    Received a message that my Garageband is damaged and I need to download it from the app store.  Never had an application to be damaged.  Is it current?  OSX 10.9.5 Garageband 10.0.2

    Is the exact error message ""GarageBand.app is damaged and cannot be opened. " Delete Name.app and download it again from the App Store. »"  ?

    The error message is caused by an expired certificate.  See: http://osxdaily.com/2015/11/12/fix-app-is-damaged-cant-be-opened-error-messages-en-mac-os-x /

    1. Restart the Mac, that alone may be sufficient to correct the problematic applications and remove the error message
    2. If a restart does not fix the app, delete the application (simply drag it to the trash and do not empty), then restart the Mac App Store and download the app again through the purchases tab or by searching for the app manually
    3. Reopen once affected applications, they should now work properly
  • How can I prevent the shutdown task scheduler engine, get the new display detected to work and avoid receiving the message "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and stop"? __

    My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1520, running Windows Vista Home Edition Premium and Internet Explorer 9.  My extra monitor is a Sharp Aquos LED HD - TV, the model LC-46LE700UN.  I've been using a VGA cable to me onnecter the laptop and TV.

    The laptop seems to operate normally when not connect to the TV.

    As soon as the VGA cable is connected to the laptop (without being connected to the TV), the following message appears:

    'Microsoft Windows - Task Scheduler engine has stopped working.  A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is found. »

    When initially, I connected the laptop to TV, "new display detected" was automatically acti EV.  Soon, it was activated is no longer automatically.  I was able to activate manually using Windows Mobility Center during automatic activation failed initially but now Windows Mobility Center no longer detects the new view.

    Using Fn + F8, I can view the image on the laptop or TV, but not both simultaneously.

    The message "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and stop" appears intermittently, but I can still make internet sites and show the content after the message.

    I have download software, myp2p.eu, a site for watching TV programs "streaming", including PPStream, Sopcast, Live, Stream Torrent Sina, a Swarm, TVAnts, UUSee, VGO and Veetle player and canceled downloads for PPL (who failed an integrity check), PPMate (corrupted) and (blocked) TVKoo.

    Norton Security quarantined the installer of UUSee, indicating that it was a high risk of program with many users.

    To a computer repair shop and using a different additional display flat screen, I could not duplicate the problems yesterday (4 October 2010), when the "new detected display" has been activated automatically, and I could see the photo or the other and both screens.

    I tried to restore the system to a date (on the list) before when the problems occurred first - failure of the restoration of the system.  I tried to use scandisk, but received no indication that he had performed and corrected all errors found after restarting Windows.  I looked at responses from forum, the display setting and the new display detected support literature.

    How can I avoid these problems?  Help!

  • Update NVIDIA &amp; received the message that current browser (FF) was corrupt &amp; gave me the opportunity to make the browser by default IE &amp; Google as search engine - what happens?

    Updating NVIDIA, I received a message that my browser (Firefox) was corrupt and that I had to do my default browser Internet Explorer with Google as a search engine. I had many major problems with software advertising, viruses etc since I updated FF 2 days. Firefox was hacked? I reported these problems and give all the details in the last days, you can find them if check you email from this account (Stephenwolf) or +. +++ @hotmail.com. Go now will contact again later today.

    public email Edition and robots to spammers. You should get an email when there are answers.

    I hope that your update was not one of those sites that run misleading ads on the search engines for packages of shit... but it sounds really like your Firefox is not clean yet. Here's my method to track down and clean the bad Add - ons and other hijackers. I know it seems long, but it's not so bad.

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Remember that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

    Success?

    Then we can work on the restoration of your normal settings.
