i have a ipod touch with 8gb.. ive plug it into itunes and have the apps i want in a tab but they wont even click and drag onto my ipod touch.. i havent even got apps store on my ipod can any1 help?
It appears that you have a first generation (1G) iPod and you need to update the iOS to get the apps store and to allow you to use most of the app in the app store.
To identify your iPod:
Identifying iPod models
To purchasce iOS 3.1.3, the latest iOS for the 1G iPod:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
You may have to use a different browser to get the sublink to work correctly.
Or you could have restrictions set on your iPod that is preventing installing apps and from the App Store app from showing on the iPod. To check go to Settings>General>Restrictions. -
i have firefox version 3.6.10, and until about a week ago, i had no problems clicking on pictures (example: on ebay) to enlarge them in a new pop window. i have tried disabling the pop up blocker completely, even though i had ebay as an "allow" site on my pop up blocker when it was enabled.
cant get any pop up to go through. in the lower left hand corner of the window, when i click on a link that should open a pop up window, all it shows is "javascript:;" and nothing happens
i have updated to the newest version of java and deleted older version.. still having issuesOuch, tough spot, but offhand I'd say some memory may have gone bad, or maybe just needs re-seating after all this time.
Not much you can do, but try this anyway...

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from the internet that was fine with Leopard before. I just got a black screen when I clicked on a pdf icon on a given internet site, and same happened with several sites that I visited. How can I overcome this obstacle ?
Try two things with Safari not running:
1) Launch Adobe Reader, open its preferences, select the Internet category, and check the values under "Display PDF in browser using". If it's checked, try unchecking it.
2) Look in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (at the top-level of your boot volume) for something names AdobePDFViewer.plugin. If you see such a file, try moving it to a folder named "Disabled Plug-Ins" (if such a folder exists) or onto the Desktop.
Then see how things work. -

I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install!
Hi
I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install, for example it says iPhoto is intalled but its not, i never copied it from the older imac, and i cant download it to this one now
any help appreciatedTry setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Good day
I have the situation where we are exporting PDF files from reporting services in our website.
When dividing the data into sections, the report exports perfectly, but when exporting the entire set and trying to open the file, we get the following error in Adobe Reader:
"There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired"
We tried to repair the file, no luck. We tried to use different PDF readers, no luck
We then checked the file sizes. When exporting the subsections, each section exports a file of about 2mb.
When exporting the entire set, the file is about 1.3mb.
Adding all the sections together gives me a rough estimate of 40mb.
Exporting to TIFF works beautifully and returns a file of 41.5mb. Word and Excel formats also work well, only issue there is the page numbering and formatting.
The problem we have is the clients are adamant about having it in PDF format.
Any advice please?This was one of the temporary suggestions I gave the client...
Unfortunately they do not like this as the page numbering and formatting in Word does not appear right. We are talking about over 1300 pages. I can't expect them to change the formatting with each export. Additionally, the data is
constantly changing and each client has their own data. The clients export the reports randomly. I therefore can't post the reports back onto the server.
Thanks for the speedy response though -

When I open up a PDF Document all i get is an error message saying: "There was an error opening this document. The network path was not found" I dont know how to fix this, so looking for some advice please, as I really need o open up my documents.
Thank for any help.The documents I’m trying to read are already saved on my computer, under various different headings, I know that we have a server, so I only assume these documents are saved on here, as I said before I’m not good with all this techno stuff. I do my work each week ( on a payroll system) and save the documents for each company, they automatically go to the correct place. I never request for them to be saved in a certain place ( well not that I’m aware of) . I then on occasions need to open up this information, it is then that I can’t read or open the documents. We do have a tech help, but they are off sick until the 5th Jan, hence me trying to work out if I can fix this problem through this help site. Its ADOBE Reader that I’m trying to use.

Trouble opening pdf's - I have received several pdf's from a friend via e-mail (Thunderbird). Some of them open just fine but others give me the message: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." My friend made sure that the files in question opened without issue on his computer (a PC). Further, I was able to open one of these "damaged" files on my Android phone, but I cannot open them on the Macbook Air. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Im creating PDFs through InDesign and using Acrobat Pro 9 to add fields. I save them to allow ADobe Reader people to use them. Everything works fine on Pro and Reader on my end with a PC as well as someone elses PC. But one person using Mac said some forms work and some dont. Those that dont get the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Ive resaved them and made sure they work and same problem. There is nothing overly coplex about the PDFs either, a date field at the most. They are using Reader 9.1.
I found out the other day that one person who can open them adds info to them saves them and send over to that other person and cannot open any of them after they have been edited, same error. He even tried on a PC and still gets it.
I dont know what to do. I know it has to be on his end and not mine. What else can I suggest to him??It sounds like they are using an earlier version of Acrobat or Reader, though you said Reader 9.1. If you add some features in AA9 that are new, it appears that earlier versions see the new features as damaged files. At least that is my guess. Try using Reduce File Size or PDF Optimize to save to an earlier version and see if that helps. The other option is that you are getting them messed up in e-mail because many client look at PDF files as ascii and do not encrypt them. In that case force the encryption. You can also send them in ZIP form.
