I can not get Iphoto to open
I've tried three times to open Iphoto 4.0.3 and all I get is the spinning rainbow ball. It goes for ever and fianlly I have to force a re-boot as everything done.
I've copied all my photos to a cd and dumped all the folders I created in Iphoto. I tried to start up the application again after I deleted these files and it still will not open.
What can I do?
Pip:
Do you have a copy of your full iPhoto Library folder? How did you copy the photos to the CD and exactly what folders did you dump? Also how much free space do you have on your HD?

I purchased a new imac (4G, OS X 10.6.8) in Feb 2011 and thought my old iPhoto library transferred over. It wasn't. And I can't get iPhoto to open on my old mac. It says, "can't open your current version of iPhoto using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto". I don't think my old mac will support the newer version of iPhoto so I feel like I'm stuck (this is why I got a new mac -- cheaper than upgrading all my software, etc). Help! I really need to get to my old photos, and no, they are not backed up anywhere. Thanks.
You have two options:
Run the Library on a machine that has the same version as the machine that was stolen.
or
Recover the files from this library and start over from scratch.
To recover the files:
Go to your Pictures Folder (or whereever you have the back up) and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Your originals are in the Masters folder.
Note this will only recover your photos as imported from you camera.

I can not get itunes to open on Windows 7...
I just got a new iPhone and wanted to back up my old iPhone to my computer one more time before switching over...Two hours later I still can not get iTunes to open. I have two different acounts on my computer, iTunes will load on the secondary account, but not my main account. I logged into iTunes on that account and now have issues with libraries, and overriding and synching and deleting, and a million other messages that made me nervous about backing up my phone through the secondary account. I just want to get iTunes to work on my main account. I have tried several different things, and am getting incredibly frustrated. Just in case I messed up a step of the "obvious" fixes, I would appreciate anything anyone could suggest to help Thank you!
Doublechecking. Have you tried the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document?

I have been using pages for months and now I can not get it to open any templet or previous document to open?
A little more information would be helpful.
What version of Pages are you using? The latest is 4.1 with the update released on July 20. In Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you need at least Pages 4.0.5. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
If you are running at least Pages 4.0.5 & haven't made any other changes to your Mac since Pages was last working correctly, the likely culprit is corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences & delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plst & restart Pages. -
HT4539 my ipad is disabled and I can not get it to open my main screen
my ipad id disabled and I can not get it to open my main screen, how can i regain access to the product
If it's showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. -

How can I get iPhoto to open?
Suddelnly, after working perfectly since I bought this iMac, iPhoto won't open. It's there in the dock but it simply won't open. I am very worried about my photos and ensuring that they are there AND that I can access them. Online forum don't give any clear guidance. Can anyone give this computer illiterate iMac user some really clear instructions as to how to solve this problem? Thanks.
Do you get any errors or any on-screen messages when you try to open it? If not then you may need to rebuild the iPhoto Library. Please read:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2638
and see how the instructions there work for you. -
Apparently when I close Firefox it doesn't really close. I get told when I try to open Firefox later "Firefox is still open, you must close Firefox, Then reopen it. Then I hit Alt, Ctrl & Del, go to process's then I have to close it then reopen it. It does not open until it is closed in process's.
The process can take a few seconds to close. Sometimes you need to use Task Manager.
