Thank you in advance.

Yea, I did a search in the app section, in the laptop (spotlight), and its nowhere to be found. Take a look at this...I just tried to purchase Facetime and this happens.

Installing after reformat of computer?

I am preparing to reformat my computer for a completely fresh install of XP.
After this is complete I will need to re-install itunes and my ipod.
I have the 30GB 5G ipod with the original install disc.
Shortly after purchase the updated firmware was released which I downloaded and upgraded my ipod (leaving me 2 updates in add/remove)
When I am ready to install my ipod again do I use the original disc which came with the pod and then run the setup.exe for the updated firmware which is on my pod now or do I jst use the setup.exe of the latest update?
I have 2005-10-12 plus 2006-01-10 and am totally unsure about this re-install. I don't know if a downloaded update contains all the setup files which means I don't need my original disc first.
Hope this makes sense as I want the re-install to work the way it should in the correct order. One disc and then the update or just the update? help please
Thanks for any advice
Windows XP Pro

Thank you for yor quick reply
I will back up my library to an external drive but thanks for the reminder.
The last update worked fine for me but it does make sense to follow your advice and have the option if things should go wrong.
Appreciate your reply & hope everything will work after a re-install.

How to retrieve bookmarks after reformatting the computer?

Hi! My computer got a virus which prevented my from opening any application which includes my browsers. I didn't know what to do so I asked someone to reformat the computer for me. Now I don't have all my previous bookmarks. Is there any way that I can get them back. Those are all important for me. They really are. please help me on this. I don't know what to do. Please help.

I'm afraid that all your personal data including the bookmarks in the Firefox profile folder is lost if you didn't create a backup before reformatting the computer or in the past.
For future prevention, see:

What happens after reformatting the computer ? ( windows XP )

Hello everyone,
after a nearly two years of running, my winxp installation needs a cleanup so i'm planning on formatting the hard drive and installing xp
So i wanted to know what to do in order to backup the iTunes/iPhone sync
i'm guessing there's a procedure to follow ..
some particular files/folders to backup and paste after reinstalling xp .. ?
thanks !

If you back up your My Documents folder you will save all of your music plus any other files that you may have created on the computer before the reformat. Note that the iPhone is NOT a backup device; you cannot use it to transfer music between computers or from the computer before reformatting to after.
Some additional advice: DON'T reformat your current disk. Buy a new hard drive and install XP on it. Get a USB enclosure for the old drive so you can easily copy your important data to the new drive. And you will still have it in case of disaster.
BTW, my laptop has been running for 5 years now and I've never had to reformat it. Why do you think you need to?

Error code after reformatting of computer

my computer was starting to bug up and it would restart every 5 minutes.
Usually what fixes it is if I do a reinstall. This time I formated my HD and when i tried to do a fresh install thats when a page saying
Recovery
your PC needs to be repaired
the operating sustem couldnt be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors.
File:\\Windows\system32\config\system
Error code 0xc000000f
No matter what it goes straight to that screen.
Is there anything I can do for that? I have an install disk for windows 8.

Yea, I did a search in the app section, in the laptop (spotlight), and its nowhere to be found. Take a look at this...I just tried to purchase Facetime and this happens.

Purchased ringtones disappeared after Transferring to computer

I just purchased 4 ringtones from my iphone4. Afterwhich, I hooked it up with iTunes and clicked 'Transfer purchases'. Of the 4 ringtones, only 1 is listed in my iTunes Ringtone and Puchased folders. The 3 are also gone from my iphone.
I've never had issues with Transferring purchases. I can't understand why only 1 purchase moved to the computer AND stayed on my iphone. Where did the other 3 purchases go?
Please help! Thanks.

I have same issue. I have done the checklist from iMore website -- all techniques do not work. I followed the steps, but the "remove and sync" does not appear. I also did "restore from backup"; still did not work. The ringtones were NOT restored on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.1).
Apple will have to do another update to fix this issue and refund the purchase.

My ipod shuffle disappears after I click on the icon in Itunes. I reinstalled Itunes and my computer has been updated. What else can I do?

The shuffle icon in iTunes disappears, after you click on the icon in iTunes? If so, if you do not click on the shuffle icon in iTunes, does it remain there indefinitely? Are you looking at the shuffle icon in the iTunes sidebar?

I need to re-install acrobat after having to reformat my computer

I need to re-install acrobat after having to reformat my computer. How do I go about this. I did have the foresight to save my serial number . Do I just re-download it?

Download, install, then activate it with your serial number.

Dictation in text message = Does not work
Speaking with Siri via activated with Home button = Does not work
Speaking with Siri with "Raise to Speak' = WORKS
Voice Memos = WORKS
Speaker phone on call = WORKS
Voice control instead of Siri = WORKS
I've tried hard reset, settings reset, wiping and reloading backup...nothing. Was hoping 7.1 might offer some respite, but no dice....
I was hoping 7.1 would somehow solve it.

Bluetooth Driver "Disappear" after waking computer in Windows XP SP2

Hello,
This has always happened after waking my computer up from sleep under Bootcamp. I am in Windows XP, I put it to sleep. I come back later, and occasionally my bluetooth driver disappears.
This can be better illustrated with the following screenshots. The first shows the driver information missing.

The second shows that anytime I try to change the settings of the driver, it won't allow me.
http://students.cup.edu/coo9893/pics/UO0002.jpg
Has anyone else shared this problem, or know of a solution? Rebooting into Windows XP solves this, but it's a very frustrating process if you were in the middle of some work.

I would try SP3 to see if its fixed in SP3.
I know it was a bug in Vista RTM: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929577
There are more complaints about BT disappearing on the MS site.
Kinda makes you happy running Mac OS X, you would think a company would fix it prior to shipping.

Aperture 3.2.4 macbookpro lion: image disappears after loading from any project; repairing everything on starting app doesn't fix it. Only restarting the computer works. Any help, please? ... in non-technical language please. Thanks

“Hi Kirby, thanks a lot for your answer.
I got one answer, from DMoore, saying:
“Try Safe boot and then restart with only Aperture open. Still doent work write back with more details like Ram, HD capacity/free space. Are these thumbnails or Previews? Have you turned off building previews in AP preferances?
Safe boot http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
Starting up into Safe Mode does several things:
1 It forces a directory check of the startup volume.
2 It loads only required kernel extensions (some of the items in /System/Library/Extensions).
3 In Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier, Safe Mode runs only Apple-installed startup items (such items may be installed either in /Library/StartupItems or in /System/Library/StartupItems; these are different than user-selected account login items).
4 It disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
5 It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
6 It disables all startup items and login items (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
7 Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later: A Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache at (/var/db/dyld/). A cache with issues may cause a blue screen on startup, particularly after a Software Update. Restarting normally recreates this cache.”
As I don’t know much about the technical aspects of computers, I don’t really understand the first answer, and it sounds like following it might produce unwanted changes.
But I understand your questions, so I’ll try to answer them;
"loading from any Project" means that I encounter the problem when I’m using a project, possibly after/because I’ve left the Mac on overnight, and/or I’ve made a lot of adjustments, and, once the problem is there, it happens in any other project which I open – the images load then disappear.
I can see images in the Browser, so it only happens in the Viewer(s).
I’m afraid I don’t understand what you mean by: “If you select "Photos" from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector, does it show you all of your Images?”. I am a newcomer to Aperture, so I don’t know what some of the buttons are for yet, but when I want to look at and adjust my pictures, I import them, as referenced images, then Aperture creates a folder/project in the Library. When I click on that Project (when it’s working properly), all the images appear in the Browser or the Viewers – without me needing to “select Photos from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector”. I selected it and looked at all the items in the dropdown menu, but none of them seems to offer the option to ‘show all the images’. So I’m not sure how to answer your question except to say that – yes, I can see all the pictures in the Browser or the Viewers (when it’s working properly), but I don’t seem to need to use the Photos button to achieve this.
Did Aperture work before?
Yes it worked ok for a while, but I only purchased it on 24th May.
If I understand correctly, the difference between thumbnail and preview is that the thumbnail is what I see when the “Loading” wheel is turning, and the disappearance of this wheel after a few seconds means that I am now looking at the preview (also, the thumbnail cannot be adjusted).
So I think the problem occurs when the thumbnail has finished loading; the viewer going blank/grey might mean that it is not showing the preview.
But I have not changed the default Preview settings in Aperture Preferences.
My macbookpro details:
2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7
Memory: 8 Gb 1333 MHz DDR3
Hard Drive capacity 499.25 GB
Available 387.36 GB
I have noticed another problem: I cannot apply the same rating to multiple images: following the instructions, I select a group of contiguous (or non- contiguous) images, choose a selection eg “5stars” using the keyboard, but the stars only appear in the last selected image – even though all the images are still showing as selected.”
I hope this helps you to understand more.
Thank you for trying to help me.

Facetime disappeared on my phone after moving to UK

Hi
I have an unlocked IPhone 4s purchased from Mobinil in Egypt. It's always had Facetime on it. After I moved to London, and got an O2 Sim, Facetime disappeared from the phone completely, both the call buttons, and the settings. Why?! Anyone got any clue?
Help please.
Thanks

Why is it that the Facetime icon disappeared after i changed my sim from qatar vodafone number to philippines smart number? How can i reactivate my facetime?

Check to see if you have an old phone number associated with this person in your address book. When you call someone on Facetime it calls ALL numbers/emails associated with that persons contact sheet! This was my problem, this stranger has my husband's old phone number!

Reloading songs into iTunes after reformatting computer

I recently reformatted my computer but I had backed up all of my music onto an external harddrive
So after reformatting, I load all of my music back onto the C drive and then reinstalled iTunes.
All of my music still shows in the library of iTunes but most have that exclamation point showing that it doesnt know where the file for the song is.
Lately ive been manually dragging songs one by one into the library but i have almost 5000 songs and thats gonna be a reallllyyy long process lol.
So I was wondering what the "fast" way to do this is?

I was watching this topic as well and in the process of watching it i had to reinstall my itunes. I installed a registry fixer program called registry booster2 from uniblue and ran it before i installed quicktime or itunes. I downloaded a seperate up to date quicktime and than installed the up to date itunes and when I put my music back on I did not have any of those exclamation marks.
don't know if it will work for you but thought i would share.

Word Add in disappears after computer restart

We are using Office 2007. The BI publisher word tab add in disappears after reboot. When we try to re-install the control panel has the option to repair which indicates that it is still installed. Any ideas on what causes this? Thanks.

#2 - No, the other add-ins stay, it's just this one.
Just to clarify my original question - wasn't asking if the other addins stay but specifically if the machine in question is "identical" in terms of what is installed etc
There is a known issue where Outlook addins will get disabled if the addin exceeds some Outlook load threshold time so if you have 5-6 other machines that work without any problems, logic would dictate that there is some difference (however subtle) between
the machines that work and the one that doesn't. Have no idea personally what that might be (i.e. if everything else is supposedly the same, is the problem machine as fast as the others in terms of processing power & memory etc). Not likely
that this is first time the ZixCorp folks would have heard about it (mind you - there is a "first time" for everything for any issue reported to a company so the questions I've asked about similarities would also likely be asked by them.
