Can't open iPhoto. I don't get an error message. When I launch the application it just hangs and the pointer just spins. I pressed option apple and rebuilt the library and thumbnails and it's still not working. Do I need to re-install?

If I do need to re-install how do I do this? I saved a back up of my iphoto library. Does this mean my photos are safe if I re-install. Help is much appreciated!

If you're getting a hang like this at opening
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

I can't open .pkg files. i get an error telling me to choose an application to open them. the Installer app is not in my Utilities folder or in System/Library/CoreServices.

Install the UnArchiver and try again.

There is no Installer.app in the Utilities or Applications folder, there is one in the System/Library/CoreServices.
If yours is not there, then you need to:
1: Backup your data off the machine to a non-TimeMachine drive and disconnect all drives.
2: If you have TM, try to restore the Installer.app from the TM drive and reboot. See if things work.
If the above doesn't work, your going to have to re-install just OS X 10.6 (and bundled programs) from the disk by holding c and booting off the 10.6 disk and simply installing OS X. Then software updating to 10.6.8.
This will replace all bundled programs and OS X, not touch your files (backup regardless) and most third party programs.
Some third party programs will have to be reinstalled form original sources because they install Kext files into OS X and thus kicked out by the 10.6 reinstall form disk.
All should go well, however if you boot to a gray screen or other freeze, reboot holding the shift key down, then update all your third party software to be current to 10.6.8.
Another method is to re-install in to CoreServices the Installer.app from the 10.6 disk using the extraction program called Pacifist from CharleSoft, then running software update to get any updates for Installer.app.

I don't get an error message when Nightly crashes.

Recently my browser has been crashing a lot, but I don't get any error reports or anything that asks me to send a report to Mozilla.
I use Nightly (64-bit) and I update automatically (currently 24.0a1). My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit). Telemetry, Nightly Health Report, and Crash Reporter are enabled. The last update was 2 hours before and the one before that was 2 days before. As of the last update, the crashing has stopped.
My concern is that there were at least 6 crashes recorded in the Reliability Monitor in the Control Panel within that time frame, but when I checked the AppData, there was only 1 submitted crash report, and no pending for that time frame. Should I be worried? Am I still sending in information?

I have a huge problem with nightly!! the problem is I can not remove it from my computer, every thing i did with it was very wavy and I was unable to see any thing single, every thing showed up more than 10Xs on every page, I tried to remove nightly and it refuses to be removed, I waited up to 3 hours for it to be removed and it is still on my computer, please help thanks from me.

Can someone tell me why we are getting this error message when users try to open?

It was created in LiveCycle and Reader Extensions were given before posting it to the website. Normally if you open in Firefox or IE, it will work (sometimes).

We would also really appreciate an answer to this question. We are having the exact same issue with some new forms we have created. They were created in Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES4, and then usage rights were extended in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
When this issue is encountered we send the old version of the form, it was created using the same process a number of years ago, so the only difference is that we were using older versions of both programs. The same recipients who have an issue with the new form are always able to open the old forms.
Help! Does anyone have a solution. Thanks very much!

I keep getting an error message when trying to update applications on my Mac.

For a few weeks now, whenever I get the pop up message that there's an update available for something and I click through to go update, it asks me to log in and then gives me this error message:
I click Okay and nothing happens.
I am sure I'm signing in with my current Apple ID. However, I wonder if the problem relates to the issues I had after I got my first iPhone in November. When I first got it, the tech set it up with the Apple ID I had created for my daughter to use for her iPod a few years ago. Since I used my own email address and I don't want her apps, I created a new one and reset my iPhone. That was all before this error message started popping up.
Can anyone help me fix this? I want to be able to update my computer applications.

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.

Why do I keep getting an error message when I try to login to my medicare.gov as this just started happening today ?

Every time I try to login to My Medicare. gov I keep getting this message "The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified." I have used this site many times before but today I keep getting this message. I cleaned out my cache but I continue to get this message. I can login using anouther web browser, but not on Foxfire.

Hi,
The message is universal for everyone. Even I get that message. You just have to wait for it to be back up. There's nothing we can do to fix that error as it's over on Medicare.gov's end.

Thank you for clarify I'm supposed to read the ENTIRE article. I thought I was just supposed to read the title and magically everything will fix itself. I appreciate you taking the time to help me however I do not appreciate the caps and the way you have addressed the situation. If you are not going to kindly help people/make suggestions just don't try! And for the record my conclusions are not illogical, the iOS7 thing is on the website in small font (which I got by reading the ENTIRE thing) and you should really find a new hobby because your socialization skills need some help! That goes for you too Chris. Not everyone is a tech nerd

I keep getting an error message when trying to download i tunes. It says it's looking for MSVCR80.dll and I find it on my computer so I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

I keep getting an error message when trying to download itunes. It says it can't find "msvcr80.dll, but when I search for it on my computer it is there. My itunes was working just fine before I got the message to download the latest upgrade. I've not had any problems doing that before now, so don't really know what to do.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I've upgraded my pc and now Im getting an error message when Im trying to sync my ipod saying I have two itunes libraries. The library thats there is only showing some songs and it's not uploading songs Ive just bought.

I've upgraded my pc and now Im getting an error message when Im trying to sync my ipod saying I have two itunes libraries. The library thats there is only showing some songs and it's not uploading songs Ive just bought.

You seem to have tried everything, and you say it's syncing fine on your Dad's iMac, so I assume, you have also done a Disk Diagnostic from an earlier post by tt2 and conclude that your iPod Hardisk is good.
You don't have to use it as a heavy paperweight, the problem is only using your Windows 7 machine for syncing.
In your troubleshooting steps, did you try to use another High-Speed USB 2.0 port, USB controller resource are very scarce, so if you use other USB devices, while syncing your iPod, it may just freeze.
Windows have a bad reputation for device conflict, so better don't connect other USB devices, while syncing, better sync it while disconnected from Internet, stop antivirus just before you go to bed.
Have a nice day!

I-Photo won't open even though I have upgraded to OS X Yosemite and downloaded the I-Photo upgrader. The upgrades indicate they were successful but I still get an error message when I try to open I-Photo telling me I need to prepare the library

I-Photo won't open even though I have upgraded to OS X Yosemite and downloaded the I-Photo upgrader.
But have you run the the iPhoto Library upgrader? It is installed in Applications > Utilities. Launch it and direct it to your iPhoto library.
Which version of iPhoto did you upgrade from?
The upgrader is only necessary, if you have been running iPhoto7.1.2 or earlier.

After moving from Canada to the US, getting a new iPhone 5C, and restoring my backup from iCloud, I can't update my apps. I get an error message that my account is not valid in the Canadian App store and I must change to the US store. How do I do that?

Change here:
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
You must have a verified billing address & be located in the country whose store you are trying to use.
