My trackpad seems to be stuck in a clicked position.
HELP ME
Did you follow the instructions in the link I provided in my first reply?
Also try triple clicking the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn Zoom off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there.

Trackpad stuck in "click" position
I came back to my Macbook Pro (13" mid-2012) with the mouse part of the trackpad stuck in the "click" position. It's not currently clicking/dragging anything, but I am unable to use the trackpad like normal; instead I have to tap the pad. Nothing was spilled on it, and there is no debris stuck in the crack. Unfortunately I'm in a country far from an Genius Bars- is there anything I can do to fix it? Thanks!
Problem eventually gets worse after lengthy usage. I'm noticing that the system is also hot when it gets like this. After putting it to sleep for a bit and coming back it wirks fine again. Overheating seems to be a likely cause and I'm sad to think about leaving my machine with Apple for however long it takes to fix it. Seems that I have little choice, especially after reading the many posts here about similar trackpad issues.
Quality control feels like it's slipping at Apple.

Macbook Air trackpad seems to be a little sticky, no damage or spill.
I haven't spilled anything or damaged my laptop, at all. It has been a little over a year since I purchased the Macbook Air, but I think my warranty or free service repairs or whatever have just recently expired. My trackpad seems to be sticky, like it is stuck down the slightest bit or something. It still works fine when I move my finger around on it, but the clicking is just a little difficult and irritating (especially right clicking). I was wondering if and how I could fix this. I have learned that if I click it fairly hard repeatedly it will work perfectly, but after a very short period of time it will go back to being seemingly slightly stuck down or sticky. Also, as the days pass, it is getting worse. Any help is greatly appreciated! I just don't know why this would happen if it has been treated with care. Thanks!

I was trying to install a coupon printer software from a website and it seems to be stuck. It has been installing it for hours. When I click on the installer and try to quit it won't let me. Any suggestions on how I can stop this?
Click the Apple icon in the upper left corner and choose Force Quit. Look for the item that says Not Responding and force quit it.

I tried to burn a DVD using iDVD after upgrading to Maverick, first time I tried after upgrading to Maverick a few weeks ago. It seems to get stuck at encoding menu stage and not doing anything. Does anyone else have the same problem?
I did not have a DVD handy to burn but I have just created a small 2 minute video and created a Disk Image and also a VIDEO_TS folder, the encoding worked correctly, so it works with some items.
You may get a better responce in the iDVD forum.

My apple trackpad seems to have a mind of its own, it will be fine then it will go wild and start moving all on its own, clicking and going from left to right in spastic motions, what do i do, is it a virus or dust or what?
Does your "System Preferences > Sharing" look like this (no sharing options have check marks)?

How do I get my itunes to recognize my account, it seems to be stuck on my friend account even when my ID show up as sign in, only when I try to update an App, that my friend account appear. I try to reset it on the computer and the phone itself, but no luck. Please advise
Many thanks lllaass,
The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.
Cheers

The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs > http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading... -
I have been downloading Mountain Lion for MAC for over 4 hrs. and it seems to be stuck about 2/3 of the way through. I have a I mac that is only 2 yrs old has 8 GB memory and I updated all software, checked utilitie for any disc repairs andbacked up everything before I started this process. Can someone tell me what to do Right now the version is OSX 10.6.8.
Let it go... these DL's take forever, depending on the spped of your connection and the traffic on the servers.
If by morning it is still sitting there restart and the DL should pick up from where it left off. -

Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?
With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

i have a classic that seems to be stuck in restore mode, the screen says "do not disconnect'' and i can't restore using itunes. i have tried resetting it and still no good, what can i do to fix this problem ?
Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

My ipod nano (7th gen) seems to be stuck in a loop of turning itself on and off, tried rebooting it but after a while it just starts it again?
Hi altofts,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can try resetting and restoring your iPod nano to see if that helps with the restart loop:
