Why only 53.25 MG downloaded before it freezes?

Hi,
I have tried downloading ML on all of my compatible Macs. The same thing happens every time.
I get as far as 53.25 MB downloaded (the same on all machines) and then the download freezes and gives me rediculous estimated download times like 323 days and 46 minutes.
If I quit the Apps Store and try again, I either get "Waiting" for an eternity or "An error occurred."
Having paid for ML 30 hours or so ago, I'm getting somewhat frustrated.
Has anyone out there got any suggestions?
Thanks.
Simon

kashopper,
You should definitely be able to get messages from iPhones! Some customers have what is called "iMessage" set up on their iPhone and they can't send those to you but you can absolutely get regular MMS from them. Is your mobile data turned on when this happens? http://vz.to/15J8n9Z If you go into your messaging app and then the settings, is "auto retrieve" turned on?

HT201412 My Fourth Gen iPod Touch can only last about ten minutes before it freezes, shuts down and restarts. I have no clue what's happening; what do I do?

I have no clue what's happening. It just started yesterday and I'm worried about it. Also, whenever I try to go into my email, go onto the camera/photos app or select my cloud option in general settings, I can't.

I have just re-installed CS6 Master and it would only doewnload 1gb of the 3gb of updates before it refused to download the remaing 2.2gb because it couldn't update the Application Manager. WHY? It was updating okay before I re-installed it.

Further, it sends you top the Analyser which is no longer supported and it sends you to a page for CS6 which refers you back to it at the bottom. THere was no reference to Application Manager in the log file, only Extension, Restart and Font managers.

Eventually found the patch on Google Search. Its in CC and includes the CS versions.ApplicationManager8.0_all.exe

This is not a technical question, and discussions of Apple's policies are not appropriate here. If you have some sort of problem with your own iTunes Store account, by all means let us know and we may be able to help you, but otherwise this question is not one we can discuss in these forums.

It appears in the download section of my itunes.
I downloaded a season of Iron Man Anime and all of the episodes except episode 1 was downloaded. I looked at the error and it says "error = -50" and when I try to resume downloading, it continues to tell me that there is a download error and it wont resume.
It also says to check my network connection, but I'm connected. So....I'm not sure what to do...this kind of ticks me off.

Only one track is downloaded per album on itunes on my iphone 5. Every time I download a new track it deletes the previously downloaded track on that album. Why is this happening and how can I switch it off?

Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin. Sometimes it's necessary to uninstall then reinstall that plugin.
Uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
Now launch Safari and try a video.
If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
You may also need to delete the cache associated with Safari .
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste: ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Click Go the move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video.

Why am I only getting 0.24mbs download speed & 0.47mbs upload speed on my ipad over my wifi when my Microsoft laptop is working massively faster?
I have a EE BrightBox wifi router and other devices in the house are working perfectly only problem I have is with my Apple products.

Hi,
Don't have a Mac, using new ipad, iPhone 5&4s both with ios7 but it's soo slow, Microsoft laptop is working fine over wifi so it has to be Apple devices that have the problem. Have tried all of the suggested fixes on forums but still no joy.

Why after I transform files from my pc to Ipad2, I can't play the games on ipad which downloaded before?

after I transform files from my pc to Ipad2, I can't play the games on ipad which downloaded before. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
I was trying to open the games in ipad, but, it just shine, can't open. And the ebooks same.
Thanks for your help.

That is disgraceful. I would have thought that if it is password protected then you should be able to access your own files, if they are still recoverable in any way that you wish. The cost of professional data recovery is prohibitive and although I have had near disasters in the past, all due to external drives, I have always been able to recover deleted files, even from discs that had had a quick erase.
Thanks for your input.

Adobe: Why Not Update The Photoshop Download Package to 13.0.1?

Just for grins I downloaded the Adobe CS6 software again (all 1.17 GB of it) and compared it to what I downloaded before. It's the same - 13.0.0.
Why the heck doesn't Adobe update their download package to the latest revision?
Who in their right mind at Adobe thinks it's a good idea to have customers download and try software with egregious bugs like the Text Layer Corruption problem or the Layer Bounds Slowdown problem or any of the other bunches and bunches of bugs fixed in 13.0.1?
Anticipating the answer "the prospective customers will immediately get the update notices and go through that process, and thus will be testing 13.0.1"...
Let me get this straight - you want potential customers to go through a 1+ GB download process, try to start using the software and immediately then have to download tens or hundreds of megabytes more software? What, to show off your wonderful, reliable update process? Are you nuts?
Adobe, you seem to be mired in processes that don't work. Don't you think it's time maybe to re-evaluate them?
-Noel

Noel,
You could certainly be correct. I always install from physical media, so I do not know all the in-and-outs of the download files. I also will manually update my Adobe programs, via the Adobe AutoUpdater, so do not pay close attention to when the downloadable, executable files are posted.
However, and especially on the Premiere Pro forums, I do see the timing of the release of updates, both for Adobe Updater, and then for the stand-alones. As the announcements of such releases usually come from Adobe Staff, I have asked them questions on why certain timing differences exist, and the comments above are predicated on their responses.
I have never asked about updating the trials, or downloadable program packages, as those have never affected me before. I can only speculate that it takes a few more days to get the full package ready, than to do even the downloadable executable update, but could well be incorrect.
Also, I can see the potential for lag between an update, and getting that newer version onto physical media - also, I would imagine that Adobe and its resellers would want to clear the shelves of the earlier version (by this, I mean updated "versions," and not upgraded versions.). If I buy my media from Adobe, I anticipate that I might, or might not get the latest, update, so the first thing that I do, unpon installation, is to use Adobe AutoUpdater, to check - usually through Bridge for my suites.

Why can't McAfee Antivirus download onto OS X Yosemite, Mac Air?

Hello, I am trying to download McAfee Antivirus on my 2008 Mac Air with OS X Yosemite and am repeatedly told antivirus is already installed. McAfee Tech could not find any apps indicating such. Any ideas appreciated. I got a message from a medical institution saying my Mac had a virus so am of course concerned...Thank you!

Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, afford any protection against such attacks.
The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
Software from an untrustworthy source
☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
Unexpected events
☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

Why dont i ever see downloaded pdfs in the "documents section" in adobe reader on my ipad?

Why dont i ever see downloaded pdfs in the "documents section" in adobe reader on my ipad? They only stay in the Acrobat.com section and when I try to move them the "documents" partion is not listed as an option. Only the folders i have within acrobat.com are listed

The pdfs have been uploaded to Acrobat .com (from my computer) I open the Adobe reader on my ipad and see them in the acrobat partition of the reader. I tap on them and they open. To test whether they were truly downloaded ,I turn off wifi and they still open. I consider this "downloaded" BUT... they stay in the acrobat.com partition of the reader. Nothing ever goes or lives in the "Documents" partition..nor can I move anything there.....Why not? What is the"documents" partition there for if nothing lives or can be moved there?

How to download an app *not* from icloud that has been downloaded before with a different account?

Greetings,
If an app has been downloaded before even with an account other than the one I am signed in with, it shows the cloud icon and asks me for the password of the other account.
How do I download it with the account I am currently logged in with?
Thanks

"I'm using the one on the computer, not the device."
Well I said this is happening on an iPad. Reread what is happening from the beginning of the thread, and tell me if the instructions are correct for the iPad. Are you prompted for passwords from a different account that previously downloaded the app on the iPad?
Again
The app is Google Search.
It is free.
(I am always promoted for passwords for both free and paid apps.)
The device is an iPad. That is why I posted this is the iPad discussion.
I am logged in with my account, let's call it A. It shows account A next to Apple ID in the lower left of the Featured page.
When I search for Google Search, and click the cloud download icon next next to the Google Search app, it prompts me for the password to a different account. Let's call it B.
In the app store it shows a cloud download icon next to every app that has ever been downloaded on this iPad, regardless of whether it is account A, B, C, etc
Have you tried logging in with a different account to test this?

Why only 53.25 MG downloaded before it freezes?
