How long does it take to download when it says waiting in the launchpad?, how long does it take to download when it says waiting in the launchpad?
I have downloaded the software but it just says waiting for 2 days, what does that mean?
should not be any more than 5 minutes....
a few things to try,
ensure you have the latest version of itunes.
ensure you're using a USB2.0 port, not on a hub.
close and reopen itunes.
restart your computer.
uninstall and reinstall itunes.
try to not have any other programs running as you're updating.
if you have power settings set on your computer (ie- standby, turn off hard disks, after a certain amount of time), disable them before you start the restore.

I downloaded 12 songs and am now "waiting" for them. How long does it take. I have been waiting for over 15min. and only got 2songs.
It should be almost immediate.
Is iTunes currently running on both computers? -
I require google maps of the porperty we manage to do my job I purchased the ifarmer app to help organize and keep better track of details in equipment logs and cattle records. I'm trying to download maps of the property and its taking forever. it says it is "enhancing map detail" but its taken so long the ipod falls asleep and I don't know if that makes it take longer. I also can't do anything else on the ipod until it is done downloading. Is the amount of time its taking to download this map normal????
Great
Ok so this is what you need to do:
You need to put it in DFU mode:
How to enter iPhone DFU mode
Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
When you are in DFU mode your iPhone Screen will be completely black
Even though the screen is black, that doesn’t mean the device can’t be interfaced with either iTunes or a custom firmware client (for jailbreaking, etc).
Remember that if you see the restore logo, itunes logo or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode. Again, DFU mode is signified by having a completely black screen on the device. If anything else is the case, repeat the steps above until you enter into DFU mode successfully.
Now you can restore - once restore is completed the Exit DFU mode
Exit DFU mode on iPhone
The simplest way to exit out of DFU mode is to hold down the Home and sleep/power buttons on the iPhone while connected to iTunes. Then just hit the power button as and this should reboot the device as usual. -
I purchased and installed Family Tree Maker for Mac from the App Store about 6 months ago. I heard that possibly a new version was coming, though I had not received any update notice. I went to the App Store and it no longer shows the app, either as available for purchase or as an app I have previously purchased. So I can't get any information on the app, support, etc.. How can an app I have purchased disappear from the purchased list??? How can I get update information or support links? (contacted FTM website and phone support and they said if I bought my program from App store, I have to get update information there).....the Update Info button in my program is actually greyed out!! So the program I bought doesn't even have the normal update link!! I thought one of the advantages of App Store purchase was being able to redownload the program in the unlikely event it was lost....ie: no need to worry about having the install CD. So now I only have my installed, operating copy and no way to reinstall if it crashes due to corrupt data, etc.!! Not a happy result from an App Store purchase! And I must say the circular references in the support link are frustarting...apparently there is NO live support for the App Store itself!
Thanks for THAT tip: iTunes acct. history DOES show my (few) Mac app purchases, buried in with my MANY iPhone and iPad apps! So I CAN prove I bought it (7 months ago, not 6), but you wouldn't know it from the App Store app on my Mac! But that does leave a few other ?'s hanging: like how could I download it again, or check for updates (as I said, the version installed has the "update" button greyed out! Ancestry.com (who sells it online and support it for other buyers said update info for App Store purchasers comes through the App Store.
I may just be out of luck with this because after 7 months of ownership, they (Ancestry) just replaced FTM with a new version (Family Tree Maker for Mac2) that is NOT an upgrade (though prior owners get $4.00 off on a $52.00 purchase!!). I'll probably just plump for that....direct from Ancestry.com...and give up on the Mac App Store, because the new version reportedly has major enhancements in sync-ing your family history record between your computer and the cloud program available online. Genealogy software, like everything else is migrating to the cloud, but one really does need a resident program on their device because you're often collecting data "in the field" in libraries, historical archives, cemeteries, etc. where you really can't get online in many cases. Fortunately, more and more of the source data is coming online, so more and more can be done from home! -
I purchased Adobe Design Standard in June 1993 and have not downloaded it until now. when I click on the software on my account there is no download button. How can I download the software I purchased so long ago? I hope it is not money down the drain. Is there any phone number available so I can talk to an Adobe employee?
Which version of Design Standard are you asking about? I don't think any Creative Suite packages existed in 1993. I think the first CS came out in 2003.

I downloaded a song that is not playing. When i click to report a problem it gives me an error that says "To many HTTP redirects". What does this mean and how do I fix it? Thank you!

I was just authorized on the account, how long does it to take affect? Other upgrade question too.
So My mother is the account holder and bill-payer for our plan. She just called in and got me authorized to pay bills and purchace a new phone. I am wanting to get the new iPhone 4S. She is available to get it at $199 and I am not. Does this mean that now that i am authorizied I can access her upgrade and get the phone for $199? Also, how long until I can actually make purchases and such? (She just authorized me 10 minutes ago over the phone)
A lot of questions, I know. But your help is appreciated.Thanks to the community for posting. That is great that you want to upgrade to the new iPhone! It is a great phone and you won’t be disappointed! The best way to get the upgrade is to log into the Verizon Wireless website under your moms account and click on where it says “transfer upgrade.” Once this is completed you will be able to take advantage of that upgrade. I hope this helps. Thanks.

When U2 launched their latest album it was downloaded to all iTunes users free of charge. It does not seem to be possible to delete any or all of these tracks. Can anybody tell me how to delete these tracks?

when my iphone 4s goes completely dead how long should it take to recongize the charger and begin to charge?
How do you know it is not charging? Do you see anything on the screen at all? Have you tried a reset? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo and then release. If the phone was completly dead, it may take up to 15 seconds or more for the Apple logo to appear.

Question:
When I sync with my iphone I get an error reporting message but the sync still works. After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds as long as Entourage is open. This continues until I quit Entourage. How do I turn this message off? It interferes with any other work I am doing. I appreciate any suggestions.I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck. -
After I updated the iOS version on 11/23/13, I can not access anymore my Pages documents. It says it's updating. How long would this take to update?
Try this - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

since the last update a few days ago of firefox, the time has been 25 to 35 seconds to enter bookmarks or even the time it takes to page down when it used to take a few seconds. can you tell me why it taking so long since the update on firefox. may another update is in order.
I have now done pretty much every suggestion that even vaguely applies in the various helpful link provided. Thanks for the ongoing help. =)
I have managed to get FireFox's start-up memory usage down to about 100,000K, however it appears that memory usage keeps creeping up the longer FireFox is open. (It seems to top out around 500,000K.) And I'm not talking open for many hours or days - but rather for minutes and possibly up to a couple hours. (Based on how long I've been fiddling with all this so far.)
On the plus side, it does not appear GreaseMonkey is the culprit since with it active or disabled this memory creep still occurs. Although having GreaseMonkey enabled definitely increases the rate of memory creep. Though once it has creeped up to 150,000+K, disabling GM does not make it drop back down to the starting 100,000K.
I should point out I run a MacBook Pro and use Bootcamp to partition the hard drive and run it as a Windows 7 PC about half the time. I am running it literally as a PC or, alternately, as a Mac depending on which hard drive I choose to load. (I'm not "windowing" it.) This problem exists regardless of whether I am using the PC or the Mac. These repairs have been made currently on the PC side, and I will attempt them all again on the Mac side. I find it odd that this enormous memory drain has occurred on 3 different computers at the same time. (The two "halves" of my home laptop as well as the PC at my work place.) -
The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it. After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading. Is there a special, non-app store place where I am to go for this?
Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing. In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=245
Remove is ASAP. Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it. Try this:
http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple. However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

Difficult to know where to start as I am self taught and do not know enough to really get around all the Navigating/Options/Downloads/ Updates and sublties.
I have several issues, most of which I was going to question at a later date but maybe this is a good time to do so as they may be inter-linked.
Mozilla Firefox has been very helpful - I am impressed by its good intentions - tells me that various things need to be done, updated ( which I have done to try to clear this slowness of this laptop ) M.F. keeps me informed and on my toes.
1. I changed to M.F. because I was being harassed to Download Internet Explorer 9 which I do not like - Internet Explorer 8 was becoming very too slow/kept crashing/hanging.
2. This affected Micrsoft word which also kept crashing/hanging.
3. Shortly after Downloading M.F. I also Downloaded "Trusteer Rapport" which also has some "hanging" issues.
4. I double click on the M.F. "shortcut" either on the Desktop or the Taskbar (bottom of my screen) then I wait - 60 secs is too long.
When I first downloaded M.F. it appeared within 5 to 10 seconds.
5. M.F. has started to "Hang", and occassionally dodge about from one window to another without my instructing it.....this never happened when originally Downloaded ( this also is happening to some of the websites I go to )
6. I'm now up S.Creek without a paddle - I've checked all the Hardware for Updates/ had diagnostics from Dell and Microsoft (all passed - working correctly) / removed several items from the Notification Area on the Taskbar.
7. With all these Downloads is there a connection here - could it Compatibilty?
8. M.F. has informed me of one Compatibilty issue with Kaspersky PURE internet protection - i.e. Kaspersky URL Advisor 9.1.0.124 is not Compatible with Firefox 5.0.1.
9. My laptop was new in 2008 - not exactly old - but maybe it is something in the computer.....?
I should be most obliged if you would advise.Firefox is comparable to other browsers in terms of time except in startup. It took 60 seconds before I saw Firefox reappear and another 12 seconds to see this tab among my 12 tabs that were open. I used "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/restartless-restart/ Restartless Restart]" extension to close and restart Firefox. My laptop is a single core machine purchased Jan 2010.
I know I could improve the my startup time by changing the options on one of my extensions, Infolister, or more if I [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/infolister_listing_fx4.htm#extensions disabled all 78] of my enabled extensions then it would be a faster browser but wouldn't do much for me.
One of the things that was found was that all of those fonts that we have available slows down the start-up of Firefox. I don't know if we see any improvements in Firefox 4 or 5 based on that yet though.
If you install really large extensions on your machine, and it is difficult to see how large an extension is if it is not at addons, then you are going to have lots of problems. You always want to be aware of what is listed in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions Problematic extensions] and why it was listed to know if it applies to you.
At least your time seems comparable to mine. Often when I see someone "complaining" about their time, it looks more like bragging about how fast their machine is. -
How to sync my iPhone to my MacBook Pro and vice versa as it no longer seems to be doing?
How to sync my iphone to my MacBook Pro and vice versa as it no longer seems to be doing? When I initially set up everything it worked fine; however, now my contacts are not syncing between devices?
I have Icloud and even paid for ectra storage to see if this was the issue but it doesnt seems to be. When I try and view devices on my itunes to sync it will not allow - blank option?
If anyone could please help it would be really appreciated- thanks in advance:)I don't know how you got to your current position, but you might want to start by replacing your calendar with your MacBook Pro calendar if it is correct (if it isn't, skip this): first disable calendar syncing on your phone (Settings>iCloud>Calendars set to OFF), then prior to syncing open iTunes on your computer and disable automatic syncing (under Preferences>Devices>Disable...from syncing automatically syncing). Next connect your phone and set your sync settings on the Info tab to Syc Calendars with iCal, and below under Advanced choose "Replace Information on this iPhone" and check Calendars. Now sync and this will hopefully replicate your MacBook calendar on your iPhone.
Next, carefully review this to see that you have correctly set up iCloud on both your phone and your MacBook: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/, and that your meet the minimum system requirements (latest version of iOS on your phone, latest version of iTunes, OSX Lion 10.7.2 or later).
