What do I do if my iPad is requesting me to download adobes newest version of macromedia flash player.

Is there an app that Apple provides since they have blocked access to download adobe flash player for my IPad 2?

There is no flash player for the iPad as Apple don't want it (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/) and Adobe have never been able to make it and they've given up trying.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

What happened to the icon "Stop loading this page", when I downloaded the newest version of Foxfire?

In the previous edition of Foxfire, an arrow pointing clockwise was located near the 'back' - 'forward' button. This Stop Loading Page icon has disappeared. I liked that feature--it was helpful. How can I retrieve this feature?
It's late. I'll check my email for the answer tomorrow (5-31-11).
Thank you.

You either have to buy iPhoto again, or sign in with your old Apple ID.

Macromedia Flash Player, what am I doing wrong?

I'm a simp and I'm stumped! I used to be able to watch videos on youtube but now when I go there I get the message: "Hello, you either have Javascript turned off or an old version of Macromedia Flash Player". I have no idea (and I've been looking) how to get info on turning on Javascript and when I go to the link and try to download a newer version of Flash Player it goes to a page saying: "Not found - The requested URL/flashplayer etc., was not found on this server". What did I do to screw things up? What am I doing wrong? What can I do to fix this so I can watch videos again?

Hi, Jupie -
Re Sherlock, it sounds like you may be activating a network search instead of searching on your hard drive.
Check which of the icons in the upper section of Sherlock's window is highlighted - has a greenish border added to it. If your search is to be of the local volume(s) (drives), be sure the icon that looks like an external hard drive case is the one highlighted. If the one that looks like a globe is highlighted, Sherlock will attempt a network search.
Re increasing the memory allocation for a program - it really isn't difficult, nor should it be risky in any way. Here's how to do it -
First, quit the program if it's running.
Then click once on the icon of the program itself, not on an alias to it. If you customarily use an alias to activate the program, a quick way to het to the original is to click once on the alias, then press Command-R (Show Original from the File menu). This will open the folder containing the original, no matter how deeply it is buried, and highlight the original. Then all you need do is press Command-I (Get Info from the File menu).
Select Get Info from the File menu (if you've not already done that), and then select Memory from the pulldown menu in the Get Info window.
In the new pane, at the bottom, are three boxes with numbers in them - the one you want to change is the last one, labelled Preferred.
For most programs, an increase of 50% is a good starting point; for small apps like control panels and printing software, doubling is okay; for browsers, email apps, and graphics apps, try at least doubling or tripling the original Preferred amount to start with.
Replace the old number in the box with the new one - no commas - close the window, and you're done.
There are a few tricks you can do with Sherlock - for example, restricting its search to just a single folder. This can be very handy to save time when doing a Find By Content search.

This month I downloaded the newest version of PAGES. Now when I try to open the documents made with this program it says "You need a newer version of PAGES to open this document." I go to the App Store and says it has downloaded. What to do?

This month I downloaded the newest version of PAGES. The documents I have typed using this App will now not open and the message says-"You need a newer version of PAGES to open this document. Could anyone help me with this please. Thanks.

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

You can add the icon of the missing Pages on your Dock or open Pages from the Apple menu > Recent Items list.
Or you can archive Pages 5 so that it doesn't automatically open.
If you are unhappy about this review/rate Pages 5 in the App Store.

When I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, my previously downloaded music in iTunes library disappeared on my computer? There was no warning of this happening. What do I do?

Ok, so I downloaded the newest version of iTunes on my home PC, and the previously downloaded music in my iTunes library disappeared on my computer. What happened? I can sync my iPod but I am not sure how long ago I synced it so I may be missing some music downloads. Why did this happen, and more importantly, why didn't iTunes warn me it could happen and advise me to sync with another device before the download? I am not very happy about this and it's a huge issue for iTunes if this is happening. It makes me very wary of iTunes.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps then you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

I tried to download the newest version for iTunes and now it is saying something about apple mobile device. Never heard of this before and now it will not finish downloading because of this. What is it?? What do i need to do to get itunes to download onto my computer again??

Do you currently have the iCloud control panel installed? If so, uninstall that. Can you do the deletion now?

I try to download the newest version of iTunes, but get the following message: "Install iTunes.pkg". This package type requires Mac OS X 10.5." What do I do now?

I try to download the newest version of iTunes, but get the following message: "Install iTunes.pkg". This package type requires Mac OS X 10.5." What do I do now?
I have Mac OS X 10.4.11, and don't know how to upgrade to 10.5.

Here are ways to update to Lion (Mac OS X 10.7):
http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/
It requires you to have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) installed, which can be obtained from the Apple Store.
You being on Mac OS X 10.4 makes it an old system, 10.6 and 10.7 require an Intel processor at least with Lion demanding an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor.
What system do you have?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The iPhone 5c needs iTunes 11.1, which requires Mac OS X 10.6.8. See if your Mac can be upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://support.apple.com/kb/sp575 If so, buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Then, make a backup of your data with Time Machine or Disk Utility's Restore, insert the disc and follow its steps to upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. You shouldn't lose compatibility with any application. After upgrading, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version. It will install iTunes 11.1, so you will be able to sync the iPhone 5c with your Mac

Go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download and download the current version.

I've downloaded the newest version 3 times and I'm still getting a message saying I don't have the lasted version. I can't open Pandora because of it. What am I missing?

I've downloaded the newest version of firefox 3 times and am still getting message that I don't have a current version. I'm not able to open Pandora.com because of this. What am I missing?

Hi cheryl28,
It looks like your System Details say you are still on version 3. How have you been trying to update Firefox? Were there any errors during the update? You should look at [[Updating Firefox]] for details.
You could also try going to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
# Download the full installer for 8.0.1 to your desktop.
# Close Firefox. Be sure that it isn't still running in the background.
# Run the installer and re-open Firefox.
Hopefully this helps!
