In Australia and Trying to Use League Pass on My TV
Everything seems ready to work with NBA League Pass except when I try to bring up a particular game the screen alternates between accessing and authenticating but never bringing up the selected game.

I have had some extreme slowness on my iMac, particularly with Mail (launching and retrieving emails takes forever) so I am trying to use Disk Utility to see if I can locate and fix the problem. I'm trying to use the version of DU that's on my MacBook Pro and am connecting it to my iMac via firewire 800 to do this. I restarted my iMac with the "T" key held down to make it into a target disk and it comes up on my MacBook Pro desktop. The trouble arises when I try to use Disk Utility from the laptop to verify and repair the iMac disk -- Disk Utliity in my MacBook Pro gives me an error that reads "The disk "iMac" could not be unmounted."
I have all peripherals unplugged from the iMac and have only the firewire 800 cable plugged into it. Any idea what I'm going wrong?
try starting up your iMac with the install disk that came with it and launch DU from the install disk.

Ive just upgraded to Mountain lion, I was using Safari and tried to use iCloud tabs. When I open it up there are no tabs there, anyone have any ideas on how to get it working?
Can you check system update? I think I did a system Update 1st, a day before installing OSX Lion and there is a Safari update. If not try logging in iCloud.

I recently installed a backup to Yosemite 10.10.1 and tried to use Adobe Acrobat Pro.
I recently installed a backup to Yosemite 10.10.1 and tried to use Adobe Acrobat Pro. A message appeared saying that it was part of suite and I needed to open another program like Photoshop CS4. When I tried this Photoshop nor any of the programs of the suite would open. Then I got an error - 150:30 contact adobe.com/support. Anyone with answers?

I backed up my system using 10.6 Snow Leopard's Time Machine to an external hard drive. I did this because I purchased a new internal hard drive to upgrade my 2007 White Macbook from 80GB to 320GB. When I installed the new hard drive, I installed 10.4 (Tiger) and then 10.5 (Leopard) and once Leopard was in I tried to use Time Machine to restore my backup from 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and received a kernal panic screen directly after the bootup.
The screen had code asking for 10.6, so does this mean that the computer is searching for Snow Leopard? If so, how can I do this? Will a bootable drive with Snow Leopard on it be able to solve the issue or will I somehow need to find a way to wipe out this new hard drive?
-SteveBooting From Snow Leopard Installer Disc
1. Insert Snow Leopard Installer Disc into the optical drive.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
5. Wait for installer to finish loading.
Drive Preparation and Installation
1. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
7. After formatting is complete quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard. -

My computer crashes repeatedly and I get the message pages are not responding do you want to stop, and/or shockwave is not responding do you want to stop. I have Windows XP Service Pack 3, I am having the same issues whether I use Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. My HP Pavilion Desktop has 504 MB of Ram and I am using high speed internet connection. Because it was crashing so much, I used the uninstall program for Flash player to uninstall Flash, I checked my registry and removed anything I saw that was Flash. I then uninstalled Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, then I reinstalled the most recent versions from their websites. I did the same for FlashPlayer and Shockwave Flash. I went to the Adobe website and had them check to see if it was working and it shows I have FlashPlayer 10.3.181.36. The page that shows which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play. When I do start to play it freezes frequently and I use escape to free it up. This has been going on for a month. I have no idea what to do. I am not very computer savy and I have been learning as I go. -
I am running a laptop with windows 7 and am trying to use the save as feature in Photoshop CS6 and it wont let me save as anything. Can someone please help me with this?
A screenshot of your Photoshop work area showing the open file you want to save as, the Layers panel open, and the Save as... dialog open might give us a clue as to what is going on.
To take a screenshot and save it as a file
For Windows 7, Printscreen, open a New File in Photoshop, Ctrl v to paste, then save as jpeg (the other trick was for windows 8)
Use the Camera icon on your reply to upload it.
Also File > Save for Web is a good workaround if you just need a jpeg, png, or gif.

Hello - I have Lightroom 5. I have imported a color photo. I am trying to use the Adjustment Brush to change the background to Black and White and leave a portion of the photo in color. When I begin painting the photo with the Saturation at -100 I don't see any changes to the photo. I push the "O" key and still nothing. I have tried to reset the photo, restarted Lightroom and still nothing. Please help.
Set Flow and Density of the brush to 100
Reduce it where you want the effect to blend.

Want to us my time capsule model A1409 as only backup. 2 TB hard drive.
Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not want to use Time capsule as router, only back up for iMac.
Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule to Ethernet port back of my iMac.
And also it is asking for password for the server John Garland's Time Capsule so Time machine can access it..
Have tried all of passwords can think of and none work.
Held the reset button for one second on back of capsule and do not see if anything happened.
What a conundrum.
Appreciate any help to get this working.
Thanks,
John RI have a 2TB Timecapsule and really only use it for Time Machine backups. But the Wi-Fi side is used to sync my iPad at times.
Mine is wiredup thus;
Eth cable from iMac to modem (not the WAN port should you have one), then eth cable from modem to T/Cap in the WAN port (bottom port with an O sign above it)
I believe when its connected up you may have to set up a wireless network. Follow the instructions to set up Wi-Fi and Network
and then give it a password. The WiFi icon should appear in the menu bar where you can switch it on or off.
Its been sometime since I set it with the help of Apple Techs so I might be a bit rusty.

I have a 2008 mac, and am trying to use the latest iPhoto app. But it won't open. I have installed the library upgrade but still won't open?
Why not? We can not see you so you have to give us details
Did you run the iPhoto Library upgrader after you installed it - if not backup your iphoto library and go to the utilities folder in your Applications folder and double click on the iphoto library upgrader and RUN i - then launch iphoto 9.6 to complete the upgrade

Laptop died and trying to use the hard drive as an external
Hello,
I'm new to this forum and did a search, but couldn't find the answer to my problem. I was using a Dell laptop with a Toshiba hard drive. I'm not sure what the model number is, but I think it's hdd2193.
At any rate, the laptop died (it stopped accepting power, nothing to do with the hard drive) but it died with some files on it that I need. Everywhere I looked on the web, it said that all you need to do when this happens is get an external enclosure and plug it in.
I did this and when I plug it in, Windows XP asks me to format my drive! It recognizes it is there, but won't access any of the files.
After some research, somebody informed me that certain Toshiba hard drives are locked to the laptop they came from, and as a result, might not work in an external hard drive enclosure. I need to know if this is the case, and if so, what I can do about it. If this is not the case, then I need to know why it's asking me to format, and how I can access my files. (If necessary, what data recovery program I could use to get my data off of it.)
Keep in mind that there was NOTHING wrong with the hard drive when I pulled it out of the laptop, and I was very careful about disconnecting and connecting it, so I don't believe the hard drive is corrupted. I think there is something else that's wrong, perhaps even the external hard drive enclosure.
Thanks a lot for any help you can give.MK4026GAX is the model number. That makes it a 40gig IDE 2.5" 9.5mm 5400RPM internal laptop hard drive.
That enclosure is one that is well known to have problems. I would say that the problem is with the enclosure personally, but without having it here to test I can only be about 90% certain of that. But since it draws it's power from the USB port I would have to lean in that direction. Comments on the Newegg site, along with comments I have read elsewhere show that the problem you are having is well known to happen with that enclosure though. If you can try plugging it into a POWERED USB hub or directly into one of the motherboards USB ports. Those normally supply more power than the USB ports mounted on the front of the case. Also, do NOT use a USB extension cord as they tend to cause issues with these types of USB powered enclosures. I normally use one of these to retrieve data from hard drives. http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0285941 I've found them to be much more reliable and easier to use than an enclosure for temporary use. I've yet to have a working drive that it won't work with. Plus it works with ALL SATA and IDE hard drives from laptops and desktops.
I know for a fact that it isn't a FAT file system, as that only recognizes hard drive partitions up to 2gigs in size. If it's Windows XP it's either FAT32 or NTFS. Since both systems have XP then it wouldn't matter as XP supports both. I have no idea about the Mac as I don't use them (they aren't reliable enough and too many limitations to be usefull to me).
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time. -
I bought my iphone from australia and i cant use it here in philippines
My husband bought a 2nd hand iphone from Australia for a present. but doesnt work here in philippines.
I try to connect to itunes but looks like is lock. we already call the telstra as what my husband say its working properly there,
but until now, dont have responce.. so what i need to do??Get the phone unlocked from the carrier in Australia - they are the only ones who can do this and you will then be able to use the phone.
If it is the activation lock, then you may never be able to use this phone unless you get the details from the previous owner of the phone. -
HT204144 I am on mac mini (mid 2011) and iphone 6 and trying to use airdrop but it is not working.
I followed all instructions but under mac finder, air drop is simply blank. I have set-up everyone on airdrop on iphone 6 in control center. Am I missing something. I am also on same network.
I read this paragraph:
In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed and your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model. To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need one of the Mac models listed below and OS X Lion or later.
MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
*The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
--end--
So I am using mac mini mid 2011 and according to this line, I may not use it and need mac 2012, right? but why air drop is showing here on my mac mini is due to fact that transfer between 2 mac computers is possible if one is even of less than 2012 make.
I think I am clear now. Thank you and see if you have any thought on this?
