Safari 5.1 has so many bugs I can't use it anymore. I don't know what to do. Help?
Ever since I installed OX Lion Safari has been the only problem I am really annoyed at. Every time I try to edit bookmarks or add anything to the new Reading List feature it freezes and I have to restart. Some extensions like hoverzoom don't work and sometimes it just crashes. Is this something other people have experienced? I've been trying searching google for anyone with similar problems, but have come up empty. I've had bad experiences dealing with Apple directly when it comes to issues with their applications. Not sure where else to turn. Should I just try and install an older version?
I checked the site, but when you go to the steps, you can actually SEE the label. Mine is blank, there is nothing there to print out.
I finally went and got a little PC acer netbook. I need to take my mac mini in for repair and need something to work on while it is in the shop.
I am hoping that I can print my labels from it. If so, then I will just keep that set up for my shipping needs.
And I am so so tired of the new Safari. I have to Force quit at least 2 times a day.
I am hoping that I can have something done with that too while it is being repaired.
And my Iphoto which is super slow now.
Aaaaa...my poor Mac...

My ipad screen has gone black and I don't know what to do the screen still works and I can still unlock it and I can still type. But I don't know what to do can anyone help me it will be much appreciated
If the reset doesn't do it then it's possible that the backlight or another part of your screen has broken. Unfortunately it's not really user servicible. I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out. If your device is still under warranty and they don't determine that the damage was the result of 'abuse or neglect' (their words) then it could be a free replacement.
I'd just do a backup before you take it in, just in case. -

My macbook pro will not shut down. It tells me that safari has cancelled shut down and to quit safari and try again, but every time I try to quit safari it won't let me. I need help...I don't know what to do.
Have you tried holding the power button down for several seconds? I would try the force quit as mentioned earlier first, or go to the Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities and try force quit there.

Hi, I have been trying to update many things on my 2009 white macbook. Everytime I do it tells me I need a different version. I don't know what versions I need or even where to begin or if I need to purchase new hardware? It says my version is 10.5.8. I have tried downloading 10.6 but not sure what to do. Everyone else seems to be updating there's and mine is way behind however it still tells me I have no software updates...Any suggestions?
You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
10.5 Leopard was based on Power PC code and was written to be able to run on both Power PC and Intel processors.
10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture. -
Hi everyone,
I am having a problem with my Mac OS X 10.7.5 mac book air , there are constant pop pups and small windows with ads blinking constantly opening up on my safari in front of everything?? it is constantly interupting me and makes me mistakingly click on it then another new windows open behind the one im using..
I am not too sure if thats a virus or trojan.. I always thought that macs didn't get virus? this looks like one to me… any experts around? please help me fix it with your instructions? really don't know what to do... thanksThose are not viruses. You have probably installed some malware:
The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware. -

There's a black and white striped glitch on the left side of my screen on my Macbook Air! Its happened before and has been an easy fix, usually just restart or turn off my computer but don't know what else to do. Is there anything I can try now? I wont be able to make it to the Apple store until tomorow and would prefer if there was something I could do that didnt cost money, my computers very new and I really need help.
Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
I suggest that you try to repair the phone software using PC Companion..
Before repairing your device you may want to backup your information first. Check out this topic for more information on how to.
How to backup?
If the issue should still remain I think that this needs to be examined and fixed at a repair center. For more information about how to submit your phone for repair and where, contact your local support team.

System has slowed so much i can't use it! what to do?
my iBook G4 (800mhz, 512[640]RAM) has been moving so slowly the last few days to the point that i can't use it anymore. simple tasks like opening the finder or iTunes sends the rainbow pinwheel spinning, even if the applications are opening by themselves. even when i'm not using the computer, it sounds like it's thinking. you know, responding to commands and carrying out orders and performing all kinds of operations. only i don't know what it's doing. this happened once before when i was using spotlight a lot and one day spotlight was updating the cashe or it's memory or something and i ended up fixing that pretty easily. i've checked this, and that's not the problem. i'm leaving town on a business trip soon, and i really need my computer to be in top form if it's at all possible. i feel competent on my mac, but i'm absolutely lost on this one. any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)have 2.72 gigs left
Bearing in mind that Virtual Memory can easily use 2 gigs of disk space, this might well be an issue. If VM is working at that level, then you have less than a gig of sapce, and if you've got a large temp. file, from - say - editing a file in Photoshop, it's very easy to see how the OS would have difficulty finding space...
Can you remove any files to storage? On an external disk? On CDs? Do you have lots of music that cold be stored on an external hd? Garageband loops? Remove unwanted language resources using Monolingual? Have you cleared out the unused language resources in iWeb? It might be worth trying, even temporarily, to clear off 5+ gigs of space, restarting and seeing does that make a difference.
If not then a re-install seems like the next port of call, however, with that limited amount of space, I think that you'll start having problems again, and soon.
What to take from the Machine in the event of a wipe and install? A non-exhaustive list:
1. Your Home Folder, Documents, Pictures, Music, Library, including the Application Support Folder, Mail, Mail attachements, Calendars, Keychains and Preferences
2. The Application Support Folder at HD/Library
3. Have you installers for all your apps? Serial Numbers? Passwords from your keychains?
And anything else you can think of. Have a good look through the Library folder. Some apps create folders in there, appart from Application Support.

I don't know what has happened but I now can't open iphoto. I get a caution when I try which says the iphoto library is locked! It was working perfectly fine this afternoon until I tried to upload some photos from my camera and my computer started to run very slow and wasn't recognising my camera. I tried to quit iphoto and then when I came back in to it, this was the message I received. As far as I am aware I didn't alter any settings or put on any locks. Please help!!
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
