What is the Error?
If using Internet Recovery, do you have your WiFi set up as suggested?
Did you try using Ethernet cable?

Why can I not access my Airport Extreme with Bonjour from my MacBook Pro?

Just like the title says. I the Airport Extreme does not show up under Bonjour in Safari. I can access it from the network but not Bonjour. Weird.

Bonjour, as you may already know, is Apple's implementation of zero-configuration networking.
It takes three things to work:
Host Addressing - It requires network devices that support Link-Local addressing, i.e., self-addressing on either, or both, IPv4 & IPv6. ARP is used to verify that no other device on the local network is using the same address. For Macs, self assigned IPv4 Link-Local addressing became available with OS X 10.0. IPv6 always supported this feature. Verify that you have IPv6 Link-Local, as a minimum, running on your Mac. System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi or Ethernet (as appropriate) > Advanced > TCP/IP tab > Configure IPv6 > Either "Automatically" or "Link-local only."
Host Naming - Device naming is dependent on Multicast DNS (mDNS). This is the ".local" name for the device. It will create one unless you enter one in System Preferences > Sharing > Computer Name. mDNS will issue a Query command to see if any other device is using the same name. mDNS is available with all versions of OS X. Windows devices would require Bonjour for Windows. mDNS requires UDP port 5353 to be opened on the device's software firewall. Note: This is not the same as the router's firewall.
Service Discovery - Requires the first two items to be working and available. Note: A problematic /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist file may prevent your Mac from advertising its services.

There are many ways of stripping metadata. Not sure how "locking" it would be of any use.

Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

Nobody here is responsible for what is or is not available in any country. I believe it is a software licensing thing.

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.

Why does Muse not allow a .build domain in their contact us widget?

The contact us widget does not allow me to use a .build domain. I am in the architecture and construction industry and use a .build domain for our website and emails. I hope this will be fixed soon.

Working on it. Should be addressed in the next major update.

Why does it take SO long to synchronize my iphone with my macbook pro

Hi fellow users,
It takes unbelievable long for my iPhone 4S to synchronise with my MacBook Pro. Happens everytime.
I started the synch early yesterday evening (19:00). It is now 10:35 the following day and it is still not finished.
Has anyone any ideas?
Have a great day Desmond, a Brit living in Germany.

I have this aggravating issue as well, only I just have an iPhone 4s 16GB (yes, STILL!). One of the (many) reasons I haven't upgraded is the deteriorating performance factors induced by Apple. If it takes forever to sync just a 16GB iPhone, syncing a 64GB or 128GB iPhone must be an all day test of aggravation! Since I'm finding no credible or relevant answers here I thought I'd post my observations. When I watch the sync process, I can see that the procedure backs up my iPhone data, removes it from the phone, then reinstalls it again with any updates to the data since the last sync. This is a programming "feature". I don't know what the reasons are for not designing the sync process to handle only changed data as in any other data backup process. Maybe it's laziness at Apple, maybe it's a technical issue that their programmers are incapable of solving, or maybe there's a monitoring aspect involved that this method allows Apple to collect information on users more effectively. I just don't know their reasons for this, or many baffling things they do. I do know that if their corporate data backups were performed in the same manner in which the iPhone sync is performed, there would never be a break in the backup processes at Apple, nor would the process ever complete. It's ludicrous to program the SW (iTunes) run this inefficiently. I can't fathom having a larger capacity iPhone and dealing with the constant aggravation of what must be hours to sync simple data changes caused only by the poor routine programmed into iTunes. From what I can see, it's basically like loading a blank phone every time I want to sync data. Completely ridiculous as far as I can tell. Even if the reasoning is to remove dead sectors, blank sectors etc, I'd think with all the money Apple has and makes on a quarterly basis, they could afford to spend the time and money in R&D to make the sync process a **** of lot more tolerable for users.

Why did I not a $100 app store gift card with my MacBook Pro purchase for college?

Hi, sometime in July I purchased a MacBook Pro 13 inch. for college at my local Apple Store. I got the discount and everything. I didn't even know I got a gift card until I saw that my friend had one the other day. And I also saw online that you got one. Why didn't I get one?

I actually bought it June 17. Is it too late to get one? Shoulnd't they have it on record whether or not they gave me one?

Why does Firefox no longer scale its size correctly with my new Macbook Pro?

hey folks, experiencing a weird issue and I'm not sure how to resolve it.
I've been using Firefox as my default browser for about a year, love it. I had been using a late 2011 Macbook Pro, sometimes just as a laptop, sometimes attached to a 4 year old external monitor. No issues.
A few weeks ago I switched to a new Macbook Pro with the retina display. When I use the laptop with my external monitor, the sizing of the app is all wrong. It's like super zoomed out. Web pages and text like the menus, bookmarks, etc..are so small I can't read them. When I use the laptop just as a laptop, sometimes Firefox looks ok, and sometimes it's showing this rendering problem.
I tried launching Firefox in safe mode without my plethora of add ons, no change in behavior.
I'm running what I think is the latest version of Firefox for the Mac, v 34.0.5. As an example, I could not read the version number, it was too tiny. I could see where it was so copied it and pasted it in here. And, I'm running the latest version of Yosemite, 10.10.1.
I'd love to get Firefox working again, does anyone have any suggestions. Right now I've had to go back to Safari as my default browser, which is ok but I do prefer Firefox.
One additional note: I'm not seeing this behavior with any other app. Everything else looks appropriately sized. The issue is only with Firefox. I appreciate any ideas any of y'all might have, thank you.

One more thing: even though Firefox said it was up to date, it appeared the latest version was 35.0. So, I downloaded and installed that, thinking maybe a fresh install would remedy this problem. No joy, still looks the same.
Bummer.
I'm attaching a screenshot of how the browser looks, for reference.

Why does it take an hour to download 140 mb on a macbook pro?

I recently purchased the macbook pro with retina and now when I try to download files from the internet it takes 40+ plus minutes. I'm downloading small, less than 140 mb files. On my old macbook from 2008 it would take a few minutes. I did not pay 4,000 dollars to downgrade what is going on

How are you connected to the internet? Check with your isp to determine if the slowness is on their end and you can also check your speed on the Speedtest website.

Why does caps lock light remains on when I turn off my macbook pro?

I had a problem recently come up with my MacBook Pro Early 2011 15 inch 2.0 ghz computer. The the caps lock light initiates at boot up. When I depress caps lock the light goes off but then only allows capital letters. All sybols associtated with depressing the cap button such as the "at" sign are screwed up. When I turn my computer off with safe mag attached, the caps light remains on. When I remove the safe mag, the caps light goes off. Any clues as to what is going on?
Thank you for your inputs ahead of time.
Bret
