I installed Canon software on my macpro laptop and it takes forever to startup and shut down

Hello.  I recently got a Canon Rebel T3 and in order to download photos to my macbook pro I had to install their software.  Well, after installing it, it takes VERY long to shut down and start up my laptop.  Can someone help?  I already deleted the software off the laptop, but that hasn't seem to fix the issue.

"... I already deleted the software off the laptop, but that hasn't seem to fix the issue."
I doubt that the software was the issue. So why not tell us what model MBP you have and how much free space is on the hard drive. When was the last time you booted to the OS installer disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Utility? BTW, you may not need their software to download pictures to your Mac. Launch iPhoto and from the menu: iPhoto>Preferences>General: Connecting Camera Opens.....

  • July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command

    July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command. I cannot read my mail (aol) or access my bookmarks all for work.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.

  • Can't install any software on my T61p laptop?

    I have an issue with installing any software programs to my Lenovo Laptop. I have checked the CD ROM - diagnostics etc. The tests passed with flying colors. The music CD works great. I am using Windows XP.
    I am sure that there is nothing wrong with a CD ROM because when I restore the system from the backup I did back in 3/19/2008 - it records any software that I like to install. I am using all the original installation CD's.
     I don't want to keep it in the that state from 3/19/2008 because I would loose all my files plus I had a wireless Netgear installed which it was painful to install in a first place. I like to keep the setting I currently have and files but I NEED THIS CD ROM TO WORK.
    I have tried to recover software from the 3/19/2008 date but they don't work either. Besides what is the point of not having not operational CD/RAM. I read online that sometimes VIRUS can reset the settings for installing software, but how this is possible. Why the Windows XP allows to switch such important settings.
    I also checked the properties of CD/ROM for enable, disable and they set as enable. What is stopping recording on this laptop in the state I am in now. I have a virus software - no viruses either.
    I have been dealing with this for 3 weeks now and I am out of ideas. I have called Lenovo and they said that they only deal with hardware issues. I have this computer less then 7 months and I have 2 year assistance from Lenovo.
    I would appreciate if maybe some Lenovo Technical Rep would read this note so he/she can offer some ideas to deal with this issue. I do not want to restore this computer to factory settings or 3/19/2008 (then I am sure the CD/ROM would work)
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi - thanks for trying to help me.
    1. I have received the computer on 3/05/2008. I have installed Adobe Photoshop, Picture Studio, Outlook Express, MC Word, Power Point, Excel, Business Cards creator, Symantec Antivirus and bunch of other programs that I had original CD's. At the time I had DSL- Cable internet Connection. I also, did all the Windows Updates and Lenovo Updates. I had Windows XP installed already as operating system by Lenovo.
    2. On 3/19/2008 I did a backups so the info with all the programs working properly were stored in computer's memory on drive C.
    3. On 10/10/2008 I have installed a Wireless Netgear with a help of Netgear support team. I have turned all the wireless radio's on, setup a network etc. I did not do any backup at the time.
    4. On 11/10/2008 the Symantec Antivirus cought a virus - Trojan Horse and stored in a Quarantine. Later on that day I wanted to open Adobe Photoshop to cut some pictures and graphics and the program was "FREEZING". I have tried to open Business Card Creator program and it was FREEZING as well.
    I did a full system virus scan to make sure there is no viruses left. It was showing that one stored in quarantine. I also did a spyware scan LavaSoft - Advare and Seach and Destroy spyware. Some was removed. The programs were still freezing. The internet worked OK plus Outlook Express. I tried to figured out what to do for a few days.
    5. 11/14/08 - I have removed the Adobe Photoshop and Business Card Reader from Add/Remove programs feature. Then I have restarted a computer. I figured since I have original CD's so I will reinstall them. I have placed a CD in CD/ROM and I hear the reading but when I hit the install the CD was just spinning. It refuses to record anything. I click next/install so I can place registration numbers and I see no screen. Same with other CD. It freezes.
    Well, then I tough that maybe the CD is damaged, so I have put it in another desktop computer that I have and it installs it super - no problems. Same as other program.
    6. Then I tried to play a music on the Lenovo laptop- well, it works OK.
    7. Then I decided to use ThinkVantage feature and see if any error that I might have on Windows or maybe CD drive will be shown on diagnostics. It took a while while a detail process was completed and no error's found. I also did a VIRUS Scan that is offered on ThinkVantage on Lenovo (no virus found). Then I did a system backup 11/14/2008 -  figured just in case.
    8. Well, then I thought I try again with any other installation CD - just any that might work and install something for a try on a laptop and nothing. It spins and no installation boxes, no features (most of the time it freezes the laptop).
    9. Next, I tried to restore only a program from a previous backup from 3/19/2008. I have chosen Adobe Photoshop that worked great on 3/19/2008. Nothing - does not work at all.
    10. Next on 12/05/2008 - I did a full system restore to 3/19/2008. I figured that I had nothing important on laptop that I need plus maybe I can reinstall a Wireless Netgear with a help of Netgear CD and instruction booklet. Plus it would give me a chance to test a CD/ROM if it works.
    11. Surprise! After restoration of the Windows XP to a state from 3/19/2008 I have noticed that Adobe Photoshop is on it and it works great. Does not freezes and works great. Then I have installed a few new programs that I never needed in a first place on that laptop but I figured I need to test them if they install anyway. They install with a ease. Next, I have deleted Adobe Photoshop from Add/Remove feature of Windows XP and restarted a computer. Well, Surprise again! The CD installs Adobe Photoshop with an ease - no problems. Boxes for registration copy come on. Completes the process - fully installed. I have shut down and restarted a computer to be sure that it works - open's up, loads and I can use it on any picture.
    12. 12/05/2008 - I tried to reinstall my wireless internet connection. (I could connect to DSL internet with a cable). I placed a CD follow the prompts. I kept the same names on the network I had before since I figured it is less confusion. Well, it was a pain. It was late then anyway plus I know that Netgear gives you 3 months of any support for free once you buy a product and after that you have to pay per accident.
    13. 12/07/2008 - I was so tired with trying to work that Netgear so I have restored the system to 11/14/2008 state from my C: backup. I was curious that maybe I can look at some network features and see what I have been doing wrong.
    14. 12/07/2008 - I came back to the same state. Internet works, Outlook Express works but Adobe Photoshop is gone since I deleted it on 11/14/2008. I think if it was on it it would freezes anyway. Again, I try to install a CD - any CD and nothing.
    Sorry that this is a bit confusing but I tough that at least I can show a process what I exactly did. My question is - is there any feature on Windows XP that prevents from installing a software? Did maybe the virus caused to block it?
    I have also tried to look under Drive DVD/CD-RW /Properties to see if I have enabled or disabled any recording features. It says the device is working properly.
    I have checked a C: Drive properties to see if anything is checked disabled - nothing that I could not find .
    Honestly, this is a first time that I could not figured out what is wrong. I am not so technical in terms of networks but I use computers a lot and I can set basic features and use many graphic programs.
    If anyone can offer me some suggestions I really appreciate. If I can fix that I would have to restore to 3/19/2008 because the CD/ROM was installing then and maybe call Wireless Netgear people so they can walk me through again and pay them the fee.
    Thanks.

  • After installing HP software for new printer laptop shuts down several times a day

    I had an older HP Photosmart printer and it lost it's wireless connection often.  I decided to get a new printer and purchase an HP Officemax 8600 printer and immediately my laptop started shutting down without notice.  It would leave me a notice that my computer had shut down and another screen showing all of the code and asking me if I wanted to send the error to Apple.  I am sure they have now received dozens or hundreds of these notices and of course I still have not responded.   I have not seen a fix.  Really poor response from a company that I thought had a committment to their customers.  Though wrong.

    Some of the HP software creates a lot of network traffic.  It can overwhelm some routers.  What kind of router and ISP do you use?
    Download 13 from here but do not subscribe to the Customer Participation Program (it creates a lot of traffic).

  • Installed AND Registrated LR 2 years ago. Shut down my Laptop. Next time I wanted to use LR it wouldn't start --- "Registration required"

    Yesterday I shut down my Laptop.
    Today I started it and wanted to use LR but it said "registration required" but I intalled AND registrated LR 2 years ago. Since then I never formated the Laptop. It came all of a sudden.
    I still have my Key and everything but I'm affraid that if I use it a 2nd time on the same computer, I will not be able to use it on a 2nd one
    How could that problem be fixed?
    As I said, it was already registrated for 2 years on that exact same Laptop and there was no formatation what so ever
    Thanks in advance

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

  • Cannot install trial of Captivate 8 due to a previous bad download which won't shut down

    Hi, I have tried to shut down a previous bad download of Captivate 8 on my Mac but the installer still will not let me proceed even though I have quit the program and closed in Applications / Activity Monitor. In actiity monitor I select Quit for the Captivate program but it will not quit. What can I do. I am downloading a trial of captivate 8

    Sea Swimmer you may want to try rebooting your computer and then try the installation again.  If you are being prompted to close Captivate files it is likely you have downloaded the installation files and are attempting to install the software.  By default the installation files are saved to the download folder for your User account.
    If you continue to face difficulties with the download process please see Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant.

  • Lost admin rights - install Canon software

    I've been trying to install a Canon Digital Solutions disc, and keep receiving the same error - I don't have the necessary access privileges, please log out and log in as an administrator.
    The account that I am using has full admin rights, and I have not made any changes to the computer since purchasing it, except for uploading software updates. The computer already came with v10 of the Mac OS, which appears to be a cause of a lot of the faults that I can find.
    Can anyone help, I'm new to Mac's and don't want to start messing around with the back end if this can be helped. Of course, to make it better, I am not in my home country, and therefore don't have access any of my software discs for a couple of weeks.

    All three show that I do have admin rights, in terms that I have the short name, then underneath have 'Admin' in the line underneath.
    I have another account that is called Guest, which has the text 'Login, Sharing' so I assume that this is the access for each account. My apologies, all Mac terminologies are new to me.
    I can 'print screen' (to use a windows terminology) if you can inform me of how this function works on a MacBook.

  • Having trouble downloading Mavrick OS. Takes forever, like weeks, and tries to install before the download is finished.

    OS will download about 3/4 of the way and then automatically try to download. When this happens I get an error message and loose my partial download.

    Are you aware of any problem with a previous purchase ? If not then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they know why you are getting that message :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If terms of the card not being accepted, if it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it is a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support as above.
