Why does Apple store insist I have one update available after I've installed it?
I've updated iPhoto on my Air to Version 9.4.1, which I assume is the most current version. Yet App store insists I have 1 update available (the "#1" continues to show both on the App Store dock icon as well as the update icon in the upper menu when I open the App Store icon. Yet the only program I see that's eligible for updating in App store is iPhoto 9.4.1, with the dim "Installed" indication at the far right of the screen.
Is this merely a temporary quirk that will eventually go away--or is it an indication that my install was defective or incomplete?
(My previous attempts to update were rejected because of insufficient space. So I proceeded to delete duplicates and unnecessary items. It's possible I fell short. How can I know for sure whether the update was successfully completed?)

if i have to read any comment by matt n again i will throw up...in my mouth. i have gone all over google trying to figure out what the f ff did to me without my permission, i have updates turned off so there should be no prompting to restart, there should be a polite offer not a forced update. i am angry and so are a ton of people.
everytime i go to a new complaint, another angry fellow ff user there is matt n with his infuriating smiling little picture...telling me about the awesome safety and security of the new ff...ignoring that a supposed safe but ugly and unusable browser is worse than a customized, beautiful, well functioning browser...with supposed safety issues. i am so angry i cannot express how this has wasted my time. i have been online for 2 hours now figuring out how to fix, apparently i cannot. my old theme is not compatible now...so i am screwed.
good bye. if i wanted chrome i would have had chrome. but i have no choice now.

App Store says there is one update available. But the Updates page shows a blank screen. Have tried syncing with iTunes on mac as well. But nothing seems to work. Am using Iphone 5 6.1.4. Help
Next time that happens while on WiFi, turn WiFi off in settings, wait about 30 seconds or so, then turn WiFi back on. Sometimes you have to do this two or three times, but this fixes that issue as well.

Why does Apple need to charge for feature updates, but Sony doesn't?
Ok, so I know all about the subscription-based accounting reasons for why Apple has to charge a nominal fee for firmware updates that provide new features to the iPod touch (but not iPhone).
I don't have a problem with this fee, and personally think its quite reasonable, and am happy to pay it.
However, I'm curious as to why Apple has to charge for these updates, but Sony doesn't - and I've not been able to find a reason.
Since the release of both Sony's PSP and PS3 video game consoles, Sony have frequently released firmware updates that add many minor and some very significant new features to both consoles, as Apple have done with the iPod touch.
However, Sony has never charged for these new features. Does anyone really know why there's this difference?You better believe that any company doing business in the US has to follow US laws. You don't get to just say, oh well we have our headquarters in another country so we can do what we want in yours. Hehe I am pretty sure diplomatic immunity doesn't come with selling something in the US. The accounting reason is a sham. Apple knows that their customers are desperate for "coolness" and will sacrifice features and customer service and pay for that privelege.
What really gets me is that I already bought the January update. The only thing 2.0 adds is the "priveledge" of paying Apple to buy applications. So of course I bought the 2.0 update because I am an idiot and now my audiobooks will not play. Will they support it no. I buy an update from them, it screws up my ipod and then I can't even call or email to get some help. Instead I have to travel an hour to the nearest Apple store. I recently bought my first iPod but after all the horrendous experiences I have had with their lack of support and idiotic "geniuses" at the genius bar, I will never buy another apple product. Which is too bad because they have the most elegant and fun to use interfaces. However, I would rather have something a bit less elegant but that I can get service on without a 3 hour time commitment on my part. -
This morning I had no trouble sending mail from ALB. Then I did have trouble at the Marriott in Baltimore. This is a recurrent issue. Some hot spots work fine, some only allow me to retrieve mail, but not send any. More than frustartiong as it denies me working ability with mail on the road!
I have noticed this too because I work a lot overseas and live out of many hotels. This is not just a Mail issue but also with Outlook, and it has to do with your outgoing port configurations. It's not Apple's fault it is the ISP behind the wifi and some of these ports are blocked for whatever reason. The only thing that I do is try different mail accounts, ie Yahoo, Google, Mac, until you find one that works. Sounds stupid but that's the only way that
I can keep communicating back to the US. -
Why does apple ipad and iphone have problems with comcast?
We attempt to send pictures through our comcast wifi account and gets to about 90%and freezes. Have reset modem, and router, have turned off phone and reset it. Have switched to 4G then pictures will send. Only has problem when connected to wifi. As my ipad is wifi, I cannot send pictures at all with it.
Did not have this problem until iOS 6 update.
Any suggestions?My iPad and other devices have no problems with Comcast, but I didn't get my WiFi router from them. If you did, your router may need a firmware update, or you may need to get a different model of router.

Why Does Apple Store Software Updates in the Windows 7 'Roam' folder?
I noticed that the Software Updates are being stored in the 'Roam' folder for the Windows 7 user profile. Any comments on why that may be? And is there any way to change it so that these updates live in the 'local' folder, to prevent long login/logoff times?

I'll be waiting in line for the iPhone 5 tonight and would like to upgrade my phone as well as my two daughters phones tomorrow, all of which are eligible for upgrade. Will I be aloud to purchase 3 iPhones at once tomorrow or is it one per customer?
The only place you can find out for sure is from AT&T. Eligibility also depends on how much the family member is spending on their phone and how long they've had it. Added family members typically are paying much less than the primary account holder, and this if factored in.
To find out, log onto your AT&T account and click "Check Upgrade Options." -
Why does a photo from PDF have lines through it after conversion?
I am trying to edit a flier that was sent to me as a pdf. Have tried several times to convert and there are white lines through it. It was originally created in Publisher, if that helps.

I just bought a new desktop and will be taking my old one to the apple store tomorrow to have the data transferred. Does the transfer include the transfer of programs or just data?
They will simply use Migration Assistant to transfer your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences. This is something you could do yourself. You would need a Firewire cable to connect between your old computer and your new one. Migration Assistant is installed in the Utilities folder of your new computer.

Why does apple allow apps in the App Store hijack your Internet when certain websites? Why doesn't apple remove their products from the App Store?.
Apple saw it as their responsibility since the redirection took me to the App Store. They assisted me in stopping the redirection which is occurring on many peoples iPhones. It's a have java script problem that adking is using to get you to buy their games. The websites work normal and then all of the sudden the website is taken over by adking.com. You can no longer use the website as it immediately takes you to the App Store without ever showing a popup to cancel the redirection. They were very helpful fixing the problem should others experiencing this specifically with adking.com.
No need to get defensive. I'm not the only one experiencing the problem Apple said. -
I open Address Book, go into Preferences, select Template and under the Names field (friend, assistant, father, etc) I add a custom field called "Principal".
I also add two more custom fields in the Email area.
Quit Address Book then relaunch. Add a new contact and the new custom fields, Principal, etc. are there. All good so far.
I have a Now Contact file with about 200 contacts in it. I export all fields as a Text file, Tab delimited. No problems there. With Address Book launched, select Import, pick the text file, leave Text Encoding on Automatic and click Open.
The window that shows the fields for Address Book and fields for the text file side by side opens. This is where you match up the correct fields for importing. If I go to one of the fields from the text file that I created a custom field for, click under the Address Book heading on the Do not import, scroll thru the Apple choices of fields, none of the custom fields show up. Only the original Apple ones are there. Why does Apple let you create them in the Template area but not have them available for importing? Does anyone have suggestions on getting around this?While most likely not of interest to you, Spotlight can also tell you where the files it finds are located
Hover the mouse pointer over the name, and press Command-Option and the path to the file will be displayed.
As for opening a terminal session in the directory where a file is located, there is Applescripts that do just that as well as specific features in Lion/Mountain Lion terminal:

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
Thank you.
Saranbar,
Thank you for your reply.
However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
MichaelLAX,
Thank you for your reply.
I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
Frank,
Thank you for your second reply.
I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none." The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
Any futher thoughts?
xdab,
Thank you for your reply.
"Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
YES!! This is exactly the problem.
"If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
"By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
Regards,

Why does Apple not give a list of error messages and possible solutions? I have the (-54) error continually that has suddenly appeared and cannot find a solution, even though other users seem to have the same problem.
This is a user to user forum. Apple isn't here and won't answer you. You need to contact Apple directly. You can use the Contact button at the bottom of the screen.
