Applications :: How To Keep Application While Changing Os X?

Dec 27, 2010

Anyway, I just recieved MBA 11' as a xmas gift. i liked its applications (ie garage band, ical, dashboard etc.) but because i have been using Windows (XP,vista and windows 7 at the moment) ever since i had my first pc, i am not really comfortable on navigating my way through this laptop.

question: i know i can change my os, but by doing so, will i lose those applications mentioned? and if i will, can i ever get them back (but with windows still installed)? also, is there any way to marge the two and get the best of both worlds (windows os + MBA applications)?

Software :: Changing Application Directory Location?

Oct 11, 2009

I'm fairly new to the Mac OS, having just bought my first mac not too terribly long ago. I have it installed on a 20-GB hard disk, and have run out of room. I'm wanting to migrate my Applications directory off of the root of my primary drive and onto my second 320 GB drive.

I dont know if this is possible, but I thought I'd ask.

OS X :: Changing Application Folder Icon In Snow Leopard

Sep 13, 2009

I installed SL on my iMac last week and changed the icon for the applications folder on my dock - no problem. Did the same for my Macbook last night and now the applications folder on both docks keeps disappearing. I use Mobile Me to sync the docks. I've dragged the folder from Finder into the dock and it stays briefly and then disappears.

OS X :: Enlarge Application Menus Without Changing Display Resolution?

Jan 3, 2010

I recently purchased a 27" iMac running 10.6.2 and have installed CS4 only to find that the application toolbars/palettes are really small at the default 2560 x 1440 display resolution.

If I decrease the display to 1920 x 1200, my application toolbars/palettes are legible and a comfortable size to use, but then
the screen is not crisp and nice as the 2560 x 1440....and frankly not pleasant to create graphics in.

Is there any workarounds or solutions to this either through the Mac OS or individually through the Adobe Apps?

Applications :: Changing Dock/Indicator?

Jan 23, 2009

Ok, sorry all if this has been asked. I did a search and didn't find an answer that made sense to me.

So basically, I saw the attached image in the January desktop forum, and would love to have the same dock indicator lights. I have the link to download the file(s) for the indicator lights, but after downloading I have no idea how to install them.

Applications :: Changing From POP To IMAP Mail?

Mar 30, 2009

It seems I have to change from using POP to IMAP but I'm not quite sure how.

I use Mail.app on my macbook. I have about 4 different email accounts, (2 for different employers, 1 for freelance work, and 1 personal) plus I'm in a couple of high traffic newsgroups.

All gets downloaded to Mail.app via POP access.

The newsgroup and junk emails get filtered out into their respective folders.

Other mail is filtered into other folders. Some gets to my inbox.

I want the non-newsgroup / junk mail to auto-sync with my iphone.

That means :

Appearing in the same folder in my iPhone and on my laptop

Reading mail on one device will mark it as read on the other.

Email sent from one device will appear in the sent folder on the other.

So it seems I need to change from POP to iMAP, but I'm not quite sure how to set it all up to deal with my 4 accounts and various folders. In Mail.app I have about 30 rules for filtering.

Do i need 4 different IMAP accounts?

Applications :: Pop Up When Changing Songs In ITunes?

Jun 1, 2009

A couple of months ago, my iTunes inexplicably started popping up a small window with track info whenever the song changed.

I've searched the web and these forums and have been unable to find a way to disable this, or even see any record that it exists outside of my machine.

P.S. It's the thing in the middle of the picture.

Applications :: Changing Numbers To Hours?

Apr 15, 2010

When I format a cell as time (13:30), why does it go to 00:00 when i enter "2." I want it to go to 2:00, but the only way to do it is enter the colon myself... there must be a way to enter "2" and have the cell show "2:00."

I am trying to compare an estimated time to actual time. The problem is my estimate is 4-5 hours. How can I make 4-5 hours show up(in number format) in one cell... is that even possible or do I need to make two cells, one for min time and one for max time?

Applications :: ITunes - Changing From Movies To TV Shows?

Aug 26, 2010

With the new iTunes 9.2.1(5), I seem to have trouble sorting some of my video files. Every video file (converted from .avi to .mp4 with Handbrake, using the "Universal Apple" preset) I throw at iTunes seem to be added to the Movies section. I tried updating the metadata from Get Info, filling out the Video tab with appropriate names, season number, episode number and episode ID. That didn't get anywhere. I tried putting "TV Shows" as a genre but that doesn't do anything either. I even tried making a new folder in the iTunes folder, naming it "TV Shows" and throwing videos in there.

I have tried via preferences to change the standard color in which I type my

Although via preferences I succeeded in changing font size from 12 to 14, the color won't change from black to blue or any other color

Is it in anyway possible to set mail that spacing between two lines are for example 2 lines or 1,5 ?

Applications :: GarageBand 5 Freezes On Changing Settings

Feb 22, 2009

I've just installed the whole iLife 09 package on a MacBook Pro 2.4 Ghz, 2 Gb RAM, 200 Gb disk (with 112 free Gb), and I have an issue I can't figure out how to fix it. Every time I try to change the "project settings", the program freezes and most of the times I have to shut it down using "alt+command+esc". It makes me feel like using a darn PC. It's the same if I try to acceed to the settings by clicking on the "LCD display" or by pressing "ctrl+command+F". The program just freezes without even letting me see the project settings (Tempo, Key, etc.). And I think that my computer settings shouldn't be a problem. A friend of mine had just the same trouble with a MacBook Pro just like mine. Meanwhile, I've been using GarageBand with a white MacBook with 1,83 Ghz and I've always used this feature without any problem!

Applications :: ITunes Library Changing Location By Itself?

Oct 30, 2009

I have a strange problem at least to me. Recently I moved my iTunes library to an external drive and all went fine. I used the consolidation tool to achieve the task and all went just fine. Since doing this every time I open iTunes the location of the library has changed back to my local drive.

For example...

I set it to: volumesmediaiTunes Media

and it is automatically changed to: usersmemusiciTunesiTunes Media

Applications :: Artifacts In Videos When Changing Scenes Using VLC?

Apr 19, 2010

I've got a bunch of 1080p videos in MKV. When I play them using VLC and switch the video to a different scene (say 20 minutes ahead), artifacts appear throughout the video for a few seconds and then it disappears. I have this on about half of my MKV 1080p Videos. Is this normal? This only occurs when I manually switch to a different scene. If I play the video straight through then it plays fine. This occurs on both my Mac Pro and Windows Vista Computer. Are my videos corrupt? I don't notice this on my Mac Pro when using Movist when switching scenes.

Applications :: Changing The Default Screenshot Location?

Jul 19, 2010

I used to have it so that whenever I take a screenshot it would go to a folder of my choice. But I have recently put a new hard drive in my MacBook and thus have a new Leopard install and do not remember how I originally set this up because it was such a long time ago.

Does anyone know what Terminal command or something that will let me make my screenshots go to something like User/Tyler/Pictures/Screenshots?
