HT4059 Recent iiBooks apps did not finish the install. Seems stuck. Any ideas?

I recently received an update for iBooks, so I attempted to update but it stalled in the process, and did not complete the update. Perhaps I should delete the app and reinstall? If so how do I delete an app? Never done that.

That sounds like a lot of story and finding the nuggests of data....
If you nuke an install, your system is dead.
If Boot Camp Assistant won't remove the FAT partition, erase / reformat and restore.
Step #1 is always BACKUP first so you can just do a restore to how things were.
Your story doesn't say which version of Windows, whether it was an ISO EDU or what.
An "Upgrade" copy may not be legit but it still boots.
Lots of people in the past killed / hard restarted in the middle of trying to partition or install Windows and ended up with nothing. Changing your mind "mid stream" can leave you unable to boot OS X as well.
Try booting from SL DVD and repairing your drive, you may even want to restore from your backups.
You have a MacBook Pro, put that and other details in your .sig to help people where it is clearer.

  • I lost all of my calender info and did not have the cloud activated. Any ideas on why that happened?  Any idea if I can get that back?

    I lost all of my calender info and did not have the cloud activated. Any ideas on why that happened?  Any idea if I can get that back?

    Not sure why this happened, but are you syncing calendar events direct with a supported calendar app on your computer?
    If not, calendar events are included with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. If you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since this data went missing, you can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup. Do not sync with iTunes before doing so, and do not update your iPhone's backup before doing so when prompted.

    After downloading Lion the noise level of (what I believe to be ) the fans increased. A humming noise which did not exist with Snow Leopard. Any ideas how to reduce this noise?

    I have seen this mentioned a dozen times, here, on Lion,and MacRumors.
    Nope. Usual suspects.
    And whether you tried a clean install instead (backup and erase) and then use MA to import

  • I have Keynote 6.2 and when my Mac Pro is hooked to a projector I cannot get the presenter notes to show on the computer screen and not on the projected screen. Any ideas?

    I have Keynote 6.2 and when my MacPro is hooked to a projector with a slide presentation I cannot see my presentation notes on the computer screen and not on the projected screen. Any ideas?

    Somethings obviously gone wrong with your installation of Keynote.
    Try this repair for Keynote 6.2,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
    2  empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash
    3  Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then hold down the Shift key while pressing the power button
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
    4   Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    5  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions
    6  when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
    7  install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • HT4796 i have successfully migrated the music but it just shows up in my files and has not updated my iTunes library which is still getting the music from iCloud and is not using the migrated files. Any ideas?

    I have successfully used windows migration software to move my music library from a PC to my MacBook Air.
    However the music files are just stored in my file system and have not updated my itunes files. Itunes is still getting the music down from icloud instead of using the music files.
    Any ideas?

    If you're using Windows Movie Maker and HP Photo to build slide shows, this is not an iPod touch issue (nor an iTunes issue), so I'd suggest you take up the problem on a web site that deals with Movie Maker or HP Photo issues. It's really not something we can help with in this forum.
    If you're building this slide show on your iPod, please post back and tell us what app(s) you're trying to use, and whether the iPod app on your iPod touch shows and plays your songs correctly. Knowing the specific model of iPod you have and the version of iOS it's running will probably also help.
    Regards.

  • EPMA 9.3.1 - Redeploying an application did not finish the job in EPMA

    I was redeploying an application in the EPMA library. The refresh completed in Essbase, but the job did not complete in the EPMA console - we are not able to access the application - message is "Error - Service was unable to process request--> there is currently no application deployment pending for application "IncStmt". As a result the application export status for the last export cannot be updated. (org.apache.axis.axisfault). I cannot do anything to the application - this error comes up immediately when you click on the application. Any ideas on how I can clear it?

    I did try changing the deploying time out but in the application library i still cannot redeploy my application.I even tried creating a new application and tried to deploy it but it too didnt deploy and shows the status as deployment pending.Is there any other way out.
    It shows:

  • I'm unable to get my macbook pro to work with an Optoma tx542 projector.  I've got a VGA adaptor, and the projector works with my old iMac, just not with the new macbook.  Any ideas?

    The projector recognizes it's a mac, since I see the mac desktop background on my screen when I connect, but I'm not seeing my desktop.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    ugh...i'll be sure to let you know...i'm beginning to regret buyin a mac now...one usually spends the bucks most of have dropped for a premium machine, to actually work. I don't expect every aspect to be perfect, but simple things such as functionality of applications developed for and by the same company making the machines should work...maybe its just because i'm more than a little peeved that i'm going through such trouble to do something as simple as put two pictures next to each other and upload the site (as it appears in iweb) on to the mobileme...
    I finally got it to upload, thanks Old Toad, and i got the pictures to upload...now they just don't appear next to each other as they do in iweb...i guess the good thing is that they are no longer covering text...
    now i'm presented with a second problem...i add a second entry to my blog and when i click on that directly i'm taken to a page saying it is not found...but when i go to the first entry and click next it takes me to the second entry page...although that page is ALMOST correct (the links do not have the same styling i applied to them in iweb)...
    and now i'm presented with a third problem...after adding the second entry i noticed on the blog listing page that my photo from the first entry did not move with it (another photo covering text problem)...so i tried using the graphic placeholder, but the image still does not show up on the main page...

  • HT1918 How can I see ALL transaction history in my account.  Specifically, I would like to see the gift cards I have redeemed for my account.  I know I have over $200 in my account but it is not showing the balance anywhere.  Any ideas?!?!?

    How can I see ALL transaction history in my account.  Specifically, I want to review the gift cards I have redeemed but the amounts are not showing up in my account.  I know I have over $200 in my account and I am unable to access it.  The site wants me to pay by credit card and I don't want to do that.  Any ideas how I can recover the money in my account?

    You can only view your account's purchase history, you can't view a history of card redemptions.
    My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iOS devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to).
    To view your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
    You've tried logging out and back into your account to see if your balance then shows ? If not, and you can't see where it might have been spent, then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help : 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

  • HT1926 I went to download the "new" version of I tunes 11.14 (Ibelieve), it did not finish the download and now when I try to access my account. I get Runtime error. I now am missing almost 2800 songs. What gives? And is the repair?

    What does Apple plan to do about the runtime DLL error your
