When opening firefox I get, Can't connect to server on my homepage, but I can then open websites from my bookmarks. How can I resolve this?
I get a long load time when I open firefox 35. Then cannot connect to server, however i can then open websites fine via my bookmarks list. Tries reinstalling, did not help, made google my homepage in options, does not help.
Does this happen every time? Or is it only when your computer is first turned on/waken up?
If you open another browser (Internet Explorer/Chrome/...) does it do the same thing?
I might be that your computer takes a few seconds to (re-)establish its network connectivity after sleeping. Try this
#Click Start
#Type Computer Management
#Click the first result or push enter
#Click '''Device Manager'''
#Expand network adapters
#Right click on your network adapter then click '''Properties'''
#Click on '''Power Management'''
#Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"

When I go to get add-ons (7.0.1), nothing shows up, except the "what are add-ons" info bubble. How do I make this work?. The rest of the functions in that section seem to work. And I can search MY add-ons, but not Available Add-ons.
Click on Extensions on the left-side.

I have recently re-installed i-Work because I was getting a "pages cannot be opened because of a problem" response and I was unable to read any of my documents or open any attachments from my e-mails. After the install, 'pages' still will not open and gives the same response. How do I restore my 'pages' app?
I've never seen this error but I'd assume that it can be fixed the same way many Mac application errors are: open your Library folder and look inside the Preferences folder for the com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist file and throw it away.

This is a 5th Gen nano that I'm talking about.
That's a video file, correct?
There is a limit to the resolution that is playable on an iPod nano, 5th gen. According to the specs
"H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats."
So generally, 640x480 resolution is the limit for the video, although the screen itself is only 376x240. iTunes will not load any video that is not supported by the iPod. For example, if your videos are "HD," they exceed the limit.
There is a command in iTunes that can covert video to a supported format, as long as the video is not DRM'ed (protected). Hey...! I just noticed that command is in a new location in the latest iTunes. So this is for the latest version...
Select the video in iTunes. Go up to the menu bar and
File -> Create New Version -> Create iPod or iPhone Version
If conversion for that video is not allowed, the command will be grayed out. If it works, the resulting version should be loadable and playable on your iPod. -
I'm trying to burn a Magic DVD in iDVD and I keep getting a message stating that there is not enough free disc space for encoding the remaining assets. How do I resolve this?
It means your hard drive is too full to accomodate the project and its many swap files etc.
You need to move some files (not applications) to your external hard drive, and keep at least 25-30GB free. -
My iPad conveys that it is disabled, and that I need to connect to iTunes. When I connect to iTunes I get a message that I need to enter my pass code and open my Ipad, but I don't get the screen to open with a password. How do I fix this?
You will need to restore it. It may not sync, but the iPad's sidebar has to appear you can restore it and it will be as the last time ou synced it to iTunes. For more info:

I use Yahoo mail on my iPad Air - when I attempt to get mail I get the message "Connection to Server Failed."
Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again.
Are you trying to access your mail on your regular internet connection or on a new one? I know I have issues accessing my yahoo mail via the mail app if I'm on and AT&T hotspot. But if I use safari to go in via the mobile site (m.yahoo.com) I can access my mail. And yahoo also has their own mail app. So the 'how' may help find the issue.
If it's a new to you hotspot then the best way to fix it may just be to work around it (using safari)
Another thing to do could be to go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and delete your yahoo address then exit out, go back in and add the account back. Sometimes things get confuzzled and the best way to fix it is just to start over. Doing this should not effect your mail account, it just deletes it off your device and then adds the info back in. -
When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?
Usually the Window menu allows you to adjust window placement in Microsoft Office products.
If not, connect an external display or projector and change the resolution to the maximum.
Save the document with the window residing on the main screen with the Dock.
That will force it to open on the main screen in the future. -
I am updating iphoto 9.1 to 9.3 and every time when I clicked for update aps store asked to open it in the account where you purchased. I am using the same account and its available in the purchased item of this account. But in my purchased item library it indicates that you update iPhoto. I am not sure which account the aps store asking. Can someone resolve this problem.
Contact App Store support. They're the folks who can help with Account issues.

i just updated my mac and when i went to open iphoto it says it "can not open because of a problem" how do i fix this?
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List. -
When I sync recently bought albums to my iPhone I get duplicated tracks. How can I resolve this. The duplicated tracks do not appear in my itunes library, just on my iPhone.
It seems to happen with songs that were purchased before synchronizing the new iPhone
I will tell you how I fixed it.
Note: I have iTunes in spanish so I will try to translate and figure out the commands that appear on ITunes in english. I will put my translations into brackets. English is not my native language. I will do my best.
The workaround is:
1.- Dragg no working songs from iTunes to a folder on the hard disk. (Only for backup purposes)
2.- Deleted those songs from iTunes library.
3.- On the left panel in ITunes click on "Purchased" under the STORE option. All your purchased songs will appear on the right panel
4.- At the bottom and right there is the option : "Download Previous Purchases". Click there.
5.- Click on the option "Are not in my Library" (top right)
6.- The songs you deleted from iTunes will appear.
7.- Downloaded them again. (You have the option to download at the bottom right)
8.- Syncronize your iPhone and that's all. -

I am getting an error 36 when I try to restore my iphoto library from my time machine. Can someone please advise on how I should resolve this? I have tried repairing permissions in the iPhoto library and that didn't help. I've also tried using different versions of the iPhoto library from the time machine. That resulted in the error as well.
You can ask Time Machine queries on the firm for whatever version of the OS you have:
