Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current? Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud?
I have 2 questions about the new Photos app for Mac (I'm running 10.10.3 on my MacBook Air 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 mid 2012)):
1.Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?
2. Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud? That would free 59GB off my Mac and that would be very good.

You can, but I would wait, until you have have been working with Photos for some time and are sure, that everything migrated well. There may be hidden flaws in your library and teething problems with Photos. Don't be in a hurry to abandon iPhoto completely. You may need to go back, until bugs have been fixed. Th Photos Library does not duplicate the photos in your iPhoto Library. the media files are shared and do not need extra space: See: Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support

If you have enough iCloud storage. But Photos will still need space for local thumbnails on all devices.
See: Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
Fill your library, not your device.
iCloud Photo Library can help you make the most of the space on your Mac. When you choose “Optimize Mac Storage,” all your full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud in their original formats, with storage-saving versions kept on your Mac as space is needed. You can also optimize storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, so you can access more photos and videos than ever before. You get 5GB of free storage in iCloud — and as your library grows, you have the option to choose a plan for up to 1TB.

My mom updated her iPhone to iOS7, and now she has my contacts. Does this mean that she has access to all of my photos as well? How can she 'unlink' our phones? Or, is there anyway that I can get my stuff to disappear from her phone? We share iTunes account so I think we are both on the same iCloud.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are using the same ID as a primary iCloud login, then yes she can see your photos in photostream if you have it enabled.
You can use the same ID for iTunes so you can share all your purchases, but you need different ID's for iCloud.
Unfortunately, the mess caused by sharing the ID, will need to be sorted manually, once you both have your own ID's. -
I have recently had my MacBook Pro and iPad stolen so I have bought a new iPad, since syncing to my existing Apple ID account I keep getting another Apple ID popping up asking for the password. Does this mean that the owner of this appe ID have my stuff?
You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

Does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last ios update for ipad 2 and iphone 4s?
With the release of ios 6.0.2, which is only available for the iphone 5 (and ipad mini) does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last software update for the 4s?
As that was only a bugfix update specific to those devices, no.

Hi Apple Team, I would like to change the iCloud account on my iPhone, however it says I must 'delete the account' before doing so? Does this mean that I delete the entire existing account, or just delete it from my phone specifically?
From the iPhone only.

So does this mean that I cannot have rotation lock off and the mute function off at the same time? In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
Yes, you can. You can configure the Side Switch (above the volume button) either as Mute switch or Rotation lock.

When I check the settings the wi-fi says it's not connected so I follow the symbol > and then the wi-fi says it's ON and I see my network name. Does this mean that I'm connected to my wi-fi or not? I'm also set up on a Network.
If it says you are not connected, then you are in fact not connected. The symptoms you described, for example, would appear if your router were working correctly but you entered an incorrect network (WPA or WPA2) password and therefore failed to sign on to your network.
You might try clicking the white arrow in the blue circle next to your network name and choosing "Forget this network". Then reset your iPhone by holding the home and on/off buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then see what happens when your network appears. -
Does this mean that the rip App is already installed?
Hi, In Mac Formats THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO MOUNTAIN LION, in ‘Master iTunes 11’, it suggested that if you wanted to rip a cd, you can import audio tracks from your hard drive using File - Add to library…. or rip music from your CD’s. Does this mean that the rip App is already installed, or does it mean I need to purchase a rip App?
Hi again,
Sorry, I should have mentioned, I have no disc drive, so I have got to use my old PC and the drive on that!
What I get to move over to my MacBook Air are .cda tracks, are they convertable for ripping?
My Mac seems to go silent/invisable?
I am sure that Iam missing a fair bit of knowledge for this move, any help would be appreciated.
Cheers, -
I opened a file on my desktop that I don't remember putting there. We use many photos and I thought it was a photo file I was looking for. It turned out to be a keychain certificate from a client of ours. Does this mean that they were spying on me? What is the deal with that? Any ideas?
Interesting tid bit. I created an AAC of the original file, deleted the original MP3 from my library and also deleted the Clean matched track from the icloud.
Result is that it matched with the explicit version of Mrs. Officer this time.
What I am curious about is which songs this is happening for. I've went thru a few batched of about 500 songs at a time and redownloaded in 256k for many tracks. Sadly we don't have people to bring this to our attention and I have so much music that it's impossible to go thru every song to make sure I am getting the right version. -
I have the iphone 3Gs and an old Powerbookb but whatsapp is no longer functioning. Does this mean that soon I'll have to throw away this useless phone?
If Whatsapp is on your iPhone now and is not working, that would be a matter for Whatsapp support.
If you cannot install Whatapp due to iOS on your computer being to old, you can try upgrading iTunes to 10.6.3, if you haven't done so already, presuming your PB is running Mac OS X 10.5.8, which may allow you to upgrade iOS on your iPhone. If your computer is not running 10.5, then you'll need to find a retail copy of 10.5 and upgrade.
The last PowerBook was discontinued seven years ago, though, so it may be time to consider upgrading to an Intel-based MacBook.

If I have run out of room on my icloud, does this mean that apps or photos will not be downloaded to my other devices? Many thanks for your help
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Apps in iTunes in the cloud and photos in photostream do not use your allocated i~Cloud space. -

I need to bulk upload images from iPhoto to Auctiva (auction software) that will then be posted to eBay; however Java was disabled on my computer some time ago due to "known issues." I have 10.5.8 so does this mean that I can't use Java? If not, then is there a workaround to be able to use the bulk uploader from Auctiva? As it stands now, I have to upload photos individually which is super time consuming.
You can re-enable it for special purposes, opposite of disabling it...
Disable Java in your Browser settings, not JavaScript.
