help!
Thanks Bob

Have you checked the hosts file? The hosts file always overrides DNS and every OS has some sort of hosts file. In a mac the hosts file is located in /private/etc/hosts. Check the hosts file and see if there is an entry for facebook pointing to some sort of an ip address. There really should not be anything in the hosts file except for entries pointing to localhost, broadcasthosts or static entries that you purposely put there. If there are any other entries that you did not put there then delete them. After you have done, that you will want to flush dns entries with this command: dscacheutil -flushcache
This site give more details on the hosts file:

I am connected to Orange fr, I can download emails etc but cannot open any webpages. Ipod Touch 5th vers, latest IOS installed, any advice would be most welcome. This is the first time I have had this problem as my Ipod works immediately everywhere else. My laptop does not show this problem using the same orange provider, so its obviously some setting in the Ipod :-(

Try this:
1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar at bottom
2. Hold the Safari app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app
4. Re-launch the app and test
Note: If necessary close all apps in the Task Bar

I have to use NeoOffice to open my documents of many years of work.
Is there an option to organize a corporate complain to Apple to be heard?

We have been doing nothing but for 10 months.
Here is the response:

I have 4 mail icons on my desktop and cannot open any of them. I have no idea how I have done this but want to go back to having one mail icon which opens. What have I done and what should I do?

I am new to mac pro and have managed to set up 4 mail icons on my desk top and none of them open mail. What have I done and how do I get back to having just one in the doc which opens?

HA! It turns out, that an app that I've never used before, became active during a time that I was multitasking and didn't realize it. I didn't notice the effects right away, because my main desktop has a special 3D desktop generator called, bumptop, which covers over any other desktop color or graphic in that area. So it wasn't until I swiped to go to a different desktop, that I noticed the random slideshow being displayed. All fixed now. What a relief.

My updates have frozen. I had 7 aps to update and pressed up date all the bars below each started to move but the no further progress I have rebooted a few times but no luck and I cannot open any of them now.

My updates appeared in the list yesterday. As usual I pressed the update all request. But all have frozen, I have rebooted and deleted memory space but this has not made any difference. The updates included Dropbox, cloud on, hidden objects,calculator, twitter, box for iPod and iPad, the smurfs? Can any one help me please. I now cannot use any of them!
Thank you :(

Thank you all for trying to help.
I have tried all the suggestions, I am unable to view itunes on my IPAD they do not look the same. However I have solved the problem by taking them out of the groups I had them in they updated! Never happended before but hey - i'm not complaining!

Help please - have a Nano and a Shuffle and neither are working! The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to do anything. I've done the reset,it worked the first time but not since. And the shuffle won't sync with my library!

Hi,
I have an iPod shuffle 4th generation and an iPod Nano 5th generation . The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to play or anything. I've done the reset and it worked the first time, but now the only way I can get it to play anything is to shake it and go with the shuffle choices - I can't change volume, song, pause or turn it off.
So, I decided to start using the Shuffle which I was given as a present last year. I've plugged it into my laptop (running windows 8 and newest version of iTunes). It appears in iTunes on the left hand side, but when I click to sync (whether I tick sync all or choose artists) it says synched but has no music. It seems to not be linked to the music library - when I tick synch all songs, next to the "sync music" it says 0 songs?
Any help to fix either would be really appreciated - I'm without any music at the moment and I'm going away this weekend!
Thanks

Hi Bblairjones,
If you are having issues with your Nano and Shuffle, you may want to try the Troubleshooting Assistants on the following page:

Of course there is. There is with any computer system that you connect to the internet or transfers files to and from. When you run Windows on your Mac you increase the chance from zero that you will get a Windows based virus to virtualy the same risk as any other Windows user.
The weaknesses in Windows OS and applications are well trodden by virus and worm malcontents the world over. That doesn't mean that OSX is exempt though. All it will take is once and the entire Mac world will sit up and take notice......

Does Roaming data syncs for the first time when app data are in download and installation process?

Hi,
I will store user Id in "HighPriority" Roaming data. When user will install app in another computer (with the same Microsoft Account), app will get user Id from Roaming data. Then I can implement all data sync over my cloud service.
There are 2 scenarios:
1. User downloads and installs app in another computer, but roaming data syncs/downloads for the first time only after several minutes -
It's bad for my app :(
2. User downloads and installs app in another computer and roaming data syncs/downloads at the same time (then I can get user Id immediately)
- Its great for my app :)
Which scenario is real in practice?

Umm no not that i remember. It just randomly started happening. I reformatted the hard drive for mac (journaled) but it was working fine since i did it until now

Can only connect to enterprise wifi the first time each day, then does not reconnect and got the "Association Failed" error

To save battery, I leave my wifi off when the TP's screen is locked. At home, my TP has no problem reconnecting to wifi after the screen is unlocked. However, at work, which uses enterprise wifi, I can only connect the first time. If I lock the screen and then unlock it (causing the wifi to turn off and on again) then the TP will not reconnect and I would get the "Association failed" error over and over again. If I were to turn the TP off and on again, I would still get the same error. Here's the strange part, if I come in work the next day, it would be able to connect to the wifi. If I were to leave the wifi on all the time, it would not disconnect even if I lock the screen. Now if I were to turn off the wifi and then turn it on again, the TP would not reconnect. So it seems like the TP can only connect the first time each day....very strange...and frustrating.

Scimmia is right. But you AcousticBruce are still very wrong. You claim there were no error messages. Yet after much proding and denial you finally provide small portions of error messages which fully identify the problem and can be found in many other posts in these forums. Yet still, you haven't actually provided full output - instead you paraphrased the output after a couple of "//" symbols.
If you don't give us the actual output we can't help - except in this case the error is so common we could very easily help. So could the wiki page on wpa_supplicant if you had read it, as your problem is explictly listed there in a "NOTE" box. But more importantly if you are reluctant to give us actual output we will not want to help you.
This issue would have been solved instantly if you would have provided the actual output instead of lying about it.
The relevant wiki pages:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/He … er_or_root
And the related forums posts found after just a quick search of that error message that you finally provided:

For the first time, I'm trying to use adobe premiere elements 10 that came with my pc Windows 8. I created a single project, saved it but cannot open it. My pc shows the file I created but I get an error message that says this type file is not supported or the codex is not installed. As a test, I created another very small project and get the same error message, when I try to open it. Pls give me a simple answer, a refund or a phone

mike frischenmeyer
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? And, what video card/graphics card does that computer use?
Is this the first time you are using Premiere Elements 10 or have you worked with it before successfully? There is no easy solution until we
know the details and troubleshoot to determined what caused the problem.
1. Can you open a new project?
2. After you saved/closed the problem project, did you move, delete, or rename any of the files/folder that were related to the source media
for that project?
3. Please review the Adobe document on troubleshooting damaged projects.
Troubleshoot damaged projects | Adobe Premiere Elements
4. What are the steps that you are using to reopen this saved closed project.
a. File Menu/Open Project/Name of Project
b. Other
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next based on your further details and results..
Thank you.

if i bought my ipod touch 32gb in germany where the voltage is 220v and i live in America where the voltage is 110, i will have to wait to get to my home to charge it for first time or I can charge it here and change the voltage of the battery in America?
please i need help, im worried that if I connect my ipod here, it will burn or sometihng bad.

Just connect it to a computer's USB port.
Most wall chargers are dual voltage (110- 220 volts) and only require a plug adopter. Check the wall charger to see if yours is.

You shouldn't lose anything at all under normal circumstances, but you should be proactive and backup your iPad with iCloud (if you use iCloud only) or if you use iTunes, transfer purchases, backup and sync before you update your device.
