MY iPhone has stuck trying t download google Chrome...reset didn't help and I can't find in on search or screen to delete, what next?
my notes on iPhone and iPad don't sink, I am using iCloud as notes for both devices....should they?
You should continue to dry it in rice for a week and change the rice daily.
All you can do is dry the iPod. Turning on the iPod before it is dry can can cause permanent damage.

My iPhone has been trying to download iOS 7
My iPhone has been trying to download the new iOS 7 for over 24 hours now but I can't seem to stop it from trying and restart it.
Thank you, something seems to be happening now and it's actually giving me a time remaining! Thank you ;-)

I am trying to download CS5.5, which I purchased. But I can only find the upgrade software to download. Where is the non-upgrade version of CS5.5???
There is no upgrade version. The serial number that you use dictates whether or not the software is treated as an upgrade. If you purchased it as an upgrade then the serial number you have is an upgrade serial number and that will require you to provide proof that you qualify ro install/use the upgrade.

My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google). Opera and Mozilla Firefox won't load any sites whatsoever. I already did the "Reset Safari" several times, restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete. I virus scanned the computer with Sophos, Avast, and iAntiVirus and it looks clean.
Is iAntiVirus the best virus protection to use for a MacBook?
The best anti-virus protection is your own common sense, and what you already bought and paid for with your Mac. Third party products such as "iAntiVirus" convey no additional benefit, and as you already determined are very capable of causing trouble.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind. -
I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE
You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline. You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done.
If the clip was already in the timeline when you opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip. You don't drag it back to the timeline.
You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect. But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering. One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo. -

Help! I just downloaded a rental movie to my ipad and I can't find it to play it. Any suggestions?
Would someone help me with this? I just downloaded a rental movie onto my ipad and now I can't find it to play it. Thanks.
It belongs in the videos app.
Did you check there? -
Anyone?
Are you aware that you can just load them into the actions panel by going to window>actions, then clicking the four lined square on the panel and choosing Load Actions from the menu? You don't have to put them into the effects panel anymore and there's no deleting mediaDatabase.db3 that way.
If you really need them in the effects panel for some reason (like for add-on tools) you are probably not finding the right library. The library at the top level of your hard drive isn't exactly hidden in recent versions of OS X, but it's very hard to get to it. The easiest way is to go to the finder preferences>sidebar and turn on Show Hard Disks. Then when you open a new finder window your hard drive will be in the list on the left side of the window. Click it and the library you want will be at the top level of results on the right side. But the actions panel is much easier. -
Unable to download Google Chrome on Windows 8.1 / new HP laptop
Hi, I just purchased this new HP laptop TODAY -- and have been trying to download Google Chrome and set Google as my homepage because I have been working with Google products for the last 5 years and it is my preference.
However, in the first instance, I get a message saying I can't download Google Chrome, even though I've verified the download is for Windows 8.1, then it also triggered a virus infection and caused the security software to do a threat scan -- three times!! In trying to simply set Google as my homepage, when I click on the actual 'set up' button, the screen simply freezes.
It's almost as if Yahoo / HP is not allowing me to choose my Browser and search engine....does anyone know how to fix this?? I've never had this happen before.
Thanks!!!
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hello,
Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.
In this particular case, neither HP nor Yahoo prevent the computer from getting Chrome browser. Especially when you mentioned that the security software triggered an alarm, this means that most probably you tried to download a fake copy of the Chrome browser and thanks God the security software prevented it from installing. It is quite common nowadays because this is popular software and fake copies do exist. Sometimes they appear on top of search result in search engines and they do not lead to the official vendor's site but some other server. Additionally, if this is not the case, your computer might also have already been infected by some pest which redirected your traffic to fake Chrome.
There is only one official place to download this product - Google official site/sub-site
Click here => https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html and choose Download Chrome blue button in the middle of the page
Follow the on screen instructions.
Some additional instructions from Google -> https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95346?hl=en
Here are some other instructions how to set up home page in Internet Explorer
http://blog.laptopmag.com/set-blank-browser-home-page
For Google, instead of blank page, you need to enter www.google.com as the page address

Is it safe to download google chrome onto my imac?
Isz it safe for me to download google chrome onto my imac. And can someone help me with Adobe flash and Abode reader, which one should I download and way.
You can install as many web browsers as you like, but you probably don't want them all running at the same time so they don't hog your RAM.
The link I gave you is to the Adobe site, the only safe place to download Flash.
To summarise - if you only used Chrome you wouldn't need a separate installation of Flash and could uninstall it using Adobe Flash Player Install Manager which is located in your Utilities folder.
Of course, if you do uninstall it you wouldn't be able to view Flash content if you decided to use Safari or any other browser that doesn't have Flash built-in.
To stop Flash downloading automatically go to System Preferences>Flash Player and reeview your settings under the Advanced tab. I have mine set to 'Notify me to install updates' - this ensures that you keep up-to-date with Flash, but you should always be wary of what you're installing - don't just update without verifying what you're about to do. -

My PC crashed and I can't find the download email to use in my new PC. Ideas?
I bought & downloaded Adobe XI. My PC crashed and I can't find the download email to use in my new PC. Ideas?
Sorry, I meant to say it was....I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong and I hate their support pages or lack thereof!!! I just want to install my stinking Adobe Acrobat XI that I bought in 2013...I got the serial number from my account. If XI doesn't exist anymore, is Adobe DC what replaces it? How do I upgrade with my serial number? Do I have to pay anything? I don't do anything fancy with Adobe, I just open pdf, print or convert to word. Any help!!!!???

Question: I tried to download google earth to my iphone and its been 6 hours. The icon on my phone shows waiting. I don't think this will finish so I want to delete this icon. I hold down on it until it flashes but will not let you delete. What do I do?
There was a glitch obviously. I recommend a restart. While the phone is powered on, hold the power and home button. Keep them held down while the phone powers down and starts back up don't release till you see the apple logo.

My Firefox ver. 3.6 stopped loading pages of any kind. Even Google or Facebook! I don't know how this happened. May it is because I tried to download a program that didn't even open up.... But I don't know how to make it work. All other browsers work normally, and I'm scanning for viruses even though my anti-virus did not warn me of anything... I tried to download a keygen and this is what happened. I can't figure out what it is. Not a connection problem. I even tried to uninstall an re-install firefox, but still nothing worked.
