I install Software but after reboot-not showing up

The standalone Sound Blaster XFi driver is the actual program called "Sound Blaster XFi" right?
Okay heres the situation. I was having Video Card issues, I just replaced my Video card but I had to take out my Sound Card to hook it up.
Later on I noticed my sound was a bit off so when I used the speaker test; they werent coming out of the right speakers, so I mess around with the hook ups but it still wasnt working.
I take out the Sound Card and re seat it, but then Windows Vista wasnt even detecting my sound card; grrrr at that point I noticed my "Volume Panel" icon isnt located near my clock anymore; so I decided to go to Add/Remove programs and remove Sound Blaster XFi and re install it so I can get that icon back.
Well after I install the XFi drivers, windows reboots, and my sound is good; they are coming from the right speakers but my icon near taskbar isnt.
And when I go to Add/Remove Sound Blaster XFi isnt listed.
I re installed it, rebooted and it still isnt showing up.
As I'm writing this. I'm removing everything, everything related to Creative, everything related to Sound Blaster and this time I will just insert my CD that came with the card, install everything that way, then install the correct drivers and software.
I'm curious though, isnt the XFi driver the application that installs that Volume Panel Icon near the clock? Isnt the XFi driver application the one that installs a program called "Sound Blaster XFi"? cause after 2 installs it isnt showing up at all
Thanks

Long and tedious but phew; its finally done.
Everything is installed that I want. Sound is working properly
As I said; I removed everything Creative and everything Sound Blaster (even edited Registry), inserted CD that came with Card; installed everything, then re installed the current drivers/applications

Does it show up in iTunes?

HT1947 Fun bridge keeps hanging up. I reinstall and then it works until yesterday. It shows I installed it but it is not showing up. When I go to where I can reinstall it, it will not let me because it says I have already installed it on this device.

Can someone please help? I have has issues with an ap that I have to pay ongoing to use and, last time, it was about $100, for 1000 deals of bridge. It hangs up often, for want of a better description. What I have done in the past is uninstall and the reinstall it. Yesterday I did this but it no longer shows on my screen. When I go back to try to install it, I am "told" it has already been installed but it is not here. I am not a newbie. I have also sent them a message, from two places reserved for that by them and, both times, I get an error. Their development site is in French so that does not help me.
I see nowhere on my IPAD2 settings where I can do anything such as delete an existing ap. Apple wants me to pay them $29 for one-time help and I do not think this is fair for something I am paying for that is not working. I have paid over $200 total for this ap and it's continuing usage. The ap is free but to really use it, you have to pay ongoing charges.
Thank you in advance for help,

You are not using iPhoto properly and are in danger of losing your photos
iPhoto is a SQP database application and there are NO user servicable parts in the database (by default the iPhoto library) It is extremely important that you NEVER make any changes of any sort to the content (or structure) of the iPhoto library
The only safe (and suppoprted) way to resize photo is to select them and export using the various esize options in teh export dialogue and use those resized photos - this is a bathc process and does not involve Preview nor does it involve seperate processing for each photo

Installed ILife but iMovie does not show ANYWHERE

I cannot find iMovie anywhere after installing iLife. I've heard many dissapointing things about iMovie 08, but I had no problem with the older version of iMovie. Any suggestions?

If you mean you installed iLife '08 over iLife '06, look for a folder named "iMovie (previous version)" in your main "Applications" folder.

I am installing snow leopard on a new drive unformatted but it does not show the disk to install it on.? do i need to format first with one partition?

I have installed a new drive on my mac book and more ram but the snow leopard install asks which to install the system on but then does not show the drive.
do I have to partition it and name it first. -- if so just one partition?

Do this:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation.

I have installed Adobe Flash but firefox does not show as plugin

I have downloaded the most recent versions of Firefox (30.0) and Adobe Flash Player. The Adobe website tells me my flash player is installed and current but Firefox does not show it as a plug in and a site that requires flash player (google finance) to view charts does not work. The place for the chart remains blank after telling me it has loaded.
Any thoughts?

When a page is using a plugin, usually an icon similar to a piece of Lego appears in the address bar. You can click the logo to check that Flash is allowed to run on the page, or approve it to run if it isn't.
I randomly picked a stock and enlarged the chart and got the following URL. Any luck with this one: http://www.google.com/finance?chdnp=1&chdd=1&chds=1&chdv=1&chvs=maximized&chdeh=0&chfdeh=0&chdet=1405540800000&chddm=1173&chls=IntervalBasedLine&q=NASDAQ%3AAAPL&ntsp=0&fct=big&ei=YJzGU_iiEZSziALE4oCYCg
Does it matter whether you view it in a regular tab or in a private window? To view in a private window, right-click the link > Open Link in New Private Window.

After iOS7 install my iCal entries do not show "created by or edited by". Is there a fix?

After iOS7 install my iCal entries do not show "created by or edited by" also in Twitter I can't see number of retweets or favorites, it's become invisible. Any fixes?

Well seeing as I'm running Lion on 2 GB of RAM, I can't see how upgrading the RAM will make that much of a difference. If you are seeing launch times in minutes, it probably indicates your cache got corrupted by some third party cache cleaning software. To see if some corruption can be fixed, first backup your data:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
Then boot in safe mode, holding the shift key. If issues persist in safe mode, run the hardware test that came with your Mac.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
And if that is unrevealing, and booting into safe mode doesn't solve anything, and you are backed up, try repairing the directory by:
1. Booting into the restore partition with command-R.
2. Selecting the installer's Utilities menu.
3. Selecting Disk Utility
4. Selecting First Aid
5. Selecting the boot partition.
6. Click on repair disk (not repair permissions)
Do NOT proceed with any install itself. Just quit the install program
If the disk is not able to be repaired, purchase Alsoft Disk Warrior, and boot of that to repair the directory.
If it is able to be repaired, and the machine is still slow, I think you may have run into some RAM that is bad, and need to replace it, not add to it.
If Disk Warrior can't repair the hard disk, replace the hard disk itself.

You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.

Of course it always works, what are you talking about.
I appreciate that re-downloading is only available in the US and then only with certain content. However content that cannot be re-downloaded is not offered for purchase on the Apple TV.

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

I have a G4 Quicksilver running 10.5.8. Because the oS is on a small hard drive I coied the folders from that HD to a much larger drive via an external USB drive enclosure. I then installed the larger drive as an internal in the G4, but it does not show

I have a G4 Quicksilver running 10.5.8. The OS is on a small HD with no room for adding any info or applications, so I have copied the OS to a much larger HD in an external USB enclosure. I dragged each folder from the small drive to the larger drive. I can access the applications when the large drive is set as an external drive, but when I installed it internally it would not show up on the Start Up Disc utility and I can not boot from it. Did I do something wrong copying the OS? Can anyone tell me how to boot from the larger drive? Thanks

If your machine doesn't support large drives natively (Quicksilver 2002 and later) then doing as you are doing may lead to disaster.
If files are placed on a large drive and those files extend beyond the 128 GB limit of the controller, the first time the drive (internally) accesses data beyond the 128 GB region, the machine will crash and data loss a likely result.

Hi Marcel1no,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that it can be frustrating when an application downloaded from the App Store is not behaving as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend using the attached article for information on troubleshooting apps downloaded from the App Store.

The QT X v10.1 app installs in your "Applications folder and QT 7 v7.6.6 (whether keyed for "Pro" use or not) is installed in the "Applications/Utilities" folder. It is recommended you keep them in these locations so they will continue to update correctly/automatically.
