New Playbook First Use Error on OS update to version 2.1.0.1055
I just bought a new BB Playbook on Amazon and I'm having trouble on my first use, the os update always fail. The download was complete and installation reaches 100% but in the end it says Update failed and requires a restart. I have done this several times already and I have no luck! I am using a wifi connection at home which is pretty decent. Can anyone help me please, I don't know what else to do as this is my first tablet. I would appreciate any help from you guys.
If you install the Desktop Software on a PC you can use that to update your PlayBook.
While switched off, connect your PlayBook to your PC and start the Desktop Manager. Next, turn on your PlayBook.
The Desktop Manager should prompt you to update the PlayBook. Click on Update and follow the instructions.
Good luck.

Cannot open new tabs in same window since FF update to version 15.0
This morning, FF updated to version 15.0 when I opened it. Now, All links open in new windows instead of tabs like I have it set to do (yes, I've already checked).
Also, I tried to go to about:config and NOTHING HAPPENS. The address bar is not working. I cannot even get the addon page to open so I can view my plugins/addons.
Also, when I try to close one of the windows, the whole browser closes. HELP ME.
This version is BROKEN.
I need this fixed NOW. I have work to do and this is truly messing up my productivity.So no help will be given on this??? Guess I need to switch browsers, then. PERMANENTLY.

We used Face Time last night for the first time after updating our phones recently to IOS 6; then discovered our App Store is empty of all apps and is no longer functional. How can this be fixed?

Error message when downloading latest version
Any idea why I am getting error messages when updating the version of iTunes?
:-( Same error message. "Errors occured white installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools> Download Only and try installing manually."
That's odd. That's normally a message you get from Apple Software Update, not one that you get when you installer using an iTunes64Setup.exe downloaded from the Apple website.
Can you walk us through what happens when you download and run the installer from this link?

Sign in failed - Unknown server error (-2) when trying to sign in to new playbook
I get the message "Sign in failed - Unknown server error (-2)" when I try to login to the Blackberry ID page of a new playbook during initial setup. This prevents me from continuing and using my device. A similar error message appears when I tap "Forgot password?" which is An unknown error has occured. Please try again (-2)
I have tried what others have done when they have unknown error (-6) which is turn off playbook and plug into desktop manager then update to reflash, but I continue to get the same error.
I know my BB ID username and password are correct because I can login to the web with them. Not sure what to do next.Just to test the simple things first, did you try to sign in using another credential?
If only yours fails, then is a RIM issue, otherwise is indeed your Playbook failure.

I have a brand new mini mac and a new apple TV. Both have been updated and can see my movies in itunes. I can use Netflix and stream music. I have tried to use my old laptop and it streams video fine. But my new computer only see a spinning circle.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. -
hai i am using firefox 3.6.When right clicking on a link and a window opens up, i want it to ask me "Open Link in New tab" first, not second.
First, you are using a version of Firefox that is very old and outdated. Please update to at least Firefox 3.6.27, or more preferably, update to Firefox 10.0.2. There are lots of bug fixes, security improvements, and much improved performance in Firefox 10.
After you do that, try seeing if you are still having a problem. If you are, is this that when you try to select "Open in a new tab" it opens in a new window instead? Or something else? -
Have a first gen iPad with 4.3 IOS. Can't download version 5.1 because iTunes 11.1 need to be downloaded. Cannot download version of iTunes. " errors occured while installing updates. if the problem persists choose tools>download only and try installing manually". This is as far as I can get. Can't find tools to manually download. When I try to reset to factory settings, I get an error also.
Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

How to skip the update during start up of my new playbook
Hi... I just purchased my a new playbook and it is very frustrating... and disappointing... cause I need it wifi to get it started... After i managed to go to a cafe and get Wifi it was even more frustrating... since I had to update the software which is nearly 300MB... which I could not download since it was slow and getting disconnected... I wish blackberry gave smaller updates... or an option to skip the update... cause it 7 days since I have got my new playbook and yet not been able to use it... I would not recommend my friends to go for it since its been disappointing is there any other way to get it started or easier way to update the software... since its frustrating having it and not being able to use it.. Please help me with the problem Regards Rahul
The update process is to ensure you have the latest OS on it.
I dont know of a way to get around it at this time.

Made a new iTunes address, and added new payment details, old apps won't update because my old signin pops up! Even tho in settings on on first page it's my new name? How can I remove the old signin name even if it takes all apps paid and free with it!! Don't care if I have to lose all previous apps just don't want to be hassled with updates!
You can't all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase/download it.

I changed my AppleID a long time ago to an email that I no longer use and I have updates for apps that I can't update because my old email is filled in to where i sign in and it wont let me change it to my new one???
The problem with those two apps is that they are supposed to be in your Apple ID and you didn't set up the Mac properly/completely when you got it.
You might try deleteing them and using OS X Recovery to install them again.

Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing. I am using a brand new IMAC, I have 16GB RAM recently updated as it was running slow with 8GB and lots of hardrive space. When it crashes, i lose all my presents and it changes my preferences, it also fails to save or produce a recovered file despite settings asking it to do so every 5 mins now. When i try to report the problem, it says it has found an issue and gives me a link to a solution....but wont let me click on the link.... PLEASE HELP! It's killing my productivity.
If the crash started right after you added RAM, it could be a bad Ram dimm. You can try this - change the amount of RAM in Photoshop to 4G, this should stop Photoshop from using the higher ram. If it doesn't crash, it's probably the ram. Or run a diagnostic app. You don't say when it crashes, what you're doing when it crashes - it there a pattern? Did it ever work on this computer? Did it work on your previous computer? Without a lot of data, it could be related to the new computer... What OS version? Did you recently update it? Have you updated Photoshop to the most recent update?
Do you have any plug-ins loaded? Try restarting Photoshop, and immediately press & hold the shfit key to turn off plug-ins. -
my friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?
You can't. Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID. In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer. And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

I got this iphone from a guy and everytime i tried to update the applications stored in this phone it keeps asking me the password that the guy used to use, even thou i created a new apple ID of my own and updated the account of icloud and everything in this iphone with the new apple ID, it still asks me the password of the account that the guy used to use whenever i tried to update the applications, and i cant find the guy who gave me this iphone...wt should i do???
Apps are permanently tied to the AppleID that downloaded them and cannot be transferred to another. Best thing to do is delete the apps and download those you want or need under your AppleID.
