Have loaded lion and now can't access office for mac or apple works as it says it does not support power pc applications, how can I acces them or better still reinstate them please?

MS-Office for Mac versions 2004 and older do not run in Lion since these are PPC-apps for which Apple has dropped support.

Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

HT4759 Can I place documents created with Microsoft Office for Mac, eg. WORD, or .pdf files be stored in iCloud? If so, how can I put them there?

Hi,
I am trying to learn how to use iCloud, would like to hsve it my documents on it, which are mostly created in WORD (part of Microsoft Office Suite for Mac) or .pdf files. I don'r see how to get them into iCloud. Actually I don't see how to place anything at all in iCloud other than contacts, etc. I am not seeing how it can be usedul to me.

I should have been more clear. You have to buy the iWork programs from Apple. They are available in the App Store.
Pages: http://www.apple.com/iwork/pages/
Numbers: http://www.apple.com/iwork/numbers/
$20 each.
The iWork programs are integrated with iCloud and work fairly automatically with it. iCloud is only intended for specific purposes and is not intended for general purpose storage.
Dropbox is though, and it's free.

I down loaded Lion and now I can not access Quicken

I down loaded Lion and now I cannto acces Quicken or any of my financial information. What do I do? Is there any way for me to be able to access Quicken again?

cglasgow123, although you should have checked compatibility of your apps with Lion before upgrading, since any major system update can cause these sorts of problems, that does not help you solve your problem. Just keep it in mind for the future, so you don't make the same mistake.
There are a number of Quicken replacements out there. See Finding a Replacement for Quicken for some excellent guidance. I strongly suggest you begin migrating to one of these programs soon, as Intuit has a very poor record with how it treats its Mac-using customers. They have promised an update to the years-outdated Mac version of Quicken "sometime in the spring." I wouldn't hold my breath, though.
You could try using Quicken Essentials in the short term, which is a dumbed-down version of Quicken for Mac users that will run on Lion.
If nothing else works for you, and you absolutely have to run your old copy of Quicken, you have three choices. One, you could install Snow Leopard and Quicken on an external hard drive and boot from that whenever you need to use Quicken. Two, you could install Snow Leopard Server in a virtual machine and run it, and Quicken, within Lion. (Post over on the Snow Leopard Server forum for assistance with that, I don't know the details.) Three, you could revert to Snow Leopard entirely, though that will be a painful process requiring you to erase your hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard and everything else from scratch.

I installed Lion and now my MS office will not work, is there a way to revert back my original software?

Back to Snow Leopard from Lion install method
Read and print out these instructions, your computer is going to be offline and you wil be cutoff from help until your machine is restored.
Clear the Desktop, Downloads and Trash of anything you wish to keep by placing their files in the respective Documents, Music, Pictures, Movie folders.
If you have a TimeMachine drive, update it and disconnect for the duration of this restore time. It will be your second backup system and will have to be wiped and setup again after successfully going back to Snow Leopard if it was connected to the OS X 10.7 boot drive. If it wasn't, then leave it disconnected without updating to Lion.
Backup ALL your Users folders (Documents, Pictures, Movies, Music etc) manually (drag and drop methods) to a (not TimeMachine) external powered drive (HFS+ journaled formatted in Disk Utility) and disconnect, your going to be wiping the entire disk of ALL DATA. (warning, everything will be gone and not recovered)
Here we go!
Hold c and boot off the 10.6 installer disk that comes with your computer and second screen in just STOP.
Look at the Utilities Menu for Disk Utility.
On the left is the name of your hard drive maker, click it and Erase (format HFS+ Journaled), give it the same name as before, and click Erase...
This should wipe the drive of ALL partitions (GUID, OS X and 10.7 Recovery, Windows if present)
When it's done, quit and install OS X 10.6. Then install all your programs from fresh sources and validate/update.
When you setup a first account, use the same user name as before, this way you can simply drag and drop the content of your previous Users folders from the external drive right back into the new Users folders and everything should work peachy. Links in iTunes to music, playlists and iPhoto links especially.
Update OS X to 10.6.8 using the Combo Update for best results.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
(Note: If your original machine had 10.5 and you want the free iLife that comes with the disks with the computer, then you'll have to install 10.5 first using the same c boot/erase/format methods as above, then update to 10.6 via the disk, then Combo Update 10.6.8)
Final step optional but highly receommended.
A lot of people use a Carbon Copy Clone of their boot drive to a HFS+Journaled external drive as a "hold the option key" bootable backup in case something goes wrong with their boot drive or need to restore to a previous OS X version.. (in addition to TimeMachine drive for more immediate backups.)
It's not advised to have a Bootable Clone and a TimeMachine partition on the same external drive, as two drives gives hardware protection in case one fails.

I loaded Mountain Lion and now my Canon Canoscan LIDE100 Scanner won't work. I reloaded the application, checked the driver & loaded the Canon driver for Mountain Lion. Aplication starts to load then hangs up on 80% complete. Any suggestions?

Might have a hardware issue that was caused by the minor liquid spill.
Take it to Apple to have them look at it. I think they do a free diagnostics. That way you can find out what's wrong with your MB.
Good luck....Hope you get it sorted out.

Just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

I am assuming the phone was working prior to you installing IOS 6? Did you use itunes to install IOS 6 or just run from the phone?
When I tried to do the Over The Air update to IOS6 on my iPhone 4, it errored out and I had to connect it to iTunes and select "Restore" from the summary screen after iTunes finds the phone is connected. If this works for you, it will go through a couple of reboots that take a few minutes to complete. It should then give you the option to start with a fresh new phone or to use one of your previous backups to load your contacts and other information, provided you have backed up the phone previously.
I hope this helps you my friend!

What version of Logic do you have?
And if you end up upgrading, it's only $199 now.
