Update takes long and its never done at the end of each day.

I also download adope reader on several occasion thinking this would help, but installation is never complete. It keep saying there's a problem that needs to be reported to Microsoft. Please help.

What version of Reader are you trying to update?
If Reader XI, download the update from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5715

Why is my itunes trying to update my iphone and its not connected to the computer?

This would be more for the technical side of the house, but why would the system try to update my iPhone and its not connected to the computer? is there a bug in the system?

Update or sync?
As of iOS 5 updates and sync can be done wirelessly, over Wi-Fi.

I down loaded the update for 4 and when I get to the end where is you click finish, it tells me to close firefox, but I do not have it open. Now I can not get in to Firefox at all. PLEASE Help.

You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
You should still have your profile folder, so when you install 3. you will get your bookmarks and other user data back.
There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

Hi Robertfrom Denver.
Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

I'm considering buying CC but need to know does it allow me to store photos taken while on location via a laptop and then once I am back home retrieve them in my pc through CC, thus enabling me to keep memory cards empty at the end of each day shooting?

This would be the main reason for purchasing CC but I can't seem to find the info to answer my question if anyone can help?

You can place photos in the Creative Cloud Files folder on your computer and they will be synced up to the file storage. You can try a free trial with 2 GB of file storage to see if the system works for you before purchasing.

Word File Takes Longer and Longer to Save

I’ve been working daily on the same 100-page document for several months. I had no problems with the document under Word 2003. However, under Word 2010 the file grows in size over time, and saving the file takes longer and longer to the point where there
are significant timeouts (Word is “not responding”) whenever an automatic save occurs.
I don't want to diable automatic saves because Word does crash for me on rare occasions, generally if I do something "too fast".
I’ve found a workaround for the problem, and every three weeks or so after the automatic saves have become painfully long I copy the document to the clipboard (except for the last paragraph mark) and then I open a new document based on the relevant template
and I paste the clipboard contents into the new document. I rename the old version of the document and the new version becomes the working version. This reduces the file size (currently around 1.4 MB) by about 150 KB and the problem goes away for another three
weeks.
Certain aspects of my situation are unusual, and these may or may not be relevant to the problem:
At the end of each day I use (via a macro) the Review, Compare feature of Word to compare the document with the previous day’s version to allow me to reread any changes I made to it.
I use various other macros for intelligent page-turning, resizing windows, smart Find, etc.
I maintain the document as a DOC file (Word 97-2003 Compatibility Mode) because I need to share the document with an organization that requires this format.
The document flips back and forth a few times between being a one-column and two-column document.
The document has a table of contents on the last page.
The headings in the document have embedded section and subsection numbers.
The document has numerous embedded SEQ and cross-reference fields.
The document has embedded EMF pictures that were generated by a non-Microsoft application.
The long times to save the file and the temporary solution I’ve found to the problem suggest that some "junk" is accumulating “in” the last paragraph mark. This junk doesn't cause any operational errors, but it slows things down to the point where
the auto-save times out and I temporarily get the distracting "not responding" message. It would be nice if Word could automatically eliminate the junk in the last paragraph mark so that I wouldn’t have to do it manually.
Do you have any suggestions for how I might eliminate the problem?
I'd be pleased to send a copy of the slow-saving file to a Microsoft Word programmer for diagnosis of the problem.
I have up-to-date Windows 7 professional (64 bit) and Word 2010 14.0.6129.5000 (32 bit).
Thanks for your help,
Don Macnaughton

I am experiencing exactly the same save issue, although I cannot use the suggestion of copying to a new document as I have allot of references within the same document and I'm scared that I'll loose them (or mess them up).
It is nearly a year later, did you have any luck?
Francois,
I'm still experiencing the problem. However, I've now converted the document from a DOC to a DOCX, but that made no difference. So every 18 or so days I copy all of the document into a new document except for the last paragraph mark
and the problem goes away for another 18 or so days. For my document this solution is fully reliable although it's less convenient because it's a little complicated and I worry I may make a mistake or some text may be lost in the transition.
So I'm still looking for a solution to the problem. Is there anything unique about your document or your handling of the document that might be the cause of the problem? Are you using macros, Compare Versions, switching back and forth between
one and two columns, or anything else that is common to the features that I list in my first post in this thread?
You might want to try my copying solution as a test while keeping your original document as the official version that you continue to work with. You could then check the test document very carefully to see if my solution works with your
document. You might find that you can trust my solution (or you might not).
By the way, I make sure that the copy worked properly by doing a Compare Versions of the old and new documents. (Surprisingly, sometimes the compare finds very minor differences between the two documents, but usually not.)
If the problem really bothers you, you can hire Microsoft Support, although that will cost you some money. If you do that, please let us know the outcome.

It is asking me for a password when I want to update my ipad, it has never done this before. I thought it ment my Apple ID but it didn't work and my ipad is now disabled. What should I do ? Is there a way of getting my password sent to me ?

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

You iPod has been jail broken. Unfortunately you are on your own here. I can offer that you need to find out which method and software was used to JB.
Good luck...you're gonna need it....

revert back to Maverick that is what I had to finally do. This was the worst upgrade I have ever seen. Hopefully you have Time Machine backup and can revert back. It was pretty painless except for a few issues. I will wait until Apple gets their stuff together on this upgrade or may never will.

HT4060 My iPad wont charge when plugged into a computer, the battery isn't lasting long, and its getting hot when charging

My iPad wont charge when plugged into a computer, the battery isn't lasting long, and its getting hot when charging

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it

I've already right-clicked on the application, clicked "get info", and changed it so all people listed in the "Sharing & Permissions" section have the "read & write" privilage.
The error message is referring to your iTunes library, not your iTunes application.
You need to check and fix the permissions of the iTunes folder in your iTunes library. This is by default located in your "Music" folder.
Select the folder Music > iTunes in the Finder, right click on it or Ctrl Click and click "Get Info". At the bottom of the contextual window thatwill pop up, disclose the Sharing and Permissions brick, change your status from Read only to Read & Write. You may need to click the padlock icon to make changes.
