  • I am trying to reinstall Mac OSX, but my computer does not read installation cd

    Hello, I am trying to reinstall Mac OSX, but my computer does not read installation cd. After restart, I hold C but either eject cd or doesn't read and computer boots up normally. I even ordered a new pack of installation cd, but still the same problem. Is there anybody can help me fixing this issue, because my Macbook pro has lots of software problem and when I spoke to tech, they said it needs to reformat and reinstall the OSX to solve all my problems. Please help me to reinstall my OSX!

    Possible solutions:
    You need to hold the c key down before booting
    You need to use the built in keyboard, you have other hardware connected
    You need the machine specific 10.6.4+ disks for that machine, the retail 10.6.3 disks won't work
    There is a firmware password on the machine preventing the at boot key command functions
    Try the option key for Startup Manager to boot from the disk, right after the "bong"
    Your Superdrive lense is dirty or not operating, other hardware issues
    You have malware of some sort

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn 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 device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • My imac is not recognizing any external dvd writer drive. I have imac with Core i7 and Mac OS 10.6.8. I have tried external dvd writers from Samsung and Amazon Essentials but the computer does not recognize any of them. Which Dvd writer is compatible?

    I have an external firewire burner; it never shows on the desktop unless I insert a CD or DVD - that icon will then show (if I have my preferences set to show those on the desktop). Hae you checked in Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) to see if it is listed under drives?

  • Connecting to Time Capsule via ethernet but my computer does not have an IP address

    I'm connected to internet w/Airport TC.
    I want to connect via ethernet for fast and stable backup. When I connect the ethernet cable what I see is "The cable for Ethernet is connected, but your computer does not have an IP address". I don't want to mess up with my connection. What should I do?

    Thanks for your response Bob, I found a way to resolve my issue.
    I'm connecting to internet via wireless modem. TC is connected to that wireless modem via wired ethernet connection and functions as a router - I guess - so our Apple devices connect to the network.
    I had disabled WiFi earlier, since I wanted to connect to TC via ethernet. I realized I somehow needed to have the connection re-enabled WiFi but change the connection order, so ethernet is at the top of the list.
    It might have been some other things I did, like trying to imitate config samples I found on the net by typing 255.255.255.0 and 192.something.something.0...etc.
    Not sure exactly what made it work, but eventually, I believe I managed to connect and transfer many gigs of data over to TC with ethernet but it still took soooooo long.
    Thanks,

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Have you already confirmed that you trust the computer?
    Launch iTunes, then connect your iPhone to the computer.
    When prompted, confirm that you trust the computer.

    Did you already try another USB cable or USB port?
    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?

  • TS1363 iTunes recognizes my iPod but my computer does not.  Is there a solution for this?

    When I plug my iPod Nano into my computer, iTunes recognizes it, but my computer does not so I am not able to sync it.  I have turned my iPod off before plugging it into my computer, but that doesn't seem to help.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I haven't had this issue until about 2 weeks ago and the only thing I've done within the last two weeks was upgrade to the latest iTunes.
    I appreciate your help!

    I figured out why my iPod wouldn't sync.  I must have previously changed my "Sync Music" setting to "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres".  Once I changed that setting to "Entire music library", my iPod was able to sync successfully.

  • I would like to run the most secure version of firefox on my computer, but my computer does not meet the system requirements for the latest version

    i would like to run the most secure version of firefox on my computer, but my computer does not meet the system requirements for the latest version. is there a way i can have the security of firefox 8 and still be able to run it on my old computer. i currently an running firefox 3.6. it is a bit slow, but it is functional.

    Currently Firefox 3.6.24 is as secure as Firefox 8.0.1 is. Firefox 3.6.x will continue to get security updates until next spring, although the exact date hasn't yet been determined.
    Which of the system requirements are you lacking? <br />
    Processor wise you're stuck with what you got, but RAM can be upgraded. WinXP is still supported in all versions of Firefox and will be continued to be supported until Windows drops support for WinXP sometime in 2014.

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if it that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear and it will boot up.
    If that doesn’t fix it then have you got a different cable, and possibly charger, that you could try ?

  • My Airport Express is green, but my computer does not find it on a scan.  I have used it before, but it just stopped working.

    My Airport Express is green, but on a scan, my computer does not find it.  I normally use it to play music from my Itunes to my house stereo speakers, and the icon shows up in itunes.  it stopped working and now my computer does not recognize it.  Help!!!  I hate listening to music on small speakers.

    Hello there Karen,
    It sounds like you are having to power cycle your modem to get internet back every single day. We can start by troubleshooting your Airport Express to help isolate the issue. I would first perform a Soft Reset, then test the issue again. If needed as a last resort I would then perform a Hard Reset:
    Soft reset
    Connect the device to power and wait for it to complete its start up process. To learn more about the start up process, please see All about Wi-Fi base station Status Lights (LED).
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip for 1 full second, then release it. The light (LED) will begin flashing amber, indicating that the device is in soft reset mode.
    From the AirPort menu bar item, choose the network created by the device (the network name does not change).
    Open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station, then click Edit (The Edit window will indicate that the base station is in Soft Reset mode).
    Move through the tabs to make changes to your passwords or other settings as needed, and click Update and Continue as required
    Quit AirPort Utility.
    Hard reset
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
    Release the button and the device will reset.
    Wait about a minute for the base station to finish restarting, then open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station from Other Wi-Fi Devices, then click Edit.
    Select the Other Options button.
    Select "Restore previous settings" and click Next until you get to the final window.
    AirPort Utility will indicate that Setup is complete. Click Done.
    Quit AirPort Utility.

  • Must have OS 10.6.5 to be compatible to the iphone 5 but the computer does not recognize the device

    I downloaded OS X 10.6.5 in order to sync my new iphone 5 to my mac.  After doing so the computer does not recognize the iphone.  I switched the backup from iCloud to sync to the computer when plugged in but nothing happens.

    If the Software Update application is not in your Applications folder, then apparently you've inadvertently done away with it. Downloading and installing the standalone Combo Update, as the previous poster has suggested, may install a new copy of it. If it doesn't, you can reinstall it from your original OS installer DVD using Pacifist:

  • I have a mac book pro.  It is 3 years old.  when I push the button to turn on the computer, it does not start.  The little light comes on, but the computer does not start up

    I have a macbook pro.  It is three years old.  It has been working perfectly fine.  However, as of yesterday, whenever I push the "on" button, the computer does not turn on.  The little light comes on indicating that the computer has started, but there is nothing on the computer screen, and it does not make the usually noise that it makes when it cycles on. 
    Any suggestions?

    Check the battery status to make sure it has a full charge (and that the charger is working). Then make sure the screen backlight is turned up.
    If the backlight is up then, try forcing the machine to shutdown (hold the power button for 5 - 10 seconds).  Then restart the computer(listen for the start up chime).
    If the computer does start up and you still cannot see anything reset the PRAM by forcing the machine to shut down (hold power button as before), then press the power button and start holding the key combo
    <Command>+<Option>+p+r
    until you hear the start up chime two or three times, then release the keys and allow to boot

  • TS1369 My iPod classic displays the apple logo, then shows a large red "X". I have repeated the list of steps several times, but my computer does not recognize the iPod. Does this mean my iPod will not work again?

    My computer will "wait for the iPod", then begin to prepare it for recovery, but the process does not follow through. I've tried a few procedures to reset my iPod, and connect it to the PC, but even with repeating them, it fails. What must I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
