Download Helper, already installed, but keeps requesting to be installed at start up.

Have Firefox 5 installed. Have Download Helper 4.9.3 installed. But every time I start Firefox, get directed to page for download of Download Helper which appears to be same version as one I have. What am I missing? What do I need to do to make it stop?

You're welcome.
You can rename the Firefox shortcut.
Make sure that you are on the ''release'' update channel.
It is possible that you are still on the beta update channel if you ever installed a Firefox 4 beta version or a release candidate. 
You can check that by looking at the pref app.update.channel on the about:config page. 
If the value of that pref is beta then it is better to download and install the latest Firefox 4.0.x release. 
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

Any content that your friend downloaded will be tied to their account - so if you want to sync to your computer's iTunes and keep that content then you will need to authorise your friend's account, and you only be able to download updates to their apps via their account. You should delete the apps and buy/download your own copies of them.

Hello Sandy,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your security questions. I found an article with some useful information if you cannot remember the answers to your security questions:
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.

Im trying to download itunes 10.5 but keep getting error message that says: There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A problem run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.

im trying to download itunes 10.5 but keep getting error message that says: There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A problem run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. I am using windows XP 32 bit, all the other computers in my house downloaded just fine, no problems, however this is the computer my iphone is set up to, ive tried doing a virus scan, windows update, downloading other things, updating everything possible, everything works fine, its just itunes that wont download, anyone have any other ideas?

Yes, I had found a similar solution also. I'm running XP Pro, SP3. I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair. Then run the 10.5 exe.
While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess. Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes. Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing. I haven't begun to work on that.

App store shows "download" when already installed.

Why does the app store show mountain lion ready to "download" when I have already installed mountain lion? Do i need to download and reinstall?

Well, because the App Store is only concerning itself with the Mountain Lion _installer_ (which is an application) and not the OS itself.
The OS will be updated via Software Update, as it always is. Note that in Mountain Lion that Software Updates appear in the App Store application, but this doesn't mean they're actually delivered _via_ the App Store. Software Updates for non-Mac-App-Store applications are delivered as they always were, just with a different front-end UI. It can be confusing ;-)

HT201210 ios 7 has downloaded to my phone but keeps saying software update is not available at this time . Try again later . What am I doing wrong ??

ios 7 has downloaded to my iphone 4s but keeps saying " software update is not available at this time . Try again later . what am i doing wrong ??

You should try again later, the servers are getting slammed. Bunch of people trying to download at the same time.
Give it time, keep trying, should eventually work.

I already have download itunes 11.1 but keeps telling me to download it. Why?

I already have download i tunes 11.1. but it keeps telling me to download it

And if you have installed it, make sure you don't have a duplicate, older copy somewhere on your system. If you moved iTunes from its default location or renamed it, the installer or Software Update probably left the older copy in place and installed the new version and you may be launching the old one.

I'm trying to download and run Firefox but keep getting an "error creating directory" message. C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\res\dtd What do I need to do to fix this?

It shows under the message, the following:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\res\dtd
What do I need to do to fix this?

* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Have you disabled any firewall and security/antivirus programs? This seems to have helped the vast majority of people who have posted the same problem in this forum.

How do I get my photos not to auto download into photo stream, but keep photo stream on?

My entire family has apple devices and we enjoy photo stream a lot! However, with my new iphone 5, I do not want pictures I take to auto download to photo stream! This being said, I cannot find a way to do this without turning off photo stream all together... something I do not want to do. So what do I do?

I believe you may have answer your own question, it's either all or nothing.

I just upgraded to Firefox5, and it no longer saves my tabs. I done all the things that your help section suggests, but it still only gives me my start page, and not my tabs

I don't know what else to tell you...my comp used to automatically save whatever tabs I had upon closing. I could click in the top right hand corner: and, when I would open firefox, my tabs would be there.
I have done all the things you suggest. Tried closing from the File menu...nope, went into options and made sure that "save my tabs" was checked (yes it was) no it didn't help.
Also, a lot of my regular pages that I leave open, needed to be (continually) renewed...
Why do upgrades always screw things up?

Try to delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (or hardware acceleration) is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Try to Restore with iTunes on your computer. If this does not work, there is full Warranty. Make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution.
