  • Installed Flash and it said it was successful but it doesn't work?

    I installed the Flash Player and it said it was successful, but when i went to use it the page that says "you need flash to view this content" came up. So, i uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but the same thing happened. Then I checked the preferences on safari and made sure javascript and plugins were enabled (I tried to enable java too but i couldnt find it on the preference menu). This didnt help and it still gave me the same message. Then, i went to the adobe website and they had a button that checked to see if flash was installed on your computer and when I clicked it, it said i didnt, but it was installed. I have tried pretty much everything and have read all the forums and nothing seems to be working.
    The computer I have is a MacBook pro, version 10.9 and safari is version 7.
    Thank you

    I am suddenly experiencing incredibly bizarre Flash Player 12 problems in Windows 7 64-bit in both the Firefox 27 and IE browsers. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a way to post the appropriate details here in a new forum topic in order to get the help I need.
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • Adobe 8 PDF maker stopped working- have reinstalled but still doesn't work

    I have unistalled and reinstalled (chose standard install) but when trying to make a PDF file from a word document get "Missing PDF maker files". Have also tried repairing  but hasn't fixed it? Help please

    You can always print to the Adobe PDF printer if you get pressed, but then you lose the features of PDF Maker. You did not indicate the version of WORD or if you upgraded WORD to an new version. That is important in the answer. If you had not upgraded WORD, but maybe did periodic updates, it may have disabled the PDF Maker addin.
    Of course, you have have not told us how you were trying to make the PDF from the WORD files. What were your steps, that may also impact the answer.

  • Ipod Touch says I have wifi but it doesn't work

    I have wifi and usually my Ipod Touch works but just recently it has stopped working. It says I have wifi and even the little bars show up but when ever I try to pull up an app that requires wifi it says it cannot retrieve download info please connect with iTunes. I have already tried to reset the network settings and even restored it.

    How about some details about your wireless network?
    Some things you can check real fast - go to Settings > WiFi. Do you have check mark next to your network name? If you tap the blue > next to the name, what does your IP address look like (if it is 169.x.x.x you are not connected to your network)?
    Let us know and we will go from there.

  • Have Safari, but it doesn't work

    I downloaded Safari, but it only appears as a document, and when i try to open it, i get a message that says that the application that was used to create is gone, and so now i need help, what application do i need to use to open a document with the .dmg extension

    If you're running 8.6 and don't want to invest in a newer and far better OS, but just want to use it for simple stuff like mailing and browsing the internet, you must look for older versions of Netscape or Internet Explorer, that went along with 8.6. Netscape needs version 4 or even earlier, you can still find it here:

    Old versions of Microsofts Internet Explorer are harder to find.

  • EDGE indicator shows I have it, but it doesn't work

    I was just out not too far from my house and tried to get online. The E on the interface shows up, but I try to get mail and I'm told that EDGE isn't working or not able to connect or something like that. I just checked the coverage map and I'm in the moderate zone.
    Are the maps incorrect? I got back in to the city and could connect just fine.

    Just curious if you've tried any troubleshooting on the iPhone.
    One thing you may want to try is toggling Airplane mode. This resets all of your network connections. Go into Settings; you'll see the switch to turn it on. Turn it on and wait about 10 seconds, then turn it back off. Wait for the iPhone to return to its normal signal strength for the area, and then try EDGE again.
    If that doesn't resolve it, try power cycling. Hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider. Slide it to power off the iPhone. Again, wait about 10 seconds, turn it back on by pressing that same button once. When the Apple disappears and the iPhone goes to the Home screen and has full signal strength, try EDGE again.

  • I have OS 10.8.2 and connected the scanner Canoscan Lide110. I downloaded the drivers, looked installed, the scanner appears in the system preferencies, but it doesn't open!!! what i have to do? thanks in advance for your kind advice!

    Thanks for your help Karen Serena. Obviously, it appears in the list of printers and scaners on the left, into the "Print and Scan" with system preferencies. Then i click it , it appears on the right, then i click "open scanner" below the name and opens a window writing "open device failed". When i connect the scanner, it makes a sound but that's all...the scanner is dead, even if I push any button...Also there isn't any window opened to prove the function of the scanner, only is shown in the scanner list, that's all.

    I am trying to re-install Photoshop CS6. The files have downloaded but I get and error message that the Adobe Support Advisor is required to determine what the installation probIem is. I click on the link that says "get the Support Advisor here only to be told the Support Advisor no longer exists!! A blind loop. I need to have Photoshop CS6 installed...what do I do from here??

    The CC Cleaner Tool assumes the Akamai Download Manager is activated and it has not. It seems to be the missing file that triggers the error message. \in a previous re-install I was prompted to download & install the Akamai Download Manger, but not this time. Is there somewhere on the Adobe website that I can download it??

  • Can anyone help? I have downloaded and installed the QuickTime MPEG-2 Component but it doesn't work.

    I purchased the QuickTime MPEG-2 component for Quicktime as I am using Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and I want to be able to via MPEG-2 transport streams.
    I paid £14.00 - everything downloaded and installed fine but it doesn't work and I am still unable to view the transport streams in Quicktime even though according to the website this is want the component will let me do.
    I have rebooted several times, reinstalled both Quicktime and the MPEG-2 component and still nothing.  I have then spent ages going around and around in circles on the website trying to find a way of emailing customer services or technical support to get some assistance but I just always end back in the same place no further forward.
    Please can anyone else offer any suggestions - either how I can get it working or how I can get my £14 back from Apple!!

    1) Suggest you reread the "Feature" details for the QT MPEG-2 Playback Component paying particular attention to the paragraph titled "Can transport streams be played?" which clearly states that this codec does NOT support the playback of transport stream (TS) files.
    2) This codec can only be used with "classic" QT apps such as the QT 7 player, GarageBand, or third-party apps like the free MPEG Streamclip app.
    3) The VLC player intrinsically supports TS files. MPEG Streamclip with the QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installed supports TS file playback.
    4) MPEG Streamclip with the QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installed can also resave muxed TS file content as muxed program stream (PS) content which is then "playback" compatible with both QT 7 and QT X players (assuming you select an audio compression format compatible with both) or convert the muxed TS content to QT "edit" compatible compression formats if desired.
    Please can anyone else offer any suggestions - either how I can get it working or how I can get my £14 back from Apple!!
    Apple seldom makes refunds to people who successfully purchase software which they do not really understand how to use—cavaet emptor. It is difficult to make suggestions here without knowing more about your personal preferences and/or work flow requirements. I personally would keep the codec to enhance various playback, conversion, and editing options on my Mac.

  • I have installed TomTom navigation on my ipad2 but it doesn't work?

    I have installed TomTom navigation on my ipad2 but it doesn't work? Actually the application starts to find the Satelite but it never finds it,!?

    Are you outside with a clear view of the sky? The first time a GPS device tries to acquire the GPS satellites it could take several minutes. Subsequent acquisitions will be faster.
    And as already asked, does your iPad have GPS?

  • I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.  I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

    I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
    I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
    I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
    Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

    Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
    For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
    To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
    At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
    Good luck!

  • Help! I have had my iMac G5 fitted with new Logic Board but it doesn't work

    Help! I have had my iMac G5 fitted with new Logic Board but it doesn't work
    I have just had my iMac G5 First Gen 1.8Ghz fitted with a new Logic Board under the Apple Repair Extension Programme for iMacs.
    I got the iMac home from the repairers and switched it on and everything was working fine for about 2 hours and then all of a sudden the Error Page came up on the Screen (with a big On/Off Switch Logo) and it said I had to shut down.
    So I shut it down waited a few minutes and then tried to re-boot it but nothing happened. All that happended was the Power Light in the Right hand corner came on..but nothing else....
    Help! Any ideas what to do please?

    If you have an external firewire drive (it has to be firewire, USB won't boot on a Rev A), plug it in to the firewire port and turn it on, then boot your iMac and see if it shows on the screen.
    Have you tried to hit the eject (up arrow, the last button on the top row of the keyboard) button when you boot, perhaps the repairers left a disc in the drive? Then try and put your install disc in.

  • TS1253 I have a printer epson TX210, but it doesn't work with my time-capsule. What need to do?

    I have a printer epson TX210, but it doesn't work with my time-capsule. What need to do?

    What have you tried?
    You are going to get nowhere quick with the 6.1 utility in Mountain Lion if this is the only OS you have available.
    Look up how to install 5.6 utility under ML. At least then you can see printers. That is assuming you are trying to use USB.
    Has this worked ever on Mountain Lion? Did you download the drivers for that printer for ML?
    Plug it into a computer directly.. does it work? If it doesn't work locally it sure will not work via the network.
