Help! Senior citizen needs help in closing out a program?

I am woefully ignorant about some things on my computer. Trying to look at photos from a disc. Ran it through virus program and it is clean.
Clicked on first photo which opened yesterday..but today it is not opening. All I am seeing is that little revolving disc in colors. Cannot close
program or eject disc or anything. What should I do? Shut down and restart? Is there any other way to shut that particular program only?
Thanks!

to force close a non responsive program,Press Command-Option-Esc, then select the unresponsive app from the Force Quit window that appears, and click Force Quit

I would log into the account through iTunes on your computer and supply any missing information.

This is a second try to get help. I need help to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop cc 2014

Bridge is not working well, I need to reinstall Photoshop cc 2014 . Someone from Communities was suppose to help me.

Hi John,
I used the chat "Creative chat support" this afternoon at around 14:40
and the person, Karthik M , gave me a link to Technical Support. I
guess he could not help me, but he said he understood the issue. With
the link "Help, Adobe Installation problems", I will follow the
instructions to clean ps cc2014 with CCleaner and reinstall the app.
It looks quite complicated but I will give it a try and hopefully succeed.
You have to understand when reading my previous messages, the issue is
no longer "Retreiving Photoshop CC" but reinstalling Phoshop 2014 to try
to repair Bridge.
Thanks for caring,
Suzanne Lanthier

Senior lady needs help getting cordless phones set...

Hello Everyone,
I have been successful making calls on Skype but I need to get my cordless phones set up with my home number on Skype. I purchased a Linksys Internet Phone Adapter and it shows it is getting power. But there is no light for Phone# 1 where I have the phone cord hooked up.
This is the way I have it hooked up:
A/C power to back of adapter
Regular phone line wire in Phone#1 from adapter to my cordless base unit
Internet cable wire from adapter to my internet router
The CD had no instant setup instructions on it or how to get the drivers off. I found the model number but couldn't figure out how to get the required info in to my computer.
Can somebody walk me through how to set this up? I'm an 80 yr old lady and all these PDF files looks like it would take somebody with an engineering degree to figure them out. Do you remember that old commercial....."Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!" Well.....that's sorta me.
Can someone please help me?

The PAP2T is not compatible with Skype's standard service. It is only compatible with SIP providers and is usually more difficult to configure as well. Skype does support SIP in a business environment with additional hardware at a greater expense, unfortunately that solution really won't work for you. The only standalone device that I'm aware of that is still compatible with Skype is the Freetalk Connect Me (Talk-12xx). It is similar to the device you have but it is designed to work solely with Skype's standard service.
I cover the requirements a bit here:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Hardware/FreeTalk-1200-requires-no-monthly-payment-to-operate/td-p/386...
There is also a walkthrough of that device here:
http://freetalk.me/productsupport/ata/
You can purchase it from the following locations:

Help! I need my language Cd out of my library.

I bought this Brazilian Portuguese book that came with an audio cd. I imported the cd into my library to listen to the audio on my ipod. When I tell my ipod to sync, the audio tracks play from time to time. I want them to go somewhere so that they will only play when I want them to.
Also, this is off topic, but if you could help I would really appreciate it. When I put my ipod touch to sleep and leave it for awhile, I can come back two hours later and it will be shuffling my songs. I don't know why it does this, and I can't seem to fix it.

First, you should consolidate your library. In iTunes go to *+File > Library > Organize Library...+* then check both +consolidate files+ and +upgrade to iTunes Media organization+ . This will copy all your iTunes files into the iTunes folder and structure your podcasts, music, movies, etc into their own folders.
This suggestion works with iTunes 9.0.2.
Next, your off-topic question. First thing, you should probably shut down your Touch. Then reboot it. You do this by pressing and holding the 'sleep' button. This helps mostly with minor niggles.
If that doesn't work, connect the device to your Mac and when it displays in iTunes, select Restore — *after backing up*. This will restore your iPod to factory settings so be sure you have everything backed up and note that any photos, music, podcasts, etc will have to be added again.
See how that works... good luck.

HELP: Migrating and need help sorting out twin emails!

I have a G5 for work and one for my home office.
The emails on my office G5 are MOSTLY the same as those on my home G5.
I.e. some of the emails I have BOTH at work and at home, some I dont.
Now I want to put all these emails on ONE machine.
And how can I do that without either
a) getting a mega-huge in/outbox with twin versions of many emails
b) manually sorting twin emails
Is there a program that 100% safely can identify clone emails and delete them?
Or is there another, more clever method?

It isn’t clear what the situation really is. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may or may not find useful.

HELP MY IPOD NEED HELP

when i turn on my ipod on the coution sign and the sad ipod logo comes up .i try downloading the new updates but when i plug it in to my computer the low bat.sign comes up and dont move i trying resetting ipod but nothing changes could some one help me

Hello,
If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
Intermediate Level
A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“Partition Magic”.
C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
Tips
a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iPod updater.
b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”
Advance Level
A. Diagnostic mode solution
If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
B. Format your iPod with a start disk
I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk
http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
Just in case that you are at the following situation
Your iPod warranty is expired
You don’t want to pay any service charges
You are prepared to buy a new one
You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
Warning ! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
Last Resort Level
1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery replacement (with pictures)
http://www.kokopellimusic.us/KM_instructions.htm
Have I tried this myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.
2. Do a search on Google and some topics on this discussion forum about “Sad iPod”
What should I do with my iPod? Send it or keep it?

HELP! I NEED HELP WITH MY PASSWORD

I RECENTLY PURCHASED MY IBOOK FROM AN INDUVIDUAL AND I CANT SET UP AN EMAIL ADDRESS OR ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE IT SAYS THAT MY PASSWORD IN INCORRECT.THE USERNAME THAT POPS UP IS MY NAME.I NEED TO FIND OUT HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.ANY HELP? THANKS!

First off, all caps is considered shouting. Bad idea.
As for your actual question -- a bit more information is required. Do you need to change the password for your user account? Your user account is what you login to when you turn on your computer. It might be setup so you don't have to enter your username and password when you boot up. It is set this way if you can turn it on, and when it's done starting, you see a desktop and dock and can use your programs. On the other hand, you might have to enter your username (either by typing or clicking on your icon) and then your password. After doing that you will be at the desktop.
If you can't get to the desktop be, it means you aren't typing the password correctly. Passwords are case sensitive -- perhaps you just need to turn caps-lock off -- e.g., "PASSWORD" is not the same as "password" and if your password is set to something like the latter, typing the former will always fail. If you don't know the password, you can reset it by booting from the system install discs (put in system disc, hold down "c" while turning on the computer, ignore the open popup regarding installation, from the menu, choose the option for resetting the password, choose the user you wish to reset, and then enter a new password).
On the other hand, if you get to your desktop and can use programs, the above is not your problem. Instead, you are having a problem loging into your mail account because you don't know your password. In that case, your only option is to contact the mail service provider and ask for your password. That issue has nothing to do with your operating system.

Help me please need help on my java applet

hi there i have started a final year project on java.
it is a simple drawing applet however i need to be able to
save my drawings to a local hard disk. i have tried going through the tutorial but i dnt get it. please can any1 out there help me. my email address is [email protected] if you give me your email address i will mail you my program and maybe you could help me
Aj

If you want an applet to write to user's local hard drive, there are many securiy issues that need to be resolved. How to resolve these issues depend on whether the applet uses a plugin (swing) or the browser's native JVM (no plugin, uses AWT only). In any event, the applet will probably need to be signed and the user's browser must be correctly configured. The following link gives you some detail on how to sign an applet that doesn't use swing:

If the computer is second hand, some sort of UI modifications could have been made which disabled or changed the behavior of the window control buttons.
To help make some drive space, you might need to clear out some caches on the system. The application OnyX can help you with tasks like that and many others (possibly including fixing your window button behavior). To clean a bit more space, I suggest using Monolingual to remove languages you don't need, and you can also remove processor architectures you don't need - but be sure which architecture you have before you use that function.

Moviestar --
Welcome to Apple Discussions !
There is no Safari previous to 10.2.8.
That's why you can't find it.
10.0.4 was a beta version of Jaguar, I believe.
You're talking about a 2001-2002 version.
You would need to buy Jaguar, but since we're now
2 major versions past that, I wouldn't really recommend it.
Panther or Tiger is the way to go. Tiger, preferably.
