Why does the mac dock firefox icon suddenly say c-vcxzcxz...cxzcdxz instead of firefox?

The icon name changed yesterday, no reason.

hello creambo, please update firefox to the latest version (firefox 18 at the moment) & see if this already addresses the issue.

Why does the Mac App Store invite me to install already installed software?

When I view Purchased Items at the Mac App Store, the button for some of my installed apps reads "Installed" but for others it reads "Install." If I click on the Install button for these apps I get a message that reads: We could not complete your purchase - [this software] is already installed on your computer. Choose Software Update ... to check for available updates." But, Software Update has nothing for me...

Still a puzzle after several hours...

Why does the Apple ID sign in window say connection failed when I try to sign in?

I bought a Macbook Pro from a friend but I need to clear it and set up everything. I am trying to download the new OS software. However when I try to sign in to download the new software "Connection failed" pops up in little red letters. Why is this happening? My apple ID is correct and verified. I have no clue what to do. Help!

The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
1. You don't own another Mac.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
2. You do own another Mac.
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
Once booted from the disc, the USB device, or Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

Why does the Latest update for iOS 7 say firmware not compatible

Hi,
I have tried updating my daughters iPad mini (original not retina) with latest update. I have it connected to the mac via iTunes and it downloads the update ok. When it tries to install it it says the firmware is not compatible. It is a wifi only model. I have updated 4 iPhones, 1 identical iPad mini and my iPad 2 with no problems. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Reset iPad and try again.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

Why does the iTunes dock icon bounce when quitting the app?

ITunes 11.1.2 on Mac OSX 10.6.8.
Every time I shut down iTunes, the dock icon bounces. This never happens with any other application. Dock icons are supposed to bounce when you start up an app, not when you quit it, Right?
Thanks.

Hello there, ocsimple.
The following Knowledge Base article clarifies what it means when an icon bounces on your dock:
About the Dock (Mac OS X)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1779
Particularly:
Bouncing icon in the Dock
An application's icon may bounce in the Dock to request your attention.
When you close iTunes, is it prompting you with a window or some other message when you click the bouncing icon?
Cheers,
Pedro.

Why does the Finder "undo" my icon improvements?

I have the following problem:
I use CocoThumbX or GraphicConverter to create large-size Finder icons for JPEG files. In the Finder, the icon changes for just a second or two to what I want. Right after that, the icon reverts to its formerly blurry appearance.
Clearly, something in the Finder settings is doing this, but I can't figure out what it is. Any ideas?

MO'Connell wrote:
First of all, the shuffle will never show a steady green light as long as it's mounted by the finder. That's how you not only know it's charged, but safe to remove. Which is why I posted the question.
We're at cross-purposes here... EJECTing the shuffle will still allow it to
charge NORMALLY (eg to green). However, I didn't know abou the rest of your
requirement
Secondly, my seven year old son only has access to the dock. My user is always locked, so he CAN'T just right click on things in the finder.
I want him to be able to put the shuffle on the dock, let it charge, and then take it off without ever interfacing with the computer. Ever.
This problem must be a 10.5.2 thing, BUT isolating your son from your computer can also be accomplished by buying an iPod USB Power Adaptor (see store.apple.com ) which allows charging without a computer.

To start with, you have no document type declaration on first line of your pages which sends them into Quirks Mode.
File menu > Convert > select a document type that fits your coding skills (HTML 4 transitional or strict).
Run your code through these on-line tools and fix any reported errors. If that doesn't fix the problem, post back.

Probably a noob question, but why does the Mac OSX volume control window...

...randomly pop up sometimes. I think I'm triggering it, but I don't know how.

It pops up when you use a dock and control the volume or when your sliding volume and you press the Home button. Its there so you won't have to navigate to the Music app and see the volume

Why does the Mac Pro merge email accounts?

When I set up the email the MacPro merged mine and my husbands accounts. How can I separate them?

INBOX is by design, the Union of all of your listed email accounts. I have six email accounts for various purposes that feed into my inbox.
If you want to look at them individually, just select the specific email account you wish to see displayed.
Mac OS X is prepared to have login accounts for each person, so that all their individual preferences (screensaver, opened Applications, desktop background, and lots of other items) can be tracked separately.
If you do not want to view your husband's email in your Inbox, give him his own login and put his email account there instead of in your inbox.

Why does the Mac Airs keep dropping the network

We are using WEP and or WPA-WPA2 Personal. Once the lid is closed and reopend, system ask for admin user name and password. This happens on just the Macbook Airs. Our WAP's are Cisco. Or when a teacher is working with the unit, the signal will just drop for a few minutes, then come back up. Any one else having this issue and what did you do to resolve thie problem?
Thank.

Might be some of the same issues in this thread assuming your MBA is a 2013 model

Why does the Mac App Store say "Item not currently available in the U.S. store" when I try to upgrade to OS X Yosemite?

This showed up when I clicked "Upgrade Now" from the Apple website.

Because Apple hasn't completed the release yet and/or their servers are flooded.

Why does the Mac App Store default back to the first page of results?

When I search in the MAS for any app and there are more than one page of results, while I am browsing pages 2 and up when I select an app to look at and go back to the search results (either by swiping on my trackpad OR clicking the back button) the list of pages defaults to the first page of results. Is this a bug or is there some setting somewhere that I can change to make it work right??

This is a user forum; whether or not anybody at Apple sees this is not known.
You could log a feature request with Apple via the bugreport tool, if you have access to that tool.

HT2499 why does my dvd player all of sudden say "supported disc not available" for dvds i have played in the past

My dvd player has been displaying "support disc not available" for all dvd's that i put in that just weeks ago were playing fine. ive tried cleaning the player and that did nothing...dont know what to do

I'm having the same problem lately. I have a mid 2010 21.5" iMac with an internal SuperDrive running Yosemite. I tried putting in "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" and "The Giver" rented from RedBox. Both spin sputter for a bit and then eject the disk back out. So, it never mounts and no software (Finder, Disk Utility, DVD Player) ever gets a chance to see it. Both play fine in a 15 year old DVD player, and my purchased copy of "The Dark Knight" mounts just fine in the iMac. So, I have to assume that something is being done to the DVD's that rental companies are given to prevent them from mounting or something.
Not having any luck on Google trying to confirm that.
I guess I need to amend this. Both DVD's play fine in a early 2011 13" Macbook Pro with the internal SuperDrive. It's running Mavericks still and has a "MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-8A8". The iMac has a "OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5680H". Not sure if it's the drive, the OS, or what (although I will say I'm fairly certain I was having this problem on the iMac before Yosemite, so it's probably not the OS).
