Upgraded to 10.5 and FCP thinks that its running on a different computer

I've had FCP for about 5 years now, no problems. I recently upgraded to OS10.5 FCP worked fine until I tried to go to compressor and compressor would not work (different forum, I know) anyway I got compressor working again by re-installing just compressor. Now FCP won't open b/c it thinks that there is anouther application with identical serial #'s already running on my network. I have 1 other Mac and its running Final cut express. Even with the other mac off it still gives me the message. Please help.

You might consider removing all FCP(S) components and do a fresh install of the application. Have your serial numbers ready and I hope you are not in the middle of a project.

I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and have found that some of my software no longer works, notably Image Browser and also the Epson Scanner Perfection 3490 software. Is there a 'patch' or way to allow me to use these programmes especially the scanner.

Apple discontinued support for PowerPC apps with Lion, I think, so you're out of luck there. No patch coming, unfortunately. Best to upgrade whatever old applications you have or, since it seems like you're using some relatively old software, scout around for replacements that give you the functionality you need.
Go to Apple menu > System Preferences > Print & Scan and select your scanner from the list--if it's not there you'll need to add it (start with the little plus icon). Once you have it in the list you can click on the Open Scanner button and a pretty barebones scanner driver will load for you. But Image Capture (as mentioned previously), found in your Applications folder, will probably do the job as adequately, or better, than your old scanner software.

I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?

If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

I just upgraded to iOS 7 and I realized that the "Completed" tasks folder in the "Reminders" application was erased. I had important information there. How can I recover my completed tasks and the dates the tasks were completed?.

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgradeto iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1

What do I do if my IPad wont turn on completely and what I mean by that I see the Apple logo and I think that it is turning on and then after a while i see the loading symbol which means that it isn't frozen and then all of a sudden it shows the apple log

What do I do if my IPad wont turn on completely and what I mean by that I see the Apple logo and I think that it is turning on and then
after a while i see the loading symbol which means that it isn't frozen and then all of a sudden it shows the apple logo once more and it repeats the above

Try this first.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that doesn't work, try restoring the iOS software.

It's not your wording that's at issue. It's the incorrect information you provided. Go back and read my reply.
I'm sorry but I can't help your mis-wording. I can only make sense from what you have written. Your location is the UK so I must assume English is your first language without other information to go by.
If you wrote the same thing a hundred times in one day, then you'd use copy and paste, too. So don't insult those of us who do.

My Computer Thinks That I'm In A Different Country

Hi All.
For some reason, my computer thinks that I'm in a different country.
It thinks that I am in South Korea, which is where the computer has mainly been used, although I am currently in Norway, where the computer first was used.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thank You.

Hi JoaNor, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Not exactly clear what you mean, but check these three places...
System Preferemces>Date & Time>Time Zone.
System Preferemces>International> all tabs.
And if there's a little flag up at top of the menubar, click on that.

Hi. Im currently living in New Zealand. Just bought an iphone 5s yesterday from a shop called Parallel Brand Imports in Auckland. When i came home i called apple to check whether my phone is locked or not and they said that its locked to US Verizon even t

When i came home i called apple to check whether my phone is locked or not and they said that its locked to US Verizon even though when i checked on iphoneimei it said sim status unknown. I put my 2degrees (NZ carrier) in today and it worked fine. I got into the settings and turned off the automatically part of carrier and there were 3 options for me to choose 2degrees vodafone and telecom. Because of that, im quite confused abt whether my phone is locked or not since im from vietnam so i want to know if i can use vietnamese sim card when i go home. Thanks for your help@verizon

Hi tranvietanh - I appreciate you contacting us all the way from New Zealand! I can confirm that the iPhone 5s and all of our other 4G LTE device are not SIM locked. As the carrier in New Zealand may not support the exact same frequencies and cellular bands that we use on our network, we are unable to support the device if using a 3rd party SIM.
Thank you,

My 5th gen. ipod died and they replaced it with a new one, but I'm having problems getting the music. An error message says that its not authorized on this computer. The ipod is synced but it wont let me add what music I want.

My 5th gen ipod died and apple replaced it with a new one. I synced it up to the itunes that I already have on my computer but an error message keeps coming up telling me that its not authorized on this computer. What do I do?

I have a work Mac, an air book, a home Mac; husband has desktop and laptop. That makes 5. My work computer was replaced and I do not know what the company did with it. I am not allowed to deauthorize all. Any way around the year limit?

I have a work Mac, an air book, a home Mac; husband has desktop and laptop. That makes 5. My work computer was replaced and I do not know what the company did with it. I am not allowed to deauthorize all because I did this within the last year when I got my new airbook. Any way around the year limit? I don't know if I can find my old computer and I don't want to wait months to be able to play my ituens purchases on my new work computer.

If oyu already used up your "deauthorize all" option, you need to contact support so they can make an excemption:

My iphone 3gS camera has a dark shadow looking dot on it. I lloked it up and i think maybe its a pixel problem. What can apple do to fix it?

My iphone 3GS camera has a dark shadow looking dot on it. I lloked it up and i think maybe its a pixel problem. What can apple do to fix it?

Hmm, then it could be something somehow with the actual camera sensor behind the lens or maybe software issue. But i'd recommend ringing Apples support line and seeing if they can fix it, if it's still in warrantly they should do it free of charge.

We bought a time capsule then the wifi has a problem since it does not identify the existing wireless network and it says that its need to have an update firmware. The existing firmware is 7.3.1, does it have an newest update firmware existing now?

We bought a time capsule, 1TB, then the wifi has a problem since it does not identify the existing wireless network and it says that its need to have an update firmware. The existing firmware is 7.3.1, does it have an newest update firmware existing now? Does APPLE do not provide latest firmware for this item?

How old is that Time Capsule? The fact that it still have firmware 7.3.1 suggests that it's not the latest model. The latest firmware available for my two-year-old model is version 7.5.2. Apple does provide firmware updates. You just have to let the Time Capsule download and install them. Use AirPort Utility to do that.
Regarding your Wi-Fi problem, please explain what you mean by "it does not identify the existing wireless network".
