7790 beeping and wont start up

my m7790y recently moved across the country in my car. now on start-up i get the short beep - long beep code which apparently is some sort of memory problem.  I've seen posts about 'reseating  memory module'.  pretend I don't know what that means, and tell me how I do this.  any other suggestions about what to try would be welcomed as well.  i've tried restarting it with everything else disconnected but still get the short-long beep. i vacuumed out what dust i  could access also.

To reseat the memory you simply remove it then reinsert it. You will see a clip at each end of the memory slot. Push down on the clip to eject the memory. To reinstall simply press the memory stick down into the slot until the clip pops back up in place, locking the memory.
The photo here shows the memory slots-with no memroy installed- at top right side of motherboard. Notice the white clips at each end of the slot.

  • My ipod is displying apple logo and wont start up, hard reset leaves it the same, disc mode works but iTunes doesnt "see" it even if the computer does.

    "My ipod is displaying apple logo and wont start up, hard reset leaves it the same, disc mode works but iTunes doesn't "see" it even if the computer does."
    It worked two days ago fine, for two years, until I installed this newest iTunes update, then for one day it kept on freezing and going to apple logo screen mode, then today it only goes to that screen and wont start up at all.
    I've tried the hold down two buttons hard reset, that doesn't help. I've tried disc mode... but iTunes doesn't "see" it even if the computer does.
    This is a pristine ipod, never exposed to adverse conditions, never dropped, never wet, and it worked perfectly two days ago.
    Can I factory reset it somehow? (considering itunes can't "see" it)
    [Ipod classic 160gb less than two years old.]

    Looks like I might have found the solution on a youtube comment:
    R.O:
    "Plug into you laptop first, whichever set up you use that has iTunes, i know it won't read it, don't even open iTunes as of yet. Do the typical reboot "Menu +Center button at the same time" and hold it, DONT LET IT GO like we were told, when the apple pops up.. KEEP HOLDING IT it will make a new ding sound I've never heard before. and since its hooked to you laptop already an error message pops up and says apple will need to download something to repair your iPod. I when u see that that when i let reboot buttons go. hit ok on the laptop something downloads for like 20 seconds then the iTunes icon hops around when you open it it has a screen with an iPod classic on it and says "Software version blah blah, iTunes will check for an update on such n such date" AND FINALLY there's a "Restore" button. click that and you will be back to square one with your iPod. Renaming , adding all the music on it, but it will work again, finally. "
    I had to do it twice, because my mac froze the first time, but its recognized it now and is downloading the software as we speak...
    Now I've clicked the restore button and it's restoring... I'll post again if its a success, otherwise assume failure.

  • Iphone stuck with apple symbol and wont start up

    i updated my iphone and when it finished and went to reboot it just stays stuck on the apple symbol it constantly reboots and will never connect to my laptop i dont know what to do if anyone can help please do

    Hi,
    Luca224 & Ingo2711. Thanks for bringing this topic. on 29th Nov. I faced the same problem on my iPhone 3GS 32GB Firmware 3.1.2, iPhone stuck with apple symbol and wont start up. I have tried with 10 Seconds Sleep/wake-up button + home button to reset. But didn't work. Did google about an hour with many blogs. Finally I made a call to 3 iPhone care and spent 30 minutes and explained whatever I have done; iPhone customer care asked me to go to nearby iPhone service center in Sydney. BUT BY LUCK CLICKED ON iTUNE AND GOT THE OPTION FOR ONLINE FORUM FOR APPLE iPHONE. Many many thanks to Ingo2711 who has given the solution link and also thanks to Luca224 , who raised the issue. I feel, this is a common problem with iPhones those who using iPhone 3GS 3.1.2...... but try the link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and thanks to Luca224 & Ingo2711. PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION CAREFULY:
    1. Verify you have iTunes 7.5 or later. Apple recommends using the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    3. Power off the device (Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the the iPhone or iPod touch to turn off. _+(in my case - red slider didn't appear, but i pressed the Sleep/Wake button until the iPhone went off, finally it was just off... i was frustrated... tried 3 times with more patience )+_
    4. Press and hold the Home button while reconnecting the USB cable to iPhone. When you reconnect the USB to iPhone, the device should then power on. +_( Do exactly as it says)_+
    Note: If you see the message "Charging... Please Wait" or you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least 10 minutes to ensure the battery has some charge and then start with step 2 again. +_(True ... for me it happened 3 times)_+
    5. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. +_( I was nearly frustrated at my 3rd attempet; my thumb was hurting as I was holding the home button for few minutes..... but finally it worked yahooooooooooooooooo...... suddenly changed my decision.... about going to 3/Apple service center)_+
    6. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message:
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, then disconnect the USB cable from iPhone and repeat steps 3-6.
    Because you must restore iPhone or iPod touch, iTunes will not recover data from the device, but if it was previously synced on the same computer and the same user account, it should restore a backup (if available). See document HT1414, "Updating and Restoring iPhone Software."
    If you are still unable to restore the iPhone using this method, check Apple support for further troubleshooting and/or service options.
    Note: If you sync both an iPhone and an iPod touch to the same computer, make sure you select the correct backup to restore your settings from (don't select an iPhone backup if you have an iPod touch and don't select an iPod touch backup if you have an iPhone).
    **** ( BACKUP FROM YOUR iTUNES : MAC/PC; AS I GOT MY 95% DATA FROM THERE.... GOOD LUCK)******* IF IT WORKS PLEASE POST YOUR EXPERIENCE....*
    THANKS

    lllaass thank u bro, but none worked for me
    i have tried all these methods n above which i mentioned before....
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    in the end i went ot market n paid him 1.94$ and he restored it to 6.1.5... and said apple has closed other ios updation except 6.1.5 ...but still thank u soo much learned some new stuff from u...

    Someone please help!!!!

    I know this isn't what you really want to hear but I'd recommend taking it in to an authorized repair location or your local Apple Store to get the Superdrive repaired or replaced so you can do an install? I don't believe you will be able load from your Dad's Window's machine. However you might be able to from an external DVD drive.
    Also I might recommend getting a UPS so if you have similar issues you will have enough power to do a proper shutdown.

  • Loud beeping and no start up on MacBook. Please help

    After taking apart my MacBook today to try figure out a screen connection problem, I go to turn my MacBook back on and all I get is a repetitive loud beep 5 seconds apart and no start up. I have tried rebooting ram and re-seating it but still nothing. Please help!

  • Macbook Pro starts, chimes, goes black and then restarts - continues like this and wont start

    I have been meaning to change my battery on my computer as it is completely dead and wont charge when plugged in. So this might be a problem but it is plugged into the adapter and it has been working fine the last few weeks, but all of a sudden this problem occured:
    I accidentally unplugged my computer before shutting it down and it switched off automatically. When I tried to turn it on it would start, the chime sound could be heard a grey screen with the apple would appear for a couple of seconds and then the screen would go black and the computer would try to reboot again and the chime would sound and then go black and restart again, chime would play etc. It continues like this and wont do anything else. I can open the computer in safemode without a problem. Is this just a battery problem (even though it is plugged into the charger)? or do I have a hardware problem.
    Also if I try to restart the SMC will this delete everything on my harddrive? I havent backed up everything and I dont have the means to back up (using safemode) at the moment. \Please help if you can. I am in a desperate situation at the moment.

    Given that it runs in Safe Mode, a reinstall may be overkill. But what the heck! A nuclear bomb CAN be successfully used to kill a mosquito...
    Recovery Mode == Command R
    Safe Mode == Shift

  • My laptop beeps and wont come on

    My laptop beeps 3 times consecutively and wont turn on. Help?

    You most likely have a problem with the RAM. It may be bad , or not seated properly. You should bring it in to an Apple Genius bar, the diagnosis is free. Re-seat it and they have tools to test for faulty RAM.They will then tell you your options.

  • My imac is stuck at the loading screen and wont start up...

    My 2006(ish) Intel core 2duo 2.16 mhz 20"  imac wont start up, it only stays at the loading screen, how can i fix this?

    Since you purchased your iMac long before the Lion OS was released your system should have come with a set of DVD's that can be used to reinstall the OS and applications. If you can locate those disks then stick the Install DVD into the optical drive, then power on the system while holding down the option key. Your system should boot with a menu showing the bootable volumes. After a few seconds you should hear the optical drive whirr and then see the Install DVD appear in the menu. Select the Install DVD and boot the system. Once booted you will have to select your language. Normally this disk is used to reinstall the OS, however for this exercise I would like you to pull down the Utilities menu in the menu bar and select Disk Utility. You can use the Disk Utility to check whether your hard drive is OK. If it fails the SMART (Self Monitoring Analysis, and Reporting Technology) status then you will need to replace the hard drive. You should also run the 'Verify Disk' and 'Repair Permissions' options if the SMART status indicates the drive is passing.
