Sound Virus - Any suggestions on how to get rid of it
The last couple of days I have sound playing in the background that is not from any program I'm running. Sounds like a **** playing but sound only no video. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?
HI,
If a widget isn't the culprit, open System Preferences/Universal Access and selec the Seeing tab.
Make sure Voice Over is not selected.

There is a particularly intrusive BMW app advert that pops up when playing Words with Friends that I can't get rid of. There is no exit option (most unethical). Any solutions for getting rid of the advert out ther?
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

My iPad has suddenly developed a tinny sound. Any ideas on how to get rid of the noise
Crackling noise on my iPad . Help! Please.
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

Photoshop elements 10 will not migrate to my new macbook pro/retina display. There is no CD/DVD player on this machine. Any suggestions on how to get Elements onto my machine? Yes, I have the disk(s). Am I going to have to buy an external CD/DVD player to load this one program:(
I have ordered a USB3 BluRay/DVD/CD player/burner and will use that both with my iMac ( in which the Superdrive seems to be failing ) and the MBPro Retina I just bought .

She has never synced her ipod touch to iTunes, any suggestions of how to get around the password without deleting everything she has on the device? Apple support recommended recovery mode, but doesn't that erase everything on the ipod?
You are out of luck but a Date Recovery company may be able to help if the iPod does not have iOS 8.
If there is an iCloud backup you can restore from that.

We just installed maverick and the new final cut. On 2 separate computers we have had it crash while using final cut and have lost the project. Now we are reading that our time machine is not working with maverick. Any suggestions on how to get timeline back from the new final cut? Thought it was suppose to save automatically.

Hi, the App Store icon has been removed from my iPad even after synching and updating. Any suggestions on how to get it back to be able to update / purchase apps?
If you do not have, or remember, the passcode for Restrictions, the only option available to you is to reset the device to factory settings via itunes.

Hi. I have Snap To Grid and By Kind enabled in Lion but it's not working. When I trash an icon, instead of snapping the remaining icons to the By Kind grid, a space is left where the trashed icon was. Any suggestions on how to get Snap To Grid working?
Where are you talking about the Desktop?
I don't see where it is possible to set both Snap to Grid and By Kind they seem to be mutually exclusive.
And then
If I have Snap to grid set I get the behavior you describe. If I have By Kind set the icons stay together and close up the space from the deleted icon.

Thin lines inside letters when overprinting
hello all. I overprint a K area with a C one (40%C, set to multiply), both containing the same text white in the same position, plus 0.3 border in C (sort of manual supertrapping, I don't trust the printer in the case at hand). Looks fine in InDesign
