Trying to install search add-ons (top-rated, safe). I click install, restart and nothing happens. They do not appear in the search plugins folder.
Starting up with a new computer, I've been trying to install two search engine add-ons: easy youtube video downloader and
search IMDB. They are top rated so presumably safe and approved. I go through the whole process of installing them, and restart Firefox as instructed but nothing happens. I looked in the search plugins folder in Firefox (Program Files). I can see the search add-ons that were there when I first started on this computer, but none of the ones I'm trying to add are there. I've gone around and around on this repeatedly with no success. Please help.
Addon search engines aren't in the Firefox program files \searchplugins\ folder, they are in the \searchplugins\ folder in the user's respective '''Profile''' folder.

I can no longer open any attachments that are sent to me. I click on and get cannot preview (but have had this for ages). I am clicking on download and nothing happens. It does not download. I clicked to install a new version after updating and clicking repair. But still the attachments won't open including invoices I have received today. It is all attachments not just pdfs.

Then most likely it is not caused by Adobe Reader.
Anyway, perhaps someone has some idea, if you give us some details: operating system, browser, email client, ... -
I am trying to send photos to the cloud from my phone to my iPad but they are not appearing in the stream. I have read the instructions and I think I am doing it right or am I missing a part of the process?
HI,
Have you done this before ? And if so, is photo stream turned on on your iphone and ipad. and as Alfred DeRose pointed out they must both on the same icloud account.
If you're new to this, you might want to do some research. Photo stream is different from camera roll and albums. Many have been on this sight looking for their photos stored in icloud after restore, etc. and they're not there. Also, after thirty days icloud deletes your photos from photo stream.
So if you're not aware, you might want to google your question. We're using the camera connection kit soon and I am learning about it. From all I've read, I'm also not the biggest icloud fan. I use dropbox. We plan to put photos taken on ipad with a camera/iphones into albums on the ipad. We'll keep all on the sd card until (and after) they can be uploaded to a computer.

iPhoto - When I add new photos to iPhoto from my iMac they do not appear in the "Photos" library. They do appear in Last Import. Any thoughts?
If you are seeing your photos in "Last Import", the photos are somewhere in your library. Perhaps the dates are wrong, and you do not see the photos arranged by date, where you expect them to be.
Select one of the photos on "Last Import", then ctrl-click it and select "Show in Event". That will take you to the event in event view. -

When trying to do a recover and update an old iPod touch, "unknown error" occurs and nothing happens. I have followed all the trouble shooting suggestions but nothing works. Ideas?
Hi msclaude,
Welcome to the Support Communities! I'm not sure from your post what steps you have tried, but it sounds like you may need to use recovery mode to address the issue with your unresponsive iPod touch.

If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You can put your iOS device into recovery mode, then restore it using iTunes.
Use recovery mode
You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.
To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.Get more help
Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.
If you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.
I hope this information helps ....

I just downloaded four books through iTunes. I tried 5 times to sync the books onto my iPhone. They did NOT appear on my iPhone. Previous books synced without problems. I tired syncing ALL books, and also selected book by selecting the new books. No luck. What do/can I do now. iTunes prevents me downloading again. The books show on the computer. I cannot redownload direct to my iPhone now as iTunes indicates the books are already downloaded.What do/can I do now?

I tried re-installing Firefox - no change. From Internet Explorer all buttons are active - this only happens in Firefox. 'Some' buttons on 'some' sites are active. But most buttons are inactive - the cursor placed above the button does nothing.
Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause this issue. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

The phone itself is not working either. It shows the apple icon and a horizontal bar (black outlined in white). Thanks in advance for any help.
You need to press the power button and the home button at the same time for a few seconds until your phone does a recovery. At least you will have a phone that works with all your contacts. But then you will have the same problem alot of other people are having since this update. You will lose all your music and apps. When you plug into ITunes it will have 2 options after that. Restore from back-up or set up like new. Back-up does nothing and restore to new you will lose everthing (music, Apps)). The only fix so far after your recovery is to plug your phone into another puter that has your ITunes account on it. It doesn't have to have any music or apps, just an account so you can sync your phone. After that plug your phone back into the puter with all your stuff on it and it will re-sync and add all your stuff...Hope this helps

My iphone is stuck on the itune screen. I have tried pushing the on/off and bottom buttons and the phone will turn off but come right back to the itune screen I also tried plugging my iphone into my computer and holding down the bottom button to see if i could get to the restore screen. Nothing, just the itune screen. Any ideas what to do to fix my phone?

Please help me get my i phone screen to respond. I have suddenly found it won't respond to touch and I can't answer calls or read messages. I've tried the reset by holding the home button and off button till the logo appears to no avail. A box sometimes comes round the date and the slide to unlock sign. Any help would be great!
Try a full restore. If the screen is still unresponsive after the reset then its a harsware problem.

I install apps from iTunes but they're not appearing on the iTouch.
I've downloaded several iTouch 4th gen compatible apps but a few of them won't appear on the iTouch. When I update from iTunes it shows them on my device but they're not actually there. I'm using the latest software update so that isn't the issue. Any ideas?
That's EXACTLY what was wrong. I had an age restriction for my daughter's apps and the missing ones were outside the parameters. Thanks for your help!
