How can i get rid of this iidiotic pop-up. allple is changing for the worst. you have to buy a new macpro in order to upgrade to a higher system, sounds like obamacare.

You have probably clicked on a mailto: web link which directs links to send e-mail messages to wherever the webmaster chooses. Go to the View menu -> Show Statusbar if it available, and then make sure the bottom of your screen is visible. When you hover over a link, if it says: mailto: it will open in your default e-mail reading application set by your browser or your e-mail program preferences.
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Software Update lets you change how often you see the software update window.

When I want to open a PDF document The box that pops up asking if I want to open or save does not come up and it always saves. I need this changed.

When the window opens to ask if I want to save or not comes up it does so for WORD documents just fine, however, for PDF documents it never asks (it used to). Now it just automatically saves them without asking. I need this changed. I went into applications and changed the setting to always ask but it still is just saving, them no window pops up asking what I want firefox to do with the file like it does with a WORD document. IF I cannot get this resolved I will not be able to continue using firefox. I teach and I have students submitting articles etc in pdf format, I cannot constantly save all pdf files. I just want to open them, review them and then move on. There must be a way to change this so that the window asking what I want firfox to do with the pdf files opens.
thank you,
kkwright

Deleted it, restarted it. tried it again. no change. repeated the whole cycle. no change. thinking about uninstalling and reinstalling, but that won't reallyk change the settings.

Why with the last update does the stupid GAMES CENTER always pop up when I want to open a locally stored game? It is really annoying. I click on 'disable' and it just 'disables' it for that session only.

Why is the stupid GAME CENTER a popup every single time I try to access a locally stored (and paid for) game application? It is really annoying! I click on 'disable' and it only disables it for that session. When I come back a while later, the stupid GAME CENTER pops up again....
this just started with the upgrade to iOS6...

I share your frustration. Maybe there are more people that really hate what game center has become. Here's my problem: Ok, so when I open the Game Center app it asks me for my password to log in. But when (while "signed out" of Game Center) I open an app (game app) it automatically signs me in without me even putting in a password. So, if I go directly to the Game Center app, I have to use my password to sign in. If I open a game app, I don't need to use my password...I'm signed in without any verification. I now can close the game app, open the Game Center app and BAM!!! I'm signed in, password free. I have searched for a solution to this nonsense of two days. I have tried changing my Game Center ID four times and every time it says, "Welcome back '&&@&!'!" Apple has every freaking app of theirs listed in the support communities but the Game Center app. Why? I am an adult that likes to relax and spend 30 minutes or so playing a game. I could give two flying $&@&s what I the other guy or a 4 year old did yesterday. I want a solution to delete completely or disable this tracking crapware. And the whole signing me in without me giving a password smells really fishy. I bet we will see a lawsuit really soon even if this is fixed. Definitely a security issue at the minimum.

I have reinstalled cc and vhen i want to open a raw-fil the picture opens in PS CS5 insted of in CC2014. How kan i connekt my raw files to CC2014

I have reinstalled cc and when i want to open a raw-fil the picture opens in PS CS5 insted of in CC2014.
How can i connect my raw-files to CC2014?

You should have Bridge CC installed for CC 2014.
In Windows, right-click on a raw file, and select "choose default program". Photoshop CC 2014 should be listed. Select it. "Always open this file with this program" should also be checkmarked.
If CC 2014 is not on the list, look for the Browse button at the bottom and go to Program Files > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop CC2014 and click on the Photoshop CC 2014.exe to choose it and add to the list.
In Bridge CC Edit > Preferences > File Type Associations, look for your raw file type (CR2 or Nef) and select Photoshop CC 2014 deom the drop-down menu.

I used time machine to restore on a formatted MAC. Now the HDD space has reduced by 100GB but I cannot see any of the files. How do I find and delete those 100GB data from the HDD?

Not necessarily. I'd suggest downloading and installing the "combo" update. That's a combination (thus the clever name) of all the updates to Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards.

Western digital hard drive worked fine on my pc. I connected it to my macbook and it began time capsule, but now I cannot see any of my files on either my mac or pc?

My Western digital hard drive worked fine on my pc. I connected it to my macbook and it began time capsule, but now I cannot see any of my files on either my mac or pc? Please help

Hi there,
Thanks for the reply.
I plugged my usb hard drive in and what looked like time capsule started automatically on my mac. The same hard drive worked perfectly on my laptop pc before, now it connects but isn't visible in my computer.
My second hard drive works perfectly well on both my pc and mac, so I am not sure what has happened to the one in question.

Stephen

Having an odd issue. Frequently, when I go to Safari, I see a popup that goes away in a few seconds. Looks almost like an app download, but disappears in a hurry and then goes to site I was last visiting. I'm stumped how to fix (popups disabled, etc)

Having an odd issue. Frequently, when I go to Safari, I see a (what appears to be) popup that goes away in a few seconds. Looks almost like an app download, but disappears in a hurry and then goes to site I was last visiting. I'm stumped how to fix (popups disabled, etc.)... Goes away so quick I'm not even sure what it's about...

Thanks for the update! Next, and this is like a last step for me, but I would quit Safari one more time, then clear all the Safari data from the phone with this info and then test it out again:
Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Clear information from your device
To clear your history and cookies from Safari in iOS 8, tap Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Clear History and tap Clear Cookies and Data.
To clear other stored information from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data > Remove All Website Data.

I have upgraded my OS into Mountain Lion and now I cannot see any net storage disks. may someone help me? thanks

I have upgraded my OS into Mountain Lion and now I cannot see any net storage disks. may someone help me? thanks

Hi kiwirudy,
I've had the same problem more than once since I started trying to download my 14 April purchase of OS X Mountain Lion.
I found a property list called manifest.plist in my ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder which had a Boolean property called failed checked. I unchecked it and afterwards I was able to resume my download.
Here are some steps I've found useful:
Close the Mac App Store.
make a copy of the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder. For some strange reason the Mac App Store likes to just delete it in some circumstances, which will mean that one has to start one's download again from the very beginning.
Double click on the manifest.plist in one's ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder.
This should open it in Property List Editor.
Expand all the nodes (holding down the alt key and clicking on the highest collapsed node should do it.
Find a key called failed of type Boolean and uncheck it.
Save the manifest.plist and close it.
Open the Mac App Store.
The red message "an error has occured" should now be gone and one should be able to resume one's download.
In the event that the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder gets deleted:
start the download again (it will start from the beginning), pause it and close the Mac App Store.
copy your backup copy of the pkg file back to its sub-folder (it's a numbered folder in the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder).
Open the Mac App Store and resume your download.
It should continue from where it left off.
This has worked for me so far. I'm holding my breath. Don't know if I'll still be alive when it's finished.
Regards
Nic

Upgraded to 10.6.1.7 as prompted and now cannot see any music purchased since March 23, 2012. How can I get these back?
The error message says it cannot find the file but it exists as it was transferred to my ipod.
Thanks.

Ack! We don't need that much.
What you posted looks like the iTunes Library.xml file I will let you read about how iTunes works but not only is the .xml not your main library it is just the listing of tracks in your library and where the music files should be located. Your music is actually in media files (by the way, it is pointless to zip those as they are already compressed). Anyway, read these and you will see that your true library file (iTunes Library.itl) is only a small, but still important, part of a complete library.
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
What are all those iTunes files? - http://www.macworld.com/article/139974/2009/04/itunes_files.html
Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
As you can see, a library has several components, so "getting it back" depends upon what is missing, what it was you actually backed up in the end, if any of this music was purchased from the iTunes Store, etc.

Portege M400: cannot copy files on HDD - cannot see any of my files in Word

I purchased the M400 a few weeks ago. There are a number of problems. Adobe reader gives "an internal error occurred", installing manual from download gives "error has occurred in zip file", downloading or copying files to hdd gives error "there is no space" when only 8 gig used from 60GB. Now I cannot see any of my files in Word.
I cannot also copy files from cd or dvds. I am in canada mississauga on hols, normally reside in the UK so I am in a precarious situation because I cannot get into my desktop to sort matters out.
Can someone please advise me why all these problems are occurring, do I have to use the recovery disk? baz

Thank you Eldorado for your clear advice. As I said I am on hols here and have left my USB external drive at home so it??s impossible to do what you say. Before I embark on your 2nd instruction I would like to say that the warning from the recovery disk is so frightening. It says if the HDD is reformatted I will lose everything including any additional\ software installed which to me means such additional software will not be made good.
But your advice seems quite good because you say everything will be reinstalled when the OS is reinstalled. Can I have your assurance that I go ahead as you say?
Thank you. Baz

Downloaded Canon printer/scanner drivers for Canon PIXMA MP520 and MX860 on Mac Book laptop, and they worked. However, when I downloaded the same two drivers on Mac Book Air, neither worked.

I wasn't aware that VueScan charged a yearly license.
You simply launch Image Capture and if the scanner is recognized it will be listed in the SHARED list in the left display column. Select the scanner name and the app will start an overview scan. You will also see a list of scanning options in the right display column (resolution, paper size, file output format, etc.
The above description is when everything is working correctly, which has been the case for me.
Good luck.

I changed pc's and now I cannot see any of my apps in my iTunes account

Changed pc's and now I cannot see any of the apps I had on my Ipad or Ipod. What can I do to get this back?

From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Full Details Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.
OR...
Download Past Purchases

I right clked on View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the pictures on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it

I right clicked on my mouse and clicked View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the profile pictures or images on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it. Everything is normal on Google Chrome.

See:
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
