Hi Ronni As explained, I keep special movies in the iTunesU category. This is a parallel level to Movies (or TV Shows) categories. It works well- when properly tagged.The problem is how to REMOVE them from the unnamed iTunesU collection as they don't display in iTunes or Finder. I

Mail in Snow Leopard

2012-04-25 Thread Severin Crisp
My wife's MacBook is running Snow Leopard. When Mail opens it has the annoying habit of always selecting a particular item in the Inbox, wherever it might have been when closed or shut down. The logical thing would be to select the most recently viewed email. I can find no setting for this.

Dear Walter, My accountant told me I had to have Windows for MYOB so I ran it on Windows XP using Parallels Desktop. I now understand that if you send your accountant the data off your Mac it should be read by their copy of MYOB. Kind regards, Bob On 24/04/2012, at 3:32 PM, F.W. Hänel

Hi Ronni This summarises the problem and action taken. iTunes should have pointers to two movies in an external drive plus a full copy of a third movie in the iTunesU library. These movies could not be located in the iTunes app because I tagged them incorrectly. They display in the Apple

Hi Alan, I never recommend messing with the iTunes or iPhoto Library files. Both iTunes and iPhoto applications if left to do the job they are designed to do you won't experience problems. Just to make sure you are clear what the iTunes Library files you are thinking of restoring are. Files
