Im getting a pop up to fix all issues affecting your system status by activating MacKeeper. should i activate?

No, no, no.  MacKeeper is legit virus protection software BUT it's very poorly written.  I had it on my Mac and, on occasion, it would take three or four minutes to do something as simple as opening a folder.  I did some investigation and found that MacKeeper was consuming 200% or my processor when the virus protection kicked in.  Don't ask.  I can't explain a figure greated than 100%.  In any event, I deleted MacKeeper and the problem was instantly solved.
For the record, virus protection is really unnecessary with a properly maintained Mac.  I bought MacKeeper for the purpose of retrieving a trashed file from a jump drive.  It couldn't do that, either!
Finally, MacKeeper is only for the Mac - you couldn't install it on an iPad even if you wanted to.

    I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player.  It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    This did not work

    >> "NSDArray...[numbers/letters]".
    That's an error from the OS leaking into Photoshop.  It is due to a bug in MacOS 10.10 that occurs in the open and save dialogs (which are controlled by the OS). Apple is aware of this and working on solutions.
    Some people have had luck changing the view in the open/save dialogs to grid view or list view.

  • HT1237 My MacBookPro9,2 gets error message: "This software is not supported on your system." Audio jack is ignored. What else can I do?

    MACBOOK Pro 13-inch Mid 2012
    2.9GHz Intel Core i7
    8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Intel HD Graphics 40000 512 MB
    Mac OS X Lion 10..5 (11G63)
    Model Identifier:                    MacBookPro9,2
    Boot ROM Version:          MBP91.00D3.B08
    SMC Version (system):          2.2f44
    Passed Last Power on Self-Test
    The MacBook EFI Updater File that I downloaded from the Apple website for Support:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
      --> shows my Model McBookPro 9,2 as needing
    EFI Boot ROM version MBP91.00D3.B08 (EFI 2.9) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1593)
    SMC version 2.2f44 (SMC 1.8) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633)
    I downloaded and tried to run both the files
    MacBookProEFIUpdate2.9.dmg 9/19/12
    AND
    MacBookProSMCUpdate.pkg
    as offered on this matrix, which instructs:
    "This article lists firmware updates that were released for Intel-based Macs. They update the firmware that originally shipped from the factory. If your computer does not appear on this list, an update from the factory firmware is not necessary.
    If you are unsure whether your computer needs a particular update, simply download and open the update installer. The installer will alert you if the firmware update is already installed or not needed."
    and instead of a message telling me of the proper update
    "This software is not supported on your system."
    So, why would the manual updater not tell me I already have the proper SMC and EFI updates?
    What is the reason I get the message that the software I downloaded from Apple Support is not supported on my system?
    Is this indicative of a larger problem with my MACBOOK PRO? 

    [email protected],
    why were you trying to reïnstall the Boot ROM and SMC versions that were already installed on your MacBook Pro?
    I agree that  a “not supported” message is certainly less clear than an “already installed” message would have been.

    A misleading and malicious popup. Launch Safari with the Shift key held down; if that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.

  • Pop Up Problems with all browsers and operating systems

    I have a website that uses pop up windows in several areas.
    They have worked fine for over two years. All of a sudden none of
    my popups work. I tested on both a mac and a pc and on firefox,
    explorer and safari. Pop up blocker has nothing to do with this
    problem. I'm completely dumbfounded.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Good grief - all one line.... That's why it's not working.

    I had a problem where Outlook would shutdown as it loaded up. Now that was fixed, now I can't synch. I get a "outlooksyncclient.exe" has failed Microsoft will shutdown the program. Anyone else getting this error?

    Also, if something is conflicting or blocking the "outlooksyncclient.exe", this article might help you narrow down what is causing this issue.

  • How do I get my purchased apps/ringtones/songs after you upgraded your system?

    I upgraded the system on my phone from the 4 to the 4S on iTunes and I have lost all my purchased songs/apps/ringtones. How do I recover these? There is nothing on my iTunes that has backed up my info. Also I went to see if I could get them by redownloading them but I had to pay for them so I didn't do that because I don't want to have to pay twice.

  • I keep getting the message ''Mozilla Firefox is not responding" and the system then freezes. What should I do to correct this ? Thanks.

    This freezes everything including my e-mail, or slows it down
    greatly. I also get this message with Internet Explorer. I have
    Verizon FIOS as my Internet connection.

    I just posted a similar problem below. You pointed me to the problem - thanks. My 'wrong browser version' was being caused by an old version number being left in the 'general.useragent.override' field. It would seem that this old version number would be deleted upon an upgrade, but the old version number is simply left in there. I changed the field from:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.20) Gecko/20081217 Firefox/2.0.0.18

  • TS1394 I downloaded MacKeeper, since it identifies itself as an Apple application.  Then I got suspicious and deleted the download.  Yet the icon is still in the menu on the top line.  System is somewhat slow. Now mackeeper pop up says it can fix all?

    Is MacKeeper a legitimat Apple ware? I have deleted the downloads, yet the icon remains in the upper line and there are pop-ups:  Fix all issues that affect your system status by activating MacKeeper.  What should I do?

    Do not install MacKeeper (and how to uninstall it if you have):
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6221
    (Please note that references to the original developers, Zeobit, also now refer to Kromtech Alliance Corp, who acquired MacKeeper and PCKeeper from ZeoBit LLC in early 2013.

  • I don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    i don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    What do you mean the "update" says plug it into iTunes? If you have the iTunes logo/USB cord on the screen, it's in recovery mode or needs to be activated. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. You have no choice but to plug it into the computer. Hopefully, you backed it up before you started the update.
    If that's not what you mean, then please explain.
    Apple may or may not be able to fix the lock button for you without replacing the phone entirely. You'll have to take it in and ask.

    Hi Doomtrooper,
    When you updated your iPhone 4S and iPad3 to iOS6, what exactly do you mean when you can't access the iTunes store? Have you checked your connection to the network?
    Please be a little more specific

  • Why not all fields dimmed or show in display mode after system status TECO and CLSD for Project

    Dear All,
    When Sets the system status TECO or even CLSD all fields for WBS Elements are not goes to Display mode. User can still edit them or change then.
    The fields are:
    1. WBS Element Description, technical name: PRPS-POST1
    2. Person responsible number, technical name: PRPS-VERNR
    Other Progress and Customer enhancement tab pages for WBS Element all fields there also editable in TECO and CLSD system status.
    The client do not want to set LOCK system status for master data option.
    Is there any enhancement or standard way of doing that?
    Regards
    Saqib Usman

    Dear Saqib,
    Its a standard behavior of the system. In CLSD status, transactional data like Procurement gets restricted along with WBSE no and its scheduling details. But it allows to you change like WBSE desc./Responsible person.
    Also go thru the below link for clarification of WBSE system status:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/ee/41f82246ee11d189470000e829fbbd/content.htm
    For locking all master data, as above experts suggest, you should use MDLK/LKD.
