After updating ram and to SSD hard drive bluetooth no longer works

Updated my two sets of hynix 2GB ram to two sets of Crucial 4GB ram (8GB total), and then also installed a Samsung 1TB SSD hard drive.
Now my Bluetooth does not recognize any devices at all.
I'm using a Mid-2010 Macbook Pro 17" 2.53 ghtz on the most recent version of Mavericks.
(In order to update to the SSD drive, I inserted the blank drive, formatted it using my install discs, then did an internet OS install of Mavericks, and used Migration Assistant to import all my old data. Everything else is working perfectly fine.)

I do not know what happened, but try resetting the SMC (might help, cannot hurt).

Do you have any ideas why Motion 5 would run slow on a computer? I have an Imac with 8Gigs of ram, and plenty of hard drive space, but it still gives me the beach ball when I add a few lights and effects. I'm at the end of my rope.

You probably don't really need 1080 at 60 for your finished projects but since you're just starting out with Motion, you need to lower your expectations. A long way. 1080 is about 2 million pixels per frame, DV is only about 400,000. That's not just five times as many pixels for the Mac to track; everything in video is exponential.
Explore the training tutorials available by Mark Spencer. You will get an idea of how his super powerful machine reacts with the software.
Adding a light roughly doubles the processing time over flat scenes. Two lights increases processing again. Reflections require processing the lights and then calculating the reflections so add another quarter of the time required for flat scenes. Add camera movement, motion blur, and depth of field and you need exponentially more processing time for every frame. The preload of renders into RAM is one of the cooler features of Motion, as comapred to After Effects, but that takes tons of time, to.
Try working in ye olde DV resolution for a few days. Get to know the software's limitations and what gets imposed by your Macintosh. Step up to 720p/30 and see how things slow down.

Can my Pavilion dv8000 run 2g of ram and dual 250gb hard drives?

I have a older HP Pavilion dv8000 that has been wiped and reloaded at least 4 times because my son thinks all web sites are safe, and I want to know if it will handle 2 gig of ram and dual 250gb hard drives with the processor that it runs on, it currently has 1 gig ram and a 160gb hard drive, or do I throw it in the trash and buy a new one?? The 17 in screen is perfect but my son loaded Windows 7 on it and now it will barely run at all, it had XP but his "computer wiz buddy" said this will make it run just great. WRONG, so I need to start over. Any suggestions other than when or if I get it fixed to keep my son away from it.

The dv8000 series covers a lot of territory...most are single core centrinos but some are core duos...some are single core AMD processors. It was not a real poular model and I do not see a lot of them, but always thought they are pretty well made and robust. To me a dual core processor is the minimum requirement for a useable computer these days. If it is in fact a single core I would abandon it and buy a new one if you can afford it. But even the single core would be OK for light use if there is no other option. I recommend XP be installed on it, but some of them have a video system that can handle Windows 7 OK. Yes it can be upgraded to 2 gigs of RAM and you can install 2 x 250 gig hard drives. It uses DDR2 memory and if I recall correctly some are PATA hard drives and some are SATA hard drives so you have to see what you have before you order a replacement. They evolved quite a bit over their lifespan. If you can give us the full model number from the tag on the bottom of the laptop we can provide more knowledgeable help.

Hello, I changed my Imac hard drive which no longer worked. I installed a hard drive
Western Digital 500 GB 7200 rpm SATA3 WD5002AALX 32M Black. Sometimes I see the hard disk in the utility on the Starter CD, but access seems very slow. By cons when I want
install OS X 10.4.2 on the hard drive, I do not see the disk. What is the problem?

Thanks for the help
I started on the installation CD OS X 10.4.2, I used Disk Utility
to partition the disk according to the document that you have proposed. unfortunately
I have not succeeded. When I partition the disk, even if I called it Macintosh HD, it
does not keep the name and it shows disk0s3 instead. I did an erase on disk.
When I mount the disk it tells me that I must repair. When I tried to repair, I got
the following message:
Volume check failed
The underflying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
1 volume could not be repaired because of an error.
I also had a message:
Invalid b-tree node size.
Note: The disc is new, but it has already been formatted on a computer Imac 27 inch 2011 OS X Lion.
I used a USB 2.0 to SATA cable to adjust the formatting.
What to do to fix it?

After updating Firefox and Java, Firefox gets stuck loading,will not work, and I have to use End Now to exit it.

I started to have problems after I updated Firefox and then I did a Java update, hoping this would help. Firefox will not finish loading, it gets stuck, I cannot go to websites with it, it is stuck. Then when I try to close it down, I get the message that it is not responding and I have to use" End Now". I am having to use Internet Explorer as my browser, which works fine. My computer is a six year old quite feeble PC with a 37GB hard drive with only about 5GB of available space left.

Yes, you will lose all your data stored on the sync server if you reset the sync (recovery) key.
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved
Is the password manager working properly?
You can find the sync password and the sync key in the password manager on the computer where you originally created that sync account (email).

Look for:

External Hard Drive is no longer working

Hello. I have had a external hard drive for about 4 months now and it had been working fine. I have my iPhoto library on it along with all things related to my films that i make. After seeing some problems with iPhoto i upgraded to Aperture. I had to rebuild the library because something was wrong with it but after i did that, it loaded in Aperture fine and i was able to use it. I then verified and repaired my external disk, in the sake on making sure everything was okay. i then turned my computer off and went to bed. The next day when i tried to open the library, i couldn't open becuase the library was "locked." after i while, i realized that the entire disk had become "read only." after trying to fix it for the past couple of days by looking into forums and using terminal and exerything, nothing has worked. Now, the disk cannot verify on repair at all, and i still can't change it at all. This disk is very important, and I don't use Time Machine or have a backup. I was going to set it up, but that was the day that i found that is was locked. I would love some help so please try and help me find the problem so we can fix it thank you!
PS i have noticed the disk is a NTFS, but it has been that since i started using it. and it is a Seagate Free Agent Go Flex Drive 1.5tb.
Thanks again
nic

Hi,
Apple doesn't supply a read/write driver for NTFS with any of its operating systems. Are you using a third-party NTFS driver, such as the one supplied by Paragon? If so, that's likely the source of the problem. If not, then something strange is going on, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it…

After updating Firefox to version 16.0.1, it no longer works in conjunction with "Proxifier"...

Hi,
I'm using Firefox on Windows XP professional x64 SP2.
I also use a program called "Proxifier" which directs all traffic from my computer to the Internet and vice versa through a proxy server and does the name resolution through proxy DNS not system DNS. Before updating my Firefox to v. 16.0.1, everything was working fine: Firefox connections were made through "Proxifier" and all the connections made by Firefox were shown in Proxifier's window.
But after updating Firefox, traffic from Firefox does not pass through Proxifier and in other words Firefox opens websites if I disable Proxifier. THIS IS NOT THE CASE WITH Internet Explorer which works fine and its traffic is directed through Proxifier as usual.
I did an extensive search through Google for a solution, and most relevant results suggest that it may have something to do with messed up LSP_CATEGORIES:
link: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621320
and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636088
Anyway, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and Proxifier, resetting Firefox, resetting winsocks catalog (netsh int ip reset - netsh winsock reset) several times and tried the relevant suggestions in this link: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating?esab=a&as=aaq
Also tried installing previous versions of Firefox such as v. 13 or 3.6.28 but the problem exists with these versions as well.
Unfortunately nothing has worked so far. I'm really puzzled since Internet Explorer is working fine with Proxifier and this problem with Firefox appeared only after updating it.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Regards

hello, you probably have to set-up firefox to use a proxy to connect to the web: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/settings-network-updates-and-encryption#w_network-tab

After updating to Firefox 3.6.13 saved passwords no longer work

Prior to updating to 3.6.13 saved usernames and passwords worked as they should (those fields were automatically filled in). Now after installing 2.6.13 most saved login info will not fill in upon entering the web site. I can go to tools, options, security, saved passwords and all are still listed, yet do not work. I have deleted a couple thinking Firefox would then ask to save login data for that same site, but it doesn't. I tried reverting back to my previous version of 3.5.16 bur saved passwords will no longer work there either.
It seems as if Firefox doesn't see the saved info.

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

After updating to Version 29.0.1, high contrast no longer works.

I use Windows 7's High Contrast frequently (it is much easier on my eyes). After Firefox updated to Version 29.0.1, the browser no longer displayed web pages in high contrast (white text on black background). Is there a way to fix this? (I am now back to using Version 28, which works correctly)

Firefox 28 exposes your system to security vulnerabilities.
* https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
You can override website colors under Options → Content → Colors.
* [[Accessibility features in Firefox - Make Firefox and web content work for all users]]
I don't recommend it though. That also hides background images, which some sites use to display information that's essential to navigation. There are two methods that are preferable to the above:
'''Method 1'''
# Install the NoSquint add-on.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
# Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
# Next to the NoSquint entry, click the Options button.
# Click the Colors tab. Check whatever options you're interested and set the colors, but make sure "Disable background images" remains unchecked.
'''Method 2'''
# Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
# Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
# In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
# Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the either of the following styles in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.
#* You can then toggle the style on or off by clicking the Stylish icon on the toolbar.

Are the songs that you are trying to play grayed out in your playlists?
I had this problem after upgrading to iOS 5, and I found that deleting all the songs from my device and re-syncing them fixed the problem.
To do this:
1. Attach your iOS device (either using the cable or to the same wi-fi network if using iTunes Wi-Fi Sync).
2. Open iTunes, and click on your iOS device.
3. Click on the Music tab.
4. Uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top.
5. When asked, click "Don't Sync Music".
6. Sync the iOS device. Your songs will be removed from the device.
7. Check the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top once again.
8. Sync the iOS device again, and your songs will be re-added.
I don't know why the upgrade made some songs unreadable, but the resync fixed the problem for me (I had to do this for each of my iOS devices after upgrading them all to iOS 5). Fortunately, I only had 1,000 songs, so the resync didn't take forever.
Hope this helps!

I have a brand new Mac Mini (July 2014) with 16 GB RAM and 1 TB hard drive and I typed in my screen saver password today and it froze up. Had to push the power switch and restart the computer. Why, and what can I do to prevent this?

It shouldn't crash just because I type in my screen saver password. But it did. I had to push the power button to shut it down and turn it back on.

Freezes happen occasionally. Hard to pinpoint a cause. I wouldn't let it worry you as they are rare. If this happens often then post back as there may be something wrong.

After updating Firefox to version 12.0, I can no longer get my web-based help desk software to follow hyperlinks.

Our help-desk is internal, secure website. We have used Firefox for our help desk software browser since we purchased the software. But after updating to version 12, clicking on a hyperlink no longer works but only for the help desk software. Pre-version 12 works fine. External sites are fine. IE executes the help-desk software fine. There is no error, it just never executes the hyperlink. It's like they're text. Where can I start looking? We'd prefer not to go to IE, but we are using it now to get by.

SSD Hard Drive NOT updating free disk space!!

So I keep encountering the same problem. The problem is that when I delete items or otherwise empty my trash bin the SSD Hard Drive does not recognize and update the disk space I have just freed. I deleted over 30GB of data and my computer still believes that it only has 3GB remaining and I cannot install new software. I have tried both restarting and shutting down the machine. I feel stuck and now Apple Care is closed...
PLEASE help me if you can. This is extremely frustrating.
Thanks

*UPDATE*
I downloaded both "Maintenance" and "OmniDiskSweeper" programs to aid my efforts of recovering my disk space.
I am currently utilizing FileVault. I thought there might be a chance that this was causing the problem... I am unable to deactivate it due to low disk space.
The OmniDiskSweeper is telling me:
User -- 3.1 GB free, 222.3GB used, 225.4GB total
SSD -- 3.1 GB free, 109.3 GB used, 112.7 GB total
Is there something strange here? My SSD is only 128GB in size yet my User(FileVault) is reading as 225.4GB in size. I'm confused.
I might have to wait until morning to fix this with Apple... Unless you know how!

I recently put an an SSD hard drive and now whenever I open my computer to Safari or Apple homepage or any site- it says I am offline for about a minute- why?

I recently had an SSD hard drive installed when my original one died. Now whenever I open my Mac book Pro- it says my computer is offline for about a minute then it connects to my Apple.com homepage. Any suggestions? I use Mavericks.

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
