What difference does it make when you press Shift + Restore comparing to just press Restore alone ?

So i'm about to do my first restore and i wonder what is the difference? Do i have to when i open Itunes ,go to summary and press Restore before that to hold Shift ?

Shift+restore is to restore form an ispw file on your computer.
Control+restore to restore from backup.
Above for iTunes 10.7 or earllier or so I have read.

  • What difference does it make if you have boot camp beta and it has expired

    I have an imac w/OS 10.4.11--when i purchased it several years ago i had it partitioned and had windows xp installed. when i purchased this several years ago, they were using boot camp beta to do this.
    recently i found out that the boot camp beta expired. the problem is i don't see how it has affected my windows or my mac. i don't see any difference.
    the only problem i have is that i can't access the internet from the windows xp--*is this something that upgrading my OS and using the full bootcamp would correct?*
    if not, then why should i upgrade the OS to Leopard using the final version of boot camp--what will i be able to do that i can't do now _from the WINDOWS XP perspective?_ ( i assume there are advantages from the Mac perspective, but nothing i can see that i need there--i look at the internet, play games (not action games), and write documents).

    hi iatrosm,
    Yes, i had internet access from both windows xp and from mac for about a year and a half, and then one day the windows access 'disappeared'
    i had a microsoft certified technician (son of a friend who also works in the field) come and look at it.
    we could only find that for whatever reason the modem was not receiving the signal any longer from windows. the windows showed that the modem was receiving it.
    That's indeed very odd.
    naturally apple said it was a windows problem and microsoft said it was an apple problem.
    my personal feeling is that it is a hardware problem--but the issue is receiving from windows.
    the modem works fine from my mac side.
    Is this a dial-up modem or part of DSL ?
    And how is it connected (ethernet...) ?
    Has it some sort of self-test feature or the possibility for a full reset ?
    While hardware can break, it usually breaks completely, not OS-dependent.
    Is the modem shown in the Device Manager of Windows (Control Panel - System - Hardware) ?
    Any system updates you have installed in Windows prior to the failure of the modem ?
    Any Firewall settings changed ?

  • Why do I have to convert t2i files to pro res in fcp x? What difference does it make ?

    Hey Guys,
    Just wondering why do I have to convert canon t2i files to prores in fcp x? What difference does it make ? I'm able to edit in fcpx the files that have just been imported diectly in. Does it cause any problems in export?
    Thanks so much,
    Jamie

    I am not familiar with Canon files.
    I assume that they are like AVCHD which are really designed only as a delivery format and not for editing.
    Though they can be edited it is concidered better to convert them to ProRes 422 for editing.
    Though nothing terrible will probably happen if you don't convert them, you are likely to get improved results and faster rendering of complex effects with the converted media.
    The best thing is to do 2 very short (sub - 5 minute) identical test projects adding lots of effects etc. with both methods and then you will be able to determine which technique suits you.

  • What is done by Flash when you press "Show all" option???

    Hello,
    I need technical information. I'd like to know which kind of resizing is done by Flash when you press the "Show all" option. What differences between "Show all" and 100% are there???
    I'm programming an application and the Flash Player Proyector always has the "Show all" option enabled modifying the size of my content!!!!!
    Thanks in advance.

  • Just what difference does it make?

    Hi all,
    Easy question probably but it stumps me. What is the difference between the volume softkeys (F4/F5) and the iTunes volume slider? Do the two control different aspects of sound or something else.

    F4 & F5 adjust the system volume level and affects all programs and system sounds while the iTunes slider adjusts the volume only for iTunes.

  • What does it mean when you can't restore your iPhone4?  After I run "restore" I receive a message telling me my phone is in recovery mode and I must run "restore"  HELP!

    I can't restore my iPhone 4.  It went nuts today.  Went to "voice control", called people on my contact list, home button is dead.  Thought a sync would help. New software available.  Did download.  Can't load anything.  Phone in "recovery mode"  do restore.  OOPS!  I did restore, and then am told the phone is in recovery mode, do it all again.  OK I have.  Same message.  HELP!

    Thanks Larry.  I ended up at the genius bar at the local Apple store.  My home button had died which is why the phone was constantly going to Voice Control.  The phone was replaced.  Thanks for answering.  I checked out the link and ordinarily that would have done the trick.

    You need to connect to iTunes and restore.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    You may need to put the device into recovery mode, this is covered in the link on this page.
    Did you back up the device?

  • What does it mean when you receive a text on your iphone 6 form your own number and the message is duplicated on each side (sent/recieved) and has "verizon message" with a long number at the end of the text, duplicated as well?

    what does it mean when you receive a text on your iphone 6 from your own number and the message is duplicated on each side (sent/received) and has "verizon message" with a long number at the end of the text, duplicated as well?

        Great question stacybrownie! Let's get to the bottom of this so that it's not a cause for concern. When a message is sent to/from your own number, it will display as one sent, one received. This makes it display two messages as you are seeing. Let's clarify the second part of your question. Where do you see "Verizon Message" exactly? What is the long number at the end of the text? When did this start and is it with all text messages or only this instance?

  • What does it mean when you computer crashes and when you turn it back on it shows you a blank blue screen with a little folder and a question mark in the middle?

    What does it mean when you computer crashes and when you turn it back on it shows you a blank blue screen with a little folder and a question mark in the middle? It's a old imac from 1997.

    I don't have original discs that it came with.
    Then you still can use the second option with the keyboard combo I posted, called "resetting the PRAM."
    Also when you way hold the c key down do you mean turn computer off and turn back on holding the c key?
    Yes, or you can simply restart. As you don't have the CDs, this isn't on the plate any more.
    The internal backup battery is not expensive and, in most iMacs is user-replacable. If yours has a tray-loading optical drive like this one:
    it takes a major teardown to replace the internal battery. If this is the case, you'd be better off to leave the computer plugged in all the time; that eliminates the main reason for having a working battery.
    If it has a slot-loading optical drive like this one:
    things are much easier. The battery is visible through the RAM access door on the bottom of the computer case. The manual:
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iMacG3_2000UserManual.PDF
    has sketches of how to access the RAM and therefore the backup battery. Unfortunately, the pdf on the manual goes up sideways on-screen and the RAM instructions are pretty deep into the manual. It's probably easier to scroll (for a while) to the section on adding RAM and print the applicable pages.
    When you work on the battery, some sort of non-conductive pliers or large tweezer or forceps help unless you have tiny fingers. Make sure to note the polarity of the old battery and install the new one in the same orientation.
    The battery itself is readily available. If price is no oblect, you can get it for a small rasom from Radio Shack Store ("Tandy" outside the US) as part number 23-026.
    Online, they are dirt-cheap even after adding shipping. I buy backup batteries form this outfit:

  • What does it mean when you get a "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. There is not enought memory available." ? And what can I do to correct it?

    What does it mean when you get a "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. There is not enought memory available." ? And what can I do to correct it?

    Well, I installed the latest iTunes this AM, works perfectly.  Although for some reason it did lock up after playing a song today.
    Horror stories?  That's a bit overly dramatic.
    No, it isn't.
    The issue you are experiencing is one that has occurred in multiple versions of iTunes, a simple search would have revealed this.
    A simple search was conducted, no one seemed to have an answer.  Do you always adopt such a haughty attitude?  Or was I just lucky.

    That means that if you use online maps, it will consume data. If you're on WiFi, no worries. If you are on cellular data, then it will eat into your cellular data plan.

  • What does it mean when you call someone and it goes straight to the 3 beeps to mean cancelled

    hi

    what does all this mean?
    thanks
    mrredrunner100

    i got my friend to message this person to see if they had the same problem, and the message went through and i think he got a reply, and all of a sudden this has started to work again (calls only) but apparently none of my messages went through that i have sent since the block activated. and they still havent even though there working again, and "apparently" a message was sent to me at 9pm today and it has never arrived. so imessage and text still isnt working, before i go asking this person about this, is this a genuine block or is there a phone problem?

  • What does it means when you turn on the macbook and a file with a "?" mark flashes?

    What does it means when you turn on the macbook and a file with a "?" mark flashes?

    It usually means some system files are missing or corrupted. Reinstalling OS X is the fix:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

When you press the round button with the square in the centre the voice on the phone tells you the time. Then the voice says screen lock. If I try and unlock the phone the voice says phone unlock but you can't put the code in. If you hight the box it will say the number but not put the code in?! What's the crack?

    Quickly Triple tap the home button to de-activate VoiceOver.

    what does it mean when you're about to install itunes and it says This update requires OS X version 10.6.8 or later.??? i don't understand... Can someone please explain to me what that means...??? And how to fix it.

    1. It means exactly what it says. Apple dropped support for earlier Mac OS X versions in iTunes 10.7.
    2. Update the computer to 10.6.8. If it's running a Mac OS X version prior to 10.6, this requires buying a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store, which requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM.
