MacBook Pro :: Opening App That Is Not Apple
Dec 2, 2014
Trying to open Jacquie Lawson 2014 Advent Calendar. Followed Apple's instruction for opening non-Apple App Store app. They don't work, even though the app is in Finder. 2013 calendar was installed and opened on this machine last year with no problems.
Info:
MacBook Pro, iOS 8.1.1, New Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendar.

Recently a week ago updated my system from 10.8.3 to the Latest Maverick 10.9.4. I have a Mac-mini bought in 2013, When Maverick was loaded Apple Store showed up and I was able to download updates. Now, the store only shows the Icon A with the circle, pencil and brush and gray. Nothing else shows up. What to do?
Info:
Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

I'm sure this has already been posted, and I apologize if it has, but a couple of searches turned up empty.Anyway, I just discovered this today and I'm praying this is a bug and not a "feature". When you click the pause/play button on the Apple Remote, iTunes opens and begins playing. The same thing happens when you hit the pause/play button on the media bar. I thought I was becoming dyslexic because iTunes kept playing randomly. It was only until today when I discovered this bug while playing a file in VLC. Apparently it happens with pretty much any app.

So i know this is gonna be a challenging one...
After a day of installing and trying/deleting new apps as well as trying terminal tricks from UsingMac.com like these and these, i went up to my apple menu in the menu bar for the first time since i started fiddling around, and it looks like what you see below in the attachment. I have absolutely no idea what made it happen; I'm just wondering if there is a way to reset the menu alone. because instead of having just what it says in the "system services" section in the menu, it has all that other stuff as well (Calculator, FruitMenu, etc.).
P.S.: Fruitmenu isn't even installed. i uninstalled it after i found out it was only a demo.
So basically:
1) how do i restore the main menu in the menu bar back to its original settings?
and 2) I need to do it in a way that wont screw up the rest of my computer or settings

I recently added a NAS with four main partitions (recognizes them as drives). Now, when ever I start up my mac, finder opens four panes, one for each drive. Is there any way I can prevent finder from automatically opening?

I have a 2007 MBP (Santa Rosa) that won't open unless I take a flat tool in between the screen bezel and the top case and manually remove the latches from their slots.
When the little button on the front of the computer is pressed, nothing happens. I doesn't even 'push in', it just resists, no matter how hard I press.
Has anyone else encountered this problem or have any ideas how to fix this? Thanks a lot!

I would like to use an old Macbook as my media center in the living room, but it will only really fit on a narrow shelf; opening it and messing with the monitor settings each time would be very inconvenient.

I have a Mac Book Pro that was purchased in March 2012. Yesterday the Mail App refused to open (it shows the "working" symbol, but never opens). I did a software update but no luck. When I try to check my settings through Mail prefs I get the wheel of death.

So for no apparent reason my screen all of a sudden turned to this...
It should be the ribbon cable that connects to the screen since the screenshots turn out fine and if I let the mbp cool all the way down and opening it again it's fine for a while....
Can anyone tell me what I should do?? New MBP or get it fixed for who knows how much...

almost every time or at least 80% of the times i open my MACBOOK i hear a sound (kinda like a cracking noise) when opening it more than 90* angle, it seems it comes from the hinge on the left side, ohh and when it does that sound you can feel it, it is like if it gets stuck or something. Sorry i hope you guys can understand cause my english is really bad Is that NORMAL!?? it doesnt really bother me, but if that can give me a problem ahead on the road i better try to fix it now... OHH and theres no APPLESTORE near, i dont even know if it exist a applestore in PR , so i cant go there and have them check it...

I'm somewhat new to the Mac world and have found my first huge issue that I don't know how to fix. I was recently changing a theme using Magnifique and since doing it have lost access to everything. Nothing will open, if I try I get an "app name quit unexpectedly" dialog box. I have no menu bar, no HDD icons, I am unable to open a finder window or any other applications. I'm completely lost as to what I'm supposed to do.

When I opened my mac book pro's screen up, I noticed that when i let go of it it physically wiggled. It eventually slowed down and stop but now, even as I am typing it is slightly wiggling back and forth. Does this always happen or did something go wrong in the hinge?

I know this may seem silly to ask, but I have read that the hinge is a bit vulnerable on the macbook pro, & mine will mostly be at home on a desk, but I may occasionally take it out. When I have it at home & shut down for the day, will closing the lid, & then opening it the next day weaken it? could I just leave the lid open when the laptop is shut down at the desk?
