Followed Format Instructions For Iomega Prestige 1 TB USB 2.0...
Okay. I thought I was doing a good thing. I got a Iomega Prestige 1 TB USB 2.0. I followed the instructions for formatting it, which I think called for using Mac Extended version of some type...I put a bunch of stuff on it and shipped it off to my parents. They have an old Microsoft PC running Windows XP. They connected it up, but they are saying it doesn't show up as a drive on Windows...Is there something they can do on their side in order to be able to read it or must I start over? I would like for them to be able to read the drive and write to it as a small back up.
Thanks for any feedback and insights.
Ask them to install the MacDrive trial, copy off all the files, and reformat the drive. If that doesn't work, start over and either don't format the drive or choose MS-DOS as the format.

I imported an already paginated text from Word into Pages to format it for a book. I don't wan the first few pages numbered, so I've been trying to begin page one at the beginning of chapter one. I've followed the instructions for changing page numbers, i.e., click next to page you want to change; in dialogue box click "start new header /footer; a new section is created; click Setup, click Section; in page numbering section, select "Start at" and enter a new starting number." In trying to do this often I can't get the dialogue box, or when I do, I get a new section that commences with a blank page. Or, the dialogue box that should allow me to change numbers never appears. Help!
Is this for the Mac or iOS?
You only have iOS 7.0.4 as atag.

Having followed the instructions for "if you have never synced your device to itunes" and my computer displayed the message that the device has been restored, my phone is still saying its disabled and I should connect to itunes. What do I do now??
Put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

If that still fails, you'll probably need to go to an Apple Store or call Apple Support for further assistance.

If you are using the old Firefox Start Page - http://www.google.com/firefox - Google has something messed up on that page. I'm starting to wonder if they are charging Mozilla for the click-thru's to the Firefox download page??
The new default Firefox Start Page / homepage - '''about:home''' - doesn't give users that incorrect message. -
I use an Macbook from 2006 with OS X 10.7.5
MyDay starts up every time I switch on. I don't use it, so want to remove it from the list of programs which start automatically. I have followed all instructions for doing this, and have of course unlocked and relocked the relevant page in Systems Preferences, but the instruction never 'sticks', and MyDay still starts every time. Anyone know what to do?Check StartupItems...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/StartupItems
Click Go. If you see any reference to MyDay, delete it. That does not delete the app Just keeps it from launching when you startup your Mac.
Just to be sure, you checked System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items ??
Unlocking or locking the padlock icon only prevents other users from changing your preferences. -
I am following the instructions for removing and reinstalling itunes because I had a "msvcr80.dll missing from your computer" error. I have uninstalled itunes and apple software update but the next one in order "apple mobile device support" will not uninstall. According to the instructions, that one has to be removed before I can do the rest. Would love any help I can get.
Hello and thanks so much for your quick reply. I am at a standstill, because I have done those things already and it has not worked. The repair install procedure seemed to take place quickly, but the same thing happened again when I tried to uninstall it the program after that.... It seems to proceed, then the progress bar goes backward, and there it still is!
When I downloaded the Microsoft Fixit program and asked it to uninstall the Apple Mobile device Support, it started but then got stuck and I had to shut my computer off, as it froze everything up!
I'm hoping you can help..... This seems to be a problem with the new version, and it's frustrating, because I can't use Itunes on my computer at all till we find a solution.
Perhaps if I try to restore my computer to before the Itunes 11.1.4 uodate?
Thanks so much for your help,

I already have flashplayer on my mac. I have been using online video tutorials for learning, but suddenly all my YouTube vodeos say "plug-in blocked". I follow the instructions for installing or updating, but nothing has helped. I have looked everywhere in Safari help with no success. How can I restore this plug-in, PLEASE?

I followed all instructions for redeeming a coupon for movies. Inserted digital disc as instructed and manually entered redemption code. Nothing. Laptop camera refused to take picture. Entered everything manually but instructions keep saying insert digital copy of the disc. I did. Instructions keep repeating. I'm in movie ****.
Hey fattymoko,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I imagine that would be frustrating, to not be a able to redeem an iTunes Digital Copy with the Digital Copy code and disc. Did the movie come with more than one disc or has the code been used already? Try taking a look at the article linked below, it provides tips that will resolve most issues redeeming an iTunes Digital Copies.
Redeeming an iTunes Digital Copy - Apple Support
Having trouble with iTunes Digital Copy?
If your Digital Copy DVD or Blu-ray is damaged, scratched, or missing its redemption code or Digital Copy disc, contact the appropriate studio for help:
20th Century Fox
Disney
Lions Gate
Paramount
Sony Pictures
Universal
Warner Bros.
If you're having trouble redeeming your Digital Copy code or downloading your iTunes Digital Copy, contact iTunes Store Support.
Learn more
iTunes Digital Copies aren't available in every country.
You must use a Digital Copy code in the iTunes Store country where the packaging says it will work. For example, you'll need a U.S. iTunes Store Apple ID to use a code from a U.S. DVD, and you'll need an Australian iTunes Store Apple ID to use a code from an Australian DVD.
Take care,

I have to adjust my cookies and I found the instructions on your site. When I followed the instructions, I found that it seems for an older version and not the new one. The privacy settings are not the same as they once were and I can't make any adjustments to may cookies except to delete them.
What I could do was go to the 'Firefox' tab at the top left corner, go to history, Clear recent history, and so on. I can't make any adjustments to a single cookie. It's all or nothing.
Are there any other ways for me to make the adjustments?To restore the classic menu bar, you can do any of these:
orange Firefox button > Options > Menu Bar
tap the Alt key > View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
right-click a blank area of the tab bar or navigation bar > Menu Bar -
While downloading an album in from the Store, one song was interrupted. I have followed the instructions from apple about resuming the download, but every time I do so the same error message appears saying the download was interrupted. I am having no connection problems, have rebooted my computer, downloaded the lates version of iTunes, etc., yet nothing changes. Has anyone else experienced this, and are there any workarounds. Sadly the problem hit on one of the best songs of the album.
I had the same problem so (assuming under the Purchased items in the Store you have a song stuck at 'Downloading'):
I went to Music, then Artists.
From there I chose the album.
The song that failed to download had the cloud symbol next to it.
I clicked the cloud symbol and the song completed the download for me.
(Please note this was in iTunes for Windows - I expect it to be similar in iTunes for Apple)

Code Formatting Instructions for Developer Forums
Although this topic only applies to the two Developer forums, the need for some upfront code formatting instructions in those forums is desperate. There may be hundreds of threads which include one or more messages on this subject. In my case alone, I've posted at least a dozen messages each containing these three lines:
Paste your code here.
Of course a quick search of either Dev forum on the keys +code formatting+ will find the above right away, but those who need help the most don't know code requires special formatting so won't be making that search. For the same reason, neither the excellent instructions in the User Tips Library nor the pertinent threads in this forum are likely to be discovered before they're needed. The +Help & Terms of Use+ FAQ might seem to be a good place for the instructions, but this has been proposed so many times before I'm sure it will never happen. The need is confined to the Dev forums afterall.
I think the solution would be a permanent post (similar to +How to Post a new Topic+ in this forum) at the top of both Dev forums. I don't think most developers want to see instructions on any other topic at the top of the forums, but a brief note titled +How to Post Code+ might make everyone's life easier.
Assuming most of the other developers agree, how could we make this happen?Thanks so much for helping with this, Nubz!
Joerg's instructions are excellent. I refer to them often and I've had them bookmarked since I found Apple Discussions last year. The new Code section is great!! Very clear!
Now we just need to find a way to get users to that page. Our problem has never been with users who are interested enough in Apple Discussions to visit the Tips Library. The unformatted code is coming from first-time users--not necessarily novice coders, but programmers of all skill levels who aren't coming here to learn about the forums or relate to the community. These folks are focused on their current project, may have found no answers anywhere else, and arrive here with tunnel vision. Often there's a language problem as well.
The newly arrived OP will often start the thread with a page of unformatted code. Those of us with eyes used to filling in the missing brackets, indentation etc. can sometimes decypher the mess, but usually we need to give formatting instructions and ask the OP to repost. The frequency of this scenario has been increasing. Lately I've been posting those instructions almost once every day.
Of course that's a good sign! We've been giving good service down there and the number of newcomers seems to be reflecting that. A big percentage have turned into regulars, so I think we have a very healthy forum. It's just the formatting cycle gets old, and the time and bytes add up too.
My suggestion is this:
One yellow moderator announcement that stays in the first position on the topic page for both dev forums. The subject line is:
To format code: Paste your code here
The user doesn't even need to open the message. Only developers will see this. No change to the page header is needed. If the user does open the message, a link will be provided to Joerg's tips.

As my question asks, I followed instructions for creating an APP TAB for my web mail account, and succeeded but each time I close and re-open Firefox, the app tab disappears. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong please?
For better or worse, I think it's part of the design for the app tabs to be window specific. I know my first reply didn't solve your problem, but that was one way that worked for me to get the app tabs back when I restarted Firefox. Also I noticed the tag for this post is Firefox 4. I've only tried it with Firefox 5.
I agree with you that the way it's working isn't ideal. For the time being, I've stopped using the app tabs. Maybe they'll fix/improve it soon. -
I follow the instructions for canceling my membership, but it is a dead end. Won't let me cancel.
And now this box pops up. Am I supposed repeat my question here also? Ok
I want to cancel my membership as I don't want to pay $49 a month for CC. Following the instructions still doesn't allow me to cancel.This is an open forum, not Adobe support... You need Adobe support to cancel a subscription

Not able to sync movie purchased from itunes from imac to ipad2.
try this:
redmatter
This helped meRe: not copied to iPad because you are not authorized for it on this computer
Nov 20, 2011 10:41 AM (in response to hoppo72)
One workarwound is to do the following:
1. Remove the digital content from iTunes (but keep the files)
2. Rename all .m4v files to .mp4 files
3. Add the files back to iTunes
This seems to fix the problem for me
Hope this helps -
I was having with internet and web connections just stopping or freezing after downloading firefox4. I tried following your dirrections that said to turn it off then back on. It turned off but would not go back on. I couldn't connect to anything so went back to my old search engine. I couldn;t even send you information concerning the problem until I got your recent email. The dirrections are really hard to follow for people who are not great on computer lingo. Can you write it out step by step?
Press '''START + R''' in keyboard to open the '''Run''' box(or '''start''' then '''run''') , type in the RUN box '''%APPDATA%''' (or copied in just i wrote, bold text) then click '''OK'''. A Windows Explorer window will appear, in this window, choose '''Mozilla''' then '''Firefox''' then '''Profiles'''. Each folder in the "Profiles" folder (e.g., "xxxxxxxx.default") is a profile on your computer (maybe is one file if you have only one profile).
see for more info : [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile folder - Firefox ]
try it, good luck
thanks again
