What to do if it is telling me I have "Insufficient Permissions?"
Well I've been having several problems.
First is when I go to install it I get a screen saying that the file "C:\Windows\System\32\Macroomed\Flash\NPSWF32.dll:5" could not be written due to insufficient permissions. I have no idea how to fix this or change it.
Here's a picture of the message that pops up:
And whenever I try to click the troubleshooting for it, it wont take me anywhere. The link is basically useless. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling flash player. But nothing seems to work.
Next is whenever I try to go install the plugins (for mozilla firefox) I get messages saying that the file cannot be downloaded. Or there is an error or something, but overall it basically says that the plugin cannot be installed.
I hope someone can help me. Any advice would be insanely helpful.
Hi, ok that's out of the way. When you had a problem trying to Install Flash Player in FF, I'm not sure what that Insuffieient Permissions message was referring to. If you are the Administrator, which you must be or you wouldn't have been able to Install in IE, then it may have been about not using the DLM.
The first thing you want to make sure is that the Security for the Internet Zone is set to Medium. And now that it is appearing that Firefox is getting restrictive about permissions, etc. as ActiveX is under IE, we need to make sure that no Anti-Virus will be blocking it. If your AV didn't block IE, then we are ok on that.
Download the Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Once that is done, Close All browsers. RUN the Installer and when it is finished, Reboot Once.
Then check your Flash files folder and post back the files now listed. Then check the plug-ins for that SWF and make sure it is Enabled.
Hopefully this will be successful. If you get any messages during this Install, make a note and let me know.
Thanks,

My iPad keeps telling me I need to manage my storage BUT I don't know how to. I have managed to use back up onto the iCloud, but it still tells me I have to manage my storage. How do I do this. Someone mentioned that because I have 3 films already downloaded onto the iPad I have used a lot of storage. They have also said if I delete the films already purchasediTunes remembers these and when I want to watch them at a furture date I will be able to!
As you have probably already gathered I am not a very competant user and I would welcome some advice PLEASEiCloud doesn't backup the actual films, it backs up your purchase history:
iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
You can only re download items if they are still available in the App Store.
Books can be downloaded again (it is audiobooks which are a once-only download).
Your best bet is to transfer all purchases to iTunes on your computer, before deleting items from iPad. -
How do I have insufficient funds?! I've tried calling Apple but they're tech support is "on break".

I installed the new 5.0 version of Firefox and the thing keeps telling me i have to resart my system to finish the install of an old version. I resart and it doesnt do anything. What is wrong and how do I fix this. I have been using firfox for more than a year now and have never had trouble till this issue came up
If the toolbar installed something into the rest of the system, you will see an entry in the Control Panel in the software uninstall applet which should be removed. You might need to make a new profile if you cannot find an extension that has something to do with the toolbar.

what happens if your trying to update your ipod but its telling me i have purchases that has not been transferred to my itunes libary and its says i can still do it but im scared its gonna erase something but i dont know how to transfer things either!!!
Transfer the purchass by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
If not transferred, the purchases will not be on the iPod after the update. -
it keeps telling me i have to go to iphone support when trying to purchase coins on a slot game. what do i do?
Sounds like there is something wrong with your account. You can contact the iTunes Support in the following manner:
iTunes Store - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - follow the onscreen instructions
Just explain the error prompt you are getting, and they will be able to assist in fixing the issue. -
I have a Mac from 2008 and it originally came with 10.5.4 and my brother-n-law updated to 10.6.8 but when I am trying to download iphoto its telling me to have 10.7.5 or later. What can I do? Thx
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.

I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!
This is from my personal experience:
It almost happens every time I tried to connect with Sync from my Android phone, the window asking me to enter my account name and password always shows up. And if I enter the information, it'll say I have the wrong password, etc. My workaround is to click the "cancel" button. But it does not cancel immediately. The window will stay on for a while (usually a few minutes), then it'll disappear and start connecting to Sync. And it'll connect and sync successfully.
You can try this workaround but you have to be patient to wait for the window to disappear.
I don't know what is the cause of this, but it has happened ever since FF4 for Mobile came out. I have searched around and couldn't find any solutions. -
App store keeps telling me I have an update but I don't.
The app store on my iPad had an update for an app the other day but rather than updating I chose to delete the app as it was of no use. However the app store keeps telling me I have an update but when I open the app store none are listed.
Anyone experienced this?
Also the iPad keeps telling me my mail settings are incorrect and that I should check them yet I can still send and receive my mail.
Anyone experienced this?A couple of thoughts.
Once you purchase an app, you will continue to get the update notification even if you delet the app. the notification is based on your purchase history and I don't think there is anything you can do to stop the update notices.
As for the email alert - no clue - but this is what I would do. Restart your iPad. Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. To start up again, hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Maybe the email alert will go away. -
I had a hard disc failure and had to reload Design suite 6 from disc. The program is now telling me I have 7 days to register the product or it will quit working. The serial number is already registered. It won't connect to the adobe site from the popup screen that comes up telling me I only have 7 days to register. What do I do?
Go to the Help menu in Photoshop and choose Activate. It should open a wizard allowing you to do this.
If that fails, Contact Customer Care after clicking on one of the activation links. The more information you give them, the easier it will be for them to help you.

I have cleared my mailbox but it is telling me I have 4.2g in it . How do I reset this
I have cleared my mailbox but it is telling me I have 4.2g in it . How do I reset this
You leave us to guess what you think is the "latest version".
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 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 almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

please how do I solve this problem my I tunes keep telling me I have a billing problem but I don't buy stuff bought a song one day and I paid for it done now I can't do envy thing ther is a billing problem I need this stuff sorted out now
Are you aware of any problem with a previous purchase ? If not then you should contact iTunes Support and see if they can tell you what it is (until it's sorted you won't be able to download anything from the store) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If you go into the payment details section on your account then does it say anything about your card being declined or not accepter or if the security code needs re-entering ? -
Stop Firefox from telling you, you have not used it in a while and asking to reset it permanetly.
I need to permanently, FOREVER, stop Firefox from telling me I have not used it in a while and prompting me to reset it. I have 100s of PCs that are frozen and as far as Firefox is concerned they ARE ALWAYS in need of being reset. This must go away. When Firefox starts on these PCs it MUST NEVER ask a question or prompt the user for anything EVER. All the decisions have already been made for the user and that MUST NOT CHANGE.
Thanks for the reply. I have heard that about the file, but I need to know how to tell Firefox that I don't care about when it was last used etc. I can delete the file, but it will come back. So the real answer I need is how to tell Firefox "not to check" when it was last used in the first place, not what file contains that information.
For now I will delete the file then, without starting Firefox I will freeze it and hope that will work. But Firefox needs a way that I can just tell it to not care.
Thanks again for help,

When trying to purchase songs on my itunes with a gift card, its telling me i have to have the correct billing information on my debit card which I know is correct already. How do I go about fixing this?
Part of the validation for credit cards is that they need to be registered to exactly the same name and address that you have on your iTunes account, which prepaid cards tend not to be. Do you have a proper credit card that you could use ? Or are iTunes gift cards available in your country so that you could try using them as your payment method ?
Until you have a valid payment method on your account and what you owe iTunes has been paid off then you won't be able to download any item from the store, including free apps (and updates to apps).
