    My Contacts Disappeared:

    Thanks Diablo, How familiar are you with iCloud. As I mentioned before in a previous post I would like to start over with iCloud and if you are familiar with how to do that I would appreciate hearing more. I want to associate the iCloud account with my long time email account. Not JJiMac. JJ

    My Contacts Disappeared:

    Thanks. Yes. Since those previous posts by PEDZ and DELTAMAC I reconnected the iCloud to the iMac and it restored my Contacts. but the tips I got on using Time Machine will help in the future. I just think off hand that it was surprising that the iCloud yields that kind of Power that by...

    My Contacts Disappeared:

    "Ominous" only because when I deleted it, it took my contacts with it. (Those contacts were there in my iPad long before I connected the iCloud to it.) I sometimes wonder who else might have access to my iCloud content. It feels like "Big Brother" in some ways. You are right about the...

    My Contacts Disappeared:

    the reason I did not launch "Time Machine" when I bought the new iMac was because I found it rather confusing. As I recall it asked me to choose where to save it (Which DISC) and I was wondering what the selection should be. (What was I supposed to do next?)

    My Contacts Disappeared:

    I never Launched my Time Machine, for some reason. But just to continue on I went to my iPad and reinstated my iCloud. "Presto" the complete CONTACT list restored automatically but only on the iPad. The iMac didn't restore. I think iCloud is very ominous and may even be dangerous to a...

    My Contacts Disappeared:

    I am mortified: all my saved Contacts have disappeared. First I was having trouble with my iPad Mail connecting to the server. I deleted my mail account from the iPad and then reinstalled it and it worked perfectly , but later on I noticed that my contacts had disappeared from the iPad. I...

    iPhoto 11

    I have a new iMac and upgraded to Lion so this version of iPhoto is the latest but when I go to "sort" photos that are in an album and want to do it manually I noticed that that option is listed but in a much lighter type face and doesn't respond when I hit it with the curser. This would seem...

    (MisterMe and not so Crotchety Mikuro ) both of you have provided me with enough information to keep me in Safari. I expect to stay there and thanks for your contributions. jBarley...you like unobtrusive type and get rid of gaudy icons. Now if anyone else cares to contribute more I welcome...

    Mozilla's Firefox browser vs. Safari

    Thanks jbarley, Speed? Please elaborate. Which browser is faster and how did you measure it? Also I can't help but wonder if there are other advantages to using Safari. Steve Jobs was a brilliant man surrounded by similar minds and after reading more about this man my opinion was that...

    Mozilla's Firefox browser vs. Safari

    Thanks MisterMe...Any security issue is important but if that is NOT A PROBLEM with the Firefox browser that's great! I am curious if Safari delivers ANYTHING to the iMac computers that Firefox does not?

    Mozilla's Firefox browser vs. Safari

    For years I have used the Firefox browser and never gave it a second thought until I recently bought a brand new iMac and installed the Lion program so I am about as up to date as I can get with Apple. I even downloaded the most recent application of Firefox and am continuing to use their...

    Any good programs like Picasa for Mac?

    Caledai, Thanks...I have an iMac and am currently testing Picasa. I have uploaded some albums from iPhoto to Picasa and have used Picasa to send these albums to friends experimentally right now. As yet I have not used Picasa to alter any of these photos ... it isn't readily apparent yet to me...
