How do I disable the feature that asks, "...is an application that was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?" I get this message every time I double-click to unpack a zip file.

I am using Firefox 6.0 (I know it's an older version, but I am a doctoral student at a university that is whose system is, at this time, only compatible with this version) on an Intel Mac.

If using a mouse, you can right click on the application installer this will give you an "Open with" popup and you can chooes to open the application installer using the standard installer.
Another method to do the same exact thing is to hold the Control key while left clicking on the Application installer will give you the exact same popup menu.

I have been charged twice for coins for a game that was downloaded thru the itunes store, how do I get reimbursed or cancel charges

I purchased coins to play a game thru iTunes store on a game that was downloaded from the apps, however both times I purchased the charges were recorded at least twice, once it was charged three times. How do I get these reimbursed or reversed?

You can contact iTunes support via email via this page (I'm not aware of any phone support for iTunes) : 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

Disabling that"..is an application which was downloaded from the Internet."

Downloaded Camino and use it. Now I do not want that warning anymore on every start. I do not give **** how Apple rates security of the file. I know the application is safe so I want to click some checkbox to disable warning on Camino start:
'“Camino” is an application which was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?'
The only unsafe Camino is to Safari as recent version of Safari is really troubled with hick-ups and freezes while Camino seems to be very similar except that it does not have those issues Safari has.
I can only say what guy named Yeroen (read it if want):

It is really Microsoft way. Can Apple get rid of that troll recenly hired in the company that makes Mac OS X now look like piece of... art that behaves so obnoxiously to a user? I cannot guess where Apple got those new ideas, but they definitelly look like some transplant from Vista and XP obnoxiousness. The only what comes to my mind is some folks that were contracted or hired from Microsoft. Shortsighted with narrow vision and lack of basic education on ergonomics of any user interface.
Hey Apple I dropped Windows because of that! Why do you do this to me now?

Okay. It looks like when copying from mounted .dmg file to Applications folder one needs to start Camino on that account and say once to allow start. This has to be done on account that was used to copy the file from downloaded .dmg.
In my scenario, I have administrative account which is separate from users (and of course my own as I am not administrator daily). So Camino was bothering me until I went to administator account and started Camino once. Apparently it had to make some writings into hidden system files to rememeber the choice and the choice was made across accounts.
I remember that similar issues were in Final Cut Express: you had to start the application from administrative account (the one that you used to install the application) once and after that you could easily go and use the application on other accounts at any time.
Looks like this is some sort of pattern which I considered ill as user really should not need to do that pointless start on account that is not supposed to be used for the application. Installation account and use account should be interpretted as two separate with no overlap of preferences. Now this issue was in FCE,but as far as Camino... it sounds like Apple extends this lame pattern to security control and internal system preferences.

"........" is an application which was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?

I get the following warning every time I try to open a recently download application. I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3
"xxxxx' is an application which was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?
How do I disable this warning for a particular application?
Update: problem solved. The Mac in question has multiple users, but only one user has administrator privileges. The problem was simply that the application in question had never been opened by the administrator. Once the administrator opened the application the warning went away.

If using a mouse, you can right click on the application installer this will give you an "Open with" popup and you can chooes to open the application installer using the standard installer.
Another method to do the same exact thing is to hold the Control key while left clicking on the Application installer will give you the exact same popup menu.

HT4914 How can you tell which songs are downloaded from the cloud on an ipad

How can you tell which songs are downloaded on the iPad from the cloud?

I know ipad albums are more like tagging photos rather than putting them in folders. I just have a nagging feeling I missed some pics and I have too many to try to go figure out one by one. I don't look at my photos from the camera roll, only from albums I tagged just because I imported photos from different sources and the dates and order is really messed up. I just want to know that I am viewing all the photos from like this vacation or that event and there's none I missed that are only in the camera roll.

How do you view a friend's screen over the internet

how do you view a friend's screen over the internet, not on the same LAN?
for 10.8.x and 10.9.x?
thanks,

Look at LogMeIn, GoToMyPC or any other 'remote access service'.
LogMeIn
GoToMyPC
Apple has 'Back to my Mac' which could work well, however it is tied into iCloud & frankly makes it a real pain handling passwords to set it up.
I think the Messages application can allow you to request that someone can control the Mac via 'screen sharing' too, but I haven't tried across different OS X versions.

"Firefox.app" is an application which was downloaded from the Internet...

This is a topic that has been posted before but I'm creating a new one because the previous discussion is closed and none of the answers solved my problem.
Each and every time I launch Firefox, I receive the following warning, - “Firefox.app” is an application which was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?"
For the record, I have tried the following fixes with no success:
- Removed the Firefox folder from user/library/application support both as a user and as an admin.
- I logged in to the Mac as an admin. and launched Firefox. The message continues to pop up after doing this, while still logged in as admin.
- I logged in to the Mac as an admin, went to Terminal and listed the attributes. The "com.apple.quarantine" attribute does exist, however, when I tried removing it with (xattr -d com.apple.quarantine <FILE NAME>), I am told that the attribute DOESN'T exist. Huh?
I am trying to avoid completely removing Firefox and doing a fresh install but it may come down to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I had a similar problem with another application. I downloaded an update to an application from the developer, and then got this message every time I ran the program. There's a script to disable this behavior entirely on MacWorld's macosxhints site.
I didn't want to disable this behavior for good, just for this one program. I realized that I had downloaded it as one user, but the first use (of the update) was as a different user. I logged in under the user ID that I used when I downloaded the application and ran the program. After that, the warning went away.
My guess is that you did something similar. Log in as the user ID you used when you first downloaded the updated FireFox and run the program. The warning should go away.
If you can't remember which user ID you used, try the brute force approach - log in as each of your user IDs and run FireFox.
Good luck!

"Firefox" is an application which was downloaded from the Internet - Open?

Everytime I go to open up programs (for example, firefox) I get a dialog box like this:
“Firefox” is an application which was downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?
Underneath it says "AppFresh downloaded this file on May 3, 2009". These programs are installed via an administrator, but I don't want to have to click yes every time on my standard account. What can I do?

Peter:
I don't want to have to click yes every time on my standard account.
As noted in earlier posts, you should get that message the first time you launch firefox or any other downloaded application. If you get the message each time, for some reason the computer thinks it is the first time you are launching the application. Are you sure that the application is installed in the application folder? Or are you launching from the .dmg each time? If you are,
double click on the .dmg file.
When it opens drag the icon to the Applications folder and it will be permanently installed. You will need to authenticate to install, but you should not have to authenticate each time you launch the application.
Drag any icon that you have in the Dock to the Desktop
Then launch the application.
If you want to keep it on the dock click and hold on the icon
Select Keep in Dock in the pop-up menu.

How would you tell if there was damage on the inside?

I was just wondering, would there be any signs that if you dropped it, something was broken on the inside? Or is there nothing to really break on the inside?

The symptom is that it does not work right

How do you uninstall programs?

This is my first time using a Mac, so I'm still learning how everything works. It took me a while to discover you had to drag programs to the "Applications" folder to install them.
How would I uninstall a program? Is it a simple matter of dragging the program to the "Trash", or is it more involved like it is on Windows?

For a few applications, to completely eradicate them you can do spotlight searches to find helper applications associated with the app you're trying to fully delete. For instance, if you want to get rid of Photoshop, there are a few of updater programs and internet plugin files that are associated with photoshop that you'll have to search for (or find some other way) and uninstall. Luckily, most apps bundle the helper programs in them (such as iTunes and the iTunesHelper app) so if you delete the main application, all the others go with it. I love that OS X can have very complex applications all wrapped up in one package instead of requiring uninstallers. However, for system enhancing utilities (preference panes, etc) the apps have to bury plugins and extensions in the system folders, but as folks mentioned these usually come with uninstallers.

How do you import video that was on VHS that is now on DVD into FCE 4?

The footage that I will be using is was on VHS and was then put on to DVD. I just have no idea if and how to import it into FCE 4. All the footage is archival that was on VHS and is being used in a documentary. So it would be great to know how to do this and any help would be great! ohh I'm also new to the FCE 4 world!

Welcome to the forum!
It would be better to work with the VHS directly as DVD-Video is highly compressed. But if that's all you have to work with, you have two options: hardware or software.
The hardware method involves connecting a DVD player's analog outputs to a qualified DV device (camcorder, VTR or converter) then connecting the DV device to your Mac via Firewire.
The software method means using MPEG Streamclip or DVDxDV to convert the DVD's VOB files into an editable format.

How do you Uninstall Programs with Mac OS

I know this sounds like a simply question but its not as easy as windows, is there like an uninstall section on the tiger OS ?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Most applications create preference files which are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can located them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.
There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
AppZapper
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at www.versiontracker.com or www.mackupdate.com.
