Re. update to v.8.0.1, I will update to it when you make it compatible with Copernic Desktop
I have communicated this before and got no answer. I use Copernic Desktop all the time and so do lots of people. It is a top-reviewed 3rd party application. You shouldn't develop a new Firefox version (saying that it should be installed urgently) if it conflicts with such widely used software as Copernic. Telling us that Copernic will be disabled until THEY provide a compatible version is more than a little bit arrogant, and also inconvenient for us your customers.
Why is it Copernic "that has to make it compatible"? Why can't Firefox develop new versions with an eye on compatibility with major 3rd party applications? Was Copernic (and others) advised that Firefox was developing a new version that would be incompatible with them? If so, how far in advance were they advised?
Why is Copernic the one that has to make it compatible? Is it the "big bully in the schoolyard" explanation? (along the lines of the joke "Q: Where does King Kong sit? A: Anywhere he wants.") I'd be careful with that one. Microsoft got in a lot of trouble for bringing out new versions of Windows and IE that were incompatible with their actual or potential competitors. As for timing - however long Firefox has been out their first announcement of it had the "install Firefox 8.0 but we will disable Copernic Desktop when you do" warning with it.

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?
What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two. -
After updating my OS to Yosemite 10.10.1 some of my photos will not display. All of the previews will be there but when I click to open them they open up larger for a second and then the screen goes black and I get a grey apostrophe sign. I updated iPhoto to 9.6 (910.29) and also repaired my permissions. The problem still exists. Can anyone help me? I also have issues with iTunes but that's another story.
According to the link I provided it could still have its logging service running. Did you read the info in the link I provided? You can check it by launching Activity Monitor and under CPU search for cleanup.
Since the photos are in the library I don't see the need at this time to reinstall iPhoto. Maybe later. Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox. -
iPad 1 cannot upgrade to io6, but apps want me to upgrade to make them compatible and streamlinedwith 6 - should I refuse the updates? They don't say if they'll still run in an ios5 platform and I can't afford a new iPad if these upgrades make the iPad apps unusable on this machine. Thanks for any assistance!
KelleyHaving the same issue here. I unfortunately purchased a book on iTunes, then went to download iBooks, but can't due to their recent update/upgrade. My kids iTouchs are all 6.1.5 , So I'm guessing that if you did not have iBooks previously purchased that you are now S.O.L. if you want to read a book on your iPod??
I am rather frustrated that I spent money on a book that they can't read.
Is there another app that will let them read it? -
Ever since I updated the Bejeweled Blitz on my 3G iPod, The game kept crashing so I deleted & re-installed it.
Sadly, I now can't play the game on my iPod anymore because new version is compatible with the 4G & iSo or higher only.
What should I do to get my purchased game back?
Please fix this problem ASAP!
Thank you.Have you:

HT4623 I don't have this option (software update) in my iPad so how I will update iOS on my iPad
I need to update iOS on my ipad2 but I don't have option software update on my iPad so how I can update it
The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

It was in process of updating and when the mac restarted it just sits there with spinning circle. I have waited for hours to no avail. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve?
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Holding down the power button for more than 10 Seconds will force quit your Mac. This might leave it in a state where it will not restart at all.
I would wait at least a minute before restarting after forced shutdown.
The update may restart or resume.
The reason your update failed may be a bad or failing SSD.

I have an older iMac operating on Mac OSx 10.4. When I attempted to down-load some plug-in updates, they would not accept it because my computer is to old and doesn't have the necessary capability. When I try to remove the message, nothing works, and every time I boot the computer with Firefox, it keeps reloading. Please tell me how to delete this plug-in reminder. Thank you.
You can inspect and modify some prefs on the about:config page to suppress the plugin reminder.
*set the plugins.hide_infobar_for_missing_plugin pref to true
*set the plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin pref to true
*set the plugins.update.url pref to an empty string

iphone 3g not working because of uncompatible update, what should i do?
There is no way to update a 3G to iOS 4.3.x using approved Apple procedures (meaning using iTunes), so presumably you used a non-approved procedure to do it. You may now have an iBrick, but you can try to restore it to a supported version using iTunes and DFU mode. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. If this fails there may still be a way, but you won't find it in this forum. You need to try some iPhone hacking sites.

Tearing hair out because there is also a request to check whether another copy of Firefox may be installed, and have hence uninstalled and deleted every reference to Mozilla and Firefox several times, and hence have lost all bookmarks, cookies etc. Have to accept the latter, but still can't load the latest version. The downloaded exe file just will not load successfully. Any advice would be gratefully recieved. [email protected]
If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.

How to download versions of apps compatible with OSX 10.7 not the ones updated for 10.9
how to download versions of apps compatible with OSX 10.7 not the ones updated for 10.9?
I'm trying to download iLife and iWork apps for my MacBook. For example: The GarageBand app will not download because it says it is compatible with 10.9. I have 10.7 and cannot update to 10.9 because I'm on a 13in. Late 2007 MacBook. Any suggestions?Click here and follow the instructions. If they’re not applicable, you can’t download them and need to install them from a DVD.

After doing an update of itunes on my pc Itunes will no longer open and gives me a msg about MSVCR80.dll not on my computer and Itunes was installed incorrectly error 7 (windows error 126)
This happened to me today as well post installing the latest version of itunes. I did a search on google for the error and came across a recommendation to :
Note: Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the msvcr80.dll error.
If, and only if, you're receiving the msvcr80.dll is missing error when you open Apple iTunes, do the following: (skip this step if your msvcr80.dll error is occurring with a different program)
Uninstall from Windows the following five programs in this order: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and finally Apple Application Support. If you have iCloud, remove it as well.
Uninstalling these programs in Windows is done from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
Note: Songs and playlists in iTunes will not be removed when you uninstall the iTunes program or any of the other, already-mentioned Apple programs. If you'd still like to back them up, they're usually located in the My Music folder in Windows.
Download the latest version of iTunes from Appleand note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
Run the iTunes installation as an administrator. If you're not sure how to do that, see How Do I Open an Elevated Command Prompt? for help. That procedure shows you how to open the Command Prompt program as an administrator, but the steps are essentially the same for anything, including the iTunes installation package you just downloaded.
A general overview of removing and reinstalling iTunes can also be found here on Apple's site but the above procedure seems to work better in this particular situation. -
After updating to iOS 6.1.2, neither my iPhone or iPad will update apps thru App Store. Any suggestions?
What happens when you try?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
Why isn't the new iOS4 update compatible with the 1st generation iPod touch
It makes me extremely angry that i have wanted what the new update contains ever since i got my ipod and now I can't have it because whoever made the update didn't make it compatible with the 1st generation iPod touch. Ig someone could give me a good reason as to why this happened that would be much appreciated.
Doesn't have the needed hardware in particular not enough RAM.

This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
