    After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

    Got it! Thanx.  What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

    Please take the Mac to  Apple store to have it checked out.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
    After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
    The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
    Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
    After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
    There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
    Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
    In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
    In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
    contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.

  • ITunes could not update this iPhone because of an unknown error occurrence (24)

    Type Phone iPhone 4g cdma
    Please, help
    When I update my phone show me this letter: ITunes could not update this iPhone because of an unknown error occurrence (24)

    I don't think that's an iTunes error code; sounds like a Windows one: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310123
    I would remove iTunes and all its components completely, reinstall, and try again. Try on another computer if you can also.

  • Several purchases not downloading to iPhone and ipad

    Several purchases not downloading to iPhone and ipad - just get an "unable to download message" also can't access previous purchased audiobooks in the purchased section, it ask's me to purchase again?

    Hi ...
    Try resetting the devices.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that didn't help, test on one of the devices.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    If helped on one device, do the same for the other.

  • Has Adobe and Apple had any meaningful discussions on Flash Player not working on iPhone and iPad?

    Several applications I try to use on my iPhone and iPad says, "Apple restricts use of technologies required by products like Adobe Flash Player. Until Apple eliminates their restrictions, Adobe cannot provide Flas Player for the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. It would be nice if Adobe and Apple would solve their issues so we can use Adobe Flash Player.

    Yeah, it's probably not a driver thing.  If you haven't rebooted already, definitely do that.  It might just be that the graphics hardware is in a bad state.
    The last thing we shipped was December 9th, so it's not like Flash Player changed.  If these symptoms just started recently, it seems unlikely that a recent change to Flash is the root-cause.  It's possible that Chrome might have pushed a change since then, but I talked to the Chrome guys yesterday and they didn't mention anything about a widespread video playback problem.  They have really excellent telemetry, so they usually know pretty quickly when things break. 
    It might be that your Chrome install is somehow damaged, and you could do a complete uninstall/reinstall of Chrome to see if the issue goes away.  You can also disable hardware acceleration in Chrome itself (it's under Preferences > Advanced > System > Use hardware acceleration if available) to see if that helps.
    Is the issue isolated to a specific video or video site/sites?  Does it happen in either Internet Explorer or Firefox (they're both significantly different copies of Flash Player, which would be an interesting data point)?

  • I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?

    I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?
    The file has 4 artboards with webpage designs. I tried to take two of the artboards, create a separate doc with those two, and save, but the result was the same.
    However, I am able to save simpler, smaller files.
    I need to not lose these files and I am afraid to quit and restart and lose my unfinished work.
    Any advice?

    What happens if you choose this option?

  • Is there some way to create a mirror image backup of iPhone and iPad ?

    Is there some way to create a mirror image backup of iPhone and iPad ? At this time our company has over 250 devices that are constantly being upgraded and passed down the line. it would speed things up considerably if there was a way to mirror the old device and then restore it on the new Phone or iPad. I don't care about any of the other features in iTunes, i just need something to speed up the process without having to walk them thru reintering their passwords, redownloadeing all the apps that didn't transfer ect.

    You would need to tell each user to make sure they backup their devices either thru itunes or icloud.
    With a company like yours, you should suggest backing up to icloud.
    IOS backup http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766  then when the user gets a new phone, you or they can just restore from their icloud.
    The only hard part would be if the user has music (non purchased from itunes) which they would need to sync to itunes to get back on their phone.
    there is no easy process for this.  I'm in the same boat as you but way fewer people to deal with.

    Check that you don't have more than one account in your contacts, such as 'iCloud' and 'On My Phone'.
