  • Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

    What kind of noise?
    The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

  • My iPod touch's menu button literally sank in and now I am unable to use my iPod totally because I cannot press the menu button at all. Can Apple rectify this if I send it to a service center?

    You should definetely contact an apple store! If your warranty is valid they will probably fix it for free. Until then go to settings, general, accessibility, assisive touch and turn it on. A circle will appear that does exactly what your home button does.

  • My probably 10 year old MaycBook died. It won't start. When I press the power button, it gets power, but it only lights up and a scratching noise starts like something is spinning. A file folder with a question mark periodically flashes... Help!!!

    You don't have a Macbook if you are running OS 9 and it's 10 years old. The first Macbook is an Intel Mac that came out in 2006 running 10.4.x. You most likely have a Powerbook. Try posting in the Powerbook forum.

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

    As I wrote you need to look at the crash reports to see where Photoshop is crashing Look in your Windows Action center's Reliability History for your Photoshop CS6 critical events then click on them to see where the problem are.

    Working in Live View  When I press the zoom button to focus I get a white screen with a 5x or a 10x written.  I don't get the zoom picture.  It just started doing this today and I've been using it for years.  Any help?  Thank you.  OH   I have a 450D  (rebel xsi)
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Which camera model?
    Also, what are your exposure settings? Canon DSLRs do exposure simulation in live-view. So if the settings would result in an over-exposure you might be cropping in to view an all white area.

    i have just downloaded the latest update for Pages on my iPad and now it can no longer open up documents in iCloud and then just shuts down. What The.

    Before the reset quit Pages like this:
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

  • What's wrong with my trackpad? It was working fine, then I installed Lion 10.8.1 and now the mac mini won't see it, when I press the on button, a light comes on after a brief pause, stays on for a second or so, and then goes off, still no trackpad..

    Ok, so if you haven't worked it out, this is my first post. My problem is all in the title, but once more won't hurt..
    I have a bluetooth trackpad which has been attached to my mac mini for a few months now, with only the occasional connection lost, connection found saga that everyone seems to go through. Earlier today, I used the trackpad to upgrade to OSX 10.8.1 nd when the computer rebooted, no trackpad could be found. I've put fresh batteries in, I've tried rebooting the mac mini, I've checked sys preferences and am currently using an old usb keyboard which is v flimsy so forgive any typos please.
    The light comes on about a second after the on button is pressed, (whether the button is held down or not) and then goes off after a second, still no trackpad is found..
    Why?!!!!

    No, not paired to anything else, fresh out the box connected to the mac mini I bought at the same time, never been paired with anything else.
    I think it's a hardware issue. As I don't seem to be able to get it to turn off.

  • Grey bar shows up when booting and then iMac shuts down

    Hello,
    when I turned on my iMac (early 2010, Mountain Lion) today, strangely, after the apple logo, it showed up a login page (It never showed up before). I choosed my user and password and it came back to the same screen.
    Then I rebooted my Mac a grey bar showed up in the apple logo screen and it took about 30 min for it to reach the end. When the bar was at the end the mac shut off.
    I can go to my windows partition without any problem but i noticed the mac hd is now named "EPI Boot".
    I tried to install a fresh copy of the osx but the hard drive is locked.
    In the disk utility menu, the Macintosh HD is greyed out and if I try to mount it it gives an error saying I need to repair it first, but if I try to repair it, another error shows up saying the disk utility cannot repair this disk.
    I tried to boot up pressing CMD-V to see what is going on and this shows up:
    It does this 3 times and then says it cannot repair the disk and shuts off.
    Thank you for your time.

    Ok, I booted the mac using Disk Warrior, the MacHD wasn't showing up but after waiting a while it showed up. I repaired the disk using the software and now it's working

  • What happens when my iPod have blue screen and then it shuts down?

    So today, i was watching YouTube, then suddenly the iPod turns into blue screen for one second and just shuts down, then I turned it on, it still worked, I was a little afraid that my iPod 5 broke, so I searched it up on google, then it comes out that the same problem happened with iPhones that also have iOS 7.1 , so I'm just wondering if anyone that also have iOS7.1 and iPod 5 have that problem, thank you.

    Software glitches happen all the time
    If it ocurs again
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
