HT3662 Have at least a malware, or it could be worst. Need to know where  in app store "Virus Barrier or CLANXAV

I am not sure exactly what happen, but I was reading my e-mail and I like  the article.  Since  I was slow in typing , I notice some strange additional typing not my own while checking my spelling/tenses. Frankly, in my personal opinion, it is  more a of compliment for  the well- written article I meant to the people very close to me. I think nothing of the offensive insertions which whoever wrote  must be in real bad mood to disagree with my point of view. That is if  anybody can do that  i must have a malware , a trojan, or must be re-directed.  I took out  the offensive  words, put my own opinion & sent my e-mail which failed. Need to verify if it is true?

I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about. Can you be a little clearer about exactly what happened? It sounds like someone may have modified something you wrote somewhere, but I have no idea where or how. Getting a clear description of the symptoms will be extremely important for identifying the cause.
Your profile indicates that you are running the latest version of Mountain Lion (Mac OS X 10.8.5), but you have posted in the Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5) forum. Which system are you running? (Check by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu).
I suspect, since you mentioned the App Store in your subject, that you are running Mountain Lion. In that case, it's very unlikely that this is malware. There is currently no known malware capable of infecting that system.

  • I have a iMac 21,5" Intel mid 2011 and I need to know if is possible I change the original 500Gb HD for a 512Gb SSD? If yes, where I find a tutorial about this? Thanks a lot and best regards all.

    Hi people,
    I'm typing from Brasil, sorry my English.
    I have a iMac 21,5" Intel mid 2011 and I need to know if is possible I change the original 500Gb HD for a 512Gb SSD?
    I intend to keep the original DVD driver and install the SSD in the same HD place.
    If yes, where I find a tutorial about this?
    And I will like to know if the 512GB Solid-State Drive Kit for Mac Pro is compatible with iMac.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC731ZM/A/512gb-solid-state-drive-kit-for-mac- pro?fnode=5f
    What brand and model of SSD do you recommend?
    Thanks a lot for now and best regards all.

    Since the late 2009 iMacs came out, replacing the hard drive has caused the internal Hard Drive Fan to start running at around 6000RPM.
    This is due to Apple replacing the external Hard Drive temperature sensor with a proprietary firmware and using the drives internal sensor.
    Replacement drives do not contain the firmware to deliver temperature data on the temperature sensor cable.
    When the iMac does not receive a good signal from the hard drive it puts the fan at full speed to protect the drive.
    If you replace your drive, your iMac will initially seem fine, but soon the fan will begin to speed up to full speed. Resetting the SMC (System Management Controller) will have a temporary effect, but again the fan will speed up.
    Fixes people have used in the past included:
    Using smcFanControl and the terminal to set a MAX speed for the fan and writing scripts to start this after every sleep/restart.
    Shorting the temperature sensor cable (Not a possibility on 2011 iMacs) this tricks the iMac into thinking the drives temperature is very low, hence slow fan speed.
    Both these fixes are less then perfect and leave the drive in a dangerous situation with no protection from overheating.
    Another option people try is other Fan Control software. These programs will not work for this particular issue as they often only control the base speed, and if they do control the fans actual speed they rely on the temperature reported by the sensor which is now incorrect.
    HDD Fan Control
    HDD Fan Control works to fix this issue by reading the drives internal temperature using the S.M.A.R.T protocol and set the fans actual speed to a value good to protect the drive.
    It runs at startup and continually to always control the fan correctly, prevent the loud fan noise and protect the drive from overheating
    Instead of HDDFan Control, get the free SSDFan Control

  • I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store.

    I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was.  I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

    I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software.
    The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems  with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

    Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
    If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here:   ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist    That will take you right to that file.
    (.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
    It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.

  • HT201272 I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store

    I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store?

    You can download the current versions of the apps from the store e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading. But you may find that the current versions require higher iOS versions than you have on your iPod - in which case have you not got copies of the older versions of those apps on your computer's iTunes or on a backup ?

    Hey there FlamingTurd!
    If you are having issues connecting to the App Store on your phone, there is an article here that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    We also have an article that deals with troubleshooting apps you have downloaded from the App Store and installed on your computer. That article can be found here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Finally, if neither of those articles resolve the issue, you may need to restore your iPad:

  • HT4484 I have changed my apple I'd but am having a problem with iCloud and the App Store accepting the changed I'd what do I do?

    I changed my apple I'd  but the App Store and iCloud are still using my old ID. What do I do to get them to use my new Id?

    An iCloud acount is tied to the Apple ID, if you have created a new Apple ID then you will need to create a new iCloud account.
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/account/
    All content that you bought using the old Apple ID is forever tied to that ID can only be redownloaded, updated and access using that Apple ID. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another and Apple does not merge Apple IDs.

    I am getting an error message with my snap scan ix500 that says the Evernote is not installed properly when I try to transfer it.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled evernote and the scan snap softward but it still doesn't work.  Anyone know where evernote stores their files on a Mac?  Or had this problem.

    Are there any dialog boxes popping up behind your Yahoo screen?
    I have intermittent problems attaching files in Yahoo mail and this is usually the reason.  I'm also using an iMac (10.7.3) and this is likely the problem.
    It is generally a Yahoo issue rather than a Mac problem.

  • HT1338 I have iphoto '09 but want to buy iphoto '11, I can't upgrade and the app store will not let me buy it saying I already have it?

    Can someone help me? I want to be able to use the stream option from my iphone

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Before purchasing iPhoto '11, you have to uninstall iPhoto '09. Open Finder, select Applications in the sidebar and delete iPhoto, emptying Trash. Then, open App Store and purchase iPhoto '11. Before opening iPhoto '11, I recommend you to create a backup of your iPhoto library (on Pictures folder) on another folder
