Firefox download has a circle with line through it, and says I don't have the right "architecture", but previous Firefox worked fine so HELP!
Tried to download Firefox 4.0. Window where I drag icon to applications folder has a line and a circle over the Firefox. when I attempt to drag it to the folder, it says there is a newer version already there and do I want to replace it. When I replaced it with your new download a window came up that said I don't have the proper architecture to run this. I am using Mac 10.5.8. Please fix this! I'm in the middle of planning an art exhibit and need my Firefox!!!!
Firefox 4 requires an Intel Mac. You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

8703e shows a circle with line through it and box behind. Will not turn on. NEED HELP!!
My wife just got this BB and has been working great, when all of a sudden there isa circle with a line through it and a box in the center of it with a cirle, square, and a triangle inside the box. We have tried removing the battery to no avail. Talked with a person at one of the local stores and he said I need to download the desktop manager. I did that, but it will not connect to phone. Any suggestion?

Macbook pro wont start up-start up screen has a circle with line through it
When i turn my computer on it goes to the login screen, when i type in my password, an apple pops up on a grey screen, the computer thinks for a few minutes then a circle with a diagonal line through it pops up. Im hoping there is a way to fix this issue without loosing all of my data. i just got a hard drive but havent had a chance to back everything up yet. i know i signed up for some kind of back up with apple where they gave me a key # that i needed to save. i have that number but im really not sure what it is or how to use it. PLEASE HELP!

I downloaded Firefox 6 and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest Firefox. I tried twice. Thank you.
I have a similar problem; but I think the cause of the "already running" message is that my computer crashed.
I rebooted before I learned to look for the parent lock file, but even when I knew to look for it, I found my original profile folder to be empty.
So I created another profile folder, and FF works, but I cannot access my old profile folder. When I open the location where it should be, nothing's there. But if I go to profile manager, I see my original profile is still there (and it has a location, it's where it should be - and where it's invisible, but even if I type in this location, nothing comes up).
I tried making all folders visible (I run Windows 7), but this did not make my old profile visible.
I want to find it because of the bookmarks I bookmarked recently. -
I tried updating my iPhone3g through itunes. Now i'm stuck in recovery mode and i've EVERYTHING even websites and such but nothing worked out! I've also tried restarting and fiddling with the home button but nothing still worked. Please help! What should I do??
Well, if you've indeed tried EVERYTHING, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

I just downloaded iOS 6 because I hadn't downloaded that one yet then once that is downloaded i tried to download iOS 7 but my settings keeps saying that I already hav the latest update but my update is only iOS 6 not 7 so I was wandering how to get iOS 7 to download onto my iPod
iOS 7 not compatible with 4G iPod
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G iPod only has 256 MB -
Ever since i plugged my iphone into the computer, all of my music has been messed up. The songs don't have the right album cover i guess they all just got mixed up somehow. i dont know but its annoying and im not sure how to fix it.
If not this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Have you checked the Software update page at the App Store?
And do you have iLife '11 and iWorks '09 installed? Only these versions are eligible to be updated to the new versions. -
MBP hangs after login screen with Circle with line through it
Recently, my MBP (Model A1278, MB990LL/A) started doing the "folder with blinking question mark" at start up as if it couldn't find the startup disk.
I held Option at startup and chose the Macintosh HD that it found. After selecting, it brings me to my username/login. I type in the PW and hit enter and the screen turns gray and I see the Apple logo in the middle with spinning gear below it. (All good so far, as this sequence is the same sequence as my other MBP). After about 1min of gear spinning though, the Apple logo changes to a Circle with a line through it. It never logs in and I never see the desktop.
Troubleshooting I've done:
1. Pulled out the HDD, plugged it up to my OTHER MBP and ran Disk Utility on the whole drive. Found no errors.
2. Put the HDD in question in my OTHER MBP and booted into my user account just fine. All the way to Desktop, no problems.
3. Took my WORKING HDD from my OTHER MBP and put it in the MBP in question and tried to boot, did the same thing. Circle with line after logging in.
4. Tried to run Apple Hardware Test from boot cd by holding D but nothing happens. Just gray screen to infinity.
5. Replaced the trackpad from my OTHER MBP just for fun
Any ideas? I'm usually pretty good at this stuff, but this one has me stumped.
Thank you!!!No luck. I can't do a Safe Reboot, nor can I reset the NVRAM/PRAM. When I power on either 1 of 2 things happen. A) Nothing, grey screen until folder with flashing question mark or B) When it decides to, it finds my HDD and goes to login screen but after entering pw and hitting submit, I get the Apple logo for a minute then replaces with a Circle w/ Line.
Can't hold Shift at reboot, can't hold c to boot from DVD (have to hold Option and choose DVD), can't hold D and boot the Apple Hardware Test DVD.
Does anyone know of a way to reset the NVRAM/PRAM manually? Is there a CMOS battery like on a windows PC or something similar that I can remove to reset? Command+Option+P+R does not work, it reads that I've pressed Option and gives me the Startup Disk Manager screen to select a drive to boot from.
Thanks -
Gray Start Up Screen Circle With Line Through It
so i am starting up my macbook, and on the gray start up screen there is a circle with a line through it, and i dont have any idea what that means...
i recently got a new hard drive put in it, and since then its been pretty darn slow, and i cant do certain things like use safari because it is too slow and freezes up.... and then when i restarted it this happened...
i dont know what to do and what this means.
Thanks

if anyone has any help...

I have a 2006 iMac that I've upgraded to each new os as they came out. I just wiped it (for the kids to use, I have a new iMac with Mavericks) and reintalled Tiger from the original discs. I want to get it back to Lion - which I purchased from the Mac App Store. But Tiger doesn't have the App Store and I don't have the discs anymore from the intermediate versions. I tried downloading Lion from the new iMac but it's not available...
Any ideas?To get to the App Store, you need to upgrade the Tiger machine to Snow Leopard.

MacBook starts to boot and then has the "no" symbol (circle with a line through it)
Tried to reboot but now get the ?
Any ideas?Something is messed up with the Disk.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

I was trying to upgrade my version of Firefox. Downloaded the new one, got rid of old one as it said could not install because old one existed. Now cannot use either. Firefox circle has line through it.
For to use Firefox 4.0 and newer you need both Intel and OSX 10.5 or newer.
Either you can use the 3.6.17 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html or use a third-party build of Firefox 4.0 from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
note there is no actual 4.0.2 as they decided to get ahead with their own build. -
Won't boot shows circle with line through it
Hi, I just started my Mac Mini and the apple logo turns to a circle with a line through it. Any ideas?
hi guys, hope u all are good?
i Have a problem with my Mac mini starting up...
a Couple of months ago I had an issue with my iPhones syncing to iTunes, I contacted apple support centre for assistance and got it fixed after weeks of struggle with apples technicians helping night after night we figured out that the only way to successfully get the iPhones synced we had to create a new user account which was the last resort we wanted, the. Helped me installing OS X numerous times and did report and all the was to do ( to much to explain). So they suggested that the only was with the new user account but advised that when I have backed up everything I should contact them and the would help me format the hard drive and installing everything onto the Mac mini from scratch, so I did that and got the hard drive formatted and choose the option to install a new copy of OS X off the net via the disk utilities centre on the Mac mini on downloading completion the Mac mini rebooted and started up by hanging with with the startup screen so I switched it off and switched it Back on after a couple of minutes i got the apple changing into a circle with a strike thru?
I Have tried installing a OS X on a external and changing the booting device but the Mac mini doesn't respond anything done on the keyboard?
IS there here any one out there that would be able to advise how I can try and fix this myself?

I am very disappointed that mirroring is not supported on my macs. The fact that apple did not make this clear is only surpassed by the poor support who described my Mac as "old" and the request that I visit a feedback site to express my concerns. Th
