I got an update message for iOS 7 but can't download as it keeps shutting down and the wheel goes so slow that you can hardly see it moving and says it will take 5-6 hours to download approx. 64 megabytes

Which way are you trying to update - iTunes or WiFi in the iPad settings? Try switching from one method to the other method. If you don't have a computer and need to use WiFi, try closing all apps and then reboot your iPad and try again.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of all of the apps in the recents tray. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar when you are done.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
It wouldn't hurt to reboot your router either by unplugging it from power for about 30 seconds, plug it back in, let it fully start up and then try to update again.

HT4848 My install of OS X Mountain Lion says it will take about 29 hours, what should I do?

My install of OS X Mountain Lion says it will take about 29 hours, what should I do?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Probably, OS X Mountain Lion is being downloaded now. Normally, that time decreases quickly when the download progresses, so just wait until the OS X Mountain Lion download finishes and the Mountain Lion installation will start

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee
Cheers, Gerd

Please help, my iMac will not start up, the apple comes up and the wheel goes round but then I am left with a blank white screen. Has anyone any ideas.

Locate your original install disk (it's grey) and use it to restart your iMac by holding the "C" key during startup. Use the disk utility to repair your harddrive.

I recently bought a new mac including OS X Lion and the store manager told me that I can also trasfer it to my old mac but I don't know how!

You were given wrong information. The copy of Lion on your new Mac is licensed only for that machine, and you can't copy it to another one. If you buy the Lion upgrade from the App Store, you can install it on all the Macs you personally own.

I have ipad mini 2 updated to ios 7.1.2. Now ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo. I factory reset and redownloaded software in recovery mode. Still happening. What else can I do?

I have ipad mini 32gb. I updated to IOS 7.1.2. Since then ipad keeps shutting down and rebooting to the apple logo. It happens so many times I cannot use the ipad. I have tried factory reset and reinstalled software in recovery mode. Ipad is only 1 1/2 years old and in great condition. Is there anything else I can do besides soend $200 to fix it?

Sounds like a hardware issue to me going by the CRC error you mentioned. I'd make a Genius Bar reservation (you'll need your Apple ID) if you have a nearby Apple Store and get it evaluated. The evaluation is free but repair/replacement could incur other charges.

Got an update message for Flash Player

I tried to run the update, and keep getting a host error message that file is not available. I uninstalled prior version, and it still doesn't work. Never mind. I just tried it again, and it is installing now.

If you need more help, please provide your operating system & browser details.

I load firefox it checks the compatibility of the add-ons. They are compatible, I have confirmed this through an addon but it doesnt go away. I also always loads the "welcome to firefox page" that you usually get after an update. How do I stop this?

Click any firefox link and it loads a box first checking the compatibility. This can take anything from 20 seconds to 5 mins to complete. When that finishes it loads up the standard page you get up after you update firefox plus my homepage. It also freezes and lags ("not responding") briefly as well if I try to close it down and sometimes crashes.
This happens without fail every time that I load up firefox and some help would be much appreciated in resolving this.

The downloads disappear when firefox shuts down in the middle of a download

In the previous versions of firefox, I could stop my downloads in the middle, shut down my computer, restart and continue my downloads from that point on... but that doesnt seem to be the case with 3.6... I have to restart my downloads from the very beginning ... can you help me with this problem?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== as soon as i installed 3.6

Does it help if you remember Downloads: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember download history" ?
Also make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the download history
