Whats page file? and how can i locate it?

Hi I'm trying to arrange a way to make the most of my disk storage. I am trying to find out what page file is so that I can organise it. I have so far arranged my space as follows
C - OS and programs
E - Projects, media cache, preview files, auto saves, current footage being edited.
F - back up, footage(unused), exports
Does this look OK?
Thanks
Ed

The page file is a Windows system file that is used as temporary storage... the default is your boot drive, you may change the location

Screen Message"File iTines Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" What is this and how can it be fixed?

Screen Message on P.C. "File "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.
What is this and how can it be fixed, please?

Problem solved by doing the following:
Open PC/Mac and search for iTunes Library.
From the list, select the most recent version of iTunes Library. Save this to a folder.
Delete iTunes from your computer.
Install latest version of iTunes.
When I opened the new version of iTunes, everything was there as before.
I didn't need to import the saved version of iTunes Library. Maybe this happens automatically?????

They appear as mounted DMG files.If you right click on them mdo they have an Eject entry?
Have you set the OS to Show All Files with a terminal command? If so take that off for now.
Look in your Home folder (Users/UserName) and then the Desktop subfolder under it. Do you see all these files/folders/drives?

Hi. SiteAdvisor is usually located in Firefox's add ons extensions. Hope this helps.

Norton Firewall logging connections from usr/sbin/nmbd every 6 seconds... What is this, and how can I stop it?

This whole situation first started with a complaint from my ISP that it appeared I had a trojan virus... around 1100-1200 messages per hour were being run through their servers via my account. I have also Anti-Virus enabled, so I was left scratching my head...
No viruses found on a full scan - so I started watching processes and connections. This nmbd process is suspicious... I don't run windows file sharing, nor have I ever. This just popped up recently. I also had two mac tech support calls, and one to Symantec - and it ran fine for a couple of days - but it's back again.
What is this, and how can I find the culprit, and remove it permanently...?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
--Jeff

Thanks Thomas, appreciate the insight! Thanks for taking the time to help me think through this...
I have reset the password twice now...
It's only impacting one account, and the ISP says it's local to me - somewhere on my local network.
I do have a few devices on my home network. The only one with windows is my macbook air running parallels. I just use this to browse some web projects I work on (view in IE to make sure everything is looking like it should).
The passwords I have used both times - they were ones set by my isp - the type you can't remember, they seem rather strong (upper/lower case letters, numbers, symbols). That's what leads me to believe it's also local - something on my machine. And it only seems to be impacting one email account (I have 5 running in Mac Mail).
WiFi network is protected by WPA2 - just checked to be sure. All good there.
Now, in Norton Firewall log - I can see incoming and outgoing connections via Windows File Sharing/nmbd.
The reason I feel/felt that this is related to the spam sends is that once I saw the number of connects, and roughly equals the number of sends per hour of spam - I stopped the process with the firewall and suddenly my isp says the spam sends stop. That led me to believe they are related. Perhaps this virus or malware has spoofed it's name and is identifying itself as nmbd? I have no idea. Just scared to turn it all off just yet.
I did notice that Moutain Lion does not run this... (nmbd).
I did wonder about the Air sending something off of windows - but this all happened while it was off, laying on the desk next to me. It rarely gets used unless I'm testing or traveling.
I can understand nmbd being useful part of the system, I cannot understand how it would be very useful if I didn't turn it on, it connects at that frequency, and I don't have file sharing enabled. That's why I am hesitant to turn Norton off, and hope that everything just goes away. I want to try and get this problem figured out as simply turning Norton off doesn't seem like I'm taking steps to eliminate the problem. Perhaps Norton is causing other issues - and I'll be removing the software asap - but want to make sure the spam sends cease.
Let me know if that sparks any ideas... Thanks again!

You need to fresh install 10.6, programs fresh form original sources and return only vetted files (no TM migrations) from a regular storage drive
But this when erasing the drive use the Security Option: Zero All Data before installing 10.6
What has happened your data got corrupted and it's corrupted on the TM drive too.
So the Zero will map off bad sectors on your drive, the 10.6 install will be fresh, the programs will be fresh and only files will be returned, you'll find out in short order which ones they are.

You're not obligated to insert a gift code. But you can purchase gift codes on the Apple online store (gift cards or certificates) or Apple Retail store
Gift codes are pre paid cards so you can use credit on the iTunes Store to purchase content

Can't talk to other apple products outside of wifi or when I don't have data. What's wrong and how can I fix it ?

So I just bought a new iPhone 4S and I have to share my data with four other people so to avoid using it up I use wifi whenever possible. I use iMessage to talk to iPhones but when I'm not around wifi or when I don't have any more data, I don't receive any of their regular SMS messages but I can send them. I checked my friend's iPhone and he receives my message as an SMS but when he replied it was still in iMessage. Is it not detecting that my iMessage is off ?What's wrong and
how can I fix it ?

I think I fixed the apps, though.
*Turn off your wifi and only turn it on when you want to use it
*Lower your brightness
*Turn off "Push" on notifications and mail and turn on "Manual"
*Return to your home screen and then double click twice and tap and hold one of the apps you've previously opened, when they jiggle tap the red on each app until fully erased.
*Don't use your ipod while it is charging, allow at least a 10 minute charge (fully charged) before using it again.
See if this helps(: ... I still have no answer bout the camera issue. I might be going to apple soon so we will see then.
