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.11/15/10

The MacMost videos relating to GarageBand have been very helpful.
But I’m wondering if there is a bigger and more comprehensive source to help me better understand how to use and create loops for my iMovie projects.

I’d like to delete some books off my computer, but back them up on an external hard drive for future use. Is there a way to do this so that I can have the option to order them in the future through Apple? Is it just a matter of saving it as a PDF, and if so, how would one ... (3 Comments)

What does this mean?

I made my agenda for what was supposed to be 2011 but made it for 2012. Is there any way I can change the year without having to re enter every item? I had only filled in Sundays. Thanks.

I have a fair amount of programming background (FORTRAN, APL, BASIC and Pascal) but I haven’t done any pc programming since replacing my Apple IIGS with a Mac. How do I go about learning to program on the Mac? (assuming that’s possible?)

Hi Gary,
I have an HP PC that is older than time. It is wireless and on all the time for use. If I connect it wirelessly to my Apple TV, can the ATV read media off the external HD on the PC if that is where the iTunes is directed?

Every time I go to download updates for apps in iTunes, I get a message saying that the information on the page is outdated, even though I just clicked the “check for updates” button. Why is it doing this and how do I get it to stop?
