The messages on my Iphone and Mac don't match, My Mac is lacking messages. Do they only show if the sender has an iPhone, trying to figure out if thats what the missing names have in common, or if it a different problem?

The messages on my Iphone and Mac don't match, My Mac is lacking messages. Do they only show if the sender has an iPhone, trying to figure out if thats what the missing names have in common, or if it a different problem?

Messages on the mac will only show iMessages sent from an iPhone, another mac, iPad etc etc...
It won't show SMS / Text messages.
If the messages are green on your iphone then they are text messages... Blue are iMessages

  • I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility.  You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply.  You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
    There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler.  If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish.  However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
    As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
    Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
    Ask again.  I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice.  As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities.  At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
    You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.

    Trying to figure out how to change the tuning of certain notes so I can play notes in between pitches for example the middle note between B & C or E & F. I can use different tracks if needed but I would prefer to know how to do it for individual notes as well. They have to be exactly in the middle so it's not out of tune.

    Danny,
    The theme to Doctor Who is in 12/8. In music theory, there's no such thing as a 12th note, the notation and nomenclature is all based on things being divisible by four. So for the diddly-dum feel to happen, you have to give the beat to a quarter note plus another eighth note -- we call it a dotted quarter note, and now you have three eighth notes per beat so you can go diddly. So, since you can't call the time signature 12/dotted quarter, you call it 12/8 and go faster. Make sense? Anyway, for GB's purposes, all you need to know is that you'll get that feel by choosing 12/8.

    Hi ghost ninja: The "other" section on your iPod Touch is most likely your operating system. Probably not a good idea to get rid of it.

  • I have hp 4050TN laser print. it was worki ng fine 4 days ago and suddenly stoped printing and is  saving all printing orfers. i tried to figure out. i am gettinhg the message that  apple-talk is  turned off and has to be turned on. what is apple talk? i

    my mac is unable to connect to my printer hp4050 laser tn. message i get is apple link is not connected to communicate with the printer. i went to  system preferences but could  not turn on the apple link. i am very new to mac. in pc. i could figure out and fix the problem  but in mac i have no clue at all what to do? it has been almost a week trying without success. help?

    Your operating system, Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6), does not support AppleTalk. Instead, in Snow Leopard the HP 4000 series printers need to be set up to communicate via IP.
    Go to System Preferences and open the Print & Fax item. Is your printer listed in that pane?

  • I have an android phone which is now dis-connected; I traded in for an iphone5c, which, by the way, I love.  Now I am trying to figure out how to retrieve the many photos on my silent android and move them onto my Macbook Air.  Help?

    Does anyone have advice about how to move my photos from my android phone to my Macbook Air?  The phone is no longer in service (I traded to an iphone) and I can't locate my cable--which may not have helped, anyway.  I tried inserting my micro memory card into a USB reader, and the computer will not acknowledge any photos from the card.  Thoughts?

    I think you will find the cable to be very necessary.
    For some phones - samsung for example, you may need to down load their manager program (I think samsung's is called Kies or keis)  A bit like how one uses itunes to connect to a iphone. 
    Once you have the cable and are connected, you should see a file system and look for the DCIM directory.

  • Trying to figure out how to implement the scroll wheel for scrubbing through the final swf animation.

    I have an animation I have created and would like to allow the user to scroll up and down (for forwards and backwards) to control which direction the animation plays and at what rate. I'd also like to have the the animation do nothing if the scroll wheel isn't being manipulated. Here's the code I have so far, but I keep getting errors:
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    function handleMouseWheel(event:MouseEvent):void {
      trace("The delta value is: " + event.delta);
      frame = (clip_mc._currentframe + delta);
         clip_mc.gotoAndStop(frame);
    addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL,mouseWheel);
    Appreciate your help!
    I'm pretty new to this and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
    Thanks

    Completely forgot to include my errors. After updating the code:
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    function handleMouseWheel(event:MouseEvent):void {
      trace("The delta value is: " + event.delta);
      frame = (clip_mc.currentFrame + event.delta);
         clip_mc.gotoAndStop(frame);
    addEventListener(MouseEvent.handleMouseWheel,mouseWheel);
    And the errors I'm getting: (with my animation playing from beginning to end)

  • About to purchase a MacPro trying to figure out if i need the Westmere Dual Processors or say the single processor 3.32 ghz w/3gb RAM? This is for the electronic prepress department of a printing company. Mainly we need to have multiple apps. running

    Will be using applications all at once like Quark ,CS5... Indesign,photshop, AI...etc.
    Will be exporting and writing PDF's and Postsript files constantly along with a few networked servers.
    Just a lot of application work!
    Right now the department has 5 Macs 4 of them are the older PowerPC's and one is a 2008 or 2009  MacPro 2.8ghz QuadCore (singleprocesser) which is by far the fastest machine. Now we need another one or maybe two more but would like to be even faster than the MacPro we have but not go over the 3,000 mark for price.

    buy 2,8 4-core and upgrade to W3680 yourself. sell the 2.8 or keep it as backup. Very affordable 6-core, or just spring for the fastest single cpu BTO.
    Invest in 8GB DIMMs (4 x 8GB) and SSD - 3rd party RAM, 3GB is enough to boot, period.
    Wait for SATA3, more bandwidth, Sandy Bridge E Xeons.

  • Trying to figure out how to change the desktop background with powershell/batch.

    The entire thing I'm doing is pretty pointless lol. But I wanted to prank my mother. This is my computer by the way nothing malicious. I just had an idea that the next time she goes to click and open opera I would have a batch files disguised as it instead
    that would just say some things. Mimic deleting files. Kill exlporer.exe. Change the background to one I created saying something like GOT YA! with a troll face or something. And then either run explorer.exe again or shutdown my laptop. I don't really know
    what I am doing lol. I have the batch file done but the changing of the desktop has me puzzled. I can have the batch file to replace the current bmp file with one I've made but it doesn't actually change the background. And JFY WPA files just happened to be
    where I decided to sit the files for this prank at until I'm done with them.
    I used this to copy it over.
    copy /y "C:\Users\user\Documents\WPA Files\Internet Explorer W
    allpaper.bmp" "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Inter
    net Explorer Wallpaper.bmp"
    I used this to try to get the wallpaper to refresh to show the new one before I found out this doesn't work with windows 8.1
    RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters
    I found this but I am not entirely sure what to do with -name or -value or if I need to do anything to them or the others.. Doubt this would even refresh or what ever to make the new wallpaper actually show though.
    set-itemproperty -path "HKCU:Control Panel\Desktop" -name wallpaper -value $image
    Also found this which I don't get at all..

  • I recently set up multiple accounts and when I was trying to figure out how to share files I messed up something in my documents. Everytime I open a doc from the ADMIN account, a box pops up that says "The file is not in the correct format" how to fix?

    I recently set up multiple accounts on my imac, When I was trying to figure out how to share the documents I must have done something wrong. When logged into the Admin account, I open up any document and I get a message box that says, "The Document could not be opened. The file isn't in the correct format. The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format." What did I do and how do I fix it?

    Without knowing what you did it is impossible to give advice on how to correct it.
    If these were files you copied over from some other system then just Re-Copy them replacing the ones that are corrupted.
    Other then that I suggest you Wipe the drive and start over with a clean reinstall of the OS and programs. Then if you want to share files to All Accounts place those files in a folder in the ROOT of the drive.
