Problems upgrading library after downloading an update
I downloaded an update for my iPhoto (4.0.3), and the next time i tried to open iPhoto it said i needed to upgrade my library.... i said okay, and it started, but seemed to get stuck at some point.... the estimated time started going up and up until it was saying like 30 hours, and my whole computer slowed down until i had to force quit iPhoto. I've tried a few more times since and the same thing happened. I have about 5000 photos in my library.
Any help would be much appreciated! Why is it getting stuck?!
It sounds like you tried to apply an iPhoto 5 updater. There have been reports that, while the update will not succeed, it sometimes does change something in the iPhoto Library folder before it fails to find an appropriate version to update.
You will need to quit iPhoto and move the existing iPhoto Library to the desktop. Start iPhoto and have it create a new library, then quit iPhoto again. What that does is create a library that's compatible with your version of iPhoto.
Next, drag the old iPhoto Library folder from the desktop, and drop it inside the newly created iPhoto Library folder. You'll then have your original iPhoto Library folder inside the new iPhoto Library folder.
Finally, start iPhoto while holding the option+shift keys to force iPhoto to rebuild the library. Don't release them until you're prompted to confirm the intent to rebuild. Click "Yes", then click "Save".
You'll have to reconstruct albums and keyword associations.

Have an OS X 10.9.4 and having problems with iPhoto library after installing iPhoto version 9.5.1 This has locked the iPhoto Library on a locked disk. Any idea on how we unlock this disk?
First, if you've moved the iPhoto library to an external drive, make sure that drive is mounted by opening it in the Finder.
The issue can be caused by sharing the photo library on a network (against Apple's advice) or by opening it in more than one local user account at the same time. You may be able to clear the error by logging out or restarting the computer. If not, do as follows.
Quit iPhoto if it's running, locally or on any file-sharing client. Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Usually it's in the Pictures folder, but you may have moved it somewhere else. Right-click or control-click the library icon and select
Show Package Contents
from the popup menu. In the folder that opens, navigate to
Database/apdb/lockfile.pid
and move that file, if it exists, to the Trash. Close the Finder window.

Problem with texting after downloading iOS7 update.
I downloaded the iOS7 update yesterday. Now I am receiving my wife's texts. Both of our phones share her Apple ID. This wasn't happening before. Anyone know how to prevent my phone (iPhone5) from receiving her texts (iPhone4s)? Thanks.
Went to settings>messages>send & receive and unchecked my wife's email address. Not sure why that selection was defaulted to after the update, but unchecking it solved the problem.

Problem w/video after downloading Itunes update.
After updating my computer with I-tunes 8....I find now that I cannot watch my music videos nor preview them on the Itunes store. What happens when I try is I get a light blue and green static that actually looks pretty neat accept I'd prefer to be watching my intended video. Anybody encounter something similar and know how to correct whatever it is that has gone wrong??? My initial thought process is that it has something to do with QuickTime but knowing exactly what I don't have a clue. Thank you for any suggestions any of you may have.
The same thing happened to me before i re-imaged my computer. Your pop-up blocker may not be allowing for the video to play. You would be able to tell this immediately, however, because a box would pop up. If a box pops up, click allow. If no box pops up then u may have to do a number of things. First, make sure you have installed all of the updates to both the Adobe Flash Player and the QuickTime player. This is most likely the cause of the problem. For me, this was the problem. If your videos still do not play, try reinstalling itunes. Your computer should run the videos now! I hope i helped! ~Shanman~

Problems extracting LR5.6 upgrade files after download
Hello!
I've just completed installing a LR5 upgrade from a DVD.
After this, I downloaded the latest upgrade which i this case was is LR5.6.
My problem is that I am unable to extract the files in the upgrade.
I just get a message from the installer telling me that there is a problem extracting some files and to check that there is enough memory on my computer. The message also suggest to check that I am authourized to use the target folder for the extraction.
I've reinstalled LR5, I've tryed downloading a new upgradefolder several times, I've tryed extracting it in different folders.
There is enough memory and my computer system meets the requirements. (I'am the administrator of course.)
Anybody has a solution?
Thanks in advance!
Felix
PS below is an image of the message I get when trying to extract files (in swedish though).Hello Jeff!
And thanks for your answer.
Yes i've tried extracting/installing both updates (5.5 and 5.6). The outcome was the same in both cases. Same message with 5.6 as the one in my screenshot.
There is some information in this but I can't figure out what it is.

Felix2 from your screen shot it appears you are attempting to download and extract the Lightroom 5.5 update/installer. Do you receive the same error downloading the 5.6 update at Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.6? Each update contains the full installer so you do not need to have a previous version of Lightroom installed prior to installing Photoshop Lightroom 5.6.

ITunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution?
iTunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution? And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.
It would help to know versions here. I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed. Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago. If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses. Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

after downloading mozilla update to 16.x.which had a problem when downloading i lost all my home screen details most of these i have resolved.but i have lost my freecorder 4 tool bar settings from my home screen(it still works in i.e.)could you advise how to resolve this concern please.
On the screen on the iPhone does it show a usb cable pointing up to the iTunes synbol?. If it does then your iPhone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored through iTunes on a PC/Mac.
Now in terms of the data you lost, would you know if you backed it up to iTunes/iCloud?. Did you sync data with iCloud at all? e.g. contacts, calendars. -

3-d is no longer enabled after downloading Yosemeti update. Can I re-enable?
3-d is no longer enabled after downloading Yosemeti update. Can I re-enable? I was able to 3-d layers prior to this new update. I have changed any drivers an know the mac is capable. Dunno how under systems it is disabled.
Any computer tech would know that it is likely not firefox causing this issue, but an incompatibility with a new ebay sign-in page and the firefox browser. The browser only does what the code on the page tells it to. I have seen the issue with other sites that work with IE or with Safari, but not firefox and some that work with firefox and IE but not Safari, it is the web developer's fault for the page that isn't working, not your browser.
---It is possible that it is a firefox issue, but it is most likely an issue with the webpage itself. I do not have a problem signing into ebay at all with firefox. -

Why do I have two icons for iMovie '11 after downloading the update from the App Store? Previously I had iMovie '09.
Do you see two versions of iMovie in your Application folder?
You can drag the icons out of the dock and then drag what you want back to the dock from the Application folder.

Don't worry about it, if you don't know what it is, chances are that you don't know how to unlock it. Have you try the basic, a different USB port and/or cable? Have you disabled your antivirus and firewall before running PCC?
