I have used Firefox for years on my Mac laptop for years, I tried to update to version 4 and now I have no Firefox and every time I download the the Firefox the emblem has a awhite circle with a cross through it, so I can't drag it to applications.

The support page is ridiculous, it assumes you already have Firefox and that the install went fine. I am having trouble with an update to Version 4. I have an ibook G4 running OS X. I have used Firefox for years. When I downloaded the update, the Firefox logo thing that you are supposed to drag to the Applications folder has a white circle with a line through it. I have rebooted many times and have updated all other software.

Hello,
I wouldn't trust any Firefox "update" from a non-Mozilla website. Sometimes, unofficial builds contain adware or malware. If you want to use Firefox for AOL do so at your own risk.

While attempting to upgrade to Firefox 4, when prompted to drag icon to Applications, the Firefox icon has a white circle with a line through it, why?

Hello puma1552,
Are you referring to the *Do Not Disconnect* screen display while your iPod is plugged into and syncing with iTunes? Check out this Apple support document for its meaning and why you are receiving this icon. This icon always appears when you are syncing your iPod with iTunes. It's basically a warning message telling you that the iPod is currently in use and should not be removed.

Try to restore the iPod. Here's an article that provides troubleshooting for it.

If that doesn't work visit an Apple Store and see if they can replace it.

HD not booting. Circle with a cross through it

Hi Everyone.
I was getting an issue with system prefs and opted to restart my MBP.
After the start up sound, for a split second it showed the Apple logo followed by a circle with a cross through it.
Then it proceeded to boot up on my BootCamp windows partition. So I know the HD is working.
So, I started up the MBP with an external firewire drive that had an older complete copy of my drive from my OEM 500GB HD before my upgrade to a new 1TB drive. Then I ran Disk Utilities, verified that the Drive was OK, ran repair disk permissions and then did a Directory reconstruction with DiskWarrior. I hoped that all of the above would fix the problem. Alas, it is still not booting up from the 1TB drive.
With the external boot, I can see everything on the internal drive ok. I thought it may have been a resource fork, but I don't know now.
Anyone have any suggestions of what else I should look for?
My last resort will be to wipe the drive and rebuild from Time Machine, but a month has passed since my last back up ( so some stuff may be missed out).

If you want to see if you can recover data, see my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html#RECOVER
The fact that Disk Warrior can't fix the system folder, means there is serious file corruption, which may be as a result of all the issues with your System Preferences.
If you were using any other system optimization software, any that clean system caches should be avoided. They can make System Preferences and the rest of the system misbehave because corrupted system cache files can make applications have a hard time starting up.

A red circle with a cross through it

Whenever I try to click on the music tab in my itunes library, a symbol of a red circle with a cross through-it comes up against my cursor and i am unable to click through into my library. this happens whenever I'm trying to go back to my library after browsing in the itunes store. if anyone could help, it'd be much appreciated.
thanks

I too am having this issue since I installed latest version. I've tried importing all of my music again, as well as reinstalling 10.5.0.142. I am able to play "Genius Mixes" but cannot view my music library or playlists. Cannot view TV Shows or Movies but can view apps.

I tried to update my ipad3..now I have the dreaded red bleeping screen of death... it is literaly bleeping on and off. I can't turn the ipad off and I can't do anything else either. Any thoughts?

it is literaly bleeping on and off. I can't turn the ipad off and I can't do anything else either. Any thoughts?
I plugged it into my laptop and it still doesn't do anything but blip red.
I knew I should have waited to up date it until I got back. everytime i try to update one of my ipads, something goes wrong.....
I really need my ipad back as I am going on a trip tomorrow morning and need my gps map on there.

I held down the sleep and home key to shut down the ipad.... it's restarting...hopefully this will work!

this has also happened when trying to add pictures on sites and it opens another window.It did not used to do this it is a problem i have come across lately and am not sure if it is since i updated firefox.pop up windows are set to allowed.i think it since i updated but could be a coincidence,as i may have updated some of the other spyware,pop up blocker sites,just never had this problem before?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Firefox updated automatically yesterday and since then, Mozilla Crash Reporter appears every time I try to open Firefox.

I've uninstalled and re installed, but nothing works. Plus, I'm not very tech savvy.

The type tool has a circle with a strike through on the bottom corner and won't insert words when iI type

I've just restored from a computer crash and re installed Creative Cloud 6 on my clean computer. Since then I've tried to use illustrator but can't get the type tool to function. It appears but has a small circle with a strike through on the bottom right corner and won't insert words when I type. I'm a newbie to illustrator and other Adobe products so please be gentle. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for your suggestion.
This was a bigger problem than I thought so I contacted support. The type issue was fixed in the repair.
BTW I am running Creative Cloud 2014 and not cc6 like I thought. Also on PC Windows 7
Here is the result:
I also have had a difficult time with Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 crashing upon launch. The support staff was great even though we had to work through several sessions. Below is the email explaining our final session.
This email is in regards with the issue you had been facing with Illustrator CC 2014.
While going through the installer logs, we found that there was an issue with the installation & the program installer had been denied access to several critical files & folders during installation.
This was the main reason for Illustrator crash as several critical components had not been installed properly.
We tried installing the program in a new user account & that worked.
Though the program has been installed properly now & is working in your old account, I will still strongly recommend you to get your computer user account repaired with a Windows 7 operating system diskette.
This is required so that you do not run into more trouble later while working with the Adobe Applications or even while installing other programs.
Avanish Divya was the final support person that successfully resolved my problems.
I hope this helps other panicked users.

Mac book pro stops responding after Maverick OS restart. Currently have a circle with a line through it after 20+ hours. Tried to shut it down and use the Time Machine to restore but no response. How can I restore with Time Machine if it will not start?

sonjadg,
you can purchase a replacement pair of grey installation DVDs for your MacBook Pro from either Apple or iFixit. If Startup Manager is only showing an OS X Installer volume, then it sounds like the Mavericks installer had a problem midway through its installation process. To fix this, you’re going to need to erase your internal disk and reïnstall your original version of OS X from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD, use Software Update to get it back to 10.6.8 (presuming that your MacBook Pro originally came with Snow Leopard), and then restore from Time Machine.

I have used Firefox for years on my Mac laptop for years, I tried to update to version 4 and now I have no Firefox and every time I download the the Firefox the emblem has a awhite circle with a cross through it, so I can't drag it to applications.
