    Trying to re-install iTunes and the message "Apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." But I don't know what to do? Please can someone help, I'm not the most technologically advanced person.

    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.

  • I want to update my OS from X10.6.8 to the next level but I don't know what that is. Can someone help?

    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. Use the code to redeem a download of Mountain Lion from the App Store. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later.
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model
                 Identifier 5,1 or later.
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later.
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

  • HT201318 i live in Turkey. i want to cancel the storage upgrade that i have purchased only one week ago. i know that in 15 days it is my right to cancel and to get the payment refund. but  i don't know where to apply? i can not contact anywhere via email

    i do not know where/how to apply for cancellation of a recently made storage purchase and get the payback. any help for apple contact information (about icloud) is appreciated.

    You can cancel an iCloud storage upgrade but only within 15 days of buying:
    Apple seem to have made this as difficult as possible. You may be able to do this using http://expresslane.apple.com - Click on 'More products and services', then 'iCloud', 'Account and setup' then 'This topic is not listed'. Explain the situation in the box provided and wait for a response - include a phone number. However you may find you cannot proceed without entering a hardware serial number which is still eligible for AppleCare.
    In that event you will need to phone them directly, using the Apple Online Store number given at the bottom of this page. The first person you speak to may tell you to do it from the iCloud website but this is not possible. Politely insist on escalating the issue to a more senior person and eventually you should be able to get through to someone who can deal with this (you may have to wait for them to call you back) - you will be asked security questions and for part of your credit card number to identify yourself.
    (If it is more than 15 days since you purchased the storage you cannot cancel it for a refund; you can downgrade your plan as from your next renewal date. Please see
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm12eecb08e7 )

  • HT3231 My PC comes up with a message that says there was an error when trying to set up the Migration Assistant - but I don't know what!?!?

    I am trying to use Migration Assistant but it tells me that there is an error when using it - but it doesn't tell me what and I only have teh option to quit!

    I would recommend carefully reading Pondini's guide on using Migration Assitant, if you still have trouble you have 90 days of free telephone support from Apple via AppleCare. While they are more versed in OS X than MS Windows they may be able to help you. Pondini's guide is found by clicking Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips

  • New mac user concerned about my mac hot monitor, read something about checking the activity monitor but I don't know what to do from there'

    Please help

    If your system is <90 days old, or you have Applecare, call Apple for support. Here are the numbers.
    If over 90 days and you don't have Applecare, install iStat Pro to see what is heating up. You can bring up Activity Monitor (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) to see if any programs are churning the CPU keeping it busy with 20% to 30% + usage. Be aware that the newer systems run hotter than older systems, and this is generally OK. Also, the ambient temperature of the room has a lot to do with system component temps.  

  • HT1338 I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

    I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

    The "disk" is your startup volume, which is usually called "Macintosh HD" (unless you changed it).  Your iTunes media files (such as song files), and basically everything else, are stored on that volume (unless you changed it).
    You should create some free space as soon as possible, because the system (OS) and applications use free space to write temporary files as part of normal operations.  If there is very little free space available, your system may start to bog down and feel slow because it's not running efficiently.
    You can empty whatever is currently in the Trash by doing a click-hold (or right-click) on the "waste basket" icon in the Dock, and selecting Empty Trash.  A good place to look for files you may no longer need is your Downloads folder.  There is usually a link to your Downloads folder in the sidebar of a Finder window.  (The folder itself is located in your user home folder.)
    You can see how much free space you currently have by selecting Macintosh HD on your Desktop (or in the sidebar of a Finder window), and selecting Get Info from the File menu.  You can also right-click on it and select Get Info from the menu that comes up (or hit Cmd-I on keyboard).  The Info window shows Capacity and Available for the volume.  Available is the free space.  It would be best to keep Available at least 10% of Capacity; getting it to 20% or more would be better.
    If you can't free up enough free space by deleting things you do not need anymore, you should get an external hard drive and save some your files there.  That's actually how I run my iMac; most of my user files are stored on external USB and FireWire drives.

  • I'm trying to connect to my home wifi with my imac gh5. After I enter the password it says connection timeout or password incorrect. I know there's no issue with the connection but I don't know what else to do. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    What is the make & model of your home Wi-Fi router that you are attempting to connect your G5 iMac to? Which exact model of iMac do you have?
    What wireless security type is your router using: WEP, WPA, or WPA2? If you temporarily disable wireless security, can the iMac connect to it now?

  • Hay. i change the screen LCD in IPAD 2 3G but i don't know what happen. She was working and every thing it's ok. One time i turn off the ipad and turn on more time, i don't see good in LCD the  brightness is to low and i can see any thing

    Assuming you mean that you performed the repair yourself, it would seem that you either obtained a defective screen or you did some sort of damage when you replaced the screen. You can try asking for assistance on ifixit.com, a site dedicate to those attempting their own repairs, or you can take the iPad to a shop and pay them to try to correct the problem for you. Apple will no longer touch your iPad now that you've attempted your own repairs.

  • HT201359 I'm trying to set up my purchase account, but it keeps asking me about an iTunes code I have to feel  in but I don't know what is that code and where do I get it?

    I'm trying to set up my purchase account, but it keeps asking me about an iTunes code I have to feel  in but I don't know what is that code and where do I get it?

    THe iTunes gift code is an optional field, you don't have to fill it in - gift cards are an alternative method of paying for iTunes content, but as they are not available inall countries (and they are country-specific, they can only be used in the country in which they were issued), you may not be able to fill it in anyway. If they are available in your country then you might be able to buy cards from Apple, supermarkets, electrical stores etc
    If you have a credit card then you can use that as your payment method instead. Otherwise there are instrutions on this page for how to create a new account without giving a credit card number (it won't with existing, or partially created, accounts) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Lightroom says that I have the latest version, but Lightroom does not recognize RAW captures from my new Panasonic DMC-GH4. When will an update for this camera be available?

    Lightroom says that I have the latest version, but Lightroom does not recognize RAW captures from my new Panasonic DMC-GH4. When will an update for this camera be available?

    The GH4 must be very new as it’s not listed in Adobe’s supported cameras, so wait until the next version of LR.  Usually there is one every 3-4 months with a release-candidate available at Adobe Labs before that:  http://labs.adobe.com/

  • My ipad is stuck on the apple logo and wont return to the home screen. I plugged it into my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. Can someone please help?

    Hi, I'm having trouble with my Ipad 2. I was recently playing a game and my ipad just shut off on me. Then when I turned it back on it was stuck on the Apple Logo and it won't go to the home screen at all. I plugged it in my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. I left it charged hoping the apple logo would dissappear but it didn't and now for some reason the battery is always dead.  I really need help. Does anybody have any suggestions? Please.

    Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
    Reboot 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.

    Quit Creative Cloud desktop application .
    Launch Photoshop cc 2014 application from Applications folder:
