IWeb wont work after MAC OS X upgrade, and restore from backup
I upgrading to Mac OS X 10.5.2, and reinstalling iWeb 08, and restoring my website from backup, iWeb does not recognize my existing website. When I opened iWeb for the first time, it had the option for creating a new website, not recognizing my existing website. I could not see an option to "open" or "import". How can I get it to recognize my existing iWeb website?
We website is located in my <user home directory> Root directory. I have also tried placing it in the <user home>\Sites directory and relaunching iWeb with no success.
I made a full backup of the hard drive before I repartitioned it for MAC OS X. I Once the install completed, I copied over the <user>\Domain-Name. I wasn't aware of the one in >library>application support. I went and looked on my backup and could not see anything resembling my domain name or iweb under >library>application support. Can you give me a little more information on this or where it could possibly be? I'm sure that I'm really close to getting this figured out.
Thanks!

My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?
I was having the same problem, I backed up my phone and then updated to iOS 5 and then it kept telling me it could not restore from my backup as it had failed. After reading a bunch of forums and posts and trying everything, I did manage to get it to work. I had tried the Time zone, creating a new computer user account, disabling anti-virus, etc.
It took a combination of things, one of which was disabling the anti-virus completely and copying the contents of the backup folder to my desktop and then deleting everything in the backup folder. Then I rebooted the PC, entirely disabled the anti-virus, copied the one backup I wanted to restore from the desktop to the backup folder and then trying to restore. Low and behold the phone said restoring from backup and I am back in business, so when in doubt, trying combining some of the fixes together. -
Synching iPhone after factory restore and restore from backup; synching appears stuck on Step 5 of 5, "waiting for items to copy." That message displays for hours with no apparent progress.
I never had this problem, but just noticed it happening.. Please note it's a BUG. I went out and bought a 128GB iPhone just to hold all my songs. It wouldn't work. This never happened with the iPhone 3/3s/4/5/5s but started happening with the iPhone 6. After 40 hours of working through all possible solutions on the web and with Apple cares support (supposedly senior level) They finally suggested what the problem was. I had "Convert higher bit songs to 128 aac" Checked. This does not work One more thing when I unchecked that, the sync took like 3.5 hours instead of the 9-12 hours is usually took even on the smaller iphones. I have 98.7GB of music. Before I was just syncing a list of specific songs.
The syncing seems to be random when it has the problem though. -
While updating my iphone 4s to ios6, I had to restore it. Now every time I connect to itunes, I get the "Set Up Your iPhone" window with the set up as new iphone and restore from backup options. After the restore, I got everything except my apps and music back. Do I need to set the phone up as new again?

After ios 5 update and restore from backup my passcode doesn't work, what happened?
yesterday iupdated my ipod touch 4g to ios5 and i selected to backup from an itunes backup i made yesterday morning, but after doing so, my ipod went to sleep, and when i tried to unlock it, it told me ipod disabled wait 1 minute, after a minute i tried again but then it said wait 5 minutes, why isn't my passcode working?
Restore from Backup once more. Passcodes are not restored in backups, so you should be able to get on the iPod without a passcode, then go into Settings and set up a new one (or the old one if you want).

Hello My old mac got bad and I purchased a new iMac. After restoring from my time capsule none of the Adobe products work CS5.5 CS4 Acrobat X pro even when I put the serial number that is on the box. AI and ID gave me error 5. Any suggestions? thanks a lot
You can't install Adobe applications by copying from a backup.
Start by cleaning out all the CS apps using Adobe Cleaner Tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then download a new installer from here:

After HDD Upgrade and Restore from TM, Not Seeing critical Software Updates
I recently upgraded my Hard Drive from 250GB to 320GB (my bro had one laying around from another MBP). I restored from my TimeMachine Backup and everything went very smoothly.
However, I now noticed that there are some issues:
1) I am *still* running Safari 5.1.3, 5.1.4 was released weeks ago and it is not showing as an option to update in Software Updates.
2) There is a very critical Java update that I really need to install that is *also* not showing up in the list of available Software Updates.
3) When restoring from TM Backup, it doesn't create the Restore Partition automatically.
I was able to fix Item 3 above by simply downloading and reinstalling Lion, nothing was bricked on my machine or files lost from my reinstalling.
However I am at a loss as to how to fix Item 1 and 2 above.
Any ideas? Apple Gurus?
Thanks!Hi current:
Yes it is. I tried it (as a test for myself) a couple of weeks ago. I admit I had a current bootable clone in case something went cuckoo.
I made a current TM backup and then erased my internal HD. When I booted from my software install DVD, I was given the TM restore option. I did not reinstall OS X on my internal HD first.
It worked perfectly for me, by the by.

I updated my iMac to Mountain Lion. All the files were deleted. I have Time Machine backups. When I restart the mac pressing Command R to restore it from the backup it shows the previous OS X (Leopard) beside the date of the backup that I want to select. Will it go back to Leopard if I restore it from the backup?
No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.

Iphone 4s fails to restart after installing ios 5.1 & then restoring from backup ?
I have restored My Iphone 4s to Os 5.1 Yesterday ... every thing went fine ..... at the time of restoring it from my previous backup ........ iphone fails to restart ..... it is in continous loop of apple logo and busy icon thereafter .. can anybody help ????
In that case, if everything else has failed, you can restore your iPhone by putting it in to DFU mode.
Follow the steps precisely.
1) Connect your phone to computer. Open iTunes (if it doesn't open automatically).
2) Turn your phone off. Turn off the device by holding down the sleep/power button in the top right corner and Home button at the same time. A red slider will appear. Slide it to the right to turn off the device. Alternatively, keep holding both buttons even after the slider appears and the device will turn off. Let go of the buttons when the device powers down.
3) Put iPhone into DFU mode. Hold down both the top (sleep/wake) and home buttons for exactly 10 seconds, then release the top (sleep/wake) button but keep holding the home button until iTunes displays a message stating that a phone in recovery mode has been discovered. Let go of the Home button.
4) Device screen is Black. If your device's screen is black, you are in DFU Mode. It may appear that the device is turned off, but it's not. If your phone displays anything, you are not in DFU mode.
5) Restore. Press the restore button and allow the phone to complete the restoration data. After it is done, select setup as a new phone. (Preferable)
Restore your backup (optional). Next, you can restore the phone again in the normal fashion (not DFU mode) using the most recent backup rather than setting up as a new phone. However, this may cause the original problem to return in some cases. If the problem returns, follow steps 1-5 again and setup as new. Do not restore from your backup afterwards. -

Numbers wont work After update on ipad 2 and iphone 5s with iCloud sync activated!
Am i the only one expiriencing that Problem ??????? ...
Welcome to the Apple Community.
1. Open Numbers on your computer and move any documents in iCloud to your desktop for safe keeping.
2. Navigate to system preferences > iCloud > Manage and check that Numbers documents are not taking any space in the cloud, delete them if they are.
3. Enable iCloud syncing for Numbers on your mobile device and launch the App.
4. If Numbers now opens properly, start to add back documents from your desktop one at a time (or in small groups if you have many). -
I am in the process of replacing my hard drive and have run into a problem. I reinstalled OSX 10.6.3 using a DVD I bought off Amazon. That went well and I then restored my hard drive using an external and Time Machine.
After that, things still looked good but I couldn't log in to my user (and access my MacBook) because my password wasn't working even though my hint was correct. Yes, I am POSITIVE my password was correct; I even tried a couple other passwords to humor myself. I then gave up and decided to restart the computer.
Now my MacBook won't start up at all. It goes o a gray screen with a still loading symbol for a couple minutes and then goes to a solid light blue screen. I've tried starting up while holding command+R and I tied holding just command and neither worked.
Did I install the wrong OSX because I didn't use the same DVD that came with the laptop? Is there something wrong with my hard drive already?
Please help =[You probably bought the wrong RAM that has different pin assignments, so it won't fit in the slot. Return it.
I bought 4GB Memory online for my MacBook, so I could get it to run twice as fast.
Doubling the memory does not make your computer run twice as fast. -
I've tried the maintenance tool for places.sqlite, and even deleting the file so firefox rebuilds it. But no joy. New version is 36.0.1. Can't remember old one, but it was quite old. Five json files available, but none work
I've found my own answer.
I copied the bookmark .json file to a USB stick. Carried it to another PC which still had an old Firefox, and successfully read it there. The exported as HTML and carried it back & imported it.
If anybody else with this problem isn't lucky enough to have another PC with an old Firefox, I'm willing to bet you could just install Chrome instead & it would read it happily.
