Why can't folders be bigger on the homepage of IPads,phones,and pods?, Why can't folders be bigger on the homepage of IPads,phones,and pods?

Why can't they uses the swipe feature like they do for multiple pages of apps? It gets frustrating having a whole bunch of folders that have the same content.

They probably can.  They simply do not.

  • Why can't I see the message in my hotmail folders?

    When I click on one of my folders in hotmail, I get the message" No message selected" . But when I go to on my laptop to folders in hotmail, I can see my messages in the selected folder. Why can't I see them on my iPad. My daughter in-law has got iPad 2 and she can see her messages in her hotmail folders.
    Anneke.

    Try quitting the mail app completely and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, reset your iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Why the duplicate Applications folders and which one(s) can I trash?

    I've tried to disregard the duplicate Applications folders on my HD and double Mail programs in my dock but would like to trash any I don't need (I'm the only user of my machine). I see that there's an Applications folder in my HD icon (under "Devices"); an Applications folder in my Finder window (under "Places"), and an Applications folder accessible by clicking on my name in the Finder window (also under "Places"). Although it appears there are 3 Applications folders / Mail programs, a search in Finder suggests there are actually 2: one is traceable to HD (hard disk); the other is traceable to my name. Which of these is "safe" to trash? (I don't understand why my Finder must contain two Applications folders--frequently resulting in the appearance of duplicate Mail programs in my dock. Any clarification/suggestions appreciated. Cap

    Thanks. That helps me with the concept, and I see that there can only be one "real" Applications folder which is under Devices and labeled Macintosh HD. Perhaps what I'm trying to say is that the below that, in the Places area, the programs in the "Applications" of my "Home Folder" (the little house followed by my name) don't agree with the programs in the "Applications" folder right underneath it. The latter Applications Folder agrees with the one on my Hard Drive, it has the new iTunes program, etc. whereas the programs in the Applications Folder of my Home Folder are different (the old iTunes program, etc.). I guess I'm saying that the Applications Folders of my Hard Drive and of my Home Folder are at odds. I'm simply going to try following your idea--drag the Applications Folder from my Home Folder onto the desktop, replace it with the Applications Folder from my Hard Drive, then go through the eternity of trashing the old Home Folder Applications Folder
    that will by now be copied on my Desktop. (Wish I new of a faster way of trashing the many programs.) I'll let you know if it works. Thanks again, Cap

  • Why when i set up folders for my photos do they also appear in the photo library can I only have them appear in the folders???

    Why when i set up folders for my photos do they also appear in the photo library can I only have them appear in the folders and not duplicated in the photo library???

    Not sure about the missing photos from the Photo Stream section of 'Recent', however to stop photos populating the events, turn off Automatic Import (iPhoto Preferences > Photo Stream)

  • Why can't I see the rss mail box in mail? Where is the all folders in the mail?

    Why can't I see the RSS mail box in mail in OS X Mountian Lion? Where is the all folders option in the mail?
    Thanks

    The previous Mail did have:
    MAILBOXES
    ON MY MAC
    The above separated the mailboxes slightly.
    Yes, the On My Mac has been removed and everthing comes under one heading of Mailboxes now.
    All my mailboxes are there that I had before though.

  • Why can't I edit images in the develop module? It's telling me folders cannot be found.

    Why can I not edit images in the develop module? It is telling me that the source folders cannot be found.

    When I click on the RSS button, I got this
    message:
    "Safari can’t open the page “feed://wwwhome.cs.utwente.nl/~fiorezet/UT/Publications/rss.xml”. The error was: “unknown error” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1)
    Will need to look further into that one.
    I used the Feed Validator Website to check my RSS files. The Website says: "This feed does not validate". The site also shows in which lines the errors are. The link below shows what I mean:

  • Why can't I create FOLDERS under my iPod name in the DEVICES heading?

    Note: I have my iTunes set to "MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC".
    I can create Folders, subfolders and playlists under the PLAYLISTS heading.
    Under my iPod name in the DEVICES heading, iTunes only lets me create a PlayList. No Folders.
    Questions:
    Do I need to AUTO sync to get the folder heirarchy and songs created under the PLAYLISTS heading onto the iPod?
    How do I create a Folder under my iPod name in the DEVICES heading? This appears to be a bug and/or another iTunes limitation. I tried it and whenever a new folder is seleted, the folder appears under the PLAYLISTS.

    *Why are you creating playlists for albums and artists?*
    Why is that relevant? This is an Apple product which, historically, has allowed its users to file information any way they saw fit! Why suddenly impose arbitrary restrictions on how I organize my own data?
    +The earlier version of iTunes DID allow you to create folders in the iPod+
    *Only when autosycning*
    *You can be frustrated all you want but the feature has not been removed.*
    Yes the feature HAS BEEN removed. I currently am holding a prior generation nano in my hand which, in iTunes 6, allows me to MANUALLY create folders in it and drag playlists to the folders. I can nest folders and create any hierarchy I want. Since I am doing it MANUALLY, I can use the same ipod on several computers and collect selected audio files from each of those computers. The new version of iPod/iTunes simply has REMOVED this feaure and it is now only available if you autosynch. Like I said, I currently have free use of folders on an older gen ipod in MANUAL mode.
    The software is too concerned with whether you are pirating copyrighted material and does not at all take into account LEGAL use of the iPod! As a matter of fact, I use the iPod to store audio tracks of live presentations and need an easy way to archive these on a single ipod from several computers. The most efficiient way to do this is to MANUALLY transfer the files from each computer to the iPod, and put them in their corresponding folders on the iPod. I have been doing this for over a year on the previous generation nano and iTunes 6 with no sweat. But new iPod required 7.5 iTunes and I can no longer create folders on the iPod in manual mode. This requires a long linear stream of playlists that cannot be organized into category, computer of origin, etc. As such, I can no longeruse the new iPod for my very simple application of archiving/playing non-copyrighted audio files which have no prior id3 info.
    See?

  • Why is iTunes not able to pick up certain photo folders from iPhoto? Camera and image sizes are similiar to the ones which can be picked up.

  • Why is it that I can't receive the email to reset my security questions and answers.. My email information is all accurate but I'm not receiving the email and I've even checked spam and junk folders.. Can someone please help me please???

    Are you able to receive any mail at all? If not, make sure that all of your information for mail is accurate in settings again. if you still have nothing, go to your email through safari. (example: www.yahoo.com) If you do not see the emails here either, it is a problem with the password reset server not your mail app.

    You can reformat the drive but that will wipe all the data on it. Move everything to your Mac. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility. If you need both Mac and Windows access, I suggest ExFAT. Then move it all back

  • Why does my MAC convert the folders in USB into .lnk? Can´t open them

    I don´t know why my MAC now convert all the folders in my USB into .lnk
    I can´t open them.
    Need help!

    I have the same problem, two of my external hard drives have been infected by the shortcut virus.
    It's time and would be helpful if someone from Apple took the time to solve this question.
    I'm wondering if all my Time Machine Backups are also going to be infected by the virus.
    Who cares if its of PC or Mac origin: it's affecting Mac related material!
    I cant open the films that I edited on Mac (using avid mc).
    So far, the only link I've found to remove the malware using a Mac is this one:

  • I clicked to open one of my mail folders and when it opened, it immediately deleted all of the items in it!  Why and can I get them back???

    In my email app, I clicked to open one of my mail folders.  When it opened, it immediately deleted all of the emails inside that folder.  This happened with all the others too.  How can I stop this and is it possible to get that mail back.

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • Why can't I view my bookmark folders in alphabetical order when I click on the bookmark button on the browser? Is there a way to see the folders in alphabetical order all the time?

    I click on the bookmarks button on the Firefox browser and the folders that hold the bookmarks are not in any particular order. I would like the folders to be in alphabetical order when I see them...when I click on the bookmarks button at the top of the browser. When I go to organize bookmarks I can sort them so they are in alphabetical order, but they do not show up that way when you just click on the bookmark button to get to your bookmarks. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

  • Can't figure out why the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" is disabled Compressed (zipped) Folders

    I recently had to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Now with the new version it will not allow me to click the check box "Do this automatically for files like this from now on". The line is disabled and a light gray. I went into the Applications tab under options and can't find the Compressed (zipped) Folders file type either.
    I download a bunch of files for work and to have to click is going to be the biggest pain. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

  • Why can't I change the icon of my file folders?

    I'm trying to follow these directions (pasted below) that I found in Finder Help, but can't do Step 3. There is no icon in the info window that I can select. Can you please help? I have some folders for which it would be extremely helpful to show an image from their contents rather than the generic blue folder.
    Thank you so much!
    To use your own picture or a picture from the web:
    Copy the picture you want to use to the Clipboard.One way to do this is to open the picture in Preview, choose Edit > Select All, and then choose Edit > Copy.
    Select the file or folder whose icon you want to replace and choose File > Get Info. 
    At the top of the Info window, click the picture of the icon to select it, and then choose Edit > Paste.

    Thank you SO much! Funny thing, I didn't even notice the tiny folder icon at the top of the info window until I saw it in the screen shot at the beginning of that article. 
    See, I have begun changing the icons of the folders of digital scrapbooking alphabets I have (screenshot below). Now it will be so much easier to scroll through my hundreds of alphas and choose one, because I can SEE them without going in and out of each folder.
    A million thank yous!!!!!
