I am trying to add my brother printer series HL-2270DW, but I keep getting an error message that the software is currently when it tries to install it.

I am trying to add my brother printer series HL-2270DW, but I keep getting an error message that the software is currently unavailable. How do I fix this?

I am also having this same problem. I have updated my computer. I have downloaded the complete brother driver package from Apple as well as the drivers from Brother. As far as I can tell, all have been installed successfully. It is only when I try to ADD the printer do I get that message. Both my roomate and I have Macbook Airs so we cant use the disk which came with the printer. This is irrelivant anyway as the drivers have been successfully downloaded and installed. SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!

Please give a bit more system details. Which OS and version are you on? Is it 32 bit or 64 bit. Try downloading the Creative Cloud App if not already installed from: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud. You can choose to install PS from withing this app and need not rely on web page.

HT1766 I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!! HELP! iCloud backup/restore did not work

I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!! HELP! iCloud backup/restore did not work either! How can I resolve this problem to restore from back up.

If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

I-Photo won't open even though I have upgraded to OS X Yosemite and downloaded the I-Photo upgrader. The upgrades indicate they were successful but I still get an error message when I try to open I-Photo telling me I need to prepare the library

I-Photo won't open even though I have upgraded to OS X Yosemite and downloaded the I-Photo upgrader.
But have you run the the iPhoto Library upgrader? It is installed in Applications > Utilities. Launch it and direct it to your iPhoto library.
Which version of iPhoto did you upgrade from?
The upgrader is only necessary, if you have been running iPhoto7.1.2 or earlier.

TS3771 I have a podcast that will not play in 64 bit iTunes. I checked the box to open in 32 bit but now I get an error stating that iTunes needs 64 bit and quits the application. How can I get iTunes 11.1.4 to open in 32 bit so i can view this podcast in

I have checked the 32 bit box in my iTunes (Finder, iTunes.app, Get Info) so I can view a video podcast but now iTunes will not open. I get an error stating that it needs to be 64 bit and the application quits. How can I get my iTunes 11.1.4 to run in 32 bit mode so I can watch my podcasts?

Is it safe to update my iPhone to IOS 5? I have backed it up, synced it, and transferred my purchases but I still get the error message...

So, yes. Backed up, synced, and I have all my purchases transferred... The thing is, I just got a MacBook Pro for my birthday, and I get the error message saying "Updating to iOS 5.1.1 will delete all of the apps and media, including iTunes Store purchases, on your iPhone. To preserve your content, apply this update on the computer where you sync apps, music, videos, and photos.. "
The computer I had been previously using simply would not recognise that iOS5 was available (it was a Windows PC; this is my first apple computer.)
So... Is it safe to update it?
What would I have to do to qualify this laptop as the "computer where I normally sync"?

If everything is on your computer, as it should be, then you are safe.
Not sure what you want.
Your iphone simply mirros the selected content of your computer. If all of your content is on your computer, then it will be on your iphone.

I can't open the new "Purchased" feature in the store. I've downloaded the latest Safari, but I keep getting the error message that the latest Safari has to be downloaded. Anyone have any solutions or have ran into this problem?

I can't open the new "Purchased" feature. I've downloaded the new Safari, but Itunes doesn't recognize that I have. Any help?

You downloaded Safari on your iPhone? And you are getting this error message on your iPhone?

I'm trying to redeem my digital copies by inserting the disk and entering in my code, but I keep getting an error message that says "An error occurred while copying "*movie* from the DVD to your computer- the required disk cannot be found"

I don't know what is going on, I have tried this with several movies as we got a few for Christmas and I keep getting the same error message- I will admit that my MAC is a couple of years old, so I wonder if it is a hardware problem with my disk drive- the error message has a smaller type message saying to check the DVD for dirt or damage and try it again, but the disks are all brand new with nothing on them at all- I have already experienced trying to get a digital copy when it has expired (stupid movie companies) and they wouldnt' let me redeem it, I worry that I will have the same problem if I wait too long to get these movies...

Getting an error message that I need to be on my computer to download free trial?

I am using my computer so I don't understand this error message. I looked this up on the FAQs and there was another question like this, but never answered.

Thank you Jacob. I was going in circles in the forums trying to find the answer but finally had to contact Adobe help in chat. The answer was that I needed to download the creative cloud FIRST and in INTERNET EXPLORER (I tried with Chrome and FireFox). Once the Creative Cloud dashboard was downloaded successfully, there are choices of apps to download within that.

My computer says it's authorized, but i still get an error message that i need to authorize it.
