Only Netflix can answer that question.
Perhaps Is microsoft Silverlight plug-in safe...: Apple Support Communities will provide you with some hope.

    I assume all is rendered at 100% and you Mixed Down (in the Sequence Menu).
    It sounds like it may be one of those quirky things like a key stroke character used in the file name that OSX doesn't like.

  • Hi, I was just wondering how much it would cost to repair the rear camera of my iPhone 4s. I dropped it and it won't work and I hear something rattling inside when I shake it. How much would it cost to fix?

    If you have a tool, try removing the battery cover and chech out. Some times the camera pin may have been misplaced. If so, you can fix it yourself.

  • Hi, just wondering how do i get rid of viruses on my mac pro?! as soon as i go on the internet other windows pops up and the whole screen starts to play up, like it starts to click things that i didn't even click?! help please

    hi i was just wondering how do i get rid of viruses?! Everytime i go on safari my computer goes all weird and starts to pop up with other internet sites without me even typing it in. My arrow also starts to click on all things that i didn't even click on and opens up apps that i didn't want?!

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be applicable.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable.
    2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check for unknown or forgotten input devices. Disconnect any USB input devices that you aren't using.
    3. Boot in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you reboot as usual, stop here and post your results. If you can't boot in safe mode, do the same. If you booted in safe mode and there was no change, go on to the next step.
    4. Reset the System Management Controller.
    5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    6. A swollen battery in a MacBook Pro or Air can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

  • Hi apple, I have the new ipad with retina display, i have however cracked the screen pretty badly. I was just wondering how much it is to replace this ipad with the same one. It is a 32gig. Thanks

    Hi apple,
    I have the new ipad (4th gen) with retina display. Yesterday I cracked the screen pretty badly. I was just wondering how much it is to replace it with the same ipad. I have the 32gig ipad with wifi.
    Thanks

    The iPad will be $329 AUD if replaced via postage service or $309 AUD if replaced at an Apple Store. Yes they will give you the replacement and take your old iPad so I would suggest if you can back it up to iTunes so that you can restore the back up to the replacement.

  • Hi ! Just wondering how to connect the iPad remotely to the TV that has wifi

    You can mirror the iPad wirelessly with a TV through an Apple TV 2 connected to the same wirelessly network.

  • I was just wondering how old do you have to be to finance a macbook pro

    hi i was just wondering how old do you have to be to finance a macbook pro, im in high school and i im always doing projects with my friend, and since im always at their house i wanted to get a macbook so i can bring what i wroute and others stuff to their house. Also how much money would it cost to finance it.

    Forget about financing a Mac.
    If you can't afford to pay big boy cash up front + AppleCare + tax + backup drives + third party software + OS X annual upgrades + annual third party software upgrades + case + adapters + this and that... etc.
    Then you really shouldn't be getting one because money is already too tight for you and there is a lot of other costs besides the sticker price that can even exceed the sticker price.
    I've paid over $10,000 over 10 years for Mac's and associated software and hardware.
    My Windows XP Dell Tower using friend used the same $600 machine over that same time frame, perhaps to $1000, paid for a few changes, RAM upgrades etc., but nothing even close to what I have spent on Mac's.
    Mac's are for the rich.
    A Windows 7 laptop will do you just fine for $400 at any office store and perform just the same as a 13" MacBookPro costing $1500 + $400 in AppleCare and Tax, they are almost idential performance wise except for the name and the case.
    If you want to 3D game, get a $250 PlayStation 3 or Xbox. Boom your done for under $1000
    If you finance, then your looking at spending $3000 for a $1500 computer that can be lost or stolen, some jerk spills a liquid on the keyboard and fries it in seconds.
    You still have to pay off the $3000 loan.

  • How can i change the user on FaceTime? im trying to do this on a iMac

    how can i change the user on FaceTime? im trying to do this on a iMac

    I'm using an iMac with OSX 10.6.8.  The proceedure on your system is probably similar.
    Get the Facetime window up, and go to Facetime preferences.  Click on "account,"  you'll see a view account option that will prompt you to sign in with your Apple id and password.  From there you can make the changes that you want.

  • I can stream movies on my iMac.  How can I stream these same movies on my TV via Apple TV?

    I can stream movies on my iMac.  How can I stream these same movies on my TV via Apple TV?

    Hello, it seems that you can mirror your Mac desktop on your Apple TV if you have a very recent Mac and OSX Mountain Lion. The other alternative is the very efficient third party software called Air Parrot (http://airparrot.com/)
    I've just started using it with my Mabook pro Mid 2010 running on Mountain Lion. It works perfectly well and only costs 10$... Hope it can help

  • Hi i lost my iphone so was just wondering how do i actually go about using find my iphone

    hi i lost my iphone and was wondering how to use the ap find my iphone i have read all about it and it only sais how tyo download it not actually use it when u hav lost it

    The "Find My iPhone" app is used to locate/track your device. As noted above, having the app on a device does not turn on the service - you have to specifically turn the service within Settings. Without having done that, you can't find your device.

  • Hello! Getting Adobe Creative for our office, just wondering how many users we can assign under one license? If that person leaves, is the user transferable?

     

    Thanks so much, Deto.
    I'm a bit concerned because we have a lot of transitions on our teams and once we leave the office, our computers are swiped. I'm worried that if we make the purchase and the two people we assign to use the software leave that we'll be left with no one who can use the Suite. Any suggestions for how to maneuver around that?

  • Im new to apple products and just recently purchased a macbook pro, im just wondering how to keep it as best protected as possible?

    I want to know how to keep my pro as best protected as possible from any type of threats

    Just in case you meant software threats:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac will NOT be infected by a virus, it may have other security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.
    You may find this User Tip on Viruses, Trojan Detection and Removal, as well as general Internet Security and Privacy, useful: The User Tip seeks to offer guidance on the main security threats and how to avoid them.
