I got Mavericks and now clicking my mouse doesn't work in many apple programs, is there anything I can do to fix this, and is Apple working on a fix for it?
Clicking buttons doesn't work in calendar, preview, or updates, and it also doesn't work in fullscreen videos viewed on youtube. Right click seems to work like a left click, but not for everything. Clicking the mouse works in other programs.

I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?
Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension: .html for a HTML backup and .json for a JSON backup.<br />
You can check that via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties.<br />
If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File"<br />
A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.<br />
A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":<br />
An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
You may need to add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension.

I purchased illustrator 8.0 on ebay and apparently it is not compatible with windows 7. Is there anything I can do to use this program?
Beverly,
Yes.
You may need to run the computer in XP mode to install it (you may try in normal mode first). Here is how:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7
Once installed, you should be able to get it to run with the PC in normal mode as follows (first run):
1) RightClick the shortcut;
2) Click Properties;
3) Click Compatibility;
4) Tick Run this program in Compatibility mode for, then select XP in the dropdown list;
5) Start AI8.
After that, you can just DoubleClick the shortcut.
Hopefully, you bought it legally (with a genuine, non registered serial number, or had a licence transfer). -
Since I upgraded to Mavericks, every time I create a multicam clip on FCPX, random files(that were used to make the multicam clip) become modified and unusable(in High Quality). Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
I've tried transcoding, creating proxy media, creating optimized media, plus I've tried none of the above. Thing is, no matter what I do, it still happens(to random files) "after" I make the multicam clip. Is there a setting or something that was accidentally enabled by me or the upgrade?
BTW: Everything seems to work fine when 'playback' is set to proxy. The problem is when I'm ready to export and switch 'playback' to High Quality.I had this same issue! But fixed it by going into the finder, finding the event, and delted the files out of the "High Quality Media." My project then refreshed to normal and no red modified file slides. The cool part: I din't even shut fcpx down to mess with the files in the finder. It all worked like a charm.
Good luck! -
i bought ipad 2 wifi and discovered wifi and 3G will be better since wifi coverage are not everywhere. Is there anything i can do to make it 3G compatible?
No.
You cannot add 3G to the device itself.
You have a 14(?) day return period to swap it out.
You can get a device called a mifi, it's available on several carriers. -

BEST BUY NOT STANDING BY THEIR EXCHANGE/RETURN POLICY..
WHen I first attempted to exchange, I was well under BEST BUY return policy of 30 days...but wouldn't you know they finally responded to me stating they would not be able to offer me an exchange because NOW the return term time had NOW expired....
SO they waited until my return period had expired to reply and tell me they couldn't and wouldn't exchange it
because my return/exchange period had expired...
Well then that's clearly illegal isn't it? Contact the TN Attorney General's office. -
My macbook pro says Shockwave Flash plug-in has crashed pretty much every day. I have to shut the computer down and restart to fix it. Is there any way I can keep this from happening?
Download the latest version from here ONLY:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
also, make certain your Mac OS X software is completely up-to-date. There is a Trojan Horse that pretended to be a Flash update, and installed Flash with malware included. The latest security updates removes the malware and all older versions. -

It's not even a month old, but as soon as I turn it on, the fan turns right on and my computer sounds like it is going to explode. It also gets very warm. Any ideas?
check to see what you have loading in your login items. delete the ones you don't need.
open activity monitor, and under all processes, see what's using most of your cpu resources. highlight the ones using the highest % cpu and hit quit process.
see if the sorts it out for you. -
Hello. I have an iPhone 4S. I need to get a picture sent to me a little over a month ago. It is still in iMessages in a conversation. However, as i scroll up and click on the picture, iMessages closes down on me. Is there anything I can do to get this picture?
Close out of the message app, 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 your phone to boot back up.
Then check and see if you can save the pic. -

Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page..
[BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
I hope this helps!
EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful! -
We just upgraded our system to Maverick. Now our majic mouse does not respond to the finger swipe at all.
Also the volume contro;s stopped working on the wireless keyboard.Hi davidgraham193,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Magic Mouse is not scrolling, first go to the Mouse section of System Preferences and try toggling the "Scroll direction: natural" checkbox to see if it has an effect.
Scroll direction: natural:
Select this option to move the contents of a window the same direction as your fingers.
