When I add an event to iCalendar on my computer with no alert, why does it show up on my phone with an alert?

I use iCalendar often for work, so I add a lot of events at one time on my computer and sync them with my other devices thru iCloud. When I add events on my MacBook I make sure that they do not have any alerts. When they sync to my iPhone, for some reason they have alerts attached to them. The alerts only show up on my phone, they do not show up on my computer. Why is this happening and how do I prevent it? Obviously I can go thru all the events on my phone and turn off the alerts one by one, but I literally have 100s of events each week and will go crazy if I have to go thru each one. There has to be a way to stop this from happening. Please help.

Have you checked your iPhone>Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Calendars>Default Alert Times settings?

Check Settings> Mail, Contacts & Calndars> Calendars> Sync. You probably have it set to a vey short period of time.

When I add an event to my exchange calendar in my iphone5 it no longer syncs with ms exchange, can this be fixed?

We use MS Exchange for our business Contacts, Email and Calendars. When I add an event to my exchange calendar in my iphone5 it will not syncronize to my exchange server, it does works from ms exchange to the phone. Can this be fixed?

This functionality generally works fine for most people.
It's going to come down to specific details regarding your Exchange Server version and a whole lot of stuff.

Change your time zones in the settings, They are not on the same time zones.

When I add and event to Calendar on iCloud it updates my ipod with an event 3 hours ahead.

I'm also having a music issue. When my phone is attached to the computer (mac running 10.6.8) it looks like my music is there but its gray and I can't play anything. I've tried to delete it and it won't let me but it does not show up on my phone.

By the way, I have tried shutting of the display switching in the power settings. That was basically the only real answer I found anywhere. It didn't work.

HT1390 I've rented & downloaded a movie on my computer in itunes, but it does not show up on my Apple TV. Everything else shows up on Apple TV, including my computer's movie library. When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it.

When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it and asks if I want to rent it again. No, I just want to watch it.

Unfortunately I have to if I download it on my computer. I have rented itunes movies before directly using the Apple TV and it worked just fine and I could stay in the living room. Without clicking that icon on my computer, there was no way to watch it.

1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

When filtering by keyword and using "Edit In" with Photoshop, edited file does not show up in list

When I do an "edit in" using CS5 and save it, the edited file does not show up in my LR4 preview window.
Message title was edited by: Brett N

There are two distinct modes by which Edit In... may first open an image into PS: as a fully pre-converted rendered file; or as an on-the-fly converted image in memory.
(When LR opens a PS-edited image a second time into PS, using "Edit Original", the former option is always used.)
In the latter case, it is ACR which does this on-the-fly conversion, working from the original image (as imported into LR) plus your subsequent LR adjustment metadata. This means ACR compatibility with LR becomes an issue - as it is not, with the pre-rendered file option.
There is a useful clue to which mode is being used:
the title of the PS document window, in the case of the on-the-fly conversion, still shows the name of the Raw file (or whatever) that you started with in LR... no file has been saved as yet, to say any different. You can Save or Save as, wherever and under whatever name, and from now on LR will look there for your edited image. Or if you close unsaved, LR has no edited image to show at all.
the title of the PS document window in the pre-rendered case, is the name of a file already saved on disk and already showing in LR. If you then saved this elsewhere, you would merely make a duplicate which LR cannot know about - and if this duplicate is the one which contains your PS work, LR will accordingly not show that. It is busy showing the content of the specific file that was passed to PS.
So, if inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334.dng - you can save it wherever you like. If inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334-edit.tif - you will have to save your changes back to that exact same file, in order for them to be seen in LR.

Why does the file Name for file attached with Annotations "Attach File" (paperclip) become Unknown when Comments are Published?

Our company recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for the purpose of using it for shared electronic reviews. We are using Send for Shared Review created in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, and all the Comment tools work as expectedexcept the paperclip in Annotations.
When a Word or Excel or Image(png,jpeg) file is attached using the Annotations paperclip, the initiator can initially see and open it. But after Publish Comments is selected and the review file is closed, the file "Name" changes to "Unknown" (although the Description has the correct file name and extension). The Modified information is Unknown, as is the Size and Compressed Size.
When the review file is then re-opened, even the initiator cannot open the file, although:
The file location is marked with the paperclip within the document.
The file name is shown in the Comments List with the initiator's name.
In the Attachments list (the paperclip beneath the Thumbnails and Bookmarks) the Name appears as Unknown, Description shows the file name, Modified is Unknown, Size is Unknown, and Compressed Size is Unknown.
The file Name cannot be edited, although the file Description can be.
We have followed the procedure described in the tutorials but cannot figure out how to troubleshoot this situation. Since this feature was the reason for the purchase of Adobe Acrobat Pro IX, we would any help. Please don't leave out any basics since we are all new users.
We have several people with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and the rest have Adobe Reader XI and it is a Windows platform. Can someone please give us some advice how to get this feature to work as described?

FYI Rave,
There are some other forum entries with this exact same issue...:
