    Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
3. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405

We just moved from the United States to Costa Rica. The first two days my mac worked great. Then all of a sudden I was trying to use a game application and the screen went black and there is a white cursor which I can move around, but I can't escape it

We just moved from the United States to Costa Rica. The first two days my mac worked great. Then all of a sudden I was trying to use a game application and the screen went black and there is a white cursor which I can move around, but I can't escape it. When I restart it seems okay and I see my main screen, but only for a second and then it goes black again.

Since updating to iOS 6, my 4th gen iPod touch, and my 3rd gen iPad has sound in and out. Sometimes it's on, and then all of a sudden, no sound. I've tried everything from restarting to fully resetting each one starting fresh, but nothing. Please help.

Did you manage to find a solution? Help please if possible. Regards Az

all of a sudden my itunes wont come up when i hit the desktop icon. un and re installed many times, tried new users, it finally gave me "you need to reinstall sqmapi.dll " im a noob and i have know idea what that is or where i can get it. i cant open any file or library that has anything to do with itunes except safari and quicktime are fine. im about to pull out whats left of my hair.

Okay, that's got one thing ruled out at least.
Can you check something for me, big? I'd like to see if iTunes launches with the Bonjour Service disabled.
In your Start menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".
In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Disabled":
... and click OK.
Restart the PC and try launching iTunes. Does it open this time?

My firefox starts and works normally for a while then all of a sudden it switches to safe mode. I restart the computer and the same thing happens again.

When I restart the computer as before it works normally for a few minutes then all of a sudden it's in safe mode again. It just started doing this a few days ago, I never had a problem before and it's really annoying as I end up having to restart my computer every few minutes.

Try to update firefox to the latest 12.0 and check it again. If you have the problem again try to a new profile see: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles Managing profiles] , see also: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Profiles Profiles] .

Please can you help. I have an iPhone 4 which up until a month ago was working fine. Now all of a sudden I can't make calls on it. The phone will ring both ends but will not connect to each other. The speaker button is highlighted with no sound.

I can't really remember what I wrote in the heading but I am desperate for help. I have basically got a very expensive iPod. Calls will connect so the call ticker will go round but there isno sound from either side. Also the speakerphone button will be constantly pressed but still no sound. I have restored it many times, sent it back to apple but they could find no fault. I have done everything but with no joy. I just want to make phone calls!!!

A minor point, but it may avoid a little confusion if, instead of saying "black" in reference to the iPhone 5s, say "space gray":

Hi, I have a problem with my Epson Stylus NX420. I had it connected and it worked fine but then all of a sudden it just stopped. It said it was offline, but it wasn't. So I tried to reinstall the printer, so i deleted it and clicked the button to add

Hi, I have a problem with my Epson Stylus NX420. I had it connected to my computer, and it worked fine. But I preformed a remodel and before the printer was connected to a windows desktop, and now it is not. I don't know if this could the be the cause of the problem. But I tried to print something and it showed me the printer as offline, but it wasn't. Thus to try to fix this, as I have done before I deleted the printer and tried to add it again. But as I went to add it, the printer was not there. I have searched the internet for an answer and I have found nothing. I do not understand why this has happened, nor how to fix it. Please help me.

Because you had the printer connected to Windows, the print queue on your Mac was for this connection. With you moving the printer away from the Windows computer, the print queue on the Mac will no longer work and will show offline. So for the new connection of the printer you have to create a new print queue.
Now the question is; how is the printer connected to the Mac. If it is connected by USB to the Mac then it should appear in the Default Add Printer view. If it is connected to the Mac via some other method, then could you reply with how it is connected.
If it is connected to the Mac by USB then the most likely cause for the printer not appearing in the Default Add Printer view is thenUSB printer cable. So try disconnecting it and reconnecting it or even try another USB printer cable.

I used to be able to open pdf-files but then all of a sudden I have problem opening them. Why? I have already tried all the steps in Troubleshooting.

I have also recently installed Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional. Could that be the reason?

When transferring songs from iTunes to phone it was doing it ok then all of a sudden it started to say iTunes cannot pick up information from phone restore to factory settings I am afraid if I do this I will loose all phone numbers pictures and songs anyo

When transferring music from iTunes to iPhone after about 3 downloads a message come up saying iTunes cannot get information from phone and I should restore phone to factory settings I do not wont to do this because I am worried I will loose all phone contacts ,pictures,and songs anyone know how I can resolve this

Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data, which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair.
Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air such as with an Apple iCloud account, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail.
Photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
In addition, contacts and photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup.

I'm using Firefox version 3.6 on my '02 Mac G4. When I installed it, it worked fine, But then all of a sudden the "save" and "save as" windows stopped coming up at all when I selected "save" anywhere in Firefox. What happened and how do I fix it?

I downloaded and installed Firefox on my '02 Mac G4. It worked great. Now I have version 3.6. But my weird problem is one day when I ran it, the "save" and "save as" windows stopped popping up at all. I'd left click a picture and select "save as" and nothing would happen. I'd go to the menu and select "save" and still no window would pop up. It would just act as if nothing had been clicked. No loading icon or anything and no "save as" window. I've never been able to get it to work. The volunteer in the live support chat typed "That IS weird.." I tried his suggestion but it did nothing. I may have deleted the plist preferences file in the preferences library folder to get it started again after a freeze up threw it out of whack but I've never had this happen before.And i've tried doing that again to see if that would restore it. But the plist always regenerates itself and the "save as " window still never appears when I run Firefox. The "save" window works just fine in every other program on my Mac, but not in Firefox. Weird..

Can you help me on something? I restored my iPod and everything I had was gone. (What I Wanted) But then when I looked at my Usage It said I only have 22.5 GB Available and I Used 6.0 But I didn't. I also looked at my Backup storage and it still had all of my backup from before I restored. I deleted all my backup because it said I used all of my Backup Available. And now when I try and backup it says there is no more room or whatever to backup and Its 5/5.

My phone was sitting on the table, with nothing turned on, and all of a sudden it sounds like there is air coming out of my speakers.

My phone was sitting on the table, with nothing turned on, and all of a sudden it sounds like there is air coming out of my speakers. It does this for 1 minute straight, then will stop. When I pick it up, then set it back down, it does it again.

No nothing will show up on the screen.. If I push the 'home' center button it continues doing it, same with the sleep/wake button.
I thinking it may be static out of my speakers --but I don't understand why all of a sudden it is dong this. I have had no problems with this phone, until now.

Unless your bank's website is insecure, you're fine. Go up to the Safari "Search" bar and type in Rapport. You'll be amazed. It may "work" on PCs, but definitely not Macs. And it's not needed for Macs.
