Only a clean install can give you a clean chit.
But that is painful if you want to restore your applications and settings.
So called hacks are very rare and unlikely to be on your comp. Check Activity Monitor and if you see weird processes then you need to be worried; else you are generallly fine.

    For some, if not complete peace of mind, go to F_Secure's Flashback Removal Tool web page, download their Flashback trojan detection/removal tool, and follow the instructions you find there.
    Turns out their tool won't run on a PPC Mac (unless you extract and modify the AppleScript so it will run the shell script).
    The only one I know of that does is Norton's. I glanced over it and gave it a test run. Looks OK, but I cannot attest to how well it might work.
    And as has already been said, nobody we've run into here using a PPC Mac has been shown to be infected and all the samples I have been able to examine contained Intel only executables.

    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • How will i know the model of my Satellite M100 series?

    Hi Enrique
    Its very simple to find it out.
    At the bottom of the unit you will find the label which provides all this useful information.
    You should also find the number beginning with the PSM.
    This number is important to identify your notebook model for example
    for driver download.

    How are you creating the file, exactly?
    And if you don't manage to solve it you can use this free tool I've developed to reverse the page order in Acrobat with a single click:

  • How will I know my i7 is working properly?

    I've seen a lot of threads on here where people have noticed problems upon receiving their new i5 and i7 iMacs. My question is for someone who is a relative novice with Apple and computers in general, how will I know if something's not working properly?
    I can obviously tell if something's wrong with the display, but is there a recommended way to test it out and make sure everything is running as it should?
    I ordered mine from apple.com on Dec 2, it should be arriving on Dec 21.
    Thank you.

    First welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You will know if it's working OK if you don't see anything wrong. There aren't any tests you need to run, just set it up following Apple's instructions and use it for a few days. If everything appears normal then it most likely is. Your iMac should be quiet and run smoothly, if it doesn't then you have 90 days of free telephone support and of course 1 year for the standard warranty. If you didn't already I would recommend getting AppleCare to protect your investment for up to 3 years from the original date of purchase.
    Last if you haven't already I would recommend going to these sites to learn more about your Mac especially if you are migrating from MS Windows.

    The MozillaZine Builds forum has a recap of which Bugs are fixed in each new pre-release version. A new thread is started each day, and covers Nightly, Aurora, Beta, and sometimes covers special builds, like the current Holly ''(Nightly without the Australis interface)''.

    Quite honestly, you should consider using the 32-bit release version rather than the "cutting edge" Night 64-bit version, which isn't currently being developed or supported.

  • How will you know if someone is using video chat?

    How will you know if someone is using video chat? Does the green camera indicator turns red?

    Hi,
    You Buddy List will show two types of AV icons.
    "Single" type which indicates the person can only do 1-1 Chats.
    "Stacked" icons indicating they can do Multi-way chats.
    Example pic
    If they appear feint or "greyed out",  so to speak, then they are Busy to someone else.
    (if they are chatting with you they will appear dark again once connected)

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(

  • HT5243 How does one know if they use "java applets"? What do they do? How will I know if I need to 'disable the java web plug-in browser' if I do not use them? ( I'm not very literate in computer-speak.

    How does one know if they use "java applets"? What do they do? How will I know if I need to 'disable the java web plug-in browser' if I do not use them? (Obviously I'm not very literate in computer-speak.)

    Well, when you go to a web page a section of the web page will have a coffee cup picture where the java applet will run. The applet loads then runs. If you are not seeing this behavior then you are not using java. If it make you feel more comfortable then disable the browser java plugin. On my machine I have not disable java- but you
    may what to.
