I reseted my MacBook Air, and now I don't have my iphoto and microsoft office anymore, please help me..how can i get them back?

Thank you for your question,
If you have the installation disc for iLife and MS Office, then you can install it from there. With iPhoto, if you downloaded it from the Mac App Store, you can redownlad it fron the "Purchases" tab.

What is GameCenter APP and how did it get on my phone?

Hello all,
I can't seem to delete it and have no knowledge of how it got on my phone.
I never established an account.
Thanks,
Al

Ok Thanks.
When did it show up ? During one of the recent IOS upgrades?
Never remember it and seems strange that there is no way to see where it came from.

What is safe mode and how did I get it on the screen?

Hey there
I can help you with that! Safe Mode is an option the user can choose, causing the phone to start up running only the factory installed services and applications. This is commonly used for troubleshooting purposes to determine if an issue is caused by a downloaded or cached element.
To exit Safe Mode, simply power your device off and back on!
I hope this helps
Charise

hmm ... _*safe mode*_ is usually employed as a means to troubleshoot Mac OS. did you by any chance hit the "Shift" key during sartup ?
only other reference to +iTunes safe mode+ i could dig up is this rather old article: http://tech.kateva.org/2008/07/itunes-keyboard-shortcuts-safe-mode.html.

What is Silverlight 5.1.31211.0 and how did it get on my computer?

I've checked sllauncher.exe, the registry, various update checker programs, the official Silverlight download page, and the official version history, and they all confirm the following:
[1] The latest version of Silverlight is 5.1.30514.0.
[2] The version of Silverlight on my computer is 5.1.31211.0.
I've been unable to find any official reference to the version I'm apparently running. Should I downgrade, as recommended by the official download page?
I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit.

Hi,
You could try to download silverlight from below:
http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/get-started/install/default.aspx?reason=unsupportedplatform
Besides, you could refer to silverlight history release:

What is google software update.app and how did it get on my computer?

I don't remember installing this.

Those instructions are, according to Google, still valid, so either you're not entering the command in correctly - they have to be entered in exactly as given - or the software is in your user library folder rather than the system library folder. Here's Google's version of the instructions which may be easier to read:

How did Crawler get on my computer and is it part of Mozilla Firefoz?

When I opened my Firefox it went to Crawler instead of my browser. I did not ask for the change or did I download the program.I have been told its one of yours.

hello, it might be an issue with malicious software active on your pc - this is certainly not part of firefox! please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

HT202879 I am switching to Apple macbook pro from Windows laptop. Is Apple compatible with Microsoft Office? How can I transport from Windows to Mac? What I have saved on external hardrives, will I be able to open it on Mac?

I am switching to Apple macbook pro from Windows laptop. Is Apple compatible with Microsoft Office? How can I transport from Windows to Mac? What I have saved on external hardrives, will I be able to open it on Mac?

Office for Mac, http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products, can open/edit/create Office documents.If your external drive is formatted NTFS then you can copy the Office documents to your computer and work on them. You won't be able to save the files back to your NTFS formatted drive. But you will be able to save the documents to your internal drive. You can move all the external files to your internal drive then format the external drive for Apple. Then you can copy the files back to your external drive for ongoing use.

Is Apple compatible with Microsoft Office?
Any computer is compatible as long as it can read and write Office files. But for perfect (or at least near perfect) compatibility, you would want to purchase Office 2011 for Mac.
How can I transport from Windows to Mac?
You can't directly transport any installation of Windows. All PC's come with a machine specific version of Windows intended for that PC. They don't have all of the hardware drivers the retail disks cover.
If you want Windows on your Mac, you would first purchase a full version copy (NOT an upgrade disk) of Windows 7 or 8. Those are the only supported versions on newer Macs. You install it through the supplied Boot Camp utility that comes with the Mac to create a new partition for Windows, and then install the retail copy of Windows you purchased.
The reason only these versions of Windows are supported is the same basic reason as a machine specific version of Windows for a PC. Apple only includes the necessary Mac hardware drivers for Win 7 or 8 on new Macs.
Once Windows is installed, you could then install the version of Office for Windows you already own. The nuisance of a Boot Camp partition is that you have to physically boot to either Windows or OS X, so you can only use the apps of the OS you're in at the time. To use both at once, you'd have to use virtual machine software (Parallels, VMware, VirtualBox) and then install Windows within that. Then you'd be able to run Windows inside of OS X and have access to both at the same time.

I have a long list of gibberish files, in Preferences, in my Library. What are they? How did they get there? Can I delete them?

Here is one thing I found googling for WebEx:
http://www.webex.com/why-webex/overview.html
(The x64 would most likely mean 64 bit). It may be a Windows based application/plugin, but since I had never heard of either, I'm only guessing there. If you do a search systemwide for it and don't find it plus don't know why it's there, I'd say throw it in the trash (don't empty it yet - make a note of the file path just in case you do have something installed that needs it so you can move it back).
Glad to hear it's not a torrent; some people use those not realizing that quite often there is a price to pay for downloading stuff for free that costs money elsewhere - the software packages quite often include little "add-ons" = malware which you really don't want.

Forget the Pendrive stategy...
Before attempting any Major Upgrade... get yourself an External Hard Drive... and create a Bootable Clone Backup of your current Hard Drive...
By far the easiest way to make such a Backup, is to use something like
SuperDuper http://www.shirt-pocket.com/
or CCC http://www.bombich.com/
That way, should anything untoward happen during the Upgrade,
you will NOT LOSE ANYTHING.
(Get an EHD that is at least equal to your current Drive...)
Also, Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
You should also consider more RAM... Get the Maximum you can for your Mac...
It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM

In microsoft office word, how do I delete items from the recent documents tableau? I have options for new, open, save, saveas, etc. but no option to delete. Thank you.

Hello.
I have no idea and you should contact Microsoft for support. This is Firefox's support forum.
Thank you for your understanding.

I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it.

I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode in Aperture 3. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it?

Just fishin' ...
Is by any chance "View→Show focus points" checked?
Does the frame persist after closing and re-opening Aperture?
Notice anything else different?
To post a screen shot, you first take it, them upload it. To take them, I use and recommend Skitch -- one of the best little apps ever. But this ability is built into OS X. Use Grab or Preview (search OS X Help for full directions). In Preview, use "File→Take screen shot ... →From selection ... ". Save the file in Preview to your drive. In the Discussion forum click the "Insert Image" icon (a camera) and select the file you created in Preview.

How do I delete terminal from my dock, it won't let me open a download. What is terminal and how did I get it on my dock?

How do I delete terminal from my dock, it won't let me open a download. What is terminal and how did I get it on my dock?

Just drag it off the Dock and it will go "poof"
Look at the Options... when you click on it. Unless it got set to stay there, something you did or an app did caused it to be open.
Are there any windows open attached to it?
Is it set to "open on login"?
I use it but I do not have it or keep it on my Dock. It is found in /Applications/Utilities and installers may need to use it.

What do the blue dots beside the addresses used in the messages address and how did they get there?

What do the blue dots next to the addresses in the address book used to address (TO) someone mean and how did they get there. I unsuccessfully tried to use an email address, the message address line kept giving me a red "hand slap"with an ! Point.

The blue dots mean the addressee has a device capable of using iMessage.
Try using the phone number instead of the email address to send the message.
