to reset the smc:

3) press: left shift + control + option and then at the same time the power button
4) you will see the light on your mac power to change from orange to green
5) dont release any of the 4 keys (left shift + control + option + power)
6) Then after 10 secs release them all at the same time
7) Turn on your mac

I recently did a system update and installed Yosemite on my Mac. Now I am unable to open CS5 at all. The error message I get is this: "To open Adobe Photoshop CS5.1, you need to install legacy Java SE 6 runtime." I have tried downloading this and it still gives me the same mess

In the details it is mentioned that it is an outdated version of Java.
Is this a security risk that i need to live with to get CS5 to run with Yosemite?
Also i need to reject messages from Java in the future about updates, or not?
thx for any input

Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

Macbook pro 2010...cursor is acting crazy jumping everywhere and responding very slow...thought it was the track pad but I plugged in a mouse and it still does the same thing...is this a virus?..and can someone please help?...

My Macbook pro is acting Crazy....the Cursor just keeps on jumping everywhere and not responding when I use the trackpad....Even when it does respond it is very slow...I thought it was the trackpad acting up but realized it wasnt when i plugged in a mouse and it still did the same thing...this happened one other time and shortly after my computer froze...I had to restart for it to work but restarting dosent help this time...can someone please help?...Is this a Virus?

It is not a virus. See my Mac Virus Guide*.
As to what it might be, that's hard to say. You should try some basic troubleshooting... Repair the hard drive with disk utility. Boot in safe mode and see if it happens then, log in to a different user account and see if it happens there, reboot from another system and see if it happens.
Apparently some people have had this kind of problem caused by swelling batteries that push on the underside of the trackpad and cause all kinds of strange problems. Is your machine's underside deformed at all?

IPad 3 screen is doing its own thing...

Help! My iPad 3 is opening and closing apps on its own, will not let me do a hard reset, tried rebooting, I am at a loss. When it started doing it this morning, I tried updating it, rebooting it, resetting it, it does it, then it stops, then it starts again. Help!!!

You should backup your iPad and make an appointment at a Genius Bar. The problem you are experiencing is most likely a hardware problem (screen/digitizer)

IPhone doing its own thing!

I had to send away my IPhone 4 and get a replacement but the one I have is going crazy! It won't open up apps it won't close them, it won't turn off after a call, it keeps pressing numbers on its own and even opening apps by it self. Any ideas? Why it's doing it? How I can fix it? Thanks

looks like hardware problem ! Take it back

When I try to go onto itunes it says its corrupted and needs to be re-installed? I've been trying to do this but it still does the same thing. How do I get my music back?

My itunes comes up corrupted and won't let me into my music? How do I get my music back?

Is it the application that says it is corrupted, or is it the library? Precision and little details are important and helpful when you provide them with the question.
If it is the library, try rebuilding it.

Firefox will not fully load and run anymore just out of the blue when I click to run it it just sits and does not respond I have totally uninstalled and reinstalled this many times and it still does the same thing why would it stop working?

When I booted my computer up from cold and click firefox to run it sat there and tryed to load instead it sits there and does the nor responding thing. I have totally uninstalled the program a few times and re installed a new download and the same thing happen. I can not run firefox any longer and i have run it everyday for a very long time. This seems to be the only program with an issue.

None of the stuff in " http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite " helps. I have tried and tried and I have even wipe the computer clean still didn't help. I got the same problem as he/she has got in the first posted. Can add some web pages but not all the web pages I want.. I should have never updated to 3.6.13... That's when it all started for me, from that version..... Now Version 3.6.14 is out, I was hoping the version 3.6.14 might would fix the problem wrong again....
Funny thing is i can not even Bookmark Firefox.com!!!!!...lol
So any ideas on how to fix it other than the link giving would help.
Thanks.

I am not able to bookmark any pages. When I add bookmark nothing happens. I tried safe mode and it still does not work, I also reset toolbars and still no go. Can you help?

working on an Imac 10.6.5 and firefox 3.6

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I talked to a advisor and she said to back up and restore my ipod because the home button on my ipod touch is not responding so i did and it still does the same thing i would have to press it repeatedly just to close an app

My ipod home button just doesnt respond properly anymore and my head phone jack is still messed up even when i restored everything and went to factory settings so im guessing its a hardware issue and i wanted to know how to send it back for repairs please thank thank you =^.^=

Don't listen to any of them...
Just recalibrate it! I have a similar issue where I kept pressing my home button and nothing worked.
Here are some websites the tell you how to fix it!

How to fix: http://nealbo.hubpages.com/hub/Fix-a-broken-unresponsive-or-sticky-iPhone-Home-B utton
And if both suggestions don't work, go to settings, General, Acessability, and turn on assistive touch so that a little circle appears in the corner, tap it and tap home to work as your home button!
