Update to FF v7.01 doesn't install properly on one of my normal accounts but works properly on all other user accounts.

Hi folks at FireFox perhaps you know something about this problem:
When I go on 'Help > About Firefox' I get a window which shows: "FireFox 7.01", and now the weird message, a button with "Apply Update" shows. When I click on this button FireFox shuts down and seems to reinstall itself but when I go back on 'Help > About Firefox' it shows the same window with 'Apply Update'. I did all the obvious procedures you mentioned on your help/ support lists but it doesn't change.
It also important that on this normal user account I had always this weird behavior when I tried to update my FireFox browser, so this problem is not specific to version 7.01, I had it before too.
I wished you would have an easy solution for this problem.
Thanks,
AB.

If files already have been downloaded then remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You can also delete active-update.xml and possibly updates.xml (stores the update history).

Problem updating iTunes to 8.2 under all OS user accounts

I'm posting this for my brother.
Background: He has an iMac setup with multiple user accounts similar to how I have mine: Administrator, Parents and a separate account for each child. He recently updated iTunes to version 8.2 while logged into his (Parent) account using Admin privileges. I perform my app/OS updates this way as well and any app update is reflected in the respective app under each account. They share a common iTunes Music Store account but keep separate libraries and music folders.
Problem: After his son updated his iPod touch to 3.0, iTunes blocked the first sync indicating he needed to update iTunes to the latest version. When he checked to see what version his iTunes was under his account, it showed version 8.0. He performed a software update, iTunes 8.2 showed up so he downloaded it and, after admin credentials were entered, he installed the update. No luck. Still 8.0. He did that a couple times with no success. Since then, I've had him restart, trash pref files, and download the full update from the Apple website but nothing has worked. His iTunes still shows as version 8.0 even though all other user accounts on their iMac shows version 8.2 and he can't sync his iPod.
I don't believe OS X installs multiple instances of an app for user account purposes so I'm truly baffled by this. Should I uninstall iTunes in his user account? Under the Parent account? Which account "owns" the iTunes app? Is there some other way to get it to update?
I've searched the forums and Googled the issue and I can't find a similar issue anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

We did that as well. They can only find one version of iTunes in the Applications Folder. "Get Info" on the main account shows version 8.2 yet a "Get Info" on the kids account shows version 8.0. Performing an upgrade check from within the kids accounts finds the 8.2 updater and after running it, it indicates that the upgrade was successful. Once the upgrade is applied, the version still remains at 8.0.
Has no one else encountered this? I'm afraid to uninstall iTunes in the kids accounts because I don't know what it will do to the main iTunes.

Security update 2015-004 1.0 doesn't install

Hello, I'm running Mavericks on an iMac and my issue at the moment is that the security update 2015-004 1.0 doesn't install.
My app store says I have 1 update to install but if you click on update for security update 2015-004 1.0 it tells you to restart the computer. I do that but it doesn't install the update.
Caught in an endless loop over this update.
Any thoughts, feelings or expressions greatly appreciated.

Sure you have the right version? This is the one for Mavericks: Security Update 2015-002 for OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

I m trying to send a email and sms alert using php and it works fine on all systems except on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india. plz help

I m trying to send a email and sms alert to people and it works fine on all systems expect on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india.
the code i m using is right below,plz have a look and not into the problem as problem is a bit strange.
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
 $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
 $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";
 $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\n";
 $headers .= "Importance: High\n";
 // Additional headers
 $headers .= 'From: Rakesh <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
 foreach($disemail as $email)
 $to = $email;
 $subject = $succMessage['email_subject'];
 $message = $smsText;
 mail($to,'=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode($subject).'?=',$message,$header);
 if (stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE') !== FALSE) {
 $smsText = utf8_encode($smsText);

i have tried this new charset combination specifically for iphone and i m waiting for response from sweden alliance.....i hope this works fine as iso works great for 8-bit characters.
would like to have your thoughts though.
$headers .= "Content-Type:text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable";

- i updated my iphone 4 software on my other itunes library that is on my other user account on my laptop. my ringtones are not on my phone now but i see them in my library, but my phone is not synced to that library. how can i get my ringtones back ?

- i updated my iphone 4 software on my other itunes library that is on my other user account on my laptop. my ringtones are not on my phone now but i see them in my library, but my phone is not synced to that library. how can i get my ringtones back without having to sync my phone to the library where my ringtones are and possibly lose everything on my phone ?

From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
Take the following steps:
1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
Hope this helps!

I had photoshop elements 8 installed on my previous computer and it did not work properly when it came to sizing photos for a website I was adding to. I now have a new computer which runs windows 7. Is it worth installing it again on my new computer?

I had photoshop elements 8 installed on my previous computer and it did not work properly when it came to sizing photos for a website I was adding to. I now have a new computer which runs windows 7. Is it worth installing photoshop elements 8 again on my new computer or will it be a waste of time?

I have PSEv.8 on my computer running WINDOWS 7. It works perfectly..
Perhaps you need help with saving files for web use.. Will be pleased to assist you when you get everything set up.

Javascript doesn't work on safari desktop but works properly on Safari ipad. I already cleaned a cache without success

javascript doesn't work on safari desktop but works properly on Safari ipad. I already cleaned a cache without success. IE, FF and Opera are working well

Try this - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Creative Cloud Desktop App Update 1.7.0.413 doesn't install, error code 89

I am running CS6 on Windows 7 x64. The Creative Cloud updater is insisting that I run it's update to version 1.7.0.413, but it fails each time. I had a look at the file ...Temp\AdobeDownload\LBS.log, and found the message "ACC installation failed with status: 89" (full section of the log is below). I also had a look at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC but did not see anything there. The updater gives me only the two choices "Install Now" or "Quit", so I am dead in the water.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Bruce

Hi There Linc Davis,
Wow, you are the best.
Yip this is what the website looks like. Great job Linc Davis.
Not surprised that the "Shop" tab is missing. Darn.
Well can you try to access it's "sister" website: astralmusic.com and astralmusicshop.com?
Since you are awesome with the "Flash" can you investigate if this website has a issue withis this "Flash" too?
Please Linc Davis

After installing Lion, Time Capsule backed-up my mac, but unfortunately it deleted all my old beck up!! I think it's terrible, what was the point than to have time capsule??now I lost all my back up with no warning....

Be crafull with updating to Lion.
I lost all my backup and my mac got realy slow...
Any suggestion if it is possible after all to recover my old back up from the time capsule? I guess it lost though.

Mount and open the internal disk of the Time Capsule. How many "sparsebundle" files do you see? If you only have one Mac using Time Machine but you see two such files, then one of them has your old data. In this case you may have missed a chance to continue using the old Time Machine file.

TS2529 just updated my iphone 4; now I cannot sync with my music on my mac nor download music from itunes. all other items: photos, calendar, email syncs; not music. how do i get music on my iPhone?

I just updated my iPhone 4. I now cannot synch with music on my iMac nor can I download from iTunes. All other syncing activity works: calendars, email, ibooks and contacts are all automatically updated across all devices. Not music.
How do I get music to download and sync?

Plug your phone into itunes.
Click the iphone there, and go to the music tab.
Is the Sync Music tab checked off? And is the entire music library selected?

I'm trying to install CS6 to one particular drive (f drive) but it partially installs to the c and f drive. What am I doing wrong?

Why does the software partially install to both the c and f drive even though I specifically set the installation to the f drive?

You cannot get around some of it being installed on the C drive. It is required to do so.
