I got a funny thing that claimed to find viruses on my system then wanted to download and install a security screen. I have Avast Pro and that showed no threat. Is the thing I got fake?

The only other thing I can describe is the screen shot claiming that my system was infected. I don't believe it and the file it wanted me to permit was not a mozilla address and not a .com or .net.

It will be a fake, there are many of them out there. For a description of one of the variants of this type of malware see http://www.2-viruses.com/remove-anti-virus-2011
If you believe you may have been infected, try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
* Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
* SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
* Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
* Windows Defender - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx
* Spybot S&D - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html

Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

Search Query that shows articles based on the current logged in users Office location

Hi,
I've set up a "news" channel that shows articles targeted to the current user. Basicly this on done by queryting the property of the custom "Office Location" termset.
My setup is something like the following in my term store:
The setup works perfect now. countries are not taggable so at the moment the user needs to choose City 1.. City 2 etc. for their articles which works fine since sometimes articles are also only targeted to cities and not countries.
Anyways now we have got 2 users in City 4. Here it makes no sense that articles should be targeted City 3 and City 4 in order to show articles to entire Country 2. Basicle what I want here is that if an article is targeted with City 3 it should also be shown
to City 4 users.
How is this archived best? I have tried to make the Countries available for tagging as well, however it not show anything since the user property of course still is City 3 or City 4.
Thanks for your time

Hi,
You can not get hold of the parent in your scenario. You want the parent of the tagged term in the user profile, and there is no built-in mechanism in search to get this. So as I mentioned you have to use JSOM to get the parent term, and then use that in
your owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:term query.
owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:{User.SPS-Location.IDWithChildren}
would be a valid query, except it won't help you much :)

Your Apple ID is tied to the US store. Log out of the store, then trying logging back in.

When I click on an Icon on my desktop to take me to a site (such as google) I get a message that it could not find the loaction. Then it goes ahead and opens a Firefox window with the site anyway as if the message never happened.

When I click on an Icon on my desktop to take me to a site (such as Google) I get a message that it could not find the location. Then it goes ahead and opens a Firefox window with the site anyway as if the message never happened. Then when I close the window I see that the message is still there. I have to close it separately. Any suggestions? Oh, and this only happens if Firefox is NOT already active. If I have another Firefox window open when I click on the Icon, it just opens as expected. This message appears no matter which site Icon I select. It did not happen before I upgraded to ver 9.0.

Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

Just setting up iCloud on my iMac, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number stil

Just setting up iCloud on my iMac 10.9.2, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number still shows as number that the verification code is being sent, I prompt "Don't have access to this phone" and that's no help at all. The only way I can sign out /off from iCloud is to uncheck everything that I wanted to keep in the cloud????
Thanks in advance for any help.

Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

Is there a table/report that shows a list of the original tcodes vs tcodes?

How to I find out the calling tcode of a transaction other than using SE93?
e.g
ABUM 's original tcode is AB01.
Is there a table/report that shows a list of the original tcodes vs tcodes?

Table TCDCOUPLES gives a list of called tcodes for a particular tcode.
e.g
For parameter tcode 1KEF , called-tcodes are :
1KE1
1KEF
1KEG
OKKS
BUT this table does not show which called-tcode is the original tcode.
Using se93, I see that 1KEG is the original tcode.
Is there a table that will show only the parameter tcodes vs orginal tcodes?

çnow won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal

I bourght "E O Wilson's Life on Earth" and backed it up to my iMac. Now it won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal?
I also made the big mistake of downloading a free book about the making of the movie "Frankenweenie." Mega-memory eater. Now it wants to download additions and started to do so---now says paused. I can't delete the bloody thing. Seems like nothing I've downloaded, including free books, can be deleted. How can I get rid of this garbage?
Is there any way to just transfer my music from my iMac to my iPad and not affect anything else on my iPad? The whole iBooks thing is just a mess as far as I'm concerned. Is there any way to just drag and drop?

"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.
