2013 MBP 2.5 i5 4Gig 500MBHDD boots slow.  It finishes post in the same time as an identical MBP, and then hangs for 30 seconds on one of the ethernet adapters, before finishing the boot.  Once booted it is normal.   Turning off airport changes nothing.  Hardline adapter is not plugged in.  Thunderbolt adapter is not used.  Bluetooth is off.  Did this out of box.  Identical MBP boots to login screen in 36 seconds.  Disk repair, permission repair, and safe mode boot have
already been done, no change.  Boot time is consistent.  Hangs at the same place each time.  Right after post.  Bad adapter?
Comments, solutions please.

... and so ... now a few days later, success.   I ran
your software but it told me nothing I hadn 't seen
in verbose boot.
Consistently, following good post, the boot hung
for 30 seconds on the adapters, (cards, chips, NICs.
Ethernet cards, whatever you prefer to call them)
either the airport card or the hard line.  It would then
proceed at normal pace to the login screen.
Since it came out of the box that way, software
conflict was not a go.  I guessed glitched driver or
fetch instruction.  I zapped the PRAM (cleared
NVRAM) and reloaded the OS, updates, Garage Band,
iPhoto (one of Apple's true dogs in an otherwise
rare arena) iMovie, Photoshop, Lightroom, their
updates, and my files.   MBP pro now boots to login
in 31 seconds.  Note I have turned off as much gee
whiz, rubber band scroll, global swiping and other
hubcaps and hood ornaments as befits how like
things ... and turned off all the Asian and other fonts
I will. ever use.
Best guess ... corrupt driver or corrupt fetch script ...
bad server squirt at factory load.
Thanks for your help, Cheers!

  • Why does mountain lion "bunch up" all my microsoft office documents that I have open when I hit f3? When I had snow leopard for example, if i had 4 or 5 different microsoft office documents open at the same time I could hit f3 and easily pick one of them

    Why does mountain lion "bunch up" all my microsoft office documents that I have open when I hit f3? When I had snow leopard for example, if i had 4 or 5 different microsoft office documents open at the same time I could hit f3 and easily pick one of them.
    Notice how in the photo, I can't identify which MS office document I would like to switch too. Perhaps since the Dashboard and Desktop windows are at the top of my screen now Apple doesn't let you have all the applications take up the full screen and be sized individually so that you can have a better idea on what to pick.
    I like the idea of grouping to an extent... If you have a bunch of random things it was hard for me to decifer between what was safari, chrome, or word. But now that they grouped them like this, if you have multiple pages of one program running, you can't switch between those pages easily like before.

    If I wanted to open any of my Applework documents I had to open them one at a time and resave them with pages. This could take weeks.I have 1000s of apple work documents.
    You don't have to open and re-save every AppleWorks document you have right now. Just wait till you need one, then do it. The documents aren't going anywhere.
    Am I dealing with Microsoft? This was a BIG surprise to me that Apple would release an OS without testing all programs.
    Frankly, it is not Apple's responsibility to ensure compatibiltiy with every piece of software available for OS X. That is the responsibility of the software vendor. Lion has been available to developers for several months before it's release, so Microtek had plenty of time to update their software. Yet they did not. How is that Apple's fault? I think Apple was very generous to give you a refund for Lion.
    I'm not trying to belittle your frustration but I do think your ire is misplaced.

  • TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

    It should be within a few days, but it might vary a bit by bank/provider :

    Rajagopal.pngr :-  It is only a holding charge, it is not a permanent charge. If it isn't refunded within a few days or so (and it quite possibly won't be over a weekend) then you can query the charge with Apple.

  • Hi All.  My iPad 4 just started having issues with the volume.  On either Bluetooth or the iPad Speaker, anything I'm watching or listening to drops the sound to just barely hearing it and then, about 2 seconds later, it comes back.

    Hi All,
    I tried to search through the community, but with the sheer volume of posts, I didn't find anything that seemed like the same issue.
    My iPad 4 just started having issues with the volume.  On either Bluetooth or the iPad Speaker, anything I'm watching or listening to drops the sound to just barely hearing it and then, about 2 seconds later, it comes back.
    I haven't tried wired ear phones, but I am sure they'll be the same way.
    It's very random, but consistent enough to happen several times per day.
    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
    I have restarted it and also did a Hard Reboot and it didn't help.
    Thanks Again,
    Scott P.

    Well there you go, when you advertise it just be sure to say that you can't even see the scratches at half brightness and see how it goes.
    Of course you are saying you want $500 for one with many scratches on the screen, has been dropped, but the scratches aren't visible at half brightness, and has no warranty. Or I can buy a refurbished iPad 4 WiFi 32 GB directly from Apple with no scratches and a one year warranty for $499. http://store.apple.com/us/product/FD514LL/A/refurbished-ipad-with-retina-display -wi-fi-32gb-white-4th-generation
    Why would I buy yours?
    I wouldn't pay more than $300 for a used model with your specs in perfect condition. But yours is far from perfect. I think your high point is $250 which is why I said 50%.

  • How do I connect two video cameras to my computer have them both show up on the desktop at the same time so I can see and capture both images using a screen capture program?

    Hello, 
    I am a teacher and want to make some videos to post online for my class.  I would like to have it set up so that I have a powerpoint presentation going, a video camera pointing at a piece of paper I can write on and another video camera pointing at me.  How do I do this?  I have seen several solutions but they seem to be for switching between videos whereas I want both video images to be on at the same time.
    Also, is there a screen capture program you would recommend?

    Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.

  • I have had my iPhone 4s for a few months and the battery life was really good. Then around the same time I updated to ISO6 and I dropped it on the floor and since the battery life has been poor lasting only a few hours. Does anyone know why this is?

    I don't know why the battery life has just become so poor. I can listen to 1 song and lose 1/2% battery life. I had all the settings the same as before updating to ISO6 and now it just goes. I did drop it around the same time but I have a stong case so I don't see how this should effect it. If anyone knows how to fix it would be a great help because I used to love iPod but I am very dissapointed.

    Internal damage from fall or loose connector. Take it to
    Apple to be checked.

  • How can I get my itunes library on multiple computers at the same time. I have 3 and an iphone 4S

    So I have my itunes library on a laptop and synced with my iphone 4S. I have a new laptop and a tower and I use all three computers. Is there a simple way to have all three computers sync the same itunes library, and the phone?

    No.
    Iphone will sync with one and only one computer a a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.

    Hi, thanks for your answer,
    No, I connected the midi-in from the blofeld to midi-out from the virus. I was told to do so by the guy who sold me the ultralite mk3.
    I made some tests before getting the ultralite... I used the Virus soundcard as audio device and I could control the blofeld. But I had to link my monitor to the Blofed Out... then I wasn't able to listent to the Virus. But this way I could play the Blofeld in Logic (but couldn't see any midi data and when I bounced I had no sound)
    That's the main reason I decided to buy an external audio device (to be able to play both the Virus and the Blofeld)
    But I think the way I connected Blofeld to Virus is right because I can see the light which means it receives midi data.
    I think it's more about how to set it within logic...
    And the Blofeld only gets one Midi connection: Midi In
    Both my Virus and Blofeld are also connected to my MacPro via USB, that's the reason I didn't connect the synths to the ultralite via midi...
    thanks for you help! I'm getting crazy lol

  • Need to go into photo library to retrieve photos that technical support lost at the store.  Told to do "command Option" at the same time - than click on "I-photo"  then check the box "repair the i-photo library.... I have had two appointment at the store

    How can i retrieve my photo library that got lost by your techs at the apple store?

    First to locate your library on the hard drive launch iPhoto with the Option key held down so you get this window:
    Your library should be displayed in the window and it's location displayed below the window when clicked on.
    If that fails to locate your library download and run Find Any File to search for a file named "ThumbJPGSegment.data" which is a file common to all versions of iPhoto libraries.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.
    Once you find the library you can try to repair if it doesn't open as it should by trying this:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Is there a way to edit the same RAW file in Aperture 3 and then Photoshop CS5?

    I recently got Aperture 3.4.5 and its been great for stream-lining my workflow.  But for certain RAW adjustments, like applying a gradient, I want to use Photoshop CS5's RAW editing window.  I don't seem to be able to export the file as a modified CR2 from Aperture to Photoshop CS5.  Is there a way to do this?
    And if exporting a modified CR2 from aperture is not possible, what advice can you give me for applying gradients in aperture, or in combinations with photoshop.  Is there a way to open a JPEG or TIFF in the raw editing window by any chance?
    Any and all advice welcome.  Cheers!
    -Mike

    Is there a way to open a JPEG or TIFF in the raw editing window by any chance?
    If you open Bridge and go into the Camera Raw Preferences, you will see a section at the bottom where you can set preferences for TIFF handling. Setting the option to 'Automatically open all supported TIFFs' will result in any TIFF file sent from Aperture to Photoshop via 'Edit with Photoshop CS5' function being launched in ACR and allow you to work on the TIFF file.
    You then have to open the image in Photoshop with the 'Open' button in ACR and save the file (making sure you have the TIFF file extension set when saving). I haven't used this in a while, but I think it may try to save as a '.tif' file which would not be seen by Aperture when you complete the save (and have a '.tif' file sitting in the Masters folder that has no connection).
    This is still not the RAW file - obviously - but will allow you to use the ACR tools on the TIFF file generated by Aperture and return it with those edits if saved correctly in PS CS5.

  • How can i send multiple videos and photos, via mail, at the same time?

    you allowed to send only one video or 10(+) photos via mail.
    but can you send both at the same time? so 10(+) photos and a video (or more than one) in one mail?
    because if my mom has birthday pictures or something like that. She likes to be able to send it directly from her iphone to every person she knows in just one mail.
    anyone any tips or tricks?

    Those restrictions are generally part of the email provider, not just the phone. Attachments are restricted due to size, bandwith use, etc. Trying to send that much information in an email attachment is even restricted on a computer. Sharing via photo sites is generally a better option for large amounts of pictures and large video files.

  • Can I do multiple installs on  one server at the same time ?

    Hi. we have a project where the basis group is under very tight deadlines. We are tasked with installing multiple SAP systems on the same server. Is it possible to install more than one SAP systems ( ie ERP, BI, EP, CRM ) on the same physical server at the same time. for example on analyst install ERP while at the same time another analyst do EP and so on....  Has anyone done that before and if so are there any issures. ( I put in a SAP note and got the response that this is not supported, but I just wanted to see if anyone had done it anyways )

    Hi Dan,
    Frankly simultaneous installations is not a great idea. There will be an enormous competition for resources. Then you also need to make available ports for carrying out the installations. Next it will involve high amount of coordination
    What of course is more reasonable is the idea of hosting more than one SAP instance on the same physical server though again harware is a very important concern. It includes your hard disk space,memory,CPU and other generic hardware.
    Please award points for useful answers.
    Regards.
    Ruchit.

  • Saving a recording in  memory and in disk at the same time.

    Hi, I record audio and a I want to save it in memory,then when the user presses a stop button I have to save the audio that is in buffer to a directory file. So far I to the first part that is save in memory. Here is some code I use:
    {color:#0000ff}
    class {color:#000000}recording{color} extends {color:#000000}Thread{color}*{*
    * boolean {color:#339966}suspended{color};*
    * public void* {color:#000000}run{color}*(){*
    * try{*
    * while*{color:#000000}(!{color}{color:#339966}*suspended*{color}{color}{color:#000000})
    {color} File *{color:#339966}file{color}*={color:#0000ff}*new*{color} File*{color:#ff9900}("C:/prueba.wav"{color}*);
    ByteArrayOutputStream {color:#339966}*dataCapturada*{color}={color:#0000ff}*new*{color} ByteArrayOutputStream();
    byte *{color:#339966}bufferTemporal{color}*[]={color:#0000ff}*new* {color}byte[10000];
    {color:#0000ff} int {color}numbytesleidos=*{color:#339966}targetDataLine{color}*.read(*{color:#339966}bufferTemporal,{color}*0,{color:#339966}*bufferTemporal.length*{color});
    datacapturada.write*{color:#339966}(bufferTemporal{color}*,0,{color:#339966}*numbytesleidos*{color});
    }{color:#0000ff}*catch*{color}(Exception e){e.printStackTrace()}
    So far,this works perfectly, but i put this line of code to save in directory file after the line:datacapturada.write....
    AudioSyste.write(*{color:#0000ff}new{color}* AudioInputStream({color:#339966}*targetDataLine),*{color}AudioFileFormat.Type.*{color:#339966}WAVE{color}*,*{color:#339966}file{color}*);
    It saves file in the directory file,but doesnt save in memory. Why could this be??

    Ok sorry, as you had seem in other forums, meaning JMF,I decided to record from microphone in WAVE format. This is done, but I also have to show the volume in a progress bar. So I take and example and it works, but this method that calculate volume needs an array of bytes, that is the array that I use for record in memory.So record in memory and show a progress bar volume works, but I also have to save in directory file. My idea is to save in memory and save in file directory at the same time, or save in memory and then when I press a stop button transfer the data saved in memory to the directory file.Here is all the code,assume that all declarations have been done:
    public void capturarAudio() {
           try {        
                formatoAudio = obtenerFormatoAudio();
                DataLine.Info lineaDataInfo = new DataLine.Info(TargetDataLine.class,formatoAudio);
                linea = (TargetDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(lineaDataInfo);
                linea.open(formatoAudio);
                linea.start();
                Thread hiloGrabacion=new Thread(new hiloGrabacion());
                hiloGrabacion.start();
           } catch (LineUnavailableException ex) {
                Logger.getLogger(InformDetail.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    class hiloGrabacion extends Thread{
            byte bufferTemporal[] = new byte[10000];
            File archivo=new File("C:/Documents and Settings/java/multimedia/audio.wav");
            @Override
            public void run(){
                dataCapturada     = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                detenerGrabacion  = false;
                try{
                    while(!detenerGrabacion){
                        int numBytesLeidos=linea.read(bufferTemporal,0 , bufferTemporal.length);
                        if(numBytesLeidos>0){
                            dataCapturada.write(bufferTemporal, 0, numBytesLeidos);
                            mostrarVolumen(bufferTemporal,0,numBytesLeidos);
                            lblCronometro.setText(linea.getMicrosecondPosition()/1000000+"");
                    AudioSystem.write(new AudioInputStream(linea), AudioFileFormat.Type.WAVE, archivo);
                    dataCapturada.close();
                }catch(Exception e){
                    e.printStackTrace();
        }
