Firefox is asking for software update and it's been running for 4 hours now?????? Is it for 4.0?? If so, I have gotten a pop up saying I already have it... I'm really concerned about this update??.

What more do you need?????

    I am trying to hard sync my i phone to my MAC before I purchase a new phone. My MAC however has a pop up that says I already have 5 computers associated with this ID. So I went into i tunes store and had a list of 4 items, I deauthorized 2, my i pod & i pad, which left 2 items on the list. However I am still getting the same pop up saying I have 5 devices. Any ideas how to correct this?

    Go to one of the other computers and use the Deauthorize Computer function. If you don't have physical or network access to any of them, use the Deauthorize All command documented in the article you asked this question from, and if that's not an option, the link to contact the iTunes Store staff at the bottom of it.

  • I started the Iphoto update and it had been running for hours to upgrade my photo library

    Today I ran my updates that were available.  One was for Safari and one was for Iphoto.  I restarted my computer and went to my Iphotos.  It has been showing upgrade for six hours and still nothing.  It just continues to show that it is upgrading my library.  I had not read anything about this as I trusted that it run would smoothly.  Now I am seeing that there have been problems and that I should have backed up my photos.  Is there hope that it is still trying to upgrade my photos?

    It's not upgrading your photos, it's upgrading the Library.
    Try force quit iPhoto (it's in the Apple Menu) and cross your fingers that there has been no damage.
    If there has been damage post back.

  • I'm trying to share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I have tried several times to save at 1080 HD, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying "File already open with write permission."  What's this mean?

    I'm trying to finalize/share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I'd like to finalize it 1080 hd and have tried several times, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying it can't be done because "File already open with with write permission."  What does this mean?  All files are closed; this iMovie project is the only thing open.  Does it mean one of the song files from iTunes? And should I just settle for saving it as a "large" file, which is what I'm trying right now?
    Thanks,

  • Hello, my ipad mini is completely 0% and it won't charge on a wall charger, i tried to reboot, but then the low baterry sign pop up saying it is not charged, which is really annoying to me, i literally had to wait 8 hours to reach 1% before, thank you!

    Hello, my ipad mini is not charging what so ever and it is literally 0%. Once I put it on my wall charger, it still won't charge. I tried rebooting it, by pressing the home and sleep button for 15 second. I tried to change the wall outlet, AC Charger Adapter with USB for the Apple ipad mini and nothing would not work. This happened more than a billion times, and i had to wait more than 18 hours just to reach 1% before.
    My Imessage doesn't work either, each time I send a message it won't send.
    I have lots of problems with my ipadmini.
    Please help me,
    Thank you!

    iMessage not working:
    1. Make sure software is up to date
    2. Make sure Messages is enabled; Settings>Messages
    3. Make sure Date and Time is correctly set; Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    4. Make sure Push Notification is enabled
    5. Make sure phone number or email address is correct
    6. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) until you see the Apple Logo

  • I have 2 apps that have been waiting to update for a week.  I don't really care about the update, I would just like to use them, but the are stuck waiting.  I have tried powering down, syncing with my computer...all fails.  Any ideas?

    At this point you have no choice but to update the or delete them and reinstall them since you wont be able to use them until they update - or come out of the "waiting" loop.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

    Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
    This happens the same whenever I try to install.
    To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
    My plugin is still showing as out of date.
    Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

    Hi,
    I'm in Nova Scotia, Canada and when I try to use Siri it loads and loads and then says, "I'm really sorry about this, but I can't take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while."
    I rebooted and it didn't fix the problem. I just got my iPhone 4s (unlocked right from Apple) several weeks ago.

    Siri has been a bit more erratic than usual in the last week or so. Apple has announced a major announcement for 9/12. Conclusions are left to the reader.
    Best of luck.

    Yes. Try a different electrical outlet or computer and a different USB cable.

  • On a Software Update, downloading Firefox, it never connects to the server even though I've run it all night long. Also will not link to info about this update.

    A window with the Mozilla Firefox logo in the upper left corner has been appearing on my PC for over 3 weeks. It says I'm "strongly urged to update" and there is a link to more information about this update. The link is totally unresponsive, but I have attempted to run the update several times after checking the page status.
    After pressing the button on the bottom left to update, the screen changes to the same Mozilla logo in the upper left, with "Software Update" next to it. Immediately below is "Downloading Firefox. then there is a green bar scrolling horizontally with "Connecting to the update server" underneath the bar. It never makes the connection, the software update is never downloaded. I have attempted to accommodate this request a half dozen times. WHAT IS IT?

    If you have problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

  • Clicking on "View more information about this update" for 31.5.0 does nothing

    I got a pop-up today that Thunderbird 31.5.0 is available. I clicked on "View more information about this update" because that usually takes me to the release notes and I prefer to read about updates and download and install them myself, rather than have the system do it for me. (I do this so I can save previous versions in case I run into a problem with the latest and want to go back.) But when I clicked on "View more information about this update" nothing happened. It didn't switch over to the browser nor start loading the release notes.

    About 5-10 minutes after I had clicked on "View more information about this update" a few times (and had manually gone to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/31.5.0/releasenotes/ and downloaded and was in the process of installing the new release), my browser opened up three tabs on that page. I guess it was just a very delayed response.

  • I am updating the software on my daughters IPOD touch 4th generation and it is going on 4 hours now.  I know this is not normal.  What can I do?  It synced just fine, but has been stuck on" updating ipod software for 3 hours now!

    I am updating the software on my daughters IPOD touch 4th generation and it is going on 4 hours now.  I know this is not normal.  What can I do?  It synced just fine, but has been stuck on "updating ipod software" for 3 hours now!
    She has had it for about 6 months and this is the first time we have plugged it into the computer since then.  I can not exit out of itunes either.

    If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required.  You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

  • I have just deleted Macintosh HD. Now I have reset my computer and there is just a flashing glider with a question mark. I don't know what to do, I'm really worried about this so please May you get back to me as soon as possible?

    I have just deleted Macintosh HD. Now I have reset my computer and there is just a flashing folder with a question mark. I don't know what to do, I'm really worried about this so please May you get back to me as soon as possible?

    Why did you delete the hard drive?   If you delete the contents of the Macintosh HD you have no system to boot into.  That's what the flashing folder/? means.  What system were you using before deleting everyting.
    You're going to have to install a system on the HD before you can boot.

    Thanks James, I just tried Siri again and it worked fine on two tests.
    Does this Problem happen often? I have had my Iphone5 for about two weeks and this is the first time I have
    had the problem. My 3gs used Siri to dial phone numbers or use the address book to dial and I never had a problem with it.
    Thanks for posting the system status page.
