After updating to Maverick 10.9.4, all energy saving functionality has vanished from my MacBook Pro. What to do?
I updated to the newest version of Maverick, and nor my MacBook Pro (late 2009) does not follow the energy saving instructions in Systemsettings.They have worked perfectly up until then, and I have made no other changes than updating the OS.
What to do?
Hope somebody can help me out here
Best regards
Peter Kroman
Peter,
I am not quite sure why you are posting this in an iMac forum. However try resetting Disk Permissions using Disk Utility. If that fails do a Safe Boot and also reset the PRAM and SMC. If these fail then please repost in the MacBook Pro forum OR the Mavericks forum.

and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! Luckily he does have music still stored on his iPod, but I can't get it from the library on his iPod back to the phone or to itunes.Please help, but technophobe so put it in simple english please!
Sounds like the music you had on your phone was not the same music on his computer. The iPhone/iPod touch is not designed to be a storage device. When you sync with a computer that doesn't have your music, it deletes your music from your phone.
Was this music you purchased from iTunes? if so, and you are in the US, tap on itunes app, tap updates, tap purchased and tap on the cloud icon to get each song back. If you're not int he us, get iOS5 update later this week and do the same.
But you need to move your itunes library to his computer. Create a user account on his macbook pro for you. From your external drive backup, load your itunes library on it. Then sync as usual! (Don't tell me you don't have a backup for your computer!) -
I purchased a new laptop in August, running Windows 8 and spent hours importing every CD we own (over 300) to my iTunes library in order to get rid of them and declutter a little. I have had to run iTunes in a compatibility mode set for an older version of Windows in order to sync our iPods, as it doesn't work with Windows 8. A pain but not a major problem.....however, this morning I have updated iTunes and everything that hasn't been purchased through the store has now vanished from my library. Can anyone help me find the rest of my music please?
You're welcome.
Take a look at the backup technique I mention for the future.

All iPhones constantly connecting and disconnecting from 2014 MacBook Pro with retina display
So I have an iPhone 6, 4s, and 3gs, whenever I plug any of them into my MacBook pro they rapidly connect and disconnect. After about 20 seconds of doing this they trackpad and keyboard stop responding and won't be recognized until I restart the laptop.
Just as more information I have used 5 or 6 different cables and it works fine with my LG G3 and every other usb device I use. I have iTunes updated to 12.0.1 and OSX updated to 10.10, and this has been happening for about 2 months or so. My iPhone 6 is running 8.1 but did this before, although with the first sync when I first got the phone it worked fine.
Any information would be helpful
Thank youI'm having the exact same issue with the new 2014 iMac 5K Retina i5. iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s both work flawlessly.

How to update OS on my second mac, if my first mac has newer version (both macbook pro 13")
First, I have bought Macbook Pro 13" Late 2011 with Lion installed.
Secondly I have bought Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2012 with Mountain Lion installed.
Now, how can I update my 2011 mac to Mountain Lion if I have it on my 2012 mac?
If I visit AppStore from my 2012 mac it still tells me I have to buy Mountain Lion in order to download it.
PS: I have created bootable USB by restoring its contents using Disk Utility from Recovery HD of my 2012 mac.You'll have to buy Mountain Lion for your 2011 that came with Lion.

Once my iPhone 4 updated the iOS to 7.0.4, it immediately went into Recovery Mode, with the iTunes symbol. I plugged it into my computer, and it says I need to restore the iPhone. I click Restore, but in says it can't connect because of my network connection. I've followed every troubleshooting issue from the support section related that issue, but it STILL won't connect and download the recovery.
What do I do to get my iPhone fixed? And why did 7.0.4 cause this?Don't worry about that. iPhone stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPhone. There are two ways to solve it.
First is is to put your iPhone in DFU mode.
Step 1. Turn off iPhone
Step 2. Hold down the Power and Home button.
Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the Home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.
If DFU mode can't solve the problem, I'm afraid the only solution is to try some 3rd party software, like iPhone data recovery or something like that. You may simply try the tutorial here: How to Fix iPhone that is Stuck in Recovery Mode. -
I recently purchased an iMac and transferred all of my documents, photos etc. from my Macbook Pro. Everything seemed fine until I opened iPhoto and now it seems as if some of my photos are distorted and squished. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
How did you move your iPhoto Library from the old Mac to your new one?
Do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database. -

Are you trying to install a 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows 8?
Which versions of Windows are supported with Boot Camp 5?
64-bit versions of Windows 8 and Windows 7 are supported using the Boot Camp 5 Support Software. If you need to use a 32-bit version, you need to use Boot Camp 4 Support Software, and you must use Windows 7. 32-bit versions of Windows 8 are not supported via Boot Camp.
You can get more info on BootCamp here:

Mac mini 2010 very slow after update to Mavericks
My mac mini 2010 (2.4 Ghz, 8GB ram) is running really very slow after updating to Mavericks.
Clearly OneDrive is a pain... but had it running on ML as well, and though it is a memory and CPU hog, it never really slowed down the system.

After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my apple ID log-in to work again?
Several times I've re-entered my passwords under Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud and it won't save since I've installed Mavericks. Also, the iCloud icon in the left column in Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud is greyed out but allows me to click on it to set-up. When I click on iCloud the password is filled out but the "Enable this account" check-box is not checked. I check it, and all seems correct. The icon is no longer grey, the password is correct, the "activate this account" check-box is checked. Then, when I launch mail, notes etc. I'm still prompted to re-enter my apple ID. The log-in loop continues. For years my keychain has worked perfectly. What has changed in Mavericks?

Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?
Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?
1. Check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.9 or later.
3. You can also try resetting the SMC.
4. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
5. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center. -

Hello all, i'm experiencing a lot of problems after updating to OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 especially with bootcamp.
My bootcamp partition is greyed out in disk utility, access bootcamp, i cant seem to mount it, delete the partition via bootcamp assistant.
I guess something went wrong in bootcamp after updating . i've been looking up all over the net trying to see if there are possible solutions to fix this problem.

Safari hangs after Updating to Mavericks.
Whenever I try to SWIPE(back and forward) between pages in safari, all the trackpad gestures stop working. I cannot even scroll up and down using trackpad. Tried the same in Chrome as well. Witnessed the same issue. But, in Chrome, I can go back to the previous page by clicking on the BACK button. While in Safari, clicking on the back button does not help. I can open and close tabs. but cannot use the trackpad gestures for anything in safari. Kindly help. I have noticed this only after updating to Mavericks. Beforre mavericks, everything was fine.

This is a common situation. Many third-party internet apps/plugins/extensions claim to be compatible with Macs.
And many are not. It's important to remember to check for any updates to this kinds or things prior to upgrade.
At any rate, very happy you've got your problem resolved. -
After updating to Maverick, I have heard there are issues with Imovie 11. I want to know if I should buy it?
Thank you so very much for your reply and help!
I went back to the store where I purchased the Mac and I tell you that was an "experience"!. When I explained the overheating problem they informed me that they could send the Mac for service, they said "after all you do have a warrantee and Apple care".
I live in Sweden, but I´m American and as you mention I was expecting that they would immediately offer a new computer, but instead they want to send my 2 day old computer for service?? Not happy!!
Then when I mention that I could not see my external hard drive via Airport Extreme, the guy said that some HD are not able to be read by the Airport Extreme. That was kind of strange since I been using it to back up the G4 via firewire and never had a problem.
As it did not work with my HD as they had promised, I decided to return the Airport Extreme and buy a Time Machine. Then the salesmen informed me that he would buy the Airport Extreme back for a discount. BUY IT BACK and for a discount?? I had it for 2 days!! Never have heard such a thing in my life!
What was suppose to be a dream come true, is turning into a nightmare, I hate the store would love to just give them back the Mac and just order online from Apple. However I´m afraid they will want to buy it back for a "discount" I just spent 4000 dollars in that store, I get no help and instead they want to make more money out of me without a purchase. Sorry, just so upset!
I managed to fix the trash problem, just took "empty secure" away, according to what I have read, sometimes the fans take a while to "kick in" so I´m waiting for them to "kick in" and yes I will reinstall the system completely and hope that will fix the rest.
Thanks again for the help!
