Why don't powerpc apps work?

Lion OX is not nice... why is it that I cant it support powerpc apps????

Lion doesn't have Rosetta. Rosetta was removed deliberately from Lion because the PowerPC has been declared obsolete by Apple. You might not think that is nice but Apple felt that supporting PowerPC for 6 years was enough. Without Rosetta, Lion is unable to execute PowerPC code.

Why don't my apps work?

I just pre-installed apps on my ipad, but as soon as I try using them they just close quickly, I tried to restart and to download a free app.

Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Why don't my apps work after installing Amazon Cloud?

Last night I downloaded Amazon Cloud onto my computer. Now I can't open any of the apps on my iPod or iPhone. I have uninstalled Amazon Cloud from my computer but still can't access the apps. I am very puzzled. Any suggestions,please?

I do not understand how installing/uninstalling Amizon Cloud on your could effect your iPod. There is not connection between the two,

Why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

Sounds like we have a similar problem. Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine. Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black. I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there. However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do. The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died. The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either. Took to Verizon, they couldn't help. Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues! One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone. Just wouldn't work at all. Did everything suggest and still not good. Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days. Very strange, and all on the 5C. What did you do? Is it working now?

Why won't podcast app work on iPhone 5 after ios 8.1.3 update?
I've restarted the phone and itunes several times, have uninstalled and reinstalled the app on the phone and itunes separately, and it still just shows 'Installing" under the greyed out app.

I have the same problem with an iPhone 5s. All podcast fail to work on the phone since updating to iOS 8.1.3. What is going on? Is Apple taking this problem serious?

Why don't Hold keyframes work on Audio Level?

Hi -
In the past (AE6.5) I recall using Hold frames to keep the Audio Level really low until the exact frame I wanted to bring it up to 0db. Now in CS4 the Hold keyframes don't work that way. I wind up using lots of extra keyframes and sliced up layers. It's pretty messy.
For example I have a narration where I have to replace one word in the center of a sentence.
Is there a setting somewhere or, is there a new way to adjust audio levels quickly besides using key frames that someone could tell me about??
Why don't Hold keyframes work on Audio levels anymore??
Thanks,
JL

"adjusting your Quicktime settings to use less hardware acceleration and a different audio buffer duration"
In AE Preferences I have "Audio Hardware" but no mention of QT. It's currently set on "Built-in Output".
Under "Output" I have an Audio Block Duration set at 01:00.
In QT preferences there is nothing about hardware acceleration or buffer duration.
Are any of these related to what you suggest?

Why don't gif animations work in Mail 3.4?

I posted this earlier today on what I thought was the 10.5 Leopard section and as it turned out, it somehow posted in the Panther OS section. Doh! I'm sorry if you saw the other post and this is the second time you have read this today.
I have read through the Mail discussions since the release of Leopard trying to figure out why gif animations do not work in Leopard Mail but they do work in Tiger Mail. I have read several explanations by several different people giving various reasons why they do not work. I have little faith in the answers I've seen to date as to why they do not work in Leopard Mail, as every now and then I get an email with an embedded gif +that does animate+ in Leopard Mail.
If I download from Leopard Mail an animated gif file to my desktop that does not animate in Mail and then open that gif in TextEdit, it animates just fine.
If I take some of the gif files that do not animate in Leopard Mail and publish to an iWeb page, they animate just fine when I visit the published page.
If I open the same email that will not animate in Mail 3.4 in my .mac/.me account using Safari, the animations animate fine in the webmail.
This one really gets me. If I forward an email that contains embedded gif files that are known to animate and that do not animate in Leopard Mail to my iPhone, +they animate just fine in iPhone Mail+. *Go figure!* Why should/would they animate in my little old iPhone 3G Mail but not my full sized Mac PowerBook, using the powerful mail application, Mail?
According to some people who have posted responses as to why Leopard Mail does not support animations, Apple does not read the Discussion posts! I have made more than one trip to the Apple Genius Bar and asked why Apple does not read the Discussions and each time the answer has been, "Apple does read the Discussions. Apple employees do not reply to them." I really do think Apple reads these posts somewhere along the line and that software changes do occur because of some of the posts.
Apple: If you are reading this, what gives with Leopard Mail and gif animations? Why the step back from gif animation in Tiger Mail to hit and miss (mostly miss) animation in Leopard Mail? Why not post an Article explaining why animations should not work/do not work in Leopard Mail?

I have used OS X Feedback on several occasions and have never heard back from Apple regarding any of my queries nor have I seen any software changes come about because of any of my queries.
Apple doesn't respond to Feedback; they get way too many to have any time for that, but their engineering staff do keep track of what comes in and evaluates suggested changes all the time. I've made a good number of suggestions and I do get replies, but that's only because I have the email addresses for those who make the decisions, and I can't give those out.
Just because you haven't seen changes doesn't mean they didn't consider your suggestions or that they aren't planning on incorporating a feature that you and others have suggested in the future. After all, the next version of OS X, Snow Leopard, isn't due until next year, and they're working on things for beyond that even now. Nothing has been finalized, so everything is open to more change after Snow Leopard.

Why don't my alerts work?

I have the data alerts set on my account but I am not being alerted at the appropriate time. I am being alerted when I am past my data limit. Why are you promoting a service that does not work? I do not want to keep paying overage charges. Then I can't even file a complaint....I am so frustrated with Verizon right now. It is never easy to get answers. I need to know why my alerts are not working.

You can set alerts at verizonwireless.com, and you can set alerts on most smartphones as well, and those can be highly customized as to when you are alerted.
Go to settings, data usage, and there are/should be options to view, limit, and alert you as to your mobile data usage on the phone itself.

Why don't new apps appear on the first home screen page?

I like keeping a very minimal home screen (six folders and that's it). Every time I download new apps, they appear on a second page even though there are plenty of slots left on the first page. I then have to move them back - one by one - to the first page again and sort them into folders. Is this a bug, or is there some reason why it should work like this?

From my observation, what you're seeing is the way it works. I have a few empty slots on my first page. When I download apps, they don't go there. They go to whatever page after that has space. I suspect Philly_Phan is probably on to something. I know I only keep the things I use a lot on my first page. I wouldn't want it getting clutter with every free game I downloaded to try out.
You could submit a suggestion to Apple requesting that it work differently:

Best of luck.

Why Doesn't this App Work?

I make 10-15 stops in downtown Houston occasionally. The Houston Metro provides an app named "Houston TRIP". It's for the iPhone. I downloaded it for my iPod 5, but iTunes give an error message something like "Cannot install this app because it is not for this iPod." This app is one of several reasons I bought the iPod. I was assured the iPod would accept and run all iphone apps except those that used the telephone function. This app makes no phone calls -- it simply connects you with the Metro website and allows you to find bus routes from point to point. Since I can't load it, it may do other Metro things but finding bus routes is it's primary purpose.
Anybody know why it's incompatible with a current iPod, yet works on an iPhone? Also, there many iPhone apps that don't use the phone function yet won't work on the iPad?

The requirements for that app are as follows. Note it requires a cellular connection and the iPod does not have one.
Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad Wi-Fi + 4G, iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular (4th generation) and iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular. Requires iOS 3.1 or later

Why don't dashboard widgets work in 10.7?

I've been googling around, looking for an answer to this question--I've downloaded several useful widgets only to discover OSX 10.7.5 Lion won't open them. I get the error message: "You can't install *.wdgt because it is not a valid widget." After some searching, I have managed to find widgets that do work, but they never have the extension .wdgt, and when I look in my library folder, the active widgets I'm able to find have a .plist extension. Are there any good sites for finding working widgets? Are there ways to convert older widgets?
Most of the ones on the Apple Dashboard widget page say they'll work on any version after 10.4 or so, and I'm assuming, as are many, that Apple's just abandoning the Dashboard interface. The weird thing is that there are still two different ways to access a "Dashboard" or people seem to think that they're both called a "Dashboard"--the first Dashboard that I get with a three-finger sideswipe--and then the other one accessed by F4 that more resembles the iPad OS.
Basically, I don't care how I access widgets or apps or gadgets or whatever, via a Dashboard or dock, but it's pretty crazy that there's less functionality for a MacBook Pro than for your most basic smartphone.

.plist folders are not widget files. They're just preference files for those widgets. All widgets have a .wdgt extension and will reside in the Library/Widgets folder either at the root of the hard drive or in your Home directory.
As to the problem, it's possible that the widgets you're trying to use may just be too old and not have been updated for the later versions of Dashboard. If you'll post the names of the widgets you wish to use, someone may be able to check them and see if it's indeed such a problem.
Finally, there is only one Dashboard, though there may be more than one command or activity that will open it. A three-finger sideswipe, I believe, changes Spaces and does not activate Dashboard per se, though Dashboard may open in a space.
Regards.

Why don't my fonts work?

I've got zillions of fonts that work in InDesign and Illustrator but lots of them don't work in Photoshop. Why not? Using Font Agent Pro and CS4

I'm an idiot. I forgot to activate the fonts in FontAgent Pro before trying to use them in Photoshop. Thanks anyhow.

Why don't some apps sync with comment not authorize for computer and go authorize computer at store. The computer is an authorized computer. What to do?

I sync my iPad to computer and get the following message: "some of the purchased items on the iPad, including 'Angry Birds', could not be transfeered to your itues library because you are not authorized for them on this computer. to authorize this computer for items purcchase from the iTunes store, choose Store>Authorize This computer.
I don't understand because the computer is one of my authorized computers. What am I missing?

I have had this problem and after some time noticed that the apps that i couldnt put on my new computer were downloaded with a different ITUNES ID.
e.g.
I downloaded about 50 under [email protected] which was my account.
There were about 10 under [email protected] which is my daughters account (she used a $20.00 itunes card)
And a couple were from my sisters account [email protected]
i logged into those accounts and authorised the computer for each ID and it worked fine... You just have to remember what ID's downloaded each item. (app, song, etc) Log into each ID, authorise, then Sync....
Hope this helps..
Troy
