• Time machine wants to inherit the last backup I did on the same computer

  I made a backup for a while (6 months).  At the start of time machine, I get a box asking if I want to inherit the history of backups from another computer.  The problem is that the backup was not made on another computer... earlier versions have been but not the last one...

  Apple Photo 1.3 serious problems - how can I SOLVE all these problems?

  (1) breaks down without rhyme or reason no matter where I am in the workflow.

  (2) pictures will not be Shut Down Every Time, even after several days of waiting.

  (3) aPhoto frequently badly chooses picture in the EDIT picture option, I get a picture different than the one I clicked on which is on a 100 pictures in a row.

  (4) picture constantly order of photos in a slideshow changes no matter how many times the movements of the end user the photo back to the good look at an order. Example: Bathroom Plans eventually grouped with pictures of kitchen! I have found no way to stop this weird behavior! Is there a way to stop this? If I drag the photo again some 7 additional photos in the slide show, after a minute or less, he appears again to where it was it not. !@#$%$#

  (5) If you make any CHANGES to a photo, it often changes the appearance of your complete slideshow of this picture with impatience. So you lose all this not work fix your configuration of the slide show. Even changing the order of photos once more that I had put back where they should be. !@#$$#@

  (6) photo identifies often shades of lamps and long door handles as the faces of the people.

  (7) photo made bad decisions when it comes to brightness, contrast and colors effortlessly around other than to use other software, where as with iPhoto there was a lot of workarounds. I could continue, but will save one who might be reading of this.

  I am up to date on all updates for my Mac. If anyone have REAL answers so please spilling the beans, but according to me, it's the only truth is that Apple has rolled out a product inferrer to replace an exceptional product, called iPhoto, which does not work on my new iMac computer 5K of 27 ".   If I knew what I would have chosen another computer that I use iPhoto to prepare more of fifty to sixty thousand photos in a given year and I use iPhoto to make hundreds of slideshows from it.  Are there plugins for Photo 1.3? I ask because I see where there could be Add-ons, but I can't find.

  Apple has taken a serious decision by turning his back to iPhoto and tens of millions of loyal users.

  Thanks in advance to anyone brave enough to tackle this job.

  original title: How do I get rid of non-existent hard disk that appears on my computer screen?

  I have a local disk (q) that loads automatically on my folder "Computer" [the folder that shows all hard drives and peripheral storage removable]. The drive does not exist and when I double click above it says "Q:\\ is not accessible access is denied." I unplugged my external hard drives, and these drives disappear from the screen by this disc remains still.  How can I get rid of him?

  I found an article from third party in which people have found a solution:

  Hide the Local disk (q) added by Office 2010 Beta

  I hope this helps! (you can back up the registry first)

  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk

• Hoax call on notifications about a virus tries to hijack your computer and ask for help to remove the files?

  OT: security.

  Dear community,

  Did anyone out there contacted by "windows" say you they receive notifications about a virus tries to hijack your computer and ask for help to remove the files? Initially, it was an area code 855, but now the number is unavailable. I get a lot of calls.

  any help would be appreciated

  Thank you

  Hello

  It's a scam.

  Here are the tips that we regularly give the posters who receive these types of calls:

  We have all the errors and warnings in our Event Viewer

  Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

  You are the only person who knows if you gave them remote access.

  If you gave them remote access and you do Internet banking, contact your bank, to explain, and change passwords.

  If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

  And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.

  There is an article in the link I'm you provide at the end of this one

  Read this Information from Microsoft:

  "Avoid scams to phone for tech support.

  Hi EatonmcMT,

  1. what security software is installed on the computer?

  2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.
