Mac works oddly, possible virus problem
Now, this might be a bit long, but I want to explain my situation: my Mac version is 10.6.8 and I have Windows Bootcamp that divides my 500 gbs equally between the two parties. I use only 20,99 gbs on the side of my Mac and I have only a few applications I've downloaded myself (Chrome, two games (OFF and Minecraft which has a few mods), the Unarchiver and Adobe programs such as Photoshop and Flash). However, I have more (I removed) Safari and Garage Band. The reason why I deleted the Safari is because it does not block the dangerous ads. It is an ad ' Web Cam S *' that I met on a fake Wikipedia who made fun of Youtubers (forget the name of it and never come back to it) which forced me close my Mac because it will turn off and an announcement on YouTube who wanted to use 5 mbs of my data (I stopped my Mac new cause he kept asking when I was denied several times). I can't remember anything for download, but I don't know how to work the virus. This return all happened in August 2015, but since December 2015, my Mac fan started running loudly when he wakes fashion 'sleep' with any of the applications that are running. My Mac also gets is more cool as it allows when it is in "standby". I don't know if it's advertising or there is something wrong with my Mac internally (son, dusty in bulk). Six years ago, but it still load the Web pages and applications as it allows before the ads. Thanks for this reading, I was not able to find an answer that has cured my problems. PS: I don't want to download apps 'useful '.
I understand how you feel when you say that you do not want to download useful applications. I'm guessing that is probably based on the experience gained. However, there is an application that we use here and is generally well regarded by members. Please download and run and publish the results as a response here.
It will not immediately solve your problems, but it will allow us to evaluate your machine and recommend a plan of action. The fact is, there are too many alternatives for us to guess what your problem, go inside your machine.

System Restore does not work completely. Virus problem?
When the System Restore dialog box asks me when I want to restore from I can not pass separating two to another. The instructions are to click on a date "BOLD", but most of the dates are "BOLD", (b) none of them are clickable outside today and (c) the back arrows for the previous month, while only clickable, do nothing.
I think I have a virus or somesuch and wants to do a restore. Maybe the virus of going to stop.

Viruses often attack the system restore because it's such a threat to them - which is certainly possible. Unfortunately, all my anti-virus, anti-malware and anti-spyware solutions are for Vista (which is the Forum, you are in). You must post this question in the appropriate forum where they have the information, procedures and links to help you.
One thing, if the system restore does not work in normal mode, it sometimes will run in Mode safe then start safe mode and try it.
In addition, if you use any Norton product, turn it off, then restart and try to restore again - Norton is known to cause problems with system restore.
Sometimes, the problem can be solved by turning the restoration of the system off and then back on. Unfortunately, a side effect of this is to lose all your restore points you want to restore this may not be such a good option to try (even if it can correct the underlying problem): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310405/en-us.
If none of the above works, please repost your question on the Forums of XP to: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsxp where the XP experts will be happy to help you.
Good luck!

My laptop was stolen. The CreativeSuite has been installed. I also have programs on my Mac work in the office. When I buy a new laptop, I have to install the programs on the third computer. Is this possible? What can I do?
Hello
You can install and activate the perpetual software (purchased) two computers of the same type (mac or pc), as long as you use it on one at a time.
For deactivation refer:- https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activate-deactivate-products.html
If you do not have access to your old computer because you have replaced a hard drive, upgraded your operating system to format your computer before you deactivate your software or your computer is dead, you can ask Adobe Support to help you disable from a machine, you cannot access. Have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, then contact us.
To load the software on another computer, download and install it as you did on the first computer. Then enter your serial number to activate it.

Yes, you can have installed creative cloud and on two computers, signed as long as you don't use it on one at a time. Download and install as you did on the first computer, sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the desktop app from clouds, then download the software.
You can download the installer for Creative Cloud from here:
Creative cloud help | Creative cloud desktop.After you install the creative Cloud desktop application, you will need to sign in with a login password and Adobe. Then you can install applications.

How can I get my 12 items Editor to open in El Capitan on mac? It signals a problem. As suggested by the Apple support, I've trashed previous preferences and tried to restart, but to no avail. They told me to return the trash preferences and contact adobe.
Adobe has not yet been able to offer suggestions of what-so-ever, aside from telling me that it is there no real person for this product customer support and that I should try this forum. I hope that, apart from the many people with the same problem, there may be even one person out there with a solution!
I bought the Publisher of 12 elements in March 2015 on the Apple App Store. Apple has confirmed that there is absolutely nothing wrong with my Mac. He has had problems since bought and installed on Yosemite, now the new O.S. El Capitan is installed, and 12 elements editor now refuses to open at all.
My opinion is that if Adobe and Apple do not provide professional support for the products they sell to us, then they should say at the outset that there is no support for these products. This is not the first time that I was sold an adobe product that doesn't have any product support, product durability or reliability of product.
If all goes well there's someone out there who can help me!
Thank you!

As you have the version of the App Store, you will need to re - install. Your download should always be available in the Mac App Store under "purchases".
Apple has had problems with security certificate expired affecting all applications downloaded from the Mac App Store. Here's a solution that worked. Give it a try by following each step:
I had the same problem on the Mavericks and your suggestion worked for me. FYI, I deleted the items, empty trash, disconnected from the App Store, restarted the computer, signed in to the App Store, then downloaded items. I use OS x 10.9.5 and 11 elements. Hope this helps!

Printer HP Officejet 7300 network series that allows to work flawlessly with El Capitan does not work after the upgrade to Sierra.
With macOS Sierra, when used as a network print service printer works fine however scan does not work. Programs like the Image Capture, HP Easy Scan etc does not see the printer. However, if the printer is directly connected to the Macbook Pro using the usb cable, a new printer is added to the list of printers (it shows print and scan functions while the printer network in the list shows only printing function) and the scanner works well with Image Capture, etc. If the usb cable is removed disconnects this printer in the list and there is no way to turn it on. I have the latest update for the printer installed from the App store. It looks like a driver issue, but I wonder if there is a work around for this problem...
Open Preview.app. Under file in the menu bar, you see import of 'name of your scanner?

Home page search is not working / not Possible to restore the previous Session
After the last update (version 29), the home page of default Firefox search bar has been completely non-functional. If I hit enter or press search, nothing happens. Another (possibly related) problem is that the button 'Restore previous Session' is never present. I can also restore the previous session by clicking on the option of history (it is always grayed out).
When you look to the top How to start safe mode, I discovered how to reset Firefox to its default value of the plant. I did it and Voila! Problem solved.

I have a Macbook pro (2011 model). It gets stuck on the start screen on to half way through commissioning. This happens whenever the mac turns on. The problem is solved when I reinstall Yosemite to boot to Recovery Mode disk utility. However, the next time you start, the startup process is blocked to halfway to new (on the screen with the toolbar and the status of apple). I want a more permanent solution to reinstall the operating system every time. Would appreciate someone's suggestions and thanks in advance.
Replace your hard drive.
You have a backup of trust? If not, buy a disc of exterrnal for that as well.
The progress bar from the left end at the beginning of the commissioning indicates that your drive has been so damaged, it could not be mounted. Five minutes of progress bar is shown as it does the equivalent of disk utility (ERD [Directory]). If you have reinstalled several times and the problem is not fixed, your drive is in solid form.
