The install seems to have stopped at "about a minute" time remaining and I don't know what to do.

My MacBook Pro installing Lion hasn't budged in over an hour and I'd say that's much longer than roughly a minute so I'm starting to become concerned. Any ideas as to what I should do?

Sounds like it is at that point...since you got so far it is not clear just will happen when you restart, so you might want to be prepared to go to the Recovery HD if there are problems starting up...restart holding the Command and R keys if it will not startup on the normal hard drive.
Post what happens when you hit the button and restart.

When making a photo book, my iPhoto freezes during uploading the book to the store after assembly. I have attempted this 4 times now and I don't know what to do! I know the file size is massive due quantity of large images. How can I get past this?

How can I change the screen size of my games in facebbok? Somehow they grew and I don't know what I did.

When I bring up facebook on firefox it is a good size. My games were good before today but now they are so huge I can't play them. I think I must have hit a button by mistake but I don't know how to fix it. Can you help me?

I have a unwrapped copy of Mac OSX Tiger and i don't know what to do with it

Hey everyone,
So i don't have a Macpowerbook and i have a copy of mac osx tiger. It was originally my mom's dad's. How ever he has passed away and my mom's mom wants us to sell the osx tiger. What should i do?

If it is a grey colored disc then it is machine specific and only useful to somebody who has the machine model for which it was made. If it is black then it is a retail install disc.
2 years ago you could have sold a retail disc at a premium price. Now I am not so sure. Tiger is now 4th generation behind Lion, Snow Leopard and Leopard. Apple stopped supporting Tiger years ago and fewer and fewer other software packages are being issued that still run on Tiger. Firefox stopped supporting Tiger, Flash (used on just about every web site out there) is no longer being updated, etc. I think the writing is on the wall. One of my favorite web sites that uses Flash stopped working for me yesterday.
A machine specific disc is really handy for somebody who has that machine and completely useless to anybody who doesn't.
The best thing to do is go on e-bay and see what is actually being paid (not asked) for Tiger, remembering to make sure it matches the copy you have. If you do decide to sell it, make sure you tell the purchaser exactly which model disc it is. We've seen many people on here who bought a disc only to find it wouldn't install on their computer.

I am installing itunes to a laptop and have not sync device to this lap. It is saying that it must first restore device. The problem is I have over 2000 pictures and don't want to lose them. Now my phone is in restore mode and I don't know what to do. I don't want to proceed and loose these very important photos of family. What do I do to get it out of restore mode? My phone will not allow me to do anything to it at this point. I have the itunes downloaded on the laptop now. When I push the button for the phone it just shows Itunes and plug. I can't even call or open phone up.

Unfortunately... Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...

Using a computer, other than the one you have regularily been Syncing and Backing up to, was the begining of your issue.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Something keeps trying to download on my mac and I don't know what it is. It is not in the apple store and just comes out nowhere and request for my password to download something and I don't know what it is. How to make this stop?

Something keeps trying to download on my mac and I don't know what it is. It is not in the apple store and just comes out nowhere and request for my password to download something and I don't know what it is. How to make this stop? It pops up every single day.

Erica,
     I can, with 99.99% certainty, tell you that you are absolutely right in not wanting to download or install this "Helper," whatever it is (but we can be equally certain it would not "help" anything).
     I cannot comment as to Oglethorpe's recommendation of 'adwaremedic'; I am unfamiliar with it. His links to the Apple discussion and support pages warrant your time and attention.
     It might be really simple -- Trying looking in your Downloads folder, trash anything that you don't know with certainty is something you want to keep, and then Secure Empty your Trash. Then remove the AdBlock extension, LastPass, and Web of Trust extensions to Safari and re-boot. If the issue goes away, still be extraordinarily careful in the future.
     Unfortunately, it's probably not going to be that simple to get rid of, in which case I'd then try the line by line editing in HT203987.
     I have no further suggestions (other than a complete wipe and re-install...but that's a pain because trying to restore from Time Machine would simply ... restore the Mal).
   For the rest of us, please post when you find a solution.
     Best.
     BPW

So it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HI,
If your old version of iTunes is still working - then I sugest you stick with that.
iTunes 11 is a lousy update - It will not retain your playlists, you can't find and delete duplicates... and a whole arry of oyher issues. (have a look around this forum to see how many issues IT11 gives people)
Just a friendly advise and warning :-)

I bought a new iPod 5 generation and I have music on my old iPod 4 generation and I don't know how to get that music off. Because I don't have the CDs anymore to get them on my new iPod.

You need to have those as they are the license to use the music you RIP'd from them.
