Suddenly my mac uses only all caps and I can't restart, please help!
Suddenly my mac started using only 'all caps', and also 'select all' with 'left click' in both iTunes and Chrome. I tried to restart, but it will only attempt to open in safe mode, and it will not accept my password. I assume this is because it will only type in capitals, so I cannot get in at all, even with my OS disk.
This is not because of the caps lock button. I tried this many times. My cat may have walked on my keyboard though. When this happened, I was copying unlinked descriptions from Chrome to iTunes podcasts. I have shut down to restart several times, and my new wired aluminum keyboard is 4 weeks old.
About 3 weeks ago I did a complete erase of my hard drive and installed snow leopard and iWork 9 from disk, updated them, and only added my documents back on from a bootable backup. Then I downloaded Lightroom 4, and imported a few thousand photos from an EHD. My iTunes library is on a seperate EHD. Everything has worked perfectly until now. I do have a recent Time Machine backup. My APS uninterruptable power supply is about 2 weeks old.
What can I do now?

Problem solved, it was my new mac keyboard, only four weeks old.
My old mac keyboard works fine except for the row of keys on the far right,
which is why I got a new one.
Hard to believe a bad keyboard could mess up a mac that badly!

I am experiencing on going problems with my i phone 4 due to me sharing an i tunes account with my daughter. I have been told by apple to cancel my existing (shared) i tunes account and open a new one for my use only. How do I do this? I cant find any links in i tunes to do this. mountfield
No, it's done on the computer, it's just done on the web and not through iTunes. I guess you could do it on the iPhone, but it would be easier to do on the computer.
Just go to the site linked above, then click on the big blue button and fill out the neccessary information. -

Also, what means "won't open"; are the local or online documents? If online, in what browser? -
Upgrading to 11.1.1 has wiped my ipad1 of all music and videos when synching. Please help
I am running Windows XP, have an ipad1 running IOS 5.1.1 and an ipod 5th gen 80gb video.
I have 6,000 songs in iTunes, podcasts, books, apps and numerous movies and videos both purchased from Apple Store and some home converted mp4s.
I upgraded to 11.1.1 5 days ago and since then, every time I have tried to sync my ipad as I add more videos, it has gone mad and on step 4 out of 5 of the synch process it hangs and then gives me a unknown error code -69 and not only does it not add any new video files, it removes existing ones that have always been there and I just get the grey dotted circle next to them now when I look at the ipad films directory. Podcasts are fine.
I have fully restored the ipad, I have experimented with manually managing music and videos, I have tried to add the old 'always worked before' videos back, one by one but absolutely nothing works and since I did the restore, it now won't add ANY of my music files...I just get the error -69.
I connected my old faithful ipod instead to see what happened and exactly the same story.
Can I roll back a version of iTunes? What can I do? It's been maddening and I have spent 2 days trying to fix it.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions I can try. I see that many people here have had similar problems and turning wifi on the device off seemed to have helped - but I don't even have wifi on my ipod and it screwed that up.Hi there,
That's a point for a huge discussion... "EPMA may already be on its way out the door"
I thought that it is the other way round? That Oracle aims to stop using classic application and move everything to EPMA...

How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work (on prior iPhones) before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)
I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past? Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this. I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

I have different iCloud IDs for my iPhone &Mac and I have 5GB on each, if I decide to use only 1 ID for both, can I have 10GB or will I be limited to 5 since it's 1 iCloud ID. I am afraid that if I I use only 1 iCloud ID for both of them I will be limited to only 5GB which is small a nd I don't have money to be paying annually for extra GB. Thanks and waiting for your replies.
The free 5GB allowance is per account, not per device.
If you back up to iTunes, 5 GB should be more than enough for the average user. -
I just downloaded 950 photos on iPhoto and deleted them off my camera and now under last import there is only 4 photos and i can't find the others?? There is a whole bunch of blank events in the library with no photos in them all with todays date? Help!!
Yes - you need a min of 10 GB just to operate - with just 1 you certainly can lose photos and other critical things - you need to make space immediately - probably by moving your iPhoto library to a volume formatted Mac OS extended -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

What is the condition for using 'for all entries' and why?
what is the condition for using 'for all entries' and why? can any body tell the reason for this ? its a big favour of me .
regards,
ravi.hi,
for all entries is used to join two or more tables.
It is same as join but performance wise for all entries is more effective.
You can only use FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ...WHERE ...in a SELECT statement.
SELECT ... FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab WHERE cond returns the union of the solution sets of all SELECT
statements that would result if you wrote a separate statement for each line of the internal table replacing the symbol
itab-f with the corresponding value of component f in the WHERE condition.Duplicates are discarded from the result
set. If the internal table itab does not contain any entries, the system treats the statement as though there were
no WHERE cond condition, and selects all records (in the current client).
for example:
SELECT * FROM sflight INTO wa_sflight
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ftab
WHERE CARRID = ftab-carrid AND
CONNID = ftab-connid AND
fldate = '20010228'.
this condition, return all entries of the sflight
hen using FOR ALL ENTRIES the number of matching records is restricted to the number of records in the internal table. If the number of records in the database tables is too large then join would cause overheads in performance. Additionally a JOIN bypasses the table buffering.
So for all entries is used for filtering out the data from the two tables based on the entries in them.
Advantages:
1) For all entries avoids inner join & so the performance increases.
2) For specified values in 1 itab, if you to fetch values from other table you can use it.
3) Use of select stmt in loop is gets avoided, as u can use read statement on the the new itab. -

I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends. She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it. Really need some help. Shouldnt her apps and details be saved online in the itunes store? Even her apps wont appear
If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.
