HT4623 I can't find and download a software update, though it shows one available. How do I get the download

I can't update my i phone 4s. It shows a software update ready. Then when I try and download it searches a really long time and then says "UNABLE TO CHECK FOR UPDATE- An error occurred while checking for a software update." That's it. Where do I go from here? Thanks.

How are you trying to update, direct on your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update, or via your computer's iTunes ? If via your computer then you will need iTunes 11.1 installed : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

I ordered Quicktime Pro. I have a serial number and and my ordered status shows that it was electronically sent. It is not in my download folder or in my list of applications. How do I get the download, if I have a serial number?

There is no download as such. When you purchase QT 7 Pro, you are just purchasing a registration key that "unlocks" the QT 7 "Pro" editing features already built into the QT 7 Player but not activated without the key. Since you are listed as using the Lion OS, you need to check your "Applications > Utilities" folder to see if QT 7 is already installed there.
If it is, then you will need to open the app, open the "Registration..." window under the "QuickTime Player 7" Menu and enter the "Registered To:" and "Registration code:" entries to activate the "Pro" features. Be sure to follow the instructions found on the web page I will post below.
If it is not already installed in the "Applications > Utilities" folder, then you will have to first download and install the special QT 7 Player v7.6.6 software found on the download page which is linked to the web page containing both installation and registration instructions which is included below.

Sometimes in a busy area, like a large shopping mall, my WIFI dropdown menu has a dozen or more selections, and my own hotspot (MIFI) does not show up. How do I get the Mac to ignore the dozen other options and find just my MIFI connection?

After downloading OS X I can't find any of my photos I had on my mac. How do I get them back?

After downloading OS X I can't find any of my photos I had on my mac. How do I get them back?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

the appletv will not display your movies in folders.
you could change the tags in itunes to include the genre in the "show" field in the "video" tab. this would replicate the view you want, but you will need to tag all your movies to do this.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account. The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

- Transfer your iTunes' purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Try making a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup.
- Connect your new iPod and restore the iPod from that backup if you wish.

Connect the 5 to a computer and see if it is recognized. If so copy the pictures from phone. If not, you are out of luck.

Saved download for Camera Raw update. still can't open Raw pic in CS5. How do I get the downloaded files to work so I can open Raw images? thanks, Artist Ray

Bought new camera to work with Raw images in CS5 but file would not open so I downloaded latest update. It only allowed me to save in a file ( could have OPENED instead of saving so I don't know those results). How do I get the new download to work in CS5?
Thanks for your help, Artist Ray

Bought new camera
Which camera make and model?
Supported cameras
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Compatible Adobe applications
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

I am the account owner in charge of purchases but the software will be used by different people - how should I do the download and install for them?

If you need several copies of Acrobat (the license is per user), then you should talk to Adobe Sales about a volume purchase. I am not sure of the details, but probably the best way to go. In that case, I think all are on the same S/N and you pay according to the number of activations or such. Again, I am not sure and you need to talk to Adobe. Adobe is currently pushing the cloud and subscription versions and you might want to discuss the various options with them.

How do I get the download window in iTunes 11?

Hi there,
Back in the iTunes 10 days (ie last week) there was an option for a download windowin the sidebar that popped up when you were downloading things - eg podcasts from the iTunes Store. If you clicked on it you got a new window showing what you were currently downloading or what was in the queue to be downloaded. This doesn't seem to appear in iTunes 11 - is there a setting that I can change to get this back?
When you are downloading over 10 podcasts each day it is helpful to leave it on that list so you have an idea of what is coming through the feeds, and possibly delete a few episodes from an ongoing subscription if they didn't sound interesting. Now it seems that you have to hover by your PC to see what comes up at the top of the screen, which is a bit stupid.
Any clues on how I can get the download page back, or whether there is some alternative way you can look at a list of recently downloaded podcasts by date (other than by looking at the "unplayed" list - I've got over 600 unplayed episodes).
I suspect that this may be a really stupid question with a really simple answer. Please, let me have it - I'm stumped!
Any suggestions welcomed.
Cheers, TF

I found this article with the explanation on how to find this again. In the upper right corner of itunes (only when an item is downloading) you will see a downward facing arrow inside a gray circle with a blue status bar type line below it. If you click that it will show you your downloads progress.

How do I get the downloads popup/tab to go back to the old place (on the left side?) Now that I have the latest update of Firefox, it moved it over to the right

I would like to get the downloads tab to go back to the way it was, before this most recent update. Now that I have the latest update of Firefox, it moved over to the right. The little hand won't budge it. And the download interface is different, now it is under something called 'library', I liked the old way much better - any way to restore it to that?

Can you clarify what you mean with ''downloads popup/tab''
Is this the pop-up that you see when finishing a download or do you mean the pop-up you see if you hover a link?
When a download is in progress then you see a download progress bar on the Navigation Toolbar instead of the Download Manager button and that button is highlighted once the download has finished to make you aware the their are new downloads.
You can view the new Download Manager in a tab by opening the about:downloads page and consider to open this page in a separate window.
