Numbers does not open with the main user after installing mountain lion. It works flawlessly when I use the second account on my mac. What got corrupted in the admin-account, something in the user-library? How can I fix it? I´m kinda desperate... (the same happens with the other iWork-Apps!)
Looking forward to hearing from somebody with a littlemore expertise than me, Chris

you can remove preferences files by navigating to the Preferences folder for your user as follows:
0) Quit ALL iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers)
1) from the Finder select the menu item "Go > Go To Folder…".  This will bring up a dialog:
2) enter the path "~/Library/Preferences" (no double quotes)
3) find the files:
com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist
com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist
com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
and move these to the trash.  I would NOT empty until later.
4) restart Numbers

  • When trying to back up my iPhone 4 I get this error message "ITunes cannot backup the iPhone because the backup is corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone." How can I fix this?

    This has been happening to me for months now and it's started to annoy me. I have Windows 7 installed and have seriously tried everything to fix this, deleting old back ups, cheacking my firewall, unintalling and reinstalling itunes, deleting pictures that may be corrupt. I just plugged my phone into a USB connected to my sisters MacBook and it backed up perfectly! Is this something wrong with my computer?

    Even if deleted all the backups shown in iTunes Preferences>Devices, check the actual backup folder on your computer to be sure there isn't one still there that needs to be deleted.  You will find them at one of the following locations:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista/7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

    One thing to slow it down: low ink. Please check ink cartridges and replace if required.

  • When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    This usually caused by a customised hosts file.
    These need to be the only entries in your /etc/hosts file:-
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
    ::1             localhost
    fe80::1%lo0     localhost
    Remove anything below these entries, then try and reconnect with GC. Once GC starts properly you can put the extra entries back in your hosts file, GC should start normally afterwards.

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

    Go into settings/privacy/Facebook and disable the button.
    Open your Facebook app and login.
    Once logged in go back to that button and enable.
    You may have to re-enter your password but the error will be gone.
    Good luck.

    I can't turn on my IPAD, not even with holding the sleep bottom, how can i star my IPad again

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Problem with iPad back up after installing Mountain Lion.

    Since installing Mountain Lion, the camera roll on my iPad does not download pictures.  It's a first generation iPad.  Is it not compatible with Mountain Lion or is there something I can do?

    Searching communities I found an Apple page Image Capture.  So I opened it with my iPad connected and the pictures were imported.  I still don't know whether I will have to do this every time or whether it has unblocked it!

  • Firefox does not open with the tabs I had open when I use the quit and save function. Firefox opens with my home page only. how to fix?

    When I use the "Save and Quit" function it has no effect. The next time I open Firefox it goes to my home page only.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == 3 days ago

    This is not a solution, nor a work-around. The only thing this points out is where the problem lies. Settings are meant to be used in all sessions, barring exceptions and the fact that Firefox asks if you'd rather SAVE and then quit, makes it an exception. The user has elected to skip the clear browsing history step.
    However, if the settings are permanently changed as you suggest, then the history will always be remembered for eternity when Firefox is closed. You then have to manually clear your history first at every session before closing.
    Older versions of Firefox never behaved in such manner and recognized that the Save and Quit superseded the setting to Clear History.

  • Firefox gives me an error and will not connect to the internet. How can I fix this?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled but Firefox will still not connect. It gives me the inital start error message of "not being able to connect" etc. I am able to use IE and there is no connectivity issues at all. How do I fix this? I really prefer Firfox!

    AHA!!! I had the same problem with no answer so I started doing some research. Apparently people with McAfee and Norton were having similar problems so I started there. I opened my McAfee and went into the Web and Email Protection. Click on Firewalls; click on Program Permissions. Scroll down to find Firefox. If you're having the same problem I did, it will say blocked. Change to allow. That should solve it!! I wonder if MS paid McAfee!!?? Hope it helps!
