When trying to update applications, where can you find an account you used to purchase the application?
The App Store has had the little red notification saying I have two new updates to download, for iPhoto and iMovie, but when I go to download them it says "please log into the account you used to purchase the application." I am not sure which account this would be, as I have only had one account on my computer since I purchased it from the Apple Store online.
Please help.
Also, a side note not related to this issue: I have been having problems with system preferences as well, when trying to change the background image the rainbow starts spinning automatically and then it becomes unresponsive.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First of all, I suppose that you bought a brand-new Mac, right? If not, you won't be able to update iPhoto and iMovie, because they are registered to another Apple ID.
If you have a brand-new Mac, first try this > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4236 If it doesn't work, check that iPhoto and iMovie aren't hidden on your account, so unhide them > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 After doing this, try updating iPhoto and iMovie again.
If nothing works, contact with the App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact
Respecting to your second problem, your Desktop settings file is corrupted. To fix it, follow these steps:
1. While you are on Desktop without any application opened, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type ~/Library/Preferences.
2. Delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist", and restart

Pls i was trying to update my iphone 3G to software version 4.2 using itune. The process did not complete succesfully. I then decided to restore back my restore my prevoius version 4.1, it stopped with an error code1015. Pls i need help
Go here: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=750 and download iOS 4.2.1 for the iPhone 3G. Perform a restore, but hold down ALT when clicking restore. Restore from this file you just downloaded. You should not get 1015 as you are upgrading, but if you get a different error, report back.

Where can I find a general information about settings of the PCI-IMAQ-1411 board?
There is many attributes in the properties dialog of the IMAQ channel in the M&A Explorer. For example Mode (Frame/Field), Lock speed (Slow/Normal/Fast/Very Fast), Luma Comb (Disabled/Enabled). Where can I find a comprehensible description of them?
The starting point is the help file. There is a section with the title: "Setting IMAQ Device and Camera Properties". That section provide some explanations about the properties and options to configure your IMAQ cameras.
You can obtain more information by visiting the Developer Zone at the NI website. Look for the Vision section at the Resource Library. The exact address is:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/devzone.nsf/webproducts/7d6146d8c67a832e862567f1006c29ee?opendocument
You will find explanations, tutorials and examples about different topics in vision, including configuration descriptions.
Finally, a full understanding of some properties requires knowledge about vision and image processing. A good book about Image Processing in general should be of benefit.

Where can i find more information about using or nesting formulas
where can i find more information about using or nesting formulas
I am not aware there is a resource specific to nesting functions. this comes from understanding each function (or at least the description in the function help).
a great resource is the function reference which you can see by typing the "=" sign in any cell:
the important thing to note is:
1) what are the inputs to the function and
2) what does the function return (the output)
the if() function (listed above) takes three inputs and returns one output. These forums are a great resource! -

Where can i find a list of my app purchases?
Where can i find a list of my app purchases? There is a charge on my credit card to apple and i do not know what it is for. Is there anywhere that has a list of my purchases?
Yes, you can go into iTunes, go to the store, and near the top left there is a button for your Apple ID. Right click on this and go to "View Account". Scroll down on that page and there is a section with a link to view your purchases.
Alternatively refer to here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727 -

I imported vacation photos from my cameras SD card and deleted them when the import was complete. Then I moved them from Events into an Album. When trying to move 2 photos as once to another album I got the color wheel and locked up. I did a force quit but when I go back into iPhoto none of the recently imported photos appear - not in Events, the album, trash, etc. Where can I find those photos?
backup the iPhoto Library and launch iPhoto while depressing and holding the option and command keys until the first aid window appears - rebid your iPhoto library
