After downloading firefox I can't open it because adobe says its damaged?
My laptop had a virus and I uninstalled firefox. After I got the virus removed, I tried reinstalling firefox, but after the download is complete, adobe says it cannot open it. Do I need to reinstall adobe, or is there another program I can use to open it?
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

I have the version of iPhoto that comes with my OS when I purchased my MacBook, but now I can't open it, because it says this, "You can’t open the application “iPhoto” because it may be damaged or incomplete. Please help I have tons of family photos.
1 - the iPhoto application is an application and does not hole your photos - your photos are in the iPhoto library an dour normal daily backup will back them up so your photos are safe
2 - what exactly does the error message say? You probably need to reinstall the iPhoto application form the original source
3 - note that no version of iPhoto comes with any OS - iPhoto comes with all new Macs but not with any OS and most OS versions can run many different versions of iPhoto

I've just bought an ebook but I can not open it because ADE says "Error! Check Activation".
Hi,
I need an urgent support. I've just bought an ebook (from FGV Editor) but I can not open it because a message box says "Error! Check Activation."
I follow all tutorial recommends about deactivate Windows Firewall for ADE program.. I deactivate the whole Windows firewall but I still have the same problem.
Please, whenever ADE support can help me. I still believe Adore Corp. reputation.
Cheers,
Fabio.Thanks! This worked for me. When you uninstall 4.0 and install 3.0 you will have to deauthorize and then reauthorize your account and reader (CTRL+SHIFT+D) and it should work. This saved me a lot of anguish.
You can find the old versions here: Adobe Digital Editions downloads -
I will start the process of downloading Firefox 4 and then get the message that my Adobe Reader can't open the file because it is damaged or sent through an e mail. I was not in my e mail when I tried to download the update. This isn't the first time that this has happened. I gave up downloading updates in the past just because I would encounter this same problem.
When you start the download, are you chooseing Save or Run?

I can't open iPhoto anymore because "it may be damaged or incomplete"? I'd been making folders of my albums & videos & moving them to an external hard drive. I have years of photo's & video still on iPhoto that I had not moved to the external hard drive yet. This problem started after I installed iDvd so I uninstalled it. Also tried to download older iPhoto updates to see if that would resolve the problem. No change - what do I try next?
1. Back up:
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
2. Reinstall:

For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.

/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always. -
Hi--I can't get itunes to open because it says "the file cannot be opened because it was created by a newer version of itunes." I have installed newest versions of Windows & itunes recently, as the troubleshooter instructed, to no avail...Help!!!
This error prevents iTunes from launching. The library file was modified to work with the newer iTunes version, so it is no longer compatible with the previous version. The good news, however, is that Apple does backup the iTunes library file into a subdirectory that you can use to revert back to the previous version.
To recover a previous version of the iTunes Library.itl file, use the following steps:
Open up your My Documents\My Music folder.
We will first backup the current version. Rename iTunes Library.itl to something like iTunes Library.itl.bak.
Go into the My Documents\My Music\Previous iTunes Libraries folder.
You may see several files that start with iTunes Library and have a date included in the name. Copy the newest file in the folder.
Go back to the My Documents\My Music and paste the file from the previous step.
Rename the new copied file to iTunes Library.itl.
Your library should now be restored to the previous version of iTunes, and you should no longer receive the message. -
I tried to upgrade and now can't open it because it may be damaged or incomplete
I followed a prompt to upgrade and now when I try to open with Firefox I get the following message. You cannot open Firefox because it may be damaged or incomplete. My old Firefox remembers userID's and passwords that I need. How can I retrieve this information?
* Download a new copy of the Firefox program.
* Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

How do I reload the software when the update software" doesn't fix itWelcome to the Apple Discussions. First make sure there's only one iPhoto library on your HD by launching iPhoto with the Option key depressed. In the next window there will be listed every library on your HD and any external HDs. If only one then close iPhoto and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all options.
Fix #2
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory. -

I'm trying to download firefox for my laptop...but when I start to download when it says who the file is coming from it does not say Mozilla or Firefox or anything familiar so I want to make sure I am on the right page and downloading the right thing so I don't invite a virus onto the laptop
If apps are popping up that need an update and it is the "friend's" Apple ID, those are apps that he downloaded to your iPad.
Anyway...Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Tap the ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID. -
i was just working on it-and my hard drive was pretty much full so i was about to delete some files to make room so i can save the document-but before i could do that, pages decided to auto save it for me but there was no room to save it, so it said could not save: revert changes. so i clicked revert changes and it said unable to revert, document must close or something like that and it closed the document for me. but i opened it again as normal and it opened again as normal.
so then i took a lot of my files off my laptop to make room to save it, but when i tried to save it, the same thing happened, but this time when i tried to open it as normal, it said it cant be open because it is a blank file when it so clearly isnt? is there anyway i can restore this because i dont see why my macbook is doing this to the file when i made room for it to be saved, and even when there wasnt room-my macbook saved it anyway. no thats theres room it says its blank and cant open- when i right click on it and click show package contents, it comes up with 3 items: data folder which is blank, index.zip file which it wont let me open to unzip, and a metadata folder which is also empty. please help, thank you.To change asccount information see:

After downloading quicktime, I can't open the application. It's nowhere to be found.
I have gone to the Quicktime website to update/download quicktime on my mac and after the installation is complete and the restart is done, I can't find quicktime in the applications folder (or open any videos in my iphoto). It seems that quicktime is not downloading to my applications? I don't know what the next step would be.
Quicktime 7 is on you OSX installation disc. It might be easier to download Quicktime 7 from Apples web site.

Updated firefox to latest version with custom install, no task bar or startup (in past I think I usually included startup) late Friday nite. Then when trying to open Firefox shortcut on desktop Sat. could not, would freeze up. Then if I tried to open IE same would happen. After rebooting a # of times, opened IE 1st and worked but still could not open Mozilla within IE or the desktop. Also all our 3 wireless laptops including apple have no problem with this.
You said you tried the recommended solution, but didn't mention what that solution was. Try, from the Firefox menu bar:
<br /><br />
Tools -> Options -> Content
where you will find an option to block pop-up windows. If that box is checked but there are sites from which you would like to allow pop-up, click the button "Exceptions..." to add sites to your exception list.

After downloading Yosemite, I can't open my iPhoto!!! Please help me!!!
I just downloaded Yosemite a few days ago and noticed that my iPhoto is not working. The message that comes up is "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete." so I waited for it to load but five hour later, it was not updated. Tried a few more times but it would not download and kept on telling me the same message. I don't know what to do and I'm getting frustrated. I need your help.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

TD
