Finder constantly need stimulus, freezes (Macbook pro running with the Mavericks)
I have a macbook pro running on 10.9.5 Mavericks. I got it for a few years? Pretty smooth sailing, touch wood, except for a few days every time I try to use the finder it freezes and the screen gets corrupted look (so; it's like a picture of me trying to access my applications folder).
If I use force quit to make finder restart, it will work for the first couple items, I try to find, and then do it again. I tried to delete the plist finder and reboot, but no dice. Is there something I can do?
Wow, never heard of that before. Beautiful new computer, too.
Try to connect as a guest (or any other user account) and see if the same thing happens.
- If you do not have an active guest account (you would see on your login screen), open system preferences and go to users and groups.
- Click on the padlock at the bottom on the left and enter your admin password.
- Under the section other users to the left of the window, click Guest user.
- Check "Allow guests to connect to this computer."
- For ease of use, click Connection Options at the bottom and check "see the fast user switching menu under...". "The option is not serious.
Click on your username at the top, next to the Spotlight search, and select guest user. Find out if the Finder is doing the same thing... then you can log on to the guest user account and return to your current account.

I'm having a problem with Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.
I installed Windows 7 on my Bootcamp partition and until recently he worked well as well when I ran into VMWare Fusion.
When I boot on my Windows 7 on Bootcamp partition, everything is OK. But then when I run it in VMWare Fusion it says that my copy is not genuine.
I just went through the automated phone system and entered the codes, and so now while I'm running Fusion Windows is genuine.
I fear, however, that when I return to the execution of the partition, Bootcamp, Windows will say that is not true, once again.
Only, I have a copy of Windows 7 and can only run from the VMWare Fusion or Bootcamp partition at any time.
How can I fix it if Windows is more said that it is not authentic, when I switch from a training camp and VMWare Fusion?
I need to be able to run Windows while I'm on the side of Mac at the same time
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you used the same Windows Installer Bootcamp, VMWare Fusion product key, there is the question. You can only install and activate a 1 license of Windows 7. The second installation requires own license that you can buy on the Microsoft Store. Carey Frisch

MacBook Pro interfere with the speed of the internet throughout the House
Here's a good one!
Three weeks our internet has the House has been tinkering to fall and goes randomly 8meg 3meg. I called our provider and asked them to investigate on and this resulted in us switching to another line, test line, the conduct of the home tests and change the router - still the same. Today, the engineer came because he remembered a similar problem with another house with MacBook. He asked me to turn off the wifi on my macbook and as if by magic the wifi was working normally again, up to 8meg. Re-turn my Macbook wifi - everything down to 2-3meg. Tried about 10 times on our router and the same result every time.
So it seems that my Mac is something funky to the router.
Any ideas on how to fix - you should know that my technical knowledge is fundamental.

Cannot print

Printer reinstalled with no luck
Help, please. Thank you.
Hi jpjones2,
It worked before? If so, I suggest restarting the base station AirPort, Mac and the Photosmart. Then test it again. Ensure that the Photosmart works well autonomous - try printing a copy on the device.
Is only the failing printing and analysis very well? Or you are not able to install the device on your Mac at all?
Already check the Photosmart is connected to your network and has received an IP address?

Hello. I am new to lightroom and has the stationary version, LR6, on my Macbook Pro running Yosemite. I loaded all my photos manually in LR and ask them to synchronize folders on my desktop. I then clicked on office and says sync, and he grew up 50 000 additional files which are the result of other programs 'elements '. So, I have about 50 records and then hundreds or thousands of photos random in the left panel of LR, who wear funny things and have (for example) a model of Christmas card photos, or a point, or a chart or a w black screen / written (a script?) green... .and they mean nothing to me without the context of the program no matter what either knows how to use them. How to remove or hide these system files? as they are miles long and makes it difficult to see the picture (by date) files that I intentionally imported? Thanks in advance. I hope that makes sense! Tracy
Hello Tracy,.
It is not a good option to have selected as a watch or Sync Desktop folder in file panel Office Lightroom.
Looks like you were other files such as old presets, filesystem in folders on your desktop.
The only option is to remove them manually or to recover a backup of backups of Lightroom Catalog.
Kind regards
Assani
