HT204382 I don't agree with this
I don't agree with this. Any Vid's that ran on my PPC PB now won't run on this Intel iMac. That's a problem.

What's wrong with that new Quicktime that it won't work?
Apple either dropped support for your older media formats in Quicktime or your PPC machine has codecs installed or a automatic installer (like Perian) that made it appear Quicktime can play just about anything.
https://support.apple.com/kb/ht3775
Also a PPC machine only has 10.5, the newer Quicktime on'y supports Intel Mac's with 10.6 or later.
So it's possible that something changed in Quicktime and the codecs it's natively supports.
Perian is no longer being attended too, Quicktime might not be supporting older codecs, your only solution is to install VLC Player for the Mac, hope it works and live with it as there is nothing else anymore.

# of Files in iTunes Music Folders Don't Agree with # of Songs
I regularly monitor the properties of my iTunes folders to ensure that my two computers and backup drives all agree. Recently, for the first time ever the number of files in iTunes Music / artist & album folders did not agree with the number of songs in them.
I tracked it down just artist folders starting with 'A'. The additional files were invisible even with 'show hidden files' selected. There were typically two per album folder and they took up storage space. A security scan did not show a problem. I got rid of them by transferring the music files to new artist & album folders and deleting the ones with the mystery files.
Does anyone know what could have caused this? I am running Windows 7 64b and have had to use the Task Manager to close iTunes a couple of times when it froze. Thanks.+"And i have done a "Consolidate library". Has anyone else done the same check and noticed similar discrepancies? Are there possibly some files in the iTunes folder that do not end up in the iTunes program?"+
Consolidate will not help; it only looks at songs that are already in the library. Run File > Add Folder to Library on your iTunes folder. That will try to pick up any songs that are in the folder but not in the library. It will however skip any file that is not compatible with iTunes. -
Bug? Format choices sometimes don't agree with the data type
I discovered (while experimenting) what seems to be a small bug when editing properties of numerics:
Unless the number is in an integer representation, the special integer formats (Decimal, hex, octal, binary) are greyed out.
So let's start out with a DBL numeric control and open the properties window. We can change the representation on the "data type" tab of the properties dialog to an integer (e.g. I32), and the control immediately changes color accordingly. However, if we go back to the formatting tab, the integer specific formats are still greyed out. They should now be accessible!
Only after exiting the properties dialog and opening it again, the correct format are no longer greyed and can now be selected.

I have in us app store 10$ gift but i dont buy with this 10$ "boom beach gem". Why ?
i have in us app store 10$ gift but i dont buy with this 10$ "boom beach gem". Why ?
We are fellow users here on these forums, if you would like help then you will need to provide more information that 'I don't buy with this $10' - what happens when you try to buy them, if you are getting an error message then what does it say ? How much are the gems that you are trying to buy - you need to add on your state's sales tax to the listed price, would that take it over your account's balance ?
If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them why the message is appearing (we won't know why) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail. There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software. I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. I don't have the original operating software disk. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Your reply suggests that you have moved Mail to a different location, which (as I said) will prevent it from being properly updated. You cannot use Mail 4.5 with any recent version of Mac OS X. Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) included Mail 5 and Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) includes Mail 6. I'm assuming that you have either Lion or Mountain Lion, but if that is incorrect, you will need to provide that information.
At this point, you will need to reinstall your system. Hold down command-R at startup and reinstall the system right on top of the old one. This should not disturb any of your documents or applications, though you should have backups beforehand in case something goes wrong. And at this point, with your system in an uncertain state (I don't entirely know what you have done to it), something could go wrong.
You will also want to delete the old copy of Mail 4.5, wherever that is. You can't use it.
In the future, do not move any of the preinstalled applications. Leave them where they are. -
Hi, I'd like to set alarms or reminders on my I phone or I pad so that it can update or sync automatically with each other. I don't know if this is possible or how to do it. I hope you can help.
HI, if I did this, then I believe that I cloud would then hold my info which I don't want. Is that the case? The reason is that I'm an old git, therefore used to not giving out info. Would I be right?
Thank-You so much for taking the time to answer.

I have a new iPhone 5S. While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content. I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it. There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want. I have deleted it from iTunes but cannot get it off the phone. Help!
The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

I am trying to sync my iphone with a new itunes library. The iphone is askin for an 'exchange' password. I don't know what this is or where to find it.
Sounds like you do have an Exchange account setup on your phone. Have a Gmail or Hotmail account? They can both be setup as Exchange accounts. Have a work email account?

Ok so my husband and I both got the htc droid in february of this year and have had numerous problems. We had read some of the reviews before deciding to get the phone and decided it would be a good one to get. Apparently the reviews were written sometime in the first month of having the phone.
While the idea is great this phone is truly the first one I have ever yelled at in the middle of a store or honestly felt like throwing against a wall. Great way to wean yourself off using the phone too much? Just upgrade to the htc droid! I hate making phone calls because it takes 5-10 secs to load my call history, then I push the send button and what do you know I called the wrong person. Try using my favorites list, hmm well if I wanted to call the person two people above their pic then thats who I would have pushed. Tried sending pics to my email it took 5 attempts and 24 hours for me to get them. I get force closed all the time, then it doesn't close anything,{word filter avoidance}
? I hate text messaging, i type fast and never had a problem with my LG Dare ( the last phone I had) but the droid seems to have a brain fart everytime I write a text message.
Forget the market, are you kidding me? What a disaster, I don't have two hours to spend on the phone to look for an app that won't affect the already crappy apps I already have on my phone. My husband gave up sending pic messages, not too mention that everything scrolls the the left and then won't scroll back. Every time our phones are plugged in to charge they freak, literally! They jump from app to app, things get highlighted green and scrolls up and down all the time. Set it on the table and walk slowly away! The phone gets hot, the battery runs out, and because we have to charge it so often the car charger is fried! I am constantly in a fight with my phone to get my home screen to come up, the update may have fixed some of the other issues but it also added so many more.
I have waited and waited, to avoid the scene I now know is going to come up, to go into Verizon to complain and see what they can do. We went in once because of the issues we were having, their solution add Advance Task Killer, super! That got old really fast, I shouldn't have to babysit my phone and make sure everything is turned off when I'm done, hello isn't this a smart phone? Then my attempt at tech support, his solution -remove some of the apps since they may be affecting the other ones, oh yeah and by the way, you should pull the battery out at least once a day to reboot the phone! What?! You have got to be kidding me!
I am not a tech savvy person, I know my way around most phones and get along just fine with most things, but I can't tell you what version of some unknown upgrade could possibly be on my phone or what has caused what. I don't want to have constantly be downloading something to fix an issue that shouldn't be an issue. Isn't that why companies have beta testers? To test their products before they are released to make sure that there are as few issues as possible? The race to have the best, smartest, coolest phone on the market, even when two days later it will be outdated, shouldn't be affecting the products that we pay good money for!
There are other issues, but I can be done for now.Good luck! A refurb will probably fix most of those problems...unless that one suffers from it too. Some users are reporting being on their 3rd+ Eris. I'm "only" on my 2nd.
Two problems in your list won't be helped by a new Eris. You mentioned trouble with picture messages. One problem that the maintenance update in July (called MR4) introduced is that picture messages are now being interpreted as 5-second slideshows. You will not be able to get rid of that problem with a refurb, as the update (which Verizon has made mandatory) causes it. This issue will also affect who can receive pictures from you: I have a friend with an LG EnV2 who is unable to receive pictures from me after the update, though others still receive them fine--HTC says that only those phones which are, "too old" (yes, their words) will not be able to get pictures from the Eris.
Unfortunately, HTC refuses to support this problem, and one representative, Danty, confirmed that they have absolutely no intention of releasing any new updates to fix it. Verizon says they can't do anything if HTC says there's nothing to be done, so I'm not sure if we'll ever see this one fixed. ):
Second, the "brain fart" while texting will be present in any replacement you get as well. The Eris' touch keyboard is VERY slow; it just can't keep up. I'd guess it's a hardware problem, or the way the software interacts with the hardware: when I had to have mine replaced, it was because the vibrate mechanism died. That was annoying, but it did have a positive consequence: the phone suddenly became very fast; typing could keep up with me, switching to landscape view was snappy, and apps opened faster as well. There are no officially-sanctioned methods of fixing this. (The only method other users are reporting success with voids your warranty and requires being very tech savvy--personally, I haven't been willing to go that route, but others swear by it.)
Overall, it's a shoddy product, and HTC refuses to honor their obligation to support it. Personally, I'll never buy another HTC phone again, and I tell others to avoid HTC as well. Unfortunately, it sounds like you also learned this lesson the hard way. ): -
I had a repair done on my MacBook Pro and had to have a new hard drive installed. The Apple Auth Repair Shop then updated the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. Now my iPhoto v 9.2.3 will not open and it sounds like it will not work with this OS. Can you please advise?
You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
installation current.

I have brought some movies and they just come up with this message that says it cannot be played on this iPod. I've bought movies before without iTunes Extras but these have iTunes extras and they don't want to sync with my iPod
Does anyone know what is wrong?Sounds like you are trying to sync the HD version of the video. You should try to download the Standard Definition copy instead and sync that to your device as HD content is only compatible with the 4G iPod Touch. See here for more information:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available. You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??
Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?
