Virus Mac after upgrade - Fonts disappeared Devil in Dock

Hi guys
Dont know if any of you can help with this problem.
I was installing a upgrade to my operating system from the apple website. There appears to be a virus on my system.
There is a Devil in my dock, and all my fonts have disappeared. Dont know where to start with fixing this problem. Installed Virus software, but we cant even read the text in the program.
Please help
Thanks
Colin

Hi Colin! And Welcome To Discussions!
What upgrade were you installing?
Please explain a Devil in my dock.
What do you mean that your fonts have disappeared? Are they no longer in their folders, or are you not seeing any text?
What size is your Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
Have you run Repair Disk?
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert your Mac OS X CD-ROM disc or Restore DVD disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
8.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
9.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
10.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.
Good Luck!

I'm stucked on APPLE evolution bar when I restarted my Mac after upgrade to Yosemite. I Can't access on my computer.

I'm stucked on APPLE evolution bar when I restarted my Mac after upgrade to Yosemite. I Can't access on my computer.

Good Question.
I downloaded Yosemite a while ago, but didn¹t install it because it would
knock out several applications such as Solitaire till Dawn But finally
when some apps wouldn¹t work with my current version of Safari I thought I
would upgrade Safari but they wouldn¹t work with the OS I was using so
suddenly I had no Safari and was worse off than before. So I bit the bullet
and upgraded to Yosemite with the earlier version I already had. Not pleased
when iPhoto didn¹t work, and it also coincided with an national email outage
here in Australia by the major carrier so no email either.
Experience has taught me that it gets sorted out in the end but in the
meantime...
And the lesson is [

Delete the App Store app by dragging it and dropping it into the Trash. Then download and install the appropriate update combo for your version of OS X;
Install new MAS app -
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update combo

OS X Lion 10.7.5 update combo

After upgrading, font in google is FAT and UGLY

*blocked by the greatwall, google hongkong-ing
so after upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've tried to search around and learnt a new term called font conflict,
I'm not sure if it is a font conflict, however, I truly can't bear with seeing this ugly and fat font in google,
seems this font has shown itself everywhere when it's a default(?) font setting in Safari (same as in Chrome).
Please HELP!!!

Network can't see my Mac after upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.2

After upgrading to ML 10.8.2 (coming from Lion), the network (another mac and an iPad) can't see my Macbook-pro.
Using a network scanner (Fing on iPad), my Macbook is not there, and in the same way all the other services from Macbook-pro (such as Internet sharing, Filemaker sharing, ...) don't work.
My Macbook-pro is regularly connected to the right network and has a proper IP address (192.168.1.32 with 192.168.1.1 being the router, ...33 the other mac and so on). Also, my Macbook-pro perfectly reaches both other LAN devices and the internet.
I've tried disabling Firewall but nothing changed. I havn't got any antivirus nor security programs running.
Anyone experiencing the same issue?

Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. The purpose of this test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Wifi problem with Mac after upgrade to Mavericks

I just upgraded to Mavericks but something wrong with my wifi.
i can get internet through LAN link from Airport but not through wifi even i can receive an IP address
i tried connect to hotspot with my iphone5s and it works.
Other devices can use wifi just fine through Airport, just not my Mac using Mavericks
In conclusion,
Airport should be fine because my other devices works.
Mac wifi should be fine too because i can connect using hotspot.
so why it's not working when i connect Mac to Airport?

I was having problems connecting to Wifi with my Macbook Pro (!2010), after upgrading to Mavericks. I was on the phone repeateadly with AT&T because I have Uverse. Testing everything (channels, signal strength) and had techs come out to check the line, ports, switches, etc. When I hardwired the Mac into the Uverse router, it worked fine. This rulled out any problems with the line in.
I considered getting a repeater but then I read that repeaters are not really good and it is better to reconfigure a router to act as an access point on the network. Plunked down about $80 for a Belkin AC750 router at Best Buy. In the setup it has an option to set it up as an access point only. Clicked that, connected it to my Motorola NVG510 Uverse modem and then connected to the Belkin router from my Mac. Voila! It's been a solid 11+ Mbs ever since (my plan maxes at 12Mbs). Connection is still solid and life if good even though it ***** to plunk down another $80 for a second router. But it was worth it just to get rid of the headaches.
I think the wifi capabilities of the Motorola NVG510 modem are the cause of a lot of problems with AT&T Uverse issues, particularly for Mac owners. I think it was also causing my Airport Expresses to drop occasionally.... Few minutes of music then drop... music drop.... All gone now.
I don't know if you are on Uverse but if so, I highly recommend configuring a second router as an acces point (it can be any old router you still might have - the setup is just a bit trickier because you have to do it manually).
Good luck.

Why does the migration wizard run every time I start up my mac after upgrading to mavericks ?

After upgrading to Mavericks, I log in as normal but then a migration wizard starts up asking me where I want to import data from and create new accounts. Why and how do I stop it ?

It could be part of OS X's Resume feature. Any app that is open at shutdown will re-open on boot unless the tick in the following image is deselected when shutting down/restarting:
Also check that Migration Assistant isn't listed in System Preferences>Users & Groups>Login Items.

How can I get my back up on my mac after upgrading to Yosemite?

Hey everyone!
Before upgrading to Yosemite I made a Time Machine back up on a external hard disk.
After the upgrade to Yosemite was done I started with the setting-screen like anyone else would. When the Migration Assistant-screen came up I selected my external hard disk with my time-machine back up on it. Unfortunately Migration Assistant wasn't able to put the back up on the computer because apparently there was not enough space.
23gb to less or something. So I deselected a few maps in order to get under that amount and tried again. Nothing happened and the same message: not enough space.
So now I am stuck with a empty mac without any of my previous documents, music, etc.. What should I do? Should I fully format my mac?
FYI: my mac consists out of an 80 GB Solid State SATA Drive and a 128 GB Solid State SATA Drive.
The back-up my time machine made on my 1TB external hard disk is 131,5 GB big.
HELP ME PLEASE! WHAT TO DO!

How to reconnect to .Mac after upgrading to Leopard?

I upgraded my iMac (20". mid-2007) to Leopard last night. Since then, I cannot connect to .Mac via the System Preferences. I CAN connect via the web, but I need to connect via System Preferences in order to synchronize my calendars correctly.
Have tried resetting the .Mac password several times. Have tried entering both my login name only and [email protected]
Error is: Unknown validation error - Your .Mac member name or password may be invalid. Please enter a different name or password.
There was a previous thread on this, which said "answered", but it really was not answered. Help!

Iphone videos will no longer play on mac after upgrade

Hi, I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and since doing so, all the video's that I took with my iphone and moved to my mac (everything that was on my mac already prior to the upgrade), no longer work. I basically lost all videos of the first 6 months of my daughters life following the upgrade and I would like to know how I can get the videos' to work again or if this is lost for good?

Hi, Slumdog13.
Where did these videos come from? Did you download them directly from Nokia Suite or did you sync your mobile device and got these videos from there?
What is the format of the old videos that you are trying to play? Have you also tried to sync/transfer new videos and then play them? If yes, have you encountered the same error message?
Have you also tried transferring these videos from the Nokia Suite to your Desktop and check if you'll be able to play them?
You can also try to update the Nokia Suite to the latest version "Nokia Suite 3.8" or uninstall and then re-install it. Just visit the link provided below:

Missing iCal calendars on my Mac after upgrade to iCloud

I realise this is probably a very simple problem to those of you with a greater understanding of syncing and iCloud than I have.
I switched from MobileMe toiCloud last night. Everything seems to be working, except that all the iCal entries on my iMac have disappeared, although they appear perfectly on iCloud and on the family iPhones.
How can I get them back on the iMac, too?

And with impeccable timing, I've worked it out for myself just minutes after posting the request for help. So much for patience.
In case anyone else is having the problem, it involves starting up iCal, going to Preferences ... Accounts ... selecting iCloud in the drop-down menu that appears, and then entering your iCloud account name and password.
Simple.

Flash Builder 4.7 mac , after upgrade to adobe air 13/14 wont create new projects

im running flash builder 4.7 on mac, and recently upgrade to a newer air, this was sad in itself as flash builder dosnt have a mechanism for doing this you have to paste files all manually all over the place.
Im now running into an issue where I cannot even create projects.
Has anyone had this issue? does anyone know how to solve?
Thanks

Called support had the pleasure of a really long wait time.
first level tech support stated this was a "known issue", got transferred to another sr technician who was going to fix this, didn't have a clue about the previous conversation and the call dropped. I don't have the patients to wait on hold nearly an hr again.
Adobe, if this is a known issue please post a sticky somewhere or assign someone to reply to the community posts.
If anyone else has the answer to this, that would be much appreciated, Im kind of loathing flash builder at the moment and resenting the fact i can't run flash develop natively on mac.

Firefox will not load up on my mac after upgrading to 3.6.8

I click the firefox icon in the mac system tray, it bounces for a few seconds, but the software does not load.

Finally after trying to uninstall/reinstall (no luck!)
I'm on Windows 7 64 bit. iTunes 10.7 And I have a solution:
If found a thread about IPv6.
I followed the same directions on Windows 7 64 bit and it worked.
Disable IPv6 on _all_ of your IP ethernet adapters.
That includes Virtual Machines (VMWare... yes those too), including IPv6 for wireless.
Close iTunes. Start iTunes. Works. Airplay Icon is back.
It looks like All of the AirPlay devices may have to be re-setup. At the very least rebooted.
I found that I had to clompletely erase my DHCP addresses from my (non Apple) router.. and that fixed it. Finally.
Even though this is for the Mac... I believe they are onto something. Original thread link:
