Have recently acquired an additional black MacBook, and installed Snow Leopard onto it. Trying to get it to connect via a plug-in USB wifi unit (poor reception on Airport) I have an extra Network Location which does not work. How can I remove it?

Need to get a second hand black MacBook connected. Poor reception on Airport so tried a plug in wifi aerial. That didn't work, but now have a Network Location I can't get rid of. How do I remove it ?

Hello my ginger,
I tried what you suggested - but to no success. The problem came up when I was re-entering the new settings. If I left it as using DHCP it would run for a few seconds with no IP address, then drop in a 169.254 one which would not connect through. To overcome this I tried using the 'Using DHCP with manual address' option and entered in an address which it had set up from the clone boot. This appeared to be okay. When I then tried renewing DHCP lease sometimes that address held. When I tried connecting though - no sight of the internet, and the exclamation mark was across the wifi icon in the menu bar. If I switched it to Using DHCP it would randomly fall back to the 169.254 address.
The only significant differences I could see when cross checking all the settings info was in the WINS panel the NetBIOS had a slightly different configuration of the name - but as they ended in the same numbers I assumed they were the same. And, when looking under Keychain Access, in the System section list (it also appeared in the login section) additional info box they had different locations - 28 characters in four groups. I don't have a clue what this refers to. Also the allow access list in the boot clone included System Preferences, but did not in the Snow Leopard boot, so I added it in. With no success.
I am so frustrated I am thinking of giving up. I seen have loads of postings on the net about a variety of problems with wifi connection on Snow Leopard. I have version 10.6.3. Did it get any better in later Snow Leopard ? Or in any of the OS s after that ? It was always so easy and so solid under Leopard - why the h**l did they change it ?

I bought a new iphone in miami that does not work, how can i get it repaired by apple?

I live in Argentina. I bought a new iphone 3gs unlocked on January 20th, 2012, in Aventura Mall in Miami, Florida. I arrived in Buenos Aires last Saturday, 28th, turned it on, and it never worked. It shuts down, and freezes for long periods of time, strange things appear on the screen, basically, it DOES NOT WORK AT ALL.
I want to give it back, and get my money back, but there's no contact mail, or telephone I can call from Argentina. There are only 1-800 telephone numbers which I cannot use from here. Also, there is no official Apple Store or Repair Centre here in Buenos Aires.
I call to the Aventura Apple Store and a machine answers me, and does not re-direct my call to a repair centre or support centre.
I find no way to contact Apple regarding my problem. It seems I could only contact them if I lived in USA.
I can't believe I have bought an Apple product that does not work, and that I cannot claim to anybody. I have no way of asking for a replacement.
Thanks for your help.

This is the way of Apple all over the world, Their toll free telephone numbers for AppleCare support are all country specific. Apple does not provide an international support number anywhere.

I updated my ad to iOS 6 and now my App Store app does not work, how can I get it back

I updated my iPad 2 with the latest iOS 6 and now my App Store application does not work right. The only part that does work is the genius, and the purchased, but I cannot search for any new apps now have the categories come up. I don't know how else to search for apps, and I don't know how to download this as it was pre installed.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off".

My Norton tool bar No longer is visable and does not work, how can I fix this

My Norton 360 that saves all my passwords for me does not work on fire fox 4.0. How can I go back to the previous version? I was not given a warning that Norton 360 wouldn't work until after I had already down loaded 4.0, or I would not have downloaded it!
I did not know that the tool bar was going to disappear!

Norton says they are going to update 360 in April for the Firefox 4.0.
You can get Firefox 3.6.16 here: <br />

My iPod nano (newest version) screen lights up but does not work how can I fix this?

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you for your time

Did you already try to reset the iPod?
How to reset an iPod nano (6th generation)
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down button simultaneously for at least eight seconds or until the Apple logo appears. You may need to repeat this step.
If the above step did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.

I've tried to fix as per your FAQ instructions, but Zeon does not work, how can I make ADOBE my default to bypass ZEON?

I can not open many things b/c Zeon Plus doesn't work. It is not shown when I open/check current plug-ins - it's listed as unknown. I would prefer to have Adobe, as it doesn't crash all the time. How can I change this?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Since I updated Firefox my contacts list from Yahoo does not work; how can I get it to work?

When I try to go to the Contacts portion of my Yahoo account, the contacts page appears but when I try to put a contact into the search place, nothing happens. The Calendar works and the Email page works. I can get to the Contacts page through Internet Explorer but I prefer using Firefox. I have the latest version of Firefox.

Update firefox to the latest version. If necessary use http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/.
Some problems have been fixed in Firefox 18.0.2 it may help to update to that version.
*use http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ and see also [[Install Firefox on Windows]]
* CARE you do not need to uninstall Firefox first and do NOT use any option that offers to delete personal information, because you will destroy bookmarks and passwords.

My Secure Empty Transh does not work, How can I fix it?

When I open Trash, it displays all the files that are there to be deleted. However, when I select from Actions the Secure Empty Transh, the computer launches the application to empty trash, it asks me if I want to delete unlocked items or all items. Independently of what option I select, the program closes and all the files are where they were before. Any ideas on what to do?

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.
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.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

I would like to create the a swatch, add it to the library and import to the swatch panel. The help pages available relate to earlier versions of Muse, which does not work with the 2014.2 release version that I have. I have created a library folder, imported the colour swatch as just 4 colours as a mulib file. I drag the four colours on to the muse page in design view but that is as far as I get. Can anyone help? Thanks

I don't know since I don't share anything. You'll have to peruse the help files and check the permissions and ACLs on the Shared folder. According to the permissions on the Shared folder everyone can R&W. If you want those to be inherited by everything dropped into the folder, add an ACL for

According to Roaring Apps, there is a version of Protools compatible with Lion. But you may need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to buy either Lion or ML on MAS. It looks like you need to get up-to-date with your OS and the apps too.
