When i 'upgraded' to Mavericks, it locked me out and shut down my computer. now it won't print from my Epson Stylus CX3810. Epson doesn't have the driver to download and neither does the App store. Suggestions?

I'm having similar problems with my Epson Stylus DX5000. There was no in-built driver available (the generic old and new Stylus drivers didn't work), so downloaded the latest driver from Epson site. It shows as being available to print to, but just sends data to the print queue then job disappears.
I hope you're right C F McBlob, I could do with printing today but if there are new drivers available from November 5, then so be it.

How do I select and email a whole lot of photos on my iPad from my iPad emails? It seems I have to go into Email and then insert one photo at a time? Isn't there a way to select all in the photos and then email the batch.?
Actually, you can email up to 5 at a time from the Photos app. Select any more and the email share option will not appear.
If you explain why you need to email large numbers of photos, we might be able to offer an alternative. -

It does have numbers of course, they are made by first hitting the ` key (top most left most on a US keyboard) and then the usual number key. Have you tried that? Such combos often don't work in password fields, but you never know. -
Photoshop CS5 shuts down my computer whenever I use the marquis tools or eraser, or copy and drag something.
I just disabled open GL and went back to work on the thing that has been behind the latest crash - and it did not crash this time. So, I am guardedly hopeful, but might be back. Regardless, thank you for your advice.

Epson tech support made me print from iPhoto and it came out "better". But when printing opened in Photoshop, the skin looks brassy and weird. I have "Photoshop mmanages colors" checked. The thing used to print perfectly... What's up with this? I'm on OS 10.6.8. Driver is set right.
Have you used the Epson Printer Utility to clean the inkjet nozzles on your printer and then printed a nozzle check?
I've had good luck with the printer managing colors with either Epson Standard or Epson Vivid.

The window keeps popping us as if the power button is continually being pressed... however it's not. I've tried mashing the button a few times to see if I can get it unstuck but no luck. Ugh this is so annoying because even if I leave the message open and continue work on another window, it will refresh and become the active window again making me have to click to a different window again to repeat work. Typing this forum entry, for instance, was a pain in the butt because of this.
Probably has something to do with the coffee that was spilt on it a year ago... but I haven't had anyissues until now. Please advise, is there away to turn it off? any work arounds anyone knows of?
JohnnyCheck this or maybe the coffee has finally taken it's toll and you might want to take ot in to Apple.

If I paused my downloads and shut down my computer, will it still resume its progress?
I paused my downloads by 6:30AM before I went to sleep. It was a series of files and its nearly finished, I was hoping to continue it by noon since, the internet spikes high again by noon. Incidentally, one of my housemates used my laptop and didn't noticed that I was downloading something, so after his use, he shutted-down the laptop. I was wondering if my downloads will still continue, well I would actually know in a minute, hoping that you would be able to answer my question in a matter of time, like in a support agency, and lastly, if not, what would be the next updates in this matter. I'm actually wondering if this would be possible in the future, well I already know that nothing is impossible with technology but I'm just wondering WHEN will this be able to implement. That's all.
Firefox should be able to resume paused downloads, but the main determining factor is if those websites support resuming an interrupted download.
In the future you would be better off using an external download manager that has a feature to shutdown your computer when all downloads are complete, and let the download process continue unattended. -
I performed a software update and the system is installing an update but it has been running for over 24hrs and keeps saying "This may take a few minutes, don't shut down your computer" Can anyone help?
Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time. -

My Safari browser is stuck on a webpage "survey.tubgalley.xyz...." and there is a pop up with "Congratulations, you are today's lucky winner, Click OK to continue". ( I have not of course clicked on it!).

If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide, AdwareMedic, or Remove unwanted adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac - Apple Support.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware. -
I mistakenly opened an attached Word document in an email from someone whose name I knew, but then discovered it was someone else I didn't know apparently using that name. The document was about some "business proposal". I closed the document, deleted the email, and shut down my computer. The document was open on my computer for about two minutes. My question is whether opening this document might have exposed my computer and files to a virus or some other malware? What should I do now?
