Your MBP has unusual symptoms.  I suggest starting with an Apple Hardware Test:

You may need to start it with the OPTION and D keys.
It may be helpful if you indicated the model of your MBP and the OS.
Ciao.

    my ipod classic is visible in windows but not in itunes, this happens on 2 different computers where my iphone and ipod touch work fine which leads me to think something is up with the ipod itself and i cant find any threads to help.
    any thoughts anyone??

    Perhaps the reason you haven't had any replies is because there is no such thing as an 8GB iPod Classic.
    I suggest that you begin by correctly identifying which iPod you have.

  • When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.

    When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.
    With new files opening as a layer and not a background I'm not able to create multiple layers and it wont let me convert the layer to the background.
    How did this happen. I used PS just yesterday and had no problems. Today my computer did mandatory updates and now this.

    Yes. You are using the Ellipse Tool's Pixel option. So it is laying down pixels as it is supposed to do without creating a layer.
    Choose the Shape option:
    Also Layer menu > New Layer creates layers and the curled paper at the bottom of your Layers palette also creates a New Layer. I hope those work.

  • When I open iTunes using Vista its showing up as com and not iTunes

    when I open iTunes using Vista its showing up as com and not iTunes

    Vista is an operating system... you do not open anything with it.
    What do you mean "its showing up as com"?  What is "com"?
    Maybe try posting in your native language so that we have a better understanding of what the real issue is.

    Try to reset - Press both the home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo reappears.

  • My MacBook keeps beeping 3 times when I try to turn it on and  it won't go on

    Hi
    I have a macbook ?2008
    Snow leopard
    Recently it has become full and has been shutting down unexpectantly.
    Now when I try and turn it on, it continually beeps 3 short then 3 long
    I don't know what to do.
    Any ideas. I'm worried I will lose all the files, photos etc. I haven't backed it up for a few months

    Three beeps indicates a memory problem, not storage. In your case though try a Safe boot http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564 if you can get it started you need to remove some things from your hard drive. When your Mac tells you that your start up drive is getting full you need to act.

  • Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

    Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
    I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

    Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

  • Connecting Macbook to Sony Bravia 32" - Won't fill screen and not clear

    I just picked up a Mini-DVI > DVI and DVI > HDMI cord today from my local Apple Store and hooked up my Macbook to my new Sony Bravia 32" HDTV. Unfortunately, I having some problems setting it up. My issues are:
    - I'm not sure how to make my TV the MAIN and ONLY display. I'd like to play games like WoW and watch movies from iTunes on it with the best possible quality and resolution.
    - When connected, the image doesn't fill the whole TV perfectly. It either gets cut off or has black borders. Using the TV's zoom fuction just distorts the image further and possibly cuts off the edges.
    - The quality is less than what I was hoping for. Text is hard to read and pixilated and images just don't look that great. I suspect this might be because it's not filling the whole screen but I am unsure.
    I'd really appreciate detailed instructions on how to deal with the software side of this since my connection is fine.

    Here is a link that should answer your second question about making the TV the sole display:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
    As for the screen quality issue, does your TV's manual mention anything about making a computer connection? Does it say to use the VGA port or is HDMI supported for computer use? Also, do you know the TV's native resolution? If it is a 1366 x 768 native panel in the TV, then don't run it at 1920 x 1080 interlaced. That's too high. It will look best if run at it's natvie resolution.
    As for the picture being either too big or too small, that is called overscan. Many newer Sony's have a setting called "Full" under the Wide Mode setting that gets rid of overscan.

  • My phone keeps telling me to connect to itunes. And I tried to restart but it just keeps popping up. What do I do?

    I tried to updated my phone to iOS 7.1.1 and it wouldn't load. It just kept saying "Verifying Update" and wouldnt load. It was on the charger and then it just shut off and now it's telling me to connect to itunes. I tried shutting it off and restarting it but it just keeps showing up. I dont know what to do. And when I connected to itunes, it says i have to restore my phone and that my phone is in restore mode.

    Your phone is in recovery mode and must be restored using iTunes.
    Any data that you did not back up has been lost.

  • I recently changed my e-mail hosting service, and all my mail in my iPhone just disappered, How can I get it back? How can I prevent from it happening again?

    As soon as I changed de Pop settings in t, all my mail disappered in a matter of minutes, Why? How can I get it back? I did full backup a couple of weeks ago, can I recover it from there?

    Hey jartansmom,
    Thanks for the question. You may need to configure the outgoing mail server for the account. The following resource will outline how to navigate to these settings, however instead of adding a server, you’ll then want to update the settings with your correct username and password:
    iOS: Configuring additional outgoing mail servers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4519
    1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    2. Tap the Mail account for which you would like to change the settings. If you configured your account using any of the built-in presets, IMAP, or Exchange, you may need to tap Account Info on the following screen.
    3. On the Account Info screen, locate the Outgoing Mail Server section and tap the existing SMTP entry. A list of SMTP servers will appear with the Primary Server and Other SMTP Servers.
    If you need help with your mail settings, you can utilize this tool:

  • My macbook keeps beeping randomly

    I want to kill the RAM issue right off the bat. I know what bad ram beeping is. That is a 'Hardware' beep. It comes from the logic board. The beep i'm talking about is in software. I'll be using my mac as usual and a 'software' sound effect beep will happen. It's not harsh or anything. It sounds like a notification or update but I can't find the source. It's not so much annoying as it is inquisitive. Does anybody know what program or function would be causing this?

    One possibility is you have clicked on something unclickable or tried to execute a shortcut improperly. It can be a sound effect for Mail or some other application. It could be your Attention sound or Alert sound.

  • My MacBook keeps beeping every 25 seconds.

    MacBook Pro 15" non-retnia.  4 months old.  I hardly shut it down, maybe have 3x in 4 months, Genuis said that was fine.
    This morning when I opened the cover, it was frozen, I couldn't move my mouse.  Then the beeping started.  It beeps every 25 seconds.
    I muted it and shut it down but the beeping continued while off.  I am able to boot back up and use the computer but the beeping continues.  There are no updates available, nor have I updated anything recently. 
    Anyone know what is going on and how I can stop it?
    Thanks,
    Saraant

    Ok, now I am going to sound like the biggest idiot here (if I didn't already by spelling Genius wrong lol)
    But I heard the beep differently that last time and it didn't sound good, sounded like there was static interferance... that's when I realized my BF had his walkie-talkie on the table next to me and the battery was beeping "low batt" 
    UGH!  Anyway, I'm so happy it's not my Mac!!!
    Sorry to waste anyone's time!

  • MacBook wont wake up from sleep, shuts down randomly, and won't burn. . .

    Ever since I upgraded my MacBook to Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.4 from Tiger (and also purchased and installed Office Mac 2008), it will not wake up from sleep. If I close it while it is still awake, (which I normally would without problems before I upgraded) it will not wake up when I open it; the screen just stays black and I have to use the power button to restart it. This also happens when it falls asleep naturally after being on screen saver. It is a really big annoyance and I know that it must be damaging my computer.
    Also, now it will randomly shut down if it does not have the power adapter plugged in, which never happened before.
    ALSO, my CD burn attempts will fail midway and say "medium write error".
    Can my computer not handle all of the new software I put on it or something? I feel as though it's slowly deteriorating, and it's not even 2 years old. Do I need to buy more memory or disk space? I am really clueless as to how to fix these problems. I'm only 16 and really can't afford to spend money on getting it looked at, so PLEASE help

    Welcome to Apple Discussions:
    You need to give us more info about your computer: RAM, speed, HD size, freespace etc.
    Look at the activity monitor and console logs for potential issues.
    Normally a computer will run faster and better with Leopard.
    You need to take inventory of any Tiger apps that are not Leopard compatible that may be problematic. Also check what items you have in your login pane.
    Have you recently run the disk utility and repaired HD and permissions?
