So I've loaded some pics on my MPB. When I go to view my pics, I use iPhoto. Now, if I go to delete a pic on iPhoto, will the photo be deleted completely or only deleted from iPhoto? Do I have to find the picture on my hard drive and delete it from there as well?

Is there a way to get pictures that are part of the library on my iphone on to my macbook. I find it completely unbelievable that Apple has purposely made it impossible to be able to get 4 YEARS OF PICTURES off my Iphone and back onto my computer.

Messages keeps switching the conversation view from "Show Names and Pictures" to just "Show Pictures". This is in the menu under: View > Messages > Show Names and Pictures. I have to change it multiple times a day, including every time I open the app from a closed state.
This is very confusing in group iMessage conversations where all the iMessages are coming from the same grey silhouette icon. The issue is only happening on my Mac mini. It's not happening on my MacBook Air. Both are running Mavericks 10.9.3...So I keep changing the setting here, but it somehow just switches back to Show Pictures only:
I can't close system preferences and it won't do anything else. Did i do something wrong or is it normal?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just restored my system early this evening with Time Machine. After doing some stuff tried to run a back up and noticed that it was deleting far more backups than necessary:It seems like it thinks it has to backup the whole drive, and so is deleting everything to make up the space. At best I've copied a few GB over from another drive. Either way, it's strange that is requested 308.08 GB given that my iMac HD only has 264 GB of stuff. This Apple article seems to confirm this:[URL]Is there any way to just do an incremental backup? I don't want to loose my (remaining) previous backups is possible?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a problem I can't see has been addressed anywhere else. If I've missed a thread, please someone guide me to it.I have mac mail. I also have an ususual situation in that I am an adult webmaster. I often get emails with words (not four letter words, but, for example, the word "spanking") in the subject line.These emails can be from peole who are in my address book. I also will get mail from friends who are writing me from their own websites, for example [URL]I have tested this from a gmail account. An email will come into my mac.com account. I can see it up on the server. Within minutes, my mail program on my home machine checks for new mail. Not only does the "offending" email not download, but it is then DELETED from I have checked every setting in Mail, and cannot see anything that would be causing this. I have turned off junk mail filtering completely, for example. The only conclusion I can come to is that my ISP had decided for me that I don't want the mail, and is not only preventing me from receiving it on my computer (bad enough), but is telling mac.com to delete it.
I am extremely frustrated by this. I fear confronting my isp because to do so I would need to admit that I am running adult websites from my home, something that no doubt is against the TOS (though of course they are not hosted at my house.) I don't want to be forced to use web based mail exclusively . I like Mail and want to continue using it, but I am not getting mail from my writers and contributors, and not getting customer services queries.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my 500GB external hard drive I have a 200GB partition where all my Time Machine backups go.
The situation is: I have some backup folders from when I first started to use TM, then I have some backup folders from when I was using TM with my SSD (fresh install, different backup), then I have some folders from when I switched back from my SSD to my 5400RPM drive (again, fresh install, didn't restore).
I wanted to check out SuperDuper, so I need to go through the backup folders and delete the junk (Applications folders, etc.), keeping the important stuff (most of which isn't on this drive, since I did not do a restore).
Unfortunately, it tells me "The operation can't be completed because backup items can't be modified." Does anyone know how to force delete these without reformatting the partition (last resort)? I found a possible solution that involves opening TM, browsing to the folder, hitting the Actions gear and clicking Delete This Backup or something, but that option isn't in the list. I am only able to pick "Delete All Backups of xxx".

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've just setup a Raid 0 with 3 drives (WD R3 320GB x 3) in Disk Utility.
The problem I have - I'm not sure if it's normal or not - is :
When I want to delete a file I've got the dialog box saying "The Item 'XX' will be deleted immediately. Are you sure you want to continue?".
Is this a normal behaviour of a Raid 0 ?
I was expecting that my file goes in the trash (like on a normal drive).
Can someone tell me if "the delete immediately" is a normal behaviour ?
I'm trying to switch from 10.4 to 10.5 - my god, the Finder has become even weirder here. Whenever I want to delete a file from a file server (that sits on a Linux machine and is mounted with smb) I get the message "The item XXX will be deleted immediately. Are you sure you want to continue?". This happens even with my own files. This as such is not the problem, has been like that all the time.
The annoying problem is that now (with 10.5) the default is "Cancel" while it was before (with 10.4) "Delete". This mean that I have to use the mouse to delete instead of just hitting Enter another time. I hate that! Is there a way (or utility perhaps) to change the default to "Delete"? I would not mind to dig into the System for that, I just don't know how to do it.
I just recently got parallels, and someone else set it up for me. The guy only put 8gb on it, and i really need more.

So my Mac Pro crashed after I installed and used an application (MacTheRipper) which enabled me to rip videos off of DVDs. I was then using Final Cut Pro and Live Type after for my video project when my Mac continued to crash and soon it won't load anything past the blue screen of death. I attempted to boot up my system in safe mode, but still nothing. And after going through it in single user mode, I still have no luck. At the current moment it seems that my OS has decided to restart itself and now I am in the current process of resetting up my mac. But it's way too slow (taking about an hour or more to load up each panel). So I was wondering if it's possible to delete an application when your Mac has crashed? If so, how?
