Yes, you can observe the process within the lcd section of the itunes window.
The lcd section is to the left of the search field. If you interact with it,
you can find all sorts of info there, including the stage your sincing is at.

Since upgrading to Yosemite, I don't seem to be able to use Google Chrome. It

I can read, write, send, reply to, and save email now. I just have to read

Hi,
I have an external hard drive that I’d like to read and write to on both Mac
and Windows.
I found an oldish article (from 2012) suggesting that I could use either NTFS
software on Mac or HFS+ software on Windows to accomplish this, rather than
dealing with the drawbacks of using FAT32.
Why is torrent running?
If it's meant to be, then don't shut it down; if it isn't meant to be, we

Hi all,
Just a minor but annoying observation with Mail under Yosemite.
I use the preview pain to read messages. What I do is first select the message
in the messages table, then press vo-j to interact with the message text.
Trouble is, I cannot always read the text using standalone arrow keys;
I would go the fat32 route. The only restriction there is you can’t have files
larger than 4 GB, and the only time you would have that is if you have large
video files. This way you are not installing extra software just to use a drive.

If you use iCloud to sync your contacts, then you need only enter things on one
device. Since all contacts sync, creating two different entries for one person,
one entry on each of two devices, will give you a duplicate since both are
pushed to all your devices. You can just make entries on

I agree with David. Sometimes vo j doesn't work, but restarting mail or voice
