If you're interested, I can wait a few days, I'm not in a terrible rush.

It looks to me like I'm missing 20 gigs of space on my new Macbook Pro..my user folder is reported as 83.55GB in size, but the sum of all of the folders inside is 62GB. I've had the computer for less than a week, the only thing I did was copy my iTunes library off of my dead black Macbook's hard drive. Is there any way to force a re-scan of my free space, maybe some files didn't get deleted properly or something?

I'm on a big organization kick and I'm turning my attention to my iTunes library. I didn't care in the past, but a decent portion of my library is either untagged or incompletely tagged. I tried googling, but almost all the posts I found were either really old or for Windows software. I've got ~6500mp3's, is MusicBrainz Picard: http://musicbrainz.org/doc/MusicBrainz_Picard What I'm looking for to go through my library, update incomplete information, tag files without them, etc?

I'm looking to switch out my 2011 macbook pro's hard drive to a larger model. Can I just pop my current drive into a usb enclosure and install from that? Lion didn't come with discs so I'm not sure how this works.

I logged into my server via SMB using root yesterday because Finder was acting up, and now it's defaulting to root every time I connect which is screwing up some programs that need permission to modify the files I put on there. How do I tell finder to go back to connecting as Guest?

What's the easiest way to switch the default language in large group of mkv files (all the languages need to switch from Spanish to English. Alternatively I'd be fine with just removing the spanish language track entirely as I included it by mistake.)?

Is there any way to automate the removal of RAW files in iPhoto? When I'm importing files from my camera I'd prefer to put jpegs into iPhoto for quick uploading for family & friends, and put the RAWs into Lightroom so I can begin to learn postprocessing. Right now I'm importing to Lightroom first, then to iPhoto, then manually selecting every other photo in the iPhoto imports and removing them, but I'm hoping there's an easier way I'm just missing.

Every time I move an email in my gmail account to a different 'label' using Mail it keeps it in the inbox but with that label's tag on it; I don't remember it doing this before I upgraded to 10.8. Is there a way to set it to just straight move it to the new label without keeping it tagged as being in the inbox as well?

I recently bought an Android tablet and am trying to get everything between my Macbook, iPhone & tablet to sync up as much as possible. I'm struggling with calendars. I can see all of the google calendars in iCal but all of the guides I've found to get the iCal calendars pushed to google's Calendar seem to be outdated or just don't work. Is my best option here to export all of my Calendars and upload them to Google, then remove them from Calendar? Will that mess up my iCloud syncing?

computer parts posted:My calendars are synced across platforms and all I did was add the Google account to my calendar (on your Macbook Calendar app, go to preferences -> accounts). Maybe I did something else weird and I don't remember it now but try that. It's definitely in there. It's been over an hour and nothing's popped up in my android calendar app. Tried restarting, nothing happened. I must have something unchecked somewhere..

SeventySeven posted:Try this support article: https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/2670120?hl=en&ref_topic=2586567 Appreciate the links, but none of these instructions are helping at all. It seems like they're for people who have multiple Google calendars, not multiple iCal calendars. I think I'm just going to convert everything to Google calendars, have that push them to my Apple products, and let iCloud back everything else up, because I've tried on my phone & Macbook now and can't get my iCal calendars onto the Android device at all.

Star War Sex Parrot posted:I've never once had an issue with this since switching to OS X with 10.4, so I'm not sure what sort of problems you've encountered. It's worked every time I need to do it. poo poo, am I thinking of the other way around where getting them on flash drives was a pain? The last time I worried about setting up bootable stuff was when my windows PC died and I eventually just copied the ISO to the flash drive I was using and making it bootable on a friend's copy of windows because I just couldn't get it to boot otherwise..

For some weird reason iTunes refuses to follow the color scheme I set in the General preferences. I want Granite, but when I set it to that, iTunes sets to blue. When I switch the settings to Blue, everything goes that way except iTunes, which goes to Granite. ideas?

Mercurius posted:You need to plug a USB drive that's large enough to have the ISO put onto it in first or the installer has nothing to make a bootable thing from. There should be another option above the 'Download the latest Windows support software from Apple' thing there about making a USB installer. Is your USB stick being detected in disk utility? Yep; I've actually tried 2 different USB drives, a 16 & a 64gb. Both show up in Finder/Disk Utility, but I don't see any other options in the Boot Camp Assistant. I've tried restarting after plugging each one in just in case, too.

Well, that explains why I don't have that option, it's a 2011 Macbook Pro. That's a stupid distinction to make. flosofl posted:Do you have an integrated Smart Drive? If so, you can't use BootCamp to to create a bootable USB. (well, you can but you have to edit a plist file, Google will help you with that). I'll start googling for this. Thanks for the help!

I just opened up Photos and it seems to have migrated everything over from iPhoto. Can I get rid of iPhoto safely now? It'd be nice to free up an extra 1.7 gigs of space, but I don't want to accidentally delete any of my photos or break something in the process.

Star War Sex Parrot posted:Openemu has N64 support. It's kinda wonky with some titles -- even Mario Kart 64 has some problems. However it's still probably the best you'll find right now. Thanks for this! N64 emulation has always been iffy but Shadows of the Empire is running well which is all I care about at the moment. This also looks like a great front-end for other systems too which is a nice bonus.

I tried installing this driver to get my 360 controller working on my 2011 MacBook Pro (2.3ghz i5, 10.10.4) and after working the first time after plugging the controller in, it's now non responsive when plugged in (though it shows up in the control panel) and when I unplug it, the computer goes into a hard reboot. I've got no idea how to troubleshoot this or uninstall the driver; anyone dealt with this by chance? http://www.tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver

My mom sent me two emails from some family gatherings, one with 25 and one with 13 attachments.
