Problem I had after having erased everything on my MacBook
I recently got a new PC, so I decided to give my old MacBook mid 2010 to my friend who doesn't have a computer. I wanted to get rid of all my files on it first, so I rebooted and pressed command and R together to access the start menu. I clicked on the disk utility and erased everything on my computer. I brought back to his house and tried to go through the usual steps of installation of Mac OS X, I received a notification that says "cannot find installation for this machine information. Please contact Apple care. "What this means and what should we do?
I think when you did what you did you accidentally got rif in the history of mac os x. so I contact apple and have them checked

Error 46 on the installation, after having tried everything
I was recently informed that CC requires an update. Whenever I tried it the installer came back saying error 46 that a file or folder cannot be found (see previous issues for other users). I tried the installation with web browsers turned off and finally uninstalled, I tried with the firewall disabled. Reluctantly, because apps were working independently of Office CC, I uninstalled all applications and the CC in order to maintain updates and CC on re - install the feature. I ran CC Cleaner. I have disabled firewall, I uninstalled the browsers again.
I still get error 46.
It is purely a matter of CC, as applications worked perfectly fine before the installation, and, unfortunately, after recommendations from the forum, I am now without products that I pay my subscription for.
Does anyone have an idea what needs to be done, before you reinstall Windows 10?
Everything worked fine until last week.
Assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated, especially Adobe itself.
Hi Nancy,.
Thanks for your time.
Unfortunately, this has not helped solve the problem. None of the described errors related to error 46.
I've done everything now, including uninstalling Windows updates and uninstall all Adobe products and remove the left on files and folders, even after running CC clean power off of security and software. Nothing has released the installer from error 46. I now reset Windows 10, which allowed the installation of CC and am currently reinstalling other software that has been lost in the process.
Needless to say, I'm not quite happy!
Thanks again for your time.

URL indicating as "visited" in the results of the research after having erased from history?
Web sites are appearing always as "visited" (purple rather than blue) links in my Google search, even after that I deleted the browser history. Why is this? I have Firefox 4.0 for Mac.
This may be due to a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

I have a netbook with a partition that has win7 starter installed. I unfortunately poorly installed windows 7 Professional and now have nothing available which was originally on the computer. Everything was wiped clean including my ability to use / access my wireless, ethernet controller, pci, etc.. I tried repeatedly to recover the partition back to factory settings, but it won't give me the option to select the partition. I guess that's because they are all two Windows 7. Can you help me get it back to windows 7 edition starter of the partition so I can restore all the factory settings and programs. I haven't lost any information or files that I loaded win7professtional as soon as I turned it on. I have restore points, images, etc.
When I installed Win 7 Professional, not old Info windows.old file but I don't know how to access that is.
Help, please? Thank you
The Windows.old folder has two objectives:
(1) can be used to uninstall Windows 7 and return your PC to the previous version of Windows.
(2) contains a backup of all your files of data, documents, photos, Etc. from the previous version of Windows.If you don't need either of these two options can delete the Windows.old folder. In your case if you can access the "recovery Partition" to restore the windows and then back the Windows.old folder before you begin.
Note: Option to change Windows Explorer to see the Windows.old folder:
Click on start and enter in the box "Search": "hidden" (without the quotes)
Click on the "Show the hidden files and folders" option at the top of the list.
In the "Folder Options" window
Click the 'view' if it is not already selected.
In the list "Advanced settings" locate "hidden files and folders".
Now click 'show files and folders '.
Then, disable the following:
"Hide empty drives in the computer folder.
"Hide the extensions of the file types that you want to know."
"Hide protected operating system files"Click on the "Apply" button and the OK"" button.

I'm trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer problems. Now get the error 'you cannot install an Adobe product at a time. Please fill the other installation before installing... "There is no other Adobe product install. I have used the cleaning tool Adobe several times and uninstalled other Adobe products, but none worked. I have uninstalled/reinstalled this version of Dreamweaver CD several times when changing computers and after you had computer problems. A google search of the proposed problem that there is an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues. Help, please.
A google search of the proposed problem that there is an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.
Absolutely not. You're misinterpreting things. Activation does not happen when you simply run the installer, although later. This means that what he says - there is another 'install' pending / assets on your system, which means somewhere, there is a process (invisible) always blocking things. Whatever it is, since you have not provided any real technical info, we can not advise specifically. If you are using Windows, you can check your task manager and to terminate any process setup.exe and msiexec.exe more potentially will need to manually fix / remove some registry keys. What beyond this, you will be much more accurate.

Did a backup using DVD + R double layer, and after having ejected the last media due to clerical error, I can no longer continue the backup due to the error: insert a disc - it seems that my hardware is no longer detect dual layer blank media. Works great on regular blank media 4.7 GB.
Hi sal69,
This problem is caused by physical limitations in DL (Double Layer) media. These limitations prevent any real use multisession. When the media is ejected, the disc session may be closed for DVD-ROM compatibility. On these discs, DVD-ROM compatibility is achieved only when the disc is complete. When the disc is finished, it is closed forever. The physical characteristics of the media require two layers will be burned so that the disc can be played in a DVD player. The two layers can be burned only by closing the disc. As soon as the disc is closed, no additional data can be added to him.
You can follow the steps mentioned in the link below
You may be unable to save more data on a DVD-R DL disc or a DVD + R DL disc after it is ejected into Windows Vista

Thank you
Harmony
I really appreciate your response, however, I was able to solve it with the system restore and reinstallation of several windows updates.
It turned out that a third-party software was the culprit. Once I made this discovery, I reinstalled the software uninstalled, and carried out the system restore and updates.
Thanks again!

I use and iPad 2 and just put Air updated to iOS 10 a few moments ago. Two problems:

It's quite frustrating and if anyone can help me on my multiple problems that had to be great.
Thank you.
Hello, misbah.mk!
Thank you for joining the communities Support from Apple! It seems that you are having problems with your iPad Air. I know how important it is that the iPad that air works correctly for you at any time. First of all, read this article with the steps to restart your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch.
The next thing you might want to try going in settings of the iPhone and then Reset. Once there, tap reset all settings. This will reset the settings of the iPhone, but does not erase personal information such as pictures, music or contacts. However, it will remove a connection Wi - Fi and VPN settings, so do not forget, you have these settings and passwords to ready for the start of the iPad to the top.
If this does not work, it would be a good idea to make sure that there is not a problem of software as the cause of this for you.
