  • I am trying to backup my Itunes onto my external hard drive. I am at the step where I on Itunes, click on File - Library - Organize library. I am suppose to check mark both boxes there, It won't allow me to check mark the second box, why? How to fix this.

    I am trying to backup my Itunes onto my external hard drive. I am at the step where I on Itunes, click on File ->Library ->Organize library. I am suppose to check mark both boxes there, the first being "Consolidate Files" & the second being "Reorganize files in the folder 'Itunes Media'. I am able to checkmark the first box but It won't allow me to check mark the second box, why? How can i fix this? Please help!

    Well you must have made a mistake somewhere. The last instruction of step four reads:
    When you've found your iTunes library folder, drag that folder to your external hard drive. This will begin the iTunes backup. The amount of time the backup will take depends on the size of your library. When the transfer is done, your backup is complete and your external hard drive can be disconnected.
    Normally dragging content from to a new location on a different drive will result in a copy action which is what you were supposed to do. At a guess you somehow managed to move the iTunes folder. Then when you started iTunes it created a new blank library for you assuming it had just been installed rather that raising a warning.
    Close iTunes. Rename the iTunes folder on the internal drive as iTunes (Empty) then copy the iTunes folder from the external back into the User's Music folder. Start iTunes. All should be well.
    When you've made sure it all works please read my User Tip and use that method to backup in future. Since you already have a folder with the backup in place you can skip the "Make New" operation in the fourth step and simply choose the external folder.

  • Mail in Mavericks is a disaster for me.  Mail opens VERY slowly and cannot be deleted. I can move copies of messages to On My Mac but the original stays in the In Box. Scrolling works then it doesn't then it does. I tried every advice here; nothing helps.

    I've read and tried all the solutions proffered to others about Mail in Mavericks and scrolling issues as well.  They either are not applicable (hard drive seems fine; is less than half full; permissions have been repaired; Disk Utility finds no hard drive issues) or don't work (rebuilding, removing envelope files and re-importing, removing various preference files).
    I have about 200,000 emails in four In Boxes.  Prior to Mavericks this was not a problem.  I have tried to remove them in case that helps but when I move them to a new folder in "On My Mac" the new folder is (very slowly) created but the original messages stay in the In Box as well.  I went through one box and deleted over 52,000 messages -- or so I thought.  When I closed mail later, I got a message saying the messages could not be moved to trash.  They are in the In Box now.
    Maybe the problem is not Mavericks, but it started when I upgraded, and except for scrolling, which has been problematic elsewhere as well but no where more than in Mail, everything but Mail seems to be working ok.
    Are other people having problems to this extent?  I can wait a little while for a fix but I get over 2,000 emails a day (yes, a lot of spam) and I don't think I can go on in perpetuity without the ability to delete messages.  I've used Apple Mail since its inception and would prefer to keep it but may be forced out.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    While logged in as Guest, launch Mail and set up one of your IMAP accounts. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Mac Mail trash folder disappeared. Deleted mail now appears in 'drafts' and Any ideas?stays in the 'in box'.

    Mac Mail trash folder disappeared. Deleted mail now appears in 'drafts' and Any ideas?stays in the 'in box'. Any one have any ideas as to why or how to fix?

    Hi k:
    That file is in your home folder ~(symbol for home)>library>preferences.
    A preference file may (rare, but it happens) become corrupted. OS X rebuilds them as needed. You will need to enter any personal preferences that differ from the default settings.
    By the by, welcome to the wonderful world of Apple computing. You will find these forums represent the best on-line community anywhere.

  • Why won't 'Transform Pattern Tiles' stay checked?

    It seems as though having this option in the Preferences unchecked is the default.  I work with pattern tiles a lot and I ALWAYS want them to scale and move etc... with the object they're applied to.  Every time I open an old file (from a previous version of AI where this option was checked) or start a new file, the option is unchecked, and I've really messed up some art when I've edited without realizing my pattern tiles aren't following along.
    How do I make this option persistant? It's driving me crazy that I always have to go in and check the damn little box before I can make any edits.
    BTW, I'm using AI CS6 through the cloud, so I should be all up to date.
    Thanks

    OK- I don't get it.  It seems to be working the way it's supposed to right now.  Since I wrote here last, I've been opening old files and opening new documents, and the box stays checked.  I've re-started Illustrator then opened old files and new documents and it's stayed checked.  I re-started my computer then started Illustrator and opened old files and new documents and the box has stayed checked.  This is how it's supposed to be- so now I can't figure out how it has gotten unchecked in the past. 
    I do mockups of my company's pajamas and use pattern tiles to represent the pattern on the pajama fabric.  The size of the pattern compared to the pajama as a whole is very important, so I NEVER deliberately turn 'Transform Pattern Tiles' off.  I ALWAYS want it on.  I've only ever checked the box to turn it back on when I've noticed that my pattern tiles aren't behaving the way they should.  I've been using CS6 since last November (older versions of Illustrator for years before that), and have had to keep checking the box time after time with this version.  And right before starting this thread I had just opened a new document, applied a  pattern tile, and noticed it wasn't behaving properly.  So I checked Preferences, and, sure enough, 'Transform Pattern Tiles' was unchecked. 
    I haven't had any other problems with Preferences- no crashes, nothing else resetting or anything that I've noticed.  Maybe there's something in my workflow that's causing it that I don't know about.  I just tried changing the Profile when opening a new document back and forth between a preset like 'Print' and 'Custom' (by changing the default Units as I sometimes do), and the box is staying checked the way it's supposed to. 
    I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I guess I'll keep checking to see if I can narrow it down. 
    Thanks for the replies.

    Sorry what is "card I bought" mean?  Are you saying that somebody sold you a card with the serial number on it without the media (CD or DVD) to install from?
    If this is so then you could download the trial version from Adobe website and use the serial number you have got on the card.  If this is not what you meant, then please post back and explain again for us to understand the problem.

  • Why won't movies save to iTunes in the Cloud any more?

    Hey-
    So I was browsing iTunes for movies, and each and every single one says that by downloading it, it won't be saved in iTunes in the Cloud.
    WHY?
    And does this mean that you can only put the movie on one device?

    I was wondering this as well.  It seems as though, all of a sudden this morning, there aren't ANY movies available in the cloud right now.  Whereas a couple days ago, pretty much EVERY movie was available in the cloud.  I'm so confused!

  • Why won't InDesign break hyphenated words at the hyphen?

    Why does InDesign not break hyphenated words at the hyphen?
    For example: "empty-handed".
    InDesign will break either "empty" or "handed" on either side of the hyphen. But not right at the hyphen, even if "empty" and "handed" are each set to No Break.
    Anyone know why?
    The hypen is typed in normally using the hyphen key on the keyboard.
    If I type a space after the hyphen, InDesign will break there, of course: "empty- handed"
    InDesign will break at an en-space: "empty–handed".
    But I prefer not to have to type a space or insert an en-space or other characters because I also need to export text to ePUB and want only the actual text.
    Correct break (if needed) at end of a line should be:
    . . . empty-
    handed . . .

    There is no reason why InDesign should avoid breaking hyphenated words at the hyphen. That's the preferred break location.
    This must be a bug.
    Evidence:
    When I turn Hyphenation OFF for a paragraph that contains a hyphenated word (such as my example, "empty-handed"), the hyphenated word is correctly broken at the hyphen (if needed at the end of a line). But when I turn hyphenation back ON, the word will not break at the hyphen.
    See the two screenshots below.
    1) Hyphenation is ON. "Empty-handed" is unbrokenat start of Line 3, yet line 2 is very loose, with room to fit "Empty-":
    2) Hyphenation is OFF. "Empty-handed" is broken at the end of line two, at the hyphen (resulting in better word spacing).
    By the way, the other settings in this Hyphenation dialog don't affect this issue. I tried changing them all, with no different result relating to the break at the hyphen.

  • Why won't my Macbook Pro stay asleep?

    Hello All,
    I am desperate and really need an answer to this question. I have tried everything and had no luck.
    I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) running Yosemite. Whenever I close the screen, it will fall asleep like it normally does. However, the external light will only pulse once (instead of continuously), and then I can hear the hard drive begin spinning again. The external light then stays at a constant, but the screen does not light back up.
    It's like the computer falls asleep, but then only the hard drive wakes up, and stays woken up. This fact causes my Macbook to eventually use up whatever battery power it has and get warm in my backpack. The only thing I can do to preserve battery power is to shut down the whole computer and boot it up every time I need it.
    I've already tried EVERYTHING found on this page: OS X: When your Mac doesn't sleep or wake - Apple Support. In addition, I have spent hours browsing other forums and help posts. Any help would be fantastic.
    Also, on a side note. My computer seems to run much slower than it did on it's native Mavericks.

    Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
    Step 1
    Take all the steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved. Note that, as stated in the article, the computer will not sleep if some sharing services are enabled.
    Step 2
    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off
    Step 3
    Select
               ▹ System Preferences ▹ Bluetooth ▹ Advanced...
    and uncheck both boxes marked
              Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup if...
    Step 4
    Disconnect all wired peripherals and test. If you use a wired keyboard and/or mouse, use different ones. You must rule out the wired keyboard and mouse as possible causes of the problem.
    Step 5
    Reset the SMC.
    Step 6
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data and reinstall the OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
    Step 7
    Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
    Step 8
    If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
    If you still have the sleep issue after restarting out of safe mode, post again.

    shared lib was around long before appletvs
    in the form of computers on the same network being able to access eachothers shared lib in itunes
    if you can do that from your macbook pro as in access the shared lib of the imac
    then the problem is with the appletv somehow
    if you also can't access the shared lib of the imac from the macbook then you setup something wrong
    or have a firewall blocking it or are not on the same network with the 2 devices
    if the later when you fix the shared lib between computers chances are if will also be fixed from the appletv

  • Why won't my Iphone 4 stay synced with my 2009 Ford Flex?, Why won't my Iphone 4 stay synced with my 2009 Ford Flex?

    I recently purchased an iphone 4 through Verizon and it will not stay synced with my 2009 Ford Flex.  I've tried rebooting the sync system with Ford, and have reinstalled the phone numerous times with no luck.
    I have to turn off the bluetooth setting on the iphone (everytime I get into the car) and turn it back on, in order for the sync to work.
    Does anyone else have this type of problem and is there a solution out there for this?
    Thanks

    I have the exact same problem. I updated my Sync software but the problem persists. According to the Ford forums this used to work until iOS version 4. It seems that Apple and Ford are in the finger pointing stage of childhood development. Let us hope they will mature soon and have a discussion on how to fix this issue. It simply CAN'T be hard to fix.
