In Settings->Keyboard->Text it is possible to add/delete replacement texts; e.g. 'omw' comes as a default to replace 'on my way'. A Swedish language default is replacing 'mvh' with 'med vänlig hälsning'. I prefer not using these and have thus deleted both of them. Repeatedly deleted them that is since these defaults keep returning a day or so after I have deleted them.
I'm using Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on a MacBook Air 13'' that was purchased in Oct 2014. Â
I just downloaded OS X yosemite on my iMac. Right away I began getting texts on my computer from now just my cell phone but texts that are going on between my daughter and her friends. I can't figure out how to delete her number from my iMac message feature so I won't get her texts as well.Â
I am trying to link my text messaging to my Macbook but i can't find where the code is on my computer. Where is the code located so i can type it in to my phone?
I'm using Classic Layout in Mail.app - in the message list the column "Flag" shows all flags/labels as text, i.e. instead of an orange flag icon it shows "Orange". This is rather strange and uses too much space in the list - is there a way to change to icon view? In Mavericks it shows a coloured flag icon.Â
I tried to find a menu command or Mail.app preference to change this, but couldn't find one. Not sure but I think in OS X 10.10.0 Mail.app showed flag icons; I have OS X 10.10.1 installed.

There is no provision for changing the color, but you can change the size and font, and you can put lines through or under the text.,etc. You can do none of that with MAIL..Do I have to start using another E-mail program?
my txt messages sent from my mac is going to another country. the two numbers in my messaging app (left or bottom)are the same person with same number,(which is why i showed it in contacts app) but somehow i get my message through a different tab (without+86) when i receive and if i reply to that nameless tab, my message goes to US (it automatically adds 00s behind the number).Â
Ever since upgrading to Yosemite OS X on my MacBook pro, I've been unable to view pictures that I send or receive via SMS Text and iMessage on my phone, and receive via AIM, within iMessage on my computer.Â
All images show up as their file name only, and cannot be viewed or downloaded (see attached screen shots.)Â
I can view the images fine on my phone, just not on the computer. I've played around with iMessage settings and nothing seems to work.Â
I was on photo booth when i accidentally erased an important video. Is there anyway that I can get it back without having to pay anything? I've looked in my trash but I can't find anything.
My problem is related to the iMessage app on my iPhone 5 and MBP Retina. I have not been able to find a suitable answer to this problem in the Apple discussions, however there are discussions relating to syncing of messages, or the lack thereof, but that's not my problem. My problem has to do with deleting messages from one device and then those message being deleted on the other device.Â
Both devices, iPhone 5 and 15" MBP Retina are up to date (iOS 8.1.1 and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1).Â
I can send and receive iMessage and SMS texts from both my iPhone as well as the Mac. The synchronization works beautifully!Â
My problem is this. When I delete a conversation from the message app on the MBP it DOES NOT get deleted on the iPhone iMessage app. Likewise a conversation that is deleted from the iPhone DOES NOT get deleted from the MBP message app. I have tested this by sending a message to myself, which showed up on both devices. I could converse all day long with myself (bad habit!) from both the iPhone and MBP, but when the message was deleted from one device it did not get deleted from the other device. Very annoying!Â
As an additional issue, under Settings>Messages>Text Message Forwarding my MBP appears twice and only one can be turned on at a time. How can I delete the other device? I can't find where that is set up.Â

I accidentally deleted an important Numbers file on my iPhone from iCloud, and desperately need it back. I've tried using my Time Machine to reclaim it but as soon as i select Cloud Drive, Numbers folder, or user/Library/Mobile Documents i can't go back to any previous backups, my timeline tabs all show up in red. Â
How do I stop/turn-off having all my text messages or phone calls popping up on my laptop? ... Without affecting my iCloud backups, connections, calendar, contacts etc.

1. System prints PDF files very slowly, about 50 seconds per page, a text only page. Sometimes will just continue sending data to printer as indicated by flashing green light on printer – does not stop sending and printer does not print. Problem also present when try to print PDF files as sent by others over internet (eg TD Bank statements).
2. Unable to cause double sided printing using IMac – no problem with PC.
Trouble shooting:Took the same one page text only file that was very slow in IMac, transferred to PC using a memory stick – connected printer to PC using same USB cable – page starts printing in about 1 seconds – no problems.No difficulty in printing Word files other than no double sided. Think the problems started with OSX Yosemite upgrade and the companion Safari upgrade. Auto update for software is on and no new updates. Old drivers removed and new one installed Tried Apple internet chat to resolve problem – was unable – the user forum indicates others have had difficulties with printing PDF files.

There have been a couple of discussions about third party retailer returns on bto iMacs and I was wanting to clear it up. I would like to get an i7 at macmall and use the $150 discount. I believe I still have to pay tax in il though. Anyways, if I get it and tere are a couple dead pixels next to each other in the center, I just have to send it into apple and have them repair it under the one year warranty right? The bad part about macmall is that I can't just exchange it out for a new one
When I awaken my G5 in the morning (when its chilly) it goes back to sleep almost immediately. This may repeat twice before it finally stays on. I initially thought it was my HD, a new purchase at the time. However, I have switched to another internal drive and have been experiencing identical results. I've run TechTool Pro, Onyx, Applejack, and Disk Utility, thinking it was a HD issue, but having switched drives, I'm thinking it must be a hardware issue of some sort.

I've been waiting for these Arrandale 15" MBPs since December '09, and in my excitement and haste I didn't assess all the options when I ordered my new laptop.I ordered the base 15" model with no changes to it, but I really need the high-res screen. 3 questions for you lovely people:1) Once I get the laptop, I could return it and change it for a one with the hi-res screen. How long does it usually take to return a Macbook Pro and get a new one back again?
2) If, once I recieve the laptop, I drove to my nearest Apple Store (about 60 miles away- I'm in UK), could I simply hand them my unopened laptop and ask for an exchange for one with a hi-res screen?
3) I noticed a hi-res, anti-glare option. Does anybody know if the anti-glare option still has that ugly grey surroun
You would normally have to fill out a returns form when you send things back to stores.Just wondering why there was nothing for me to fill out as they won't know what it is when they receive it as they won't know my return i.d.does anyone know if there was supposed to be one inside? or if I need to request one from somwhere? or do i not need to do anything but send it?
Screen will go completely black for a second then back to normal display.Makes no difference what application I'm using. Within last 10 minutes went black for 4 times. Does not power down, just screen goes black.Contacted support via phone, they had me shut down, unplug power cord, then plug in and start. Appeared ok while I was on phone with support.Didn't use imac for 1 1/2 hours, now I notice it going black again.
Every time I search for a song in iTunes, then close the search by hitting the "x" in the search bar, iTunes returns me to the top of my iTunes library (the A's), instead of staying on the song I've searched for and selected. It's incredibly annoying, and has been happening to my iTunes for a few years (but didn't in early versions of the software). Does anyone else have this problem? Is it a bug, or just a bad design? If so, is there a way to stop it?
When I run the mdls command on a ringtone file to fetch its duration, the output is always null. For e.g running
mdls -raw -name kMDItemDurationSeconds SomeTone.m4r  on the terminal returns (null) as the output. When I check the info for the ringtone in iTunes, I see that it's 14s long. Same issue when I try to fetch the total bitrate for the ringtone using mdls. It also returns null. Why does mdls fail ?
In the past week my volume suddenly gets 50% to 70% louder and after a few moments it returns to the original sound. This happens two or three time in an hour.
