HT5246 If you have already been hacked, how do you remove the malware from your MAC

I just found out that i have been hacked, since a number of people on my contact list have received emails from me which I have not sent.
I already changed my password how do I check to see if the malware is still in the cimputer or how can I clean my computer of such.
Than you.

It's highly unlikely your Mac was hacked. The two most common causes of such emails:
1) Someone hacked into your actual email account, whichever ISP you're using for your email services. Such as Gmail, Hotmail, or the email system of the your Internet provider.
2) Much more common than the previous. A Windows user has your email address in their email client and a Windows email virus is sending out spoofed emails to everyone in their address book.

How do I remove the application from your iPad at the same time and with the clouds?

Hello,
how can I remove the application from your iPad at the same time and with the clouds?
I know you press the app icon until it starts shaking, then press the black cross in the upper left corner. This will remove it.
But still I will come in to the store as a bookmark Purchated I see it with the symbol of a cloud. And I would like to remove it for good. Under iOS 5.1.1 somehow I managed to do that (at least hide it). In iOS 6 I can not do that.
I greet

The only transition you can add this way is default cross dissolve. If the images are in the timeline, move the playhead to the beginning of the images, select them all, and drag from the timeline to the canvas to overwrite with transition.

'You have already purchased this item, would you like to buy it again?' ISSUES

This has happened to my twice now. I have bought songs on itunes, then at some point deleted the song from my itunes library and told it to hide it in the cloud or whatever. I only do this so that the songs that are not in my itunes library do not show as being in my itunes library.
Then, at some point I will decide that I want that song again. So, I go into itunes store and search for it in purchased, and it does not find it. So I then search for it in itunes store again, and it shows it there with the 99p next to it. So, I click on it to buy it, and it shows the message 'You have already purchased this item, would you like to buy it again?'. At first, I clicked no, and was back to square 1, without a song and it still showing the 99p next to it. So I did a search on google and found an article that said as far as I understand to just click buy and it would offer for me to re-download it for free.

So, I did that and it charged me for it.
Like I said, it has happened to me twice now, where I remeber buying a song, then hiding it in the cloud, and having to buy the song again. What can I do to stop this?? Is it a bug that I have to buy it again??
Thanks for your help, Danny

When it says your capacity is 6.43 GB does that mean how much memory you have used up or how much you have left

The 6.43 GB is how much storage that is available to you to use. The difference between 6.43 ansd 8 GB is taken up by the iOS.
The Available entry show how much is unused.

If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it.
To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.

So I downloaded the wrong Airplane Mode program for my operating system and I now have AppleScript Error message. It will not allow me to quit the program. Also, once that happens how do I remove the program from the computer?

So I downloaded the wrong Airplane Mode program for my operating system and I now have AppleScript Error message. It will not allow me to quit the program. Also, once that happens how do I remove the program from the computer?

What Airplane Mode program? To stop a running program launch Activity Monitor (in utilities folder) and quit the program from there. To remove the program drag it to the trash or better use the uninstaller that should have come with it.

Hi, I need the program of access from the office, so i'm going to but the Microsoft office 365 university, will i have to but any other program to use the access from my mac? or to open any database that I will have did from any other computer (not mac)?

There has never been a Mac version of Access. Microsoft never created one, realising that it was very inferior to the FileMaker Pro database application.
So if you must run Access you will have to run Windows on your mac.

How do i remove codec m from my mac

How do I remove codec m from my mac???
Every time I try to uninstall this program, it never works. I have tried moving the items to the trash, but the product still remains! HELP

My friend's MacBook was infected with this awhile back. Here is the order I would uninstall it. There is a LaunchAgent in /Users/<your username>/Library/LaunchAgents, move the launch agent to the trash, then restart your mac. After that, there is a named Codec-M in /Users/<your username>/Library/Application Support/, trash that whole folder. Finally, trash the app found in the Applications folder, and make sure that none of the web browsers (Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) have a Codec-M extension or add-on installed. If they do remove them and you should be good to go after you empty your trash.
