App Store claims update for app I never purchased and then switches me to a russian account. When I try to buy with my account i get an unknown error. How can I fix this?
When I opened the Mac App Store on my White MacBook(2010 model running Lion), it told me I had an update for Angry Birds. I never bought the original Angry Birds for Mac, so I decided I'd buy it because I enjoyed it on the iPad. When I clicked buy, it had my email switched to a russian one and when I tried to buy the app on my account, I got an unknown error (4). I can buy other items on my account, but when I try Angry Birds it always returns the error. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
edit: Sorry! Found the answer on a related discussion.
i have this too -- it's from trying to install pirated sw. I have no idea how to fix it -- even trying to buy a legot copy gives an error in the app store.

Vtok video chatting is not working on my iphone 4s. When I try to do a video chat with my gmail chat contacts who are using a PC we each only get the voice part of the chat and no video. Is there some way to fix this or is there another program that will let me video chat with my gmail chat contacts? Thank you.
You can not merge accounts.

When I try to open anything in Firefox I get innumerable ads. How can I prevent this.
Even trying to get this far I have had to close down at least 20 promotional sites - I have tried deleting and reinstalling Firefox but the ads still continue. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

I changed my mailto: to yahoo mail but now when I click an email link it has the mailto: and the subject both in the To: part of the email. I have to delete the incorrect data out. How can I fix this?
Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?
Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension: .html for a HTML backup and .json for a JSON backup.<br />
You can check that via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties.<br />
If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File"<br />
A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.<br />
A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":<br />
An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
You may need to add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension.

For the last year I have been unable to use my iPhone speakers because of some bug. I can play music and audio through headphones, but that's it. And just today even the headphones became spotty. I'll play a song (through iTunes) for a while, then the audio will just cut out. I can get it back by unplugging and replugging the headphones (sometimes multiple times) but that fix doesn't last long; usually within a few minutes (if not much sooner) the music cuts out again.

App Store sends updates for Apps I don't have.
App Store keeps offering me updates for Apps I don't have installed on my iMac.
e.g. Angry Birds.
If I click to Update I get a message "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID".
How do I remove the update and prevent further updates being offered?
iMac OSX 10.10.1Thank you for this information. I deleted a rogue App and it has solved the phantom updates appearing. However now App Store now seems to hang with the "circle of death" checking for updates. Could this be related to another topic I have raised:
Where is the Apps list in 12.1?
When connecting iTunes with an iPad or iPhone, the Apps page no longer lists the Apps installed on the device. It does however show all of the installed Apps in the screen facsimiles on the right hand side of the page. The Apps count top right of the page is also correct.
Could it be that both are trying to reach the App Store server?
Internet connectivity is fine for other applications on the same iMac and for all devices I have connected to the internet via WiFi. -
how do i fix this . easy steps please. Sorry I just keep having trouble with this and im getting very frustrated.
With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), cassi, the following Microsoft document is worth a try:
