My DVD write comes up with an error -43. Never done that before. What could be the reason. Please help
iDVD is not involved in the process at all.
What you want to do is create a data disk on a DVD. That's done by inserting a blank DVD disc in the optical drive, Option+drag the files you want to backup onto the disc icon on the desktop and then drag that icon to the Trash bin in the dock which turns into the Burn feature.
Try that (the Option+drag and see if you can get your files to burn.

I tried to update my iPhone 3GS with iOS, data was restored but on continue with activation in the iTunes stores, it is replying "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." what could be the reason?
Hmm, well... iTunes trys to activate your iPod using the Apple server to make sure you have bought it legit.
Two things come into my mind:
1) Your iTunes can't access the internet.
2) Apples activation servers are down.
That's just my cents, maybe anyone else has an idea. -
The words in my .docx file are getting merged when the file is transferred to another computer for printing. For eg. the sentence "rate of success ......" is displayed as "rateof success" on the other computer. What could
be the reason for this? How to solve this issue?Have you checked that the document is using the exact same font on both machines? If the second machine doesn't have the font installed that's used in the original document on the first machine, Word will pick the closest matching font, and that may
display slightly differently. -
Ipad 2 slowing down on new ios? What can be the reason?
Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Mac pro shuts off when I try to wake from sleep
Hello mac gurus.
I've a problem that is slowly getting more and more frequent.
Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
OSX 10.5.6
4 gig ram
When I leave work I let the computer go to sleep automatically. (I think I have it set for one hour of inactivity).
In the morning when I arrive at work, the LED power button is pulsing like it should. But... When I hit the space bar to wake the computer, I hear a clicking noise (from inside the computer), and the power button goes dark (ie: it shuts down completely). I then have to push the power button to restart and login as usual and all is fine.
This doesn't happen every time. But lately it seems to happen about 2-3 times a week.
I tried searching the message boards, but nothing seemed to describe my issue exactly. I'm suspecting an SMC reset might help, but again, that doesn't seem to be what's happening.
Thoughts? Help?
Thanks!
CyenThanks Dale,
No I had not tried it, because I was unsure if the SMC reset was my problem or not. Since your post, I just did the reset this morning. I'll see if this fixed the problem, and I'll post an update in a few days (with hopefully positive results).
Note: I was expecting some sort of acknowledgment from the computer that the reset was successful, and there was none. So I hope I did it right.
(For those wondering, the SMC reset is simple. Shut down your computer. Unplug the power cord. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. Plug it back in, and restart.) -

When I'm using my webcam, for instance with FaceTime it's very slow... What can it be?
The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies. -

Nothing happens when I click. What could be the reason?
Using a web-based application with firefox where I can normally access my e-mails and database entries, nothing happens when I click, although the mouse cursor shows the "hand with finger" sight when I run over it. This was working fine till yesterday morning.
It can't be a problem with the web-based application, as colleagues using the same firefox version are not facing any problems. Also, when using a different browser (e.g. Chrome) no problems either.Using a web-based application with firefox where I can normally access my e-mails and database entries, nothing happens when I click, although the mouse cursor shows the "hand with finger" sight when I run over it.
