  • Using iPhoto 09, 8.1.2 How do I re-route saving pictures to the hard drive? Currently am saving to files on 'my' partition, and would like to change to save to a shared file so both partitions can view and access.

    Drag the Library from the Pictures folder to the Users/Shared folder. I would point out that folks doing this on 10.6 and later frequently meet permissions issues. You might do better moving it to an appropriately formatted External Disk.

  • My iphone 5 using other account, now i would like to change another apple ID. May i know how to change it?

    sir,
    im using iphone 5 & using other apple ID, but now, i would like to change another apple ID on my phone. may i know, how to change it & what is the procedure?

    Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores.  Tap on the Apple ID, choose to sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID.
    Go to Settings > iCloud.  Do the same thing there.... Or, I think you may have to 'Delete Account', but choose to keep the data on the phone.

    You could always remove/disable the Persona that you don't want. Go to Add-ons > Appearance, and then just disable/remove the offending Persona.
    Though, if you really want to save your bookmarks:
    Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Which will open the Library > Look for Import and Backup > Backup...> and it will prompt to you save the file somewhere. To add them back into Firefox, go back to the library > Import and Backup again > Restore > Choose File... > and then open the file you saved earlier.

  • How do I revert back to Snow Leopard from OS Lion without losing files etc

    I need to revert back as my work VPN cannot operate with the java cocoa version that is part of safari due to the OS Lion upgrade I performed.  I have done a ton of work on my system in the last week and don't want to lose any of it - and no I didn't use time machine.  HOw much am I going to lose when I uninstall Lion and then reinstall Leopard?
    Thank so much for your help,
    cmw

    First, do a full backup of your current system.
    Reformat your hard drive's main partition that you want to revert to Snow Leopard from Lion. This will delete EVERYTHING on the partition, which is why you need to do the backup first.
    Reinstall Snow Leopard from the installer media you own.
    Download then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Combo Updater.
    Run Software Update repeatedly until there are no updates left to install.
    Reinstall all your third-party applications.
    Connect the backup you made of the Lion system and copy over your data. You should only have to copy over the files you know about within your own user account folder.
    If you do this right, you'll have everything back in Snow Leopard with no loss. If you do it wrong, well, that's another reason we made a backup all the way back in the beginning of this process - you can always start over.

  • Would Like to Change "appleuser" to my name but don't know how. Help?

    Hi,
    For starters, I have a late 2009 Macbook (white) and am running Mountain Lion (10.8.2). Anyway, I purchased this computer off of someone else and I would like to change what I assume is the home directory (little house logo) from "appleuser" to my name. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find anything online that is helpful to me. I saw one thing that talked about changing the root login or something like that, but I couldn't even find it when following the steps that were given.
    Anyway, like I said I bought the computer off of someone else and seeing the "appleuser" drives me insane so I'd like to change it. Anybody know how?

    Open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, create a new user account, and log in with it; alternatively, after unlocking the pane, control-click that account, choose Advanced Options, and change it there.

  • I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

    I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

    Thanks Gary, but no, that does not work. First of all, I can't select each bar individually. When I click on one bar, all three bars are selected.
    When I use "inspector > graphic" I have 5 fill options: none, color, gradient, image, tinted image. The default selection for the theme I'm using is image. What I would like to use for my charts is the same image that this theme uses for table headers. It has the same texture as the chart, but a different colour. Using anything but image or tinted image removes the texture from the fill.
    I have found I can do one of two things. I can select tinted image from the fill selections in "inspector > graphic" or I can select 2D Image Fills from "inspector > chart > chart colors". The first choice does not allow me to match the table header colour because it only allows me to apply a tint to the existing colour and adjust its opacity. The existing colour has too much influence on the fill, so I can't find an RGB adjustment that will match the table header colour. The image selections from "inspector > chart > chart colors" do not quite match the colour or the texture. Again, I can try to tint the image, but I still can't get it to match and the texture is not the same anyway.
    The image I want to use obviously exists in the software as it is an attribute of the theme, but for some reason is inaccessible. The other angle I have tried is to edit the theme, but I can't figure out how to do that either.

    Is there anyway of creatiing a different name for this Folder rather than 2013?
    If you are using one of Lightroom's "date-based" folder templates, then the folders are created in accordance with the image capture date, not the date that you happen to import it. If you specifically want to use the import date for your folder names then you probably don't want to use the Lightroom date template, and instead you'll need to setup your folder names manually.
    The vast majority of users that use date-based folder naming schemes will use a standard Lightroom template, i.e. based on the much more meaningful image capture date.

    I would like to change the owners name on my ipad2 to my daughters name and credit. Could someone help me figure this out?

    Sign out from Find My Phone in iCloud, and sign out from your Apple ID in Settings/iTunes & App Store
    Then setup as a new phone with iTunes and when your Daughter sets it up for the first time she can add or set up her own Apple ID.
    Cheers

  • Would like to change user name

    I would like to change my user name for the "Apple Support Communities".
    I don't see how this can be done form the info I see on the webSite.
    Does anyone know how to accomplish this.
    Thank you,

    You cannot...
    You may, however, set up a new account.  The old one will slowly fade to the archives.

  • I would like to change the spacing between the words for the product names, they look double spaced at present.

    A simple question I think, I would like to change the spacing between the words for the product names, they look double spaced at present. On the home page, and product pages. Not sure where to change this in the css here is the site; http://top10shop.businesscatalyst.com

    That site is using an old font technology called cufon, it uses canvas to draw the text into the font you want. Not really good for modern websites.
    It is what the font was and how it was made. I never used Cufon but the documentation is here - Usage · sorccu/cufon Wiki · GitHub At a glance there are no render options for the double spacing so I am guessing it was how the font was generated.
    I would scrap all of that completely tbh.
