How do I install things from the internet?

Hello,
I realise I'm posting twice and I'm sorry, but I realised I had another question. How do I download ANYTHING from the internet? With AIM I could just use iChat. But I'm wanting to download some other stuff...but when I click on the icon to install it on my desktop, Microsoft Excel pops open and it won't install. Please Help!
Thanks,
Sophie

Hello Sophie,
You need Stuffit Expander to expand compressed files so they can be opened.

How do I get downloads from the internet to open in something other then text edit?, How do I get downloads from the internet to open in something other then text edit?

Lots of times when I download files from the internet like games or something they will open up in text edit. When it comes up its just a bunch of letters and numbers, it won't actually run the application. How do I get the file to open up correctly and actually run?

Hi, do you have a link to one of these you downloaded that does this?
Basically you, in the Finder, do a Get Info on it, look for Open With & choose the proper application, but might these be Windows® only games?

How do I disable this - "Firefox.app" is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?

how do I disable this - “Firefox.app” is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?

If you want to open it confirm that you do. You will not be asked that question again after the first time you open it
Unless you are keeping Firefox in the .dmg it was downloaded in. That is to say, if you obtained Firefox in a .dmg, and you have kept the .dmg mounted, and are launching Firefox from the mounted .dmg, then you will ALWAYS get that warning. You should copy Firefox from the mounted .dmg to your Applications Folder (or anywhere you prefer), and then eject the mounted .dmg. Unless you need to install Firefox on another system, you can then delete the .dmg.

How do I stop click-thru "'Firefox' is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?"?

Every single time I launch Firefox 20 under Mac OS X 10.7.5 I get the click-thru warning message "'Firefox' is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?". How do I stop this? There are internet postings and previous postings about solving this using Terminal commands for OS X 10.5.x & 10.6.x, but these commands do NOT work in 10.7.x or 10.8.x. This seems to be a Firefox ONLY issue, and solving it by globally turning off OS X security features as recommended before in a previously closed thread seems like a really BAD solution. Is there a "Firefox only" solution, or will I just have to stop using Firefox?

I had upgraded to Firefox 20 using the automatic update process, so the last time I'd downloaded a .dmg and manually installed Firefox was a long time ago. I trashed Firefox 20, downloaded a new .dmg and manually transferred to Applications folder and this persistent message ended. I assume if I'd ever launched from the open .dmg the same error message would result, so the fix offered was a solution even though the cause was something different since I only used the automatic update process and never manually handled Firefox .dmg downloads.

And again exactly are you doing? How are you trying to attach them? The basic answer is to use the media browser in the lower left hand corner of the attach window under Media ==> photos. ==> iPhoto

Are yoy sure that Apeture is not in the Applications folder of the new system? If it is move it to the trash and the App Store will let you download Aperture from it.
You will need to make sure you use the same Apple ID you used to purchase it in the past.

You cannot.
The entire point of this is that you can redownload any and all of your past purchases.

That's easy.
2 methods:
1. Change the Startup Disk in System Preferences, then restart:
2. Hold down the "Option" key while starting or restarting the Mac. Then chosse the partition that you want to startup from.
The 1st mehtod is the quickest, because you don't have the additional step of choosing the drive. Plus, whatever you have selected in System Preferences becomes the default startup drive.

Music is not included in the backup (and nor are films or tv shows), only the contents of third-party apps are included. Did you not do File > Transfer Purchases when connected to your computer's iTunes to copy your iTunes purchases over, and/or have you not got a backup copy of your music somewhere e.g. on an external drive ?

I have no idea what the "freezer fix" is, nor why anyone would think temporary exposure to cold will somehow fix a hardware issue with a 100% solid state device. Also, actually freezing your iPhone may very well itself cause damage.
If you dropped it and wifi immediately failed to work, the odds are you inflicted physical damage to it - perhaps the antennae connection internally. You could try a simple reset and see if that helps, but if not, you need to take it into Apple for an evaluation and diagnosis.
If it has internal damage, since you dropped it, your warranty no longer applies. Apple does not repair iOS devices, the merely swap them for factory refurbished units (and send your damaged one back to the manufacturer in China for refurbishment or recycling). You would ahve to pay the out of warranty replacement fee (look on your country's Apple web site, under support for the iPhone for fees).
