DMG WONT EJECT BECAUSE IT SAYS ITS RUNNING WHEN IT ISNT
i have a dmg and when i eject it it says to close apps running off it, but there are none, what do i do
Rebooting will fix it for sure but if you can't, check to make sure that none of the programs inside that dmg are running. Check to make sure that no other programs are accessing it (eg: if there're .doc files in there, make sure no office suite is editing it). Check to make sure that you're not currently browsing the contents of that folder such as in Finder or in Terminal.

Itunes wont launch, though it says its running
So heres the deal, got a new comp a few weeks ago and installed itunes on it. I'm running windows XP pro (same as on old one) and when I try to run itunes it wont launch. It says its running in my task manager though. I've tried reinstalling it, but same thing happens. Any suggestions? Thanks!
ok i think we might be onto something here with the first link, the dosent open after upgrade one. Everything went fine until step 7, the main SCinfo file exists, but the SC Info.sidb file that it shows being inside there is NOT there. Could this be a problem with the installation or something else?
Though i suppose if it wasent there at all it shouldent hurt as your supposed to delete it anyways....but if thats the case (I certainly didnt delete it already)and the fix is to delete a file that isnt there anyways, i'm not sure that will help.

Hello,
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

IPod nano wont update because it says its windows based
My iPod wont update because it says that it is Windows based. I have never used it on a Windows machine.
How do i change it to mac based.In the restore instructions it says that you need to plug the iPod into a power adaptor during the second stage.
Not really.
Actually it says,
"iTunes will present one of two messages on screen with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
* Restore Instruction 1: Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
* Restore Instruction 2: Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models)."
You will get Restore Instruction 2. -
My computer wont let me download MP3 rocket because it says its in DOS mode. Im 14 so if someone could help me turn it off step by step thank you.
From what I know, MP3 Rocket is a program that will only work on a Windows computer. They don't make a version that will work on a Mac.
If you need to convert Youtube files to MP3, then you may want to try Smart Converter. It is available in the App Store for free. Just launch App Store, then look in the Top Charts section, under FREE, select "see all", and look for the the download shown below. -
I purchased a cd and it wont download one of the songs because it says its corrupt what can I do, I dont want to buy it again, I purchased a cd and it wont download one of the songs because it says its corrupt what can I do, I dont want to buy it again
After 4 repetitions I think I got that straight.
Answer: Return the CD.
Or did you mean this was an album you bought from iTunes, in which case it really isn't a "CD" (which is a hard, plastic, shiny disc) and I'm at risk of getting confused. If it is a corrupt file that you downloaded, delete the file and try downloading it again.

Logic does not see my hd omni as an input device. Any ideas? I've been told to reinstall logicpro - but apple won't let me because it says its already installed on this machine.
I'm having the same issue with a file called IMG_2353.MOV that was imported into iPhoto from my iPhone and also have to manually select the items to import (so the rogue file doesn't error everything out). I've tried using Image Capture to locate/delete the file directly from my iPhone, but even though I can SEE it in Image Capture, I can't delete it or anything. This is VERY frustrating! My friend/Apple guru's only suggestion was to backup my phone then restore it through iTunes. Risky but should do the trick. I'm too scared to try, though!

I currently have a mac osx, and my CC keeps coming saying its expired, when it should be running the CS6 design standard. So how do I get my platform to use the CS6 as my default instead of the CC one.
Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later
And you can change the default program for a file type under File --> Info.
