HT202159 I have an update that appears to be stuck and I can't get rid of it. What do I do now?

I have an update that is stuck in the middle of installing. I tried force quit and it won't work. Help!

Click here and follow the instructions, or if they don't cover that type of adware, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

  • Every time i try to play draw something i keep getting knocked off. I also have a game that is stuck and i can't get rid of it or keep playing.

    I am continually knocked off of draw something while trying to play. I also have a game that when they sent it back to me, it was frozen at the point where it shows them guessing my drawing. It lets me watch my drawing but shows the wrong letters available and the wrong word in the spaces. The right word was wedgie but the word guessed is candy and the remaining available letters are a,d,q,v,y,y,z.

    go to the appstore and make sure that there are no new updates for Drawsomething.
    If that is fine, double tap the home button and remove every app you see in that area. (hold your finger on the recent apps area that just came up and then remove every app from that area.
    Now try to go to DrawSomething.
    If that didn't do it:
    Now go to where you have draw something and remove it from your ipad (hold down the icon until it all of them start to wiggle and hit the X on Draw something.
    Now go back to the App Store and redownload draw something.
    See if that doesn't help.

  • I have music and photos playing on my tv via Apple TV.  but the menu still appears on the TV and I can't get rid of it. Any ideas/

    How do I get rid of the menu on my TV after I set it up to play music and run photos.
    And then after about 5 minutes it shuts off the photos and goes to the info about the musician and song playing.
    I think this is getting too complicated for someone to simply answer in an email. But thought I would try asking.
    Thanks

    Have you unplugged it from mains and restarted - sometimes that corrects odd glitches.

  • A key board has appeared on my screens and I can't get rid of it and I can't enter data

    I have an Ipad air and this morning a keyboard has appeared. It is present on all screens. When I tap the key to remove a keyboard I only have a choice to "Dock" or "Split". I have tried to all options but the keyboard remains. I am also unable to use then keyboard for anything other than entering my passcode.

    At the top of the iPad on the right. Here is a link to a diagram with the various buttons marked:

  • TS1702 I have ePub documents that won't open using iBooks, how can i get them formatted so that I can use them

    I have ePub documents that won't open using iBooks, how can i get them formatted so that I can use them

    You could try downloading a program called Calibre.  It is very good at converting files between formats.  I use it all the time to convert PDF's from work to read on iTunes when I don't want to have to keep zooming in and out to read the actual text. 
    I know that iBooks will read PDF's but they can get pretty squashed down some times. Especially if the original font was small to begin with.  So I run them through Calibre and then email them to my phone and open them in iBooks. 

  • I was charged for a movie that never was downloaded, i asked for it but the conection was too slow and I never was able to have the movie that i asked for...how can i get it without being charged again, who could remove the chage from my Crecit card?

    You may not be able to get a refund, since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    It's possible they'll make an exception for you, particularly if the problem was on their end preventing the movie from downloading in a reasonable time.
    Good luck.

    Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.

    Try a soft-reset and see if it works after your phone has restarted (it seems ot have fixed the error for a number of people on here) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • How do I get rid of the "Downloads" button on my bookmarks toolbar? Somehow it just appeared and I can't get rid of it.

    How do I get rid of the "Downloads" button on my bookmarks toolbar? Somehow it just appeared and I can't get rid of it.

    Firefox 20 changed from the old Download Manager to a new Download Panel. You can find a complete write-up here: [[Find and manage downloaded files]].
    I suggest keeping that arrow around since it provides handy notifications. You can use the Customize feature to drag it down to the add-on bar where it won't take up as much space. To start customizing:
    * right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Customize
    * tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Customize
    If you really don't need it, just drag it to the Customize dialog. You can always come back for it later if you like.

  • I can't email a photo directly from iPhoto.  First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion

    I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available?  Any idea why that would be?

  • What ADSL modem do you advise to use with my new airport extreme? I have tried a basic TP-Link ADSL2  modem and I can't get the configuration working. What modem does Apple recommend?

    I am having problems setting up airport extreme.
    What ADSL modem do you advise to use with my new airport extreme? I have tried a basic TP-Link ADSL2+  modem and I can't get the configuration working. What modem does Apple recommend?

    Ok well I have looked around some more and have found this to be the most up to date official response to my question as seen at this link here:
    http://www.actiontec.com/support/product_details.php?pid=41#q27
    Can I Bridge the Actiontec MI424WR router that Verizon provided, when I signed up for FiOS service?
    The MI424WR does not have a bridging option, and neither Verizon nor Actiontec support attempting to bridge it.
    The desire to bridge the MI424WR is based on a misunderstanding that it is a modem as well as a router. Actiontec does produce DSL Gateways that have a Transparent-Bridging option, which bypasses or disables the router function and allows the Gateway to act simply as a DSL modem, when it is enabled. Many consumers do not realize that with FiOS, the ONT (typically outside the home) is the device that handles changing the FiOS signal from Fiber to either Ethernet or Coax, and that the Router is just a Router, and if it was bridged or bypassed, it would be a device without a function. For most Verizon FiOS customers their service would completely stop if the MI424WR was bridged, because the Video on Demand service is dependent on it to work.
    If your ONT is connected to the Actiontec MI424WR router via Coax, the MI424WR is required due to the Coax connection. But if the ONT is connected to the MI424WR via Ethernet, then in most cases some other router can be substituted for the MI424WR, and it can be removed."
    So it looks like I will be calling Verizon support to see about getting the Ethernet connection installed and getting another modem...

    Hi all,
    Guess I understand what is going on as I'm also experiencing the problem.
    Basically the issue is about the iPhone 4's personal hotspot.
    I'm trying to hook on personal hotspot to my toshiba laptop but it couldnt work as the connection is limited to local only without Internet access.
    The hotspot works well on other laptop and I-devices, but not my toshiba...
    Hope to get assistance here. Thanks
