Does anyone know why my documents won't open on the desktop

Neither JPG/Word/folders nor the MacintoshHD will open when either single or double clicked? Any ideas why this could be?

I would to a Restore.  Select the iPod in iTunes.  Go to the Summary tab for the iPod.  There is a button there to do a Restore.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  After Restore complete, try playing songs on the iPod again.
If THAT does not fix the problem, and it's not bad headphones (since you also tried the "speaker"), there is probably a hardware problem on the iPod.  All 7th gen nanos are still under warranty.  If you have an Apple Store nearby, you should take it to the store's Genius Bar.  To minimize waiting, you can make a reservation on store's web page.

  • Does anyone know why Reader X won't open secure .pdf, such as a downloaded manual?

    I'm using Vista 64,and updated to Reader X.  It will open standard .pdf files, but secure ones (I downloaded manuals for my Canon digital camera software) not only will not open, but cause Reader X to stop responding.
    My temporary solution:  delete X and reinstall 9.4.whatever.
    What has happened to the infallibility of this software?

    It could be that there is a problem with the pdf files. Each version of Acrobat and Reader are more intolerant to malformed pdfs as that is a vector for spyware and virii.

  • Hello, does anyone know why when i drag and drop from the internet,why my images never show up?

    hello, does anyone know why when i drag and drop from the internet,why my images never show up?

    I'm wanting to drag images from the internet into a folder on my desktop or hard drive. I am used to being able to drag just about any image from any website off the web and into a folder on my old mac, but since I got my laptop, I've noticed I cannot do that. Is it a preference?

  • Does anyone know why there are no football apps for the iPhone for 2011

    does anyone know why there are no football apprs for the iphone for 2011
    I had apps last year for NFL schedules and also for college
    can't find even one this year
    anybody know

    If this is true, then it is because no one is making these apps.
    Why else would it be?

  • Does anyone know why some Apps won't load unless I buy a new App?

    I've been following a couple of threads. It seems some users, myself included, have a problem where certain Apps will not load. They simply start to open and then return back to the Home screen immediately. When it happens to me (maybe once per week) it's always the same Apps which refuse to load, and they ALL do it - Pages, Keynote, Numbers, Garageband, iMovie, Shareplus all stop working. The reported fix from all users is to go to the AppStore and either update, or buy another App - even a free one. Then all Apps work again properly. It started happening for me after upgrading to iOS 5 but many users had the same issue prior to iOS 5.
    So my question is, does anyone know why this is happening? I don't want to find myself out of 3G signal, or abroad when I've turned Data off, and unable to use my Apps. The fix is useful, but I can't understand why we even need a fix. Suggestions?

    Have you tried a full reset when this happens?  This happens to me on rare occasion and a reset fixes things.

  • Does anyone know why my mouse cursor jumps all over the screen at times?

    Does anyone know why the mouse cursor jumps all over the screen at times, especially if I am playing solitare?  Is it Yahoo games or my Apple?

    Is this a Magic Mouse you're talking about?
    If so there's already discussions about this here and maybe related to it, here.  Also google something like "jumping magic mouse" and there's no end of discussions on this topic

  • Anyone know why pdf links won't open? also- malware has hijacked the downloadable file available when clicking on Adobe's file:

    Changed OS to Mavericks & pdf links from websites won't open. I also had private browsing on  in safari.
    I have acrobat 10.1.10.  I tried to update it when prompted  by auto-updates and it said it can't because  the product has been changed since installed. that can only be the switch to mavericks osx. But it might have prompted me to get version 11 though I only have version 10 & I did the version 10 update in mid-Sept.
    Then, I tried going to adobe.com, searched "upda" and got a list of the cs items with icons, plus two text only links, one was acrobat for mac and the last one, "Update manager update (Mac OS)". It said it is to "resolve a common issue with Adobe Update manager on Mac OS". I cliucked that and got some bogus file. When I hit the button on adobe's site, it shows that the file name should be Adobeupdatemanager403.dmg or something very similar to that. Instead in the download list /box I got " installjdownloader.dmg"  I clicked it once & saw terms of service in which they will switch you to use only their search engine, serve ads, etc. So luckily I didn't install it.
    Does adobe need to investigate this malware problem? Others might search the way I did.
    Anyway, this all started because after installing mavericks, i can't open any pdfs from the web.
    Can anyone help me? Thank you very much in advance.

    Moving this discussion to the Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum.

  • Does anyone know why my MBP won't charge from an airline seat plug? This is a regular three prong outlet on a United/Continental plane.

    Whenever I use a seat plug, the light on the computer end of my magsafe adapter comes on for a minute, then goes dark. Meanwhile all of the PC laptop users around me seem to be plugged in and getting power with no problem.

    ask the airline or purchase this if you travel by plane often: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB441Z/A

  • Does anyone know why I can't download Vuze on the ipad

    I have tried to download Vuze to the ipad and it keeps coming up with the message that Safari won't let me download it. This is the free version and I have downloaded on the Mac so I don't understand why I can't on the ipad. Any suggestions?

    This is what so annoys me about the iPad ,apple control what you do with it. Who are they to bully us into doing it their way. ? every time I login I have to do it twice. Why is that. It's not about security per se it's about buisness owning our interaction processes so they can control. What we do and be forced to buy from them. The iPad is just another computer. Slow and clunky at that. Not even a USB port. I regret buying it. Since my Mac laptop is out of order I have no choice but to use it and wait for pages to load like 486 with a 56k dial up modem !  It's good for emails. But crashes every time fb opens a page. Stupid thing. Microsoft tried to restrict user access in similar ways and was defeated in court.  I love my MacBook pro but this iPad 1 is utterly crap.
    I don't mean to annoy anyone who gives their good time on here. Apple is so big and corporate you know it can't hear the ants at its feet who want it to be more open less greedy and listen to its customers rather than get the customer to listen and conform to what it wants..  When my laptop has anew charger I'm selling this iPad because it is so user unfriendly .

  • Does anyone know why there is a moving shadow under the calendar app in my dock?

    It started blinking randomly and I am wondering if it means anything. I am including 2 pictures, to show the two images it would change to. Any help would be appreciated.
    I realize that it probably nothing, but I have been having issues as of late with my macbook pro, so I thought I would see if anyone had any suggestions.

    Is there a 64 bit version of PSE 10?  I'm having printing problems and not sure if that is the reason?
    No 64 bits version for PSE10. I think You'd better start a new discussion with more details about your printing problems.

  • HT2173 Does anyone know why this article "doesn't apply to the iMac G5 (iSight)"?

    I'm trying to fix my Mum's old iMac G5 (iSight). I'm pretty certain it's got some power  issues but I've not yet had the back off of it to properly check the Logic board. At the moment, when you try and power up the computer, it's just pretty much dead. All you get is a blank, black screen which sometimes flickers briefly, sometimes doesn't and then, after a short while, the fans go crazy.
    I'm hoping it might get solved with a simple SMU reset, but I tried the "holding down the power switch whilst inserting the power lead & then pressing the power switch a second time to power-up" but to no avail.
    Next step then is to take the back off  & check out  the Logic board, but the instructions only seem to be for more recent iMacs or  iMac G5's with no iSight. Why should the iSight make such a difference? Can I follow the troubleshooting step-by-step guide or not?
    Cheers for any help

    Items 5 and 6 do not apply to iSight iMacs because these are not user servicable except for adding RAM.

  • Does anyone know why there is a slight lag in the brush tool in CS6?

    This is not a huge problem, but it is annoying.  I have 8 gig of ram and a nvidia NX8600Gt vid card - never had problems in CS5.5 and expected CS6 to be better, but it is not.  Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

    The normal suspect is the video card driver.  CS6 puts a lot more demands on video card.  Make sure driver is current, and keep looking for latest updates.
