    Hi Sandra,
    you'll need to edit the security settings to install programs 'Mac App Store and identified developers'
    Open the Systems Preference and go to Security & Privacy.  There will be a section in the 'General' tab for 'Allow apps downloaded from:"  The default selection is 'Mac App Store'.  Change this setting to 'Mac App Store and identified developers".

    I recently bought some new albums and can't play them on my ipod

    I just encountered the same problem on my 2 month old MBPro.  I found a work around by changing USB ports.  As for the actual cause or the reason why that worked, I dont know.  The USB port I was using works fine with my phone or other USB devices.

    Hi Sara,
    First of all thank you very much for your prompt responses. Here are my comments to each of your suggestions below, and just to let you know I am using a Farm Admin account.  I
    was able to do this way after we upgraded from SP 2007 to SP 2010 as well.   I would like to mention I'm not a SP expert, just been given the responsibility due to another person handling it just left, so apologize with some of
    my novice questions below?
    1. When I change the Operators to "Contains" or "Not Contains" get generates this error below.
         Error generating in red towards top of the audience page..."One or more values typed on this page are not valid.  Check the text for the indicated fields."
         Error occurred where you enter your "Value"..."Could not resolve the user identity. Please re-enter the account name."
    2. We have a 3-server-tier topology (SPWeb, SPDB, and SPFarm).  Does the updates only apply to where the Central Admin is installed, which is the "SPFarm"?  I checked all
    3 servers, and NONE of the updates (KB2899494, KB2889845, and KB2883055) you'd mentioned are installed.
    3. I'm new to IISRET, I need to be extra cautious of what I run in production, is this safe to run with no problem?  What does it do?  And How do I run it?
    4. I'm also new to viewing the ULS log.  I'd just downloaded a viewer for it.  I'm assuming the only logs I need to be concern with viewing are within the SPAdmin (where Central
    Admin is installed)?  There's so many of them, what should I be looking for exactly?

  • I rented a movie but it wont play.  Getting error message to try again later.

    I rented a movie but cant get it to play on my apple tv.  Getting error message to try again later.

    I have the same problem. Rented a movie, cannot get it to play. I don't seem to be having internet connection problems (sucessfully streaming HD content from Netflix right now on the same device) and I have rebooted and even reset the AppleTV device already with no improvement.
    Something going on in a data center somewhere at Apple tonight? This stuff used to work fine.

  • F.F. keeps telling me i need an ActiveX Plug-in but i can not find one for 3.5.11. This is the first time i have ever had a problem and totally lost here...please help. Jared

    I was going to add some new ringtones to my cell and in trying to listen to the samples i keep getting the Firefox needs to an ActiveX Plug-in would i like to be directed to where it is but nothing there matches....
    == This happened ==

    == Every time i have tried to go to site to review ring tones...

    Firefox, and most other browsers except IE, does not use ActiveX. See [[ActiveX]]
    You can try this add-on to see if it will allow you to listen to the ring tones by using IE's rendering engine in a Firefox tab:

  • I need to print my song list from a cd I just burned, but when I do it comes out all printed on top of each other and un readable.  I have done this lots of times, this is the first time I have had this happen

    I have burned a lot of cd's and always print the jewel case song list when I am done, but tonight I tried to so that and it prints, but all jumbled together and unreadable.  I have not changed anything on my printer and all the test pages print great, so don't know how to fix the problem in Itunes.

    There is another discussion of this problem under "can't print cd jewel case inserts"--about 20 people on that page have the same problem.--I have a "band-aid" fix for anyone is in a hurry.  When you go to print, choose the option "large playlist" (I think it is the last option).  You can then print at least the songs that are on the playlist.  Then, you can print a mosaic copy to get the album art work.  Then you get out the scotch tape & tape them together!  This is UNACCEPTABLE but it will do in a pinch. Someone on the other page suggests we all write in "itunes" feedback & complain.

    Hey Jeanette
    If you have a USB mouse handy, you can plug it in and use it to navigate to the Bluetooth settings in System Preferences to get the mouse to pair again. There are also troubleshooting steps in the article below for getting the mouse to pair as well.

  • I have tried to transfer files from my windows media player to my ipod but it saysthe device has stopped responding or stopped working.this is the first time ive connected nmy ipod to my new pc.any ideas?

    I have tried to transfer music from my windows 7 media player to my ipod.This is the first time i have tried to use my ipod on my new computer .In the media player it doesnt give me the option to add to itunes library it just give me the option to send to my ipod and when i do this it says that the device has stopped responding or isnt working.Any ideas? coz i aint got the foggiest where i am going wrong.My ipod keeps telling me to update the software,but then will i lose the music thats already on my ipod?

    You should import the music (that is listed in Windows Media Player) into your iTunes Library - on your computer - to add it to your existing iTunes Library. I take it you have moved (or copied) your music from the old computer to the new computer, haven't you?
    Then Sync your iPod to that Library.
    iPods will not respond to Windows Media Player, they're designed to connect to iTunes.

  • I can't no longer access Itunes.  Keep getting error message 127.  I tried uninstalling Itunes, but can't.  So frustrated.  Please help.

    I can't no longer access Itunes.  Keep getting error message 127.  I tried uninstalling Itunes, but can't.  So frustrated.  Please help.

    First, if you've moved the iPhoto library to an external drive, make sure that drive is mounted by opening it in the Finder.
    The issue can be caused by sharing the photo library on a network (against Apple's advice) or by opening it in more than one local user account at the same time. You may be able to clear the error by logging out or restarting the computer. If not, do as follows.
    Quit iPhoto if it's running, locally or on any file-sharing client. Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Usually it's in the Pictures folder, but you may have moved it somewhere else. Right-click or control-click the library icon and select
              Show Package Contents
    from the popup menu. In the folder that opens, navigate to
    Database/apdb/lockfile.pid
    and move that file, if it exists, to the Trash. Close the Finder window.

  • I erased my HD. Now I can't instal mountain lion from my bootable flash drive, and keep getting "installation error. Try again."

    I bought  mountain lion, made a bootable flash drive.
    I booted from it and it went to upgrading right away!
    So I stopped it and went to my former recovery partition I erased my HD because I wanted a clean start.
    Now I can't instal mountain lion from the bootable flash drive, and keep getting "installation error. Try again."
    and there is no 4 choices window.
    I don't know what to do.

    How did you create the USB install thumb drive? If it was with Disk Utility I have run into this problem and have since used THIS program to make the USB install drive.
    As to your problem you only have one option and that is to Reinstall the Original OS X version that came on your computer or if you still have the Lion Recovery Partition use that to reinstall Lion. Or if you system came with Lion and you have No Lion Recovery HD Partition you can boot the system from over the internet and Reinstall Lion.
    At startup hold down the Command+Option+r keys until you saa a spinning Globe in the center of the screen. Once that loads Repartition the drive as One partition and then reinstall Lion.

    Great, that's what I was looking for.  Thanks for the quick response.  I knew that that feature existed in this router, but I couldn't remember what it was called or where to find it.
    The funny thing is, I recall distinctly setting up the DHCP reservation initially, but when I went to check it now, the reserved client list was empty.  I have no idea how it could have become depopulated, thus opening the door for internal IP address reassignment of the Remote Desktop computer which led to the RDP ports no longer being forwarded to the right internal IP address and thus the failure of the Remote Desktop connectivity.
