When all else fails (it sounds like it has) hold the power button for about 10 seconds. This shuts down the computer. Then tap it to restart. Since it sounds like the OS upgrade began but then failed to perform a restart you may find that the Install Mavericks file is still in the Applications folder and you can try again. Or you might find that you have to redownload. I don't think the installation is going to proceed as if the computer had successfully restarted but I could be wrong (and in this case gladly so for your sake.)

My daughter is 13 yrs old. She was born in August 1997. When I tried to set up her itunes account, I mistakenly typed in the year of my son's birthday which is 1999....which would make her too young. When I tried to create the account again, with the correct year of 1997, it is giving me a message that it "does not meet the minimum age requirements". But it does. What do I do to fix this? I got her the Ipod for her birthday and haven't given it to her yet and I wanted to get some songs on it for her before I gave it to her. What can I do?
Then I have no idea what to say (you did change names and dates I assume?)

Open actvitiy monitor and look for Safari, double click on it and force quit the applicaction. What do you mean some porgrams won't run on the Chrome browser? Hope this helps.

I have a macbook from early 2008, and when I sign onto safari I get an error message for fast browser search plugin. After that error comes up my computer freezes and I have to force it to shut down. Does anyone know what that means and how I can fix it?
Means you have an incompatible Safari extension installed. Look in the /Home/Library/Safari/Extensions/ folder for the offending plug-in and delete it.

My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?
It depends on what iPhone you have.
If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

MY hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. Now when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes it says that I have to replace the old library (that is lost forever) with the new library to sync. I do not want to lose all the songs on my iPod! What can I do?
Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Why won't this song play even after I authorized the computer? It says that I need to authorize the computer, then I enter my username and password and it says the computer is already authorized. But then the song still won't play. What do I do?
Use the Apple ID support -> http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/ - click through the contact information and select the iTunes, etc., hot button. You can have Apple call you or email them.

My iPad will not let me log into iTunes because it says that there is an un excepted server, and I don't know what to do
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

Deauthorizing iTunes on a computer? My laptop won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I'm authorized on too many computers, but when I try to de-authorize another computer I use it won't let me. What's up?
What do you mean it won't let you? What exactly does it say? (Sorry to sound so exasperated but this is like the 6th post in a row where people have made vague statements which do little to help us find solutions without a game of 20 questions.) I'm going to guess and say you can only deauthorize a computer to which you have physical access or VPN login. The alternative is to deauthorize all which you can only do once a year.

When I go to post on a google blog and it asks me to sign in, I get a message that says that my cookies fuctionality is turned off, but when I go to firefox, to preferences and privacy, "accept cookies from sites until they expire" is checked. I don't understand why I am getting this google message which is preventing me from posting, as it seems that the cookies functionality is properly turned on.

My mail application is canceling my shut down request. Can anyone help?
When I try to shutdown or restart my Macbook I receive a message saying that the mail application has canceled my request. This is despite me having already quit the mail application. After I receive this message the mail application starts up again. I have tried using "force quit" to fully quit the mail application, but get the same result. I haven't been able to shut down my Macbook for a couple of days. Has anyone any idea of what's happening?
Tomfromblackrock, if you're Activity Monitor does not indicate that Mail is "Not Responding" then I suggest you hold down the power button on your machine until it powers down. I have had this problem, too and that is the only way I have been able to shut down.
My email account was hacked into and shut down by my provider until I changed my password. Ever since I have not been able to close Mail or shut down my machine. Also, when I do this extreme shutdown I have found that Mail automatically launches upon restart. I do not have it designated to do so. I would love to know if your Mail program does the same thing. Good luck. -
Just changed my router to airport extreme
My MacBook pro and iPad work fine but my VAIO wireless desk computer is not working.
It says
, the router does not support the network .check security setting.
Which of the security setting will I change?
Thanks for your help.John, thanks for the email so quickly.
I too hope I haven't tried "everything" either but I am reasonably technical. I had done what you suggested to do before but I did both again.
Ethernet is yellow in the left side bar. In the right pane it's status says Connected but then below it says "Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet."
I have tried the assist me menu and Network Status has Ethernet Green, Network settings Yellow, ISP Green, and Internet and Server Red and Failed for both. I have turned things off and on, checked cables, deleted all locations and tried restting them up but to no avail. I even disconnected everything and connected the mac directly into the cable modem itself and the thing still will not connect.
