Settings still don't retain.
So, it's 3.0.3 already but one of the most importal features still doesn't work. Seriously, how hard can it be to fix it?
honestly, dont do that, 3.0.3 hasnt come out yet... dont freak me out like that...
but on another note, search before you post, there are other posts like this one.

I downloaded a new version of Norton 360 on 10/28/2012 and a couple of days later, I am unable to see the buttons I added to customize my Firefox tool bar. Norton says it is a Firefox issue. I have tried resetting Firefox and reapplying the buttons on the toolbar, but they still don't show up until I click on View|Toolbars|customize. I just want to be able to to see the "Print" "Zoom" and "Home" buttons every time I open Firefox. I have Firefox version 16.0.2 which Norton told me was downloaded to my computer 2 days ago. I guess this must be done automatically, because I didn't download a new Firefox version.
You can try click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window to restore the default toolbar set up.

Hello everyone.
I have been tempted to use iCloud on my iPhone to sync with my Mac and in the future, with an iPad.
I got tired of a 10 hour backup that wouldn't finish so I cancelled it and just decided to wait.
Now that I wanna take the plunge I still don't get how iCloud works, for some scenarios.
For instance, I don't understand the difference between Storage and Backup?
So I don't know if I'm correct to exemplify this scenario:
iWork's Pages has iCloud enabled.
Now suppose you have an iPhone and an iPad.
On Friday, at 10 PM you make a document (DOC1) on Pages on iPhone and close it. Now you go to sleep and it automatically makes an iCloud Backup since it's plugged to energy and your WiFi is on.
On Saturday, you make another document on Pages (DOC2) on iPhone at 10 AM. Then doing whatever required for it to appear into your iPad (opening Pages on iPad?) you are able to see DOC1 and DOC2 on your iPad.
Now at 2 PM Saturday your iPhone falls down a cliff and explodes into a million pieces. You take your other iPhone (you're rich remember?) and restore it from your Backup (Friday night) so after it's done you open Pages on your "other" iPhone and BANG, you have DOC1 there (since that's the last the backup did), or do you have DOC2 as well since it was saved to the cloud as "Storage" as well??????
Suppose you have an app like AwesomeNote that DOESN'T have iCloud support. What is going to happen? I assume it will only save the settings for the app, but then it WON'T automatically sync to other devices? So basically it will ONLY be useful shall you need to restore from a iCloud Backup but NOT shall you wanna sync your notes between iOS devices?
So as you can see I don't understand the difference between app settings stored on iCloud per developer's enabling (new version of app after iOS 5) and app settings in an iCloud backup.
I still think there is a limbo between commercials and real life. Or maybe I'm just either too complicated, too advanced or too much of an idiot to understand what most people seem to just simply assume and move on with their lives.
Oh and one last thing, could I use iCloud to just save "data" to work in sync with devices (like in the commercial) but ask it NOT to backup anything and just use the old iTunes backup for that? (In which case I'd have to assume iCloud could potentially save in a given timeframe 3 versions of the same settings of an app, two for the backups for your iDevices -iPhone and iPad- and other for just "sync").Welcome to the Apple Community.
In your opening scenario, you don't need to restore from back up at all. Doc 1 & 2, will be in iCloud, so even if you have to go purchase a new phone and set it up, when you enable iCloud it will push the two docs to your device.
No you don't need to back up to iCloud, you can still use the sync features and continue to back up via iTunes, indeed unless you don't have a computer or have infrequent access to one, I'd recommend this is what you do.
Not sure what happens when you have the same document open at the same time, there is a conflict feature, but I haven't seen how it works yet. -
HT6030 Mavericks 10.9.1 and Gmail still don't play well together: help!
I have 4 gmail acounts and Mavericks and iOS 7 still don't get along despite having the latest versions of everything.
Mail deleted one place still shows up in another.
Counts are totally wrong between my MacAir my iMac and my iPad and iPhone and appear totally random.
At times mail won't show up on the iMac or MacAir for days or even weeks when there may be hundreds of messages that show up in my web browser and sometimes on the iPhone and iPad, but it seems totally arbitrary and to make no sense when it does one thing or the other.
I have no custom settings on gmail, nothing strange, just use it in the most basic ways there are.
Anyone else still having this problem and what to do about it? It is no better from 10.9 to 10.9.1, and has been causing problems since the moment Mavericks was installed.
Come on, Apple! You have a $100 billion in the back: hire people who can code a mail program or talk with the people who coded Mail for Mountain Lion, as it worked just fine.10.8 worked well with my Mac Mini (2009) connected to IOGEAR KVM model GCS1108. My mouse is from Redmond and the keyboard is a Goldtouch.
Mavericks has a problem with my KVM switch as well. It seems to be a USB problem.
Case 1: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch -- mini DVI port to DVI. If the KVM USB cable (known good) is connected, the Mini chimes at boot but no grey Apple logo appears. LCD remains blank white. Boot does not progress.
Case 2: The Mini's video is connected to the KVM switch, as before. If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected, the Mini chimes at boot, the grey logo appears, and boot proceeds normally. Video is fine. I then connect the KVM USB cable to the Mini and use keyboard and mouse. KVM switching works as expected.
If the KVM USB cable is NOT connected but a keyboard and mouse are connected directly to the Mini, the boot sequence is normal. Video works.
The problem is not the hardware, all of which worked well with 10.8 (Mountain Lion). I would downgrade if Apple made 10.8 available from the App Store. -
I cannot get apps I purchased now sitting on my pc onto my iphone. They were there before I upgraded to 6.0.1. I backed them up on my pc and I can see the apps are all there. But after syncing they still don't appear on my phone.
You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

I have unlocked my iPhone 3G with Vodafone via iTunes, but now the downloaded apps crash immediately when opened. I've tried a Restore, but this didn't help. I've also tried removing all apps and re-installing them, but they still don't work. Any ideas? Thanks.
yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
open itunes on my computer
click on my device on the left
go to the device summary
click restore
it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this! -
i can't seem to install some apps that i downloaded for my iPad from my Mac. i have tried syncing them but they still don't appear on the pad. how do i go about this?
These are iPad apps correct?
Do you have restrictions set on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions>Installing apps>Off or Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content?
Are you sure that the Apps are selected to sync from the Mac to the iPad?
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Click on Install next to the apps that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Apps Heading to select it
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you do not see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu. -
How can I reset my Ipod's pass code, restoring doesn't reset anything and I still don't know my code?
Passcode for what?
Was the restore successful, that it did the iPod/iTunes go through all the steps without errors?
For screen-lock passcode:
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For Restrictions passcode yo have to restore to factory settings/new iPod since restoring from a backup made when the iPod had the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode willaalso be restored. -
Privacy settings STILL not working - sort it out s...
i always have my privacy settings fixed so that all options are set to "contacts" only. however i am STILL getting messages from random strangers saying that i appear interesting.
i'm not interesting. i have no interest in receiving these messages. i have updated my software and rechecked all the privacy settings but i still get these messages.

i'm running on a mac (lion) - updating doesn't help. any other ideas? frankly at the moment i don't see why skype even bothers to have security settings - this is not the first time (by any means) that this has happened: they shouldn't make these kind of settings promises if they can't keep them.jordankees wrote:

Do you have a lot of photos and videos/movies installed?
How much is your "Other"? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Background...
I joined the Mac bandwagon about 2 months ago. I am still getting used to it, but like it so far. Last week, I activated a new Iphone on my Imac. I needed to key in my userid and password. 3 days later, my itunes account was hacked into. My itunes information was scrambled. My itunes email, home address, and password were changed. Also, they didn't use my credit card which was attached to my account to make any purchases (they deleted my card and put someone else's card on my account to buy $100 worth of gift cards). I didn't receive any emails from Apple that my password, or email were changed, but I did get 2 receipts from the Itunes Store identifiying the purchases. Apple support fixed everything, but couldn't offer any explanation on what happened, other than to say my account was "modified". I don't like coincidences.
I freely admit that I didn't do enough to protect my login credentials as I used the same userid and password on multiple sites (since corrected). I still don't know how my account was accessed. I started to wonder if there may have been a key logger installed on my Imac without my knowing it. I am pretty careful with installing software and have purchase about 15 applications, all either from the itunes store, or from other reputable sources. I have never made any in-app purchases.
I understand that to install a key logger you would need to supply the admin password, which brings me to my question....
About 4 weeks ago, my wife was using the Imac on facebook. While she was there, the Imac experienced a hard crash. We had to do push and hold the button on the back of Imac to get it to shut down and reboot. When it came up, it required the admin password, and dropped me into a mode where it wouldn't recognize the external disk drive which was attached via USB. I needed to restart the machine and everything appeared to be normal. I assumed that this was Apples version of "safe" mode, but now I am not so sure. Could a key logger have been installed during this event? Is this expected behavior after a hard reset?
I have McAfee for Mac installed and it hasn't detected any threats, but McAfee is pretty wishy-washy on it's ability to detect key loggers. I am thinking about Macscan or Little Snitch. I would do a reinstall of the OS, if I only knew how.
Any help?your itunes accoutn have nothing to d with your computer
you can go to any computer with internet access in the world and
login into your itunes account if you have the appleID and password

I've just purchased a new 2014 15" MacBookPro to replace my much missed 17" MBP. I got the works: OS 10.9.4, 2.8GHz Intel i7, 16GB memory and a 1 TB SSD, but despite the expense, I still don't have a computer that works...
The problem is that every time I try to open any program from Office 2011, I immediately get the following window, for example for Word: "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." This happens each and every time I try to open Word or other Office 2011 component.
Thinking it might be a licensing issue, I purchased and downloaded a new copy of Office 2011 from Amazon and installed it on my new MBP. Same issue once again.
I tried to remove all copies of Office 2011 from the MBP, but the instructions provided by Microsoft required about three page and seventeen steps and the page was somehow corrupted and would not print in its entirety, nor would it e-mail as anything other than a link to the corrupted page. Not trusting my memory, I decided not to try this without adult supervision.
I used Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions, as described on an existing thread regarding the same problem, but to no avail.
I removed and later replaced the "Microsoft User Data" folder from the Documents folder, but that was no help.
I have copied the short version of the "Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0," below, for those of you with a deeper knowledge of the internal workings, or non-workings of things Mac when crossed with things MS.
