Logic 8 will only open with old XS Key-PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi all,
I have just installed logic studio (upgrade) on my new mac.
For some reason it needs my logic 6 xs key to start up every time.
I have used it on my other macbook pro with no problems at all!
I have tried the directions given here;
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1106
But it still doesn't work.
Any suggestions???
Is it a 10.5 issue??? It has always worked on my older macbook pro with 10.4!

So if you have followed that article completely and it still doesn't work you may have an issue with your file system. Delete your current System ID and then use Disk Utility (Located in /Applications/Utilities) to Repair Permissions on your system volume and also use the Verify Disk feature as well to determine whether the volume needs repairing. For info on how to repair an OS X volume see here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
Once permissions are repaired and or volume verified/repaired try serializing Logic again.
Also if you did not, be sure that the software gets installed using the installation discs and not dragged over from another system. Also here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2375 is instructions on reinstalling Logic Pro if the above steps do not resolve your issue. See bottom of article.
Cheers

How do I upload a photo/graphic to facebook from an album other than my camera roll? It will only open camera roll!!! HELP!!

How do I upload a photo/graphic to facebook from an album other than my camera roll? It will only open camera roll!!! HELP!!

Kudos! I too am frustrated about this change to my personal page. I also know Apple is not to blame. I also manage a page for the company I work for using pages app. And that app is UN affected and I can choose from any photo stored on my phone (4). I do keep them seperate so I can keep a professional aspect for the company. But if you want your personal page linked to your public or work page, this maybe the work around your looking for.
Hope this helps. Now go like my work page please. Copies Unlimited in Milan TN.

I am trying to buy an app (Aperture). I don't see a "buy" icon in the app store. If I go to Apple site, there is a buy icon but when I click it, I get a dialogue box saying the link needs to be opened with an application. Please help. Thanks.

Hi ...
Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try purchasing Aperture.

You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select

You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

7.0 will not open today!!! Please help

any idea why photoshop 7.0 will not open? it opens every morning for us but today it scrolls through the plug ins and goes back to desk top? now we are dead in the water.....need help!

If it worked yesterday and you have not made any changes in software or hardware I would reset the preferences.
This is a really old program, but if it is same as new ones click on photoshop icon to start and IMMEDIATELY hold down the Ctrl + Alt + Shift keys. You will get a reset window if done properly.
It is a little tricky so keep trying until you get the reset window.

TS1702 how do I find apps for the Ipod version 3.1.3 for the Ipod touch in Itunes?! Is there no more apps for the first gen Ipod? I've tried and tried and googled and can't find a single app that will install on this old Ipod. Please help!

I recently had an Ipod first gen with Ios 3.1.3 fixed and am in need of finding games for my son to play, but I cannot for the life of me find any games or any apps that can be installed on this Ipod! every time I download something and try to install it, Itunes keeps telling me that the app requires a newer Ios! There isn't any new Ios version for this ipod that I can find. Itunes won't install any newer version of Ios, and no new apps can be found that can be installed. Please help me.

iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.

PB will only start in target disc mode, please help

On normal start up, I get the "You need to restart your computer......" message with start symbol behind the writing. every time I try to restart the same thing happens. I've tried all the keys on start up tricks and the only ones that work are option/startup where I can choose Hard Drive, OS Disc, or Hardware tools. If I choose Hard Drive, it goes back to the kernal panic screen with "you need to .....". If I choose OS Disc, it goes to a light gray screen with the apple symbol in the middle and just stays there (also does this if I try to startup holding C with startup disc). If I choose Hardware Tools, it lets me test the hard drive and everything checks out fine but when I restart back to the "You need to restart.....". It will also startup in target disc mode hooked up to my iMac. All of my apps and files were there so I transfered everything, whew! I can then insert the startup disc into the PB and it comes up on my iMac in target disc mode. I then try to open and reinstall OS 10.4 but it tells me I have to restart to start the process and I can't do this in target disc mode. I just ant to be able to erase everything on my PB and reinstall OS 10.4 with the PB start discs. Is this possible? thanks....
J.R.

Seems to me you have made all the right conclusions yourself: your HDD checks out fine, you were able to retrieve all your other files in Target mode, so it must be some corrupt OS files.
You just need to startup from your 10.4 install CD#1. To do this, just put the cd ready in its slot, push the power button while pushing the C key at the same time, and gently push in the CD whenever the system is ready (hold the C key while doing this and for as long as needed to hear the PB starting up from CD). If this works, you'll be duly prompted for the rest of the install process.
Before restoring your backup, it may be a good idea to restart in target mode and recheck the hard drive in Disc Utility or preferably Techtool (run a surface analysis to make sure the disc has no bad blocks). If you find any bad blocks, discard the harddisc: it will have caused your OS to be corrupt, and is not to be trusted anymore.
Good luck!

Macbook Pro 15" will only boot up in Safe Mode - Please help!

My Macbook Pro will not boot up normally. It goes past the screen with the apple and the wheel and then just stays white. Also on the screen there are little rectangular blocks going across diagonally. In Safe Mode, it boots up but with little square blocks going across the screen. Can anyone help please?

Firstly, see this article: Mac OS X- What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? and this one: Gray screen appears during startup.
Secondly, try the following:
Delete caches to resolve some startup problems:
Boot into single-user mode. After startup is completed you will be in command line mode and should see a prompt with a cursor positioned after it. At the prompt enter the following then press RETURN after each commandline:
/sbin/fsck -fy
If you receive a message that says "***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****" then re-run the command until you receive a message that says "** The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OK." If you re-run the command more than seven times and do not get the OK message, then the drive cannot be repaired this way.
If you were successful then enter:
/sbin/mount -uw /
rm -rf /System/Library/Caches/*
rm -rf /Library/Caches/*
reboot
I suggest you print out the above to be sure you do not make any errors when entering the commands. When in single-user mode you have 'root' access, so it's important that you not make any mistakes.
Lastly, reinstall Snow Leopard if the above doesn't help. This will not erase the drive.

Hi Juliea,
I think the file association for PDF is not correct. Instead of double clicking the file to open, Please try below mentioned
right click on the file and select open with..
Select Choose Default Program
Select Adobe Reader from the list(If it is not in the list then navigate C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader and select AcroRd32.exe)
Remember to select the check box"Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"

Verity Credit Union site will not open with the new Firefox. How can I get the old Firefox back?

I want old Firefox back. My credit union, Verity, will not open with the new version of Firefox I have downloaded.

@glennhaste, the public pages I visited seem identical in IE8 and Fx10, but you may be referring to a part of the site that requires logging in (impossible for non-customers to view).
Since the problem is so recent, can you recall any changes you made in Firefox, or are you aware of any changes your CU made on its site?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
Firefox > Preferences > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
While viewing a page on the site, "right-click" and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies" (''Sorry, I don't know how you right-click on a Mac'')
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Dvd disc tray wont open with the side button, will only open when I click eject

I have a new HP g7-2270us laptop. The dvd disc tray will only open if I do it internally with the eject dvd file. Is the dvd drive bead or is there a simple fix to make the button on the disc drive open it up????????

Hi,
My best advice, if you're still within the time frame allowed, would be to return the machine to the retailer you purchased it from and get a replacement machine.
If you're outside of the time this is possible, you contact HP and arrange to have the notebook repaired under warranty.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
Regards,
DP-K
