I tried to restore my iMac with my MacBook pro CDs but it's seem it got restored but it say this cd is not supported on this iMac, What could I do to take out the disk?
Also, if you have Lion on the computer. You have a recovery partition on the drive. On startup hold down 'Control' to bring up your startup menu. Select "Recovery HD". That's how you get to it. Lion's recovery partition acts as the installation discs that came with all previous versions of OS X.

My Ipod is plugged in, but my computer says that is unable to sync, restore, or all of the above because there is a duplicate file name. Then when I un-plug my ipod it stays frozen on the connected screen. What do I do???
Are you getting that when connecting to Mac OS or a Windows OS, Kaitlin?

I have a Seagate Slim Portable 500 GB USB 3.0 external hard drive that worked great with my Macbook Pro 13" Retina but gets ejected and won't show files on any iMac. My Macbook Pro and the two different iMacs I tried it on were all using Mountain Lion, so the only difference was the iMac versus Macbook Pro.
I just tried this, no luck...
I connected a different USB cable, still the same problem. Tried both cables with the problematic hard drive on two different computers, still the same problem.
At this point I assume I'll probably need professional help in saving the files, thanks for the assistance. -
I'm experiencing a similar problem with an LG Flatron monitor which my MBP no longer recognizes. I've tried installing all the updates listed above but have not been succesful. Everytime I get a message saying that this software is not supported on my system. Can anyone tell me why I can't install the updates?
Hello Philly,
I believe that when you reset your ipod(command given from the computer, right?) touch WHILE the ipod was updating, It cleared the system in the middle of writing files, thus corrupting(equivalent of cutting of in the middle of a sentence) the basic running system.
I suggest you go to an apple store and ask for a technical diagonosis in person. they may offer to help if the problem is fixable. If your ipod is still under warrenty, i would guess it would be free/low cost.
~Remember, I am just giving an educated guess on limited information -
My iPhone says that my charger is not supported, but it's the charger that came with my phone. Is there any way I can solve this issue?
Try cleaning out the phone's port, of pocket fluff and such. Carefully. And check the mains adapter similarly, but less likely.

I have both a MacBook Pro and macair but the pro won't let me in I think it something to do with hard disc or permissions as it says system profiler in utilities , if anyone could help I'd be very grateful
Restart the MBP and immediately hold the option key down. Release the key when you see the Apple logo. The computer will boot and show you a screen with two hard drive icons.
Select Recovery and hit Return.
On the new screen, select Disk Utility and hit Return.
In DU do this:
In the list at the left, select the name of your hard drive. (Be sure to select the name that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
Click First Aid.
If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
Click Repair Disk.
When that is done, click Repair Permissions. Be patient!
When that is done, quit DU and restart in the usual way. -
im tryin to re install os x on my macbook pro i get a pop up saying this apple id has not yet been used with the app store what do i do to get over this hump
If you can log into the computer, go to the Mac App Store and purchase Mavericks under your AppleID. Even though its free, they still consider it a purchase.
If you are not able to log into your Mac you can try on a different Mac. Once you purchase it, you can stop the download if you want.
Once you do that then you should be able to reinstall via the Recovery HD -
I am trying to download music on to my 4th gen Ipod touch but it keeps saying that It is unable to download song/ could not download at this time. Can anyone tell me how to download my music?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer..)
Release the Buttons... -
I recently purchased a macbook pro and qualified for the free Mountain Lion update. Now that I've received the very long content code from Apple, where do I go to enter this information? Is there a link within apple.com? This is my first apple computer so I'm not a proficient user. Thank you

Sign into the App Store with your Apple ID. App Store should be in the Dock.

Hi, trying to watch Sky TV on laptop - installed Silverlight but error message says unable to watch Sky while in a private browser. Can I come out of this thru Firefox?
There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

When I try to download the 10.0 update, my computer says that this, "URL can not be downloaded."

Order a 10.6 disc from Apple online. They do not sell it in their retail stores.
Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Back up your computer first. After installing, run Software Update to update everything to the newest versions available.
Check your computer's system specifications but you may have the option for a free upgrade/update to OSX 10.9 Mavericks, though you may want to stick with 10.6 for a while. Higher systems usually run slower on older machines and I personally would stay with Snow Leopard until I was forced to change again. -

15" display
2 GB memory
120 GB hardYou can upgrade your OS to Snow Leopard 10.6.x.
You can call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a fee, a replacement set of system discs (if available), can be ordered. However, the discs will be for the original version of OS, that was pre-installed, when the Mac was manufactured.
