No matter what I try install the Icon Pops up but won't Open?!
Hi- I have been trying to install Frostwire.. I have had it on my computer before but I deleted it because I thought it was making my computer slow. Now when I download it.. it goes through the whole instilation process the icon comes up in the bottom tool bar but when I go to open it the Icon simply disappears but the file is still on the desk top. That started happening a few days ago..Now I just tried to install my Mac Wireless Mighty Mouse.. and the same thing is happening.. anyone have any idea what could be wrong?!

Help!! I'm in Belize (not a good place to be with an Apple, as international as you may claim to be!) and my computer decided to "quit" thusly:
White screen with a crossed out circle which flickers to the Apple logo sometimes, but won't open. What can I do to open it? (I do have my recently backed up data with me, but no loading discs for my computer.
Hoping there is a solution,
DianaThe make of the disk doesn't really tell us how your data is being backed up onto that disk. Do you know what software it uses?
For example Time Machine copies files every hour in a way that is not bootable, but you can extract those files & get all your data back into a working OS.
Carbon Copy Cloner duplicates a disk in a way that is bootable - it would appear when holding alt at startup so you could use that to boot & inspect the state of the internal disk.
It may also be Seagate's own software that does something different.
Please try recovery mode, if that works you can try repairing the disk in Disk Utility.
OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
If that works, select Disk Utility & see if the internal disk can be repaired in the first aid tab.
Recovery mode can also download OS X & reinstall it, however you really need to know if the backup contains everything before that is attempted, otherwise you may lose data. The OS is also around 5GB so you may have issues if your internet is capped or unstable etc.
P.S.
I have no idea if this is helpful, but there may be help out there…?

Why do I have a black screen with the icon spinning round and won't open?
why do I have a black screen with the icon spinning round and won't open my photos?
Because there is a problem. Want to try fix it?
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I asked a question about deleting deleted emails but after trying to delete all mail, it said no mail but it still keeps reappearing. The mail icon on the main screen says I have thousands of emails. I've rebooted, hit the trash one by one but they still come back! I'm going nuts!
That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

My suppliers e-mail me a copy of my monthly statements which is so much better than using snail mail, but since I have started using Mozilla Firefox, I can't seem to get them to open nor will it allow me to save them to my computer. Do you have any idea why this would do this??
Hi brendalynn6,
Have you looked at the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] Knowledge Base article? There are a couple of different PDF plugins listed in the article. I'd suggest you give those a shot. You might also want to take a look at [[Using the Adobe Reader plugin with Firefox]].
Hopefully this helps! -
I have downloaded some ibooks but when I click on the icon nothing happens - it won't open
I have downloaded some ibooks from iTunes but icons will not open when I click on them. This issue applies to my Windows 7 computers and iPad (3rd Gen) and iPhone 4s.
I can't find any help/support with this issue.iBooks only open in the iBooks app on an iOS device. It is possible that your download was corrupt, in which delete and download again from your purchased history.

Can anyone help please. Am getting fed up
Hey ACE_Design,
Well, after weeks of communications with Adobe (who are
absolutely useless, rude and unhelpful by the way) I fixed the bug.
Go to Add or Remove Programs and uninstall Acer eData
Security Management. Run Dreamweaver. Hey presto. It works.
The eData program is useless and annoying anyway, but I'd
recommend you make sure you're covered by some other security
software instead.
I hope this helps, and good luck!
PS - I have no idea why this works, but it does! -
My Mavericks upgrade crashed my hard drive and I had to reinstall Mountain Lion. Now I cannot get any of the apps that I purchased to download. The icons on the launchpad just say "waiting" no matter what I try. My app store ID is fine. What do I do?
Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
To fix Home folder permissions
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed. -
