My trackpad worked fine before mavericks update.

My trackpad worked fine before mavericks update. Now two finger scrolling doesnt work. I have read numerous things related to this and there has not been a single fix, besides returning it to the apple store. If it worked fine prior to the update, logic dictates the update has messed up drivers. Logic dictates this when it works perfectly under mac 10.7 and not 10.9. Logic dictates it is Mavericks when everyone is complaining about it being Mavericks. Whenever I am in a app that is separate from the finder/desktop it doesn't work (Chrome, Safari, itunes, appstore, etc). To scroll all I can do is use the arrow keys or three finger dragging to highlight down the page. I have read a number of fixes, but none are fixes. A fix entails an update that fixes the driver related issue. Not to remove the battery from the mobo (I have tried this, it doesn't work). Certainly not to go to the Apple store, when it isn't a problem with hardware, but with software. btw, I bought this at Microcenter, not the apple store. This is a Late 2011 15in macbook with 4gb of ram and a 5400rpm 500gb hdd, which is pretty ****** for $2300 (2000 plus 300 extended warranty), I didn't buy this, it was a gift for graduation. Anyways people have told me it was the standard of the time, it was the standard back in 2008/2009. I had a 15in MSI with 4gb of ram and a 1tb 7200rpm drive, and was about $1200. I wish I had not sold it, as it wasn't defective. It had vista though, which was truly apalling, more so than Mavericks. Please fix this apple via software update, if I have to exchange this I am going to be forced to pay about 400 in difference for todays comparable laptop. Not acceptable, when I just bought a tv for someone on Christmas, as I don't have the means. Please get back to me and the rest of your customers asap. btw, this is my first support request ever of you guys. This was an issue with 10.9.1, not 10.9....

This is a bug and it's caused when you swipe between pages with two fingers.
How to fix:
Quit Chrome.
Open System Prefences.
Choose View > Trackpad, or click Trackpad.
Click the More Gestures tab.
Disable "Swipe between pages".
Restart Chrome.
Additional Information
If you own an Apple Magic Mouse, I would also disable the same gesture within the Mouse preferences pane.

I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated.

I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated. Now I can't even remove the program at all. Why is this happening?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I just updated my Mac Mini to latest software, tried updating GarageBand. It downloaded but now it gets stuck downloading the 'essential sounds and loops'. It always worked fine before I updated and would really appreciate some help. Thanks

You mean, MacOS X 10.9.2 and GarageBand 10.0.2?
How far does the download proceed? Do you get an error message?

I have just updated to Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 - I have updated Projects and Events on my external hard drives (off the File menu). It's says under several project 'missing file' - but they were all there working fine before I updated.

I have just updated to Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 - I have updated Projects and Events on my external hard drives (off the File menu). It's says under several projects 'missing file' - but they were all there working fine before I updated. I am working off 2 external drives - not sure if that would make a difference.

After the update each seperate connected drive should now have a seperate Library.
The older Projects and Events folders would have to be at the top level of those drives go be seen and updated.
Were all the necessary Projects and Events in the corrrct place before updating?

TS3581 I recently updated my Iphone 5 to the latest software. Now when I connect to my car audio with the hotwire USB it will not display or play my music. It worked fine before the update. Is there a setting I don't know about with the new software?

I Updated my Iphone 5 and now it will not play or display in my car. I use the apple hotwire to USB to charge and play music in my car. It worked before the update. Is there a setting in the new software that needs adjusting ?

I have a similar problem. Prior to the 7.0.3 update my iPod touch worked properly and I could see the music folders, playlists and music lists. However, after the update it no longer works - I cannot see the playlists, the names are blank.
I do not believe your response properly answers the issue at hand. If the iPod worked properly before the update then it should work properly afterward. With the response and link above it appears it is Apple's stance that it is the radio manufacturer to make the radio work with every update. That is backwards and, in my opinion, irresponsible.
It should be Apples responsibility to make sure that the functionality of the device is the same both before and after an update. If they cannot do that then they should make it easy for the user to downgrade or uninstall the update to regain the previous functionality, at least until Apple can resolve the issue their update created.

Upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 on my IPhone 4 and now IMessage isn't working when it was working fine before the update...thanks a bunch Apple.

Anyone else having this problem?

Yes iMessage was barely working before (resetting network settings is what got it sort of working), but after 7.0.3, it's more broken than ever. I can't send ANY texts to iMessage users, even if iMessage is shut off. I tried resetting, I also tried resetting network settings again, but nothing has helped. It won't let me activate it.
FindMyFriends keeps giving me a prompt to connect to iTunes. And no matter how many time i click OK, it just keeps popping up. I have to try to click my way out of it faster than the prompt appears, or i just get stuck in an endless loop. And with how slow iOS 7 is on an iPhone 4, it's a bit if a challenge.
This is the first time I'm actually ready to start looking at other phones, these problem have been BEYOND frustrating.

After installing Mavericks I can't copy music files to an external music server, worked fine before mavericks

After installing Mavericks, I can't copy or move files to a music server running Vortexbox(Fedora Linux based). I get a cannot perform operation, you do not have permissions for some items. The permission arrow in get info shows I have both read and write permission. I am connecting to the server fine, just can't copy files.

Hey tamckellar,
It sounds like you want to move your iTunes Media folder. The following article outlines how to do so:
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
If your hard drive is nearly full after loading all your music and other media into iTunes, or if you just want to move all those music and media files to another hard drive on your system, here's a way to make the move while retaining all your playlists, ratings, and play history.
Thanks,
Matt M.

I have a 3GS and since I did the IOS6 update my phone won't send pictures via text message. Anyone know how to fix this?

Do you have the Onavo app installed? If so, try removing it.
1. Go to your Settings app -> General -> Profiles
2. Locate the profile called "Onavo"
3. Tap Remove
4. Go back to your home screen and delete the Onavo Extend icon

After getting Firefox 9.0 my emails are extremely hard to open; it worked fine before I updated.

Cursor lags and moves in jerks.
Email opens very slowly, and only after multiple fast clicks.
Impossible to reply to emails.

See if this helps you: [[Firefox has just updated tab shows each time you start Firefox]].
Cheers!

HT1600 After updating my Apple TV software this morning, I now have no sound. It is hooked up to play through my television speakers. Any ideas on how to get sound back? It was working fine before the update.

I have tried re-booting Apple TV as well as the television, etc.

Have you tried adjusting the "Audio Out" and the "Dolby Digital" settings in settings > audio and video? It may be worth trying several combinations of these settings, although typically it is the "Dolby Digital" setting that causes most problems for users.
Also make sure that you have correctly mapped the input port on your sound system to the output, if you are unsure about how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your sound system.
Have you tried playing various content sources (i.e. podcasts, music, iTunes Store video, other video etc), do you have the same problem with all types of content? If you use optical you might also check that you can see a red light at the end of your optical audio cable. Is your optical audio cable plugged straight into your sound system, or does it go through a switch or other device?

How do I make a DVD from the latest version of iMovie? It worked fine before Maverick came out.

I just made my first iMovie in version 10.0 but can not find an export or share command to render it for iDVD. Any ideas?

Every time I try to back up my Macbook Pro with an external hard drive using Time Machine, I receive the error of "the disk does not have enough space". I have a 500GB hard drive and only 120GB Macbook. It worked fine before the latest Maverick's

Every time I try to back up my Macbook Pro with an external hard drive using Time Machine, I receive the error of "the disk does not have enough space". I have a 500GB external hard drive and only 120GB Macbook. It worked fine before the latest Maverick's update. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My guess would be it has created an entirely new backup of your drive when you upgraded to Mavericks.

Peruse the whole site. There is a lot of information there.

Drag and drop to photo shop no longer works after installing Apple "Photos"; It was working fine before the latest Apple update (10.10.3) . what can be done?

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

My trackpad worked fine before mavericks update.
