How do i open Webpageicons.db? I'm trying to delete my favicons and can't!

How do i open Webpageicons.db? I'm trying to delete my favicons. Way back some time ago I think instead of deleting the items inside the favicons file I sent the whole folder to the trash. So now I don't have a file folder, its a document page that Adobe Reader states it can't open. A pop up window reads: Adobe Reader could not open 'WebpageIcons.db' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). First of all I don't know what db is. Is it a document? Is there anyway to change "db" into something that can be opened. I have 10.7mb in Webpageicons.db that need to be deleted. My Imac is loading pages very slowly and I think starting by emptying the favicons it may help. I have a iMac 3.2 Ghz intel Core i3 with 4 gb of memory. It's running OS X 10.6.8. Any help with solving this issue would be very appreciated. Thank you

Try putting the file in the trash, but don't empty the trash. Restart your browser and see if web pages load any better. The file is a database file, which may have become corrupt.

How do i open an Appleworks file now that I am running Mavericks and Pages?

How do I open an Appleworks file now that I am running Mavericks and Pages?

Word Processing documents can be opened directly in Pages 4 (AppleWorks 6 only) but this is no longer available - the newPages 5 (Mavericks required) does not open AppleWorks documents. Panergy Software's docXConverter v3.2 ($19.95) can convert Appleworks 5 and 6 Word Processing documents to RTF (though it has been reported that it can only handle documents which contain only text, not those which include images or frames). The latest version of the free LibreOffice has announced that it can open AppleWorks 6 Word Processing documents and an ability to open ClarisWorks documents has been reported: it does appear to be able to handle at least some embedded images.
Draw Documents can be opened directly only in EazyDraw (the more expensive version from their website, not the cheaper one from the Mac App Store, and you will need v4.0 'Retro' not the most recent version) or Intaglio (though this appears not to be able to handle very complex drawings). LibreOffice will open simple Draw documents but I found it very unreliable with complex ones.
Spreadsheets can be opened directly only in the older versions of Numbers - the new version for Mavericks will not do this. The old version is no longer available.
Presentations can be opened directly only in the older versions Keynote; again, the new version for Mavericks will not do this. The old version is no longer available.
To use other programs, or open Database documents at all, you must export from AppleWorks first, which means you need a way to run it.
If you have upgraded to Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks and have AppleWorks documents you cannot open, then you should be able to install Snow Leopard on an external hard disk and start from that (provided that the Mac did not come with anything higher than Snow Leopard originally installed); and success has been reported in running Snow Leopard Server under emulation in Parallels - the method is described here: Snow Leopard Server is available in the Apple Store (by telephone) at a reduced price (at the time of writing) and is preferable to using ordinary Snow Leopard which is quite tricky. I haven't tried this myself: use at your own discretion. You can then run AppleWorks as an emergency measure.

Make certain you have updated to the absolute latest Java from the official Java site, then try the download again.
YESTERDAY, 2 Feb 2013, new version of Java 7 was released by Oracle.
If you are running 10.7 or later get it ONLY from here, NOT from third parties:

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

I had an album on my iPad that didn't have a delete option. I was able to finally remove everything by connecting the iPad to iTunes and going to the Photos tab. Select sync photos. It will ask you if you want to replace all photo on iPad with sync photos. Apply the setting and then un-sync photo again. It will then remove all photos on iPad starting with a clean slate.
Be sure to backup all your photos before doing this. Hope that helps.

How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
Turn off auto-update here:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
They point to where the apps really are which is:
For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=10.6+snow+leopard&_sacat=0&_odkw=mac+os+10.6 &_osacat=0
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

it's best to just let it download, then delete once it is on your computer.

I deleted addressbook framework and can no longer open some apps

hey!
I've been clearing up space on my 10.5.8 mac hardrive. I've deleted my things by moving them to the trash and then emptying it. However, I have emptied out 'Addressbook.Framework' I thought it was just to do with the address book app which I don't use anyway ( I know that this is very silly but I really don't know much) but since I've deleted Addressbook.framework, I have not been able to launch Google Chrome, Spotlight, Finder and iPhoto. I can't access any of my files but I know they are still there. I have deleted all my other browsers (Safari and Firefox) so I only have Chrome left but I can't launch it so I can't access internet on my macbook (i'm using my iphone right now). If I had internet access I would be able to download the recovery program for recovering the emptied trash but I don't have a browser to download the program so....
what do I have to do? I know you can download a browser on someone else's laptop and then transfer it by USB but my mac is quite old (10.5.8) so I don't know if that's going to work.
Should I but the installation disc for mac os x snow leopard 10.6? Would that solve the problem? I know it could but I want to keep all my personal data and since I can't access finder, I don't know if I will be able to transfer files into an external hardrive or not.
Please help me. I am now very sad because I've spent so much time downloading movies onto my mac but now I can't access them and can't use the internet.
Ps. I think it will be helpful if I type up the problem detail that comes up when I click Report. I've only typed out the bottom bit which seems to be the error.
Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/AddressBook.framework/Versions/A/AddressBook
Reference from: /System/Library/CoreServices/Spotlight.app/Contents/MacOS/Spotlight
Reason: image not found

I Should add as well that after I emptied out the trash everything was still fine, I could open all the apps. But then I restarted my laptop and it all went wrong as I've mentioned above. I tried restarting it again just now but now I'm getting a blank blue screen with yhe occasional "The Application Spotlight has quit unexpectedly". I didn't only delete Addressbook.framework I've deleted many other things from the Library which I thought weren't necessary but AddressBook.framework is causing the most problem right now.
thank you in advance

You have a Retina MacBook Pro, it runs OS X 10.7 or 10.8.
It won't run Snow Leopard (10.6) and Rosetta is only for Snow Leopard to run older PowerPC processor based programs when Mac's used to have those instead of the Intel processors they all have now.
So that software your installing is incredibly old, if you bought it, return it for a refund.
Also you don't need a anti-virus for OS X, Apple installed one for all OS X 10.6.8-10.8 users.
If you need anti-virus to clean the Windows files of their malware before passing it on, then the free ClamXav does the job.

In iPhoto, I'm trying to create a book and can't figure out how to delete pages

In the old iPhoto you could simply delete the pages and I'm not finding the key stroke to do so in iPhoto 11.
Thanks

Hi lachanel5,
Not sure if you found this in iPhoto Help yet, but it says (red highlights mine):
To delete a page from a photo book:
Books require an even number of pages. If deleting a page creates an odd number of pages, iPhoto automatically adds a blank page to or deletes a blank page from your book to keep the page count at an even number.
Open the book project.
The book pages appear in All Pages view.
Press the Control key while you click the page that you want to delete, and then choose Remove Page from the shortcut menu.
Note: You can also delete a page while viewing a page spread.
A message appears asking if you want to delete the page.
Click Yes.
The Note about deleting a page means pressing the Delete key on the keyboard.
Note there is a 20 Page minimum to the Books so if you have less than that, it won't let you delete pages, the Remove Page option will be dimmed. You need to change them to something else instead.
Hope that helps,
ivan

How do I open a new FireFox browser window to the home page and url filled?

win 7 64-bit, firefox 5 open new window no url. When I have firefox open and open a new browser window, the new window does not open on the home page and no url is present in the address field. If I click on the favicon in the address field, the url of the current page will automatically fill in. The forward and backward arrow buttons remain disabled. In addition, links opened in a new window cause a new browser window to open, but the linked to website is not displayed in the new windows. What is displayed is a new window completely blank with no url in the address bar. I tried to include troubleshooting information by clicking on the copy to clipboard, but apparently the character count was exceeded.

I disabled all plug-ins and extensions. the problem has been resolved. Now I will enable each one individually to find out which one was the offender.
