Every time I try to update an app or download from iTunes a message appears 'unknown problem has occurred' please help as to why?

Every time I try to update an app or download from iTunes a message appears 'unknown error has occurred' can anyone help as to why this would happen and how to fix the problem? Thanks

Are you using a proxy or a VPN to connect to the internet? If you are, this is possibly the reason why. I suggest using anothe connection which is not a proxy.

Every time I try to open the firefox application, it won't load and pages and the application freezes. How can I fix this?

When I open the application, there is one tab that says, "Connecting..." After several seconds, the program crashes and remains that way until I force quit the application. I tried restarting my computer. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, and nothing worked.

I had the same problem. I went into software updates and updated security, and two other updates (can't remember exact updates) then restarted my macbook. My macbook wouldn't start!
I found information about restting the SMC (System Management Controller).
Unplug the power adapter.
Remove the battery.
Hold the power button down for 5 secs.
Reconnect the battery and power adapter.
Press the power button.
My Macbook started up and I opened up itunes and the itunes store opened up with images.
I think the resolution was the software updates, but I'm not 100% sure so I included every step that was made.

TS1702 what do you do if every time you try to open an app it asks for your password first?

See if this helps.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in again. See if that cures the problem.

My Firefox seems to be crashing every time I try to open multiple windows that seem to load slowly, overwhelm Firefox and make the whole thing crash.

For example, it seems to happen a lot while on the Entertainment Weekly website, (though it happens often on others as well). If I am reading a page and try to pre-load several other articles into new tabs to read as well, it sometimes seems that opening more than a couple of tabs will cause my browser to crash completely while they are trying to load.
Here are my last five crash reports, if that helps:

Unfortunately the linked crash report wasn't send or is empty (@ EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump) and doesn't include any data, so it is not possible to find the cause of the crash.

Invader game, after I got charged for buying things that help on the game. Now the app is not working! It keeps shutting down for no reason every time I try to open the app! What to do?

what can I do for apps that are no longer want to work while other stel using it just fine?

Yes....always a good idea to say what you've already tried! Have you actually tried what I suggested though? If that doesn't work, the only other suggestions are deleting the game and reinstalling, or contacting the game developer.

Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Speed grade CS6 crashes every time I try to open it

I looked up my Speed Grade CS6 and it stated it worked with OS6.8 and OS7. Well, mine will not open, it crashes every time i try to open it. I have and older Mac Pro 1.1 and can back door it and different processor but am I wasting my time and money I don't have? Help!

Not on Mac myself, but I've seen several issues on new installs that can be a pain. First ... there's some permissions on the Mac that can with some of the OS releases get set wrong ... similar to the way on the PC side of things some folks have to set it to "run as Administrator account" or something like that. Sorry but I don't know the precise language or location of that setting.
Second, on installation some times there can be garbage created in pref settings that can cause this ... trying to remember ... it's I think holding shift-alt- while starting the program that gets it by the prefs & setup files, which sometimes fixes this.
Third, at times you just need to uninstall/reinstall. Best done using Adobe's CC Cleaner tool, as it deletes all the preference/setup files that typical OS uninstalls don't get. And are realistically the things you most want GONE to fix this.

I installed the latest itunes update, 11.4.0.18. Now itunes crashes every time I try to open it.

I installed the latest itunes update, 11.4.0.18. Now itunes crashes every time I try to open it.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]] 
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

I purchased adobe acrobat but every time I try to open it I get a message saying trial has expired

I purchased adobe acrobat but every time I try to open it I get a message saying trial has expired.
Acrobate downloaded successfully. no problem there. but it won't open. only gives me the error message that trial has expired and do I want to buy it. i already bought it so... i'm stuck. I have tried shutting everything down and starting again (twice) still the same error. tried re-downloading. no help. any ideas?

Is it giving you any option to sign in or license this software. If yes click on sign in/License this software to proceed further and activate it. If it is perpetual license activate by entering your serial key and signing in and if it is a subscription then just sign in with your Adobe it an dit will get activated.

PSE 10 Keeps freezing EVERY TIME I try to open it.

I have a less than 3 year old MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.3. I purchased elements 10 NEW in october 2012.
EVERY TIME I try to open elements 10 Editor, it freezes before I can do anything. I have looked in other discussions. Tried to restart from another thread I tried the following...
"Solution 1:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
Solution 4:
On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere else.
Now launch PSE and check if it works.
For related post for Twain please see this:http://forums.adobe.com/message/2954743#2954743
Thanks,
Garry"
1 - I have to force quit
2 - Held down for MORE than 5 minutes. All I got was the spinning beachball. Back to #1
3 - Don't have anti-virus
4 -0 There is no "twain" plug-in
I have also uninstalled and re-installed elements 10. That didn't work either.
Now what????

For anyone else who stumbles upon this thread....
Took the computer to Apple Genius Bar. They found the problem. In the Applications folder>Utilities>Activity Monitor, open and select System Memory at the bottom. Sort by %CPU. Find the icons showing at the left of the list. The ones at the top take the most memory. If whatever you are working on works way too slowly, you may find something above it (or bouncing around-up and down-on the list that is causing the problem (Mail and FireFox in my case). Quit those applications and things should speed up or, in my case, not freeze.

"Safari Quit Unexpectedly" Every time I try and open it?

Every time I try and open my safari, I get a problem report for Safari saying "Safari Quit Unexpectedly" and I can either hit "OK" which closes the box, "Reopen" which just brings that message up again, or "Show Details" which gives me a long list of coding, that I don't understand one bit. This has been happening for almost 2 weeks! Please help!!

If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates
if it's not already checked.
