My messages aren't showing. I open up my messages but the screen is blank an then closes itself.
I sent my friend about 120 pictures through iMessage but when I went to open up another text my messages aren't showing. The screen is completely blank and then the app shuts itself down. Do I need to reset my phone in order to get my messages to show?
See this Apple note on booting and video issues.

I have the same problem.
I think there's a problem with the update server. Try again later. -

When I open messages in my iPod touch the screen is black, I have no access to the keyboard and then after 10 secs, the screen bounces back to the home screen, why is this?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings.Messages>Send and Receive and sign out of the account and sign back in.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -

I never reboot. I have a lot of windoes open. Every week or two I'll open the lid to get to work and the display comes on then goes off and I can't do anything. The keyboard backlight is on. If I close the lid the white pilot light on the front right edge is on. I have not been able to guess a key combination to get it back. The only thing I found is to press and hold the power key to force a reboot. When it comes back up it usually sends a trouble report.MikeGMIT wrote:
The report is incomprehensible. Is it saved somewhere? If so I can grab it and post it here.
Inside your Utilites you will see the Console.app. Click on it. Reports will be there.
Yes I have tried a short press of the power button. I've opened and closed and done short presses and waited several minutes for something to happen afer each action.
Since I can't see the screen I can't close/quit applications.
It opens closes, sleeps wakes just fine several times a day, and for days in a row. Then one day it exhibits this bad behavior.
Thanks for asking some questions and offering suggestions!! -
HT5622 I show an update needed but the screen is blank. Any solutions?
Need help in trying to get my updates to show. Only a blank page shows up.
It's a glitch that's been going on for several days. You can wait it out, or if you go into your purchased tab you can then update your apps manually.

iTunes successfully installs in my computer but the moment I open it, a message will appear showing that microsoft has stopped working and the program will close. What do I do?
Let's first try updating your QuickTime Player to the most recent version. Does that help with the iTunes launch errors?

It's happened to me before as well. Try holding both lock(top right) and home buttons simultaneously until u see a slight flash of wight then just reboot it normally. If that doesn't work try restoring your device from itunes

Why is Messages no longer showing up under my iCloud account in the "Internet Accounts" window? I recently deleted it and added it back, but then Messages went away. On my iPhone, it shows me logged in under my iCloud account and my cell phone number is synced with that iCloud account. Yet, on my Mac it isn't showing up.
I've already tried removing and adding the iCloud back several times.The Messages app is supposed to grab the information from the "Internet Accounts." Messages has always included the ability to separately add Google, Yahoo, AOL, or other messages accounts; but, it has always grabbed the iCloud account information from the "Internet Accounts" section. Except for now, when the Messages option has disappeared from the iCloud account under "Internet Accounts."

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the most current edition of Adobe Reader (11.9), including the patch. When I open a PDF file, the screen is first grey, then viewable, but then the message "Adobe Reader has stopped working" comes up. How do I remedy this?
RR,
One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
and another similar website,
http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error-occurred-pdf2dtp-fi le-recovery/
As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

Failing a full recovery, hopefully you have one or more earlier versions and/or bits of artwork saved before it happened. -
Trying to reinstall Design Premium 5.5 on a Mac OSX 10.7.5 - once downloaded to my computer it will not install due to error message "Install" can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.
Thanksno, redownload using a different browser from prodesigntools.com
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: Download Adobe CS5.5 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant / Manager) | ProDesignTools
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version. -
When I close my lid to make the computer sleep and I open it back up again when I am ready to use it the screen turns on and then turns black. I have to press random keys to make the screen show again. Any help is greatly appreciated!
First, before you sleep your MBP, make sure you either scroll down the Apple menu to sleep your machine, or do it even more easily by pressing CMD-OPTION - DiskDrive (upper right hand corner of your keyboard). I wouldn't just close your machine to let it sleep.
It's hard to know exactly what's happening, but here are a few pointers.
1. Go to System Preferences/Energy Saver and make sure you've set a sleep time of more than two or three minutes. Your machine may be trying to sleep too early. In the same preferences, set Computer Sleep to more than ten minutes, to make sure you don't get an unintentional sleep.
2. Take a look for third-party applications you might have installed.
Post here with your results!
