Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like you have a program designed to run on Microsoft Windows, or even older (1980's) MS-DOS, rather than Mac OS X. If you have Windows on your Mac installed via Boot Camp, try booting into Windows first, and then loading the CD.  If you don't have Windows, it's probably cheaper to buy a new program designed for Mac than to purchase a copy of Windows (US$120 or more), not even knowing for certain if your old program will run.

  • Recently, I can't get any sound from my game applications.  Sound works fine with video, streaming, etc, but not my game applications.  I've tried powering down and re-booting, but the sound does not return.  Can anyone help me?

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

    Does the mail app display whatever is in the document without the ability to differentiate between hidden or non hidden images?
    The mail app will not display fillable form fields in PDF files that can be seen in real PDF apps. I say real PDF apps because the form fields in PDF apps will not appear in the iBooks app either. IMO, iBooks is not a real PDF app.
    So, I would say that the mail app cannot differentiate between hidden and non hidden items

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    I have seen a lot of cases like your issue, and it's easy to solve.
    First, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair permissions. Sometimes, a permission can be damaged and it makes that an application doesn't work properly.
    If that doesn't work, open Finder, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Library/Prefereces, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist" and restart

  • HT1848 I synced my on my iPad 2 to my pc yesterday and now I can not open any of my apps on my iPad2, those purchased and those that are free.  All it does if I click on the app is flicker but does not open.  can anyone help?

    I was told I could sync my music on my pc with my ipad2 by an apple agent.  I hooked my ipad2 up to my pc and did so, but now I can not open any of my apps on my ipad2.  when I try it just flickers and does not open.  Can anyone help?

    On you iPad, force close all the Apps in the multitask window.
    Follow these steps to force an app to close:
    From the Home screen, click the Home button twice. 
    Tap and hold on the app. 
    When it starts to jiggle, tap the to close it on by one until all cleared
    Now do a Soft reset of your iPad:
    Hold both Home and Sleep button for around 10secs until you see the Apple logo then release. After it returns to Home screen, try your Apps again and see if this resolves the issue.

  • When I try to share a project to theater I get the message Your Theater could not be opened.There was a problem reading your movies from iCloud and the project does not share. Can anyone help?

    When I try to share a project to theater I get the message Your Theater could not be opened.There was a problem reading your movies from iCloud and the project does not share. Can anyone help?

    Set up iMovie Theater and iCloud
    In order to take full advantage of the capabilities of iMovie Theater, you must be signed in to iCloud. If you are signed in to iCloud, movies and trailers shared to iMovie Theater are automatically uploaded to iCloud. You can also turn off automatic uploading, and upload just the movies and trailers you want, or delete individual movies and trailers from iCloud. For more information about the Theater, see iMovie Theater overview.
    If you sign out of your iCloud account on your Mac, all iCloud movies disappear from the Theater, but they are not deleted; the movies reappear when you sign in again. If you ever run out of space in iCloud, an alert icon appears in the top-right corner of your movie, indicating that you can’t upload new movies. For more information, click the icon. After you upgrade your iCloud storage or clear space, your movies automatically appear in iCloud again.
    Hide
    Set up automatic iCloud uploading
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and click iCloud.
    Make sure you’re signed in, and then select the Documents & Data checkbox.
    Click the Options button next to Documents & Data.
    Make sure the iMovie checkbox is selected.
    In iMovie, choose iMovie > Preferences.
    Select the “Automatically upload content to iCloud” checkbox.
    To turn off automatic uploading, deselect the checkbox.

    I try to sync my itunes with my iphon 4s 16gb but a message says that the sync fails can anyone help me?

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

    Does anyone know anything about onsite specifics?
    I'm wondering where the onsite warranty can be in effect.  Like, can it be used in ANY city in the US?  Can it be used only in metrololitan areas?  What is a metro area in Lenovo's eyes?
    Does anyone know where I can get better and accurate info on the onsite warranty?  Like a coverage map would be very helpful.  Because why should I spend the money on it, if I can't access it?
    Looking forward to more info...thanks.
    There is no coverage map as such.
    I live in what is considered a rural area and had techs driving 60-70 miles one way to get to me, never an issue.
    Obviously, YMMV.
    In my not-so-modest experience, both onsite and accidental damage upgrades are worth every penny if one intends to keep their ThinkPads for an extended period of time.
    Good luck.

    If you only changed the name of your ID rather than creating a new ID, just go to Settins>iCloud and tap Delete Account then sign back in with the new name.  (Deleting the account from your phone does not delete it from iCloud.  Your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.)
    If you created a new ID, you'll have to go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your other ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    You won't lose any photos in your camera roll or photo library.  If you have any photos in your photo stream that are over 30 days old that are not in your camera roll or saved on your computer, be sure to save these to the camera roll before deleting the account.  To do so, open the photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you need to save to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    I have an iphone 4S and it has been doing crazy things like typing on its own.  IT's like someone is shadowing my phone.  Also, the left side of the phone keys get frozen, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Nothng worst when you need to call or text someone urgently and i can not do it as computer takes over... thank and have a wonderful day!!

    More than likely a failing display. You can try restoring it to see if that helps, but you'll probably have to have the phone replaced. make an appointment at the genius bar.
