    How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

    Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
    Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins  installed?
    Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
    To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto.  Is there anything installed?

  • Iphone wont sync with itunes i dont have apple mobile device

    i dont have apple mobile device on my computer so that means my iphone wont sync to my itunes i tryed downloading the new itunes and everything but apple mobile device still did not download why? i need HELP!!!!!

    I had the same problem. iTunes would not recognize my wife's phone as a device. My phone was just fine. So here is how I fixed her problem after exhausting all the apple support tips. First thing I did was go to apple.com and saved the newest iTunes software to the desk top (do not install yet). Then I went into control pannel to uninstall software. Uninstall the following....Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple software update, Bonjour, and then finally uninstall iTunes. Then reboot your system, once reboot is complete go to your desktop and install the newest iTunes that you saved earlier. This worked like a charm...let me know if it helps

  • My calendar "all from my Mac" on my iphone wont sync with my ical

    I have my iphone calender under "all from my mac" however it wont sync with my ical. I have noticed the only calender on my ical is from my icloud. Unfortunately all my calender enteires on my iphone are not under that. Wondering what the easiest way to sync this is.
    when I click hide calender and hide the "all from my mac" all my calender entries disappear.

    Try this:
    1. Make a backup ( a) Time Machine, b) Export > Archive iCal. Close iCal)
    2. In Finder hold down alt-Key while choosing "Go to..." menu
    3. Select Library
    4. In the folder Calendar delete the files
    Calendar Sync Changes
    Calendar Cache
    5. In the folder Preferences delete the files
    com.apple.CalendarAgent.plist
    com.apple.iCal.helper.plist
    com.apple.iCal.plist
    com.apple.iCalExternalSync.plist
    com.apple.syncserver.plist
    (not sure which one is the bad guy, but it did not hurt to erase all of them)
    6. Start iCal, it will update itself.

  • Iphone wont sync with computer

    cant get iphone to sync with computer   i have never had trouble before

    To determine your OS version:
    1. Right Click on My Computer. Go to the ‘General’ tab (opens by default).
    2. Click on Start then Run. In the ‘Open’ checkbox type Winver.
    Either one should tell you exactly what version of Vista you have (However, it's likely you do indeed have Vista 64, in which case the iPhone will not sync properly).

  • Accidentally deleted iTunes, is there anyway I can download it again and have it just back up my iPod instead of clearing it of all data? All of iTunes files are still on my computer, but the actual program got deleted.

    I was trying to clear space on my C drive and decided to delete programs that I didn't use or that I didn't recognize. (Bad idea, I know that now.) Anyways, accidentally deleted a program that iTunes needed to run and the computer said it would undo the uninstall and restart to fix the problem but when it restarted iTunes was gone. So my question is, after I download iTunes again, is there a way I can just backup my iPod to it's last sync (which was coincidentally right before I accidentally deleted iTunes) instead it being cleared of all its data? All of iTunes' files are still on my computer except the actual program itself.

    Hi, InsaneCharlie. 
    Thanks for the question.  I see you have uninstalled iTunes and want this program back.  Start with completely uninstalling iTunes if present and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below.  Once this is done, download and install iTunes.  If none of your data was modified in the iTunes media folder, then your data should be present upon installation.

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...
