I loaded Maverick and went to empty trash - it emptied only partially -now it counts remaining files but then shuts down the trash?

hi I'm Barb
I loaded Maverick and went to empty trash - it emptied only partially - out of 658,000 or more files, now it counts remaining files 235,217 but then shuts down the trash? As it finishes the count window it closes - tried to empty only unlocked and or locked - does the same to both - it was emptying all files previously - help
didn't question the amount of over 600,000 files as I thought Maverick was updating my system from snow leopard - right? I missed something? HELP PLEASE
thanks Barb

Firefox 3.6.2 Mac OS 10.6 go to craisglist or other web pages click on email address link and 1000s of empty pages are spawned. Have to kill process to shut down firefox.

Hello Doug.
You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Recently upgraded G4 MDD now chimes and starts but then shuts down, no vide

Hello all and thank you in advance for checking my question. I hope this particular question has not been brought up in the forums recently and if so, I am sorry for the duplication.
I recently received a G4 MDD FW800 with a single CPU running at 1.0 GHz with a broken motherboard but was assured that all else was working. I replaced the motherboard with a another motherboard, this one running at 167 MHz bus (as opposed to 133 MHz) which was equipped with a dual 1.42 GHz CPU.
The mac starts up, the power light illuminates, and the chime sounds, but no video appears and the machine shuts itself off in about 20 or so seconds. The machine is somewhat old and I am not sure if the PRAM battery is dead or if the power supply can't handle the dual CPU load. So I am stuck with a dead mac and I am looking for any hints as to how to go about diagnosing the problem.
The presence of the chime at least suggests that the motherboard is getting power, and that the RAM and CPU are OK, but I am not sure. Again, any help would be most appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hey everybody!
Well, I found the problem, at least I think I have...
I replaced the battery with a new one and at the same time I removed the heat sink and the processor daughter card and verified placement. After these two interventions, the mac starts like normal, whew, I am glad that is over Thanks to Allan for his quick and insightful reply.

I have an i tunes a/c and wish to buy pages and numbers. when I press on the 'buy now' button, it turns green but then nothing happens, the page remains on the screen and they don't appear on my account What to do?

Problems buying 'pages and numbers, I have an itunes a/c and have been trying to buy pages and numbers for 2 weeks now. When I press the green button to 'Buy now' nothing happens, the page remains on the screen. If I open my account, i haven't purchased anything
Has any-one experienced this problem
Thanks

Just to clarify...
Did you know that by purchasing it in iTunes, you are purchasing the iOS version of Pages and Numbers? If you wanted the Mac version, it should be downloaded from the Mac App Store.
If you DID want to download a copy for an iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, then try purchasing these apps on one of those devices rather than iTunes and see if it works.

Games start to load but then shut down

I've tried restoring my ipod too, but all my games (Zombie Farm, Tap Zoo, ect.) still crash before they can open. Is this something I can fix?

Try a reset: Push and hold the Sleep/On/Off button and the Home button for approximately 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo reappears. Release the buttons. No content will be affected.

Clicking on Firefox causes my computer to flash a blue screen with some info on it (too quickly to read!) then shuts down the computer and reboots. What causes this?

Reset the PRAM
Reinstall the operating system from the dvd (you will not loose your data)

I cannot quit mail, the icon stays on and if I try to shut down the computer, the window appears and tell me to quit mail first and then shut down the computer. How do I get to quit the mail?

Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu and shut Mail down from there.

TS3408 why will some websites which loaded fine before now not load - when other favourites load fine, and new searches are fine? This only affects 2 websites, both of which were bookmarked. I have removed them as bookmarks and this makes no difference.

From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

1st, you will not be able to activate your PPro1.5 on ANY new computer, see next link for the special version you MUST use
CS2 (and earlier) Activation Server http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l
2nd, you already mentioned Virtual XP, so if a direct install doesn't work, that would be the way to go... or, to just do what SHOULD work from the start, just do Virtual XP

Have you tried to reset it? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds and see if you can get it to reboot.

Try force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

HT1339 my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

Your question(s) is/are a little hard to understand. So your husband has an iPod as well as a netbook and he wants to be able to sync iPod with this netbook is that correct? If so, he'll need to first download and install iTunes assuming the netbook is running some version of Windows such as 7, Vista, or XP.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
As for importing or ripping music, he'll have to either use an external CD/DVD drive that is attached via USB or rip the songs to another PC you have with a built in CD/DVD drive. Once you have imported them to the other computer, you can transfer the songs to an external hard drive or to his iTunes library via Home Sharing.
If this isn't quite what you were looking for, please clarify.

I have recently upgraded my mac and ipad to IOS7 and find that Safari will not load onto my iPad. It just shuts down the app. Any ideas? I have been onto Mac who took me through a very long iPad robot, but the problem is still the same! Help appreciated

Do you mean that you did a soft-reset ?
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
If that doesn't fix it then try closing Safari via the iPad's multitaskingbar and see if it works when you re-open it :double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Safari app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
After trying the above you could also do a soft-reset (even if this is what you've already done it might be worth trying after clearing Safari's cache and closing the app via the taskbar) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I loaded Maverick and went to empty trash - it emptied only partially -now it counts remaining files but then shuts down the trash?
