Can someone steal my info from the extensions folder?

Some kid is asking me to copy my extensions folder to fix some corrupt files he has.
We are both running 10.7.2. I just don't want to be giving out important information here such as logins, keychains, cc info, etc.
Any info would be appreciated.

I've never scanned that folder for what it contains, but I doubt it would have anything personal.
However, unless your Macs are identical, they may not work on his Mac. Tony's advice is the most correct.
It won't take long (on a reasonable internet connection) and it won't affect any other files on his computer.
Unless he knows he personnally corrupted those files, he is likely chasing his tail. It would be very difficult for those files to become corrupt on their own as they are not rewritten to disk.

Can't open Mini Bridge because the Extensions are not supported in PS CC Aug 2014

OS X 10.9.4 Ps CC Aug 2014. There's File > Browse with Bridge and no File > Browse with Mini Bridge chance. Neither can I open Mini Bridge from the Extensions panel, because Window > Extensions (not active). Adobe Extensions Manager CC is blind. HELP please

To my knowledge mini bridge is no longer supported.
You can run the full version of bridge which would be running anyway for mini bridge to work, then use that to view or open files.

How can I stop Firefox asking to install things from its extension folder every time it starts up?

This happens with both versions of Firefox 3.6.28 and 22. (I have removed the latest version because I had so much trouble with it and no, I don't want it back and I am fully aware of the dangers the old versions put me in, thank you!) I have tried to delete the things from the extension folder, but the items it is asking to install aren't in there.
I am using XP with SP3.

This can happen if you use the same profile folder with different Firefox versions (i.e. the version listed in compatibility.ini is different).<br />
You should always use separate profiles for each Firefox version.
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla/Multiple_Firefox_Profiles
It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled or not compatible extensions in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left end side of the Search Bar to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this hasn't helped then also delete the addons.sqlite file.

My computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library?

my computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone 3g is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library without losing everything? How do I delete old audiobooks from my iphone?

You can transfer itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.

The voicemail system used for the iPhone is different from the voicemail system used on the rest of the Verizon Wireless network. When you activate the iPhone, you lose your saved voicemails from the other system. When you activate a non-iphone, you lose any saved voicemails from the iPhone voicemail system too.

Excuse my English, I am French writing from Paris, France
Thanks

All you need, if you've the non-Retina model, is a FireWire 400 to FireWire 800 cable -> such as this one from Amazon.
I know that there's a UK Amazon - can you order from there? Or is there a French Amazon as well?
Good luck,

Why can't it be accepted?
What is "it"?
If help is desired, stop being vague.

Hello, Robke100.
I would recommend trying the steps in the article below.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Once these steps are processed, attempt to accept the terms and conditions.
Also, you can make a purchase via the iTunes Store on the computer. This should allow you to bypass accepting the terms and conditions on the device.
Cheers,

HT201412 My new 4S phone:"Siri could not download required info from the server." What does that mean and how can I get it to work?

Just got the 4S. I cannot get Siri to work. It says it cannot retrieve info from the server. What does that mean and how can I fix it to use it?

Siri always contacts her own server at apple. They may be performing maintenance or applying updates, should be back soon.

Is this a company email account? If so you may need to talk their technical support, as there may be additional layers of security which are preventing a connection.

Why can't I select "get info" from the file area so I can change the setting to "open in 32-bit mode" ?

It may be because of your settings. You can modify that setting in System Preferences > Trackpad. Another way of making right-click is to click the app icon while holding the Control key

Just bought a Macbook Pro. I want a clean install so won't use a Time Machine backup but how can I install the software I bought from Apple Store? can I just delete it from the old machine that is going to someone else?

The ne
The new machine has Mavericks which is fine. And I will leave it as is. I don’t want anything from my old machine other than 2 apps that I will need on the new one. I want to be able to install those apps that I bought from the App Store onto my new computer. I assume Apple doesn’t want me to have the apps installed on 2 machines at the same time so I wonder if just uninstalling them from my old machine will release them for re-install on the new one.

What happens when you try to buy them, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help (we are fellow users on these forums, we won't know why the message is appearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If it's a different problem ... ?

How can I erase deleted items from the hard drive?

How can I erase deleted files from the hard drive? Will my machine run faster?

If you've already deleted the files and emptied the Trash they are already, in effect, erased. At least the disk space they occupied is now available.
To be able to offer help we need more information about which Mac you have, which OS you are running, how much RAM you have installed, how much hard disk space you have available, etc.
Go to the Apple Menu>About this Mac - copy and paste the contents of the report here (deleting the serial number of your machine). Once we have that info, I'm sure someone will have some suggestions.
