Posting TO the forum via an email interface - probably OK, though even that leaves me with a vague uneasy feelilng. Allowing reply FROM the forum TO someone's email .. absolutely poison. In addition to opening a market for brain dumps, there are far too many on the forum that expect the 'gurus' to be at their personal beck and call. You see it in a lot of forums, not just here on OTN. My personal attitude is 'read the forum, write the forum'.

NEWBIE NEEDS HELP - NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE PLACE FOR THIS BUT

Does anyone know where I can get an application that creates downloadable files like zip files - preferably that can be used for Mac or PC? I know WinZip or something does it but is there one for Mac?
Contact me at [email protected] if you can help. Thanks

Here is a link that will take you to Allume Systems. Check out "Stuffit Deluxe", a highly flexible application that will let you compress and expand many formats for both Mac and PC platforms.
One note of caution: I and others have had problems with using the "background" apps that come with the package. Both compressing and expanding have always been flawless for me. I consider Stuffit a must have on my machines and have had had it since the late 1980's.

Hope this helps.

Can 11.0 search for composers and comments like the prior version?

when I type a composer's name in the library, I don't get an option for finding all the composers songs in my library, like I used to. I also can't figure out how to search the comments field.

Go to View > View Options, and check the boxes for Composer and Comments.
This will add those two columns to the view. If they are in the view, they will be included in Search.

I have an IMAC and purchased OS X Lion to upgrade from the APP store, and launched the software for downloading, and I have been waiting on this for an hour, and it still says it's downloading? What do I do next?

I have an IMAC and purchased OS X Lion to upgrade from the APP store, and launched the software for downloading, and I have been waiting on this for an hour, and it still says it's downloading? What do I do next?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The OS X Lion installer takes more than 4 GB of space, so it is normal for most Internet connections to take the download more than an hour.
If you want to see the download progress, open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases.
Before upgrading, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

I've recently installed IOS 7.0.3. on my Ipad4. With the latest automatic upgrade of First Class yesterday the textfields for loggning in disappears upworth. How can I correct this.

HALF-SOLUTION!!!! (Restoring only, basically.)
Restore the phone via iCloud.com
1. Go to iCloud.com , and log in.
2. If you want a back up, make sure you back it up to itunes now!
3. Now back to iCloud.com - select the device you want. Press "Erase iPhone" (or iPad, iPod whatever).
You will go through a few steps. Skip the phone number and leave a message, as it isn't lost. Your phone will be restored. No need for plugging in!
4. IMPORTANT: Just set it up as usual. Language, country blah. But then you'll get to a step where it says something like "This iPhone was erased with iCloud. Log in with the Apple ID you used to erase it". In this case, my Dad's. So please do that. Later on, the phone will ask for an Apple ID to be used for the phone. I put my own one as I didn't want my dads!!!! Lol....
5. Plug into iTunes and back-up.
As for updating, I'm still on 7.0.2,,, it ain't working on my phone or itunes!! :(

I have PS 4,5,and 6 installed on my Macbook Pro as well as Lightroom 4 and 5. Can I remove PS 4 and 5 and LR 4? PS 4 is the total install and PS 5 and 6 are upgrades. LR 4 is the full package with LR an upgrade.

I need space!

First let me disabuse of a misconception: All Adobe upgrades are FULL installers. Whether you buy them as upgrades or new versions does not make an iota of difference. The upgrade installers do not need to find a prior version installed, they just prompt you for the old serial number as well as the old one, and they do not rely on the old version in the least.
Second, the time to uninstall an older version is BEFORE upgrading to a newer one. Otherwise, the uninstaller from the older versions will mess up with your new install. There are a gazillion files that are named the same and in the same locations as the new one.
Your best bet now is to uninstall ALL the Photoshop versions you have installed, including the newest one, one by one, then run the Adobe CS Cleaner Tool, then run Repair Permissions from Apple's Desk Utility, and finally re-install the latest version.
The other alternative, if your boot HD is large enough (very doubtful in case of a laptop like a Mac Book), is to leave all versions on it.
Your choice.

You can get the latest jQuery Mobile Themes directly from jQuery Mobile's web site.

I can not burn a cd in itunes. It tells me the drivers for importing and burning cd and dvds are missing. It tells me to reinstall itunes. I have done this several times and it does not help.

I can not burn a cd in itnes. When I open itunes it tells me the dirvers for importing and burning cds & dvds are missing. It tells me to reinstall itunes. I have done this and it does not help. How can I solve this problem?

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)
iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes

The keyboard shortcuts on the pull down menus are grayed out. So I cant use my keyboard to (for instance) open up a new tab. This is the case for all keyboard s

The keyboard shortcuts on the pull down menus are grayed out. So I cant use my keyboard to (for instance) open up a new tab. This is the case for all keyboard s

Mine appear in gray, too; I think that's just the style.
Does this problem occur on all pages? (If it only appears on YouTube or other pages with Flash players, it may be related to keystrokes being captured by the plugin.)
A standard diagnostic for possible interference by add-ons is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
If your keyboard shortcuts work correctly, this points to one of your add-ons or custom settings as the problem.
Any change?

I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan

Hi Everybody,
I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan. How do I uninstall the Epson software and start all over again?

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee

This is the fix for "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close .

I recently purchased a new laptop and tried to get my library transferred. iTunes wouldn’t open; QuickTime wouldn’t open. I was near a heart attack. I tried the fixes listed in the forum, but they didn’t work. Then I discovered:
The fix needs to be done in a proper order!
a. Delete iTunes and QuickTime from Add/Remove programs
b. Go to C > Program files an delete the folders for iTunes and QuickTime. If QT will not allow you to delete the program because it’s “in use”, then go to Start > Run > configsys > Startup and deselect “qttask”. You will have to reboot and get past the selective start up/diagnostic screen. Then go back to C > Program files and you will now be able to delete the QuickTime folder.
c. For good order’s sake, delete any desktop shortcuts and empty your Recycle Bin.
d. Reboot
e. Download the STAND ALONE version of QuickTime: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
f. Install the stand alone version; reboot. At this time, when the diagnostic window comes up, you can reselect “qttask”
g. Download the QuickTime 7 with iTunes 6: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
h. Install the iTunes program. The stand alone will take precedence over the imbedded version of QuickTime.
i. Reboot
When your system has completed the reboot, you should be able to double-click the newly installed desktop shortcut; give it a few minutes and it should open. Mine did – and I tried everything else. If this does NOT work, then there is a conflict with something else in your system and you will have to go through the configsys elimination process, which is a whole lot more work.
Best of luck!

Generate another of those error messages and click the "Click here" link in the error message box. What modname and modver are showing for the error? (Precise spelling please.)
If the error is a BEX and thus doesn't show an modname or modver, let us know what P1 through P9 items are showing for you instead.

Acrobat 11 there was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be repaired

we are receiving an error when opening certain pdfs saying "there was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be repaired"
i've tried a few things to fix this issue with no luck
tried on a brand new windows 7 install without any added software like anti-virus software, etc
tried on my home pc (I forwarded the document from my work pc to my home pc and still receiving the same error)
don't think it's anything related to the computers, thinking it's more an issue with the pdf. i've tried the basics like deleting temp files from IE, going to %temp% and deleting that out, doing an acrobat repair, trying in reader instead of acrobat, updating users from acrobat 10 to 11, and still receiving the same issue. the odd thing is, some people can open this document and some receive the error. the other thing is i've tried alternative pdf programs with no avail, same errors from those as well
i work on the helpdesk with one other person for the company and not sure what else we can try
don't think this is a pc issue - tried on pcs in the company, home pcs, personal pcs and all get this error
got to be an issue with either the pdf, or the way its being sent
i did reach out to OUR e-mail team here (lotus notes admin) and they've ruled out anything as far as an encryption causing the conflict may go, so notes isn't the issue either
would it be possible it's on the persons end that's sending the file?

Unfortunately, CR 10.5 is not supported on WIN 2012 Server. See this wiki for more details. In order to work in a supported environment you will have to upgrade to CR 2008 Service pack 7, or SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (2010 / 2012 / 2013).

How to reset your Apple ID security questions
Go to appleid.apple.com and click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email.
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side. Then underneath the security questions click on the link that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or there is no rescue email link available, then you will need assistance from Apple Account Security. Follow this procedure:
click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to getsupport.apple.com. If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services'.
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open. Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.
