Since updating my Mac to 10.8.4 any external hard disk doesn't show on Finder sidebar (but shows on desktop). Anyone else have the same problem?
Since updating my Mac to 10.8.4 any external hard disk doesn't show on Finder sidebar (but shows on desktop). Anyone else have the same problem?
It's annoying because now I can't use Finder sidebar for drag and drop to thumb drive etc.
Thanks for your thoughts and help!
Hi Barney-15E,
Thanks for your reply and suggestions!
It is set to show on the sidebar in Finder prefs and I tried toggling the setting multiple times but it didn't fix anything.
I went into Preferences (I'm Administrator) but the strange thing is I don't see com.apple.sidebarlists.plist anywhere in the folder. Not sure what that means..

after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?
I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
TIA -
does anyone else have the same problem??
I did! Just make sure when you're updating, to be connected to power!

HAs anyone else had the same problem, after doing an update nothing will come up for tribez just a blank screen. My late nights are not the same now!!!
Your Performance preferences screen capture reveals you have a single hard drive with little available space to accommodate both the Photoshop scratch file and the swap files of the OS.
It's obvious that Bridge finds itself at times with insufficient space to build its cache.
However, it's unclear why that should affect only DNG files and not other type of image files. Puzzling, unless the DNG files are the only large image files you have.
Parts of the following may illustrate what happens when the scratch file is on your boot drive:
The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch. -
I updated Bridge yesterday. CS6 5.2.0.4. Mac OS 10.9.5
Now all previews (DNG files) in Bridge appear sideways and only small thumbnail size.
Also Camera Raw has been disabled.
I have tried purging cache for the folders as well as purging entire cache.
I have also spent over an hour on the phone to tech support which mainly involved being switched between departments and trying to understand anyone on the phone.
Can anyone help?Your Performance preferences screen capture reveals you have a single hard drive with little available space to accommodate both the Photoshop scratch file and the swap files of the OS.

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers / docking station and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems? Both worked fine until the update...
Okay. I got it working again by setting it up as a new phone instead of just syncing. Then I backed up. All is good today.

Ever since I updated my ipad2 and iphone5 to ios8, both devices are running slow, apps take forever to download (Google is STILL downloading on both), and they freeze/crash. This is VERY frustrating! Anyone else having the same problems?
Message was edited by: RkksheaHad same problem on my iPad2 with the original 8.0 release. I ended up wiping it completely clean and doing a reset and restore from backup. That seemed to fix my issues. I had the same problem when 7 came out and did the same wipe and restore to get everything working well.

Since I downloaded IOS8, my iphone will not sync with itunes on my MacBook, which means I'm also having difficulty doing a simple manual backup of my ios device to my MacBook. The fact that my MacBook has a 32 bit processor and runs on OS X Version 10.6.8 (as good as it gets), is, apparently, the root of the problem since I've never had this problem with previous ios versions. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem and what is Apple doing about it?
I have the same issue, except I am running an i5 iMac (64-bit) with 10.10.1 installed. I can't tell if it is an iOS issue or an iTunes 12 issue. It started happening to me when I got the iPhone 6 AND upgraded to iTunes 12. It wouldn't connect my iPhone nor my iPad 2 (running older iOS). I had to install a fresh version of iTunes and it "sort of" helped. It will see the devices now, but then it forgets and I have to reboot occasionally for them to be seen again.
This is a big problem and seems to be pretty wide spread. -
I updated Itunes today to the latest version. Windows 7 64bit. None of my drivers work and get an error when itunes starts, about registry setting for reading and writing dvds and cds missing. Anyone else have the same issue. I downloaded itunes again, reinstalled still have same issue.
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

I recently updated my software on my iphone 4 to the iOS 5 and ever since i have had no service. I have been on the phone constantly with at&t tech support and apple. Tech support cannot figure it out and said they think my problem has everything to do with the new software. Apple is saying it has nothing to do with the new software that it is probably something to do with my phone itself but i was not having this problem until i updated the new software. Is anyone else having this same issue and if so any ideas on how to fix it?
Yeah, it´s happening in normal 3g coverage area, in fact, i used the 3g to download the iOS but after installing it, the phone doesn't get the 3g anymore.
I tryed the reboot pocess, but it didn't fix it
I haven't tryed the restore to factory settings process,
Is there a way to downgrade to iOS 5.1 again?

this is what the previous helped asked me to do, severely edited. then she told me to restart and i lost her.
You are now chatting with Firefox community member zzxc<br />
zzxc: Hello<br />
zzxc: Is it still in the add-ons tab/<br />
steve: hi. i dont see it. it usually is on the menu bar towards the left, at least before i did this upgrade<br />
steve: actually, i realize i dont know what an add-on tab loos like- previously it just floated between the "latest headlines" etc and the bookmark toolbar<br />
zzxc: look in Firefox->Addons<br />
steve: i'm on an imac osX snow leopard. i see add-ons under firefox>tools>addons, but when i click on that, nothing is opening<br />
zzxc: try going to about:addons in Firefox's address bar<br />
steve: if i understand, firefox>about just tells me that im using 8.0beta. the only place i see the word add-ons is under tools. unless im unclear about where you mean by firefox's address bar, which i'm thinking means the bar with my own bookmarks menu. the bar with the URL- i don't see anything on that like you describe.<br />
zzxc: ok - when you try to go to tools->addons, nothing happens?<br />
steve: it didnt my first 3 tries, and it opened a page which says: about:addons in the URL spot, and "add-ons manager" in the tab<br />
steve: just now opened that page<br />
steve: forgive my typing<br />
zzxc: ok - in there, look in Extensions. is downloadhelper enabled there?<br />
zzxc: (click it - you should see a disable button if it's enabled)<br />
steve: i assume it is enabled because the button there reads: disable"<br />
steve: btw, the i-click youtubedownloader and SpeakingFox say they’re incompatible with 8.0.<br />
zzxc: so it seems to be enabled<br />
zzxc: right click the toolbar and go to customize<br />
zzxc: see if the downloadhelper button is in the customize window<br />
steve: it's not there. the only addon there i recognize is Zotero<br />
zzxc: Do you see the downloadhelper logo on youtube video pages, to the left of the video title?<br />
zzxc: eg. look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpzUCA5i6zY<br />
zzxc: try with just downloadhelper enabled and no other add-ons enabled<br />
zzxc: other add-ons could be interfering with downloadhelper<br />
steve: ok i'll try that now- since the downloadhelper logo wasnt on the youtube page<br />
steve: ok. i disabled all except downloadhelper<br />
steve: but no downloadhelper logo appears anywhere on the toolbars or anywhere above<br />
zzxc: is there an error in Error Console about it?<br />
zzxc: command+shift+J on a mac<br />
steve: when i clicked on the errors tab, the window under it was blank<br />
zzxc: In Firefox, open the Firefox->Help menu and choose Troubleshooting Information. On the page that opens, click Copy all to clipboard. Finally, paste the clipboard into this chat by using CTRL+V. (You can also paste by right clicking and pressing paste)<br />
steve: ok thanks brb<br />
steve: hi zz. i clicked on COPY TO CLIPBD but it didnt do anything i could see. (is the clipboard something i find somewhere else? i am able to cut n paste that entire page if you want.<br />
zzxc: press CTRL+V in this chat<br />
zzxc: that should paste it here.Try:

I upgraded to iOS 7 the other day and everything worked fine. Today I noticed I can no longer open the iTunes app on my phone. I used it yesterday to download a few songs and today it gives me a white screen with menu tabs on the bottom that also do not open. I have tried every suggestion and read all the official apple support items and none of it works. Anyone else have this problem or have it fixed after you had the same problem?
I have exactly the same problem. I too have tried everything that's been suggested, but still not working. Don't really what to do next? I have an iPhone 4S.

Hopefully it's been resolved by now - I have no idea how large each one of those files are. The progress bar tells you; FWIW, I only download one at a time - makes it easier and faster and you can choose to do the next one when you have time.
