Just did the latest system updates, restart & won't boot
just did the latest system updates, and keep on getting grey page, apple logo & spinning icon??
If you read any of the posts about wireless lack of connectivity, I think you will discover that your problem is related to their problems. Some people have Kernal panics immediatley, and if you have a wireless setup and the machine is trying to connect wirelessly, it kernal panics and doesn't continue. If this is not the case, write back so that further troubleshooting can take place. By the way it would help if you posted whether your MacBook was a Core2 duo (Broadcom wireless chipset) or Core Duo (Atheros wireless chipset) in addition to the type of router you're using. This gives technicians info they need to duplicate the problem.

Ever since doing the recommended system update yesterday, my iMac has been e-x-t-r-e-m-e-l-y s-l-o-w. I get a spinning beachball with every mouse click, even just clicking on a red dot to close a window. Any suggestions?
Try Applejack.
Download:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/applejack/
Article on using:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10334620-263.html?tag=mfiredir
It runs in single user mode. After installing (you won't see it in the Applications Folder) hold CMD-S at startup. You will get a black screen with MS-DOS like text. Just follow the prompts: type in "applejack AUTO" and it will run through the following:
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
You can also run tasks selectively and for specific users by typing in "applejack." After running in "AUTO," you can go back and run it again as "applejack," steps 3 & 4 only, for your user.
The first reboot will take much longer than usual, as it rebuilds caches. It may take several restarts to see the benefits. Because of the deep cache cleaning in AUTO mode some applications may tell you they are being opened for the first time.
NOT YET UPDATED FOR LION
(Adapted from post by BDAqua)
Also, try applying the 10.6.8 Combo update.

I just installed the latest software update on my iPhone this weekend (9/22/12), and now I can't get email. I've restarted and closed all my apps to no avail. I'm able to get email on my laptop, so it's not a problem with my provider. Any ideas?
Originally we were getting the error that the phone could not connect. Then, after deleting the account multiple times and re-adding it again, the error message CHANGED to having to log in to Yahoo and authorize.
When we went to Yahoo in a regular browser and logged in there was an alert telling us about connection attempts so it disabled mobile/iphone connectivity. It required that we change our password FIRST.
Then, we went in to Manage Apps and Webpages and saw that iPhone was not there but Facebook was.
After all of this went back to the phone and deleted then re-added the account again and SUCCESS!
It now also shows up on the Yahoo Manage Apps and Webpages.
Hope this helps someone else. Please consider giving me points if it does or like the post.

What is your operating system? Reader version ("latest" means nothing)?
Is this a local or only PDF? If online, in what browser? -

I just downloaded the latest itunes update 11.1 for windows 7 and now when I try to open itunes with the shortcut on my desktop I get this error message: "The item 'itunes.exe' that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly." I can't open itunes at all. Is there anything I can do or is there a problem with the new update?
Start > Programs = Firefox
Does that shortcut work?
If so, delete the current shortcut that is in the Quick Start tray and drag the one that is in Start > Programs down there. -
I just installed the latest security update and now I cannot access iPhoto. I keep getting a message that it quit unexpectedly due to some conflict with the Scene Kit plugin.
I'm using a Macbook Pro Mavericks Version 10.9.5Probably the reboot used to log into the Guest account and then your account again fixed the problem. If often will.

The Itunes and Iphone just did the complete new update addiing on Icloud and new applications. After all was done and it said all was completed - the Icloud icon is not on my iphone screen anywhere nor is it on my computer after I did go to the control panel and set up. I tried repairing the download and it said all was fine. What needs to be done to get this all to work.
Hi there,
Thanks for the reply. I did think that could be the case but then other books would also show up as apps on phone but not counted as an app. Maybe book apps downloaded from the app store work in this way whereas books bought from the ibooks app show in ibooks and not as apps.
I guess that would make sense, it must be because they are books but downloaded from the app store rather than the book store so they are visible as an app but don't actually get counted as an app.
Would you think that's the case too?
Thanks
