What iCloud does with my files??

On settings it says if I want to storage my files of anothers apps, Garageband for example. But, Where are they???? This really **cks.

Thanks for your quickly response!
This is what I follow:
Settings/iCloud/Storage & Backup/Manage Storage/MyIphone/
and it says: "Choose the data you want to backup", Garageband, iBooks, iMovie and a couple more are there. Why and what happend with those files? It is just a backup but with no acces? I think that is.
Thanks.

Choosing what Firefox does with a file

Whenever I want to download a file, a box opens with the choices of opening or saving the file. The option for 'Do this automatically for files like this from now on' is greyed and I can't choose that. How can I make that option available? Apparently it was changed at one time but I don't want that choice any longer.
Thanks.

Press the Command key, click on it, and drag it out of the toolbar, or control-click it and choose to remove it.

I need to change what LR does with my files when importing.

I have no idea when the import "Preferences" changed.
When I import DNGs, it COPIES them to another HDD and I cannot find out how to stop this.
When I go to Preferences I do not see any way to change this.
I am about ready to uninstall and reinstall ...

Uninstall/reinstall is not the way to fix this.
You didn't tell us the desired behavior, and if we don't know that, we can't help you get there.

When logging on to Hotmail, a window opens asking me "What to do with this file" for "default.aspx"

This morning, I am unable to log in to Hotmail. The homepage appears normally, but after I enter my email address and password and click to submit them, a window pops us asking me what to do with the file "default.aspx." I have a Vista machine, and last night my computer automatically installed a ton of Microsoft updates. In fact, the update list shows that one of the updates failed to install. At the end of this message, I have pasted the details of the failed update. I have checked the Hotmail support forum, and someone else posted that the have experienced the same problem this morning. The Microsoft "expert" asked him or her to contact Mozilla for support for this issue. Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide, although I highly suspect that this is a problem on the Microsoft/Hotmail end, not yours.
Here is the info on the failed software update from last night...

Hotmail is rolling out a server change at their end which might be causing this problem. Mozilla has spoken to them about it and they are trying to fix it. I won't be able to provide you a time estimate by when it will be solved but hotmail/mozilla is certainly looking at this issue.
I will let you know if get any updates!

Tiger does not know what to do with some files

I have lots of old files that do not have extensions so Tiger does not know what to do with them, Get info displays the files as Unix Executable Files. Is there anything I can do to figure out what the files really are?

Open the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, type in the following:
file
followed by a space, and then drag the items into it. The Terminal will then make an attempt to determine what format each file's content is.

What to do with .m2v file?

I want to burn this .m2v file that compressor output but when I go to put it into DVD Studio pro it says that "one of the volumes is still in use." This whole process is really really frustrating I just want to make a DVD. Please work!

A .dmg file is an image file. If you open it a new "drive" will appear on your desktop with the files the image file contains. Applications commonly come this way and you drag the application to your applications folder, or maybe you run an installer from the image drive. I am guessing that what is happening to you is the dmg file is appearing and then automatically (probably some setting on your browser) opening so you are also seeing the drive. The drive doesn't actually contain anything so you can drag it to the trash when you are done with it. It's the dmg file that contains the original files and once you have dragged those from the drive to your folder you will have made a copy by doing so and you can get rid of the dmg file too.

What to do with CER file?

Hello all.
This is my first time working with security in Java and I am completely lost.
Here is my situation:
1) I have a P12 file given to me by a vendor
2) I imported the P12 file into InternetExplorer
3) I exported the certificate from IE to a DER "cer" file
4) I use KeyTool to import it.
No matter what I do I do not seem to be able to get this to work....
Where I am confused especially, is what to do with the CER file that I got from the vendor. I thought once I exported it I could import it in using the keytool but that doesn't see to work.
I'm basically lost and need some direction. Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
BTW: Please excuse the code i keep trying different things.

ICloud does not transfer files, contacts, Pages, etc to my iPad and Mac Computer from my iPhone How can I correct this problem

icloud suddenly stopped transferring files approximately 48 hours ago and that includes, contacts, Pages, etc to my iPad and Mac Computer from my iPhone How can I correct this problem? prior to that I had no problems with icloud transfers. what suggestions are there to remedy this problem?.

On your iPad and iPhone tap Settigs > iCloud
Switch Documents & Data off then back on. Do the same for Contacts.
On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data, same for Contacts then reselect both boxes then restart your Mac.

How to save applications and what to do with .dmg file

To be honest I think that it is much easier to download apps on windows, but maybe i'm just not doing something right here. It seems that every time I download an app I get a number of files that I don't know what to do with. I get the .dmg file that I save to my desktop and then there is the app icon, and then there is that little white rectangular box that shows up on the desktop when I am using it. It's like it's treating the app as hardware or something that can be ejected. Before I now it my desktop is cluttered with a bunch of these white boxes, app icons, and .dmg files. Anyone have any instructions as to how to manage my apps? Can I delete the .dmg file once i've installed the app? If not, where should I save it? What do I drag to Applications in the finder? the app icon, the white rectangular box, the .dmg file? Anyone know what i'm talking about? I just want to be able to go to my applications file, find the app icon and open it without having to worry about anything else showing up on my desktop. Thanks.

OK, the .dmg is a disc image. When this is mounted you get 'that little white rectangular box'.
When you open the mounted disc (that little white rectangular box) you will find all the files and .app application that you wanted. Copy these to your applications folder or anywhere else you want to put them then simply move 'that little white rectangular box' and .dmg to the trash. Job done.
Hope this makes sense

Firefox repeatedly asks me what to do with PDF files, even after I tell it to use Adobe Reader to open them.

For some reason, Firefox repeatedly asks me what to do with certain PDF files (but not all) even after I have indicated that I want it to use Adobe Reader X to open them and checked the "always use this application" box. I have gone through all of the troubleshooting steps on the Firefox support website to no avail. However, unlike what is shown in the troubleshooting section, when I go into Tools/Applications/Preferences, I do not see a listing for "Adobe Acrobat Document." Instead, there is a listing for "pdf file," which opens with "Adobe Reader"--no "(default)" or "(in Firefox)" appended.

Dowloading applications - what to do with the files?

Hi,
I have downloaded MSN messenger for my new Macbook Pro. I have made a folder called Downloads under my user in which I save the dmg file. When I open this and installation starts I get another messenger file on my desktop.
If I then try and close messenger after installation and delete this file, messenger won't work. I want a clean desktop. When I downloaded firefox, I simply threw away the same kind of file and firefox still works great.
What do I do with this file/icon, after I have installed a program and dragged it to the dock?
Thanks a bunch.

What you did is just create a shortcut to the image that was on your desktop.
-- Do not drag the expanded image icon itself
(nor of course the compressed .dmg or .zip):
It's an application that you have to put in the Applications folder.
Where is the application,
step by step:
- download your compressed .dmg
- double-click it: it expands as a white icon containing an application and some ReadMe files or link to the author's website
- read the ReadMe file, so you can learn how to install/uninstall your application
- this expanded file acts like a CD or an external drive: its icon looks like a drive icon
- (usually,) drag the application from within this "CD-ish", "drivish" folder, to your Applications folder on your Mac.
- now you can eject the expanded white icon, just like when you eject a CD or an external drive.
The application is now copied in the Applications folder.
--> Now that the application is in your Applications folder, you can create its Dock shortcut, you can create an alias of it if you wish, etc.

What is itunes doing with my files?

I am importing severalfiles from an agudiobook, the file plays but does not aapear in the browser, I have not modified th tags, but can't locate the original file, this used to be a piece of cake, now it's plain annoyong
thanks

Sorry for the brief response. They are imported from the original audio CDs into iTunes as mp3s. I then copy them onto the flash drive. Just to check, I transferred mp3s to the flash drive from my PC, and those seem to work. Using the PC, I did briefly "look" at the nonfunctional mp3s that were transferred onto the flash drive via Macbook/iTunes. All of the nonfunctional mp3s had a "._-" prefix before the track number and name. For example "._-01 China Grove.mp3." Again, I appreciate the help. I'd love to be able to use my Macbook to transfer songs to the flash drive.

The firefox does not ask what to do with the torrent files, it opens directly into bittorrent. How do I switch it back to when it asks what to do with the file?

I need Help

You can check the setting for that MIME type in "Tools > Options > Applications" and change the setting to "Always ask".
You may have to reset all download actions by removing the mimeTypes.rdf file manually.

Irony: Bridge doesn't know what to do with .pictclipping file (Mac)

Bridge 5.0.2.4 running under Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 does not know to which application to hand a ".pictclipping" file.
This type of file normally opens in the Finder, without launching any other application or utility of any kind.
However, Bridge doesn't even show a preview in The Content panel or in the Preview panel either. Double clicking on such a file within Bridge's Content panel results in Bridge launching and/or bringing to the front the TextEdit application showing a totally empty window showing the actual name of the file in its title bar but a completely blank window.
Needless to say, it's not possible to establish a file association between this kind of file and the Finder from within Bridge.
Just another example of the lack of attention and resources Adobe has shown toward its stepchild application, Bridge.
Adobe Photoshop 13.0.5 does not open such files through its Open menu item dialog either, even though it correctly detects them as a .PICT files.

The only way to see an image contained within a PictClipping in OSX 10.8.4 is in Apple's own Finder App. and it appears that you can't do anything with it once you have "found" it?! …
That's exactly as it is meant to be, Ann. An image that is lightning fast to create, lightning fast to view and utterly impossible to alter, manipulate or edit!
You can, however, copy its contents to your Clipboard after Command+A.
CameraAnn wrote:
Clicking on it, only opens it in an empty RTF window.
Double clicking on it in all Mac OS versions I know, from Mac OS 9.x and earlier up to and including Lion 10.7.5, immediately shows the image in the Finder itself in a stretchable, floating, Finder window.
Have no knowledge of Mountain Lion (which won't run on my Mac Pro1,1 Quad) but what you describe above is exactly what happens when you double click the image in Bridge's Content panel, and that's just plain wrong behavior. The blank window is not a Finder window in that case, but a TextEdit window.
CameraAnn wrote:
Images from other than MS Office progams can be drag-copied to the Desktop as JPEGs and MS Office images can always be Copied/Saved As to the location and format of your choice.
So I am not sure why anyone would need to make an Image PictClipping anyway?
Oh, I make pictClippings and textClippings all the time, every single day!
For example, I have a large collection of both pictClippings and textClippings containg killer tips by Photoshop luminaries like Bruce Fraser, Ann Shelbourne and Andrew Rodney, that I've created over the years—in a nanosecond each time—by simply highlighting portions of their Adobe forum posts and dragging the selection to the Desktop: instant, permanent reminders!
No application needed to open them or to copy their contents.
Another helpful use is to select text from emails giving me the registration or serial number of applications or plug-ins I buy online then save the clipping in a Reg_SerialNumbers folder for later.
CameraAnn wrote:
However, Bridge will show only the file icon for any image-containing Clipping…
Sure, but that's just the unacceptable, unnecessary tease I'm complaining about.
CameraAnn wrote:
…Double-Clicking on one will immediately open a small Finder .app window floating over the Bridge CC window…
You're wrong there, Ann; it's not a Finder window but a TextEdit window. Just look at your menu bar next time you invoke such a tease from within Bridge: the focus will have shifted to the TextEdit application. That's why the window will show text but not images.
Clippings are one of the GREAT features of the Mac OS that are missing in Windows, and one very important factor that attracted me to the Mac almost thirty years ago.
I am very, very surprised that you haven't discovered its usefulness after all these years, as you are one of the savviest Mac user experts I've ever run across.
