Iolo System Mechanic app failed and has caused FF not to act right - not loading buttons and some web pages to be a list instead of what the UI should look like.... I have reinstalled but still have the problem and not sure what to do

Basically certain web pages are not loading proper since app Iolo System Mechanic failed. I have reinstalled FF but still not loading right. Buttons are not showing and some pages are in a list instead of the GUI view.

I installed and uninstalled Firefox several times - finaly after I selected NOT to have Firefox as the default browser, the installation worked and pages loads correctly now! I made Firefox the default browser after the successful installation!

I keep getting a error message when I open iTunes asking me to reinstall the 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message.

When I open iTunes I keep getting a error message asking me to reinstall iTunes 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message. Does anyone know a fix for this?

This is obviously a problem apple! Please look at your community boards and see that a number of people have issues with the latest update and sort out.
I have tried a number of times to install the update and have failed getting the same message as you. Tried with the 32 bit instead & no luck. Ive come on here to see if anyone else has a solution & found we all have the same problem. Someone else tried the old uninstall reinstall trick to no avail. Please sort this out apple!!

I keep getting the message "the photo library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto. I have reinstalled but still get the message. What do I need to do?

I have had my iBook for years with iPhoto on and then suddenly today I get the message "The photo library was created with an unreleased version of iPhoto. Please quit and upgrade this photo library by opening it in iPhoto 2 or iPhoto 4. I reinstalled iPhoto but nothing has changed. What do I need to do to get it working again? Help!!

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Emails are "stuck" in my Apple Mail Outbox. I have deleted the account and reinstalled but still have the problem. Apple's "Network Diagnostics" report that it cannot connect to the SMPT server.

Emails are l "stuck" in my Apple Mail Outbox. I have deleted the account and reinstalled but still have the problem. Apple's "Network Diagnostics" report that it cannot connect to the SMPT server. TalkTalk (Tiscali) say there is no problem with their server because I have checked and can send emails with their webmail.

No that is not it:
Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts, the first page has this on it
If you click on the server name in the box (gmail in your case I assume) it opens and reveals this:
If you select Edit SMTP Server list you get this:

Hey janicem42177174,
Adobe no longer supports the installation and use of Acrobat 6 as it is a very old version which is not compatible with Windows 7.
I would suggest you to please use the latest version of Acrobat i.e. 11.0.10 which is fully compatible with your OS with its enhanced features and functions.
You might download a free 30-day trial version of Acrobat from here:
Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat XI Professional
Let me know how it goes

Anubha

After upgrading to Mavericks, all of my contacts disappeared. Did a "contacts archive" export and the file is 17mbs. Looks like there's data, but none of it at all displays. What gives? 20" iMac, early '09

First timer. Just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the pressent speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

I'm a first timer on this (or any) help site. I just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the present speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug tomorrow and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

Hi Oneinspirit,
Time Machine backups can be paused by choosing "Stop Backing Up" from the Time Machine icon on the right hand side of your menu bar ( ). Once you're ready to resume the backup, you can choose "Back Up Now" from the same icon.
Start a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Back Up Now.
Pause a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Stop Backing Up.
OS X Yosemite: Start, pause, and resume a Time Machine backup

I have searched but still have unanswered questions?

First, I would like to comment on what a great resource this forum is. Over the past several weeks, I have learned how to import 8mm tape (using an old Sony Handycam) into Imovie 11, edit, show the full frame, etc. I purchased Idvd on the internet, shared the Imovie project to Idvd and burned dvd's. I have done much reading of old threads but still have a few questions.
There were threads discussing the quality of 8mm vids regarding the interlacing of the lines. Apparently, Imovie dropped every other line. Is this still a concern with Imovie 11?
If dropping of every other line is still an issue, is there a way to prevent or work around?
Now that I have shared the project to Idvd, can I delete the project from Imovie and then save it out of Idvd? My intent would be to save to a separate drive.
Is there a specific method for saving out of Idvd?

After restoring the iPod to factory settings did you restore your data/content from a backup or did you set the iPod up as new?
If you set the iPod up as a new iPod then your issue is most likely hardware related. If you are under warranty you can contact AppleCare or make a Genius Bar appointment to have the iPod replaced or repaired.
If you restored your data/content from a backup then there is still a chance that your issue could be software related because the backup contains bits and pieces of the old software. Try restoring the iPod and setting it up as new.
I hope this helps!

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.

HT1925 I am having an issue with loading Itunes. I receive a missing dll file notice. Then another error message. I have reinstalled Windows & still get the error. I did not get the error until I recently did an ITunes update.

I am having an issue with ITunes after a recent ITunes update. I can not open ITunes, I get a message missing MSVCR80.dll file, Then an error 7 message. I have redone the OS for Windows 7 and restarted the computer. I keep getting the errors.

Do the following:
Uninstall from Windows the following five programs: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support. You do this from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
Download the latest version of iTunes from Apple and note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
Run the iTunes installation as an administrator, just Right click iTunes installer and Run as Administrator.

I have adblock but still get pop ups and ads

I get pop ups and ads on both safari and google chrome and have an adblocker on both. These pop ups are ads in many different ways most common is a new tab opening usually that stupid mac keeper website.

You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

When on facebook or sites with pictures, the pctures almost look like a negative except that it's green. this does NOT happen in IE

while on facebook pictures look like negatives but green. almost as if they were ifrared but bright green. eyes, hair, items most of the picture is this bright green. this does not happen if i go to facebook using Internet Explorer. i have deleted firefox and reinstalled over and over but it keeps reoccurring. very frustrating!!

That's strange, I haven't heard of that one! A standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether it is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
If the photos look right, the problem most likely is an add-on or custom setting. Do you have any add-ons that modify or block images, ads, or Flash?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but still get the same error message about profile missing or inaccessible--what do I do now?

When I opened the profiles folder there were folders missing (less folders than were shown on the help page). I tried using a restore point, but that did not work either. I don't know what else to do. :( I cannot access the manual fix steps because the browser will not open, so that is useless information.

See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-run-firefox-when-your-profile-missing-or-inacc
This is usually caused by a problem with the profiles.ini file and the profile marked as Default=1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.
*Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\<br>C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
*Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
*Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/
You can use one of these to make Firefox create/use a new default profile:
*Delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
*Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
*Use "Choose Folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile
