• Mid-stop import iPhoto because "there was a problem downloading, one of the photos?

  I tried to import the 7000 + pictures on my phone to my macbook like 10 times but every time it stopped at halfway and stated that it cannot be completed because there was a problem of downloading an image. I then tried to import the first two hundred or two and he did the same thing. Then I imported the fifty first, and they've been through. So I continued past by fifty until I couldn't and tried to figure out if there was a photo or an image type (forfeiture slow-mo, time, etc.) who could not go to iPhoto (I don't know if it's one thing, I didn't know what it could be). So there was a slow mo video in a bunch and I deleted it but it still does not work and so now I do not know what that prevents my phone to import. If anyone knows, please help! I have more storage on my phone and desperately need these photos out (but remove them is not an option, I already went through and deleted screenshots and other things I don't want / need). Please please please give suggestions!

  Hi, I do not know where to turn: the person who takes care of all the stuff of count is out of town, this friend started Firefox and there was a message about an update, I thoght I again just click on install and wait to re start Firefox. But what I remember is this another open window and asked me to choose 'something' (an icon or banner or?), I thought I have to click on an element (I guess I should read all clearly). Firefox updated to 3.6.4, but it also inserted some sort of what might be called a banner? But it does cover only partially the half right of my 3 toolbars at the top of the Firefox window. It cannot be used to something else because it's just a mess of colors and unknowns, except for what looks like a 'top' and what I recognize as an icon of Firefox (but only partially visible)! Now, what he does, it's partly hide this part all the toolbars and they are difficult to read and to do to turn this 'thing' impossible to understand, if I keep to? I can't find in any case to remove it or use it? But since the icon of Firefox is about it, I think you need to know what it is and how trash. I'm sorry for this accident caused my my inattention, but I'm not much of a computer person - HELP! Thanks for any help. Judi

  My MacBook froze during the installation of the update at El Capitan and now I am unable to connect to any except the screen of the guest user. There was a message of panic, and somewhere in there, he said no set of OS. I tried to start without danger, it does not work either.

  This general situation may be similar to what is mentioned in this sequel to thread of the CSA

  and if the remedy is to use instructions; detailed and I hope they are correct...

  Re: Restart fails after installation of El Capitan help!

  Or you can try and see on the repair of the system and then if your disk utility can

  See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to

  the Mac system, to see if this solves the problem. There may be more than one cause.

  You could try and boot into OS X Recovery, utilities out there, and other options are available.

  • OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

  This example uses a special partition on the hard drive of recovery which is not in the

  same disc that the Mac OS X section; However if your hard drive is missing, these other

  items may also be at risk. You must have and maintain backups of your duplicate content

  on the external storage drives closed; In addition, a Time Machine backup helps to restore.

  Beware of the fact these tools can also delete or reformat your content; wiping.}

  Don't know what to say; you could see visiting an Apple store with genius if

  There is an official store. Usually for best time planning you would contact them for an appointment.

  • Make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store Genius Bar
  • Find an Apple authorized service provider
  • https://locate.Apple.com/country - Apple - find places - selector of country (if outside the U.S.)

  Or if there is no official retail Apple Store with genius, the following suggestion would be to contact

  a service provider authorized Apple, an independent specialist who is qualified in the repair of Apple.

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!

• There was a message to keep the machine to install Microsoft Updates when I tried to shut it down

  Original title: many updates

  For almost all stop downs recently, there was a message to keep the machine as a download is being installed. Ms?

  Hello
   
  1. what operating system is installed on your machine?
  2. were you able to install the updates successfully?
  
  Microsoft updates are essential for the proper functioning of your system and keep your computer up to date. If a message appears during stops or startups, it's quite normal that it installs the updates recommended by Microsoft.

  Look for updates in the update history.

  a. open Windows Update by clicking on the button start. In the search box, type Update, and then in the list of results, click Windows Update.

  (b) in the left pane, click view update history.

  c. to display more information about an update, double-click it.

• I think Firefox is getting worse, because there are many Web sites that does not work properly with it, while my other browser Google Chrome can.

  There are many sites, but I will say only 1 site because I have very bad memory, so here's the problem, Web site Furaffinity.net, search for his website may not work properly with Firefox, its advanced research, help and toggle the button description can be click but nothing happened after a click. However, my other browsers, Google Chrome and INTERNET EXPLORER horrible can work properly. I tried to fix it by resetting Firefox but it doesn't work.

• Re-uploaded because there was no access to the web, and it is not yet. Opens in private browsing, no Firefox tab is visible, so I can't do anything.

  I don't remember having chosen Private Browsing until I deleted Firefox on my computer. After you download from the Web site, the same screen appears. It does not resemble the Web site displays. I have a screenshot, but don't see a way to fix it here.
  The top line is blue background of Windows and said "Start Mozilla Firefox - Mozilla Firefox (private browsing) Page".
  Lower than that of the context Tan the usual File, Edit, View etc.
  Lower than a tab with: the image of Fox and the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page.
  Thaat below: arrow, arrow, box "go to a Web site", and arrears on the right a blue g and a tab drop down to search engines, down for downloads and the symbol of the House.
  bottom line usual Google that shows that my most used bookmarks
  The large area below that contains the symbol of the Fox in the Center above the search box (which does not). In the upper right corner is "mozilla" gray type.
  Crossing the lower part is a clear grey banner with "downloads, Favorites, history, modules, sync and Settings" with their symbols above.
  I had to remove PC Matic Supershield to get the download to work at all, and now after hours of tests, I am right where I started.

  Make sure that you are not Firefox running in (permanent) private browsing mode.

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/private+browsing
  • Tools > Options > privacy > Firefox will be: "use the custom settings for history".
  • Uncheck the box: [] "always use the navigation mode private.

  You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the file prefs.js and possible prefs - numbered # .js and a user.js file possible to restore the values all default prefs.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences

  Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

  One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

  Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  Hi krisket,

  You can examine the files in your profile folder (subfolder: extensions) and find when they were created. In the case of an addon that was not installed by yourself, it can be installed at the same time that you were not on pc.
  
  Details on how to find the profile folder in the present statutes:

  • Profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
  • Firefox profile folder

  Be careful though, that in many cases, you can see a date or time that the file was changed.
  
  I hope that helped you! Please report back!
