Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Why do I get a message that an unknown error occurred when trying to download a NYTimes cross-word using AcrossLIte, which happens only on Firefox 4?

With Firefox 3, I had no trouble downloading cross-word puzzles from the NY Times website, using the app. Across Lite. After installing Firefox 4, each attempt to download a puzzle evoked the message that the file could not be opened "because an unknown error occurred" The puzzles can still be downloaded through Safari and Camino, so the problem is probably with Firefox 4.

Reset IE to defaults.

Error box when I try and add songs

whenever I try to add new songs to my Ipod shuffle... a box comes up saying, "Ipod cannot be read or written to" and it won't add or delete any new songs. What should I do?

Tried to restore, but it doesn't work : I get another error box from iTunes ("unknown error (1418)").
So I cannot restore my brand new Shuffle...
Thanks for the answer though. Any other idea? (I've tried to reinstall iTunes, doesn't change anything)

Hi,
From your description, it seems that the address
sales@[domain].com has been used in another mailbox. I recommend you use the following cmdlet to find out which mailbox is using this address.
Get-recipient | Where {$_.EmailAddresses -match "[email protected]"} | select Identity, DisplayName, RecipientType. The mailbox which is using this address will show up in the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

I get this message "The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)" when I try and add any files to my Time Capsule

I get this message "The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)" when I try and add or delete any files to my Time Capsule. It just started happening a week ago.

I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.

Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that.

If you find that it is set to the correct region, log out of your iTunes Store account, restart your iPad, and sign into your account again.
Hope this helps.

Error message when I try to add an image to the header

I receive the following error message when I try to add an image to the header:
Acrobat.com encountered an unexpected error.
I have tried to add .jpg and .gif without success.
Thanks,

Hi,
We typically see this when an organizations IT department is blocking the upload of images. Are you working on this at work? If so, can you try adding the image outside your companies network?
Thanks,

I am not much of a computer technician. I bought a time capsule thinking I could use this for an external hard drive and keep my MAC hard drive free. Was I mistaken? One I back everthing up on the TC, can I delete everything off of my MAC?

TC was designed to backup your Mac. The TC literature is pretty clear about this:
If your Mac's hard drive has a problem....it will sooner or later....you can use your backup on the TC to rebuild your Mac.
But.....if you move all of your data to the TC from your Mac....you only have one version of that data now, and it is on the TC.
Have you thought about what will happen when....not if....the TC has a problem? Since the only version of your important data was on the TC, and the TC has failed......you lose all of your data.....because you have no backup.
A much better plan would be to add a USB or FireWire hard drive and connect it directly to your Mac. Move the data on your Mac over to the hard drive.
Then, the TC will backup both your Mac and the hard drive. So, you have original data on on one drive and backups on another drive.
That would be a minimum backup plan. Most of us have more than one set of backups.

Normally this error means a secure connection to the iTunes Store has failed. Try the steps in the article below as it may help resolve this issue.

I converted a heap of music using 'switch', when i try and add this music to library iTunes will not load it??

i converted a heap of music using 'switch', now when i try and add this to library itunes will not load???

Unless the MUST be AAC, try FreeWMAtoMP3Changer: http://www.wma-mp3.com/free-wma-to-mp3-converter/
The ONLY caveat with it is: You CAN'T drag & drop files on it to open them. You MUST use the browse function to select them. If you drag and drop, it multiplies the output files. A 10 track album will produce 45 converted files.

I tried updating my ipod touch to iOS6 then an unknown error occured so i disconnected it an now it is stuck on the apple sign and has a loading sign and has been like this for 2 hours. what can i do?
My home button is also unresponsive and i have to press it really hard to make it work.

Do you remember the the exact wording of the error message:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
