Quicktime files won't launch - ask for an obsolete version of the QT app
I just bought a MacBook Pro (OSX 7.3), copied everything over to it, including apps, from my Powerbook G4 (non intel; OSX 10.5.8). Now none of the mp3s on my MacBook will open when I click on them; the error message states that I must have Quicktime 7.2 which is not on this machine (and indeed it's not). The MP3s will however launch from within the Quicktime 10.1 app that came in when I updated the MacBook Pro software.
So - how can I convince my MacBook to make Quicktime 10.1 my default mp3 player app (and not QT 7.2)?
That worked - many thanks.
But the Get Info drop-down selection box was still headed by "Quicktime" with the old logo (v7.2) as default. In the list of alternative apps below was Quicktime with the new logo (v10.1). I made that the new default as you suggested, so all's well.
But evidently my computer still thinks v 7.2 is around (and v 7.1 and 7.6) - maybe in a library somewhere - since they're still appearing as choices in that Get Info dropdown menu.
No problem I suppose, but curious.

IPod touch won't launch, asks for iTunes sync after it has already setup.
Asked for update and will not restore. IOS 4.2.1 is installed. We have already set it up and used the iPod, but recently we have turned it off and it's asking for us to sync it with iTunes. Just like the setup was. We did what it asked but nothing will show up in iTunes indicating that the iPod is connected. The iPod was first connected to another PC, but was recently connected to current PC. We have tried bipassing this setup, but have failed to work around it. If anyone could help, that would be great
It sounds like this should fix your problem:

How do you set up iTC for two Different versions of the same app?
I have been reading the iTC Developer Guide searching for the answer to this question, but so far I have found nothing that would help. I plan on having a Lite and a Pro version of my app, and I may also have an iPad version as well.
I have seen some iPhone icons which differentiate these app by using a slightly different icon for the Lite and Pro versions, but how these are submitted to the app store is what I would like to know. And, for the sake of clarity, they will be priced differently as well.
Thanks!Have you read the app store guidelines yet?
App Store Review Guidelines:
http://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/approval/guidelines.html
Don't go on what you've seen in the store - for every example you spot, there are hundreds that didn't make it in.
As well, Apple is tightening up on reviews, etc.
Loads of discussion on this in the iOS Dev Forums, BTW -

In this case just uninstalling illustrator and reinstalling Ai will solve the issue.

I have Adobe reader installed. However, I am unable to open some files because it is asking for Adobe's approval to open the files. How do I do this please?
That message is NOT from Adobe, and has nothing to do with Adobe's approval for anything.
Quite the opposite: Adobe Reader is NOT YET RUNNING, Adobe aren't involved. Some other app or program is putting out that message. Have you tried giving that permission? -
I uninstalled itunes, downloaded new version and the setup file won't launch. I'm running Windows Vista 64-bit. Can anyone help?

My iPad won't stop asking for my Apple ID no matter what I do. What do I do?
My iPad won't stop asking for my appl no matter what I do. I've tried resetting but I can't even look for waiting apps, because it won't stop asking.
Did you check if you are still logged in with your info in Settings/iTunes and AppStore/AppleID?
If yes, Did you try to log out, reset the iPad, and log in again with your Apple ID? -

Indesign suddenly asking for serial number and rejecting the one I have
Hi,
This question is very similar to that of act_writ from 19/10/2014 ("Sudden trouble opening InDesign - serial number rejected")
- I am asking again because that question was not answered.
We have InDesign CS6 on a Mac, purchased last year with a student license. It always worked and opened the program without asking for a login. All of a sudden yesterday it asked for a login and the serial number, but it rejects the serial number I have received when purchasing the product.
I am still a student so it should not have expired.
Any help would be appreciated - I am pretty desperate as the customer support agent I contacted could not help me.
Thanks!A serial should be ok if it was ok.
Exceptions are: If the serial was used several times in a way which is causing doubts of its legal use, then will Adobe deactivate it (e.g. use of several serial in connection with illegal copies) or when Adobe shuts down the activation server as it was done with CS2, but the user could replace it with a common serial.
Normal, with a running program it will never ask for a serial, only if the user clean up his computer and delete some folder and files where activation files are hidden. But in that case the serial should be inserted with the next start or in the wort scenario you might uninstall all programs and install them again to be able to enter the serial.
For non English (including UK and US and International) versions users the serial can also fail when the localisation files are deleted.
Maybe that you exchange the serial with some other number or a number from another product which was bundled? -
I am from Brazil, and i have an iphone 5. Since it was purchased the 3G/4G data signal doesn't work. I made contact with people in Apple from Brazil and they told me I had to ask for your support to unlock the 3G/4G data signal. How do I have to proceed to unlock this feature in my iphone?
I would appreciate if you can help me.
Thanks!Greetings alex.bonifacio! I'm very sorry that you're having connection problems with your iPhone 5. While would love to help in any way I can, the device must at least be on an active line of service with Verizon Wireless in order for me to be able to make any changes. I must therefore urge you to contact your local wireless carrier for your equipment options. Good luck and thanks!

I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?
If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information. Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

I have Adobe Photoshop CS4 and have just upgraded my Mac operating system to Yosemite with the newest version of Java 2014 running. When I try to access Photoshop from Bridge or directly open it asks for a Legacy Version of Java 6. As I am a pensioner I cannot afford an upgrade does anyone know of a work-around for this problem?
Hi Daddyfred,
CS4 Photoshop has not been tested on Yosemite. But still you can try the Java 6 update using the below link.
