When I try to update an app in the App Store i get a message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (13)" I have tried many many times and keep getting the same message. How do I resolve?

First take the steps recommended in this support article. If there's no change, continue as follows.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

I am getting a time capsule error that the backup disk image can be accessed (error -1) - what does this mean?

When my time capsule tries to perform a back-up - i get the following error message.
The backup disk image "/volumes/data/myname's iMac.sparsebundle" could not be acccessed (error-1).
Is this something that can be resolved or is time capsule dead?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That error is caused by different reasons. Have a look at this Pondini's page > http://pondini.org/TM/C17.html

WIFI on my Time Capsule is off, and there's no way of getting it back on, nor of accessing my Time Capsule. How can I resolve?

WIFI on my Time Capsule is off, there's no way of getting it back on, I can't connect to my Time Capsule anymore, and the reset button doesn't work.

Thanks for the help, managed to get it back up and running. Some feedback:
* My TC was still under warranty, so I didn't want to open it up.
* I disconnected all cables from TC and Macbook, except the ethernet between both.
* Restarted TC, and WIFI went back up.
This leads me to thinking that what caused my troubles is:
* I had a USB hub connected to the TC, on which is a USB printer
* I had disconnected the USB printer from the hub to connect it directly to my Macbook (to make a scan of a document)
* When reconnecting the printer to the USB hub, the WIFI went down.
I think TC WIFI must be rather sensitive to USB connecting and disconnecting...
Thanks once again !

I keep getting a Time Machine error: Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder. Any advice?

I've tried:
restarting
shutting down, starting up
running Disk First Aid
running Disk First Aid in Safe Mode

Are you able to see the disk that Time Machine is backing up to in Disk Utility?

Suddenly, I can't get the plugin scan page to open. I keep getting "Plugin Finding Service Error", no matter how many times I try, or wait. When I first opened it yesterday, it was scanning, then it disappeared and I got the error message.

I have opened the plugin scanning page many times before, and have done some updating of plugins recently, but yesterday I couldn't bring up the scan, I keep getting "Plugin Finding Service Error", which says to "try again later". I believe what I updated most recently was Flash (I think). No matter how many times I push the "try again", or shut down Firefox and the webpage, I still get the error, and get nowhere!

This problem has been occurring for the past two months. I have updated Firefox to version 3.6.16...including Flash Player to version 10.2.153.1 as instructed. I am able to click on the "Add-ons" tab and "find updates" for "Get Add-ons" and "Extensions." However, the "find updates" tab is not working for "Plugins."
I followed one of your suggestions in your "troubleshooting plugins" topic (disabling the plugins...then enabling them after a check). That didn't work either. In fact, a message box would appear saying that Firefox has "disabled Flash" instead, which of course it did not, since I was able to confirm that the Flash Player update version was still intact. Unfortunately, it appears that updating the Flash Player through Firefox is not a standalone operation. Apparently it will not work properly unless a separate update is subsequently processed through Internet Explorer as well.

Time Capsule error 22 - My time capsule was working fine and didn't notice anything wrong with it until it stopped backing up about two weeks ago. I never changed anything like computer names or the Airport settings. All I get is the following:
The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data/Linda's Computer 1.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22).
I tried resetting the Time Capsule and connecting with an ethernet cable, although the Ariport Utility says everything is working fine through WiFi.

If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
They might be fixable but I do not know how.

I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?

If you migrated all the info from time machine to your new MBP. The TM will usually ask to connect to the old backups.. sorry I am not sure is this what you want to do.. Personally I think you start a fresh backup.
BTW Time Capsule does not do anything.. it is a dumb hard disk in a box.. it is TM that does everything.
Look at B5 and B6 here about connecting to your backup.

How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

An alternate, and simpler method for most users is to open any Finder window, then look for the Time Capsule icon under the Shared heading on the left side of the window.
When you click on the Time Capsule icon, a folder......named "Data", unless you have changed the name of the drive.....will appear to the right.
Double-click "Data" to mount the Time Capsule drive on the desktop, where you can now drag/drop or copy/paste data to the drive.
If the Time Capsule does not appear under the Shared heading when you open a Finder window......then you are likely using the Yosemite operating system on your Mac, and it will take some work to find it.
In that case, Niel's method might be the better way to go.

I keep getting the message "an error occurred downloading this content" does anyone know how to fix this?

I rented a movie but I can't seem to play it. I keep getting the message an error occurred downloading this content. Please try again later. It doesn't tell me how much later, but I've tried off and on for a week and I can't seem to resolve it.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This sometimes resolved by unplugging the Apple TV for a few moments and trying again, others have found restarting the router may help. Another reason that message can occur is when the download speed is extremely slow, have you tested your Internet download speed with speediest.net.

Hi again, when you clicked on Mountain Lion and Lion in the App Store you are telling the laptop to reinstall them both.
You may have allowed simutanious downloads checked at the bottom of the window, I don't know, but I expect Mountain Lion is downloading, so Lion is waiting for it to finish, so if you have Mountain Lion installed cancel both download's.
Cancell both downloads anyway.
Go to the apple logo , top left, click on it, then click on about this mac, a window will open telling you what's installed, Mountain Lion is OX 10 version 10.8.2 click on more info, to find out more, Lion will be OX10 version 10.7.4.
Only update were it say's check for updates, not download now.

Firefox has crashed numerous times on me tonight, and I keep getting an unresponsive script error (Script: chrome://devany/content/main.js:254) regardless of what website I'm on. NoScript will not block this script, and it's popping up with an increasing and alarming frequency. It's completely crippled my Firefox, and getting the a large enough window between unresponsive script warnings to get the Troubleshooting Information from Firefox took me a good 20 minutes. It's a very persistent script. I've already re-installed Firefox and restarted my computer, and scanned for viruses/malware. I'm on a Mac, if it makes a difference.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Tonight. I can't say what site I was on, though I first noticed it on DeviantArt and thought it was their new layout producing problems. ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_8; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7

yay, I had this same issue, and I too browsed deviantArt and also have got Deviantanywhere add-on installed. : D
I'm so glad that You've found a solution and shared it with us.
I was really getting worried that I'd done something to get malware installed on my 'puter. *Phew* !!
I'm going to disable DeviantAnywhere after I post this and hopefully this will be fixed for me too!
I actually hadn't kept my firefox up to date. but.. *shh...*
I updated it and after I did, it told me that there was a script running that was not responding. : )
yay for FireFox~

I just had this issue as well. A work around is to manually install all of the updates, one-by-one. This may take a while and be a pain, but after this it's freesailing for future updates. Not sure what the issue is but don't worry, that will fix it.

Instead of downloading one by one simply download the 10.6.7 'combo' update from Apples support site, it contains all previous updates in one package.

I can't access my Virgin Mail via OS Vista and Firefox 4. Keep getting a Google Apps error saying that the connection is not possible at this time. If I use IE I get no problem?

Hi. Thanks for the rapid response. However I tried it and still no joy. This is the full message:
Google Apps - Server error. We are unable to process your request at this time, please try again later.

How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

Thanks for digging out the facts.
You have a 1st Generation Time Capsule.
Your model can produce two bands....either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz....but not both simultaneously.
You would need a Generation 2, 3 or 4 Time Capsule for simultaneous dual band capability.

I keep getting a Time Capsule Error, how do I resolve?
