When I want to edit a photo in photoshop, iphoto duplicates the image and I end up with two or three copies of the same photo and they are also duplicated on my computer. This has only occurred since I installed iPhoto 11.
Ever since I installed iPhoto '11 on my computer, I have had a problem with images being duplicated when I want to open an image to edit in Photoshop. I did not realize at first that the images were also duplicated on my computer. This has taken up an incredible amount of space on my computer. Why does this happen? Is there a problem with the software? Can I remove iPhoto and re-install? Would that help?
saUnless you have a copy of your iPhoto 09 library you will have to start over from scratch with a new library and import the Masters file from inside iPhoto 11's library as described here:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Origianls (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.

Following 10.9.2 update my outlook quits 30 seconds after opening it, anyone experiencing the same issue?
@Bee, there is no update patch from Microsoft since the 10.9.2 OS update. I'm not sure if this will help with the OP's issue but I found a fix for my issue. Just hold down the Option key when launching Outlook. It will launch a Database Utility that backs up the original identity and reloads it. It worked fine after that and all my emails were in tact (thank goodness).

when i first open firefox homepage (opens with google as set by firefox) after about 3 seconds the page freezes and cannot be closed or minimised. i have to open second homepage to shut pc down or continue to use pc. this has only happened since i installed firefox 4. what do i do to fix this
I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6. -
When I send a PDF attachment by email the recipient sees only a blank unfilled form. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated. The email with the PDF when recieved by my MAC is OK, but my phone and iPad are not!
Any advise would be appreciated.I have the same problem. Sought to insert a pdf into Apple Mail after editing a form pdf and only the blank form shows. I didn't use Preview to generate the form, just Acrobat. And, the filled in form inserts perfectly into an email when I use Outlook for Mac. Problem only with Apple Mail.

Hi after upgrading to mountain lion my mail rules keep disappearing??? this has only happened since i installed mountain lion.
I had Mountain Lion on two Macs. Mail rules were set up on a third Mac running Lion. I migrated everything on the Lion Mac across to a new iMac running Mountain Lion so now I have Mail rules on a Mountain Lion Mac. At least I should have. Several times a day the rules disappear. I assume this is iCloud synching messing up. I keep re-entring the rules but they vanish again and I'm getting tired of the game.
Large chunk of my Safari bookmarks bar also disappear at random intervals. It seems that iCloud can handle two Mountain Lion Macs on the same Apple ID, but can't cope with three. -

Why isn't my device showing up on either the sidebar or upper right hand corner of the screen? This has only occurred after updating to the new ITunes update?
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I have noticed recently that deleted e mail messages do not disappear from the screen. Instead they turn grey until I switch to another mailbox. When I return, they are gone. Any idea why this has started to happen?

Devices show 'Cannot connect to itunes store' when try to purchase via device. However able to purchase via computer therefore password is correct. I purchased a rental film yesterday via ipad so this has just occured today. I've tried rebooting both devices and re sincing with itunes, but the problem remains. I back up via computer not icloud if this makes a difference, which it shouldn't. Any ideas??
I had this exact issue. However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information. I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself). I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved. I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
Voila! I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue. -
This happens every time I click on a button or text that does something like, after entering some information then clicking on say, a button to "Continue". The screen freezes and the little symbol on the left hand side of the tab stops rotating, but starts as soon as I move the mouse. If I stop moving the mouse the screen freezes again. I also have installed on my computer the application, '''SafeCentral''', which I know uses Firefox. This problem has only been encountered since I updated to version 6 and also when SafeCentral update the Firefox version they use.
Wired or what!
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
Regards
Michael MurrayThank you for your prompt reply.
I think you have identified the problem straight away, well done!
I first encountered the problem a couple of months ago with an update on Safe Central, (protected environment) software. SC uses the Firefox browser. I won't insult you by explaining what the program does, I'm sure know better that I. I didn't have this problem with Version 5 of Firefox, so I conclude the easiest way to solve this issue would be for me to uninstall v. 6 and reinstall V. 5. As I only use SC for online shopping I can live with this miner irritation. I also notice the Trend Micro Toolbar, though it appears on the Firefox screen, does not monitor the web sites or check email addresses.
So the TM boffins also have a problem with V.6, but I wager they aren't aware of it yet. Just in closing, I also use Chrome and Internet Explorer that work perfectly well. The problem defiantly lies with Mozilla.
Kind regards

I continue to receive an App upgrade notice for an App that is not on my computer. After spending several hours with a variety of divisions (Lion,iTunes,iPad,iMac) of Apple Tech Support, none can give me any definitive explanation or solution. Prior to my recent upgrade to Lion, this did not occur. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you resolve the issue?
You get an update notice for an app that is not installed on your Mac. Is there a stranger's Apple ID also appearing on your Mac related with this update?
If so, you have a pirated app on your Mac. If not, it should be another issue. -
On some sites the visited link color does not change. I have checked all settings and they have not changed. I can make the problem change by unchecking the "allow pages to choose thier own colors" box , but the some pages do not display correctly. Things worked fine up to a few weeks ago. I feel it may be a glitch in firefox 29.
Windows 7 home premium SP 1
Firefox 29Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
*'''Windows/Mac''': Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
*'''Linux''': Run ''firefox -safe-mode'' in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*[[Image:new fx menu]] > Options/Preferences> Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*[[Image:new fx menu]] > Options/Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies" -

Since recently upgrading to the latest ITunes,on start up I get an error message:
"AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry point not found .
Procedure entry point xml TextReader Constname could not be located in

Any body come across this? Any solutions?Doublechecking, Dad:
I have also reloaded all other iTunes software.
Did you use the following document as a guide?
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
(If we're looking at program file damage down in Apple Application Support or Apple Mobile Device Support, the 2. Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled section is very important.)
