    You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
    Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

    Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
    1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
    2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

  • How do you do a system restore on the mini?

    I have updated some software that was downloaded - not an app - and now I am having trouble opening a file. I have already used time machine to try to restore an older version of the file with no success.

    Hello Grover,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    In regards to your question about how to compress a video to send via email:
    When sharing your finished iMovie video via email, iMessage, or MMS (iPhone 4 or later), the Camera Roll scales down and compresses the video in order to improve upload performance.
    This is from the following article:
    iMovie for iOS: Why are videos shared through the Camera Roll lower resolution? - Apple Support

  • I have an iPhone 5S, with iOS 8.1.2  I am trying to do a system restore but the message I get on the desktop is that there is not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is required?

    I have an iPhone 5S, with iOS 8.1.2  I am trying to do a system restore but the message I get on the desktop is that there is not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is required?
    I had an important app. (Memos by bluemarblesoftware.com) that I accidentally deleted. It of course had many memos, some with quite a lot of information. I did sync my phone on a regular basis and I think the memos should be on the desktop computer. I tried to do a restore function but I got a message saying there was not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is needed?

    generally you need 1.90gb
    what you can do is back up your phone to your computer before doing the update, just as a precaution.

  • How do I perform a system restore in Windows 10?

    QuestionHow do I perform a system restore in Windows 10?
    AnswerNote: This article is about Windows 10. Separate articles are available on performing system restore in Windows 8 and Windows 7.
    System restore rolls your system files back to a restore point from a previous date. You can make restore points manually, but Windows will also make them automatically. This will undo system settings, changes from Windows Update, and changes from newly installed software (including removing software installed since that restore point).
    Your data, documents, and most programs won't be changed. This makes system restore a great place to start when you're having a problem and don't know how to fix it.
    System restore reverts drivers installed since the restore point was created. Programs and apps installed since the restore point was created will also need to be reinstalled.
    To view other recovery options in Windows 10, read this article:
    What recovery options are available in Windows 10?
    To perform a system restore, follow these steps:
    Open the Start Menu and select Settings.
    Select Update & security and then Recovery.
    Under Advanced startup, select Restart now.
    After the computer restarts to a screen with various options, select Troubleshoot.
    Select Advanced options and then System Restore.
    When you reach an account selection screen, select an account.
    Enter your password and select Continue.
    Follow the prompts, choosing your desired restore point. (You'll most likely want to use the most recent restore point from before the problem started).
    You can also watch this video to learn how to perform a system restore:

    If you want to create an image of the entire disk, then `dd' is an option. But you can also use ufsdump to create an image of a filesystem running on that disk, but you need to do that for every filesystem on the disk and please keep a copy of you vtoc for the future if you need to restore everything.
    On the other hand you make me thing about someone who wants to clone machines and then a Flash Archive can also be an option. Please keep in mind to ask the question in the future instead of conformation of your answer ;-)

  • All my programs are opening in adobe even the system restore and the regisrty - how do I reset all programs to their originall default programs. Please help

    all my programs are opening in adobe even the system restore and the regisrty -
    how do I reset all programs to their originall default programs.
    Please help.
    PS I have also tried starting in save mode and still have the same problem.

    Hi,
    As
    BurrWalnut mentioned, first please run a virus scan to eliminate virus infection (if AV program is not opened in adobe)
    The files association could be corrupted in your situation, apart from the solution posted in the first reply, I also suggest you check Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set your Default Programs or Associate a file type or protocol
    with a progra,, manually check the association and check if it can do some help.
    Add: another way to open restore point is launching it in recovery console, please refer to this guide

  • How can you redo initial system setup macbook pro

    How can you redo initial system setup macbook pro?

    Like when Setup Assistant fires up and lets you migrate? In general, that would imply having to do a complete reinstall. And I've always been under the impression that when you do that, the reinstall software does not contain all the extra goodies that come with a new from-factory install (such as iLife).
    But as Prof. Kappy wants to know, the specifics are very version dependent.

  • HT1212 It says could not connect to the ipod because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter our passcode on the ipod before it can be used with Itunes. I forgot the passcode so how can I enter/ restore/reset it?

    It says could not connect to the ipod because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter our passcode on the ipod before it can be used with Itunes. I forgot the passcode so how can I enter/ restore/reset it?

    As the linked articl says, place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
