A2 during boot reset CMOS goes to run set up F1 but nothing happens???

I am really confused with this computer. I booted it the first time got into the bios no problem. Was not ready to do it. So shut the computer back off. Later I am ready to sit down and do it and I get the a A2 message on the bottom of the screen. I pulled the battery cleared the CMOS put it back together and I get the F1 key to go to set up. It goes to set up in the bios is already in the advanced screen stuck on PCI. No way I can get to the main menu. It shows the RAM fine and the CPU fine on the top, but there is no way I can get back to the main menu in the bios. I unplugged all my SATA cables and it does the same thing but it just hangs at the F1 run set up. I hit F1 and nothing happens. I tried to shut off the numeric lock key and nothing happens. It's like the keyboards locked. The only device I still have looked up is the DVD and the msata hard drive. Of coarse I am going to pull that out next. I have built a lot of computers never with one of the new bios, which is a whole different breed of animal. I searched the Internet and this forum and found the A2 was the hard drives, but that was it.
System:
Z 87 – 45 motherboard
4670 K CPU
, RAM GSKILL RIPSHAX X 1866 24MB
MSATA 128 GB crucial SSD drive.
2 SSD crucial 128 GB drives, wanting to run in raid.
1. SATA Western Digital 500 GB raptor.
Any ideas?? I'm STUCK
CHUCK

M500 VTX450-25SAT3-128G Indilinx controller on sata 1 2
M500 CT120M500SSD3 0 128G Marvell controller on MSATA
I still running to the same problem with these unplugged. When I take up the battery cleared the CMOS I can get into the bios but it's not right. I am already in the advanced section of the bios and they can get back to the system status screen.
Thanks so much for your help.

Elements 6 Runs under Vista 64 BUT nothing happens !

Under Vista 64bit OS I have installed the elements 6 software and the installation completed fine. When I start the
program nothing happens. I have inserted an SD card into my PC and the Adobe Photo Autodownloader started OK, so at least part of
the software is working.
I have tried an uninstalled and reinstall but this makes no difference. If I open the program, nothinghappens. The process appears in Task Manager as running Photoshop Element 6.0.exe but the application does not start. Aside from the entry in the Task Manager there is no sign of the application actually running.
I have an open problem with Adobe but so far they have sent one suggested fix that was for a different application on a different operating system ! Plus one suggested fix that was for a different problem !
Has anyone seen this and/or can provide any suggestions.
Any help would be very much appreceated. !

Hi,
Thanks for this suggestion . I have tried this twice but it does not seem to make any difference so I still have the problem where nothing happens when I run the application.
Not sure if anyone else has this issure.
Adobe support suggested this as well (a few hours after yourself).
Any other suggestions out there ?

Check the file reports.log created in the working directory

Pavilion G2-b27SA Laptop Won't Boot - Fan Whirs and Hard Disk Light Comes On but Nothing Else

Hi
My Pavilion G2-b27SA laptop won't boot. The fan whirs, the hard disk and wirless lights come on but nothing happens on-screen and the fan goes quiet after a couple of seconds (to a low whir).
I've gone through and tried the solutions in this thread - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-e-g-Windows-8/Laptop-will-not-turn-on/td-p/102825 - with no luck. Specifically, I've tried a hard reset and hitting F10 when the laptop tries to boot. Neither has had any effect.
Is there anything else I can try to get the computer working again? If I take it to a laptop repair shop (I'm out of warranty) will they be able to do anything, or is it effectively dead now?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The laptop can always be fixed if you have a bottomless wallet. On a no-start with flashing lights it is likely the motherboard and a motherboard replacement if you have the shop buy the board and bill you for labor will be about $300 give or take 25%. Before we give up, it could be bad memory or a few other less expensive things. Assuming they do not charge too much just to diagnose it; take it to the shop.

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace

during operation iphone must be turned off. time of heating is near five minutes. wifi module is located upper the battery, on the upper right corner of device.

I am having problems shutting down my MacBook Pro. I go to the apple and click shutdown or restart, it appears the shutdown process starts, the screen goes blue and the little circle keeps going round and round, but nothing happens even after 30 minutes.

Make sure you quit all your applications before shutting down.
And try resetting the SMC.

Generally, when going out of the country and using a foreign SIM, carrier files can be changed. Go to Settings>General>About>and look at Carrier? What does it say? You may have to perform a restore. You can try a restore from a backup, that would reinstall the iOS, and would provide the latest AT&T carrier file as well. See if this will fix the problem.

I am trying to INSTALL the free trials of AI and PS when I click on the link to install it goes to another page says installing but nothing is happening. I have the FREE TRIAL Creative Cloud Membership.

I am getting very frustrated with this. When I try to install the Creative Cloud thing it asks me to pay even though it says try for free.

Hi Mirrormonolith,
Please try the following steps assuming its a MAC:
1) Open Activity monitor and Force quit Adobe CEF Helper, Creative cloud, Adobe IPC Broker & Crash Deamon if available.
2) Try to open, if doesn't work then go to Applications>> Adobe Creative cloud>> Right click>> Get Info>> Click on the Add sign>> Select the user you are logged in>> Give Read and write access.
3) If that doesn't work then enable the root user and launch to update there, check this link on how to enable/sign in to root user Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
Please let me know of that worked.

I am locked out of my computer (macbook air) I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it. I put in a new password, and now it doesnt let me log in anymore. Command R doesnt work, all i hear is a sound, but nothing happens.

I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it (becuase it kept shutting down and not turning back on).
I put in a new password because i needed to start over from factory settings, but now it doesnt let me log in anymore. (I don't know if this is because it doesnt accpet my password, or I forgot my password in less than 5 minutes, or because when i typed in my new password, i typed it in wrong twice)
Command R doesnt work, all i hear is a sound, but nothing happens.

What I don't understand is why it is rejecting a password I am creating.
Perhaps the password you are creating is too short, or has characters that are not allowed, or is not secure enough because it is a word in a dictionary.
FileVault may have standards for what it considers an acceptable password. If the password is part of the 128-bit encryption scheme, it might have to be 16 characters, for example. (Don't know if that is true, but it's a possibility.) Check your documentation for password requirements.

I paid for lion because my 2006 mac pro will not run anything newer (arbitrary decision by apple). Downloaded it, but nothing happened. App Store now says i've already downloaded it, so I can't try again. App store also says lion isn't available in usa.

I found out that an 06 mac pro cannot be updated to anything more recent than lion. They guys at the local shop told me this after they tried to update it for me so I could run logic pro 9 in 64 bit mode. I bought lion. Waited two days for the emails. Spent hours following the instructions which sounded so simple until you try them. Finally I found the "redeem" button that was hidden because the size of my safari window was too small to show it and there was no bar at the bottom to scroll over. Without googling "how do you find the app store" and "how do you find quick links" I never would have figured it out. I only mention this so that others may learn from my mistakes. Finally I downloaded lion, supposedly, but nothing happened. There is no indication that anything downloaded, other than the fact that when I try to download it again, it says it's already been downloaded. I spent four hundred bucks at the shop updating, plus whatever they charged me for lion, and I've still got snow leopard and logic pro running at 32 bits. I'm pretty sure nobody can help me, but could you please arrange for the return of my time?

You can go to "Purchases" tab and check again.
If OS X Lion is still not downloading, try at a different network environment.
By the way, Mac Pro (2006) with a newer graphics card runs Mavericks perfectly with modifications in the installer.
It's not allowed to be discussed here, but you can simply google how to do it.

HT204406 I can't seem to download songs from iTumes Match on my new iPhone 5. It still works fine on my iPad. Both are running ios6 and there is plenty of free space on the phone (20 GB or so). The download icon shows & flashes but nothing happens.

I am trying to play songs from iTunes Match on my phone everything is enabled. The songs and playlists show up but when I select one it won't download or play. The download status icon next to the song name flashes on and off but nothing happens. When I go to the iTunes Store the download section shows the same behavior - it flashes that there is 1 download continuously but nothing downloads. My iPad on the same network also running ios6 works fine. Any ideas?

Problem closed (although not resolved). After working with Apple support, no resolution was found. I asked for a refund of the iTunes match purchase price, which was granted. Interestingly the support tech, who was very nice if not particularly helpful from a technical point of view, spun the "resolution" of refunding my iTunes match purchase price as a positive one, here is a quote from the final email
"I'm glad to hear that you're not having issues with the songs you've purchased. Nothing makes Apple happier than to hear that our customers concerns have been rectified."
It is notable that I never had an issue downloading music directly purchased thru the iTunes store, the only issue that existed was downloading songs that I ripped from my CD collection and "matched".
I'm happy that I received my money back, however I wish that the iTunes Match service worked for me (I was looking forward to this service). I'm most upset at the time I wasted trying to fix this problem.
I'll now download music the old fashioned way: syncing with iTunes directly.

Home screen is completely frozen on my Apple TV. I tried to reset and the light blinks but nothing happens after that. Any suggestions?

Unplug the device from power and plug it back in.
If it still fails to respond properly, connect it to a computer via microUSB and restore via iTunes.
