Three options:
1. Call AppleCare.
2. Go to an Apple Store.
3. Go to an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP)

  • The screen of my MacBook Pro itself periodically switches the color. That is, with the usual colors, on some blue. What to do? Should be repaired, or you can figure out the most? HELP ME PLEASE!

    LambChops1,
    I’m using Mavericks, and it’s still possible to select text to drag and for cutting and pasting. Left-clicking and right-clicking is still possible, too.
    Try opening the Trackpad pane of System Preferences, and select the Point & Click tab. To right-click, ensure that your “Secondary click” checkbox has been checked; the small print under “Secondary click” is a dropdown menu which allows you to select the form of right-clicking that you prefer. (For instance, mine is set to “Click in bottom right corner”.) For left-clicking, is your “Tap to click” checkbox checked, or unchecked? (Mine is unchecked, since I prefer pushing for left-clicking over tapping to do so.)

  • So I need a little help with the Flash Colors

    I always use the Red, Blue and Green gradient Flash colors below for metalic stuff, but how can I get the effect in this red color in different colors like Yellow?

    If you want to use the preset gradients, what you could do is first color whatever area you intend to with one of them, and then select the fill and use the Color panel to change the red to whatever other color you prefer.   If you have never worked with the gradient section of the Color panel, you will probably find it a bettter tool to create and fine-tune transitions.
    You just doubleclick that little red square in the lower left and it opens a color swatch like the one you showed to select another color

  • The app store screen is way off to the right and stuck with the spinning wheel. I can't close it. Should I force close? It said iPhoto did not update.

    The App Store screen is way off to the right so I can't access it. It has the little spinning wheel I can see when I swipe up to see what's open. It won't close. Should I try to force it? How much more time should I give it? I did just give Google some accessibily access that it asked for. Just upgraded to Maverick. I thought everything was fine. Says iPhoto needs a retry; but I can't get to the screen to try again. Pages also says it has an update; but also says it just updated.

    Thank Carolyn,
    I had tried that; but to restart it had to close, and to close it had to close the App Store, which was stuck. Finally did a force close. Am now trying to update iPhoto. We'll see if works this time.

  • When trying to install os x mavericks to my macbook pro as it started to install the computer now is stuck with the OS X Mavericks intall showing and I can't get out of it or force quit?

    When trying to upgrade and install OS X Mmavericks to my Macbook Pro as it started to install the computer stopped the install and now is stuck with the OS X Mavericks intall window showing and I can't get out of it or force quit? I can not do anything else because this is stuck with this window/install screen showing. I have tried everything to get back to my regular desktop. I do not want to wipe the drive because I have photos on it that I want to save. So if there is any way to bypass this installer and get back to my regular desktop I would greatly appreciate the help.

    i downloaded an adobe flash update and my computer after next logon got a blue screen.  I could only start in safe mode and until uninstalling the flash player could i start in safe mode with networking.  i cannot open any microsoft products now. I get a message saying adobe acrobat 10 is not designed to run on windows or uninstall and reinstall it ....but it will not let me uninstall it.  What do i do?  is this all an adobe issue or a windows problem??  thanks   Tim

    Hate to suggest this, but you need to ask in the Flash forum. This forum is for Acrobat.

  • I just tried to install a the new update for my iPad and it started but now its stuck with the apple in the window and it won't finish the update

    My iPad is stuck with the apple and the updating line but it is not finishing the update and the iPad is stuck I can't shut it off nothing is working just the bright white apple in the window.

    Hi rm44,
    Try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the reset is complete, the Home or Lock screen will display. Once the device is back up, go to Settings>General>About, and see what version is displaying. If it has the iOS number you were updating to, then you are all set.
    If it has the old iOS version number, then the update did not take place. The best thing to do in that situation is to hook the device up to iTunes on the computer you sync with, and to update via iTunes.
    Cheers,

  • Stuck with the apple and the scrolling gear while booting

    Hi there
    i am using my mac for more than 2 years , i did not format it or even fix any thing into it but now something bad happend...
    accdentaly my genius friend preesed the power putton for more than 5 seconds to start up the computer and i heared a sound and a the normal flashing light under the track pad and suddenly i was stuck with the apple gray booting screen and the scrooling gear and the computer does not go further .. i left for 2 hours and it still stuck with the same screen ... try to restart do any thing no results also ...
    NOTE: THE BIG PROPLEM IS THAT I PUT A PASSWORD FOR THE FRIMWARE AND I FORGOOT IT SO I CAN NOT USE THE FOLLWOING:
    1-the ability to use the "C" key to start up from an optical disc.
    2-the ability to use the "N" key to start up from a NetBoot server.
    3-the ability to use the "T" key to start up in Target Disk Mode (on computers that offer this feature).
    4-Diagnostic volume of the Install DVD.
    5-mode by pressing the Command-S key combination during startup.
    6- a reset of Parameter RAM (PRAM) by pressing the Command-Option-P-R key combination during startup.
    Requires the password to use the Startup Manager, accessed by pressing the Option key during startup (see below).
    7- Safe mood.
    8-Single mode acsses and the other one i forrgot its name.
    SO I FIGURED THERE IS NO WAY BETER THAN THE PRIVIOUS WAYS TO SOLVE THE PROPLEM
    IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR ANY THING SO I CAN FIX THIS THING ?
    Thanks in advance >>>

    I was mistaken about the PMU..with a little more digging I found that Open Firmware password can be removed if you change the amount of memory installed.
    I found this info here: http://archive.macosxlabs.org/documentation/firmwaresecurity/faqs/faqs.html#remove_passwordprotection
    The following is a link from Apple's site to download the user's manual for your iBook:
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iBookG4(Mid2005)_UsersGuide.pdf
    It provides the instructions to add or remove memory from the machine. If you do have additional memory installed then you'll be able to remove the memory, and reset the PRAM, that way your password is gone. Hopefully from there we can figure out and fix your startup issue.

  • Stuck with the Apple and nothing else

    It seems many are having problems with the recent software update. Me too - can anyone help?
    Following the update I am now stuck with the Apple sign. When I do a restore (Menu/Play) the apple sign dissaperars, then comes back and I am back where I started.
    My computer no longer recognises my iPod either!
    Any ideas?

    The most likely solution, Angel, is to restore your iPod then re-sync with iTunes to load your songs on. See this:

    I'm having problems with FlashPlayerPlugin and plugin-container. They keep starting up and bogging down the system. This has been a recent occurrance. I've made sure that I have the latest version. I notice the problem when I am opening some applicatio, and it freezes. If I go to Task Manager, I can see the two Adobe apps sucking up CPU cycles. If I end the processes, then the other apps continue. Today, I uninstalled FlashPlayerPluginqand plugin-container. All day since I have had no freezing of an app. What should I do to correct the problem?

    Here's an explanation of what those processes are. 
    Inside Flash Player Protected Mode for Firefox
    I'm curious about what you did to uninstall just those.

  • HT4623 My phone is stuck with the iTunes display, an arrow and power cord on the display???

    My iphone is stuck with the iTunes logo, an arrow and powercord on the display.  It will not power down or allow me to do anything.  I updated to the most recent OS version this morning after my battery drained overnight (it was fully charged yesterday afternoon) and this was the result.  I also have downloaded the latest version of iTunes on my laptop ...

    My 2-year old iPhone 4s running iOS7 suddenly started doing the same thing (randomly going into Recovery Mode) almost every morning for the last week or so.  It recovers OK (albeit back to factory presets), but I'd sure like to know what's going on.  Any info?    

  • HT1212 My ipad mini has been crashing a lot recently so I started a system reset. However, it's now stuck with the progress bar less than a quarter gone: this has been the case for several days now. I have tried resetting from itunes but it needs the pass

    Now it's stuck with the progress bar less than a quarter full. I have also tried resetting through itunes which works right up to the point where itunes states that it needs the passcode to be inputted into the ipad to connect to it. At which point it then sticks at the same progress bar point. HELP!! please, this ipad is really important to my work.

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck
