The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.3/6/11
I have an idea for an ios app and would like to find information on how to get it done. Unfortunately I have no programming experience so I would have to hire someone to program it also. Can you recommend any good books or web sites as a guide?

While doing so, I came across a couple of Apple Scripts to be run in Terminal to overcome this issue.

Every time I try to move my Itunes collection to a backup, the operation gets part of the way and then just stops due to some error message about one of the files. Is there a way to force Mac to just move the files while going past the occasional error?

So I have come across many answers on the internet saying that Mac does an excellent job at managing memory usage, but I have found out that this is not the case with my Mac. Many times, my computer freezes and requires a hard shut down when I am using Itunes and Safari because ... (2 Comments)

is there a way to name Scanned files in Image capture in a sequential way ?
For example I need the File name to be AN01-01A, AN01-02A,AN01-03A & so on.
Is this possible to do automatically without typing the Filename that is quite time consuming ?

Some on twitter say the xoom is far better and as an Os it is android is better. I hate to believe that.

I bought my macbook in 2009 and sometimes when I open up iMovie it suggests I upgrade to iLife 11, so I clicked on the link recently and it says I can upgrade to iLife 11 for $6.99 but only if I bought my computer on or after Oct, 20 2010. But I remember seeing this upgrade popup ... (1 Comment)

First, sorry if I’ve been a Forum hog of late. New Apple product seems to generate a lot of questions!
Next, followed along with some video and discussions here on MacMost about leaving one’s MacBook, iMac, etc. in Sleep instead of cycling on and off.
I’ve been ... (2 Comments)

I want to use my MacBook Air as the display for what I’m recording with my Canon camcorder and need to know which adapter I need. I think it’s a micro-DVI, but to…? May have to go to the Apple store to resolve this correctly.

I am thinking of using a Buffalo Technology Linkstation Quad as my Time Machine drive. Safety-wise of my data, what’s better RAID 10 or RAID 5? Also what do you think of Buffalo equipment?
If the software or hardware controllers in the Buffalo enclosure were to go bad would ... (9 Comments)
