Apple has been having a number of server issues today and this may be related to that. Give it some time and try again later.

In the About Firefox Help window what does, "You are currently on the default update channel" mean?

Firefox cannot perform an automatic update when running as a normal user on my system (it just spins when connecting to the update server) so normally when it notifies me of an update I run the application as root, open the About Firefox dialog and select update Firefox. 
I was recently notified of an update to Firefox 7.0.1 (or 7.1 not positive) so I ran Firefox as root and opened the About Firefox box. 
This time instead of showing me "An update is available. Click here to update." it displayed "You are currently on the '''default''' update channel". 
What does this mean? 
 
Thanks, 
Adam.

Mine says "the '''release''' update channel" on Windows. I believe this helps you know whether Firefox is checking for new official releases or new beta test releases. I don't know what '''default''' update channel indicates.
A web search indicates that '''default''' means no updates. To change your update channel, check out this article:

I am trying to watch videos online, but a message saying "You are currently browsing the web with Google Chrome..."

I have a MacBook Pro, which I just bought in August.
When I try to watch videos on my computer, a message pops up saying, "You are currently browsing the web with Google Chrome and your Video Player might be outdated." I know it's a pop up, but I don't know how to get rid of it and watch videos on my computer. I did look it up online and I downloaded the TSM Adware Removal Tool, which removed some adware files. Then I also downloaded Bitdefender Virus Scanner from the app store to scan my entire computer - nothing came up.
Please help me solve this problem. Thanks.

The update alerts are fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they're almost certainly the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked, but you should assume that the router is at fault until proven otherwise.
The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions.

When I try to update Firefox I get a window saying it can't be loaded because I do not have all the necessary permissions. What does this mean and what do I do?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

You need to contact iTunes support and send an email by following the link I posted.
Simply going there does nothing.

Backup failed . Make sure your computer and backup drive are on the same network. What does this mean?

Backup Failed. Comment is "Make sure your computer and backup disc are on the sme network and the backup disc is turned on". What does this mean?

Just back from the dentist.
Did a hard reset and when i asked time capsule to do a backup it tells
me
"Time Machine could not complete the backup. The backup disk image is already in use"
I think I misunderstand how this back up device works.
Is it to be plugged into the back of the router with an ethernet cable?
I have the Time capsule sitting beside my Imac.
The cable modem and router are in another room
I am new at this stuff. Thank you for patience and help

HT1452 Repair permissions says Group 0 should be group 80...what does this mean?

What does this mean...Group 0 should be 80?
Some say Group 80 should be 0?

It just means the item is assigned to the wrong owner. 0 is the OS, 80 is the admin user. So the item's permissions were improperly assigned to the OS as the owner rather than the admin account.

TS1425 I cannot eject my ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc. It states some of the files are being used by other applications. What does this mean? How can I get it to eject?

I cannot eject my new ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc due, it states, to open files being used by another application. What does this mean? How can I get my ipod to eject?

If it's a one-time "glitch," you can try restarting your computer with the iPod still connected. Try ejecting again after the restart.
If the problem recurs, you may have a process running (other than iTunes) that is accessing the iPod's storage. When connected, the iPod's "disk" is like other mounted volumes. This process may be some type of utility that continously monitors your mounted volumes for security reasons, such as to prevent access by malware.
If you know of such a program that you have running in the background, there may be a setting to exclude your iPod's disk.

BBM 1 Current Conversation: Empty ???What does this mean

Hi,
I have the following displayed in my BBM:
"1 Current Conversation:
     (three mini yellow smilies grouped together) Empty"
When I open the current conversation, this is what is displayed:
Conversation with S.B. started.
S.B. was already here.
S.B. has left the conversation.
There is no one left in this conversation.
I still have S.B. listed in my contact list and status is reported as Active.
I have never seen this before and can not seem to find any explanation to help me understand what this means and why it is being displayed.
I would appreciate any light that can be shed on this!
Thank you,
KG

it simply means the other party ended the chat convo on their side. The chat convo is empty now. you can delete the convo and start another if you want.
