Mini goes directly to "IHEART RADIO launching. Please Wait" That one hour ago. Nothing happens. No keyboard input seems possible. Any suggestions?
I turned on the MAC, Until today, everything worked fine (slower with the new OS). But this morning, I got "IHEART RADIO launching. Please wait" in the middle of the screen as soon as power was on. No apple logo, or password log in. That was one hour ago. I've unplugged the **** thing, waited, plugged it in again, still no change. Unable to use Mini at this time. Any ideas?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I have iPad mini. Siri's microphone icon comes on. I make request, absolutely nothing happens, never has since day one. What is wrong?
Hello,
I'm sorry you're running into problems with your system. It sounds like you might have multiple issues going on, but to dig deeper we're going to need more specifics. Here's a good post that describes what we'll need and how to generate crash logs:
How to report a crash with Flash Player
In addition, you might want to consider either reverting back to a previous version of Flash Player, see this page for archived versions, or installing our latest Flash Player 11 RC release.
I'm not sure what is going on with your pdf files, but I don't believe it's Flash Player related. Can you take a screenshot of the blank window that is appearing? That might give us some clues on what's going on.
Thanks,

After launching iDVD I select Magic DVD. Pinwheel spins and then aborts program. Any suggestions?
Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder.
3 - launch IDVD and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

Have you repaired permissions and restarted your computer after installing ML? Checked your printer settings in System Preferences?
If Software Update does not list any updated drivers for your model printer, you should go to the printer's manufacturer website and download the drivers from there and/or contact their tech support to determine if your printer is compatible w/ML.
Read the various Knowledge Base ML printing articles. Here are a few to get you started:
OS X Mountain Lion: If the software for your printer can’t be found
OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot a USB printer
OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot an AirPort printer
If none of the above work, post back w/the model of your printer and how it's connected to your computer. USB? Wireless? -
Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to settings-privacy-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?
when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

Error message: "Firefox closed unexpectedly while starting" "Firefox is now running in safe mode"

I haven't dug nearly this deep, but I have the same issue. I just migrated yesterday, and this behavior started immediately. Mac Mail isn't completely offline on my Mac. (I have a tilde not an exclamation mark) I can send from it, but all incoming mail goes to my phone. It's maddening!
I too have both @me.com and @mac.com addresses

I have windows 7 home installed. I am using a Mac Book Pro. When i click the icon I can see the hour glass looking to launch but the nothing happens.
See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
