After my Firefox updated to version 8.0, my mouse started acting up. It is difficult to click on links, sometimes it takes a few tries. Same goes for selecting text, which has become an ordeal. Is anyone else experiencing mouse issues after updating?
Clicking, right-clicking, and selecting is very awkward after the latest update, and many times requires more than one try. At first I thought it was just my mouse that was having issues, but then I realized it only happens in Firefox.
It may be that your hard drive is either failing again or that the hard drive bay SATA cable may need replacing. And if you're getting a "Service Battery" anyway it's probably best to take the machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and get a free diagnosis and estimate for repair. I would specifically ask that the SATA cable be tested so that you can tick that off the list of culprits.
Good luck,
Clinton

After installing IOS 5.1, I am unable to double click the home button and access the camera. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Does a fix or work aroud exist?
I just updated--my Camera is a disaster. Yes, I know how to turn (and position) the Camera now. However, every photo I take is UPSIDE DOWN in the Camera Roll OR Photo Stream. Even worse, a number of my Apps (Weather Underground, for example) are ALSO now upside down. Has anyone here experienced these serious orientation problems after this update? I've read the 'Manual' and its as if it doesn't exist. However, if I leave the Apple site, customer complaints about orientation abound...
This is my first time posting here about an issue (well, the same issue - I posted last week about the Camera, and no one responded). Any advice at all about how to get this corrected is much appreciated!
Thank you!

My older mac book pro and iMac are both running 10.6.8 and both have started running safari and email VERY slowly. My new mac book pro running 10.9 is having no issues. Is anyone else experiencing these issues?
No noticeable speed differences running the four latest OSs on my machine.

I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?
Madmonkey,
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Gaylefromnewhope,
Seems like you tried this all ready and it didn't help.
Next might be to reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
Note that when you do this you will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
If that doesn't help you might tries a restore of your iPad using iTunes on the computer you normall sync with. Do a backup and save all data first. Or
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -
Is anyone else experiencing password issues? Every few weeks I have to reset mine and I'm writing them down!
If you are receiving repeated password reset e-mails, there are two possibilities.
One is that they are simply phishing e-mails. Do not click on any links in those e-mails, and do not respond to them in any way.
The other is that someone is trying to hack your Apple ID. You can prevent that by enabling two-factor authentication:
Apple introduces two-factor authentication
This will prevent anyone from even attempting a password reset without entering a special code that only you will have, and should keep in a very safe place. -
Hello fellow LR users,
Last night, I attempted to drag one sub-folder into a different Parent folder but then I received the "unable to move & unknown error" notification. After a few more attempts I received the same notification. My solution was moving the folder into the different Parent folder outside of Lightroom. I moved the folder in my PCs Operating System.
Has anyone else encountered this issues? Any solutions?
Thank you,
DanielYour method of using the OS is considered best. If you copy (drag) a folder to a new place you simply right-click on the folder name in the LR Library and choose update folder location. Then navigate to the new location.
LR automatically updates the catalog database. You can then delete the original folder. -
Everyone I talk to on my iPhone 6 complains that they cannot hear me very well when I hold my phone with my left hand. As soon as I switch to the right hand everything sounds fine. Is anyone else having this issue or knows what the solution is? Thanks!

Has anyone else experienced WiFi issues after installing Mavericks?
I recently installed Mavericks on my 2009 iMac. After the initial install, everything worked beautifully. After my first reboot, however, the network is having trouble staying connected to the wireless network. I verified the modem/roouter were working by testing on my other wifi enable devices (iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, etc).
My question really, if whether or not anyone else has experienced this after installing Mavericks official release and is this a known issue that I cannot seem to locate information on.
It should be noted that I often use a VPN service called Private Internet Access. And thought I havent had issues with this before any reboot, I thought it would be worth mentioning.
Thank to anyone's help in advance.I've also been having a lot of issues with my wireless after I updated to Mavericks. For me, the problem is manifest whenever I'm using my system in a conference room with a lot of other folks who are also using wireless. The connection is up and down constantly, to the point where it's really not usable. Other folks in the room (who are using Windows systems) don't have the same issues. It's gotten to the point where _they_ are making fun of my me and my Mac (the tables have turned!).
I never had these issues when I was using Mountain Lion. Since it's the same environment and the same hardware (MacBook Pro, 15", Retina), I've started to suspect that Mavericks is the culprit. -
Screen goes to black when tilted back too far...anyone else had this issue?
My ibook has started this crazy new thing. The screen goes to black when tilted close to all the way back. It's not that big a deal, but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and if it possibly will get worse. When it happens, I just close the lid, let in go into sleep mode, then open it back up touch a key and all's well, I just have to be careful not to lean the screen back too far. In the past, I've had to send it back twice for the logic board to be replaced and as much as I love Macs, I really feel this is not a well-made product. Thanks for any advice....

As the old joke goes about the guy who went to the doctor and, raising his arm, said, "Doc, it hurts when I do this." And the doctor said, "Well, then, don't do that!"
Yes, it is a familiar thing to happen to an iBook. The backlight cable can get pinched in the hinge, causing it to go off at certain angles.

my friend was recently in a car crash, and since then, he's ipod classic (180gb, 7th generation i think) has been on the fritz. from what he has told me, when plugged in, it says it is corrpted, but then it goes to an error (which i cannot identify right now).any solutions, or do i need to come back with more info?
Well the iPod is supposed to be synced from YOUR iTunes music library, if you used other means to put music on there then the iPod is going to sync to only what's on your itunes music library when you connect it.
You need to put the files into itunes.
Far as your other issues, sounds like the drive is dying.

This issue happens to me randomly at times. I'll be using Firefox when I try to minimize something, this causes any tabs or multiple pages of Firefox I have up to automatically freeze and won't even respond. They don't even turn a faint color and tell you (Not Responding). The only way I get it to do anything is by opening my task manager and have to forcefully shut down Firefox and then restart it. The problem is, when this happens, Firefox never tries to bring back the pages I had up, so anything I had up I have to personally go off and find again.
Try this:
Go to System Preferences - Bluetooth. Delete the keyboard from the list of devices by pressing the "-" button. Take the batteries out of the keyboard and reinsert them. In Bluetooth Preferences press the '+" button to add the new device. If the keyboard begins to pair, click the word "pair" and type in the passcode. Press return. The keyboard is now paired.
If the mouse is not pairing, try this: shut down the computer completely, unplug any USB mice, then turn off the power to the bluetooth mouse. ONce the computer starts up again, wait for the pop-up looking for a mouse. Turn on the power to the bluetooth mouse. It should work normally now. -

Is anyone else experiencing WiFi issues after upgrading to 8.0.2 ?
after upgrading to iOS 8.0.2 my iphone 5s is not connecting to the wifi network available !
Apple is still signing for 6.0.1 so you can RESTORE BACK to 6.0.1. Just download the 6.0.1 IPSW for your device and then press the shift key while pressing restore (on windows) which will open a window. Select the downloaded IPSW and you'll be back on 6.0.1. And since Apple is still signing 6.0.1 THIS IS NOT A HACK
OR AN UNAUTHORIZED downgrade. So it DOES NOT void your warranty because Apple is allowing you to downgrade because they've allowed the 6.0.1 window to remain open. I did it for my iPhone and it all worked out fine. -
Please help....
If you aren't receiving the emails on your rescue email accounts (and you've checked the spam folder as well as the inbox, and tried clicking the reset link again), then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

Anyone else experiencing disconnection issues with IOS 6.2.1 on the iPad 2
Since the latest update my iPad radomly disconnects from the any wireless connection. It worked perfectly before this update. What gives????? You fix one thing only to break something else. Is there no one testing these updates before hand? I'm just saying. Please get this fixed. It's annoying have to reconnect when I'm in the middle of something......New update...>EPIC FAIL!!!!
Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
