Why do you think you have them on there? Have you allowed someone to physically have each device and jailbreak it?

How do I find and get rid of a virus?

I was on a website called 'thedarehub.tv' to watch a movie, and when I went to click on a link to watch it, another window popped up and said "There was a virus on one of the pages and now your computer has a virus". (FYI, I did not download anything) I quickly closed out every window, but now I want to find the virus it said I had and get rid of it and clean my laptop. I thought Mac's couldn't get viruses...I guess I was mistaken. HELP!!!

You don't have a virus, or any other type of malware. There is no software in the world that can tell what is on another computer through a web browser.
Any such popup or web page is a scam. Either to sell you worthless software, or to call some number where they will fleece out of as much money as you're willing to cough up.

Did you purchase them on your iPad with the same Apple ID that you are using for iTunes on your iPhone and that iTunes on your Mac is sign into?

I want to use The Duplicate Finder to get rid of duplicates in iphoto. I created a library as a folder on my desktop. Should I trash the photos in iphoto before I run the duplicate finder?

I want to use The Duplicate Finder to get rid of duplicates in iphoto. I created a library as a folder on my desktop and droped it into Dupe Finder. Many dupes were found. Before I have it auto select dupes, should I trash the photos in iphoto? Or will Dupe Finder do that for me automatically?

1 - if you want to remove duplicates from your iPhoto library you would not be using a copy of it
2 - don't do anything without a good, current backup
3 - reading the Duplicate Finder web site does not tell me tha tit is safe to use on the iPhoto library - i suggest you use one of the known good and tested duplicate eliminations programs - see this discussion for links - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24363132#24363132
4 - One cardinal rule - NEVER make any chnages to the structrure or content of the iPhoto library using any porogram (including the finder) other than iPhoto - the programs listed in the linked discussion use iPhoto to do the deleting

MPlayerX isn't itself the problem; it was downloaded from a source that packaged adware with it. Click here and follow the instructions, or if desired, run Adware Medic.

Help! Safari and trojan? How do I identify and get rid of it?

Please help me understand and get rid of this—your expertise sincerly appreciated! I posted about this problem a couple of weeks ago, but got no response. I seem to have a trojan attached to Safari (my analysis). It delays or stops loading of all pages, thumbnails don't load (such as in ebay), overall response is slow or freezes, etc. My console shows the following sets of messages whenever I try to open a page:

How do I identify this iskysoft, where it is located, and delete it?? Please help if you can.
I have followed all (possibly-related) advice I could find in the forums, including deleting all safari extensions, repeated cache empty, reload safari from scratch, delete safari library folders as admin and user, scan with sophos and intenet cleanup, etc. Finder doesn't locate anything named iskysoft on my computer, but the iskysoft website has to do with video conversion.
The slowdown has lasted since the end of 2010, but I just discovered the console messages a few weeks ago, and have been trying to understand and deal with that since.
Thanks for your time and knowledge. I could really use the help!

Hi,
Try MacScan for malware.
http://macscan.securemac.com/
You are positive you haven't installed the iSkysoft software??
Purchased as a bundle by chance by another name?

The slowdown has lasted since the end of 2010,
Maybe it's not the iSkysoft causing the slow down. Check to see how much free space there is on the startup disk.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*
Try using Spotlight (top right corner of your screen, the magnifying glass icon, to find the software.

Any way to search for and get rid of duplicate songs?

Is there any way to recognize and then get rid of duplicate songs? I copied some songs from a different computer and ended up duplicating some of my existing songs. Any way to search for and then get rid of the duplicates?

The apple algorithm for detecting duplicates is not great. I did this yesterday on a library which had got bloated by various itunes 'organisations' and had 15000 songs in it and downloaded idupe. It seemed to work very well and got me down to 10,000 songs. 8USD shareware.

I am also trying to figure out how to get iphoto not to pick up every piece of clipart or phone icon etc that crosses its path. my iphoto is a HUGE mess and i am trying to clean it up...48K pictures...

Do you have a back up of the iPhoto library from before the crash?

How do I make a backup and get rid of duplicates?

I have so many duplicate photo's- I want to get rid of it, but how? ANd how do I make a save backup first?

To make a back up you simply back up your iPhoto Library, which is in your Pictures Folder. You can do this by copying it to an external disk, by using a back up utility such as DejaVu or Chronosync (there are many other possibilities, search on MacUpdate). You can also make a back up by burning to disk.
As for Duplicates: check out Duplicate Annihilator

Mistakenly ordered duplicate audiobook, how can I remove and get reimbursed for duplicate?

I mistakenly ordered a duplicate of an audiobook I already have.
Is there any way to remove and get reimbursed for it?

Try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
(Note that audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so you may want to take a backup copy of any that you have - and anything else that you've downloaded from the store, rights-holders could remove any item at any time.)

Anyway to get rid of duplicates, photo, software, and documents, without having to buy software?

Subject says it all. Seems to me I read a post some time ago that we can do this without going through the infamous MacKeeper.

Just an overdue "ps". I forgot to mention that there was somewhat of a viral rant on MacKeeper (with which I heartily concur) and that OS X software provided all that was needed to do much of the above work. Of course, I forgot what that was.
However, I did purchase, after reading a bucket of reviews, "Tidyup" that appears to be the first, user-friendly, non-obliterating software that does exactly what you want it to. With my first use, I dumped 4 gigs of duplicates without the color draining experience of losing lifetime photographs (can you say, "Spring Cleaning"?).

How to find/get rid of duplicates in iTunes 11?

I have to many duplicates on iTunes, and i know there was an option before to find and get rid of duplicates on the old version of itunes. is there a way to do it on the new iTunes 11?

Apple has removed that feature along with several others, but
(5/12/2012) Missing 'Find Duplicates' feature in iTunes 11 to be restored - http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57557280-263/missing-find-duplicates-featur e-in-itunes-11-to-be-restored/ "Some of the features Apple has removed from iTunes will see a return, but others may indicate changes to come elsewhere in Apple's product lines."
Until then you will have to resort to sorting by a particular label such as artist and manually scanning, third party utilities such as Dougscripts Dupin to deal with duplicates, or revert back to iTunes 10.7.
