App problem on desktop.

I have downloaded an app from my iphone (3GS) to my desktop with the latest version of iTunes and OSX version 10.7. When I try to open this app in the desktop nothing happens, it just sits there.
Is there a way to get this app to play?

Thanks for that.
I am now even more confussed as to why apple allow the apps to de downloaded onto the desktop if they are unable to work.

HT202159 Problem with Update on It started, then the screen went white and the icons for the apps on the desktop were all blackened, 'waiting'. What now?

It showed a number of apps to be updated on my iPad, so I clicked 'update all' as usual. It started, then the screen went white. The icons for the apps on the desktop went black, as they do, with the first one half way around the little circle timer, and two marked 'waiting', with others not that far into the process. They all stopped. Now I can't stop the update process in the App Store, or use any of the apps. What do I do next? Help, please!

Hello there, Rev Susi.
From what I can gather you have a few apps that only display "Waiting". The following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue, the answer may help you as well:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Looking for app to create Desktop groups/fences for OSX

Looking for app to create Desktop groups/fences for OSX..
I do music and like to keep my most important folders on my Desktop since I access them very frequently.. I saw that there's a few options out there like "Desktop Groups Lite" (link below):
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id561422617?mt=12
The only problem is that I'm reading a lot of reviews on it from users who are saying that their files/folders are going completely missing, etc.. And that's a big issue that I'm not ready to deal with, considering the importance of these folders to my work/career..
^This is a picture of what that "Desktop Groups Lite" app looks like.. and is pretty much EXACTLY what I'm looking for.. but I'm a little bit afraid of it "eating" my contents and losing them forever..
Does anybody have any recommendations or feedback for an app that can accomplish something like this?
Thanks!

After upgrading to Mavericks I can no longer drag an app from one desktop to another.

On Mountain Lion I could move apps from one desktop to the other by simple dragging them to the right which would transition to the next desktop. Now the only way I can do it is to use mission control. Anyone else seeing this?

I actually have the same problem, since I upgraded to Mavericks my MacBook Pro can't seem to find the Bose sounddock 10. Has anyone found a solution to this.
It still works with the iPhone 5
Thank you

Hi snattem,
Kindly try the steps mentioned below.
Use cleaner tool to clean the remains of creative cloud : Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Install creative cloud again : Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps.
If the problem persists,

Drag and Drop file FROM Java app TO native desktop

I'm a litte new to Drag and Drop. After a few days of looking around I've been through enough examples to copy and paste some skeleton code and get it working in my own application.
What I haven't gotten any answers to (after searching on google, newsgroups, and here) is if it's possible to drag something from a Java app to the desktop or file browser, and have java create a file there.
I know you can drag text to native apps, so I was wondering if you could make a Transferable object that's different than StringSelection(), like a file stream or something.
Thanks,
Tristan

Tristan,
I am stuck in the same place. Perhaps we could work on this together.
I am trying to drag a single item from a JList to a text editor, Word, etc. I have two problems:
1) I can't seem to get just the item in the JList to drag. It wants to drag the entire JList component.
2) How does one define the remote application as the drop target? Have not found any examples either.
Is the drop target actually the system clipboard?

When I'm using Safari, acasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! ???

When I'm using Safari, ocasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! What the ****? Please help!

Right, like I'm trying to say, THERE IS NO SAFARI MENU bar. Example: I have multiple applications open, I click on a Photoshop window, the correct menu or title bar or whatever changes. Every other application window I click on brings up the correct "whatever" bar. If I click on the desktop, the "Finder Bar" shows up.
Everythiing else, BUT SAFARI, works the same way since OS X came out. This is ridiculous.
I'm getting the vibe that Apple is trying to get rid of the finder.... this is the way wrong direction.

BB 9790 firmware download problem via Desktop software

Hi , i am using desktop software to download firmware 7.1 for BB 9790 and i always have a problem of the firmware download bombing out at around 95 percent of the total download, and the error says my i must check my internet but there is nothing wrong with my internet.
i have loaded the latest Desktop software but still get the same error, Help!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
You can bypass the Desktop Software automated download by, outside of the Desktop Software, first downloading, from the official download portal, the OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/apps-and-software/desktop-and-device-download-sites.html
Then, install that package to your PC. (If the package is from other than your carrier, you will need to delete the VENDOR.XML files.) Now run the Desktop Software and it should offer you this specific BB OS update.
Good luck!

I have bought creative cloud subscription but it will not download app onto y desktop

i have bought creative cloud subscription but it will not download app onto my desktop.
Can anyone help me?

We cannot know. Even calling your post would be an exaggeration/ understatement, depending on how you want to see it. We need hard technical facts - operating system, computer specs, what is the exact error/ problem and so on.

Mail app problem

My wife and I have seperate user accounts on the macbook. When I ran the mail app in her account it asked for some set up info, which we entered based on what was being used in her imac. Didn't do much with it for a day or two and then when I came back to it I was unable to connect to the defined POP server (Connection Doctor window showed POP login failing). After fiddling around a bit with no success I decided to delete the mail account info (via the - button from mail->preferences->acounts) and create a new one. The account info appeared to be deleted then but we got a multicolored spinning wheel that woudl not go away and ultimately had to force quit the mail app. Now when the mail app is launched all we get is the spinning wheel and all we can do is force quit the mail app. I tried to find out how to run the mail setup assistant again but could not find any info on how to run it or where to find it. All I found was info that said it would run the first time mail app was run.
Dose anyone have any pointers or know what I should do to resolve this mail app problem?
Thanks
Craig

There are several threads on this in the forums. Search for "Mail spinning beach ball."
Essentially, there is something wrong with the Mail folder in ~/Library/Mail/. Move the Mail folder to the desktop and restart Mail. It will create a new Mail folder. You can then import anything that was in the old mailboxes.

OSX now crashes every hour. OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly. No obvious reason or trigger

OSX now crashes every hour. For no obvious reason or trigger, suddenly OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly, before the whole thing hangs and needs a hard reboot.
It is not apparent what I do to provoke the crash -- it happens while I am in seemingly any application, sometimes just reading a page and not taking any actions.
This started happening very suddenly two days ago. It might have happened around the time I updated ITunes but I'm not sure of this at all. And I never use ITunes or have it open.
Don't know how to diagnose the problem since nothing is accessible whence it freezes up on me. I tried software update, but problem continued after. Would appreciate troubleshooting advice. Thanks!

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

IPad app problems it won't. Let me download apps.it says check billing info I check everything number by number letter by letter

iPad version 4.2.1 app problems it won't. Let me download apps.it says check billing info I check everything number by number letter by letter it still won't work everything on my billing is correct

If you had money in your account when you purchased a paid app and Apple didn't claim on the payment to your bank until after the download it maybe that there was insufficient balancce in your account to complete the purchase and therefore you'll need to wait until you have the funds to make the payment, when you have billing issues it won't even let you download free apps.
If that isn't the case then give iTunes store a call or email them and they can tell you exactly what is wrong with the account

You're welocme
Depending on the size of the app or the connection speed when using Wi-Fi it could take a little longer to download. You can also try to download it onto your computer, might be faster, and sync it to the phone after that.
