Why can't I email iphone 5 videos from my mac? They show up black

After I import videos from my iphone 5 (OS 7.1.2 - but I've had this problem through multiple operating systems), I sometimes want to email them from my MacBook Pro (OS X Lion 10.7.5). No matter what email program I use, (gmail/mac mail), the attachment sends a movie that is just a black screen. The problem seems to be in the way they are stored, because when I go to attach the video (into videos and then iphone videos), all the videos look like they are stored as images. They play just fine in iphoto from my computer though. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Sara

They are removed. The "not on iPhone" List is exactly that, a list telling you what is NOT installed on your phone.
The "Not in iPhone" list is part fo our Purchased history. You cannot delete purchased items form the purchase history. Apple uses this list to known which Apps you have bought and as such have access to for free download again. Deleting an App from that list would defeat its purpose.
You can hide them from the purchased list though.

Why can I not import the videos from my iPhone 4 onto my desktop (Windows Vista)? When I plug in it imports the photos without a problem but it doesn't seem to import the videos.

1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

Why can't I email photos direct from iPhoto?

Why can't I email photos directly from iPhoto, or even attach them to email?

I get a dotted frame outline with an exclamation
This is the source of all the problems. iPhoto can't mail the files because it cannot find them.
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming it's 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Why can't I print a pdf from my mac pro to my printer?

why can't I print a pdf from my mac pro to my printer?

Don't know! You'll have to give us more details of what's happening when you try. Can you print other documents OK? When you try to print, does the printer icon appear in the dock - click on it and see if there are any printer messages.

Why can I no longer access google from my mac with either Firefox or Safari

why can I no longer access google from my mac with either Firefox or Safari — both with latest updates loaded. My PC is fine.

What was before? And what is now?
It is a good idea to include the machine type and OS version in your problem posts.

There is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know, but according to reports, it can sometimes mean that the same Apple ID is being used with the iTunes Store or one of the other Apple content stores, and the payment method is invalid. Sign in to the store and review your account. You do not, of course, have to provide any billing information to set up an account to use only with iMessage, as it's a no-charge service.
Otherwise, do what the alert tells you to do. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID" as the product and cite the customer code in the alert as the "validation code" to the representative.

Why can't I login to iMessages from my Mac?

Why can't I login to iMessages from my Mac? It just started all of a sudden, all my iMessage conv's are offline. I tried but get an error message that states "Your Apple ID "xxxxxxxx" can't be used to set up iMessage at this time" and then a customer code to contact apple. This would require a pay for advice payment I'd rather not do.
Anyone have any ideas?

Plug the phone and iPad into your computer and sync them.

Why can I not sync my videos on my Mac computer to my iPad

I'm trying to put videos on my iPad from my computer and it says that my iPad will not sync because my iPad does not accept the software, but my boyfriend has the iPad 2 and he was able to put the videos from the Mac computer on to his ipad2

I've just been given the best advice - transfer the clip to i Movie and then export to i Tunes.
I think being this simple, it should be explained by Mac support.

Why can't i email my video? It says it is too long.

Please can you tell me why my iPad is telling me I can't email a video to myself. I get a message saying it is too long. The reason I can't understand this is as follows:
1. The clip is quite short - maybe a minute or so.
2. I am sending it via MY OWN wifi network (so it has no impact on my carrier)
3. I am sending it to MY OWN email account on MY OWN network server (so it's not as if there are any space or bandwidth issues anywhere)
I hope there is a workaround. I don't want to have to carry around my MacBook with my iPad just so that I can send short videos via email.

Lex,
You say that it has nothing to do with Apple but they are the people that write the email code that generates the message aren't they?
Regarding your "You can see how big the file is: in Finder right click on the file, and 'get info'.", there is no Finder app on the iPad is there? I assume that to find out how big the file is, I would first have to get it onto the Mac?

Why can't i email a document from pages since upgrading to yosemite

since upgrading to yosemite i cannot email a document from pages. the "send via email" won't highlight and nothing happens

The Send a Copy option is only in Pages v5.5.1 on Yosemite, and is accessible from the Share toolbar item on the document window. In your case, with Pages ’09 v4.3, as I mentioned, the Menu > Share > Send via Email items are inoperable with Yosemitie.
You workaround is to use the Menu > Share > Export > PDF… option, or the File > Export > PDF… option — and then drag/drop the PDF from disk onto your Mail message body after the content. Or, you can use the paper-clip icon in the Mail Compose toolbar to attach the PDF. The PDF will appear as a page in your email. Right-click (two-finger tap) on this image, and from the contextual menu — select icon view.
Yes, it subverts set behavior patterns. Apple isn't concerned with end-of-life application compatibility with future OS X versions.

Why have most all email messages disappeared from the folders they were stored in?

I have 57 folders set up in TB. All had multiple email messages stored in them. These file folders were used regularly without any problem. One day I accessed one of the folders and it was empty. It turned out that all folders were empty except for eight and those eight had files missing. I was at a complete loss as to what had happened. I then remembered that System Mechanic, which I have installed, had found something like 124,000 misaligned files prior to this problem and had proceeded to fix the problem. I don't recall if I had tried to reference any of my TB stored emails immediately after the misaligned file problem was "fixed" or several days had passed since this misaligned file problem was "fixed". I have had both TB and System Mechanic installed for 3+ years without any problem. Has anyone had this problem with or without System Mechanic installed.
Thank you for any help offered.

Yes they can. Connect your iPhone to your computer, open itunes, click on info and click on sync contacts. Alternatively you can go to your phone settings, iCloud and deselect the contacts option. A dialogue box or whatever that thing is should come up, select keep on my iPhone. Wait a few minutes and reselect it again and choose merge when it asks you to. Let me know if that solves your problem. It happened to me on my iPhone 4s and I just fixed it a few minutes ago.

Can I restore an iPhone backup from a Mac in a Windows PC?

I have copied the files from Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup from my Mac to a USB stick and I have to use these backup files on a Windows PC.
Will these files from an iTunes for Mac work on an iTunes for Windows?
Thanks,
Rafael

You can restore the backups to a device running the same or a newer iOS version, but not an older one. For example, if a backup was made from iOS 8.2, it can be restored to a device running 8.2 or 8.3, but not 8.1.3 or earlier.

Why can't I select a video from my iPhoto library to send via email?

I send a lot of photos and used to send videos but now I can't select a video like I do a photo in the library. I have a newer hard drive and use OSX version 10.5.8 wihich I believe is Leopard. I've updated all that is available. Any suggestions?

Can you directly redowload it directly to the iPod by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
