How can be this virus or spyware?
Please explain it how can be this software virus or spyware downloaded from "oldapps.com"!? I download from this site normal old software now I can't WHY? On Chrome say too but CAN download anyway, I love Firefox and please fix it if I want download anyway!
Firefox based that on data from Google's Safe Browsing project. I'm not sure what's going on with that data, but several others users are reporting false positives as well. It could be that large hosting sites are tagged for hosting one piece of malware and this affects the reputations of other files on those sites which are not malware, but that's just a guess.
For the future, the developers are considering an option to override the block and get the file anyway (similar to the option in Chrome). It probably will be at least a few months before that appears because security-sensitive changes take time to design.
For now, if you think these files actually are safe, you could do one of the following when you discover a blocked download:
(1) Download the file using a different browser (yikes)
(2) Download the file using a downloader add-on that bypasses this security check. I heard about this in another thread but haven't tried it myself (and also, I don't know which add-ons to trust for this!).
(3) Disable the Safe Browsing feature ''temporarily'' to get the file, then turn it back on. There is a checkbox in the Options (Preferences) dialog:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
''Sorry, for Linux:'' "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences > Advanced
On the Security tab, it's the "Block reported attack sites" checkbox. The other checkbox relates to phishing sites and I don't think it affects downloads.
Sorry I don't have a better suggestion at the moment.

If your device has not been jailbroken, there can't be viruses or malware on the phone.

How can I remove viruses off my computer? I have mac OS X, but I clicked on a website on google and it didn't open. Instead the security program popped up and said that my computer is at risk of a crash and has detected several viruses!?!?! AAAAHHH!?!?!

It's probably the MacDefender scareware trojan horse. If you have this here is how to remove it.
1. Open Activity Monitor look for MacDefender process double click on it and hit quit or force quit.
2. Go to System Preferences, Go to accounts, Go to login items look for anything related to MacDefender hightlight it by clcking on it once. Then hit the minus sign to remove it.
3. Go to applications folder and drag MacDefender to the trash.
4. Open finder and do a search for Macdefender and remove anything you see related to MacDefender.
5. Open Spotlight (the little magnyfing glass in the menubar far right corner) and do a search for MacDefender.
6. Restart your computer and empty trash.
7. If you feel you need to have virus protection for your Mac use ClamXav. It's the recommended AV program for MacOSX. Hope this helps.

I have a problem in my iphone 4 with wi-fi after update to IOS6 please can help my how can solve this problem?
Nope
One needs to press the home and sleep / wake keys together for the phone to reset
The other thing I could recommend
Let the battery run out and the phone completely "die"
It may take a day or two with it not being used
Then plug it in to charge and see if there is any change in behavior
If you cannot get this to work - you may need to bring it to an Apple store -

Delete them and then download them from the desired Apple ID. This may require repurchasing paid applications.

Hi my iphone 4 is disabled how can solve this problem? help me please
hi my iphone 4 is disabled how can solve this problem? help me please
What do you mean by "disabled"? Disabled by entering the wrong passcode? If so, you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it to get it working again & remove the passcode:
Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -

If you wanted FaceTime, you should not have purchased your phone in the UAE. There is no way to add it back to your phone, as it has been permanently removed.

I recently purchased the newest nano. I have 3 other nano's and iPad iPhone, oh and iPod touch. When I plug in nano to my mac I get the message "iPod cannot update because it contains files that are used by another application. How can manage this?
dedonred wrote:

It means that nano was used on a third-party software or synced from different computer to sync music. Does that nano show in iTunes? If yes, then restore completely. If not, then you may need to head to Apple Store and see what they can do. -
I received an error message ipod is disable,please connect to itune, how can fix this problem, ipod would unlock.
As the mmessae says, connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you do not have the syncing comuter, place the iPod in recovery mod and then restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
For more info see:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen -

I lost my logic 8 pro serial number. I can't find the booklet that comes with the serial number. How can retrieve this? I upgraded from logic pro 7. I changed hard drives and now it keeps asking for the serial number. But I can't find it. Where can I request it? Thanks!
If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD
