UPGRADE to OS x 10.6 STOP !!! READ !!! THINK !!! DO YOU HAVE THE TIME??
1.) Paralles complained during install and does not work.
2.) Permissions scrambled. Unable to access files or save on a LOT of programs!
3.) Apple Aperture 1.5.6 does not work. Now what to do? More money? Upgrade to Photoshop?
Message > You can't use this version of the application Aperture with this version of Mac OS X
4.) Internet access wants to reset keychain ofter startup.
5.) Open office 3.1 does not function. Reinstalled and still does not function!
I miss the extremely stable and very easy to use OS X, the reason I have invested in to APPLE desktop and laptops. How do I go back to OS X 10.5??????? How do I get a refund?
1. Talk to Parallels. What version? You need 4.0+ for Snow Leopard.
2. If you have problems saving files within your home directory, this is something you changed. The OS install does not touch (or have any idea about) permissions in your home folder. Repair permissions will not help here. Also, if you are seeing SUID warnings in repairing permissions, that's not related, it's a non issue.
3. Yes, Aperture 1.5.6 came out 2 years ago. Aperture 2 has been out for 18 months. You need to upgrade to run with Snow Leopard. Why upgrade your OS so quickly and never upgrade your photo application? It's $100 to upgrade.
4. Haven't seen that, but have you tried repairing keychains from within Keychain Access?
5. Does OO 3.1 support 10.6? Check with them, as this isn't a Snow Leopard issue.

My computer is infected with Adware. I deleted Adobe Reader thinking it might have the adware in it. Since the problem started the same day as Adobe Reader was installed. Reader wasn't the problem. So how do I get Reader reinstalled?
And if anyone knows how to delete WebProtect ads, please let me know. It's actually getting worse.
FrostedinSilverHi frostedinsilver,
I'm sorry to hear that. What a hassle.
You can download Reader from www.adobe.com/products/reader.html.

Read this if you have the Looping Audio issue...
I was having this problem and it was driving me nuts. It would do it randomly everytime I used iTunes. I searched around the web but could not find anything related to this issue except for these forums.
What fixed it for me -
Go into your Sound preferences and look at the Output tab. Is the balance centered? Mine wasn't. It was moved a few notches to the left. This problem has been occuring for quite awhile where the balance will move by itself! I moved it to the center and have NOT had a single problem with the looping audio anymore.
Try it! Let me know if it works! =)I had same problem not with XP but with Windows 7 beta. I posted online and a lot of people said Realtek this and Realtek that, it didn't work for me. I finally tried installing Bootcamp 2.1 and voila it worked. While it was installing drivers, I noticed bootcamp saying "Removing Realtek audio ... " then "Installing SigmaTel audio ... " few seconds later i started hearing all the bells and whistles of Windows 7. Woohoo!
I guess Realtek works for some people with various configurations but for me it was Siggy. -
My Time Capsule has been backing up without any problems and all of a sudden it stops reading on my computer. The external hard drive beeps three times and the motter wont run within. The light that usually blinks while in use is no longer blinking and is on constant. What happened?

Sorry we are unclear as to the external hard drive and its connection to the TC..
For instance the light that blinks.. is that the TC or external hard disk or what.
Did you try just rebooting / restart the whole network in correct order.. modem.. router / TC.. external drive.. clients with 2min gap between each.
Are you actually running Snow Leopard as the profile states?
How old is the TC? -
How can I upgrade my itunes to 11 version? It shows the legend "you have the latest version"
Hi,
I need urgent help!!
I recently upgraded my iphone 4, it works perfectly, everything all right with it, but... Next time I wanted to sync the iphone with itunes I couldn´t!!!
On the screen it shows a message saying that "my iphone cannot be read on this itunes because is not the actual version" and that I needed to upgrade it to the latest version, so I went to search for an update on the itunes menu and the message was "there are not new versions, you have the latest" but is not true!!!
So, I went to the itunes webpage to download the 11.1 version and once it was finished I tried to install it, but it happened nothing!
I am desperate and don´t know what to do, I don´t want to loose all I have there!!!
I would be so grateful if you could help me solving this problem!!
Thank you!
YazzIf you're using 10.5.8, YOU HAVE the latest (iTunes 10) that will run on your OS.
If your mac is Intel, you can upgrade to 10.6 through Apple for $19.99, then run the 10.6.8 combo update and you'll be able to run iTunes 11.1.2 or 11.1.3 -
Upgrading to V4 has lost all of my Bookmarks, I still have the restore files in my profile data but they will not load, I have tried importing the html backup file too but it didn't work either. How can I get them back?
Ok this is bizzare!
Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :( -

I need to upgrade to mac os snow leopard from 10.5.8, and have the lion OS usb. I can't upgrade to snow leopard as my father doesn't remember the admin password. If anyone can help it would be appreciated
Restart with the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD in the drive or with the Lion USB drive connected, hold down the Option key just after the restart, tab to the installation disk, and press Enter. If the computer has a firmware password set, it needs to be provided for this to work.

Do you have the old for new service? Can I upgrade my iPhone 5s to the new iPhone 6 and how much does it cost?
Actually, in the US at least the website states
You can recycle your iPhone at the Apple Retail Store and get immediate credit for its value toward the purchase of a new one.**

Dear Sir/Madam
I want to tell you that I am very disappointed because I just read that in photo stream my photos are stored only for (30) thirty days.I didn't know that and I didn't have the time to save them on a device.
I was robbed of mobile before (3) three days and I lost 2.000 photos!
Is there any possibility to retrieve them?
If it was possible that would be great as I would save them immediately to my computer instead of losing them again.
Thank you for understanding
Kind Regards

Hi lawalton,
Please tell me a bit more--what happens when you try to open your files in Reader? Are you getting an error message? Do they open, but don't display correctly?
I look forward to hearing back from you so we can get this mystery sorted out.

HP pavilion dv6 touchpad stopped working (read this if you have dropped your computer)!
Hello, this is not a question it is advice for people having touchpad issues with their dv6 (I've noticed a quite a few posts). My touchpad suddenly completely stopped working one day (didn't respond to anything that I did).
Most of the forums I've been to (actually, all of them... and they were many) ask you to try reinstalling the driver. However, if you did not recently uprage your OS or make any such major changes this is not likely to be the issue.
Try going to device manager. If your touchpad is not showing up under the mouse and pointer devices section (it should say Synaptics something or other) then it means that either something is broken OR your touchpad came unseeded.
For me, it was the second option (I drop my laptop... occasionally). The cable for the touchpad is held in place by a little plastic lever-like clamp. It can easily become loose, so try this out before taking your computer into a repair shop (and loosing it for weeks, not to mention the price if you're not under warranty!)
Three easy steps:
1) take the removable bottom cover off (that little plastic bit in the center where your hard drive is). For my model (6145dx), it just snaps off (with a flathead screw driver or other tool for leverage). You might have to unsrew a few things, but it should be easy.
2) Take out the hard drive (held in place by 4 screws in most cases). You do not need to disconnect the cables leading to the hard drive! Just pull it out and lay it off to the side.
3) Toward the very front of your computer (right under where your hard drive was, and where the touchpad is on the top cover) you will see the ribbon cables coming from your keyboard, touchpad, etc. Give them a little wiggle (just pull the plastic tabs that stick up. If one of them moves, then you need to re-clamp it! Push the cable all the way in and push down the lever.
Super easy! Should solve all your problems!So my touchpad wasn't working and I have an HP dv6-6135dx. It started being messed up shortly after I took my PC apart to upgrade the screen. Sometimes it worked perfectly, sometimes it was completely unresponsive, sometimes the ring around the touchpad was lit, other times it wasn't etc.... It got worse and worse to the point where the touch pad almost never worked.
I followed this guide, and it didn't fix the problem; however, this got me thinking, and I pulled the keyboard out and reseated the touchpad cable where it connects right under there. BAM works perfectly. THANK YOU so much for this post, for some reason I didn't think to reseat the cable... I must have not plugged it back in completely when I took my laptop apart.

CMSS can cause for weird results. Please read this if you have surround issues
I'm a musician who frequently uses the Audio creation mode because this is the environment most optimal for creating music. For some time now, I've facing a certain problem where today, I finally found the solution about.
my problem
The problem I was having, is that some applications (they're optimised for stereo) played sound on my center speaker differently than those who use the windows 7 drivers. What happened in a nutshell, is that when I play sound in flash, the center speaker volume is about 3 times as loud as all the other speakers. Although this gives a nice and clear sound for presentations, this can be a pain when you want to listen to music.
my setup
For me, this is a bit awkward, because I have a big room where my speakers are positioned for my TV. My computer is next to my tv, but my center speaker is not in front of my pc monitor, but rather in front of my tv. Due to this, the right ear gets way more sound than my left one. Strangely enough, it weren't all the applications that had trouble with this. My music player plays everything equally throughout my speakers.
the mixer
The creative mixer (startup console) has several ways of tweaking this. Like assigning what channels to play if sound gets played through L/R, and their individual volume bars. You can guess it maybe. Changing these settings affected both applications differently. I could use the sliders to fix one, and then mess up the other. So when I went through all my settings I couldn't find what causes this.
CMSS is the fault here
I went reading this forum, and came to this post: http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/How-to-enable-sound-for-my-center-rear-and-side-speakers-using/td-p/52 What gives, this option is not available when you are in Audiocreation mode. So it shouldn't affect my sound right? WRONG!
the problem
Even though you can't tweak the settings during audio creation mode, the settings are still in affect. So you have to switch to entertainment mode to access the CMSS-3D. I went there, and I had stereo enhancing surround enabled. When I changed that, it solved my problem. Since during audio creation, I mainly use stereo applications, I do not need surround enhancement.
my setup now
I turned it off, and as suspected, windows only parses sound to the left and right, not the other channels, even in audio creation mode. In the mixer, I have enabled output to all 7 channels I have for L/R output, and now the sound gets balanced to all my speakers. True, I get stereo sound over all the speakers, but when I want to use surround, I switch to the entertainment mode anyway.
Could a mod sticky this? I think its worth to have this stickied.So my touchpad wasn't working and I have an HP dv6-6135dx. It started being messed up shortly after I took my PC apart to upgrade the screen. Sometimes it worked perfectly, sometimes it was completely unresponsive, sometimes the ring around the touchpad was lit, other times it wasn't etc....
