How do I fix safari freeze on 28Aug2011 brand new 13" Air, without 'force quit'

OSX Lion on a new Maxbook 128, 4GB air.
Safari freezes the last action I recall was sizing the window to full screen. I am still able to access menu items, but cannot enter text.

Just curios to see if you found a fix?
Mine does the exact same thing - updated to latest Lion release (10.7.1) Still locks up randomly...
seems that the graphic/elements are not updating as i can still type in search field - but nothing happens.
then have to force quit.

How do I fix the sound on my brand new 4th gen iPod touch?

I recently ordered a refurbished 4th gen iPod touch and it arrived today. Everything seems to be working fine except the sound. I'll play a song or video and the sound will either come on for a couple seconds sounding distorted, or not come on at all. I've already restarted the iPod a few times and am currently trying to restore it. Is there anything else I can do to fix it?

From speaker?
From headphones?
From both?
Tried another pair of headphones?
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

HT201272 How do I transfer castleville from Ipad3 to a new Ipad air without loosing all purchased items and data on game

how do I

Oh no, I've tried to backup my iPod on my old computer before and it won't let me - the bar just stays in one place and doesn't move!
I have found this hidden file called Application Data (C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data). I have a feeling this is where my backup files are stored... I did manage to make a backup when I didn't have many apps, but that was over a year ago...
If I copy these files onto the new computer in the same place, maybe it would let me do a backup without wiping everything.....?!
(Note: the location might end up being slightly diffrent, because I have a Windows XP now and we're getting a Windows 7. But if I copy all the files in this folder, maybe the ipod won't recognise that it is a different itunes library?)

Debug console is mainly for use by the website developer to debug their own sites - so unless you are trying to debug your own site then I'd leave it switched off.
All versions of iOS 5 have been available for the first gen iPad, it's iOS 6 that you can't update to on it. If you want to update to iOS 5.1.1 (the highest version that it supports) then you should be able to do so via your computer's iTunes : https://discussions.apple.com/message/22061024#22061024

When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID.

PS elements 12 freezing when doing selective color and having to force quit on Mac.

PS elements 12 freezing when doing selective color and having to force quit on Mac. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times and that did not work. I've changed preferences and that did not work and i tried hitting shift+command and option at start up of program and that did not fix the problem either.

Hi,
We sincerely apologize for the problem customers are facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
Plug-in installation instructions:
1. Close Photoshop Elements
2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
• For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
• For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
vaishali

How do i move my itunes image to a new PC? Without losing my Data

How do i move my itunes image to a new PC? Without losing my Data

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

How do i install boot camp on a brand new 3tb iMac osx 10.8.2

how do i install boot camp on a brand new 3tb iMac osx 10.8.2?

Note: At this time BootCamp doesn't support 3TB drives - this is due to a memory allocation issue with Windows. Check out this article on a/an (unreliable) work around. I say unreliable because some people are reporting success and others failure. At this time if you really need Windows it probably would be better to use virtualization software like Parallels, VMWare, or VirtualBox.

How can I use migration assistant to load my new Macbook Air?

How do I use migration assistant to load my new Macbook Air? Can this be done only wirelessly?

No, you can transfer from a Mac wirelessly, wired ethernet, Thunderbolt or Firewire. Your older Mac must have the same connection, but you can use adaptors if necessary. For example, you can use an Ethernet cable with an Ethernet-Thunderbolt adaptor if your older Mac has an ethernet port.
Wireless tends to be pretty slow (can take many hours) so it's recommended to choose a wired connection whenever you can.

How do I fix safari on my new macbook pro?

When I open a page in Safari, for example Netflix, and then click on a button, a new window pops up trying to sell me something, for example a "Macfixer" - no matter how many times I close the window, or how many times I empty safari cache and reset it, the problem persists. I have reset the preferences at least a dozen times, and each time I open safari, they have bounced back to "allow cookies", etc.

Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and AdwareMedic.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

Safari will lock up on my MacBook Pro. Force quit doesn't help. When I try to restart the computer, I get an error saying Safari cancelled the restart. I have to press the power button to shut down the computer.

While I'm using safari, it will freeze up. When I force quit safari and reopen it, I find that I'm back to where I was when I did the force quit and safari remains locked up. When I try to restart the computer, I get a pop up that says that safari cancelled my restart. I then press the power button to shut down the computer. When I reboot the computer and open safari, I see all the tabs and windows that were opened when this issue began, only this time safari isn't frozen. This problem started yesterday.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? Is there a fix for this problem?

Try Resetting Safari: Open Safari. Cick on the name Safari in the menu bar. In the drop down menu click Reset Safari.

Freezing problems with brand new Toshiba P500.

Hi All;
I bought a brand new Toshiba Laptop from Myers Melbourne in June 2010 and its running the base version of WINDOWS-7 64 bit. Its a Satellite P500 PSPGSA-01G003 ( large 18.4 inch screen ) which "does not exist" in the model product listing on this website.
Also it has 4Gb RAM and 2x 500GB HDD. It ran fine for the first 4 weeks or so and then slowly and intermittently it started freezing and not shutting down in the normal manner - generally within a couple of hours of when i opened LARGER size files. On switch on it asked to "restart windows normally" and whilst in the process of running a program, it either ran very, very, very, very, slow ( hanging )or just froze altogether - with only the mouse cursor moving on the screen. To clear the problem and hard reset of the power switch was the only thing that "fixed" it.
I spoke to others I know at work who have Win-7 (as many are clued up with IT and work with it) and they think "I'm crazy" as they have not experienced on their own WIN-7 OS at home.
As the model I have is not specifically listed by Toshiba, I cannot be sure if I can update the drivers - which I should not have to do since its a brand new computer straight out of the box. I'm so frustrated by the problem I've dumped the computer and now have gone back to WIN-XP on a DELL Laptop, until I can sort this drama out.
My very first issue I had with it after just 4 weeks was it would not turn on at all as though the battery was removed or dead no life at all not even a light on the front panel edge.
That was "fixed" by a hard reset of the laptop ( pressing the on button down for 10 seconds ) with the battery removed - something I have never had to do with computers in the past.
Basically I'm of the opinion - rightly or not - that WIN-7 is not all that stable an O/S, since its built on a Vista platform and that being so - I may dump it and go for something radical like Linux or Ubuntu - or maybe worse still buy a Mac.
But before I go to such trouble and dump WIN-7 and conclude it is a crap OS - I would appreciate some advice as to what the problem might be ! There was a write-up about this in a recent Computer Magazine (APC ?) saying WIN-7 had problems with running sluggish and gummy. Mine is so gummy it freezes.There are dozens of complaint about this very issue on websites and the brand of computer is not the issue nor the common denominator - just the Operating System. It's a Microsoft problem in reality !
Interested in your replies and a solution to restoring my Toshiba "white elephant" !
