HT201340 OK! Now what do I do with my Aperture library from my old mac that will not open on my new Mac with a different operating system? do I just loose all of the pictures ?

I just bought a new Mac Book Pro and I had Aperture on the old one. Went to open it with the new OS and it says it wiil not open. How do I save my pictures and use them on the new computer?

Hello Pete from another old guy,
It sounds like you have an older iMac than the 2006 and newer model this forum covers. The problem is that, in 2006, Apple changed from PowerPC to Intel processors and third-party developers soon stopped making new software for the older processors. That's why you cannot upgrade Flash player--the current version requires a Mac the "2006 and later" processor.
However, not having a current version of FlashPlayer should not affect your ability to download. If you try downloading, do you get an error message or does something else happen?
Do you have another web browser like FireFox or Camino on your computer?
but would love to get my MAC back up to date and running right.
Well, "running right" may be doable but "up to date" may not be. You are already at as high a Mac OS level that a pre-2006 Mac can use. We need to pin down your variant to make recommendations. From your Apple menu at the left end of the menu bar, do "About this Mac":
That brings up this window:
Let us know what yours say for "processor." The two choices are "PowerPC" as in the example, or "Intel." If you have an Intel processor, you have more options available.
Awaiting your report,
Allan

I have a mac Book that will not open DVD's of Business Presentations. I had my hard drive taken in to the Mac Store and had a new hard drive installed. Since then I cannot open DVD's. What is the application that I need, and the process. Tks

I have a mac book that will not open up DVD's recorded with a presentation. I install the disc in a HP / windows 7 and it works fine. I had my hard drive replaced and since then I cannot open up DVD's. Was there a application that did not get installed? And if so what is the process.

You need DVD Player. It should be in your Applications folder. If it is in there go to System Preferences>CDs & DVDs and for "When you insert a video DVD" make sure DVD Player is selected.

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?

Make sure Siri isn't disabled in Settings > General > Restrictions.
If that isn't it, did you try to restore as a new device?

IPhoto: I have several photos that will not open in the edit mode. They also will not open to a screensaver.

I have Version 10.6.8 and iPhoto 9, versiono 8.1.2.
Two questions:
1) I can't find the 9.0 to install so I can then update thru 9.3...
2) I have several pictures that will not open in the edit mode. There is just a blank screen when I attempt to open them. I cannot export them to the desktop either. Message is: Unable to create/Users/(my name)/Desktop

New PC with Windows XP, replacing XP. My PDF docs will not open

New PC with Windows XP, replacing XP. My PDF docs will not open and I am getting the following messages: EITHER Adobe Reader could not open ‘xxx.doc’ because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn’t correctly decoded). OR Word will now convert your PDF to an editable Word document. This may take a while. etc. Help please.

These are two completely different symptoms. Please explain exactly what you do when you get either of these messages. Also tell us your Reader version.

How can I save a page offline? the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open.

the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open anything - can't I save the page as a single offline file?

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

How do I change my apple id from an old one that does not exist anymore to the new one I use....Please help me I can't update any downloads for my apps.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks!

You can try the script mentioned in #1 here: Re: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.
Here's how to install a script: http://indesignsecrets.com/how-to-install-a-script-in-indesign-that-you-found-in-a-forum-o r-blog-post.php

Adobe Reader will not open embedded PDFs in Safari with Yosemite

Adobe Reader will not open embedded PDFs in Safari with Yosemite installed

That looks like a perfectly good PDF, but since it's trying to open in Microsoft Word, that means your file association for .pdf files is incorrect. You should change it to point to Adobe Reader instead of Word.
If you are on Windows, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-file-open-program#1TC=windows-7
