I have a 15 inch mac book pro running osx 10.5.8. I recently moved to FL and switched to Comcast (only option). Now when I access one of my banks, I can get past the login page and the opening page of my account but the data is unavailable. Bank no help.

I have a 15 inch mac book pro running osx 10.5.8. I recently moved to Florida and switched to Comcast (the only option). Now when I access my bank website, I can get past the login to my account page but the data is permanently unavailable. The bank says no one else has this problem. Everything is up to date as far as software is concerned. . .I just update anything that comes up. I have not had this problem with this computer anywhere else and I am not having a problem with any other website. I have the problem with both Safari and Google Chrome.

Are you recovering Lion or later Time Machine backup with a Lion or later machine?
If you are, then use this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
Other Time Machine restore options are here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
Note, if recovering from a PowerPC Mac (iMac G5, PowerMac, Mac Mini G4, iBook, Powerbook), this tip is important:

Otherwise use the recommended restore option with whatever backup software you used initially.

I have music that is playing within the iTunes program, but not on my iPod. How can I fix this?

I have music that is playing within the iTunes program, but not on my iPod. How can I fix this?

Skipping songs
The iPod seems to fail to play all of the occasional track that iTunes, and indeed other PMPs, are happy to play. There is probably some minor technical error in the internal structure of the file which is normally ignored by other playback software but causes the Classic to bail out.
If you use Windows you may like to try scanning the files with MP3Validator which can find & fix some internal MP3 errors.
Some users have also suggested that completely removing all id3 tags and then replacing the information can be a solution. This can be achieved in iTunes by selecting an affected track, right/control clicking and using the option Convert id3 tags> None. Since some files may mistakenly have more than one tag you may need to repeat this action. Once you have confirmed that no tag is present you can replace the tag information using Convert id3 tags > V2.3 (I believe it is recommended to avoid using V2.4).
Personally I have found files for which these solutions don't work. In this case the workaround is either to re-rip the tracks or get iTunes to re-encode the file, e.g.convert AAC to MP3 or vice versa and sync the newly encoded file to the iPod instead. Because transcoding will cause a loss of fidelity you should keep your original file so that if a future iPod firmware resolves this issue you can put your original files back onto the iPod.

My email does not have the correct email when i send to someone. It has my mothers. How can i fix this?

When I send an email to someone or reply to them it sends it under my mother's name. How can i fix this?

It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
          Mail ▹ Preferences...
The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
          Send new messages from:
choose
          Account of selected mailbox
Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
          Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
If there's only one server in the menu, select
          Edit SMTP Server List...
and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
          Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar.

My iPhone keeps freezing when I am texting, the keyboard will not come up. I have to turn it off or reset it to get keyboard to come up. How can I fix this?

In text or email, the keyboard will not come up. I have to reset phone or turn it off to get started again. How can i fix this issue?

Hello Jennings Castle,
It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes.
If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support

I have to reload a webpage to make a Flash Object in IE7 WinXP SP3. How can i fix this problem?

Hello:
When I want to navigate a webpage that contains a flash object, the Internet Explorer show the icon that the page contains an error, if I relod the page, the page now doesn't show the error and the Flash objects work well. This occurs recently, some weeks ago, I didn't have that problem. How can I fix this problem?
I'm using Win XP SP3, IE8 and Flash 14.0.0.145
I tried to uninstall the 14 version and installed the 13 version but the problem persists.

All new keyboards need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and above for full functionality.
Rather short-sighted of Apple perhaps, but that seems to be a trend these days.
I'm afraid the only fix is to upgrade to SL. Personaly, I'd take it back and get a refund and seek an older keyboard or a third-party one elsewhere.

I have a 15 inch Mac Book Pro and recently it has started to run louder than normal?

For about a month now my Macbook Pro has been running louder than usual, and its hot to the touch. As far as programs running, I'm usually just doing basic things such as using the internet or on Microsoft Word. Is there any reason why this might of just started occuring?

If you think the noise is caused by your fan, check out the following KB Article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411 Apple Portables: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

According to the user manual it states in part:
"Do not operate your MacBook Pro on a pillow or other soft material, as the material can block the airflow vents. Never place anything over the keyboard when operating your MacBook Pro. Never push objects into the ventilation openings."

"Do not place your MacBook Pro on your lap or other body surface for extended periods of time. Prolonged body contact can cause discomfort and potentially a burn."

Hi, I have a 13 inch mac book pro

brought in feb this year I want to install windows on it as it works better for my work requirements can any one tell me how much this will cost and what is needed and if anyone has done it? thanks Marcel

You need a Retial version of Windows 7. Home or Pro doesn't really matter unless it it matters to you personally.
And basically that's it. You use Boot Camp Assistant to partitioin the drive and then install Windows 7.
Or you could use one of the Virtual Machine software programs and install any version of Windows in a virtual machine. So for that you would need the VM software and a version of Windows.
EDIT:
Or you could go out and for a few dollars more buy a Real Windows computer with Windows 7 Preinstalled.

My Mac is not receiving emails, but my iPhone receives emails. How can I fix this?

I have a MacBook Pro Retina with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. I recently tried to send a large file through the iCloud email drop. The email stayed in my outbox for a day and made my email app extremely slow. The email never sent, so I deleted the email from my outbox and restarted the program. Now, my email is no longer receiving any emails. The same email account on my iPhone receives emails, but my Mac email program will not receive emails. I've restarted the program and the Mac, but nothing has resolved the problem. Any suggestions???

The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router. Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right? Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

HT1689 I have charges on my bank statement from Itunes that I did not purchase...how can I fix this???

You should contact Apple. If the purchase is not in your iTunes history should not be difficoult to get reimbursed.
For maximum safety I whould also change my passowrd.
