Those were all lies. They are scammers, and were trying to scare you into believing that you were infected with "viruses" so that you would pay them to fix the nonexistent problem.
Did you give them remote access to your system at any point? If so, your Mac should be considered compromised at this point, so you'll need to erase the hard drive and reinstall everything from scratch. For more information, see:

I accidentally changed a setting so every time I open a jpeg photo, adobe reader pops up and says it's not compatible. I just want to be able to open a jpeg normally and not have adobe open.

Hi Lhughes0,
Try these steps:
1. Select the .jpeg file
2. Right click on that file and on context menu go to the last option which says "Properties"
3. Now you will see the option where you change the program to use for opening your file
4. Instead of Adobe Reader select Windows Photo there.
5. Apply and say OK to it
Give it a try

Every time I try to access my emails on microsoft outlook I get a message from windows that mobileme services have stopped working. windows then tries to find a solution and says mobileme is not installed correctly. When I try to repair or uninstall via the control panel my pc cannot find the route????? I do have an iphone and ipad. What can I do?

The CrashIDs are what is needed. Do not attempt to attach or paste the reports.
#Run Firefox in safe mode does that prevent crashes ?<br/>[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
#Disable all plugins

So you are saying it works ok as long as you avoid certain pages such as this Forum. That makes me wonder if it could be malware that is blocking access to assistance.Run malwarescans with multipe and up-to-date tools.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

I have to enter my Firefox Sync account information every time I open the browser. Is there a way to get Sync to retain this information?

Using Firefox 3.6.12 with Firfox Sync 1.5.1. When I open Firefox I have to go to Sync settings and put in all my Sync account information. One the information is in place everything sync's up fine and I am alright until I close Firefox. Once I open Firefox again I have to input all of my Sync account settings again. Is there a way to get Sync to remember all of my settings so that it connects and syncs every time I start Firefox?

@the-edmeister
Thanks for the advice. In my case, it is sufficient to '''uncheck''' " Saved passwords".
('''''Preferences -> Privacy -> Clear History when Firefox closes -> Settings -> Saved Passwords''''').
Great to have Sync. :)

Thank you so much. My computer that was functional and fast pre-Yosemite was moving at a snail's paste just to do a simple file search!

How come every time I open certain apps, my imac gives me an internal error message then it crashes?

I dont understand it and I'm hoping that someone out there might be able to, Thank you ....eddyy

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Installed premiere pro but every time I open it the program grey's out with "not responding" icon then closes. please help.

this is for a current class and I'm already behind. I've done everything I could think of , I re-intalled tried to open it different ways...nothing is working.

The program came with my Adobe Creative Suite 6 Production Premium.
The computer I'm currently using is a Toshiba Satelite C55t-A5123
and when I got o open it I get its main loading page showing the title Premiere Pro CS6 then it greys out not allowing my to click anything. and shows a icon box. Premiere pro is not responding....then it just closes the program. Sometimes I'll get a please wait while windows searches for solutions but it always ends up just closing the program

Why every time I open Firefox does it say that I do not have the latest version? I have downloaded 8.0.1 dmg for the Mac.

The Mac has system version 10.6.8. I have the orange Firefox HD icon on my desk top. Am I supposed to do something with that?

What page is telling you this? If it is google.com/firefox that page is outdated and reporting wrong information.
Change your homepage to about:home or something else...

Every time i open a new tab (not window but tab) i get the yahoo homepage. How do i change it back to a blank page?

using version 3.6.13

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

How do I solve this error issue i get every time I open the program?

This happens every time I open muse. It just happens in muse and nothing else. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and i have wiped all of my adobe files off my computer and then re installed them and it still didnt solve the issue.
Adobe Muse CC has encountered an error and will now exit. Please report the last few actions you took leading up to this error to the Adobe Muse CC team. Assertion failed in file "/Users/erato/Desktop/workspace/Build_Blob_Mac/dvaapp/Muse/project/mac/../../src/MuseIMSC onnector.cpp" at line 856: fUserEmailId==dvacore::utility::UTF8to16(emailID) user id mismatch

Hello,
please do the following steps and you will be all set.
1. Sign out from Muse By going to Help > Sign out. (if you see the option to do that)
2. Sign out from Creative Cloud Application. (Steps are mentioned in the link Sign out, Sign in | Creative Cloud Desktop app), then Quit Creative Cloud Application.
3. Rename the "OOBE" folder to "OOBEold"
MAC : (This folder can be found at Finder > Go > Go to Folder> Type ~/library/application support/Adobe > Hit return)
Widows : ( This folder can be found at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe )
4. Relaunch Muse, Sign in with your Adobe ID.
Please let me know if the steps above do not work or if you have any confusion.
Regards
Vivek

Re-syncs same 4000 items every time I open Itunes....

I am having this issue every time I open itunes. There are about 4000 items that sync every time I open itunes. They are the same songs and podcasts. Why won't these items just stay on the ATV?
Also, I have songs in my itunes library that I transfered to an external drive that are no longer on my laptop, so my question is, how can I "update" my library to notice just the music files on my laptop harddrive without deleting each song one-by-one?
Thank You

This isn't usual behaviour, it indicates you may have issues on your network or computer that is causing this.

As you are probably aware the choice of tunes for syncing is not done item by item but rather by playlists or everything, you might try using some smart playlists to include only the music you want.

Every time I open Firefox 4 I get a popup box saying: "OPENING FIREFOX SETUP 4.0.1.exe, Binary File from..." with different download link addresses

Every time I open Firefox 4 a popup box keeps trying to get me to run setup again. The box always reads: "Opening Firefox Setup 4.0.1.exe, Binary File from...." followed by a link address, which is different every time. Recent addresses: http://mirror.umoss.org.......also http://mozilla.mirrors.tds.net....also http://mozilla.ussg.indiana.edu
and so on.
Help! Thanks!

I am having the same problem and it seems to have just started (6/15/11). I have tried reloading the program several times and even the first release of the 4.o with no success. The same scenario also occurs when I click to open a new "tab" after the browser is already launched.
