Strange folder in App. Support

Trying to free up space on my hd I found this folder: "WB 2004 download" in my "application support" folder. It contains 333 items that are basically of two types: mb199701.001 through mb200706.004 and a bunch of .gif's that appear to be old news items (photo w. a caption).
What is this and can I get rid of it?

This appears to be the files that are used to update World Book (hence WB). They date from 2004 (hence the 2004, but you guessed that ). Do you have World Book installed? Or have you migrated from a machine that did?
Regards

  • Can't use any app utilities folder b/cNOT SUPPORTED ON THIS ARCHITECTURE

    Can't use any app utilities folder b/cNOT SUPPORTED ON THIS ARCHITECTURE
    in my macs utilities folder under applications where you find things such as disk utility and system profiler i have a problem. i am unable to open any of them. none of them have icons. they all have an icon that looks like a piece of paper and the ruler, pant brush pencil, that make an A over it. i don't have any of the original icons. like this one for system profiler.
    http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tuaw.com/media/2009/09/profilericon.jpg
    when i try to open one of them up i get a message that says YOU CAN"T OPEN THE APPLICATION (insert which ever app here) BECAUSE IT IS NOT SUPPORTED ON THIS ARCHITECTURE.
    i have had my mac since 2008 and have not used any of the apps in my utilities folder.

    That sounds like something has gone wrong with your system.
    Do you have the original install discs?
    Download the 10.5.8 Combo update from Apple.com, install it, and see if that helps.

  • Strange folder appears out of no where under Macintosh HD

    Today I noticed a strange folder with a strange name "㉠ㆨ䞦າ" under root folder appeared in one of the macs in my computer lab, initially i thought it could be someone messing with the computer, but It's zero k in size and the date says it was created this afternoon when no one was in the lab. Is it possible if this folder could be created by a "virus" or some random program?

    No. Not a virus. Most likely something created by some Adobe app, which is notorious for that kind of thing. Delete it and forget it.

  • I can't find iweb folder in application support

    Hi
    I formatted my macbook. Before format I back up domain.sites2.
    Now I want to import domain.sites2 to new macbook (I mean formatted macbook)
    I read forums and I saw that I have to copy+ paste this file to  library/application support/iweb
    But there is no iweb folder in application support.
    I double clicked domain.sites2 while located in desktop; İweb opened but I can't see my older pages.
    Please help me  
    Engin

    Leave the old domain file in the iWeb folder and use the following app to see if it will let you open that particular domain file.
    To open your domain file in Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script"/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"
    delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files. 
    Due to Sandboxing by the operating system you may get a message that the app can't be opened because it's from an unregistered developer. In that case you can Control (right) - click on the app and select Open from the contextual menu OR create your own app from the code above using Applescript Editor.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9 ,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    You only need to run the app once or if you want to open a different domain file.

  • Pro App Support 4.0.1 won't install

    I've downloaded pro app support but when i try to install it I get a message like: "you cannot install pro app support on this volume. This volume is not eligible." I get the message whether i choose my system drive or any others. None of the drives are anywhere near full.
    Thanks, JP Any ideas?

    Help !
    i've got exactly the same problem with ProApp Support 4.0.2.
    I tried many things like moving the proapp installer in my 'applications' folder, etc... it just doesn't work, i have no volume eligible for installing it...
    Please !

  • HT1349 I keep trying to install itunes and it says apple app support error2

    I am trying to install itunes, keeps coming uo apple app support error2

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Pro App Support

    I just bought Logic Studio. I installed and it says I need the latest pro application support. No big deal, I just downloaded it off the Apple website. When I get to the screen that asks where you want to install it, I cannot see where I am supposed to install it. I click my hard drive (the only thing there) and it says "You cannot install Pro App Support on this volume, the software can only be installed on the start up disk". What does this mean?! There is no place to install it.
    Can someone please help me?

    I don't have Logic Studio but I have FCP Studio and I ran the Pro Application update through Apple's software update and it installed fine. Maybe you have to navigate to the Logic Studio Application folder for it to install? When it asks you to choose the location, double click on Macintosh HD, double click Applications, then click once on the Logic Studio folder.

  • Just did the iTunes update that iTunes said was available now iTunes won't open, keep getting Runtime Error message.  R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.

    Just did the iTunes update that iTunes said was available, now iTunes won't open.  I just keep getting a Runtime Error message. 
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.
    Is anyone else having this problem?
    I tried to re-install and got the following message:  iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
    Does this mean I have now lost everything?

    I just had the same error: 
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.
    I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and did a complete removal and reinstallation of iTunes. You MUST follow the directions here exactly...it's more than just iTunes that must be removed, and it MUST be done in the order in which the support article says.  I followed the exact instructions, and iTunes is back on my machine (no more C runtime error) and you do NOT lose your music...it's all in my library, as it was before.
    Good luck!

  • HT4314 My Game Center App support button sends me to the website of the developer, and they say to ask Apple for help. It's a cycle I can't break. I just want to fix my game!

    I downloaded the Sims Freeplay app some time ago and it's been smooth sailing.
    I'm a bit of an achievement hunter when I play my games, so I bought a rather expensive home to earn one particular achievement.
    My "Pro Skater Deam Pad" was built, but the achievement was never awarded. Odd. So I restarted my iPad and thus the game. Still nothing.
    I've had the house for a few days now and I still haven't been awarded an achievement, so I went to the App Store and clicked App Support.
    It sent me to the EA games homepage, and after scouring the help center with no luck, I was finally pushed into making an account so I could ask my question.
    Lo and behold, the EA games cannot access the Game Center or the App Store or anything else like that, and sent me back to Apple.
    Repeat the cycle here.
    So here's my question and I'd love some answers ::
    "What do I need to do to fix the glitch? The app is up to date and is otherwise running perfectly fine."

    I doubt this warranty is still being honoured, since there was a 2 year time limit.
    But just to be sure you could contact Apple directly:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbook/
    (We are all volunteers here, not Apple employees.)
    Good luck.

  • Which 3rd party apps support Apple Digital AV Adapter?

    I'm trying to find a list of which apps support video out through the Apple Digital AV Adapter. (I'm using an iPhone 4, so there's no mirroring function.) I was delighted to discover that I could stream 720p video to the living room TV using Home Sharing. It works beautifully! Now, I'm wondering about other non-Apple apps like EyeTV for example. Can they stream through the adapter also?

    Thank you for answering, but sadly, I wasn't able to find these informations in the app descriptions. Just Real Racing 2 and MC3 had informations about supporting TV out.
    Do you know where to find them?
