    I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer in case it wipes everything .

    I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

  • My Creative Cloud icon is gone from the menu bar and the CC app will not open.

    My Creative Cloud icon is gone from the menu bar and the CC app will not open. I'm on OS 10.10.3. I've tried reinstalling and also various fixes suggested on this forum but to no avail. Incredibly frustrating to be paying monthly for a product that doesn't work.

  • My music app icon is missing from my home screen and I have to go through the search to find and use it. How do I get the icon back on my home screen

    (IOS 7 update trouble) My music app icon is missing from my home screen and I have to go through the search to find and use it. How do I get the icon back on my home screen

    Find which screen, folder it was moved to, and hold down the icon until the icons start shaking. Then drag it to the left or right edge of the screen, and it will allow you to move it to which ever screen you want it. When you have it there, tap the Home button to stop the icons form shaking.
    Or do what hannahsage said above.

  • I rented a movie and it downloaded but the movie skips and i can hear the words but the picture does not? and now the movie is gone from the library and i only rented it an hour ago? what do i do?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Firefox will not open at all. I tried to remove it from the programs to try to reinstall it but it wont let me remove it. So I tried to download again anyways and ff still wont open. My email is alicia@*****

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • HT1414 my apps are gone from the itunes store, whats up with that?

    will I have to purchase the ones I still want on my phone.  At least one of them was currupt since my battery was draining 10X the normal rate.  when I went to get my apps and choose the ones to put back on my phone they were not in my apple account.  My ringtones are gone also.
    does anyone know what apps drain the battery fast.  I really dont play any games.

    There is two ways you can do this with iOS 5,
    1. tap on App store icon, then purchased on the bottom menu, and download direct from iCloud.
    2. connect your iPad to computer and open iTunes if not already open. Select your iPad in the left
    column then choose the Apps tab and check each App you want on the iPad. If your iPad is connected to a power source and you use iTunes WiFi sync on the same WiFi, you can download Apps from iTunes without connecting your Ipad to the computer.

  • How do I change desktop folder/safari pictures to registered business icons, I have tried almost every how to  on-line but none are worki?  I have treing. First how do I get the icon I need from the website and then what?

    How do I change Mac desktop folder/safari pictures to registered business icons? I have tried almost everythin but none are working.  First how do I capture the business icon from the website, then what?

    OK, well to start with, you must have the icon file in the correct format. You need to end up with an .icns file. One of the how-to articles should tell you how to do this - iConvert will also do it.
    If it is in the correct format, when you click the icon file to highlight it, and click cmd-i, you will see the Get Info window - at the top left, you should see a mini version of the icon. If you do NOT see that icon correctly, the file is not the correct format. So this will not work for a jpg or png file, for example.
    Once you have this window open, go to the thumbnail, click it to highlight it blue, and click cmd-C to copy.
    Go to your Safari app from the Applications folder (not from the dock), again click cmd-i to open its Get Info window, and again click its icon to highlight it blue. Now click cmd-V to paste. You will be asked for your admin password to authenticate. The icon should now become the one you've pasted in.
    You may need to log out and back in for the effect to show on the application file itself.
    You might also want to look into Candybar if you plan on doing a lot of icon customization.

  • Is there a location aware wifi option (or app) that enables wifi at a specific location (home) and automatically disables it when you are away from the specified location?

    I manually turn off my wifi when leaving home for several reasons:
    1. I don't want my wifi to be on and constantly scanning wifi networks while I am away from home due to privacy reasons.  Many retail stores and airports are now tracking users based on their smartphone's wifi pings.  They can then store your phone's MAC address (the unique identifier of your phone) to determine how often you visit the store and where you go within the store.  It's just a matter of time before they match up your phone's MAC address with your credit card/payment info and then to your identity.  The only way to subvert this is to turn off your phone's wifi.
    2. For security reasons: Wifi access points can track devices that broadcast their wifi signal, even if they don't ever actually connect to the access point's network.  These access points can then store your device's details including your phone's MAC address.  Once your phone's MAC address is discovered, it can be targeted by a hacker.  In addition, there are multiple well known hacker tools that can be used to scan for smartphone wifi signals in order to detect and then hack your iphone.  Bottom line: if your wifi is discoverable, then your device is hackable.
    3. I believe it would save battery life if the iphone's wifi is not on and constantly scanning for networks all the time.
    There are other reasons as well, but the above are my 3 main reasons for asking about this.
    The reminders app is location aware - you can set reminders to alert you when you are at a specific location.  So, why not provide the option (or an app) to only enable wifi when you are at home - or any other location where you have an authorized or trusted wifi?
    As it is right now, the iphone's wifi is broadcasting 24/7 everywhere you go.  Not great for privacy & security.  When I turn off my wifi, the phone uses my 4G plan for data and GPS for location services... so wifi is not needed at all for data or location services while I am away from home (and no, wifi does not improve location accuracy, that is a fallacy... there is nothing within the wifi protocol that could ever improve location accuracy).  But the point is, wifi should have a location aware option.  Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before there is a headline story about how not having this feature is a huge security/privacy problem.

    Understood.  However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question.  It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point.  Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
    http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
    The point is that it's not  secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode.  It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office).  Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
    (1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
    (2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
    (3) Off.

  • Built a new pc. Old hd used as 2ndary & still the same as before. I loaded the new hd with firefox, plugged in the old hd, but the bookmarks are gone from all places (%APPDATA% etc). PLEASE HELP

    I have 2 hd's on a new pc (Win7), new hd as boot, old still completely intact from last pc. After installing Firefox on the new drive & plugging in the old drive as a backup, will that erase old bookmarks from original hd? If not, where did they go? There is no profile folder or appdata file. I have searched and tried everything suggested with no luck

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • HT4859 I used ICloud to get my OUTLOOK contacts in to our new IPad and now the Outlook calendar is fine on the PC BUT ALL MY CONTACTS (1200++) are gone from the PC but are in the Ipad. How do i get them back into my PC. Help.

    All my contacts are now in my lovely new IPad but they have been whisked out of my PC and I need them back. Is this possible-hope so??

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

  • Icon for i cloud suddenly disappeared from mail ?  Not a problem but just concerned that the icon should disappear from the listing for the iCloud e mail account

    I had previosly set up a number of IMAP e mail account in addiiton under my .mac and .me account which is my personal account.
    On the mail home page it had the inbox listing thee accounts and further down the page its used to list the on line accounts set up under I cloud using the same name as the .mac or .me accounts, but also included the i cloud icon as does my ipad.  Logged onto day and the i cloud icon had dissappeared?  not sure why it is still functioning and I still have all my icloud accounts set up but the icon is no longer present.
    Maybe just a bit anal but it bugs me to know why this icon has suddenly dissappeared?

    Hello,
    Do you use these settings in Mail for your Gmail account (especially for the SMTP) ?
    If you use IMAP and all your emails are still stored on the server you can delete your account in Mail and recreate it with the settings mentionned above.
    Hope this will help.

  • Where have all the HD movies gone from the iTunes store?

    Not been in for a while and decided to purchase a film but there doesn't seem to be an option to download in HD anymore. Have apple stopped doing this or am I being thick?

    In the US iTS you can get HD content. It might not be available to other countries iTS.
    From the iTS main window select 'Movies' - in the US iTS there is a drop down menu.
