    Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?

    Don't understand your question - "manage storage"? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to connect to your computer? Are you trying to free up some storage space?
    How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Why does my iMac not shut down when I try to shut it down?

    Wh does my iMac not shut down, or restart when I try to do either.  It just sits there with the little loading circle continuously moving.  The only way I can shut it down is if I hold down the power button to shut it down.  Can anyone tell me why this is?
    Thanks!

    Open your Activity Monitor and check to see what is running?
    If there is some important Process running, then it is better to wait until it has finished instead of cutting the power and corrupting who knows what?
    If there is nothing important running, then follow the instructions in the link below for resetting the SMC.

  • Why does Local Folders not show up when I install Thunderbird on certain computers?

    I've installed Thunderbird on my computer and it looks normal with "Local Folders" showing up in the left pane. I didn't add an email account, I just installed Thunderbird and an add-on called ImportExport tool and left it with only Local Folders. But when I try to do the same thing and install it on someone else's computer to help them import an .mbox file, when I install Thunderbird on their computer, "Local Folders" is not there. The left pane is just completely blank. And it looks like I can't import an .mbox file without it being there. I tried installing it on another laptop too and the same thing happened with no Local Folders. Why is "Local Folders" not showing up for these other two computers?

    I circumvented the problem by copying the c:\users\username\appdata\local\thunderbird folder and the c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\thunderbird folder from my working PC to the nonworking computers, and Local Folders appeared in Thunderbird on those computers. It seems like these files aren't being generated properly on installation.
    I tried uninstalling Thunderbird from my working PC and reinstalling it again to see what would happen (after also deleting those two appdata folders so that fresh ones would be created), and this time Local Folders did not appear on my PC as well. I don't think I did anything different during installation either. So I'm not sure why the Local Folders are no longer being generated at installation.

  • Why does Apple Tv not show folders created in iPhoto 11?

    Hi,
    I am new to Iphoto. So far used Picasa and would like to change. I have created Albums (2012.7 sommer holiday  , 2012.6 birthday son, 2011.10 birtthday daughter, 1999 wedding etc). Since there are hundreds of albums (lot of pics in the last 45 years), I've put these albums into folders (family picture 1999, family picture 2000, family picture 2001 etc etc). So the list in iPhoto is not too long and I can find quickely whatever album or picture I am looking for. That works great on the iMac using Iphoto but when I want to watch the picture on Apple TV, Apple TV is not showing the folders instead it is just ignoring totally the yearly folders and shows the whole list of all albums. Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone has experience with that?
    Thks for help
    Markus

    There seems to be no real solution, but I have discovered a work around which I have tested. The photo albums themselves won't live in separate folders, but you can create an album with the same name as your folder with a single photo in it, so that the albums are separated. I also like to add the year first to chronologically order them. I know that this may take a while as you have so many photos, but I hope that helps as I was having the same problem.
    For example:
    ...TRAVEL...
    2012 Spain
    2011 Italy
    2010 Thailand
    ...FAMILY...
    2013 Marks 40th Birthday
    2012 Family Reunion
    2011 Bon Voyage Marc

  • Why does Windows 7 not show up in System Preference's "Startup Disk"

    Why does Windows 7, installed via Boot Camp, show up when you hold down the option key when booting but the drive does not show up in System Preferences under the Startup Disk icon.
    As an aside Windows 7 runs perfectly on my MacBook.
    - Mike

    Now I found I'm not alone. My situation is similar but not exactly the same.
    I recently switched from the white MacBook to latest mac mini, tried installing XP Pro not successful for some reasons then tried Win7 (build 7000). On my old macbook this worked perfectly.
    Got win7 updated and picked win7 as startup disk in windows, used that for few days without going back to leopard. On just one occasion I booted with 'alt' key pressed (using a PC keyboard) I have choices of drives so I thought everything was fine. As soon as I booted into leopard I found no win7 partition in system>preference>startup disk, OMG I couldn't boot back to win7 since then. From that point onwards the 'alt' key didn't work for me. Every time only leopard can be booted.
    What can I do now?
    Why it was OK in macbook but didn't work on mini? Is it worth investing on a mac external keyboard just to get the 'option' key?

  • Why does the iTunes not show "Photos"

    Why does the new iTunes not show "Photos" after it is synced, and why does iCloud not show Photos also?

    Ralph9430 offers a good suggestion.  But you may need to do this before taking his advice:
    Check in iPhoto's Preferences (which you can open from the iPhoto menu).  Look in General, and make sure "Connecting Camera Opens" is set to "Image Capture").
    If it is set to "iPhoto", you won't be able to get to Image Capture easily.

  • I am trying to put a caption on a photo. Why does the caption not show in the photo?

    In iPhoto, I would like to insert a CAPTION in the photo. When i enter my caption, it shows on the screen on top, but does not show in my slide show pictures.
    Can you help?

    Adding a caption will add metadata tags to the photo, but not write the text as a graphics annotation overlay to the picture. The slideshow themes do not include the metadata tags. If you want to present the photos with captions, swipe them nanually and not as a slideshow.
    You would need to find a different app to add graphic overlays to the photos for text written onto the photo.

  • Why does my ipod not show up under my mac devices?

    When I go under devices on the finder list my ipod does not show up. I have restarted my mac and reconnected the ipod to both usb ports and it still doesn't show up . It does however show up under itunes, which doesn't help as I want to manually sync music from ipod to mac? unless there is another way of syncing music to itunes without having my exsisting music in itunes mix with the music on the ipod ?

    That is normal. the iPod does not appear in Finder.
    The only way to sync music is via iTunes.

  • Why does my imac g5 show a folder in the middle of my screen that loads

    HElp my imac g5 shows a blue folder in the middle of my screen that flashes to the finder logo then back to a question mark and back and forth PLEASE HELP this computer has all my files on it and everything i need answers this is my life

    It means it can't find the hard drive. Get your original gray install disk,insert disk and reboot holding the "C" key until you get the OSX screen. Open Disk Utility and do a Repair Disk on the hard drive. If that works then also do a Repair Permissions. If the Repair Disk doesn't work your hard drive may have failed. My assumption here is you haven't been doing regular backups. If your drive has failed you may have lost all your data.

  • Why does an email not show as read in Mail (Mail 5.2 on Lion 10.7.3) when i read it outside of Mail?

    I use google apps at work thus have a gmail email address.  I have the setting in iCloud set to sync mail but when i read an email on my iphone (or even when i log into gmail directly) it does not show as a read email in Mail.  I would very much like to use Mail on my laptop, but having to read every email multiple times has stopped me from doing so.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello,
    Do you use IMAP settings in Mail on your laptop or is it POP ? The first one is recommanded for what you want and it will sync between devices.
    And check again your preferences in Gmail to see if everything is correct and if IMAP is activated.

  • Why does Premiere Pro not show in the Creative Cloud

    I just bought the montly membership, paid, got the confirmation, but still Premiere Pro does not show in my Creative Cloud options - under audio/video it only shows  and Photoshop, Prelude and Audition.
    When I use the link in the email confirmation that I received I can press 'getting started'.
    This leads me to the online Creative Cload Download - when I scroll to Premiere Pro, click on download I go to the next page, but still the program does not show?
    What should I do differently? I am logged in already.
    Please help me!

    Do you have a 64-bit machine?  Normally the listing will only include programs that your machine is capable of running.  Check your machine capabilities against the requirements for Premiere Pro and see if it comes up short.

    what am I doing wrong?
    thank you

    Not necessarily something you are doing wrong ...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
    If there are any installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If it's not an extension issue, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
    Select the top 6 boxes then click Reset.
    Quit and relaunch Safari.
    If that didn't help, press Command + Option + E on your keyboard to empty the Safari cache and try that link again.
    If that didn't help, try a different DNS.
    Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
    Click + and type in these numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    Click + again and do the same.
    208.67.220.220
    Click Ok.
    Try Safari.
