    Hey NinaChall,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues updating to iOS 7. It may be best to complete the update utilizing iTunes:
    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Update your device using iTunes
    1. Ensure that you're using the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Connect your device to your computer using the included USB cable.
    3. After iTunes opens, select your device when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
    4. Click "Check for Update" in the Summary pane to check for available updates.
    5. If an update is available, iTunes prompts you to download and install the update. Do not disconnect your device until the update has finished.
    Thanks,

    why would you say things like that here? if you are a windows one then stay there. but you are not polite or helpful and if can't use Apple i wonder why you would come here to tell all about your sad story. I don't understand that it has nothing to do with question asked.
    I own, or should I say have owned, several Apple products. Including a new MBP.
    I also use Windows.
    I will say anything I like in an effort to help people overcome problems they are having with Mac's and computers in general.
    Being a Apple Fanboy is not required for membership on this forum or trying to help other Mac users.
    And just how is suggesting to remove Lion and to go back to Snow Leopard not helping the OP in his quest to make his already owned and paid for MS Office software work? If it is isn't broken stop trying to fix it. Snow Leopard is a fine OS. Lion is still in Beta, only Apple hasn't told anyone. And yes I run Lion on my new MBP but I also have a partition with Snow Leopard on it.
    Thank you and have a great day.

  • After downloading Lion and getting the cloud, email doesn't come into Mail.

    After I got my iPhone 4s, I downloaded Lion to get iCloud so my contacts and calendars would sync. When I couldn't open Mail, I followed rkaufmann87's instructions and Mail opened fine. HOWEVER, now I'm not getting email into any of my four email accounts. What REALLY BIZARRE is that the email aren't coming into the servers when I go on the internet to look for the - OR the email comes in and then disappears. Help!!

    When you launch Mail and select the Inbox from the mailbox list, it's empty?

  • My Vista system crashed due to a corrupted windows file. When I reformatted C:/ & reloaded firefox & tbird, my bookmarks were gone. I have an image of the drive , but I don't know how to recover them and get the data back where I can access it.

    Vista system crashed due to a corrupted system file. The C drive was reformatted, and windows reloaded, along with the rest of my programs.
    Before the drive was reformatted, an image was made of it on a USB drive to save all the data. Now I need to know how to get the Bookmarks back for Firefox, and the Address Book back for Thunderbird.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the quick response. It worked very well, for both Firefox and Tbird.
    One hitch, until I remembered: those are all hidden files, in hidden folders. I had a devil of a time finding the "roaming" folder, until I found out how to unhide everything. In years past, I used DOS for that kind of thing. Explorer is much less user-friendly. Now that I know how to do it, it's simple.
    Thanks again for the guidance

  • When I installed Firefox 4, I somehow also received the Yahoo toolbar. How do I uninstall the Yahoo toolbar and get the Firefox toolbar instead?

    I installed Firefox 4 approximately 2-3 weeks ago.

    Additional information:
    I ran across this same problem once before when I upgrade to Firefox 3.x with one of the add-ons, but I can't remember how I was able to resolve it, if I ever did. The Firefox programmers should put in the option that when an upgrade to Firefox fines an incompatible add-on that it can be either updated to one that is compatible or it can be removed before the Firefox upgrade proceeds. I consider this to be a serious bug in Firefox.

  • My macbook pro is slow and gets the loading wheel often - Tried everything, been recommended to start using time machine

    Hey, my macbook pro started going slow out of nowhere and gets the loading wheel often, I can't close it without the charger attached otherwise it heats up real bad. I've been told to get a hard drive and back up everything through time machine and then reinstall it but wouldn't that just carry over whatever problem I'm having. I've tried everything that I've found on here like going into disk utility and repairing anything broken, I checked my memory and all that and it was good but I deleted anything unnecessary and put all my music and movies onto an external hard drive.

    If you don't already have backups, and you have any data that you want to keep, shut down the computer immediately and don't turn it on again until you have at least one external hard drive to use for backing up. Then see below.

  • I tried to reinstall iCal from Disk and get an error

    I deleted info.plist from my iCal package. I had read somewhere that if I deleted that all old files in my iCal would be deleted. But instead what happened is I get an error when I try to start "2008-05-19 15:29:46.693 iCal[9051:10b] No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting logout" So then I tried to reinstall iCal from Disk and get the error "The Installer could not validate the contents of the 'iCal' package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance"

    lizesc,
    Welcome back to Apple Discussions.
    I deleted info.plist from my iCal package.
    Just for the edification of other users, you should never alter any files inside of an application package.
    Drag your current copy of iCal to the trash, and then follow these steps to reinstall iCal:
    1. Insert your Leopard Installation disk into the computer.
    2. The disk will appear on your desktop.
    3. Double click on the "Optional Installs" folder.
    4. Double click on the "Optional Installs.mpkg."
    5. Click on (Continue) in Introduction.
    6. Click on (Continue) in Software License Agreement.
    7. Click on (Agree) to agree to the terms of the software license agreement.
    8. Click on the disclosure arrow ▶ next to Applications.
    9. Select (✓) iCal.
    10. Click (Continue).
    11. After iCal has been reinstalled, download and install the OS X 10.5.2 Combo Update.

  • HT1338 Tried to install update to Mountain Lion and get this message: OSXUpdCombo 10-1.8 image data corrupted.

    Tried to install update to Mountain Lion and get this message: OSXUpdCombo 10-1.8 image data corrupted.

    Try booting into the Safe Mode.  Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once. You can download from the Safe Mode.

  • When trying to install Mountain Lion I get an error message, Failed, recovery can't be created

    When trying to install Mountain Lion I get an error message, Failed, recovery can't be created

    My Mountain Lion install failed for the following reason:
    OS X can't be installed on the disk Macintosh HD, because a recovery system can't be created.
    The message went on:
    Visit www.apple.com/support/no-recovery to learn more.
    The page is about a different failure, but I'm assuming the reason for my failure is this one:
    The disk has a non-standard Boot Camp partition setup, in which further partitioning was performed after running Boot Camp Assistant, or the configuration that Boot Camp Assistant created was manually modified.
    The cure involves erasing the entire HD and starting from scratch, which in my case would involve backing up both the Mac and Windows sides, setting up Boot Camp again, reinstalling Windows XP and recovering everything from backups on both sides. I would rather not have Mountain Lion than go through all that, and I think it's unfair for Apple to expect me to.
    Because I don't recall doing anything off-piste when I set up Boot Camp in the first place (for a start, I'm not clever enough), I consider this episode an inadequacy in the Mountain Lion installer. As I won't be using the download, is it possible to get my money back?
