Nov 28, 2009I was wondering exactly how the drag and drop function works. If I drag a file from the desktop to documents, I am assuming it is moved, not copied? If I drag a file from the desktop onto a flash drive, I am assuming it is copied?
Which leads me to: dragging a song from iTunes onto a folder in the desktop and then dragging that folder onto a flash drive. I am assuming the iTunes song will be in the new folder and on the flash drive? I thought there was something weird about having to have the iTunes songs in the iTunes folder?
And finally, if I decided to make an alias folder with songs (let's say it was an artist folder within all the iTunes folders and I made an alias on the desktop), and I dragged that alias folder onto a flash drive, would the flash drive's folder have the real files of the songs?

MacBook Pro :: Unable To Organize All Movies / Can't Find Settings
Jul 25, 2009A few years ago I decided to put all my DVD's in storage and rip them in divx/h264 format to an external HD that I plugged into my PS3 for easy access. The problem is that when my GF and I want to watch a movie, I have to explain each movie and we choose one based on the title without access to the movie cover or any meta data. I was wondering if there was a program akin to itunes that would go through my hard drive and (with some help with me) identify each movie and find the cover art etc. I don't know how automatic this will be. I don't mind spending some time assisting the program but I don't want to go and do it by hand.
If you find a windows software I can run it on virtualbox as well.
Hardware :: Unable To Set Up Airport Extreme AirDisk On PC (Win 7)
Dec 15, 2009The Airport Extreme has been a joy to setup and use but have made no progress on setting up a shared disk.
I just picked up an early 2009 Airport Extreme and wanted to set up the disk through the USB port. When in Airport Utility, I can see the drive connected under the "Disks" tab--but this is as far as I can get setting it up. None of my PCs can see this drive at this stage--but the Airport Extreme obviously knows there's a drive connected.
Applications :: Unable To Put Itunes Library On Airdisk
Jul 23, 2010I just finished ripping my whole cd library to apple lossless, and I want to get it off my laptop onto my airdisk (a raid 1 500gbx2 drive upstairs, attached to my airport extreme base station.) I want to be able to see my locally stored (lower bit rate aac) stuff on my laptop and be able to connect to my "big" external lossless library when I want to, since I ideally don't want to keep this huge library on my hard drive in my macbook.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHardware :: Unable To Monitor AirDisk / AEBS Traffic
Jul 20, 2009I'm planning to connect an external hard disk to an AEBS and open the right ports to allow Internet access. I plan on distributing the HDs IP address and password among some friends for a collaborative project. Is there any way for me to monitor the inbound/outbound traffic of such a situation? Perhaps even log which IP addresses do what, so I have a history of each user's actions? This sounds like something akin to an incredibly stripped down version of the Admin Tool suite available on OS X Server.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHardware :: Unable To Connect Over Internet To AirDisk Via AEBS
Aug 6, 2009I followed the guide over in the MBA Forum to forward the right ports in order to access my USB hard disk over the internet. I can access it on LAN just fine, and it all goes swimmingly until I'm asked to enter the "Private IP Address" of the device. The guide states to enter an IP address in the fashion of "192.168....", but as you might be able to tell in the picture, the first three octets of my address field are greyed out and unchangeable, and only let me enter an address in the form of "10.0....". Following the guide to the end is futile, and device connection doesn't work as advertised. Am I missing something? Is my problem clearly with entering the wrong IP, or what.

Mar 20, 2010When I boot up my mac the volume settings are not preserved. The volume is always set to 50% of the max volume when I boot up. I've run repair permissions and Onyx, but this did fix anything. Is it time to reinstall Snow Leopard? I am hoping my time machine backup doesn't remember these obscure settings or problem files.

Mac Mini :: Can't Find DNS Settings On It
Feb 26, 2012Here's what I've tried:
System Preferences > Network > Show: Airport
Click on TCP/IP button
I see the box for DNS server info, but it's blank.
I want to know which DNS server(s) my computer is hooking up to to determine whether it's infected with a certain malware. (See [url]...) It sounds outlandish, I'm only concerned because my roommate's computer is infected and we share a wireless network, which can also apparently be compromised.

View 20 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Unable To Shutdown Properly Or Sleep?
Jan 17, 2010I go to shut it down from the apple menu, it attempts to go through all the stages needed for a shut down, the screen goes black like normal, and then it restarts again (so, while, it nearly gets to the end of shut down, it never quite makes it, and starts up again!) The same thing happens when I decide to restart - there is no pause between shutting down and restarting, indicating that it does nor restart at all.
It does not sleep either. I put the lid down and everything is still going inside the laptop!
I hope that's a good enough explanation of what's happening!
The only way I can shut the computer down is by pressing the power button in the top right hand corner of my macbook - forcing a shut down.
I've tried resetting the PRAM and repairing disk utility but it has done absolutely nothing.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Unable To Perform A Reboot / Shutdown From The OS.
Jul 2, 2012I've had my original MBP since 2007, which was originally on 10.4 I believe. I've done upgrades up to the current 10.7.4. My original MBP was encountering end-of-life hardware issues, so earlier this year ago I purchased a new MBP. I used the Migration Assistant utility to move my files and user settings.My older MBP toward the end of its life was having OS shutdown / reboot problems. The OS would never completely shut down. It would go to a light gray screen, and the twirling icon in the middle never went away. A manual shut down from the power button was the only recourse.It seems that the problem is tied to issue(s) with my user account settings, since the problem is still present, despite newer hardware.
After I do a manual shutdown/restart, I can immediately perform an OS reboot just fine. But after the OS has been running for hours/days, I can't run a clean shutdown/restart.I'm 100% confident that this is not a hardware issue. I'm comfortable with reviewing my system.log in Console and issuing Terminal commands, if that will help with any troubleshooting.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOS X :: SwitchResX / Can't Find Files And Settings To Modify It
May 5, 2009I had a problem with my iMac in that the second monitor kept flickering black every few seconds. After much pulling out of hair, I managed to sort it by using SwitchResX, creating a new resolution with a slightly different refresh rate.
Well, I've now reinstalled Leopard, and I'm not sure what files SwitchResX modified. I have a mountable backup image of the old installation and I just need to know what files to copy across.
I've copied over Users/Me/Library/Preferences/ByHost/(URL).6881753F-E268-5D65-B162-DE4A346FC4E3.plist
and
I *think* one other one (I cant remember which .plist file it was).
Rebooted and I still have the problem, so I assume I've missed the correct file....
I dont know what settings I used either so can't redo it.
