I have a new Macbook Air, 6 months old, and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on and the computer seems to running more slowy.The computer is not hot but I am worried it may burn out,.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

Hello dwb,
Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
Thank you again for your advice,
Regard,

I've been working on our church website and all of a sudden this week, my computer will not connect to the site. I keep getting a message saying that the the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?

The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

I have recently purchased a used iPhone 4, when i plugged it into my pc a skull came up instead of the apple icon. My pc does not recognise the iPhone, I have tried everything that I can think of. Has anybody any ideas on how I can fix this?

I have recently purchased a used iPhone 4, when I pulg it into my pc a skull icon appears instead of the apple. The pc also does not recognise the iPhone. The phone was originally purchased in March of this year, so it is under 12 months old. Has anybody encountered this problem and or know how I can fix the phone? Thanks

You have apparently purchased a jailbroken phone. You can try to get it into recovery mode, then restore as new, but no guarantee it will work.

My iPad Air pictures are a little grainy. The images are not very sharp. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Hi, I have an 32gb IPad Air. The picture quality is blurry and grainy. I don't know why it is happening. It is two months old and the quality has always been this way. I am going to a friends wedding in two weeks and I want to figure out how to take good pictures.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You would be much better off with a point-and-shoot camera, especially for an occasion like a wedding. The iPad Air only has a 5MP camera.
Make sure you're taking pictures in a well-lit area. You should be able to tap on a face/area on the screen to get the camera to focus. Either of those may help.

Itunes won't load latest upgrade, error message says 'the itunes update server could not be contacted' Any ideas on how I can fix this?

I've been trying to update my version of Itunes for ages now and I keep getting an error message. When I get the automatic alerts for the upgrade this also won't work or the upgrade to Quicktime & I'm getting a bit miffed now.

Any help would be appreciated.

HT1338 Every time I try to do a software update it tells me that my software is up to date but it's not I have version 10.5.8 Any ideas on how I can fix this??? thanks

help...

Hello,
10.5.8 is as far as 10.5 can go, there haven't been any "updates" for some time for 1.5.x, what you need is a paid "Upgrade", but to see what might work on your Mac...
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware> and report this upto but not including the Serial#...

I have a 1st Gen, MacBook Pro from 2006. For the last few years I've had to us my power adaptor as my battery no longer works. Now my power adaptor looks like it's coming to an end. Even though it's securely fitted, it often switches off.

I have a 1st Gen, MacBook Pro from 2006. For the last few years I've had to us my power adaptor as my battery no longer works, and shuts down after 30 seconds it. Now my power adaptor looks like it's coming to an end. Even though it's securely fitted, it often switches off.
I am planning on buying a new MacBook Pro later this year, but for the meantime I'm not sure if I should buy a new power adaptor, or if this is a problem with my MacBook Pro. Also does anyone know where I can buy a battery in the UK for 1st Gen MacBook Pro.

OWC has batteries for 1,1 generation MacBook Pros and they ship internationally - http://eshop.macsales.com/.
Your best bet for a power adapter is to get one from Apple. Third-party adapters just don't seem to be reliable (or safe). You can also buy a replacement battery directly from Apple, of course, but they're a bit more expensive.
Good luck,

You can transfer the games but you will lose your game progress. now if you've played through game center you might keep something, but I'm not sure, I turn that off. But when I transferred my angry birds from my touch to my ipad i had to replay the levels over

HT2729 When I sync my phone to my computer, I do not get the movies and tv series I purchased on my phone on my computer. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

I am trying to sync my IPhone up to my computer. It shows it is working, but the movies and t.v. series I purchased from my phone are not showing up in my library on my computer. I have updated both my phone and computer. I am using windows. Any suggestions on how I can get this to work?

Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

I have tried to migrate between 2 iMacs but every time it stops at the 1 minute mark and freezes, any thoughts on how I can fix this?

I have an iMac desktop from 2009 and a brand new one, I have them connected directly, migration assistant freezes every time at the one minute mark, any idea how to fix this? it seems it has something to do with one of the profiles set up on the older computer.

Need more info. What version of OS X is on the 2009 iMac? How are you connecting them? FireWire-Thunderbolt or Ethernet?

I have imovie '08, 7.1.4(585) and when it opens my video library and projects do not load. Any suggestions on how I can fix this problem?

I have many hours of video on my computer and I haven't had this problem before. In the past, imovie opened up and then is asks me if I would like thumbnails generated. Any suggestions?

Hi
Did You alter or move any folders named ?
• iMovie Project's - or -
• iMovie Event's
Don't - either iMovie get's confused or it can't find them at all (it has NO search for them - function -at all)
If You did move or alter anything - try to get all back as before and it might work again.

please help , my ipad won't turn on

What were you doing when this happened? Is it charged?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
