Getting a Message EVERY TIME I open a downloaded file

Okay, I download all the time for my Sims 2 game. The format of the files I download are .package files, and used a program called package installer to open. Every time I open one of the files, it gives me this stupid warning telling me that they might contain a program. Great. I know that. Is there any way to disable this stupid message?

Hi,
When I first started up my MacBook I accidentally left my homefolder named
something I didn't want. To correct that, my husband created another admin
account and then deleted the first one.
See this article:
*About file quarantine in Mac OS X v10.5 and v10.6*
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3662
It includes the following:
If you have multiple user accounts on your Mac, the user account that downloaded the file is the only user account that can remove the quarantine attribute to the file. All other user accounts can open the quarantine file, but they will be presented with the quarantine dialog box asking "Are you sure you want to open it?" every time they open the file.
Since the user account that originally downloaded and installed FireFox and Skype no longer exists, I would re-download these .dmgs from the internet using your current admin account, remove the old apps and re-install new ones from these new .dmgs, and run the apps at least once from the same admin account that downloaded and installed them. The quarantine should then be lifted, even if you later switch to a different account.

Why do I get a message every time I open an email to update the flash which I've done 4 times and restarted. Plus I can't attach anything since updating to 5.0

I have to use IE to get anything done. this is very annoying.

There are two different versions of Flash for Windows PC's. One for IE called the ActiveX version, and one for other browsers known as the Plugin version. Both of those versions of Flash should appear in the Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs.
Your listing of Installed Plugins doesn't show that you even have Adobe Flash installed for Firefox. 
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

TS3354 I have Windows 7, and previously downloaded HD Movies and TV shows. Now I get this message every time I try to download an HD version of any type. My computers/iPads all are 720/1080. How do I fix this?

Can someone tell me why I suddenly cannot download HD versions of shows/movies when I had no problem previously? Windows 7 and Apple TV. All my settings and devices are 720/1080 including my Ipad2.

Hi,
When you are looking at the small pictures in the organizer, you are seeing the thumbnails that were stored within the organizer catalog when you first imported them into the organizer. When you first imported the files, the organizer saved the location of that file and the pointer to the thumbnail. When you try to edit or print the image, the organizer can no longer find the image at the stored location - the file is missing.
You might like to read through this to see if it helps explain things to you
Photoshop Elements (PSE) knowledge base.
The changing drive letter is the most common cause when images are stored on an external drive.
I'm not sure what you mean about when you say "did not go back into categories like I had them on version 7".
If you updated to version 12 from version 7 on the same PC, there was no need to move any of the images so they should be in the same folders as before. The catalog should have been converted for you (if you allowed it) and so all your albums and tags should have been preserved.

Warning message every time I open an app

I ended a Creative Cloud subscription and then opened another one because I got a free year from one of my employers. Since the new subscription, I've been getting messages every time I open an application saying that Adobe is having trouble verifying my membership. It also give the amount of days remaining for me to verify it before eberything stops working. This is happening on both my desktop and my laptop. The only thing that I can think to do is uninstall everything and then reinstall so that Adobe is reinstalling everything on the new subscription. I wanted to know if this was the case before trying it because this would be a bit of a pain. I don't mind doing it if that's the answer to the problem. Whatever I have to do, I also need to know if it's something I have to do on both machines running the software. Thanks!

I keep getting this message every time that i start my computer, but i can still connect to the Internet, and do whatever i could do with a working router and modem.
The server 192-----etc. at WRT54GS requires a user-name and password.
Warning: This server is requesting that your user-name and password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection).
Then it asks for a user-name and password. What password!?!!!?!? WHAT USERNAME!??!??!?.......if anyone can help i would appreciate it.

the router password is admin by default. Leave the username blank. But for this issue you may check the security setting of your internet options. Disable it from there.

Does anyone know what "video rendering error: -50" means?   I am trying to back up a movie i made on iMovie and get that message every time, about 30 times...   OSX10.9.2, iMovie 10.0.3, Toshiba externals 2TB etc

Hi Babowa and Apple:
Thanks for helping me.   Here is my workflow:
I store any file that I save onto my external drives so that I don't fill up my main hard drive.....( I label each external hard drive by year + alpha, such as 14a, 14b etc.) Is that a problem?   Any suggestions?
I know iMovie works from the main iMac HD and therefore needs to find the file that I want in the external drive, such as when I "import" a file from an external such as 14a into iMovie that has been previously downloaded onto the external 14a (I download all SD cards & tapes to externals)......and it sounds like you're saying that is causing iMovie problems because the file is not so easily accessible for iMovie?
I assume that iMovie processes the file that I have "imported" into an "iMovie Event" on my iMac HD. I label that version as say "NLGE 3000E" for my 3000th movie, Event version, "events" that is always rough.
After I have imported media as an event and have labeled an event, "NLGE 3000E," then I go to "new movie" that I assume is a "project".....and I label that version "NLGE 3000P1"...."P" for "project" and "1" for the first edition....also to help me keep track of where my movies go.   I focus on "Projects" then when editing ...and watch which edition I am editing and which edition appears where.
I learned that I need to "share" all movies from "Projects" to save......and store my final versions on my external drive, 14a (eg) so that I am sure that I have a retrievable copy.   I try to share to YouTube from iMovie and succeeded 1/10 tries.
Evidently a movie is not saved unless it is in "theater"?
Please see next "reply" for other comments about retrieval.
Thanks.

I am really angry that I get this message every time I try to update Itunes.

What kind of gobbledegook is that? Are you or Microsoft crazy. Us computer users need simpler instructions. Or you need to write your programs so that they work.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Microsoft word is not responding. I get this message every time I try to close a Word document or do some other functions such as change margins or print. I just get the twirling ball. I'm using OSX on a imac. What do to?

Bummer! The only way I have ever been able to get rid of the dreaded twirling ball was to reboot....with the exception of one time only, when it actually was some super techie issue that was only resolved when they looked at it and did their magic.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
