I'm a frustrated newbie trying to download FF 8.0 on my Mac. I keep getting an error message saying an unknown error occurred and to save to a disk. Does anyone have a quick fix? Thanks!

It also tells me that a download file could not be opened. It goes through all the download steps and I get the message at the very end.

You're the coolest, thanks!

    I am trying to hard sync my i phone to my MAC before I purchase a new phone. My MAC however has a pop up that says I already have 5 computers associated with this ID. So I went into i tunes store and had a list of 4 items, I deauthorized 2, my i pod & i pad, which left 2 items on the list. However I am still getting the same pop up saying I have 5 devices. Any ideas how to correct this?

    Go to one of the other computers and use the Deauthorize Computer function. If you don't have physical or network access to any of them, use the Deauthorize All command documented in the article you asked this question from, and if that's not an option, the link to contact the iTunes Store staff at the bottom of it.

  • I keep getting a redirect on Google results. I am redirected to goooogle.osa.pl. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello all,
    When I type a search into Google and hit enter, I get to a page that looks like results from Google. When I click on one of the results, I am redirected to a page that has goooogle.osa.pl as the URL. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

  • Does anyone have a quick way to have iTunes on my ipad list which songs are actually downloaded to the device ?

    Does anyone have a quick way to have iTunes on my ipad list which songs are actually downloaded to the device ?

    If you want to import movies into iTunes you can use that to stream & convert to Apple TV compatible formats as Rudegar suggested.
    Another option is to install a media streaming application like Plex or Kodi on a PC/ Mac.
    https://plex.tv/
    http://kodi.tv
    Those should be able to stream to the Amazon Fire stick. They also can re-encode video 'on the fly'. So if you format is not supported the computer converts it & the device on the TV gets a format that does work (not including DRM protected files) - obviously this requires a computer with enough power to convert, but many recent computers have enough power to do that. There is setup involved, but these servers are a good once configured.
    Roku has a Plex app that also works well on the TV.
    The Apple TV does not work well with these apps, it expects you to use iTunes.

  • My brand new iMac loses its WiFi connection when it goes to sleep, does anyone have a proven fix?.

    I have a MacBook that is about 4 years old and a brand new iMac both are running the most up to date version of Lion.  My old MacBook has no issues; however, my iMac loses its WiFi connection every time it goes to sleep.  There are some discussions about this already out there but does anyone have a proven fix.  This is very frustrating.

    I was having the same problem for a long time.  I tried everything but nothing seemed to make it stay connected.  It was very frustrating.  I just got a new Airport Extreme.....bang!.....all better.  Problem gone. 

  • My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections.  I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it.  Does anyone have any ideas??

    My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections.  I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it.  Does anyone have any ideas?? 

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    put the phone in DFU mode (do a search for how to do this) and restore to the latest firmware. you may have to download the firmware from apple and when selecting restore or update in itunes press the shift key and select the firmware.
    Hope this helps

    I have a Mac Book Pro with OS X 10.6.8

    If your profile is correct you are using 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.   The latest iTunes version for that OS is 11.3.1    If your profile is wrong and you have 10.9.5 Mavericks, then the iTunes version is 11.4.    You cannot use Mavericks versions on Snow Leopard.

    It is typically not advisable to use "delete from array" in a tight loop. The constant memory reallocations due to array resizing are probably inefficient.

    Try closing iTunes and reset your iPad. After the iPad starts up, try the download again.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the iTunes app then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
