My daughter (honestly) forgot her passcode to her ipad 2 and she is now locked out. It states: iPad is disabled connect to itunes. When I connect to itunes it tells me to enter my passcode. How do I get fix this?

When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

I keep getting the error message: " You can't open the application "%@" because it may be damage or incomplete" when I try to install a software that I purchased.

I have a typing software that I bought a while ago. I had installed it on an old pc but I just bought a macbook and I'd like to install it onto the new macbook, as I no longer use the old pc. When I open the installer, I get the error message: " You can't open the application "%@" because it may be damage or incomplete"
Does anybody know if this is fixable or if I need to just buy a new disk?
Thanks!!!

I copy pasted this from the developers website for the minimum requirements of your device: Macintosh® OS X 10.4 – 10.5, PowerPC G4, G5 or Intel Core Duo processor, 800 MHz processor or higher, 256 MB RAM, CD/DVD-ROM drive, 300 MB free hard disk space, Video card with 32 MB of video RAM, 1024 x 768 24-bit color display, Speakers, keyboard & mouse.
Does a macbook pro meet these requirements?

I recently downloaded a program ScanFont 5, When I try to open the installer I get the following message: "You can't open the application "(null)" because it may be damaged or incomplete. Is there any way I can get the installer to open anyway?

The message means just what it says. Remove the damaged copy and try downloading it again.
Edit: Looking at FontLab's page, there's two issues going on.
1) It's a PowerPC app and will not run on any version of OS X newer than Snow Leopard, 10.6.x.
2) The "workaround" they offer is to purchase the Windows version and then run it in the the open source Wine, Windows emulator.

Can you save photos when you can't remember your passcode?

My daughter can't remember her passcode for her iTouch. I would like to save the photos to our desktop before I restore it. Does anyone know how?

If when you do this:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
you cant't import the photos then:
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Maybe via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

So I created my Apple ID when I was 12 and used a fake email, now that I have a real email I can't remember the answered to my Apple ID therefore I cannot change it to my proper email. How do I change my email because?

HHow do I change the email to my apple id when I don't remember security questions and its a fake email?

Which email address are you trying to change ?
You won't be able to change the rescue email address until you can answer your security questions, if you can't remember your answers and gave a fake email address for it then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form to contact Support : https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then change your rescue email address for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID
If it's the primary email address that you are trying to change : Change your Apple ID - Apple Support

My ipad says ipad 2 is disabled connect to itunes.... i havent sync it yet in itunes before i dont even have backup files for my pictures, i dont want to lose the pictures of my niece who just past away. Pls. help me.

what shall i do with this?? the pictures are very much important for me and i cant just simply lose them.

If it's showing the 'connect to iTunes' screen then unfortunately it's too late to copy the photos, or any other content, off it - you can try a soft-reset (i.e. a reboot) of the iPad, but I doubt that it will make any difference : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear. You haven't been backing up to icloud instead of to a computer ?
In order to reset the iPad you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes, and you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Depending upon what country that you are in you might then be able to re-download some/all of your iTunes downloads via the Purchased tabs in the iTunes and App Store apps, and the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app.

My iPod touch says Disabled: Connect to iTunes, and everytime I try it doesn't work. How do I fix this?

I changed my password, and without knowing it, I typed the wrong numbers, and now I don't know my password. I've tried to connect to iTunes, but it doesn't seem to work. It only brings up the USB cable needs to be connected to iTunes on my iPod screen. Does anyone know how to fix this, because it's frustrating.
Thanks!!

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

HT201303 What to do when you can't remember the security answers

What do you have to do when you forget the security questions answers. Do you have to call apple?

But it appears not with a solution. Rather another loop to jump through. I went through this process to follow up. Here's what I received in the email:
When that page loads, the "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" option will be selected. Click "Continue".
On the next screen, you will have the option to call Apple Support now or have them call you later about your account.
... you can also speak to an Account Security Advisor by calling our AppleCare technical support team. To find the right phone number for your country, see this article:
Contacting Apple for support and service
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When you call, ask to speak to the Account Security team.
