I have to wonder if one of the various utilities that 'Resets the Launch Services database' which is commonly used to correct contextual menus errors might help with your issue?

I just tried your problem in Maverick Mail, and I still have the option, along with 'Preview' to open the image with other software, including the most useful 'Other' option.

I don't understand your question. In all the years I've used TM, I have never once had it tell me how big the backup HDD had to be. At what stage and where, is TM telling you this? Unless this is the estimated size of a full backup info in TM-Preferences-Options, if that is the case then you...

Have you tried booting from the Restore Partition and running Disk Utility from there?

Open TM preferences->Options, now click on the plus button to add your HD. This only works if you are trying to back up your start-up HD, as Satcomer said you cannot backup "to" your start-up HD.

Why waste space in your stomach, just stick to a good single malt scotch.

On the Canadian Apple store the minimum (16GB) 5C phone is $599, I'd be hard pressed to call that inexpensive.

Download and run 'OS X 10.8.4' combo updater, this should put things back to right for you. Either way, it will not hurt or damage anything.

Follow the instructions on this web page to fix your HD without the need for the install disc.

Don't you just hate when a person makes a promise and then fails to keep it? Satcomer quote from an earlier post... " I offended and never will come back!!!!!!!!"

Either Carbon Copy or SuperDuper would do the job nicely.

You say "always", and you know this is true because?

Good answer (to an 8 year old post)

Actually the OP hasn't posted since 2003 (10 years ago), maybe they've since passed on.;)

if, as you say the iPad is already synced to another Mac, why not a Mac to Mac transfer using any one of the different transfer methods, ie: network or say firewire cable and Target disk mode?

Have you tried a re-install as suggested in posts #3 and 6? If not then try this... Run Pacifist, wait for the trial app to time out and you should see the main Pacifist window. Click on "Open URL" and copy-paste this url http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1422/en_US/Safari5.0.6Leopard.dmg...

I notice a lot of references to 'Unsanity updater'. You appear to be running 'Ape', are you also using any of Unsanity's Haxies? I ask because these apps are known to cause erratic behavior, maybe try removing Ape or at least disabling it for a trial run.
