Just downloaded app and now screen is blank. How do I close the app with the key board?

I just downloaded a app. I opened it and the screen went blank. I don't know how to close the app so I can access my mac. I have tried shutting it down and re-starting it. That didn't work. So how do I  shut the app down with the keyboard?

    Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    I hate the new downloads-in-a-tab scheme. This was an unnecessary change in my book (if it aint broke, don't "fix it").
    So in order to get it back, I performed the about:config browser.download.useToolkitUI change, but now all I get is a blank download window that pops up every time I download something.
    Is there something else that I need to do? I've checked the change and it was saved, but it didn't resolve my issue as much as it just caused me a new issue.

  • Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

    I recently made the same mistake.  The thing to do is download the new Quicken Essentials for MAC.  After you install the new version follow the instructions on how to transfer your old files.  There is a way, it just takes a little time and, if I remember correctly, it takes the info from your quicken backup files. Hopefully you had auto back up on and your files are intact.  I didn't and reconstruction was a bear but entirely possible.  The new Quicken is quite different but seems to work quite well.  Good luck.

    Hi Jackson,
    Since you have already done a restore of your iPhone, I would suggest that you now try restoring your iPhone to factory settings, set it up again and test before you restore your content. This article describes the process -
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Note - It is important that you follow this stop:
    Use iTunes to back up your device and transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I just downloaded Mavericks and now my AutoCAD 2012 won't open. What do I do?

    I just downloaded Mavericks and now my AutoCAD 2012 won't open. What do I do?

    Autocad 2012 is NOT Mavericks compatble.
    So, you either need to find and pay for an upgrade AutoCad 2013 which is compatible with OS X Mavericks or pay to upgrade to AutoCad 2014.
    If you have a cloned backup of your previous system before upgrading to Mavericks, it would have been easy to revert back to your previous OS X version.
    If you don't have a previous backup, your only option, now, is to create a backup of your system and important data , now, to an external hard drive. Once you have a backup, you need to purchase and clean install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion (if you haven't purchase Mt. Lion already).
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6377Z/A/os-x-mountain-lion
    AutoCad 2012 is compatble with OS X 10.8. You'll have to reinstall all of your applications including AutoCad.

  • I just downloaded FF4 and now the "SEARCH" tab located at the center of my home page isn't functional. I unisntalled and reinstalled but the result is the same.

    Question
    I just downloaded FF4 and now the "SEARCH" tab located at the center of my home page isn't functional. I uninstalled and reinstalled but the result is the same.

    I think what I did was right clicked on the toolbar when I went to the tab and properties to find out the name of it. I then opened the extensions and add-ons and found what it was there (I don't remember the extension)., You will find the mess involves the homepage tab you have. Click on your tool bar for customization and put the home page away. This doesn't remove it but it will stop bing from showing up. Instead, my tabs now go to a Google page but I can't put in a homepage. Instead I bookmarked Google to my menu bar and when I open a tab I just click that! Cheaper than a trip to a computer vet.
    The only option you will have is to remove google, but if you do, you loose all your goodies. Though I did not try this myself, I fear saving your tabs,bookmarks , etc. will store with it, whatever this bing thing is. Hope this helps

  • I just downloaded Yosemite and all my iPhotos have disappeared! I tried importing them from the photo library but it said there wasn't enough space on my hard drive which is rubbish, because they were there before. How do I get them back to iPhoto?

    I just downloaded Yosemite and all my iPhotos have disappeared! I tried importing them from the photo library but it said there wasn't enough space on my hard drive which is rubbish, because they were there before. How do I get them back to iPhoto?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT4528 Just installed iOS7 on my iphone 4.  How do you close your apps, so they do not run battery down so fast?

    Just installed iOS7 on my iphone 4.  Everything is completely different....  How do I close open apps at the end of the day, so the battery does not run down as fast? It was very easy before, but doesn't work the same way now.  Help

    Thank you for your assistance.  I watched the tutorial and it also helped me.  I am sure there will be a lot of questions in the future as many of us update.  So far all my apps seem to be working fine, so I am fine with it.  This too could change.  Thanks for your help.

  • Just downloaded Yosemite and now the swipe feature on my mouse does not work. Why?

    Just downloaded the new OS onto my iMAC and now the "swipe" feature on my mouse does not work, i.e. I can't go back and forth between web  pages.  Is this a function of the new OS?

    What kind of mouse do you have? USB? Have you tried to plug it in - try all the USB ports (maybe there is a problem with one). It should automatically detect it.

  • I just downloaded Photoshop and now I can not find the icon or program to upen it

    Help not sure how to open photoshop that I just downloaded

    What operating system Lynne?  If Windows it will be there under  Start > All programs but only if it installed OK.
    Was this the Photography Bundle deal?  As far as I know, that installs via the Creative Cloud Desktop application, that has the following icon
    If you have that icon on your desktop, open it > click on Apps and see if Photoshop is listed and has a green tick and the words 'Up to Date' next to it.   If that is all OK, then Photoshop is installed.
    [EDIT]  Ahhh too late.  You have it sorted.  (I got a call from my wife to help with some curtains half way through typing the post )

  • Just downloaded yosemite and now cannot connect with wi-fi and can no longer scan from my HP all in one

    after download a message said that " Flip for Mac " is not compatible and was moved to " Incompatible software folder ". Same for my Belkin Router monitor.
    And then today I tried to scan a photograph to iPhoto and it would not scan even though I was able to update iPhoto with no problems. Has anyone out there experienced these problems and if so is there a fix. Thanks

    I would try running the HP Print Diagnostic Utility. Go to http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloa​dIndex?softwareitem=mp-91788-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&​...= and see what part fails.
    The PDU checks the connectivity, spooler condition, online status, device manager, print queue, ports, driver, conflicts, and default printer. 
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • Just downloaded upgrade and now can't get firefox to open at all. Please advise

    The computer keeps telling me to reaboot and I keep doing that. I can't even take the program off my computer so I can redownload it. Keeps telling to to reboot. Please tell me what went wrong and if I will ever be able to use Firefox again.

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and delete the Firefox program folder to remove any leftover files.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Tried to download itunes and now  my iphone does not even work.I have been on the phone with apple for 3 hours and it still won't work.I have a service pack 2 in this land computer and it won't upgrade .I do have the latest verision of itunes.Then we put

    I tried to download itunes to my phone.First it wanted it to download the new itunes.We also updated our Windows xp.I kept coming up can't complete because there was an error when setting up.One time is was error 9 and they tried to help me.I have a laptop with the internet and we tried it there.We were able to get service pack 3 downloaded.So we did upgrade the itunes on the laptop even though I have never put music on there but there is some from someone .I never heard of many of the songs.Any how I did try to download and restore on the laptop and then come to the land computer and see if the box comes up to restore the  contacts.Well it didn 't work and now my phone won't even turn on .I have no one to call if something happened to me.I am going to the Apple store right off the bat tomorrow morning.I have everything in the box and the phone and reciept and see if they make it work or give me another one.I have to take my sim card again since They gave it back to me.I bet it means I can't sync the photos in the phone.Even with 2 computers and talking with 3 people it still did not work.All because I wanted to download the itunes to my phone.I don't care now if I can just get my phone to work and my contacts are in there.I hope I don't have to buy the ringtones again I bought 4 of them.Any one have this problem and what did you do to fix it?

    The Apple rep tried both those ideas and both failed. The rep was connected to my computer so she
    could see my screen and show me exactly what to do. My iPhone (not ipad) never has synced photos to my computer,
    I have to use explorer to copy and paste or cut and paste them to my PC . It is the syncing back to my iPhone of only the much smaller selected photos that used to sync in itunes but now the itunes sync button cannot be clicked to make that happen. And the reason I only sync back selected photos is that my total PC pictures file is about 40 Gb. Also I find it a lot more useful to have a small number of folders ( no sub-folders of course) so I can quickly locate on my iPhone pictures from different categories such as family, autos, etc. None of this posed any problems for over a year until just recently. I am reading on other threads of many people with other iTunes syncing problems, and wonder now if it is the latest iTunes updates that are causing the problems? While I have tried removing and reinstalling iTunes on my PC, I don't know how or if you can, install a previous version?
