Since I've updated my IMac to Yosemite, my screensaver preferences will not stay on IPhoto, it always reverts back to National Geographic pictures. Anyone have this problem?
I have an IMac from early 2009. I've updated the OS X to Yosemite to 10.10.1 and since I've updated it, my system screensaver preferences WILL allow me to set the screensaver to IPhoto, but after a few minutes, it always reverts back to National Geographic pictures. I tried putting ALL 18,000 of my pictures into a separate folder and choosing THAT folder for the screensaver, but again - it reverted back to the National Geographic pictures.
Is there any way I can set my screensaver preferences to IPhoto pictures? Am I missing something? Thanks for any input or suggestions.

Since I updated my Iphone to IOS 7, I have lost all calender entries oin my phone and it won't sync calenders on iitunes. Anyone have this problem?
I believe anilsudhakaran meant sign out and in with your Apple ID for iTunes.
Also, do a hard reboot of your phone. I know that always helps me.
This doesn't delete anything
Google how to do it if you are not sure how to do it. -

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
I'll presume that you can adjust the brightness after bootup. If that display preference is kept in PRAM, it's possible that the PRAM battery is wearing out.
Here's what Apple says about what's stored in PRAM:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1242
To test that possibility, turn off "Set date and time automatically" in the Date & Time panel of System Preferences (if it's set), shut down and unplug your Mac, then let it sit for a few minutes. When you reboot it, check the system date and time. If the PRAM battery is failing, those may be set incorrectly.
iFixit describes replacing the PRAM battery of an iMac G5 as of "moderate" difficulty. See these pages:

Early today Alt, Ctr and Click and drag changed the brush size. Now it makes the move tool work. Anyone have this problem. I think Adobe had an update and put a bug in the program.
Which version of photoshop and operating system are you using?
windows:
Alt + right click + drag left or right
mac:
Control + Option + left click + drag left or right -
Since the recent upgrade from Adobe pdf plug-inn Firefox often won't open pdf-files. Uninstalling doesn't help. I don't have this problem with Internet Explorer.
Hi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help. -
Updated Facebook via the apps store. Now, icon is "grayed" & will not open, nor will it let me delete it, so I can re-download. Has anyone had this problem?
Do you have another disk or Mac connected that has Pages '09 from the Mac App Store installed? If so, the MAS will "see" it & will report it as installed. Unmount any & all drives, including Time Machine backups, that might have Pages '09 on them & then relaunch the MAS & see if you can download it.

Hi, I have iphone 4s and since yesterday my personal hotspot will not work. It's always worked fine in the past and I have a plan with three uk which includes tethering. I've tried everything I can think of including resetting network settings, resetting the phone as a new phone but nothing works. When connected to the pc it shows on the iphone screen '1 connection' but the pc says 'no internet connection' I've spoken to three who say it must be a phone fault. Any help appreciated. :-)
If you have restored as new that pretty well covers software issues
Looks like a trip to an Apple Store and a likely Out of Warranty exchange unit £159 over the counter
May e consider an upgrade with the money ? -
My iMac will not stay asleep. A few seconds to a few minutes after I put it to sleep, it comes back on.
OK, a few more things coming to mind:
Set the energy saver to sleep in 1 min
Diconnect every single peripheral you have connected to your iMac
Eject any DVD/CD you may have in the drive
Turn off all applications you have running
iTunes or DVD Player could be waking it constantly up if accessing your drives
Messaging apps could be looking for internet connection
Disable Wi-Fi
Disable Bluetooth - you don't have cells paired to it, do you?
Disconect Ethernet cable (if connected)
Spotlight - is it indexing your drive? (a dot within a magnifying glass would be pulsating and won't let your Mac go to sleep)
Connect a wired mouse - if you have it - and go to Apple menu then click SLEEP
If it remains asleep, keep adding all apps, devices and services back until you find which one is causing it.
If nothing helps, then I'm out of ideas....
In case you have Apple TV - the remote can indeed make it wake up. -
So for the past few weeks I've been trying to update the 10.9.2 update on my imac (2010 - 21.5 inch) and when I attempt to try to update the software my screen goes grey with a Software Updater top bar the shows up on the top of the grey screen and then just quits doing anything (except the screen saver which works after nothing else happens - and that shows you how long I've been waiting for the grey screen to magically do something. I've attempted downloading the software update then installing it but the same thing happens. I don't think any of my 3rd party software is the cause of this and i'd rather not uninstall the programs since the update won't even do anything. Utility is telling me nothing but the usual ARD element unable to be modified.
With the several failed attempts at installing this update (probably around 15x) my computer will not shutdown nor restart on command anymore. The only way I can shut it down is holding the power button.
I used to have so much faith in Apple products and used to be a devoted user, but since Jobs passed away the direction of Apple has gone down the toilet.Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply. Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself. I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues.
This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative. This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved. I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question.
BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.} No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you.
So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine. -
NNeed help....my itune store will not download on mi iphone 4 since the latest download

Checked my password, that is correct. Did a chat last night with a guy from Apple, and nothing he told me worked. Have an appt with at store with genius, maybe the can come up with something.

Update 10.8.1 and my magic mouse will not stay connected
I have just updated both my MacBook Pro 17" and my iMac to Mountain Lion 10.8.1.
Almost immediately, my Apple wireless 'Magic Mouse' disconnects after a minute or two of use from either/both computers and will re-connect with a few clicks when this happens.
Prior to updating I never had this problem with either computer or either mouse.
Both of my 'Magic Trackpads' work properly with no disconnects.
I have turned off each Magic Mouse, tried one then the other however there appears to be no solution to this problem.
I have concluded this must be a result of the update to 10.8.1.
Any ideas or potential solutions will be welcomed.I've also been experiencing similiar issues since updating to 10.8.1 on my newer model 13" MacBook Pro. The wireless mighty mouse I have will initially work with my computer, but then after a seemingly arbitrary (short) amount of time, I lose bluetooth connectivity although my MacBook Pro still shows me as being "connected" to this device. At times the issue will resolve itself, but more often than not it requires a complete restart to remedy.
On a possibly related note, has anyone else noticed that the bluetooth icon in the toolbar, when clicked on, results in the infamous Apple pinwheel alot since the update as well? I wonder if this is somehow a related issue?
I went into an Apple store about the mighty mouse connectivity issue and couldn't get a solution. The diagnositics all checked out. Store representative told me that they could take it over night to do a more thorough checkup, but I wasn't ready to part with my laptop over this issue...just yet.
Anyone with answers, please help. -
I have an iPad minI, since the update to iOS 8 it's been very sluggish. When you double click the home button, its not smooth and seem less like iOS 7. is anyone else having this issue??
All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then? -

Choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu.
Choose Software Update from the View menu.
Click Update Now.
Select the items you want to install, then click Install.
Enter an Admin user name and password.
After the update is complete, restart the computer if necessary. -
Two questions:
How do I back up my library onto a DVD? I currently have iTunes 11 and am using Windows Vista
How do I get jewel case insert to print correctly? It keeps printing the song list on top of one another.
Thanks,
SandyI have the exact problem and reported it to Apple 12-6-12. They were able to duplicate the problem on a Windows computer there. It apparently works fine on Macs, but not Windows. They are looking into it and hopefully will issue a software fix soon.
