- Temporarily disable anti virus software if installed.
- Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading.
- Third party download managers can cause problems when downloading apps.
I see v10.7.4 in your profile but make absolutely sure that's correct because the minimum requirements for Pages is v10.7.4 according to the Pages Information panel at the App Store.
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.

What do I need to do to be able to read and write files to a Seagate Backup Plus Slim Portable Drive on BOTH a Mac and a PC? I downloaded "Paragon NTFS for Mac" onto my Mac, so now I can write to the drive, but when I plug it into a PC it won't work.

If the HDD is formatted NTFS, then it suggests that there is a problem with the PC. Check with the manufacturer.

I recently purchased a Seagate Backup Plus Slim portable hardrive. Despite Seagate claiming the product is compatible with OS X 10.5 I cannot get the installer to launch. Has anyone encountered the same issue and found a viable solution?

A Gigaware 9pin to 4pin fw cable solved my issue. The Rocketfish fw cable was crap. And that thing cost me $24.99 from Best Buy. Getting my money back for sure.

I am trying to finalize a project but it keeps saying that there was an error (-108) what does this mean and what do I do to fix it?

I am trying to finalize a project in iMovie but it keeps telling me that there is an error (-108). Can anyone tell me what this is and how I could fix it?

Hi
Error -108 memFullErr Ran out of memory [not enough room in heap zone]
Turn off - TimeMachine usually works - re-try.
(the Application down in the Dock - not the Device)
But this can mean many thing's - My first thought is
• Free Space on Start-Up hard disk. How much ? (other disks do not count)

Says that there was an error downloading my purchase and to check for downlads avaiable in store but cant find where?

I bought a song and as it was downloading an error occured saying that it could be corrupt and could not be downloaded- to look at itunes stores for to check for avavilablity- I cant find where to do that=)

Yes. You need to correct the billing descrepancy before you can use the iTunes store. Write down what error you are getting, and open a support request at expresslane.apple.com for the iTunes store. They can check the issue and get a solution for you.

I rented a movie and whenever I try to download it, it says that there was an error in the Itunes store and to try again later.

Please Help!

That cryptic error message might mean that the payment information in your account is invalid. Check with your credit-card issuer to see whether a charge was denied. If not, see below.

Rented movie on Apple TV but it says that there was an error loading to try again later

Tried renting a movie on Apple TV. Continue getting error message.

You can either wait until later or go to expresslane.apple.com and seek help there.

Try using Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility to verify/repair the drive.

My iPod is stuck on the main screen saying that there was an error in iCloud backup. How do I fix it?

So when I went on today, my iPod said that it had a problem with iCloud. So, I hit ignore. Nothing happened. I tried a million times, but no luck still. How can I fix this?!

iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups
Then as necessary:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The whole of my Adobe Creative Suite needs updating but once I go through the download process it says that there was an error and the updates failed to download.

It tells me to quit and try again at a later time. I tried to do one program at a time but it still doesn't work. How can I get these updates? I'm using a PC and CS5.

I have the same problem

When downloading the new 10.7 update for itunes, an error message saying that there is an error writing to file, verify that you have access to this file comes up... what is this??

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported".

The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported". What does that mean? I am trying to drag libraries (with metadata) to external HD...wondering what the best way to do that is?

Hi Shane. Not much in the way of thoughts - - but fwiw:
How is the drive attached?
Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
Can you reformat the drive and try again?
Hi Kirby,
I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.
Thanks,
Shane
