Problem using mac os setup asst

My new macbook is not allowing me to get started. it keeps reverting to the welcome page after all the data is entered. Any help how to get up and running?

Reinstall the system. Put your install DVD in boot with the 'C' key held down and run the installer.

Expose Photo Gallery: Uploading Problems Using Mac

Hello All,
First post, sorry to say it's about a problem I'm having. I have a Joomla based website and I'm using the Expose Flash Gallery as an image gallery solution on my photography site: http://www.wakinglifephoto.com/
The plugin works great on the front end, my problem only occurs when managing albums on the backend, which is also based on Adobe's Flash Player.
Whenever I try to upload a photo on my Mac, the process stalls and never completes. If I'm using a Windows PC, everything uploads fine. I've talked with the people who make this gallery plugin and they say it has to do with a bug that is only found in the Mac version of Flash Player.
Is there any type of solution available for this problem, or do I have to wait and hope that it gets fixed in Flash 10.1?
TIA.

The Fascinate has SD card capability, so I would save all my photos to a micro SD card, and then use a reader to transfer them to your computer.

Problem with Mac initial setup

I bought a new Mac mini with a track pad and was not able to get
beyond the second screen. The pointer moved but I could not click
on anything. The track pad section of System Preferences allows you to
select the gestures it will recognize. The single click was disabled.
I used an old mouse to get through setup and then could set the pad
option.
Just a heads up.

Tap to click is not enabled on the startup screens. You have to press hard enough to make the physical click.

Problems using Mac Mini with a Sharp 60" led 1080p

My Mac Mini is connected to a Sharp LED 60 "and I use the VGA input but when I use 1080p resolution, then the text becomes blurred and chopped up. Why does this happen?

I don't know if this will help but doing a search I found that you have to turn sharpness off or down to 0 on the TV for the best display. I have a 40" display and it did the trick for me.

Problem using .Mac account with Mail.

About a week-and-a-half ago, the Mail app started showing the error "Cannot Get Mail: The connection to 'mail.mac.com' failed."
I'm not really sure why it's doing this, seeing as how I didn't change any of the settings or invoke the problem, as far as I can tell. I've tried removing the account on my iPod touch and then syncing to the computer, but that didn't work. Any succession of removing/adding the address again fails.
Anyone sure what the deal is? I mean, if it's something stupidly obvious that I'm just not seeing, feel free to mock me.

I just wiped the whole thing clean and started fresh. Works fine now, oddly enough.

I have a problem with MAC Mail and Mediacom

I have a problem using mac mail with Mediacom. I can recieve messages, but i cannot send messages. Of course the support people at Mediacom can't seem to help me. i have searched threads here and tried some of the things but have had no luck. Please help.

I had the same problem with a relatives macbook on mediacom broadband just today,
Something gets corrupted if you enter the server wrong on the first try and even editing to correct it won't fix it. You must delete the server and add a new one.
To fix it go to mail preferences and click account at the top of the prefs window. At the bottom of the account pane click the outgoing server list and select edit server list. Select your server and hit the - symbol on the left below the list. I then close the prefs, save changes and quit mail. Re-launch Mail and open prefs, select account again and edit outgoing server, click the + at the bottom of the list and add a server, double click the server where it says double click here and type mail.mchsi.com in the box. close the prefs and save changes and you should now be able to send.

Deskjet 3050 J610 Wireless Setup Problem - Thinks I'm using MAC filtering

I just got an HP Deskjet 3050 J610 from my parents, who have never used it. The ink cartridges were still in their wrappers. Trying to set it up tonight, and everything was going well until I tried connecting it to the wireless network.
My router does not have WPS, so I'm having to do this via USB. The software is able to detect my router's SSID, encryption type, and password. However, when trying to connect the printer to the router, it fails. The Wireless Network Test Report claims that it might be because of MAC address filtering. I double checked my router settings, and I am NOT using MAC filtering at all. I have not yet tried rebooting everything (Printer, laptop, router), but I am doubtful that will resolve the issue. For security reasons, I would prefer not to say what security I'm using, but I will say that it IS supported by the printer.
I'm using Windows 7 on an Asus laptop, and my ISP is Verizon Fios.

Hi Manjunath, I spent the last hour on that site. Everything I found was about how to add the printer's MAC address to the router's filter settings. But I repeat, I am NOT using MAC filtering on my router, but the printer thinks I am.
Or rather... THOUGHT I was.
Rebooting the printer and the router helped. Of course, I did both at the same time, so I'm not sure which one was required, or both, but the long and the short of it is, it works now.

Airport setup asst. doesnt work. Is there way to use Windows to add airpor

Airport setup asst. doesnt work. Is there way to use Windows to add airport express to my current linksys network so that my iTunes will play through my stereo?
Previously the air-assit recognized the air-exp unit but kept asking for a password to continue. I tried passwords like admin and public but nothing worked. Then Windows network connections kept trying to connect my laptop to the internet using the air-exp. Don't remember what I did to fix that problem but now my laptop doesn't try using it to connect me to internet anymore.
However, now air-asst. doesn't read the air-exp anymore. Windows network connections DOES read it now but doesn't try to use it anymore to connect me to the internet.
I have a linksys WAP and separate linksys router. If memory serves, when I firt got the air-exp about 6 months ago I could not connect either and Apple tech support had to help me. I think, but not sure, they had me use Windows to add the air-exp to my wireless network. Also if my memory serves me, but not sure, I had to type in either some IP or MAC addresses in order to get the air-exp to connect to my existing network. I DO remember thinking after it was finally working that "Wow, this is definately NOT a plug and play thing." It wasn't very easy to set up.
I lost my laptops wireless connection last week and couldn't connect to my network and had to call linksys tech support. They had me input a new IP and DNS address because somehow my laptop "lost" the previous ones. Since then I have not been able to use my air-exp to connect to my stereo.
I have called Apple tech support but since my 90 days is up they want to charge me $49.95 for up to five days worth of tech support. Which I think is a rip off becau linksys will help you out at anytime for fee but that's a topic for another discussion group. Common Apple, how about a $10 charge for one day of tech support, or even just 15 minutes worth to get my gear working again?
Anyway, if anyone knows of any on-line walkthroughs of how to deal with these airport express set-ups or problems please let me know. Or, of course if anyone can walk me through this that would be even better. THANKS

Thank you for your help.
When I run air-util a window called base station chooser comes up and all the fields are blank. When I push "re-scan" nothing happens. When I push "other" a window pops up asking for IP address and password. I typed in the IP address given to me from Linksys tech and tried to move on but it came back asking me to fill in the password. I tried the default linksys password "admin" but it came back with an error.
Do I hard (factory) reset the air-express by simply pushing the reset button or do I have to hold it in while I plug it in or simply push the button for a certain length of time?
Thanks again.

Problem with Audio MIDI Setup using multiple accounts

I'm having a problem with Audio MIDI Setup recognizing all of the MIDI devices on a G4 Tower with a non-administrator account. The main administrator account has no problem seeing anything, but the non-admin account won't see anything. Does it all have to be added in manually, or is there a preferences file to copy over that will take care of this. Failing that, is it a problem with file permissions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't know whether this of any help, but there's an identifiable issue with AMS and Digital Performer 5 where DP5 simply won't load with AMS setups configured with previous versions of DP. Which is probably irrelevant to your problem, but ...
What I and other DP users have found we have to do is start with a completely new, blank AMS setup, and reconfigure our devices from scratch, and although this was kind of hit and miss and on the fly (don't really understand what the the issue was, exactly), I think the bottom line was if we used the new AMS setup with DP5 before anything else that might cause its data tables to change, we were ok.
So if you can do it, it might be worth setting AMS to a new blank template, then connecting your interfaces, see how far you get. And always make sure you've got the latest drivers of course, though I'm sure you've done that.
Never used Mbox or 410, but I've an Ozonic which I think uses the same M-Audio firewire drivers as the 410, and don't have any problem with that, FWIW.

If the "it" refers to a compressed (zipped) spreadsheet that you downloaded, the ".ods" extension is used by LibreOffice and probably OpenOffice (which are free versions of MS Office) for spreadsheets, which would suggest that wherever you're getting that "Excel" file from has switched to one of those programs. I've tried opening an .ods file from LibreOffice using MS Office 2013 for Windows and it does open though with a warning that some things have been changed. I don't know if Office for Mac can normally open .ods files. But if your need is to just open .ods files, take a look at LibreOffice.

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

I am currently using Firefox Version 1.5.0.12 on my iBook G4 with Mac OS X Version 10.3.9. I have problems using Facebook. What can I do?

I am currently using Firefox Version 1.5.0.12 on my iBook G4 with Mac OS X Version 10.3.9. I have problems using Facebook. I cannot confirm friend requests or view messages in the inbox for instance. What can I do?

Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever release for Mac OSX 10.3.9 and earlier versions, but that may not work any better because some large websites are blocking those older browsers or dropping support for older browsers like IE6 & earlier, and Firefox 2 & earlier due to security issues.
Using Safari on those websites ''(not enough total users for websites to be concerned about)'', or installing a new version of MacOSX are two solutions; or getting a new computer.

I'm using mac with the newest operating system (snow leopard 10.6.7). since I've updated to Firefox 4 It doesn't display Hebrew fonts- I didn't have any problems with it before the upgrade and in safari I don't have this problem.

Quicken 2007 for Intel (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks) for $15:

It will input your Quicken PPC data file directly if it was Quicken 2005 through 2007. If older you need Quicken 2006 or 2007 PPC first to convert your data file; and this update must be done BEFORE you upgrade to Mavericks:

Snow Leopard Server: 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only)
This solution allows you to run your Photoshop Elements in Mavericks concurrently with Filemaker Pro PPC. Mavericks is a free download.
