When I try to download something, I get a black screen, and can't download ANYTHING.

I tried to download a program from the internet using Firefox, and it gets to the .exe screen, goes black, and doesn't actually start the download....anyone know why?

The Adobe Add On is causing the problem. I have Adobe Reader on my system, so this solution allows me to use this fix:
1. Open Firefox.
2. Go to TOOLS.
3. Go to ADD-ONS.
4. Select the PLUGINGS icon at the top.
5. Disable the ADOBE ACROBAT plugin.
6. Close ADDONS windown.
7. Select PDF link; Firefox should download and allow Adobe Reader to open for you (no longer opens in Firefox).

When I highlight photo in iphoto I get a black screen and no picture

I-photo on my imac will not show photo when I highlight it,it just goes to back screen.

What version of iPhoto? What version of the OS?
There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can use my ID, which is in Mail, Contacts etc. The ID I get, I can't find, so that I can delete it. What to do?

When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can replace it with my ID in Mail, contacts etc. The ID I get without wanting it, I can't find anywhere. I have to delete it. How do I solve this problem, anyone?

My content was obtained through another ID, which popped up earlier. Now this one doesn't pop up, and my current ID doesn't pop up either, but another one. How do you find an ID which is not in the store, and not in Mail, contacts etc. either?
Or is it possible to write the ID yourself when you want to buy something, not only to have it popped up being unable to be changed?

You can try to tell the iPod to use yours:
1. Tap Settings
2. Navigate to "iTunes & App Store"
3. Tap Apple ID:
4. Tap "Sign Out"
5. Sign in to your account.

I am running OSX 10.8.3,when i try to open iDVD i get the initial screen but when i try to choose an option all i get is 'Downloading Themes' which just continues. I have left it for over an hour?

Where did you get iDVD to put on your Mac? The downloading themes are no longer available from Apple. If you copied it from a Mac that had all the themes look for the iDVD folder on that Mac which should be in the HD/Library/Applications Support folder or the Users/Home/Library/Applications Support folder. Copy it to the HD/Library/Applications Support folder for Mt Lion.
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

When I try to update Firefox I get a window saying it can't be loaded because I do not have all the necessary permissions. What does this mean and what do I do?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

1. Restart your computer to stop any Adobe process that is running.
2. Click on the following Adobe link. Go to the bottom where it says "Still having problems?". Click on the version of Flash Player for your browser.

When I try to record something it reverts to camera 1 and says "no camera found"

I have just set up my webcam (Logitech QuickCam 9000) and I can see myself in the preview window of VC 3. In the setup menue, it indicates camera 1 as Camtasia Studio and camera 2 as the webcam. I set the input device to camera 2, but when I try to record something it reverts to camera 1 and says "no camera found". What am I doing wrong?

First off, avoid any USB webcams when using Visual Communicator. See why here:

When i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs

when i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs. Take in mind this is my first time to sync with this laptop(HP 15 ENVY) and as well my laptop is just brand new. just got it a week ago. so how do i fix this prob. and also when i open my itunes store and then view my account it says error occurred either debug it through Microsoft visual studio or close program. I tired copying all the .dll files to the itunes folder didn't help

I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it.

Hi 22chill,
I recommend that we delete and re-download the movie from your purchase history:
