READER HAS DISSAPEARED ON UPGRADE

Hello,
I would be very grateful for any help I might receive.
When I was asked to download a PDF from the British Government website a prompt came up saying an upgrade was available for Adobe reader 9.0, as i was busy I declined the upgrade and sought to down load the form. However the form would not down load. After a couple of attempts I presumed that perhaps I did need the upgrade, so I clicked on the link for the upgrade and followed the instructions. It all seemed to go OK, but when I sought to shut down, a pop up told me it hadn't all gone well, as I was in a rush I just switched off.
When I next switched on I got a pop up titled 'osd 'with an exclamation mark in a red triangle with the word LAG beside it. I could either click OK or x, I clicked x and just carried on as normal.
This morning I have just tried to open a pdf and cannot find reader anywhere on the computer. I am using vista with service pack 1.
I suppose I could just try to download reader again but am rather wary of doing so, just in case it piles further problems on top. Is it possible that my anti-virus (avira) might have given problems with the upgrade? I don't remember if I had the anti-virus when I originally downloaded reader.
With thanks,
M.Clarke (UK)

There is no FaceTime App, it is only accessed from the Contacts App. Is it turned on from within Settings?

Its likely there but he pop up page isn't resizing properly.
Try a reset: Simulaneously hold down the On and Home buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it should appear. When shut down is complete, turn the iPad back on.

ICal: january has dissapear!!!!!!

The month of janury has dissapear from iCal in both my wife's macbook and my macbook pro (which are not sincronize). The main window and the preview window would jump from dec 2007 to february 2008. I can only get to jan 08 if i change my view to weeks only. Plus all my january appointments sync froma nokie E62, show in feb 08. Anyone.... any ideas? thanks in advance!

holadi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Often iCal anomalies can be rectified by refreshing the iCal plist file.
Quit iCal, and drag the com.apple.iCal.plist file which is located in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder to the Desktop. Then log out/in or restart and check iCal for desired behavior.
Another place to check is System Preferences...>International>Formats>(Make sure that you select the correct "Region" and also the appropriate "Calendar" in "Dates." There are many other settings in that "International" Preference and I hesitate to make any more suggestions. If my suggestions do not work, it may also be helpful to look under the Language tab.

Try restarting your Mac.
If that doesn't help, open a Finder window. Select your Home folder (it has a small house icon) in the Sidebar on the left.
Now open the Library folder then the Prefernces folder.
Move the com.apple.desktop.plist file to the Trash. Restart your Mac one more time.

My iPhone playlist has dissapeared, how can I get it back?

My iPhone playlist has dissapeared, how can I get it back?

I'm very new to this sort of thing, so bear with me. I had my computer in to the Apple store on Jan 10th, & they replaced Leopard with Snow leopard because of problems. I have iphoto 8.
This morning opening my computer a picture briefly appreared that I had saved to iphoto. I decided to place it in its correct event box, and ! sign appeared. Upon opening iphoto, I found a blank. I've not backed up my files. I've looked everywhere on the system, including Trash, applications, Pictures, all my document files.
Also I had 2 icons of iphoto on my desktop because it had disappeared 2 years ago & came back some months later. Two days ago I decided to clean up my desktop & moved the icons to the pIcture file and a document file. I don't know whether this triggered the disappearance. The main icon is still in the dock.
Does this help?

My Pro has had RAM upgrade. Will not login.

My Pro has had RAM upgrade. Brand new compatible module. Boots fine but will not login.
The password is typed in correctly (per account).
A light grey screen & mouse cursor appears then we are cycled back to the login page. If we deliberately try an incorrect password we get the 'shimmy & shake' of an incorrect password.
The H/W test passed.
What do you suggest?
Many thanks!
Andy.

I don't own a MBP but that sounds bizarre. Did it shut down as soon as she plugged it in?

G5 Dual - DVD Reader has gone very very slow after Leopard

After 1 Migrate install and 1 clean install, I notice that reinstalling apps is taking 4/5 times as long as they should it's as if my DVD Reader has gone very very slow. I thought at first it was the migration that had caused FCPS2 to reinstall slow.
(Sony DVD RW AW-G170A 4 months old) on G5 Dual 2's)
FCPS2 wanted 19-hrs to install, I waited 6 hrs and then gave up. Luckily or unluckily as the case may be I used the time install Leo on my other Macs.
In the end I have installed Apps over the Firewire network connected to my other G5 Dual with the stock DVD drive, they are installing fast now.

Some more info about my setup:
*Simultaneous Dual band AEBS:*
Radio Mode: 802.11n only (5 GHz) - 802.11b/g
Radio Channel Selection: Manual - 161 (5GHz), 6(2.4GHz)
*Airport Express:*
Wireless mode: Extend a wireless network
Allow wireless clients checked under the name of the network (same as for AEBS).
Both are WPA/WPA2 Personal security. And both the routers were upgraded to 7.4.2 firmware this morning with the hope that it will help.

+2008 model Mac mini -+ upgrade to Snow Leopard shows extremely slow wifi connection that it is unusable. It takes 20min to load apple homepage. When I boot from the clone of my Leopard lying on my external drive, it works perfectly.
I compared the settings between all the tabs of Network-->Airport-->Advanced and they are identical between Snow Leopard and Leopard mode except that SL doesn't have the "Apple Talk" tab.
Appreciate any help to debug this.

How do I make sure Adobe Reader has been correctly patched?

Before Patching
Adobe Reader version 9.3.0 installed through GPO has been running on WinXP Pro SP3 without a problem for months
Patching Method
I copied the following files to local C:\V932 folder:
AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi (original v9.3 MSI installation file)
AdbeRdrUpd932_all_incr.msp (the downloaded patch file released in April 2010)
then I used the following command:
msiexec /a AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi /p AdbeRdrUpd932_all_incr.msp
The Result
- AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi file gets updated to the date and time the above command was executed
- 4 new folders created (Common, CommonAppData, Program Files and Windows)
I then created a new shared folder (\\servername\AdbeRdr932) on the server and copied the whole content of C:\V932 to that shared folder. After that, I created a new GPO package to upgrade version 9.3.0
Rebooted my Windows XP Pro machine and the upgrade went successfully. When I check Help - About, it shows that I have 9.3.2
Here's the problem:
When I compare Adobe related files in the following folders, some files do not match:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader
and
\\servername\AdbeRdr932\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader
For example:
Properties of AcroRd32.exe in C drive shows File version 9.3.0.148
Properties of AcroRd32.exe in the shared folder shows File version 9.3.2.163
There are some other files (DLL, EXE) that do not match. The files in C: drive is older than those on the shared network folder. Now I'm not sure what to trust, the version info shown in Adobe Reader Help - About or the file version info.
To those who deploy Adobe Reader version 9.3.2 through GPO, do you see the same problem?

As you said -
When I check Help - About, it shows that I have 9.3.2
                    and
Properties of AcroRd32.exe in C drive shows File version 9.3.0.148
These two statements tell the whole story.
Try out one thing - Go to help-->About .. I know you have done this and on this splash screen it shows 9.3.2....that's fine
                 Now take the mouse pointer to the position on splash screen where 9.3.2 is written and click
After clicking you will see a different version string. I bet now you will see 9.3.0.148.
This is what is happening behind the scenes:
Initial version 9.3.2 is picked from a registry entry
But when you click on the splash screen the version is picked from the AcroRd32.dll
Unfortunately there is no straight way to make out whether Reader has been correctly patched or not because sometimes version in splashscreen is expected to change after click (if changes are going only in files other than AcroRd32.dll)
In your case the installation of Reader 9.3.2 is corrupt because the way you are creating an AIP is wrong.
Follow these steps to create an AIP and then deploy it via GPO:
Perform administrative installation
1. Copy the Reader 9.3 msi installer to your machine.
2. Create a distribution point (a folder where the installer can install the uncompressed
program files).
3. Click Start, click Run, and then enter the following command:
  msiexec /a <path of Reader9.3.msi>
4. When you receive a prompt asking where to install the files, browse to the distribution point
you created in step 2.
5. Click OK. When the installer finishes, all files will be at the distribution point.
Also AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi is also present at the distribution point.(This msi is used in step 7 below)
To add patches to the administrative installation:6. Copy the Reader 9.3.2 msp patch on your machine.
7. Click Start, then click Run, and then type CMD.
At the command prompt, type the following:
msiexec /a <path of msi at distribution point> /p <path of Reader 9.3.2.msp>
After installation is successfull you can copy this folder (distribution point) to any server and create GPO package.
So it's a two step process.
You were trying to do this in one step! and this is where you were going wrong.

Aperture is asking to upgrade library every time I open the application, even after it has already been upgraded. I just ran the update and it is still not fixed. What can I do???

Aperture is asking to upgrade library every time I open the application, even after it has already been upgraded. I just ran the update and it is still not fixed. What can I do??? My plug are asking me to re-register them too. This is annoying. Please help!!!!!

How do you try to start the repair dialogue? By starting Aperture or by opening the Library?
If you not already have tried it with directly opening the library:
reveal your Aperture Library in the Finder
Whilst holding down Command(⌘)- option (⌥) double click on the Aperture Library.
Select "repair library" from the dialogue.
What about Frank Caggiano's questions above?
It would be really helpful to know, how many libraries you have, and if this problem is restricted to one of them.

My exchange has recently been upgraded to ADSL2 - ...

Hello,
I signed up for BT Total Broadband just over a year ago and I was connected at 8,128 Kbps on ADSL Max because that was the best my exchange offered. However, according to Sam Knows, my exchange has recently been upgraded to ADSL2. I tried running the line speed test for my phone number on the BT Broadband signup page and it now estimates my line speed would be 19Mb. I tried restarting my home hub but it just reconnected at 8,128 Kbps with G.992.1 Annex A. Is there anything I need to do to get the faster speed? Or is it just a case of waiting and it will happen automatically at some point?
I'm quite happy with my connection but obviously the faster speed would be great
Thanks for any help!
John
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi once an exchange goes live it can take from a few days to several months for all lines to be moved over to the new ADSL 2+ equipment you do not need to do anything apart from wait BT will send out an email when your line is due to be moved across
