What if I can't get something to open in Rosetta?

Hi all, I'm trying to run the latest Myst games for mac, but just found out they will not run on the intel chips. But the readmes say they should work if you use rosetta. The problem is, when I launch them, I don't think they open in Rosetta, the program just crashes. Is there a way around this?

Ian,
You won't find an option to open an application in Rosetta unless it is Universal Binary. Since the app in question is not UB, the check box will not appear.
If I am not mistaken, the Myst games use Quicktime. Since the game, itself, is running in Rosetta, it will probably need to run Quicktime in Rosetta. Try setting Quicktime to open in Rosetta. Let us know if it makes a difference.

I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed. Now it's only playing in the right speaker. Not even regestering a left side in the master volume? What happened, how can I get both sides back?

Thank you for that info.
For video, the codec is MPEG-4 Video (XVID) and for audio it says MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3 (mpga).
There are two issues with that file:
The first is the Xvid CODEC (not meant for editing), and then the MPEG Audio/MPGA. I would convert that file, to something that is more editable.
Good luck,

I recently updated to Firefox 8 and ever since I have done that, I can't get it to open. Every time I click on the icon on my desktop to open it, it crashes. What can I do to fix this?

My hard drive crashed on my Imac 24" 2009, i put in a new hard drive 2TB and a SSD drive 240 GB and removed the opticdrive. What external DVD can I get to work with the IMac? The Apple super drive is not compatible.

Virtually any DVD burner that can connect to your Mac will work. They start at $40 on Amazon.

my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

Hi there,
This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.

You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
Nathan

I've lost the voice track when I listen to music with headphones.What happened? Can I get the complete sound back?

Try compressed air. Try tweezers and a magnifying glass with good light.
The next step would be to Google an iPhone repair service in your area or use this as a good reason to upgrade.

TS1717 My iTunes worked fine yesterday but today I can't get it to open. What could be causing this?

I don't understand why my iTunes worked perfectly yesterday but today I can't get it to open at all. I did the autoruns.zip and that didn't help at all. I also redownloaded the iTunes but that didn't help either. Can you help me? Thank you, Lynne Heimann

Alas, I have tried that. I have also done this complicated uninstall and reinstall process. I have figured out in my battles with iTunes today that it will open when I am not connected to the Internet but as soon I turn on the wifi and go the iTunes store, iTunes crashes again.

How can I set up a WD My Cloud with my Airport Extreme - I can't get it to open ports 80 and 443?

For remote internet access to the WD My Cloud Mirror, I have been advised that ports 80 and 443 must be open in order to reach the WDMyCloudMirror. My Motorola Gateway (Surfboard SB6141) is connected directly to my Airport Extreme (WAN port) which is in turn connected to the WDMyCloudMirror (all by ethernet cables). I do not have FULL instructions on how to properly manually configure the Airport Extreme to open the ports. I have tried an earlier posting which provides many of the steps, but not all of the required information is included (how to determinge the IP address to be assigned, etc.). I did the best I could with the information given, but the test using "YouGetSignal" showed the ports as still closed and attemps to reach the WDMyCloudMirror by the internet failed as well (of course). The WDMyCloudMirror has enough Apple "stuff" included in it (software, I suspect) that an Apple legal acceptance is required for its set-up, yet Western Digital Tecnical Support is unable (or unwilling?) to help with this aspect of its configuration required to work within the Airport Extreme environment. I have returned the WD My Cloud Mirror to Amazon as "not able to work", but I have not given up the hope that I can eventually get the ports open so that I can get this cloud device, or one similar, to permit remote internet access.

Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

Can't get itunes to open

i downloaded the updated software for itunes and i can't get it to open. I double click on the icon and it won't. i go to start and try to open it that way and it won't work. i don't get any type of error message...or any message at all. it just acts as if i'm not even clicking it. help!

replying to elude
1. I do have Norton Anti-Virus 2005
2. When i attempt to launch QuickTime, i get a message that says "Some of your QuickTime software is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version." If I click the "Do it Now" button, it tells me that my software is already the latest version. If I click cancel, the message pops up again. If I hit cancel again, then QuickTime will launch.
3. Yes, in Task Manager, iTunes.exe shows up for a few seconds and then disappears without iTunes loading.
good gracious. you may have two different things going on at once here. (the particular QuickTime symptoms you're getting are not typically associated with an itunes error message free launch failure.)
just doublechecking something first ... you're getting no error messages whatsoever when launching itunes? (my questions for wazzle were designed to sort through possible causes for error message free itunes launch failures.)

HT1152 All this help info tells me to use idvd, but I can't get it to open. I asked the applecare guy and he says the new macs don't include idvd any more, so why do all the menu and help items say to use it? I know there's other dvd burner software, wh

I want to burn my imovie to a dvd. All the help info says to use idvd but I can't get it to open. The applecare guy said idvd is no longer included in new macs, so why are all the instructions still saying to use it? Is one of the other software offerings, like dvd Cfreator for Mac, ok to use for this? What's the best one?

Please clarify what you mean by "you can't get it to open". Is iDVD on your system or not? If this is a new iMac, iDVD is no longer bundled with new Macs, so the application just isn't there and hence of course can't be opened. You can still purchase it as part of the retail iLife '11 box, though, if you want it, and it would be less expensive than DVD Creator (which I have no experience with), even though you'll get some redundant applications.
Regards.
