3.0.4 sits there and does nothing on a mac mini
I upgraded to 10.4.11 along with the safari update. Now it just will not load any page, even bookmarks, it just sits there and does nothing. Also all my favicons have turned generic.
Ironically I'm writing this in Safari on windows on my boot camp partition.

Memory has not been a problem on anything except streaming. My brand new (4/18/2013) mac mini has the same problem and it has matched memory . Roku streams without a problem. My iPad streams over wireless without a problem, but if I want to watch ESPN3 or other streaming such as HULU or Netflix on my minis, both machines have a problem.
Another hint: Web sites with a lot of streaming data also hang up. To continue, I have to quit Safari and then restart it. Occasionally I have to reboot the whole system. Shades of Microsoft blue screens of my past.
If I don't get a solution for this soon, I see Windows 8 in my future or a return to cable/satellite tv. I hope someone can save me from those lousy alternatives. Thanks!!

By default you can only add M4V, MP4 and MOV files to iTunes. Simply drag and drop them into your library. If you have videos in other file formats (like AVI or MKV) you have to convert them one by one with a tool like HandBrake.
On Mac there are dedicated tools that will import videos for you, even without reconverting them. Additionally they will download artwork, put them in the Movies or TV Show category, etc. But I don't know if such tools exist for windows. -

I downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, and now the iTunes store won't open. It just sits there and says 'accessing iTunes store for hours, but does nothing.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES>Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Downloaded installer just sits in memory and does nothing
iTunes had permission issues and would not start up, I tried to uninstall itunes, and download version 11.0.1,
but upon downloading the installer, it starts up, but it just sits there in memory, and does nothing.
I am using windows 8, and a HP PC with a Intel 6 core processorI found my problem. The iPad had apparently been synced with a different iTunes library (our family has three). We never intentionally synced it to another library, but when I did the iOS 6 update (from 4.3), I think that I may have been logged into a different ID.
While logged into the 'right' library in iTunes, when I selected the iPad device in the Sidebar (on the left), and then selected "Music" in the button bar along the top, I found that the "Sync Music" box was not checked. I checked that. Then when I hit 'sync', I got a message saying that this iPad is synced to a different library and asking if I wanted to lose that sync and establish the new one. I said 'yes', and now things appear to be syncing.
In my earlier trevails (described in the question), iTunes could easily have warned me that I was logged into one library, but trying to sync with an iPad that was previously synced with a different library. Instead, it silently 'finished' the sync without running it. AWESOME software design!!
I love Apple's device design. I think their software design, which seems to be all tangled up with Digital Rights Management, is too confusing. There needs to be a way to make the model (the mix of multiple libraries and multiple devices) more apparent to the user. -
I have a web site built by Yahoo Web Site Builder which does not have a Mac version, is there any compatability between Iweb and the old Yahoo program? If not how do I clear off the old site so as to re publish with Iweb.
iWeb cannot import published files so you would need rebuild the site.
Yahoo hosting is notoriously poor and their tech support is awful. I would suggest you look for new hosting and start afresh. Some pointers for choosing hosting...

If you do choose to go this route, transfer your domain name registration away from Yahoo to your new host. -
I downloaded garage band on my iPad ages ago but now it just says waiting and when I click on it it just says "retry" and does nothing. I've spent literally ages making songs (I've got like 20 ). How can I get it back with all my songs still there?
Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks -
My iPhone 4S won't connect to wifi. It won't light up for me to slid on. And the few times it does light up, it just sits there and loads and loads.
Hi there Ashton1334!
I have a couple of articles here for you that may address your issue. It seems like from your description that this article is going to be the most relevant, and it deals with Wi-Fi settings being greyed out or dim:

The other article that you may find useful can be found right here:

Hi Alcrouchy,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are describing. If the screen appears to be sliding downward (leaving a blank portion at the top), you may be seeing the Reachability feature of iOS 8 on the iPhone 6/6 Plus. It is intended to make it easier to reach elements towards the top of the screen on the larger iPhones, and is activated by a double tap (not press) on the Home button. There is a bit more about it on this Design page about the iPhone 6:

After updating to mavericks, facebook will only load once in a while. The blue bar goes part way and just stops and does nothing. Never had this problem before. So far facebook is the only site I have had a problem with.

I just installed iTunes 10 and all it does when I open it up is show me the software license agreement, and if I click either "accept" or "decline" it closes up and does nothing else. It does the same thing when I try to play mp3 files, just opens up the license agreement and nothing else. It also doesn't recognise my iPod touch when I plug it in, thinks it's a digital camera. Please help! (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

When i tap "update" on an app, or try and download a new app i get the loading wheel for around a second then it goes back to showing "update" and does nothing. Any solutions for this? This is relevant to an iPhone 5S running iOS 8
If you're really running iOS 8, you should be posting in the Developer's Forum, as you well know since you signed an NDA when you signed up for the Developer's program.
