Hello,

I am trying to take the songs out from  my ipod shuffle (2008 device) but i can. i contact apple and they said that its not possible. that those devices works only one way. i can put music in but i can not take music out.

i was wondering is there is a third party software that allows me to estract the music from the shuffle so then i can import in it iTunes or play it in some other way.

when i plug the shuffle in my laptop i can see  the 260 songs but i can not play them neither copy them out.

any advice please

The Windows 10 user was really productive using Picasa (when it was around)
Rather than continue to use an old version of Picasa, they would like to use an application that has almost the same functionality, especially including:
Automatic sorting by date
Deletion of duplicates
Creation and sharing of albums
Simple editing of photos.

They have an iPhone, a lot of storage in iCloud, and they're using iCloud for Windows for synchronization.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I have 2 Macs/Mojave and one iCloud.com account. I updated App ID password on Mac #1 (Why? because previous password no longer worked - Why ???)

Now the fun begins [read torture]...

1. Change iCloud.com password on Mac mini/Mojave #1...
2. Spend time entering 2-factor ID 6-digit code (Wait! - do I have iPhone at hand? - yes, whew!)
3. Ok, now able to open iCloud.com account with new password
.

4. Go to Mac mini/Mojave #2...
5. Login to icloud.com is NoGo using password as updated (changed) in 1-3. above

This is the second time I have been down this road. I don’t know why new password (#1) was required, and worse working iCloud password on Mojave #1 again does not work on Mojave #2.

It gets worse…

Any ideas why this password is not valid on second Mac?

[Next Day] - Any ideas why Password (see 3, above) is ‘invalid’ next day on Mac#1?

That is, I cannot login to iCloud.com from Mojave #1 or Mojave #2

Of course, I can (I assume) create a new Apple ID / Password - is this good idea?

How can I use other cloud instead of iCloud for my Apple ID iPhone/iPad account

I have a brand new Windows 10 Lenovo laptop with MS Home and Business 2016 installed. On my old laptop I had the iCloud Windows desktop app installed that would allow me to sync my iCloud calendar to my Outlook calendar. Worked great.
I have installed all of the same software although the iCloud Desktop is a newer version. I don't have the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks" button to check in the iCloud settings. I have iCloud Drive, Photos, and Bookmarks but not "Mail, etc". It is missing. I have performed a repair of Office, signed in and out of iCloud several times, repaired the iCloud app multiple times and even uninstalled and reinstalled. I have tried it with Outlook configured with an email account and without.
I am at a loss of what to try next. Remember this is a new laptop so I don't have any other software installed yet but Office and iCloud for Windows.
Thoughts?

Hi guys

My father's 27inch early 2011 imac needed a little upgrade. I went and put in a Crucial 500gb SSD disk into it into where its old hard drive used to be.

When we boot, i am getting the question mark with a folder. I tried holding the Alt option and in doing so only the internet recovery comes up. I tried command R and same thing.

Anyway, so I chose the internet recovery. It took 20mins. Then it came to the menu where I could choose disk utility. I went in and could see the SSD.  I formatted my SSD to Mac format (journaled). I restarted it and still same. Then i tried doing something similar to choose it as the startup disk but I can't. I tried attaching an external disk with Mac Sierra installation on it. It isn't giving me the option of seeing this disk either at startup.

What gives? Is it the Mac itself? Should I take the SSD and install it onto a MacBook Pro and try putting the OS on it that way?

Thanks for helping

How do I copy (move is OK) single photo from iPhone [iOS 12.1.4] to Mac OS Mojave [Mac OS 10.14.3] with minimum effort. No 'Continuity Camera', No Air Play, No iTunes.

Click 'n Drag would be ideal, but likely not possible :-) - I do this infrequently and would like simple method to get 1 photo from iPhone to Mac OS. Copy to Desktop/Folder OK - just want simple method. iPhone is connected to Mac with Lightning/USB cable. Seems Apple must have solved this...

I have spent too much time with no photo copy/move - Help!!

Link below says:  The iCloud Drive Archive folder appears when you turn off iCloud Drive…

How (and why) would this occur? - not done with my knowledge

There  are currently 4 iCloud Drive (Archive) - X [X = 1-4]  files on my hard drive.

Why are the created? How do I prevent these files from being created?

The iCloud Drive Archive folder appears when you turn off iCloud Drive. Instead of just dumping your Documents and Desktop files into your local Documents and Desktop folders, where they could create quite a mess if you already have files there, it puts these in these iCloud Drive Archive folders so you can look in them and figure out what to do with these files orphaned by turning off iCloud Drive.

How to organize iOS/OSX photos from iCloud, 2 Macs and several iDevices (iPhones, iPods, iPad) so that all photos are always available on all devices - without any organization (grouping by date, type, etc) except chronological order by date entered, if possible. Future images are to  be added to iCloud current date with no grouping. No organization by Google (etc.) to be allowed. Just as in earlier days, when photo prints added to Album in order received.
