I updated to V4 but firefox will no longer open when I click on the icon. I can see that the process has started, but there is no browser display. Stopping the process and trying again does not work. Please advise
Prior to updating to V4, firefox worked perfectly with all my existing applications. After I updated it will not launch a browser page, even though the process is shown to be operable in the Task Manager. The same problem occurs on start-up of my computer, so there are no previous processes running.
I cannot launch the broswer at all so cannot try clearing the cache etc or other suggested troubleshooting solutions.
In the Task Manager, make sure to check both the Applications tab and the Processes tab. On the Processes tab, Firefox may have two different components running: firefox.exe and plugin-container.exe. Well, in 3.5.11, it would be only the first one.

Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1. Apple Application Support was not found. Error 2. Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work. Is there a fix?
Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Quicktime simply does not work, please advise!
Howdy folks,
There must be something wrong with my Macbook Pro Version 10.6.2, perhaps its too old to allow QuickTime to work? Maybe I need to buy another Macbook thats more up to date?
When I open QuickTime player from the Applications folder, it appears in my dock, but nothing else happens. There is no window that actually allows me to do anything with QuickTime. This could be normal, but I am not sure.
I've been trying to play this movie: http://club2009.upa.org/videos/open-finals for a while now and all that happens is the QuickTime logo appears where the video should be playing. I followed the link at the bottom that says something like 'Problem viewing videos? Download latest QuickTime player'. So I downloaded the latest QuickTime player from the site and during the installation, this message appears:
'QuickTime can't be installed on this disk. This version of QuickTime 7 can't be installed on this disk because QuickTime X is already present. Please us Software Update to install the appropriate version of QuickTime for your Mac.'
This is quite frustrating. Please help!
Many thanks, in advance.Sloppy html page code and older codecs may be getting in the way:

It's a huge file but it opens and works for me when I copy/paste the URL (above) into the Open URL dialog window of QuickTime X and 7.6.6 (requires Snow Leopard 10.6.3).

I tried to install iTunes 10.6.1 for Windows (64 bit) and it says "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes. (-42404). I have tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling and it still does not work. I then restored my computer to a week ago and tried to download and install the update and this came up again.

prompted to update iTunes today and now it does not work. tried reinstalling and caanot successfully reinstall.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

The message function on my Ipad just quit working. I was using it while in Mexico and it just quit. I have come home and synced my Ipad with Itunes and function still does not work. How do I get this function to work again?
When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

tried to run ios5 upgrade, get unkown error 0xE8000065 and now ipad does not work at all and is frozen can not even switch off
Try a hard reset and go from there. You might try a manual install (using DFU Mode), as outlined in the link below.

My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?
- After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod? If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
- If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:

Airplay on ATV and AX from Lion and ML: ML does not work...
Hi all,
I am having a problem with Airplay under Mountain Lion...but not under Lion.
On a MBP 13 (Summer 2009), I can use iTunes Airplay under Lion to stream music to both an Apple TV and to a Airport Express. In fact, I can play iTunes music on the MBP, the Apple TV, and the Airport Express simultaneously (all 3 or any 2 or any 1, individually). [Of course, Airplay display mirroring does not work under Lion, but iTunes Airplay does.]
On a MBP 15 (Early 2011), I can use Airplay under Mountain Lion to mirror the MBP's display on the Apple TV and thus through mirroring I can stream the music from iTunes to the Apple TV. I cannot stream from iTunes to the Airport Express, whether or not I an mirroring to the Apple TV. In other words, even when the mirroring to the Apple TV mirroring is Off and the Apple TV is off, I still cannot use iTunes to stream music to the Airport Express. Now the Airport Express speakers shows up as an option in the iTunes Airplay menu, but when I select it in the menu it does not do anything.
In summary, using Lion I can stream iTunes music to both an Apple TV and to an Airport Express speakers, individually or simulaneously. Using Mountain Lion, I can stream iTunes music to the Apple TV, but only through the use of Airplay display mirroring. I cannot stream music to the Airport Express speakers even though the AX shows up as an item in the iTunes Airplay menu.
Any ideas how to fix this for ML so that it works as in Lion? I checked and have the same Preferences set for both the Lion iTunes and ML iTunes.
Thanks,
Switon...a little more experimentation...
I booted the MBP 15 (Spring 2011) from an external backup of Lion (made immediately prior to switching to ML). When I turn off the Server Firewall then I can iTunes Airplay to both the Apple TV as well as to the Airport Express. But when I turn on the Server Firewall, even after allowing ports 3689, 42000-42999 both TCP and UDP, the Airplay does not work. I could not determine which ports were needed for iTunes Airplay, all I could figure out is that when the Server Firewall is off then iTunes Airplay works but when the Server Firewall is on then iTunes Airplay does not work. I tried logging all denied packets, but to no avail, I still could not determine which ones were being denied.
Interestingly, when I turn off the Server Firewall and switch on the System Preference Security pane Firewall, I can still iTunes Airplay to both the ATV and AX. It makes me wonder if when I switched to ML from Lion that some ipfw rules were not left over from the Lion Server Firewall that then keeps ML from allowing iTunes Airplay to work. (I wonder if I restore my Lion Server, then switch off the Lion Server Firewall, then download and install ML once again, then download and install OS X Server once again, whether the iTunes Airplay would then work? Maybe when I have some more time I'll try this, in the meantime I'm going to try a little harder to figure out why the Lion Server Firewall stops iTunes Airplay from working. Dang nabbit, even "ipfw show" does not tell me which packets are being denied when the Server Firewall is ON and iTunes Airplay does not work...does anyone have any suggestions on how to figure out why the Server Firewall is stopping iTunes Airplay from working?)
Thanks,
Switon -
How can you start up your ipod if holding the hold and home button does not work?

Remi,
How long did you hold these buttons for? Did you try more than once? Have you tried letting it charge for a bit and trying again?
If nothing else, see this article for more troubleshooting assistance.

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!
I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!
You mean an image such as a scanned document?
If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat. -
