Why when i copy files from downloads to a new folder,then i delete them from the downloads i will loose the file?

tell me please when i copy files from downloads it will be a new file with new capacity? i mean if a file is 2 mb, when i copy it it will be new 2mb ?

If you copy it to another folder, e.g., Documents, and you can see it in the Downloads folder then you now have two copies of the file. If you delete one copy, the other stays intact. If you keep both, there is no harm, although the amount of disk space used is twice as big as when you only keep one copy.

You remove them the same way you put them there. The sync process.
Deselect them in itunes and sync.

I am trying to stop programs from opening automatically when I turn my computer on. I tried system preferences users and groups login items...then I deleted them from the list but it did nothing.

Hi r,
It sounds like you're running Lion?
Have you tried running Verify and/or Repair Disk?
Have you tried running Repair Permissions?
Do you have at least 15% free space available on your HD?

Hello!
Do you have a Mac computer with Time Machine backups?

HT201272 If I already downloaded my songs then accidentally deleted them from my computer, how can I redownload them? Itunes store shows them as downloaded and unless I go through and try and repurchase each song individually, it wont let me redownload. h

How ccan I redownload my music to the same computer. Downloaded, then deleted, now i tunes won't let me redownload, because I already downloaded. If I go through and try and repurchase the songs it will download them for me but I don't want to have to do that 250 times.

You need to delete the broken entries first, then the tracks will show up with the iCloud download symbols in your purchased histroy and IIRC you can download them all in one go.

How do I remove apps from my app store history after I have deleted them from my iPad?

After trying an app and deciding that is isn't what I want and deleting it, I see that it still shows up when I look at my "purchased" apps in the App Store. I'd like to purge them from my device's history. I don't want them saved or backed up by iTunes, if that could even happen.
Also, App Store on my iPad always shows on its icon that I have more updates than I can find when I go into App Store. For example it may show 2 updates available, but when I go into App Store it says all apps are updated, yet the icon still shows 2 when I return to the home screen. Is this related to the issue above?
Thanks,
Bill

There is no way to remove apps from your purchase history. It simply cannot be done. You can HIDE apps from the purchased tab, but you can NEVER delete them.
iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Support - Apple
As for the updates not clearing, try closing the App Store app and reboot your iPad,
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

HT201302 How do I transfer photos from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone WITHOUT deleting them from my computer?

I have ~5000 photos on my MacBook Pro, only a few if which were taken with my iPhone. If I use Sync in iTunes any photos on my computer that were not taken with my iPhone are deleted from my computer. There is no obvious way to prevent this happening. Could I create a duplicate iPhoto library and "sacrifice" it while syncing my iPhone without losing other libraries? Any other ideas?

No, that doesn't work that way.
Photos on your computer ae not deleted by iTunes. When you sync photos to an iPhone using iTunes, photos on the iPhone that are not in the folders or albums being synced by itunes will be deleted from the iPhone. Photos on your computer should not be touched at all.
Also transferring pictures from the iPhone to a computer has nothing to do with iTunes.
It is done through Photos, iPhoto, Aperture, or even Image Capture.

Use Shift+Delete to remove items from a playlist and the library at the same time.

My husband has retrieved emails from my exchange email account. I deleted them from the trash bin. How is he doing this?

OK, let's come back to the original issue; how are deleted messages retrievable?
First, is the account set up as an Exchange account or a POP account? I'll assume it's Exchange. If it were POP the answer is obvious.
If it's an Exchange account are you deleting the messages from the phone or from some other computer? If you are deleting them from another computer they will not be removed from the Trash folder on the phone until the phone next syncs AND the Trash folder is opened. But this will take time. You can force the Trash folder to sync in near real time by going into Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars, tap on the Exchange account, tap on Mail Folders to Push and check "Deleted Items". Note that doing this will result in increased data usage and reduced battery life.
If I haven't described the situation tell me what assumptions I made that are incorrect.

Files that I bought via The 12 Days of Christmas keep being downloaded when I sync even when I've deleted them from iTunes

I downloaded some videos and music and a book via The 12 Days of Christmas.
I sync my iPhone with my Mac and have decided I don't want to keep them. So I delete them out of iTunes. Next time I sync my iPhone however, it brings them back into iTunes again.
How can I permanently deleted this content, so it doesn't keep re-appearing in iTunes each time I sync?
Thanks.

So if I understand correctly, there is no way to delete a file from iTunes that has been copied to my iPod and not have iTunes delete that file the next time I plug my iPod into the computer?
I don't really wish to keep my music library intact since it takes up too much space on my drive. Sometimes I copy podcasts to my iPod and then desire to delete it from iTunes to save space but when I plug it back in I find that iTunes deletes these podcasts from my iPod.
What happened to me recently was I had a lot of music on my iPod that I used when I went running. My iMac hard drive and logic board went kaput on me. I had to go back to my old G4 to continue working on some jobs. When I plugged my iPod into the older G4 to charge it and add some recently downloaded podcasts I find that iTunes has completely deleted my running songs since they were purchased and added on my crashed iMac. This makes no sense to me. Whatever is loaded on my iPod should stay on it until I manually delete it.
Oh well, it's not a big deal but it does seem like a flaw with the iPod/iTunes sync. I should be able to treat my iPod just like a flash drive or external drive or something. If I copy something to it, it should stay there until I delete it from the iPod.
Thanks for the information and advice anyway!

Why does deleting a photo from Photo Stream on my iPad also delete them from the album I just copied them to?

I'm working hard a mastering the details of icloud and iPhoto. I would like to have a well designed sets of pictures to carry around on the iPad, but after months it seems I'm still surprised when I open my photo app. Pictures I don't care about are there; pictures I tried to have available to show are missing. Well, I'm slowly working through it. This is not my main question today but a referral to a good info source(s) would appreciated.
So why does it happen that when I copy pictures from Photo Stream to an existing album, then go and delete them from photo stream, they pictures are deleted from the album where I thought they would be safe?
Thank you!

Pictures on Photo Stream remain there for only 30 days by design. So if you setup PS on your Mac and add photos to it they will display on the iPad. However, to remain on the iPad you will have to move them to the Camera Roll (I only have an iPhone and that's what it's called on it) in order to keep them permanently. This screenshot shows the save options on the iPhone when photos in the Photo Stream are seledted. Notice the option in the lower right hand corner:
It probably is similar on the iPad.
Or, you can put the photos in an album in iPhoto and connect the iPad to your Mac. Open iTunes and go to the iPad's Pictures section. There you can select the album in iPhoto and sync those photos to the iPad where they will be in the Camera Roll section.l
