I have a g3 slot loading Imac, which I am reusing as a computer for a family member who is visually impaired. I have bought a 22" monitor that can display a resolution of 1680x1050. but I can not display more than 1024x768. Another problem is that I can't get it just to display on the external monitor, it uses both monitors with identical pictures.

I have two identical external firewire "archive" hard drives. One serves as a safety copy of important data and the other serves as a safety of the safety. Both drives are identical models of identical size purchased at the same time, installed in identical enclosures, formatted the same way and when originally formatted showed an identical amount of available space on each drive. When archiving is needed, important data is copied to both drives. So after the double copying of data, they have the exact same material. They are now about 1/2 full with supposed identical files.
However, in the finder one drive shows about 3 gigs worth of available space more than the other. I have used a couple of utilities (such as Toast's compare utility and Disk Warrior) to compare the drives and see what is causing the discrepancy. While they do have the most minor differences in some hidden files, the difference is only a few megabytes and nowhere near the 3 gig discrepancy.
Any thoughts on why there is such a big difference in finder's calculation?

I have Lion I have Aperture 3.
I set the desktop background picture to photos on Aperture through right mouse clicking to "change destop background".
All the photos fhrough Aperture are present. I click the photo and it changes. I also use the screen saver using aperture photos. All of these photos are on an external drive and has been working flawlessly with Lion on my older imac.
Last week I bought a new imac with Lion. Everything is working the same as above except for when I shut down the imac. When I boot it back up, the mac supplied image of the milky way appears and the photo I had on the desktop prior to shutting down has been replaced by this.
The external is mounted and the screen saver after 5 minutes will show my Aperture photos....it is just the desktop photo that has been replaced..

I have a pic in Address Book and I want to change it but I want to save the old one someplace. How would I do this? Or can't I?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI logged into my macbook pro the other day and I noticed that my picture was blank (by blank I mean that silhouette icon that you have with new accounts). So i opened my addressbook and reset my picture. A few minutes later, I noticed that my profile picture was reset to blank again so I changed it again and waited. Right before my eyes, the picture changed back to the silhouette again.

I have 2 WD Caviar Black drives that are installed in my Mac Pro. Both show the exact same part number in Disk Utility, both are less than half full, both verify fine with Disk Utility. However one shows 125-130 MB/s RW with AJA and the other only delivers 90 MB/s. What gives? Just a sub-standard drive? THey are in adjacent bays in the MP, used as is - nothing changed. They are OEM drives thru Amazon from a few months ago. Both were erased and formatted prior to putting them in the MP a few weeks ago.

I should be getting my iMac in the next few days and more than likely going to get the 24" ACD, so I can dual display it. I know there is a difference in height, so going to VESA wall mount the ACD. I know the 24" ACD is LED and a slightly different screen to the iMac, the question I have his will I be able to get the screens to look pretty much identical i.e. brightness, colours or will I have to get something to calibrate the screens?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have two MacBook Pros running 10.7.4. I wanted to copy one iPhoto library from one device to the other using a new Thunderbolt cable. The file is approximately 60GB. When I copy a small file of 1.0 to 2.0 BG in size, the transfer is incredibly fast -- as in seconds.
When I try to transfer the large file (60GB), the transfer is very slow, and Finder says it will take 12 hours. Oh, and I am not running any anti-virus software.

I have a curious question: Does Apple Mail filter identical mails?
More precisely, I am expecting a number of mails that are identical, except they arrive from different mailing lists.
However, I can only see one of them.
So, I was wondering whether Apple mail has some "intelligence" built in that would filter out the others.

Why do they both exist? My best guess is just that they switched to iTunes Library but maintain an identical iTunes Music Library file for now for compatibility (since the XML files exist so 3rd party apps can access the iTunes library).

View 2 Replies View RelatedRule #4 of the AppleID password restrictions states "Not contain more than 3 consecutive identical characters" -Your rule is actually "Not contain 3 or more consecutive identical characters". "more than 3" would allow 3 consecutive characters, but it turns red ( invalid ) if this is attempted. Also, rule #1 states "Have at least one letter", which in standard English would include Upper and Lower case letters, but Apple's rule requires it to be "Have at least one lower case letter", while rule #2 "Have at least one capital letter" does correctly specify requiring at least one upper case.
