Downloads are deleted immediately after download. The download history is there in the download window but cannot be opened because the download is not there.

Any download handled by the downloader in firefox will result in it downloading ok, but it is immediately deleted by the downloader, I assume. I have tried everything to get a Realted AC97 driver dowloaded but have failed. I even downloaded it on a different computer using Internet Explorer and then emailed it to myself in yahoo mail. It arrived intact but when Yahoo downloaded it the Firefox downloader takes over and the same thin happens again. The source of the download doesn't have anything to do with the problem.

I haven't found a reason yet for this problem, but MS IE9 does the same thing - sort of. Except that IE sends a message after download that "the file contained a virus and was deleted." Very frustrating. Have done virus scan, malwarebytes scan, disabled antivirus and firewall - same result.
Solution: download and install Chrome (sorry Firefox, better figure this one out). Problem does not occur with Google Chrome.

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What does this mean? I have had this phone for over a year..

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What is the issue, had this phone over a year??

I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck!

I downloaded Photoshop, but cannot launch it because my Mac is not 64 bit. If I buy a new Mac, will I be able to download Photoshop again?

Yes of course.
You can download and install it as many times as you like on as many computers as you wish.
But you're always restricted to a maximum of two activations at any time.

A friend of mine was recently in an accident and we need to delete some photos from her iPhone's "Photo Stream From my Computer" album, but cannot figure out a way to do it (there's no delete button). Help?

Sounds like it was synced from her computer using iTunes. Connect the phone to her computer, open iTunes, click on the name of her phone in iTunes, go to the Photos tab and see if this folder is checked. If so, unchecking it and syncing will remove them all, or deleting/moving the photos from the folder on her computer and syncing will remove the deleted/moved photos.

Help! iPhoto alerts pop up that say, "The photo "DSC06691.JPG" cannot be opened because the original cannot be located." I can locate original, but I have multiple images with same name!

Recently my library prompted me to rebuild due to inconsistencies that were found in library. Now alerts pop up that say it can't locate the original of an image, so I have an option to cancel or locate it. I can locate the file, however, there are usually 2 or 3 photos with the same file name! Not sure which one it is trying to locate etc. I have a feeling this is the problem. Not sure how it happened. Has anyone had this happen to them?? iPhoto library hasn't rebuilt because there are so many pop up alerts...I have a feeling it's a big problem. I am going to attempt to select one image for each one and see what happens, but I am concerned what the outcome will be.
My camera cards are already deleted (I knew I should have kept them!!). We do have time capsule, so I am assuming I can go back, but I am worried that iphoto will do the same thing. It just started doing it about two weeks ago and it didn't correspond with any photo uploads. I hope someone can help!

Are you running a managed or referenced library?
If it's a managed library apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

All My Files cannot be opened because the item cannot be found

This just started this morning, before updating from 10.8.2 to 10.8.3: When I click on "All my Files" in the Finder sidebar, I get a little "poof", and nothing appears in the file list area. All other items in the sidebar work OK. If I choose Go > All My Files, I get this message: "The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found." This happens in my account, my wife's account, and the Guest User. It worked yesterday!
It gets worse. After clicking "All my Files" from the sidebar, Finder takes over my MacBook Pro! Switching to another desktop immediately returns to the Finder desktop with focus set to Finder. All I can do is "Force Quite Finder", and then things return to normal.
I have tried a few things I found online: clearing out the plist via Terminal: "
cd /Users/***/Library/Preferences ; rm /Users/***/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sidebarlists.plist /Users/***/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist ; killall Finder (where *** is my username)"
", making Spotlight re-index, hard-booting, soft-booting, medium-booting, staring at the screen with a mean look on my face, but alas, nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions? I miss "All my Files"

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

The alias cannot be opened because the original item can't be found

I just reset my MacBook's hard drive so I could clean my computer of Server.app. I erased all my HD's data.
I backed up my important files onto a DVD-RW. So I put my pictures and music into a .zip file. What my problem is, is when I open the zip, it makes a folder on my desktop. When I open the folder I get this message:
I can't get the original file since it is permanently erased from my HD. What should I do?
Please reply ASAP.

FYI - I had upgraded to 10.4 from a CD, and when I upgraded that to 10.4.11, I was able to connect to my local servers again!

I've downloaded Creative Cloud for Desktop (windows) but everytime I open it, the only thing I see is a black page.

I can't login into my adobe account or see the home page.
I don't know how to fix it.
Like this:
When I restart or shut down my PC for a moment I can see the login page, but then the computer shuts down and I am in the beginning again..
Somebody can help?
Bye

Hi Stefola,
Go to Control Panel then Programs and uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud.
** If it says application is running in the background then open Task Manager and close the process of Creative cloud.
Once the creative cloud is uninstalled then follow the below mentioned steps:
     1. Go to C\Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
Delete OOBE folder
     2. Go to C\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
If you do not see AppData under your user name then you can Click on Start and type %localappdata% , It will open Local folder then you can go to Adobe/OOBE
Delete OOBE folder
    8. Go to https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud?promoid=KLYVF
Download Adobe Creative cloud, Install it.
If the above steps do not work. Try creating user account and then try to open Adobe Creative cloud.
Thanks,
Nikhil Gupta

Document cannot be opened because it is either not a supported file type or the file has been damaged

Hi All,
I would appreciate if you can help me with this problem. I used to be able to access all my pdf files, but now I can't and this is the error message I get on them.
I tried the registry editor to create a bValidateBytesBeforeHeader solution, but either it is not the solution to my problem, or I'm not doing it right.
I would really like some help from you guys so that I can get my files to work.
Thanks

girisht97034793, just a little extra note. There are several possible causes of "file corrupted". These include
* The rules for PDF being tightened up. This is what the bValidateBytesBeforeHeader solution is about. This is NOT the problem here.
* File was a PDF, but got damaged, for example by a faulty disk. Could be this, probably not.
* File never was a PDF. Often, we can see what the file really is. But I can't see that this file is any other kind of valid file.
* File was damaged by a virus or "ransomware". Perhaps this is the problem here.
* File was encrypted. But usually you'd know about this going on.
Anyway, this is just confirming what ~graffiti says, but I'd done the research before replying but I thought I'd share. He has excellent questions.

If i dont have apple care will the apple store fix my phone for free? i cannot use headphones because the port is messed up..

My headphone port is messed up, I cant use headphones.. Will the apple store fix it for me for free or will they charge me to do so? I dont think i have apple care?

If you dont have AppleCare but you are still within your Apple 1 year limited warranty then hardware service is free as long as the issue was not caused by physical or liquid damage.

When I try to install the newest version of itunes my computer tells me it cannot be installed because the file/program needed cannot be used.... i have updated my computer and it still isnt working!

Help!

What's the precise text of the message please, heather? There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.
