Barry: my mac is telling me to upgrade before i can use this software from thesafemac...but i can not without a credit card. Is there a free upgrade for 10.6 without going thru apple store?
Since you're using 10.6, you can't use AdwareMedic, unfortunately. However, you could use the manual removal instructions in my Adware Removal Guide instead. They should help you find everything that AdwareMedic would.
I don't know that I would advise trying to upgrade from 10.6 all the way to 10.10 just to run AdwareMedic.

Hi,
Which website your are using to update the Adobe Flash player? No Adobe website ever ask for any id and password to update the flash player.
If you are using MAC machine and its the password prompt while installing update that you are talking about then please follow What userid & password do I need to install Flash Player?

Keep getting "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
I try to download some items. I keep getting "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
I was logged in to Live, but somehow it is getting lost. I have tried both Chrome and IE. Is there something wrong at MS or with my account? Also, it took me 15 minutes to find anywhere to submit a problem or question...very frustrating.
It kept sending me to self help where none of the options were relevant.

I keep getting a message "safari cannot open page [page name with header information] because you are not connected to the internet. Then I check CNN for a time stamp, and I am connected to the internet. I have reset everything suggested in other posts, ensured any other device that could be hogging bandwidth is off, the router is reset, the iPad is reset. The other devices are not having this problem, and it happens on both places I use the iPad, the university library, (getting a second degree after a change in a long time career and at home. Any insight into this issue would be appreciated.
Saing yu tried everthing provides little information to us. We do not know what you tied.
Have you tried:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Powering off and then back on your router- Resetting network setting: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

There are several different methods. Try one. If it doesn't work,
then try the next one. Don't try to do everything at once.
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID

Note: you may need to continue entering false answers to the questions until you trigger the response needed to start making changes. It will take six or nine retries.
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
3. Then choose iTunes Store;
4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
like your security/challenge questions reset;
8. Click Send/Continue.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
"done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends! -
I bought an IPAD for my mom and she is unable to make her ID on Itunes just because he doesn't have a credit card?? any help will be highly apprecaited ...she is old and she will probably use skype or will do some browsing....
You can create a new account without a credit card.
Refer to article here:
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
However, you cannot change your exisiting account into a "NONE" payment account -
I created an apple id today and i can't use it on my iphone because reviewing my id in iphone, it asks me to give my credit card info which i don't have because i'm just 16 and don't have a credit card and my dad won't let me use his'
You have to create an Apple ID a specific way to use it without a credit card. The one you have created now, cannot be changed to not have a credit card. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534

ok so i think there is a virus on my laptop bc it has been getting A LOT of pop up websites and videos ads. I just got the laptop literally a week ago and this never happen till today. I believe i downloaded the virus by accident thinking it was a java update bc since then my laptop hasn't been the same. Also, i would like to mention that "java video update" popped up while my cousin was trying to watch a movie on put locker. is there a virus? the websites always relate to mac products like for instance when i clicked on the question to type a new safari page popped up called "macmail" and they are mostly "clean your mac" websites. I trashed the downloads and then emptied my trash but I'm still getting the pop ups.
This is not caused by a virus. This is adware.

Having problem with i Pad sync getting pop up message as below. The i Pad cannot be synced because there is not enough space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 10.03 GB required). There is enough space be it in PC or on i Pad. Why and What can be done to resolve, please advice appreciate. Thanks
It generally means - just using random numbers for examples - the iTunes on your computer holds 45 gig of content, you have a 16 gig iPad which has 13 gig of free space and the content just won't fit.
Easy solutions. go into iTunes and 'manually manage' your content. I believe this is in the main summary tab for your device (connect your device, click on the icon in iTunes to access controls for your iPad
You may also need to choose to manually control content in both the music and movie tabs.
Apple - Support - Manuals
the manual will have more specific info for syncing and controlling content -
Why am I getting small incremental charges from Adobe XI .. I dont wish to keep changing the billing# of 14.99 a month, I would just like to understand the other charges on my account of the same?
security questions was the least of my issues, hence, it did not make my gripes summary. the account owner authorized the order over the phone easily, but somehow some way the order still failed to go through. only one agent, the last agent, stayed on the line while the ToSA was being done 1. to check that she was transferring me to the correct ToSA, 2. to check that the ToSA was successfully completed, and 3. so she could me the confirmation numbers i needed to track it.
i had difficulties with completing the ToSA, simple required task for an authorized purchase, not once, but TWICE. the ToSA did not go through on the order on june 3rd for whatever reason. and when i was transferred to the wrong ToSA line in my own attempt to authorize a purchase on june 5th, i can see this error being replicated numerous times limiting the efficacy of an automated system when agents don't stay on the line to confirm that the final step goes through. i even tried getting the confirmation number on june 3rd, but when i called, the verizon system is conveniently down rendering any form of follow up useless. as a consequence, the lack of ability to have a single agent managing the case turns into a telephone game through the documented notes with agents unaware of what has been done previously and the reasons for managing a case a certain way.
another huge frustration i didn't highlight in my gripes is that none of this can be resolved in person at a verizon store. fortunately for those who live next to a corporate verizon building, it is easy. for the rest of us, it isn't quite so. -
After Effects not working. It hangs before getting to the interface and I can't upgrade neither!
I juust bought adobe after effects for the creative cloud. I can't get it to work. I installed the Afx through the app manager and launch it and didn't work. It freezes. Then I though it was because I had a previous version trial installed in my computer. The Cs 5.5. I downloaded the Adobe cleaning software and cleaned the HD. Then I reinstalled everything and now stills not working and won't patch neither. What should I do?
Nobody can tell you anything without system information. The most common issues why the app won't launch are GPU issues or DynamicLink problems, but again, we really can't know without more details. Provide system specs and the crash info and while there, also comb the articles on my site. It is, after all, the After effects error Code Database...

Virus for macbook pro warning. ran software and didn't detect anything buy i keep getting pop ups
i had a virus warning for my macbook pro. ran anti virus software but nothing was detected. however i keep getting pop ups.

You Mac does not have any viruses as there are no viruses for MacOSX. What you have a malware scam. Did you download MacDefender, or MacProtector? To get rid of them, open activity monitor and look for the process MacDefender, or MacProtector, double click the process and force quit. Go to system preferences to accounts, login items and remove MacDefender, or MacProtector by highlighting it and hitting the minus sign. Go to your applications folder and drag MacDefender or MacProtector to the trash. Open finder and do a search for Macdefender or MacProtector trash any related files. Do the same with a Spotlight search, it is the little magnyfing glass far top right in the menubar. Lastly, go open finder, select your user folder, go to library then loo in aoplication support and remove MacDefender or Mac Protector from there, close that folder then go to preferences and remove any preference file for MacDefender or MacProtector. Hope this helps.

I keep getting pop ups that say my subscription has expired? I have paid and have credit because this has happened before and i paid 3 times. Can I just buy a download instead of paying a monthly subscription?
We often find this happens when the wrong software gets run (so the subscription doesn't apply).
So,to start with what exactly is your subscription for - please check your account details and confirming email?
