My desktop fried in a power surge--- I bought a new one---I cannot register my CS2 even though I have the activation code

Awesome! You're welcome!
Well, I'm not exactly sure. I suppose they may know if you have or have not purchased it since you are probably signed in...Or they figure it's an old enough program, and few enough people know about the serial number, that they don't care too much.

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

Hi MrsMoosie,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Safari puts a copy of downloads onto my desktop even though i have the downloads folder specified as the save downloads to location in Safari preferences. How can I stop this from happening?

I dont' want to have to keep manually moving each download off of the desktop. The downloads folder is selected as the location where i would like downloads to go. They are downloaded there but an additional copy keeps showing up on my desktop. Help!

What are dmgs? I downloaded Microsoft Silverlight and the icon showed up on my desktop. I tried moving it to trash but it wanted to delete the whole program instead of just a shortcut. I opened the general tab in Finder's preferences and the only options that were selected to show up on desktop were External Drives and Cds, Dvds, and Ipods. THanks so much!

The camera cannot be turned on or cannot be turned off even though I pressed the ON/OFF(Power) button.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are many reasons this problem can happen:
Make sure the battery is charging.
If you press the ON/OFF(Power)button too quickly, the camera may not be turned on.
If it is still not turning on or off, press and hold the ON/OFF(Power) button for at least 7 seconds.

My Power Mac G4 Graphite works well but I cannot update it as I do not have the Mac OS Jaguar nor do I know the administrator's password. Anyway to get over this?

I would have like to buy more ram memory as there is only one 256 Mo SDRAM in it but if I cannot get around the password hurdle, it's not going to be worth.
Can I buy an old Mac Os Jaguar somewhere?

Hello Serge, I think this works on 10.2.x also...

Starts up like the first time you buy a new Mac, but after filling in all that info again, you should have access to the computer and the other Users & files will still be there... give the new User a different name than an existing one.

Wrong! Check out KB Article: Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test
Personally, I would not be running no test. Apple has a 90 day warranty on all their repairs. Return your computer to the repair shop but this time.......

I renamed a power point a file and now when I try to open it it keeps giving me the error code -108. If I try to open or copy it say: The operation can't be completed because one or more required items can't be found. (Error code -43). What do I do?

I have lightroom 5 on my desktop, I have downloaded it on my new laptop, but I do no have the registration code from my update. My last one is from lightroom4, how do i get the registration code?

I own lightroom 5 on my desktop, I have downloaded it on my new laptop, but I do not have the registration code from my update. The code is from lightroom4. How do it get the number so I can register it on my laptop?

If you own Lightroom 5, you received a serial number for it, that is what you want to use.
If you don't have it any more (not a good idea, by the way), you should be able to find it via: Find your serial number quickly

How can i delete an app on my desktop that says it won't delete because it's still open, even though i have done force quit numerous times.

How can i delete an app on my desktop that says it won't delete because it's still open, even though i have done force quit numerous times? I even deleted it's files in my Finder and it just won't go away. Help please!! TIA

Restart the computer then delete it.
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper 2.0.1
    2. AppDelete 3.2.6
    3. Automaton 1.50
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash 1.8.2
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

Try setting the Energy Saver to "never" and uncheck "put hard disks to sleep when possible". You can allow the screen to sleep after any suitable time.
Hope that helps. Regards.

Is iCloud active on your desktop?
Turn it off on both devices then turn it back on on both devices.

How do I transfer files from my old Power Mac Mini to my new one?

Oops...thought I had to write the question in the above spot.
Question: How do I transfer my files from my old Power Mac Mini to my new Intel based Mac Mini? From what I read, I needed a 40/80 cable, which I bought. However, I only have one monitor.
(I tried to copy files onto a blank dvd, but it wouldn't format and kept spitting the disk out) (?)

Anna,
Here is a discussion on the same topic that will save some typing:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15374867#15374867
Jolly makes a good point about screen sharing.
I prefer the firewire approach just because I have had more problems with ethernet connections than with firewire connections. Both options work, firewire has just been easier for me when the operating system on the machines are different. Read the options and post back if you would like additional coaching.

TS2972 I am using Apple TV to wirelessly access photos from a folder on my desktop computer, but when I view them on my TV, some of the photos are upside down and sideways, even though I have flipped, cropped them, and saved them on my desktop. Help!

But they sometimes show up sideways or uspided down when viewing them on my tv, even thogh I have flipped and saved them in my desktop folder. How can I view them in the same format as I have them saved in my computer?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try editing them in a different photo program.

After desktop crashed, how can I synch Firefox on my new one

I had Firefox synch on my desktop and 2 androids. The desktop crashed and had to be reformatted. How can I download my synch to Firefox on a new drive? I can log onto synch but can't download it, and I don't have a 2nd computer that's running it. The androids have been synched but are of no use for this purpose.

Hi!
You need the Recovery Key (sometimes known as Sync Key) and to follow these instructions: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20sync%20Firefox%20settings%20between%20computers#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
If, as you say, your Android devices are logged you can get the Recovery Key from them with this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/aboutsynckey/
