  • My iphone died,and when i try to restore i get an error message,what can i do

    PLEASE HELP ME! My iphone 4 dies,I cant restore it,I get an error message

    If you don't tell us what the error message is, we can't reasonably offer much in the way of intelligent suggestions.

  • I can't do anything with my computer 'cause the error messages. what can i do?

    I've already got my printer to a technician, but he couldn't find anything wrong. However every time I try to use my printer an ERROR messages show up - cartridge, paper, open etc. The messages come on and on. It useless to shut it. I can't work then I need to turn off the computer and the printer.

    Hard Reset – While printer is powered ON, pull
    the power cord from the printer then from the
    wall. After 30 seconds reconnect power to
    wall and printer. This will trigger a ‘dirty power
    up’ and restore the printer to a known good
    condition (if it is possible). No user settings
    are lost with a ‘hard reset’.
    This ‘Hard Reset’ is one of the most powerful
    tools to use when the printer hardware is not
    functioning properly!
    if not resolved, uninstall hp software &
    reinstall using latest  hp software from hp
    website.
    Although I am working on behalf of HP, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

    It is a mute point now. PSE12 finally failed to the point it locked up the MAC. I had to restore the MAC OS from backup to a point before the PSE12 update.
    The MAC now operates correctly and so does PSE12. I don't think I'll be updating PSE any time soon.

  • I have an iPhone 3GS and I restarted it. I have crossed my language, wifi, country and everything, but suddenly when I am done with that a message comes time after time "Activation error." What can I do?

    I have an iPhone 3GS and I restarted it. I have crossed my language, wifi, country and everything, but suddenly when I am done with that and it says "activating iPhone", a message comes time after time "Activation error." What can I do?

    Most activation errors happen because a phone has been previously hacked or jailbroken.  If this is the case, we cannot help you on this forum.  You'll have to look elsewhere for assistance.

  • Got an error message "You can't open the application iMovie because it may be damaged or incomplete"  What do I do next to try to fix?  Thanks.

    I tried accessing imovie after not using it for a long time and got an error message "You can't open the application iMovie because it is damaged or incomplete. I'm not sure how to go about addressing it.  Your suggestions would be very much apprecaited.

    Judging by your OSX, I presume that your iMac would have come with 2 installation discs.
    iMovie and all the iLife software will be on disc 2.
    Run the disc and re-install iMovie.
    After that, do a software update.,
    Best,

  • My home page is google and it works but when I open a new tab it displays an error message :Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.ht

    I've made sure a dozen times that my home page is set correctly, and when I hit the home button next to the search bar it works and takes me right to google BUT whenever i open a new tab i get the error that my page cannot load and the web url that it keeps trying to remember is in the error message:
    Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.html.
    of course the last dot is not the url anymore but the end of the sentence for the error message, but i don't ever use chrome ever on my laptop only my cell so what is going on????? help fix god please!!!!!!

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    What version of iPhoto do you have on the Macbook and on the iMac? What systems are you running on the Macbook and on the iMac?
    Does the message only refer to "a problem" or does it specify what it is?

  • Playing mp4 audio gives error message "Video can't be played because the file is corrupt"

    Playing a particular mp4 audio file directly from a website link gives error message "Video can't be played because the file is corrupt". However other mp4 audio files from this same website do work correctly. What can I do to get all the the mp4 audio files to play directly from the same website? I must have the correct plugins, etc. since the other files play. This file is not playing from YouTube, is it on the website.
    Thank you for your help.

    What is the link to the site and file in question?
    MP4 files should be handled by Firefox itself, not a plug-in.
    # Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
    # Click Plugins.
    # Set every plug-in to "Never Activate".
    # Try loading the file again. Is there any difference?
    You have two versions of Flash Player installed. Perform a clean installation of Flash Player as follows.
    # From the following page, save the uninstaller somewhere handy, like the desktop.

  • Safari won't start after showing an error message: Safari can't use the extension "Omnibar" because the extension is no longer valid.

    Since yesterday evening (19-01-2015) safari won't start. After clicking the safari application it shows an error message: Safari can't use the extension "Omnibar" because the extension is no longer valid.
    This message almost directly disappears whereupon the Problem Report opens. I've tried to find a solution on the web but without succes.
    I'm running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.1 and Safari version 8.0.2 on a:
    MacBook Pro (Retina 13-inch, Mid 2014)
    Processor 3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics Intel Iris 1536 MB
    Since I updated to Yosemite I've been having multiple problems. I already read a clean install will solve most of them. But till then I would love safari to work again.
    Thanks!

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
    You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
    If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
    After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

    Try  these troubleshooting steps.
    If that Article did not resolve it... then perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
    Be sure to make an appointment first...
    Note:
    That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.
