I goofed and I don't know how to fix it (silly problem).

So.... I changed my root shell to /sbin/bash
But I neglected to confirm whether /sbin/bash existed. It does not.
Now I cannot log in as root, or "su." It simply says, "No Shell." :(
Any ideas how I might remedy this?
Thanks in advance,
Mark

boot into single user mode from cdrom.
mount your root slice under /a.
cd /a/etc.
vi passwd
save it.

I have an iPad 2 and so does my mom. We both have the app Slotomania and now all of sudden after having it for months, our games connected and we don't know how to fix it. Deleting it and reinstalling does not work.

Does the app now use iCloud, do you use iCloud and do the two of you use the same account on iCloud?
Just a guess.

This may occur if you are connected to the Internet and iTunes is trying to connect to the iTunes Store and fails for some unknown reason.
Try this:
Quit iTunes and disconnect completely from the Internet.
IF you have an iPhone (iPod etc), open iTunes. Sync the device.
Re-enable your Internet connection.
Quit iTunes.
Open iTunes again.
If this does not work, try completely uninstalling iTunes, then reinstall it according to these instructions:

MBP = MacBookPro
Are there other accounts? Is it possible Firefox was installed on one of them?

My ipod touch says it is connected to wifi, but won't run anything that uses it like safari or itunes, and I don't know how to fix it

Can anyone help me? my ipod touch says it is connected to wifi, but it won't run anything that uses wifi like safari or itunes, and I don't know how to fix it

You didn't indicate if it ever worked. If it NEVER did, the problem could be caused by a firewall in the router. For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
You will need administrative access to the router. If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again. If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again. Repeat as required.

Close out of the mail app, then double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
Then do a reset, no data loss. Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Then check your email again.

I right clked on View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the pictures on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it

I right clicked on my mouse and clicked View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the profile pictures or images on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it. Everything is normal on Google Chrome.

See:
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

I have a canon MP610 printer and it is always offline and i don't know how to fix it. I have a mac lion.

I have canon mp610 printer connected to my mac lion pc...It is always offline and i don't know how to fix this problem.

Does File > Work Offline has a check mark when that happens?
You can try to create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false. 
Right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.
Name: network.manage-offline-status
Value: false

I erased ical and i don't know how to fix it, it still apears there but i erased the software.. what do I do?

What happened to me was that when I got my imac everything was workin perfecty, but two months later I erased the ICAL software by mistake. Now I can't open it because it says that I don't have the software or I don't know what it is talking about. But the strange thing is that the app still appears in my computer. Please help!
Thank you

This helped me.
Go to Start -- Accessories -- Command Prompt, make right click and choose run as administrator
Type this command : netsh winsock reset
then restart your computer, everything should be ok after this. Good Luck.

My tabs bar and tabs have all turned HUGE and I don't know how to fix it?

I have just opened the mozilla firefox 4 beta and all my tabs have turned really big. I've tried restarting my computer but it's still the same. Has anyone got any ideas on how to fix this problem without uninstalling firefox. Thanks.
By the way, I was fiddling about with the new "group your tabs" feature before this happened.

Sounds like you have to reset your display settings. Go to your control panel under 'my computer', go to 'display' and check your 'appearance' and 'settings'.
I really can't think of anything else that would cause this. Hope this helps.

You surely got a water damage, take it to a local Apple Store and let them replace your phone, if you don't have an Apple Store close by send it to Apple via Mail or go to a local electric shop like Best-Buy or something similair in your country.

My published iTunes podcast is untitled and I don't know how to fix it.

I published my podcasts on itunes the other day and they have their individual titles but they don't have an author or title - any ideas how I can fix it?

Not unless you would like to post the feed URL and the URL of your iTunes Store page.
