Other Events:
-Just Before this happend i was editting a video on FCPX, y export it and tried to upload to Google Drive (in Chrome), when it was uploading I closed FCPX and the uploading stop it at 91%, y tried to reupload but then I realized that this video was in a temp folder and it wasnt there anymore, so I open FCPX to export it again and i couldnt, it was just bouncing and then "App not responding".
-After Installing Yosemite i feelt it slow even after it finished the encriptation File Vault, specially in chrome.
I have tried:
1-Repair Disk Permisions
2-Reset SMC
3-Reinstall FCPX
4-Decrypted the Disk and create another user and i was able to run Chrome, FireFox and FCPX, When I opened FCPX it started but when it was trying to open the project that i was working , it restarted the app and i couldnt open FCPX again, just bouncing and App Not Responding
Any suggestions to keep my User working?

Yes, as long as you let TM do a full disc backup (that is, you do not exclude anything in the TM backup settings) you will have a backup that allows a full system restore - puts everything back just as it was.
You can also clone your system using the shareware app SuperDuper or the donation-ware app CarbonCopyCloner

http://www.bombich.com/
Both of these apps will make a true clone (literally, a bit-by-bit copy) of your hard drive onto an external drive. This clone will actually be bootable itself (you plug in the drive and hold the option key during startup then select the clone to boot from). You would boot from the clone, then reverse-clone it back onto your internal hard drive.
If you are really serious about being highly confident of not loosing files, you could use both - I keep a TM backup on one drive, and 2 clones on separate bus-powered hard drives.
P.S. even if you had not had any issues, you really, REALLY should be keeping regular, up to date backups anyway - things go flooey without warning sometimes and you risk loosing everything on your machine if you DON'T keep regular backup copies available.

How can I install 3rd party apps with OS 10.8.2on my MBP.

Hello friends,
My MBP OS was upgraded to 10.8.2. Now I am unable to install apps from 3rd parties. Its only installing apps from Apple store only. Is ther a way out?
Best regards
Mohan

Control-click one and choose to open it, or set Gatekeeper to allow usage of that software.

Many 3rd party apps that I have used before now will not open with the alert "XYZ application cannot be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed" Why now?

Backing up 3rd party apps with Time Machine

After what started out as a simple question...why won't my iChat stay connected now that i have installed OS Lion and spending over 2 hours with Apple Phone support and trying all the known trouble shoots, they told me the only thing I can now do is Back Up my MacBook Pro and do a HD erase and reinstall everything. So, this has me a little freaked out! I have never done this and am afraid of the results. In particular, my 3rd party applications such as all my Adobe Suite applications. I no longer have access to the initial start up and install Creative Suite CDs! At first apple support said Time Machine WOULD NOT back up 3rd party apps. Then I get an email and said they were mistaken and it WILL with a link to an article. Yet I see nothing about it with in the article I was sent. SO, has anyone successfully reinstalled their Mac from a Time Machine Backup along with any 3rd party apps?
What is also frustrating is that I asked if I could just go back to Snow Leopard since I had no issues with iChat using that OS. I was told I would have to do the same erasing of my HD either way to reinstall that OS. Ugh.
Thanks in advance!

How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it. All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this? I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
Thanks!

Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

Loss of Music and Video and 3rd party apps not working on 3G

I've had to restore my 3G iphone about 10x now. The phone keeps "losing" my music and video, and then the 3rd party apps don't work. A reset does not help, I have to restore my phone and set it up as a new phone each time. I went to the Genius Bar, they gave me a new phone, but said it was likely a software issue. Has anyone else run into this? Is there a way to fix it? I waste like 2 hours re-syncing my phone every time this happens. I'm so disappointed with this iPhone 3G...I wish I hadn't sold my original iPhone and could switch back to that. Please, any help that anyone can offer would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thank you for replying. Did try this again, and then another recovery (holding down 2 buttons 'til Apple icon) but no luck.

Uninstalling 3rd Party Apps

I'm new to Apple -- from Windows. I installed Firefox and would now like to uninstall it. How do I permanently uninstall 3rd party apps with the Apple?

Tucker
Welcome to the Discussions.There are several ways to uninstall Apps.
1. If the App comes with an uninstaller,use that.
2. If it has no uninstaller,just drag the App to the trash and empty the trash.
3. 3rd party Apps that claim to "completely" remove installed Apps.Unnecessary IMHO.

3rd party apps keep crashing in Mountain lion

I installed Mountain lion yesterday everything looked ok until I tried runnig Skype, it crashed immediately. I tried running other 3rd party apps with same result. Steam, MS Word, Vuze everything crashes, even apps I downloaded fom Mac app store. Does anyone else have this problem?

I've been having a similar issue and surprisingly the app Boom was part of the problem. Seemed to cause audio issues as well as start-up problems for iTunes. I also had to delete all of my automatic login items as they would become non-responsive after login and cause the entire system to become sluggish. So far things are running smoothly again although my audio keeps wanting to switch to Airplay all on it's own, even when the Apple TV is unavailable. I haven't tried putting back the login items yet.
OS X login item issues have been around for a long time so although the 3 party apps may be the main culprits there might also be a connection regarding these long standing login problems.

What is the size of your hard disk? PSE 4 is a very old program and I suspect it is not able to access the entire hard disk on your machine. Just a thought here.

Can I set "open with" for files - associate file types with a 3rd party app

I have PDF file attachments inside my OmniFocus application. When I double-tap them, they get opened in the standard Apple PDF viewer. But I have a better 3rd-party app which opens PDFs and allows me to edit them (mark them up) - I'd like the attachments to open in this app instead of the normal PDF viewer. I don't want to have to switch to the 3rd party app to open it - it's important to me that I can place comments on many, many PDFs inside of OmniFocus. So:
1) is it possible to ask the iPad to have all PDFs to open in this 3rd party app?
2) if not, is it possible to name the attachments some other extension (e.g., .xyz) and tell it to open all .xyz files with the 3rd-party PDF viewer?
thanks in advance,
Mike

just out of curiosity: how did you see this without buying the app - is there some general way to get a trial from the App Store?
When You view the features of the app in the app store, there are pictures of some of the different screens under the main description of the app. I swiped through the pictures and the fourth photo shows a screen - An image in the black box pointing to the image name - roots.jpg. In the window to the right - it says -Action - at the top - in the grey border. I wouldn't have known that the arrow didn't give the same functionality as it does when you open the PDF in Mail. But I was able to see the trash can, the curved arrow and the blue done button on the right. I never heard of the app until we started to posting. Unless the app specifies that there is a free trial period, there is no way that I know to try an app for free.
The thing that I find odd is that you say the arrow is greyed out making that feature unavailable. That arrow icon on the iPad in Safari or Mail is what directs you to the options for - open in, print, email, etc features on the iPad. I assume that arrow must have some functionality somewhere in the app. Not sure why it is greyed out. But I stress, I know nothing about the features of the app or what it is designed to do.

Can't open any 3rd party apps - they crash on startup

I've been an iPhone owner since the first model (I have iPhone 4 now), and I've never seen anything like this.
Last night my iPhone ran out of charge. This morning, when I plugged it in it had to charge for a few minutes before it would turn on. Once it turned on, it said "waiting for activation: this may take a while". I thought this was strange, because my phone is already activated. I'm in an area with no reception, though, so maybe that was the issue.
Once the phone turned on, I tried to open some of my apps. But none of the 3rd party apps would open! When I tap them they appear to open but they shut down / crash right away. Strangely, however, all of the Apple apps that come with the phone will open without a problem (Maps, Mail, Safari, iCal, etc.).
I tried a hard reset but that didn't help. I'm away from home so I can't do an erase and store, and I really need access to some of the data in those apps.
Any ideas?

I did the same this week. I did a sync and now I can't access any of my apps. They appear to open then shut right back down. Have tried to resync, update and about anything else that may fix and nothing. Paying an aweful lot of money just for texting and phone usage. Anyone know how to take care of this issue? I have a 3G phone and been using it for a year without this problem

How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
I need this immediately.
Anybody can help??
I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
Hope this helps?

Several 3rd party apps can't connect to internet?

Recently, several 3rd party apps on my mbp have been unable to connect to the internet. These include but are not limited to: Dropbox, Google Drive, Skype, Transmission, Evernote, Steam, Trillian, plex, several little useful apps such as mailtab for gmail. The Mac App Store is also having issues. I can, however, use Safari to browse with no issue at all. I'm connecting via wifi, no proxies or vpns or anything like that. Can anyone help me out here?

You don't give any examples of the apps that are not working.
Some public WiFi networks will only have certain network ports open, like those for web and mail. If an app uses an unusual network port then it may not work on the public WiFi network.

3rd party apps crashing with 3.1

I have a 3GS running 3.1, and after updating all 3rd party apps are crashing when I try to launch them. The app's splash screen will load, and then it'll go back to the iphone app screen.
I've tried restoring and that didn't help.
I then tried deleting and redownloading apps, and that didn't help.
Has anyone found a way to fix this?

this is Apple's response:
Dear Corey,
Thank you for contacting the iTunes Store. I understand that your applications are crashing, and have not been able to use it because it quits unexpectedly when you try to open it on your device. I know this is frustrating, and I will try to provide as much information as I can to help you resolve it.
Corey, it's possible that the application became corrupt as it was downloading. Because you purchased the application and the installation was not successful, you may download it again at no charge. I recommend that you delete the application from your device and from iTunes, and then download the application to your computer and sync your device to your computer.
To uninstall the application from your device Corey, tap and hold its icon on the home screen until the icons wiggle. Then tap the "X" next to icon of the application to delete it. To stop the other icons from wiggling, press the Home button.
To delete the application from iTunes, open iTunes and click Applications on the left, then click the icon of the application. Press the Delete key on your keyboard, then click the Remove button, and then click the Move to Trash button.
Now, using your computer, sign in to your iTunes Store account and attempt to purchase the application again. You will be notified that you have already purchased the application and will be allowed to download it again for free. After downloading the application to your computer, sync your device to your computer.
If your computer is not available Corey, you may try purchasing the application again using the App Store on your device.
If the application quits unexpectedly even after you reinstall it, please reply to let me know. I will be happy to assist you further.
Please note that if you download other types of iTunes Store content—such as songs or videos—and find that they are unusable, it’s not possible to simply delete them and download them again. Instead, you must sign in to your account, access your Purchase History, and click the "Report a Problem" button.
Thank you for being an iTunes Store customer Corey. We appreciate your business. We here at the iTunes Store appreciate your business.
I did this with a few apps, and most worked, but a couple still display the same launch/crash symptoms. Also, i have several apps that if I delete them from the phone, I would loose information entered into them, so this solution is fair from ideal. I'm also running Blizzard's Authenticator, which I can't easily remove from my battle.net account without logging in, and I can't log in without the authenticator working.
