I am running safari 7.0.6 with IOS 10.9.4. after the mac has been asleep and I log on I cannot open safari as it appears to have crashed. the workaround to this is to reboot the IOS and log back in after which safari will open. Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful. -

My HD has been replaced and when backing up from my time machine the transferred got interrupted
My HD has been replaced and when backing up from my time machine the transferred got interrupted. When Mac book booted only half the data. So I erased the hard drive to start again although I now can't restore from my time machine as its saying not enough space on HD to restore. Please help coz I'm freaking out!
I seriously doubt that you can do that. I've never heard of anyone doing something like this. I also strongly suspect that that windows software didn't preserve all the resource fork, ownership and hard links correctly.
You are left with manual migration of your data back to your computer. this isn't as hard as you make it sound. You just need to copy you own stuff back. also use the following [post|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6185507] to migrate important parts of you user library, Mail, iphoto etc. You will have to reinstall your applications by hand. -

I try to download the newest version of iTunes, but get the following message: "Install iTunes.pkg". This package type requires Mac OS X 10.5." What do I do now?
I have Mac OS X 10.4.11, and don't know how to upgrade to 10.5.Here are ways to update to Lion (Mac OS X 10.7):
http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/
It requires you to have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) installed, which can be obtained from the Apple Store.
You being on Mac OS X 10.4 makes it an old system, 10.6 and 10.7 require an Intel processor at least with Lion demanding an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor.
What system do you have? -
I have an iMac that has been updated to Mac OS X 10.6.8. When I purchased the computer, it came with Mac OS X 10.5.6. Will I be able to use Boot Camp 3.0.4 to install Windows without a physical disk of Mac OS X 10.6 or later? Could I get around that if I've backed everything up to Time Capsule? How do I take care of any drivers I may need?
Thanks!Hi,
you need the OSX Snow Leopard Install DVD since it is the only valid source of the BootCamp Drivers.
The 3.0 version of the BootCamp Drivers is only avaiable on the disc.
Later updates (3.1 and 3.2) can then be downloaded from Apples Support website but require that the 3.0 drivers are already installed.
Easiest solution IMHO is to buy a retail OSX Snow Leopard disc for USD 29.
Btw. the seller of your Mac should have included the install disc for the OSX that is on the harddisk.

my ipad haas been disabled and whe connected to the computer it is recognised as a camera,plus it does not appear under itunes devices,i really want to get it working,what is the solution to this,thanks in advance
Hello popsicles,
This first article should be helpful in getting iTunes to recognize your iPad once more:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If the device is still disabled once it's appeared in iTunes again, please reference this second article:

When flash player stopped working the image came up and said I needed to update flash player. I have a 64 bit W7 computer and Adobe installed v11-64mss. When checking the plug-ins, Firefox still says my flash player is out of date.
Are you downloading it directly from Adobe - of from the site where you get the error message?
Never download from a third party site as you may get an older version or a corrupted version.
