Safari icon has turned into the generic icon and doesnt work anymore

Reinstalling Mac OSX 10.5 (Archive and Install) may be the step.

    Hello Buzzy78,
    Try to put your iPhone in Recovery mode and then Restore it to Factory settings and see if you are able to get into your iPhone.

    Error in downloading itunes in windows, all the .exe files turn into the itunes icon

    Download the lnk registry fix from www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. Reinstall iTunes. Should you find that all of your desktop shortcuts have again turned into links to the iTunes application apply the patch.

  • My ipod mini is showing Three of the icons and wont work.

    My ipod mini is showing Three of the icons and wont work. Its showing the uncharged icon when plugged into my computer but when i plug it in to the wall, the apple comes and then swithes to the sad ipod icon. Before it goes back to the apple it shows the icon for the battery with an exclamation piont for like 1/2 a second. It repeats. The ipod has been telling me attempting to copy failed. could not be read from or written to for like 6 months but i just press sync again and it works. today it did that but then another box came up that said could not be read from or written to file or directory has been corrupted. then i restored it and it wouldnt let me press only sync checked items. so i had to drag songs to the ipod to get them on it and i was listening to it and a song stoped at six seconds and i ptressed skip and it didnt change for like 20 min so i reset it and now its doing this. does it need serviced? is it worth it or should i get a new one?

    The first thing is to check for corrpt files. So go to my computer and open the iPod drive and post a screen cap of the files. Do a couple of different ones...like one of the main drive page and then one of iPod_Control and one of the iPod_Control Music folder.
    Here is what my "dirty" drive looked like:
    The circled files (with the exception of # 12) are the ones that I ended up deleting.
    and here are the fixed drives
    In order to show some of the files, you have to go to the top of the page, press "tools", "folder options", "view" and then "show hidden files and folders".
    When you go to the music folder and delete excess files, you don't need to worry about loosing your music because it's all safe on iTunes.
    You could also try changing the letter drive, details here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499

  • There is a question mark covering my safari icon and it wont open

    Why is there a question mark covering my safari Icon and how do I remove it?

    Where is it? Did you move it or did you delete it? Try doing a Spotlight search for it just in case you moved it.
    Otherwise, get out your OS X installer disc and look in the optional installs folder for an installer from which you can restore pre-bundled software. You may be able to restore Safari. Or, you can download a Safari version for Tiger or Leopard at support.apple.com/downloads.

  • CS4: cursor has turned into three different "figures" in line. How to fix? [was:janeriklindqvist]

    The cursor in my CS4 has turned into three different "figures" in line. This makes the program almost impossible to use and I cannot fin a way to come back to the normal "cross" again.

    What’s your OS?
    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

  • When I click on the iCloud icon it says that it will download without additional charge because I've already purschased it but after that it goes back to the icloud icon and doesnt download. How can I download it?

    Im having trouble downloading the iMovie app on my iPad. When I click on the iCloud icon it says that it will download without additional charge because I've already purchased it(I did purchase it) but after that it goes back to the icloud icon and doesnt download. How can I download it?

    Hello bianca,
    It sounds like you are trying to download a previous purchase to your iPad but the item never downloads. I would recommend starting by closing all the apps that are running in the background.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone and try again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I have OS and photoshop CC my spacebar doesn't turn into the hand anymore

    I don't know if I pressed a series of keys that took away the action of my spacebar turning into the hand tool but my spacebar now doesn't turn into the hand tool.  I have looked into the Keyboard short cuts and found the Hand tool.  It has an H next to it and that keyboard shortcut works, but I need the quickness of toggling between the hand tool and whatever other tool I'm using.  How can I get this back?

    I had this same issue and a restart would NOT fix the problem, neither would reseting the prefs, or any of the other solutions mentioned in forum posts.  I discovered the problem to be the Terminal application was automatically opening on login, which had the "Secure Keyboard Entry" option enabled. (Terminal menu item->Secure Keyboard Entry (check marked))  If I quit Terminal without disabling "Secure Keyboard Entry", the spacebar in Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop would work as expected.  Although, if I restarted with Terminal still loading automatically with "Secure Keyboard Entry" enabled then the spacebar would NOT work until I quit the Terminal app.  The problem is that when the computer logs into the user account and starts the Terminal app it hides the keyboard entry from other applications.  Somehow Adobe products are now sensitive to this and the spacebar stops working as is should.  So, the solution is to either make sure Terminal is not to load automatically at login, or disable the "Secure Keyboard Entry" option in Terminal and only enable it as needed.  Be sure to disable it when your are no longer using the terminal.  I have never seen this before and have been using Adobe products on OS X since its release, but I have not always used the Terminal as I do now in such a secure way.  Thanks again governments and criminals for even further complicating our lives!
    -Cheers

    HI again Andy,
    The last message had some more stuff in between the "Hello" and "Regards" - I have no idea what happened to it. But nevermind...
    I started up the Mini with the modem in one usb, and the speaker system in the other (M-Audio Sonica Theatre) - I have one of the Minis that have only 2 USB (and one FireWire) ports. The firewire has the external drive connected to it.
    So far, as I"m typing this, I AM able to be online and use iTunes simultaneously. (both SaFari and iTunes respond slower than if I was using only one or the other, but they ARE actually working - in addition to having Adium running) - So I think what you suggested ( that is was something wonky was the USB hub) was a correct, yet assessment.
    Would you have any reccommendations for USB hubs? The only thing that I have connected to the hub under normal circumstances that would be constantly "running" would be the RadioShark (even though the Radio soft isn't playing - the blue light on the RadioShark is always on) - and the speakers naturally. Everything else is of the occassional variety - iPod Sync Cable, Dual Layer External DVD Burner, and a "pass thu" to the USB ports on my Hard Drive Enclosure (which had been unplugged before the problem was noticed). The hub I current use is the
    Kensington DomeHub USB 2.0 (7 ports) Weighted Hub 33118 http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-DomeHub-ports-Weighted-33118/dp/B0002FHENE/ref= sr16/002-4275642-8664817?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1187848108&sr=8-6
    which (I thought) worked better than the "throwaway" ones I had used previously.
    You think it is the hub or something connected to it that may be causing the problem?
    Regardless, thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon.

  • I can't be the only person who has this problem - when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that

    I can't be the only person who has this problem with iCal- when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that.

    Yeah that works, but, it involves a click on the event, a click on edit, a click on the date, keystrokes, plus, since you can't see the next month you have to have a calendar in front of you so as to put it to the right date. It's easier just to cut it and advance the month and paste it, once you are in the right month you can move it around helter skelter willy nilly no problems. Although now that you mention it I will try it, maybe it is easier than cut and paste as I don't really care about the date, as long as it gets moved into the right month I can drag it around all I want.
