Since loading Yosemite, My system seems to have slowed down abit and was hoping to find a way to get the speed up again.

I have an older IMAC 2007, and have just been able to load Yosemite on. When I click on anything, It now hesitates before going to the next page. Is it just the older system or is there a way to clean up the system to get it running faster. Thanks in advance

HT1199 I have a 3.2 GHz Intel Core i3, 27 inch, Mid 2010. It used to run fast but now it seems to have slowed down like when surfing or opening applications. I downloaded all the updates restarted but it seem slow. How do I speed it up? Thanks

I currently have Photoshop CS5 standard, and want to updgrade to CS5 Extended to get the 3D capabilities. Is this possible, I don't see any CS5 upgrades available?

I currently have Photoshop CS5 standard, and want to upgrade to CS5 Extended to get the 3D capabilities. Is this possible, I don't see any CS5 upgrades available? I tried to download a new trial version as well, but my current operating system will not support it, so I'd like to stick w/ a version of CS5 that will allow me to work in 3D. What are my options?

You can upgrade to CS6 extended for $400

The apps I created from "add to homescreen" have turned white and have a few lines and circles in it. How can I get the picture back on them?

Those aren't apps; they're bookmarks to websites. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? If all else fails, you can just re-do the shortcuts.

Finder/Graphics seem to have slowed down

I've been having a problem (or possibly two) lately: If I'm running several programs, or one very intensive program like Mathematica, my Dock suddenly takes a long time to appear when I mouse to the edge, and/or clicking on a Finder window does not bring the window to the front, although I can move it around behind the other windows.
I have 25 GB of disk space, but only 512 MB of RAM, and I can hear the drive going alot. But it seems to be slowing down graphics such as the Finder windows or browser loading drastically as well - I thought graphics were handled by a separate system?
Is there anything other than increasing RAM that would alleviate this issue? It didn't happen before.
Oh, and I've repaired permissions and such. Also, I just recently had to have the logic board replaced, because it stopped reading the computer's power supply status.
Thanks for any suggestions you could give.

Hi Jim,
Maxing out the RAM will help quite a bit, when the OS needs more RAM it uses VM, or Disk Space, and Laptop drives aren't very fast either, so a faster bigger one would help, they sell 7200 RPM ones now with more cache also.
25 GB might sound like a lot of free space, but let's say it's a 100 GB drive, then whenever the OS needs to use some for Virtual Memory, it basically has a one in four chance of finding it right away, and that will most likely be very fragmented, so the HD must jump back & forth thousands of times to write one file.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files, but you should see some speed improvement!

Yes - via iTunes on your computer.
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Click on your iPad name under devices. Click on the Summary Tab in the iTunes window on the right and then click on Check for Update.

HT202297 The Reminders app on my OS X version 10.9 doesn't seem to have badge icons for apps that are overdue. How do I get the badge icons for the app?

Being overtly organised, I assign due times to all my reminders on the reminder app. Recently, I realised that the badge icons (detailing the number of overdue reminders) do not pop up anymore. How do I get them to reappear again?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
There are two Applications folders: /Applications (in the root level of the hard drive) and ~/Applications (in your user folder).
If you have a look at the bottom part of the screenshot, you can see where Chess is stored, and it indicates that it's stored in /Applications, so you are looking for applications in the wrong folder.
Open a Finder window, go to Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Sidebar, and mark Applications. Then, close the Preferences window and you will be able to access to the Applications folder in the Finder sidebar. Another option would be to go to View menu (on the menu bar) and type:
/Applications

I seem to have a lot of Apple IDs. Is there a way to get a list of them and kill them all off until there is just one left?

I can't get on the icloud because my Apple ID is a birthday, password and email that are not mine. How do I fix this?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
This article provides more information about Activation Lock.

HT1925 I have tried everything here and iTunes still won't open.I now get the message, The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.

Recently I have not been able to open iTunes,I tried removing and reinstalling it but still won't open. I now get the message The file "iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Any suggestions on how to get iTunes to work again ?
Thanks

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Had to crash my computer. Lost my recovery key. Have my iphone paired with previous install. is there any way to get the data back?

In order to upgrade my computer from Windows xp to Windows 7, I lost access to firefox without thinking to generate a recovery key. Is there any way to get my data back?

If the only thing you have paired to the account is an iPhone the answer is that unfortunately no. The iPhone client (Firefox Home) is just a "consumer" of the Sync data and can't do much.
My best advice is to keep the iPhone synced to have access to bookmarks and manually transfer them to your new profile.
Sorry to be the carrier of the bad news.

Since my update, I can't adjust the volume from my keyboard...the volume keys have a locked symbol that shows when I press them. I checked System preferences but can't find a way to get the lock off. Thoughts?

I can't adjust my volume from the keyboard volume controls... they seem to be locked. I tried system preferences, but couldn't find how to "unlock" them. Thoughts?

Did you try unchecking this function? It seems to work in reverse of what you would expect, or is that just my imagination?

I previously owned an iPhone and still have an iCloud backup of it. Is there a way to get the pictures from iCloud synced to my Mac since I no longer have my iPhone?

Photo stream is not what I am trying to get my pictures from....I want to get my camera roll that was backed up to iCloud, and have verified that it is still there, to my Mac. I can't find any answer online because every support document only offers how to sync Photo Stream, which is not what I am trying to restore.

Hi!
You will need to get your Sync Key from your Android Device and then follow this simple steps:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20sync%20Firefox%20settings%20between%20computers#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
In order to get your Sync Key from your Android Device you will need this add-on:

This should work. Let me know if you need further help.

TS3694 I have an Iphone 3g and when I try to restore it I get the following: The iphone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015).

Can somebody help please!
Thanks!

I would like to know if there is a better to fix this since this iphone has been jailbroken. Google search only shows stuff that talks about installing software that has to do with jailbreaking. I just need to restore back to normal. Thank you!
