Recently had a OS update to 10.9.2
After the update when I open a application it seems to open underneath what is on the desktop (not always). I then have to locate the application, it used to open on top. The MacBook Pro also seems to be lagging. Is there a fix?
I just had this happen to me too – hung on "Completing Installation" for over an hour on the 10.9.2 update. Got confidence from this thread to restart (and things also seem fine for me), but I've had bad experiences doing that with similar system updates, so it certainly makes me more wary of applying Mac OS updates than I should need to be. I definitely expect more of Apple.

My Windows XP software recently had an automatic update and now when I open iTunes, I receive the message "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes."
I have not used iTunes for several weeks so the issue may not be related to the last Windows XP automatic upgrade. I have never had problems with iTunes in the past. Is this a real message or perhaps a virus?
Before I reinstall iTunes, any thoughts?It's a real message.
Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now? -
aI paid a small fortune to have a very big Music Library and all of my songs are gone? How do i get them back? There has to be some way to have over 2000 + songs put back into my own Library how do i do that?
What exactly did your friend do ? Did you or he take a backup of your iTunes library before updating your computer ? Have you checked to see if your music is still on your computer ? By default your iTunes library is stored under :
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
If it's there then you can add it to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
If not then do you have a copy of your library on a backup ? If you do then use File > Add To Library to add it back.
If you haven't got a backup then you might, depending upon what country that you are in and if the music is still in your country's store, be able to redownload your iTunes purchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage. -
Please help.

Yes, I had about 1331 songs installed. 6 years go I transferred all my CDs into my I Tunes library. Everytime I had my computer reformatted my computer guy REMEMBERED to copy my I Tunes before reformatting. This time he forgot. Now it shows up in my "old transferred files folder". When I click on it thats how it shows up. That old transferred file folder was from a previous reformat of my hard drive. I HAVE bought some songs from the I Tuness store that are avaiulable now on my I Tunes. The ones I transferred from CD are in that .xml file. Luckily, I have some songs that are in my windows Media Library in mp3 and wave files that I can re-import into my I Tunes folder but not all of my songs are there.
Unless you or your 'computer guy' made a backup of the iTunes data files (music files) they are now gone. As Dave said, purchased songs can be redownloaded, ripped ones will need a re-rip. -
My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.
I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

I recently had an update to my Firefox account and since then cannot use it at all. When I try to a window opens which says the following:
The application or DLL C:/Program Files/Mozilla/Firefox/xul.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check your installation diskette.Please do the following.
Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.
Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to '''Mozilla Firefox '''and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').
Then reboot and delete the folder called '''Mozilla Firefox '''at this location: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.
This is what's known as a 'clean install'. It will overwrite the corrupt files which are preventing Firefox from starting. -
I recently had to cancel my debit card because of unauthorized purchases on Facebook. I have tried to update with 4 different credit cards and every time I get a message saying invalid security code. How do I fix this?
Debit card? Are you sure?
USA iTunes Store does not appear to accept debit cards - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html "The iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBookstore services (“Services”) accept these forms of payment: credit cards issued by U.S. banks, payments through your PayPal account, iTunes Cards, iTunes Store Gift Certificates, Content Codes, and Allowance Account balances." -

You cannot.
Unless you have done as you should and have the old facebook app on your computer. -
I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on iMac OS X and have recently had to reinstall the OS following upgrade to an SSD. I cannot update Photoshop as it says it is unable to extract the downloaded files (U44M1/2010). Should I reinstall Photoshop and Bridge from scratch or is there an easier way?@@ !
Sounds like you transferred programs from another drive? This isn't a very good way to do it. Yes, re-install the Adobe apps.

Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.
The only thing I can think of is if you got a replacement D610 as rumored here:
http://nikonrumors.com/2014/01/27/nikon-is-replacing-some-d600-cameras-with-new-d610-model s.aspx/
In that case, you would need the new version of Camera RAW or DNG converter as per Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras .
The other thing to check is if the files open in the Nikon native ViewNX software. If they don't it's time to call the service center. -

Hey! I recently had to reboot my computer and reinstall itunes. I now want to update my iPad but it is not allowing me to save my apps in my itunes library because it is already connected with my old library from before I rebooted. What do i do?!
The solution is fairly easy IF the items that you are concerned about are all items that have been obtained from the iTunes Store AND they were all purchased using the same Apple ID. First, with the iPad disconnected from the computer, fire up iTunes. Look to the right side top and confirm that that Apple ID is displayed. If it is not, go to "Account" and log into that ID. Then, connect the iPad. Say "yes" to the "Transfer Purchases" choice. Everything on the iPad will be transferred to the computer's iTunes library.
If anything goes wrong, you can download all purchased items again with no charge (except movies) provided that you use the same Apple ID.
If you have been using multiple Apple IDs, it's a bit more complicated. Post back and we'll go from there. -
I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up. Is there anyway that I could get my videos to appear in my playlist? They are still in my ipod in the video section, but just won't appear in my playlist.
iOS6 problems aplenty ....not sure if the link I inserted is working or not, but the issue is a lot more prevalent - the issue being that what shows up & plays in iTunes after the iOS6 update is not what shows up (& plays) on the device itself. This may go beyond just the iPod Touch as well.
In my case I can see & play both audio & video files in my Playlist through iTunes, but can only see the Playlists on the iPod Touch with ALL of them being empty. Syncing numerous times no help. Contacting Apple Tech. Support no help - they suggested downloading my Purchases from the iTunes Store - waste of time, did not make a difference. It is clear Apple needs to release a fix to OS6.
Another problem I noticed on the device is that the Shuffle option is hidden on the built-in Songs Playlist, having to swipe the screen down to see it - dumb dumb dumb. -
