I want to uninstall and do fresh & complete install instead of the upgrade
It didn't give me an option, it just installed on top od 10.4 I want to empty our and do a fresh and complete install but not the upgrade install. I had 10.4 and now I have upgrade to 10.5
Can you tell me how to do this please.
Boot with the install disk, select your language, and select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Erase the disk/partition/volume you want to install Leopard on and ensure that you select Mac OS Extended, when that's finished, quit Disk Utility, and continue to install. Erase & Install will be the only viable option.

Firefox 5 has caused so many problems, I want to uninstall and go back to a previous version. how?
firefox 5 has caused so many problems, I want to uninstall and go back to a previous version. the problem is that one of the issues 5.0 has caused is an error message when I click on "add or remove " on my control panel, so I can't remove Firefox 5. I have downloaded and run 3 supposedly good "fixers", but nothing has corrected my error issue. how can I uninstall 5.0 if I can't open the "add or remove" option? edit

Install Portable Firefox 3.6.x to your hard drive for that one website. It won't affect your current Firefox installation at all. <br />

I want to uninstall Acrobat reader. I got support in the community to access my HD and to send to trash the internet plugs in for PDF viewer, but when I try to download a PDF from internet a black screen appears and preview doesn't open
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
I want to uninstall and then reinstall Firefox but I can't uninstall it. Nothing happens when I click remove in program access and defaults and the helper.exe file in the firefox uninstall dir doesn't do anything either.
"program access and defaults" is not the place to remove programs in Windows. You need to go to the control panel and click on Add and Remove programs. For instructions on how to uninstall Firefox, see [[Uninstalling Firefox]]

first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the revo uninstaller http://http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.

I downloaded an entire album off of itunes today. When i went to the library to listen to them, four of the ten songs only played to 45 seconds and then stopped completly. Where as the rest of the songs played fine. Is there anyway to fix it?
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
It originally did not download correctly. I refreshed the download and it supposedly completed. Upon playing the song in both my library and on the Itunes store it will not play past the first 5 seconds. How can I fix this?
Hello Whitney262,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I would go ahead and make sure you can first download the content, then remove the song from your iTunes Library, and download again from your iTunes past purchases. The article below will walk you through the entire process:

Windows 7 crashed after Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium completed an update. The only Windows restore point that worked was pre-installation of CS6 software.

My ipad will has a pop-up that will not go away when I click ok, and makes it completely impossible to use the ipad. The pop-up says "iCloud Backup: This ipad has not been backed up in 6 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wifi." I do not know what to do.
Same situation. Had to pull out the Mini to research this. The Apple logo has been on the screen about five min, oh, just went black. Home brought it back and popup is gone. Wonder why this happened to many folks.

Tiger disc won't eject and won't completely install
Well, I've made some progress. In case you didn't see my earlier post, my hard drive crashed. I bought a new one from iFixit.com with more memory. The installation went smoothly as far as I can tell. I have an aluminum 17 in Powerbook G4 with 1.0 mghz. I am trying to install Tiger and then restore my data from my Maxtor external hard drive where I have the data backed up. I read somewhere to check the memory. I have two and found I hadn't seated them well enough. Now the Tiger disc will open and start installing, but when it comes to the screen where it says to select a destination volume, I am given no choices and I can't go forward. I still need to know if I can completely install Tiger from the Tiger disc or do I need to install the original Software install and restore disc first. Then, how can I get the Tiger disc out. I have tried the eject button, starting it up with the mouse key down, starting it up with the option key down, and tweezers. Nothing works to eject the disc. Also now I can't physically open the top from the body of the computer with the battery in place. It opens fine with the battery out.I would appreciate some help. Thank you in advance.
Carl SutherlandBDAqua,
I don't know anything about those things. The instructions on installing the new hard drive were very detailed and didn't mention any of those terms. I still think I may need to install that original disc I got with my computer but I can't because the Tiger disc is stuck.
Thanks

I am using a Mac Leopard and want to know if I upgrade to Snow Leopard (so I can use the new Lightroom 4) will any of my programs be affected. I will not be able to restore some software and want to know if I'll lose those programs with the upgrade?
Hello,
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they do still have it:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
And it's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account Apple will send one free.
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode. -
Can I go to an Apple store and have IOS 8 uninstalled and an earlier version installed? IOS 8 has destroyed the battery life on my 4S
No; they will not downgrade that device, and it’s highly unlikely that they have the same iPhone model running an older iOS version.

I've installed Mountain Lion and haven't been totally happy with the upgrade.
My PBPro is now slower, I have a lot more "Beach Balls" and Dreamweaver/Fireworks CS5.5 repeatedly crash upon opening. I have Adobe working on the problem so now I'm trying Apple to see if there is a solution, update, something I should try to get my apps working and my PB speeded up. I do not want to go back, I'd like to work out these issues. I use my PB everyday for work and I need Dreamweaver/Fireworks and my apps to work as before the upgrade.
Try repairing your permissions. Go to applications then to the "other" folder then go to disk utility, on the left hand side you will see a white box. Select the second option, usually called "mac HD" with that selected click on "repair permissions" in the center towards the bottom of the screen. Wait for it to complete, then see if this fixes the issue.
And clear your computer caches:
Here’s how to clean your caches:
1. Choose Users>your user name>Library>Caches.
2. From the Menu bar, choose Edit>Select All.
3. Drag all of the items to the Trash.
4. From the Macintosh HD, choose Library>Caches.
5. Choose Edit>Select All, and drag the items to the Trash. You’ll be required to type in an administrator’s password.
6. Restart your Mac.
This should resolve the beachball and possibly the adobe crash, though that could be due to a plug in
