    Simply turn off the iPhone for about 60 seconds, and see if they reappear. If not, I would call  Apple Care at 800-676-2775.

    I seem to have deleted Passbook off my iPhone. How can I get it back? I can't see it listed in the appstore anywhere.

    It is not possible to delete any of the bundled apps. You may have moved it to another home screen or inadvertently dropped it into a folder. If you search for the app or reset the home screen layout - Settings/General/Reset - that should bring it back to the default location. There also may be a setting to turn Passbook off in the General/Restrictions, but not having an iPhone with iOS 6 I'm not sure.

  • Just want to ask about the full screen icon that used to be on the play bar but seems to have disappeared since upgrade to mountain lion, any way to get it back?

    Since upgrading to mountain lion I've noticed the full screen icon which used to be on the playback bar in quicktime has gone, I know you can go to the menus to make it full screen but if you're watching something online like with apple trailers I can't seem to make them fullscreen anymore, is it me or have they just taken this option away now?

    I've been playing the trailers in my browser and the full screen option has gone for me,
    As already stated, the icon was replaced by the "Share" pop-up menu icon in the same location.
    and the command-f keys don't work either when I'm playing in a browser and it's truly only been since I upgraded to mountain lion.
    Strange! It works for me. Here is a link to a screen recording of me wayching a trailer in Safari and later watching a trailer download. In both cases the trailer could be expsnded for full screen viewing and then reduced back to the size of the original 720p player display screen. If you can't do this then you may have a player problem also.

    Why did apple make these changes when they worked perfectly the old way, I mean if it ain't broke don't fix it!
    Only Apple whould know for sure but my guess would be that other users may have requested the "Share" pop-up more. Makes no difference to me because I normally use the key shortcuts anyway.

  • Creative Cloud seems to have deleted my templates

    My Creative Cloud subscription missed a payment two days ago due to a change of card details.  This morning I updated it with my new card details and paid the subscription.
    In this time though it has reset my After Effects to the trial version and seems to have deleted all my Output Module templates.  Some of these were made through trial and error and needed to be identical for a specific project - they will be very hard to replicate!  There may have been other things reset that I haven't noticed yet.
    Has anyone else had this?  Is it standard policy?  Is there anyway to avoid this in future so as not to lose work due to a completely innocent mistake? 
    It seems a major problem with the subscription model if a delayed payment can cost work

    Thanks guys - I was in a rush Tuesday morning to finish some work so I thought I'd get that done and update my card details in the afternoon.  But it was the disabling of reading mpegs that made me realise I'd have to get the subscription sorted first.  Just to be clear the output modules that disappeared were Quicktime as well as mpeg so I don't think that was the issue
    I'd done a load of renders on Sunday with the output modules working fine but as soon as I'd updated the subscription on Tuesday and the license had come through they were all gone.  Some of my layouts have changed too, although not all of them strangley.  I haven't noticed any other changes... (no luck with it sorting out the terrible ram caching problems of CS6!)
    I haven't reset the preferences and haven't touched the .aom files - I've been using After Effects consistently for the last 9 years so I'm pretty sure it's not a 'user error'

    Not sure if that same Application is designed for Mac Os x, Search for Applications on App Store instead of iTunes on your Macbook Pro, as Applications available on iTunes Store on a Macbook is designed to work only on iOS Device like iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch and whatever is available on App Store on Mac is designed for Mac Os x.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • I just bought quicktime pro and can't get it to show up in my system preferences.

    i just bought quicktime pro and can't get it to show up in my system preferences. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    QuickTime only appears on System Preferences if you are running Mac OS X Leopard, and you have OS X Mountain Lion.
    In Mac OS X Snow Leopard and newer, QuickTime Player 7 isn't included, so you have to install it before getting QuickTime 7 Pro > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678
    After installing QuickTime Player 7, you have to activate it in order to get QuickTime 7 Pro. In that link, follow the steps under "Information for QuickTime 7 Pro users"

  • Just bought Macbook Pro and no Leopard installed

    Just recieved my 2.2ghz Macbook Pro from Amazon.com. It has the old OS on it. I bought Leopard, full retail, to upgrade my Mac Mini a few weeks ago.
    I know I can pay $9.99 to have Leopard shipped from Apple because the macbook I just bought qualifies, but if I already have the OS disc can I just upgrade now?
    I guess the question boils down to is the $9.99 for shipping and the cost of the disc, or is there a licensing fee involved. If it is just for overhead cost of manufacture and shipping then there should be no issue.
    The OS disc I purchased is MAC OS X V10.5 RETAIL per the label.
    I searched the forums and could not find anything similiar, but I am new to macs.

    If you have the full retail version of Leopard then you are good to go. Keep in mind though that you will not receive the iLife programs within the Leopard install. You will have to install those off of the disc that came with the MBP. The full retail version of Leopard works great with the MBP. I am not sure how much memory you have right now, however, you may want to upgrade to a full 4 gigabytes of memory. Go to Otherworldcomputing.com. They have great deals on the RAM, and it is like turbocharging your MBP if you upgrade the RAM to full capacity under Leopard. If they ever fix that translucent menu bar at the top of Leopard, I will be one happy camper. Good luck, and enjoy your new MBP.

    You an use your iPhone without connecting it to a computer.
    But the product description for the iPhone clearly states that in order to sync with a Mac you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later. That version of the OSX is usually called Snow Leopard. There are two mo recent versions of OSX. OSX 10.7.x (Lion) and OSX 10.8.x (Mountain Lion).
    If you can upgrade your computer to at least Snow Leopard I suggest you do so.
