I May Have Delelted Something I Shouldn't Have

Uh oh...heh.
What does it mean if my inserts have slash marks through them? It still has the effect names, but there are slashes through them and I'm getting no audio.
I just upgraded to LE 8 today, but in the process, I deleted everything that had to do with Logic (aside from my song files) and re-installed LE 7, then upgraded to LE 8. I'm wondering if during my mass deletion, I might have done something to make this happen. But then again, I re-installed everything, so it doesn't seem like there should be an issue.
Sorry if this post seems a little haphazard. But does anyone know why there are slash marks through the presets, or why I am getting no audio? Thanks a lot in advance!

Nevermind, I figured it out.

Keyboard non-functioning - may have deleted something essential!

Help! My keyboard has stopped working. Inexplicably, the mouse is fine, but nothing comes up when I type. I suspect that I may have deleted something essential.
I was ruthlessly deleting things off my hard drive in an attempt to make iMovie and iDVD work properly - getting rid of unused printer drivers, etc. - and I'm afraid I might have deleted something I shouldn't have. Everything worked fine until I tried to type a title into iDVD, at which point the program promptly shut down. I double-clicked the Keyboard and Mouse control panel, and the system folder promptly closed (I could open the other control panels without issue). I tried to do a restart in safe mode, and the shift key seemed to work to get that going, but I couldn't type in my password in the log-in screen!
I assume I will have to reinstall system software (which will do away with all that nice free space I created), but how do I do that when the CD-eject button is on the keyboard and I can't type my password?
I will appreciate any help!!
eMac Mac OS X (10.4.1) 7.01 gig free hard disk space

hi there-
if the shift key seemed to work to get into safe mode, but wouldn't work once logged in, the keyboard should work to boot to the install disk. simply put in the install disk number one (make sure it is for the current operating system) and hold down the c during startup. do disk repair beforehand, and make sure it fixes all errors, before attempting to reinstall. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214 once you proceed in the installer, make sure you select the macintosh hd as the destination, then choose archive and install, preserving users and network settings. complete instructions are in this article. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120 good luck to you.

Sorry to hear that the Bluetooth data/profiles may have been deleted from your phone. Accidents happen!
oznaw, to be honest, I believe you will need to perform a master reset in order to recover the missing Bluetooth data, as there is nothing really available in the Play Store that just updates the Bluetooth profiles/data. Let us know if you have any additional questions, or if you found an alternative. Thank you oznaw.

I am using Firefox Version 17. Previous versions had a triangle on the right end of the toolbar that would show a list of tabs open on the window. I no longer see it.
It was described in the "Help" instructions as follows:

Look and see if there is a lock icon in the upper right corner of the iPad screen. If the icon is there, that indicates that you locked the screen orientation.
There are wo ways to unlock the screen - depending on how you have the settings configured on your iPad.
Check the side switch above the volume rocker on the side of the IPad. Flip the switch. If the lock icon goes away, the screen is unlocked and you had the iPad set to use the side switch for screen orientation.
The other place to look is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and swipe to the right at the bottom of the screen. Look all the way to the left. If there is a lock icon there, tap that to unlock the screen. Then tap the screen above the task bar to get back to the home screen.
IF ... There was no lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen, reboot the iPad and see if that unlocks the orientation.
Reboot 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 - let go of the buttons.
The article that Alan referenced above, explains how to use the side switch as the screen lock - or the way to mute system sounds. It is well worth a look.

I don't know if this is a Firefox problem so I ask, When printing how come it always prints so small I nearly need a magnifying glass? Is this caused by something else I may have set incorrectly? help please, from a very satisfied Firefox user

This only happens when I'm in my browser. Ex. when I'm on a site and I decide I like what I see and want to print it text that is, my printer always prints tiny. When I'm in Microsoft Word for ex. I print it and it looks like what I expect. So I don't know if somehow my printer got set to print tiny when on the web. If you can help me I would be most appreciative. Thanks again for your response.

Uninstalling may have messed something up.....

I downloaded and installed the Trial Version, decided I
didn't like it, so I uninstalled it. Ever since a website called
MyPlash, which I believe uses some kind of ActiveX Control or
something no longer works (IT'S ONE WHERE YOU NEED TO CLICK ON THE
PAGE BEFORE YOU CAN SEARCH, CLICK ON LINKS, ECT.). It worked fine
ever since I uninstalled Flash CS3 Professional. What could be
causing this, and what can I do to fix it?

The command you appear to have run will erase visible files, it's possible the used space is OS files that are hidden by default. You may have a better idea if the data size is correct, it's possible the data is there I guess. How long did the 'rm' take to complete?
Do you have another Mac around? You can use target disk mode with another Mac & the appropriate Firewire or Thunderbolt cables.
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
This will show the Mac as a disk on the other Mac - so you can copy off all the data, then erase and reinstall the broken one.
Another option you have is to use another disk to create a bootable 10.9 system. This could be an external disk or even a USB memory stick (these can be too slow, so make sure you have a fast one or put up with 2 minutes periods between mouse clicks!). You can install 10.9 onto the external disk (from recovery mode), boot that & then clone the internal to another disk.
You can also use Disk Utility in Recovery mode to 'clone a disk'. So you can consider doing that onto an external disk.
As you can see the basic idea is to get a full copy of the internal disk (or what is left of it) so you can replace the system.
It is possible to see what files are on disk within single user mode (assuming that works) however I don't want to encourage that since it is why you are here!

The most likely cause is a problem with Java on your system - older and/or messed up Java installations seems to cause this issue sometimes.
To fix:
Step 1: Try installing latest Java version. Check your Firefox/system browser plugins from this page, and install latest version: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Mozilla Plugin Check Page] (also works for most other browsers)
If latest Java (currently "Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U20 - Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_20 for Mozilla browsers") does not fix the problem, you may have more versions installed on your system causing problems for each other. This leads us to -
Step 2: Uninstall those you can from Control Panel -> Add/Remove programs. To make sure it is properly cleaned out, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/595817#threadId608043 these excellent tips from noah_sumo] to clean out Java completely, then install latest version again from the [http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp Java.com download page].
If you ''still'' get this error, you may have Norton or another security program which can also in some cases cause this issue. That takes us to:
Step 3: Configure security program correctly.
For Norton 360 see [[Configuring Norton 360]].
For Norton Internet Security, see [[Configuring Norton Internet Security]].
For other firewall programs, see [[Firewalls]].
If none of these steps solves the problem, please provide any detail you can think of that may be related and let us know, and we will try to find other solutions to get this solved.

Since changing our computer I have been unable to download ebooks to my Reader Library I get a message Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library; Waterstones suggest that I may have accidentally created a new Adobe

When I try to download them from the Waterstones website I get a message saying:
‘Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library. Do you want to associate them now? When I reply yes I get another message; ‘Configuration error unable to update EPUB files check network firewall and try again’.
The ‘books’ are saved in the Download directory and I can’t transfer them from there to my E-Reader. I have not had any problems before, it was very simple; I saved the download and it automatically went into the Reader Library.
I contacted HP and they said it is a software error and suggested I contact Waterstones. I contacted Waterstones Customer Support and got the following response:
As the error message is specifically mentioning the firewall it does sound like something in the firewall settings is stopping the download from taking place correctly. However, the files should not be being saved to the Download folder. It would be worth trying again by going to your Digital Order History on your Waterstones.com account and pressing the download button, and then making sure to press "Open" not "Save". When you press Open rather than Save it should give the option to open the file with Adobe Digital Editions. If the firewall message still comes up then I'm afraid something is blocking it on your end.
If the above "Open" download method works but you then still get an error message it could possibly be that you have accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up on the new computer, rather than signing in with your old Adobe ID. It would be worth trying the aforementioned download technique again first, but if problems did still persist it would be worth calling Adobe themselves on 0207 365 0735, as they should be able to sort out any account issue.
In response to the first para of Waterstones email I already do what they suggest I do press ‘Open’ not ‘Save’ but I don’t get the open with Adobe Digital Editions (we have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer. Waterstones say we may have ‘accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up the new computer’ does that mean that we shouldn’t have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer as it would have already been there? How do I sign in with my old Adobe ID?

Hi all after attampting to get some supoport from adobe by phone.... nice people infurating policys as far as support for digital editions or DRM is conserned... However I got no where with support.
I ended up instaling Digital editions on my desktop PC and going through the motions of registering and borrowing a book then returning it. Then I trying on my iPad, Bluefire worked, Over drive did not so I completely removed Overdrive and reinstalled and re registered. all working now.
Maybe some one at adobe did something. Maybe the install of the adobe DE client on a PC corrected what ever was out of wack with my account. Mayby the server that my account lives on did a scan disk and corrected a bad clustrer.
What ever happend My account is actiove and working again. hope this helps others.

Strange Comments issue I may have caused, any suggestions?

Hello, I may have caused a problem on my iWeb blog and hope that someone can offer suggestions.
What I did was this - my blog page name was Weblog. I changed it to Blog while making other changes to my website. I then published changes. However, when I saw that my changes were still showing in red (website was not updated), I published all and everything went to blue. My site was updated.
Problem - after doing the above, I noticed that all my entries on the website said "No Comments", even on entries that I know have comments. I went into iWeb and it says the same thing, but when I read the blog entry, the comments are there with the correct count. So I can see the comments in iWeb, but not on the website. Both iWeb and the website show "No Comments" in the blog page and in each entry.
I later read the Apple troubleshooting note (via a link in this forum) that because the comments are stored on their server, we should not change the folder name. However, I did not change the folder name, did I? Is that the same as changing the page name in iWeb?
Anyway, I first tested my site by posting a comment in a new entry and it works. However, if I add a comment to an entry that had previous comments, the old comments go away and only the new comment shows. So, I deleted the new comments and quit iWeb without saving. This got me back to where the old comments were still there.
I decided to change the page name back to Weblog and I republished the entire site, but that did not work. All the entries and blog page still say "No Comments" in both iWeb and on my site, even though the comments can be seen in iWeb.
If anyone has any suggestions for getting the website to show the counts, and for the website to show the counts and the comments, I would appreciate it. It was always working well before, I shouldn't have changed the page name, and then change it back, but I didn't think that would do any harm.
BTW, this was my first use and publishing on iWeb since updating to OS 10.5.7 late last week, so not sure if that had anything to do with it. I am also on a new iMac after migrating yesterday, hope that doesn't add to the issue.
Thanks in advance for your help. I have always been able to resolve issues with help from the users here, but I fear that I may have caused a doozy.

The last entry that I know had comments was the one about the World Baseball Classic on March 22, 2009. I looked at the source but don't see any of the comments showing, just something about the Comments widget. Thanks.

In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes

In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes one free other paid account, hence one free App and another paid App the same App?

If both accounts are authorised on your computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you can download the books from both accounts to there (download the books from one account, then sign out of it via Store > Sign Out, log in with the other account via Store > Sign In and download the books from the other account), and sync them over to the iPad's iBooks app via the Books tab.
Or you might be able to sign out of your account on the iPad by tapping on it Settings > Store and sign in with the other account and download the books from that account - I think that it should work, but it's not something that I've tried so I'm not 100% sure that it will

Macbook Pro, running 10.8.5 - can't restart but can shutdown and boot up - may have virus or malware

Needless to say I'm beyond embarrassed. I teach computer science (Middle School, private school) and have forever warned my kids to be very careful what they download; but are always "safer" with Mac OSX. Alas, maybe not. I was trying to download Google Earth a few weeks ago and got caught in that fake trap (the fake "Installer" trick) and realized way too late I'd downloaded something "else" instead of Google Earth. Pop up adware by the gazillion. My browser settings were a mess. Went in and reset them as best as I could. And for awhile, so far so good. Until I tried to launch Firefox this week; and WOW...awful. I deleted my Firefox files, went to Firefox and RE DOWNLOADED (or so I thought) a new version of Firefox, and WHAM. Hit again. I can shutdown my Macbook; I can boot it up from a cold dead start...BUT I can no longer "Restart" the computer without an annoying popup message pretending to be a wayward "Installer" wanting to "complete a download" stating if I didn't want to complete it I could 'click' Abort...well I tried but the screen froze. I've had to shutdown or do a hard reboot to get it back up again. I've checked my settings on Google Chrome; seems fine. Don't use Safari that much, but it appears to be a Firefox troll.
What should I do to troubleshoot what this is and how to be rid of it? I wish I could send you a screen shot of the pop up but alas, it freezes the screen when I try to click anything thus my Screen shot capability is nil.
I bought this Macbook Pro in April, 2013. It's my workhorse. HELP!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I may have deleted some system files from my computer due to my antivirus and now my imac won't start. Actually it does, and then there is a blank screeen with the apple logo and it shuts down right away. is tehre a possibility of recovering my files?

Hello
I was having some problems with my Imac, for a while it was slow and often disconneceted from my wifi, while this one worked perfectly (tested with other devices)
I thoug i might have a virus, so i downloaded an antivirus (mac keeper) and started checking.
I also did a scan of my computer using Console or something from the utilities, and then a folder popped witha file I had canceled a while ago. I canceled the file and then my Imac continued to be slow.
i then restarted my Imac, but when it started, the usual grey logo of Apple appeared, and then it shut down suddently.
I tried to reboot it holding the command key and R but nothing, and then i tried holding the shift key and a bar appeared, and at half of the bar it sut itself down again.
I think it is probably a preoblem because I may have cancelled some of the system files from a folder called "private" in the "documents" folder.
Is there any way I can recover some of my files? maybe all of them? I hope so because I have some important files there
Is this a thing I can do myself or do Ineed to go to a MacStore to repair it? Will I need to change HD or just to format it and reinstall? also if there is any way i can recover some of my files that would be great.
Thanks
Ludo
P.S. problems appeared when i installed the Mavericks version.

If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.
