured i might be able to figure out how to adjust the end of a clip and move all subsequent media content accordingly.
    the situation would be: adding a word to dialogue, cutting out a word, something like that -- where you have to shorten or lengthen a clip, and you need to move all subsequent content accordingly.
    i used to know the name of the folks that did the study in the late 90's regarding help file "readability," which then resulted in the trend that help files don't offer the ability to dig deeper into the definitions of a software's vocabulary, but i forgot.
    at any rate:
    i don't know what the blue thing is called with which one moves around on adobe's timeline.
    now, i'm assuming i'll be able to dig that up.
    but i have a series of graphics -- and i want to move adjust the length of time graphic1 appears (let's say extend it's length). i'd like to "bump" or "move" or "ripple," or "roll," or "regular edit," the graphic so that -- when i move the right side of the graphic -- all subsequent graphics get "bumped" to the right (later in time).
    while i appreciate the alliteration of regular ripple and rolling edits, i did need to try them out to see what they do.
    and none of them appear to "bump" all subsequent content.
    i gather that i could "lasso" all of the subsequent content and nudge it and/or move it around -- but really -- i'd like to be in clip 19 -- adjust when that clip ends -- and move all subsequent content either later or earlier in time -- accordingly.
    ideally that "desire" would extent into: i am just going to move visual content, and "i am going to move visual and audio content."
    please have compassion for my "negative" tone, because i am having a bit of a "losing faith in humanity" moment right now - because i took about a 5 year break from tech and am now returning to tech -- and i expected user procedures to have improved.
    i'll be OK and will likely blog about it, but for now: can you either tell me some keyboard shortcuts or direct me to help files or just explain -- how to edit the various types of content in premiere the way i've outlined?
    i want to move all of the subsequent content over to the right. i do not want to just move the end of the last clip and the start of the next clip -- keeping the end of the next clip in the same place (which is apparently what the red double double arrow does).
    i seem to have tried out "regular, ripple, and roll," and maybe i'm almost there -- or one of those methods actually works -- but the word that is coming to mind is "bump."
    bump or nudge or adjust...
    anyway -- got any tips?

    hey Michael, your reply helps restore my faith in your humanity -- but seriously -- i need to use the "ripple delete tool" to NOT delete -- but extend and push?
    really?
    that is as obnoxious as going to the start button to shut down.
    how about going to the shut down button to start? how about that Bill Gates.
    and we still can't tell the difference between a lowercase l and an uppercase I online. Good job humanity. Sometimes even the 1 is the same as l and I  -- so you have 1lI  all looking the same.
    My 8 year old daughter thought I live in LLLinois? She was trying to read Illinois.
    Of course I have to go to "delete" to extend. What else? I have to go to start to shut down.
    ps --- that is why humanity has gone through the effort to call those thingies on doors: handles. See a handle can be used to open AND close a door.
    it is not the "close knob" it is the "door knob." why? because you can use it to open and close.
    it is not the on/off button -- though some call it that -- it is the "power" button.
    You go through the effort to create vocabulary that makes sense if you are going to create and sell software. I understand that sometimes it can be hard, but there are plenty of people, myself included, who have the intellectual capacity -- to find or create these kinds of cohesive procedural flows -- to a large extent due to our linguistic abilities.
    it's not rocket science, but it is, in a particular way -- quite difficult. it requires mental effort or some kind of "capacity," to realize that a "handle" often moves us between two or even more states -- like: open and closed.
    that is why we do not call it the "on" button.
    what does my HP printer have? oh it has an "on" button.
    dumb dumb dumb dumb
    more dumb
    and then -- i am even accosted with dumb -- from adobe?
    like awesome software industry standard adobe?
    like "we made PDF files" adobe?
    are you serious?
    ugh -- ok i will go to "delete" to NOT delete and extend
    i don't even care what that yellow thing is called anymore. i am just going to press command and click and get this project done for now...

  • IMovie HD 6.0.3: After making 10 movies where I clipped portions from a larger clip (and exported the smaller clips), suddenly iMovie clips are much shorter after I export them.

    Hi there,
    I am using iMovie HD 6.0.3 on an older MacBookPro (OS X, 10.4.11).
    I took an AVI video and imported that into iMovie HD.
    I then created smaller clips out of that - like editing a 20 minute video into small, 30 second clips.
    I made about 10 of these smaller clips, exported them using "expert settings," and burned the results to DVD. These all worked fine.
    Suddenly, the final product that I export is much shorter than the clip I created. For example, I'll create a 30 second smaller clip from the original. When I review this 30 second clip, it is what I wanted.
    When I export this 30 second clip, it makes a QuickTime movie that is only 23 seconds. (The first 10 I made did not do this).
    I tried extending my clip by 7 seconds, hoping to end up with a 30 second clip after exporting. The result was even shorter - like 15 seconds.
    I have checked disk space - it has at least 500 GB free space. I have tried exporting the clip to both my laptop and to an external hard drive. The results are the same.
    I just tried using the "crop" feature to see if my end product was better - but it was the same.
    Does anyone know what is going on? Why did this start after making 10 successful exports? What can I do to get it working right again, as I have 3 more clips to make and am running up against a deadline.
    Thanks so much!
    Heidi

    Since I can't edit this post... (Why?) I'd add: fast forwarding and fast reverse (shift key and arrow left or right) the HA files is also not smooth. They play alright. I'm surprised iMovie can't handle them either. I didn't have a problem with the earlier camcorder's HA files... (All were converted MTS files using Movie Converter.)

  • HT4061 How do I restore my iphone 4? Whilst updating to new software my computer crashed. This has left me with a phone that won't respond at all and itunes says 'restore your phone'. I can't press anything without getting a picture of a usb. not useful.

    My computer crashed while updating my iphone 4.
    My phone now will not respond other than a USB symbol to itunes.
    When I plug into itunes it says 'reset your phone'.
    I've tried holding the on/off and home button together, nothing.
    On another note, it isn't possible to schedule into a shop in London until a week today. There is something seriously wrong with this picture.
    Any help would be awesome.
    Thanks

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Firefox 5 apparrently changed a Windows setting, now I have artifacts remaining on top of my desktop when doing things like selecting a file and doing an open with selection.

    Ever since I my system updated to Firefox 5 I now have issues such as:

    Hi Steve1904,
    So you have use the backup and Restore to restore your files from Windows XP to Windows 7 directly?
    This should be considered not work.
    If you would like to transfer files between Windows XP and Windows 7, you need another tool called Windows Easy Transfer.
    See the article below if you would like to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7:
    Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
    If possible, follow the steps there, then things should be OK.
