Mac OS X downloads 7.0.1 but doesn't show Icon for transfer to apps

Download is confirmed, but saved file does not get to Firefox Icon for transfer to applications. No icon is displayed after long wait.

After fooling around with several approaches, I opened the file in the download folder; that brought up just the 7.0.1 icon alone, without the app icon shown.
I then dragged it to the apps folder in finder and saw the Firefox icon pop up in the dock. "About Firefox" in that icon verified it was 7.0.1 !
One nice thing about this approach is that the previous version of Firefox is still in the apps folder is still in the apps folder, so it was not replaced and is available if it ever is preferred.
Thanks cor-el for your help !

  • Itunes music downloaded to iPad 2 but doesn't show up under "music" app

    We have a lot of music in iTunes on the Mac, most of which is from CDs we own. We synced to new iPad 2 and it shows they all went in, but can't get any of the music to show. the "music" button says nothing is there. the "Itunes" button only takes us to the store.

    First of all - songs do go to the Music app for playing on the iPad - not iTunes. Look in the Music app. If it's not there - this may help ....
    When you sync the iPad with iTunes - you have to select the music to sync within the Music Tab of iTunes. the Sync Music Heading must be checked and the albums, artists, playlists, etc must be selected as well in order to sync.
    These kb articles should be of some help. It works the same way on the iPad.

    Hi adtsalmon,
    You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • HT4539 Why I can download from iCloud on 1 iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

    I can download from iCloud to one iPod but not the other.  It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

    I'm not sure what you mean by the "music library" - are you looking in the Music app?  Or the iTunes app (which is not the one to be looking in)?

    ITune download continues to process but doesn't complete. What could be the issue

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

    SSIs are parsed by the server.  You're probably not doing anything wrong, you simply need to upload the files to your remote server and look at the pages on-line.
    If you want to preview local files, you'll need to install a local testing server on your machine. Get one of the following servers for your OS and follow the installation instructions.

  • ISight works fine in iChat but doesn't show up in Yahoo Messenger nor Skype

    Hello, I was given an iSight webcam that works fine in iChat, but doesn't show up in Yahoo Messenger nor Skype, which are the IM programs I use…
    I search on the Apple Support site a driver to download, but there is only an updater (iSight Updater 1.0.3) which doesn't run on Tiger... Any help please ?? Thx

    You probably don't need it, but the Tiger "iSight Updater" is located in the \System\Library\CoreServices\iSight Updaters\iSight Updater folder.
    (You must look manually because SpotLight does not find it.)
    Double click the "iSight Updater" there to run the Firmware update manually.
    Some options for other readers:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10084429&#10084429
    iSight "Product Revision Level" in your Mac's System Profiler shows the installed firmware version for external (Firewire) iSight.
    Firmware 1.0.3 Update offers only "Improved audio performance". It does NOT enable audio or any other function, so that is NOT your problem with Skype or YMM. Search or post in their dedicated help/discussions for best and quickest help with those specific, non-Apple apps.
    Regardless of whether System Profiler utility shows Firewire iSight's Firmware (Product) level of 1.0.2 or 1.0.3, external iSight ought to work. You can test your external iSight using the suggestions on this linked page:

  • My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder

    My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder and I can't get it to sync with iCal.  Any ideas?  I've had trouble in the past with cameras and other devices not showing up in Finder and I don't know what is wrong!  I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8 which is quite old but this is its main problem...
    Thanks!

    The sync is 2 way. If you created items in the calendar on the phone, however, BEFORE you set up the sync relationship, those items are stored in the calendar on the phone only.
    Go into the calendar and tap the "Calendars" button in the upper left. You will see lists of all the calendars. On my iPhone are those that live exclusively on the phone. You will also see From My Mac (or something similar) as well as any that are synced with Exchange accounts, iCloud, etc.
    Now go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Scroll down to Calendars and make sure the Default Calendar is set to the correct calendar.  I don't believe there is any easy way to move all your entries from the local calendar to the one that syncs with iCal, but you can go into each entry and specify which calendar it belongs to.

  • HT204135 Since I upgraded to OS X 10.8 my Canon MP480 printer scanner prints OK but the Solutions Menu icon for scanning is crashing every time I try to scan. Any solutions? Thanx

    Since I upgraded to OS X 10.8 my Canon MP480 printer scanner prints OK but the Solutions Menu icon for scanning is crashing every time I try to scan. Any solutions?

    I had to contact Canon Tech Support and had to re load the driver softwear using the OS X 10.7 choice, since the 10.8 choice is not there yet. Also had to download the opener and after 45 minutes I had solved the problem. The steps are too many to go into all the details but that is the genral idea. It should work for others.
