  • What is this code mean, ( 14 slow blinking lights and 5 fast blinking lights) mean

    need to know what this means please, 14 slow blinking lights and 5 fast blinking lights) mean

    thank you thank you for taking an interest. this is so frustrating.
    i only have apple keyboard, mighty mouse, and 20 inch cinema display connected. this morning took out memory and tried to boot up with individual pairs in the first bank. first the (2)256, the (2) 1g, and then the other (2) 1g modules. everytime I get the weird fuzzy wheel under the logo after a while, black screen flashes, then grey apple logo fuzzy screen then black forever.
    I ran tiger updates this morn. still will only boot to safe mode. then tried to run leopard disk to install it
    will not boot from leopard disk.
    tried safe boot, then doulble click install leopard, restart, then the saga repeats with the pixely red square around the wheel.
    these are fresh drives with only what came on instll disk loaded.
    thanks again for taking an interest.
    i love this system(well at least i did). I want to install leopard on my powerbook too but am terrified to do so right now since it is working and I have work to do. Can't afford to have no computer to do my work on...self employment is great?!
    This is making me crazy. I anxiously await your words of wisdom.

  • Fast blinking light! What does it mean?

    The other day I shut down my computer. (Intel iMac matte screen, 10.4.11) Later, when I pushed the restart button, I failed to get a bong & the sleep light started blinking rapidly & bright. For a number of times I held down the restart button to get it to shut down, & then pressed it again to restart...same blinking light. (I've never seen this behavior before) I managed to finally get it to restart by double clicking on the restart button, but I don't even know why I tried that.
    Anyone know what's up?

    Hi Bob
    That sounds like a ram problem!

    Perhaps one of your modules has dislodged and need to be reseated, or is failing.
    1. Try reinstalling-reseating both modules, firmly pushing on each one with both thumbs then close the ejector clips.
    2. Then if it still acts funny, try installing one module at a time.

    after finish installing an update, the the status light keeps blinking and a picture of the connection between the micro USB and iTunes shows up - what is this about?

    The update failed - using a USB to microUSB lead (that Apple annoyingly don't include!), try to restore the AppleTV software to current version software using instructions here:

    Pay attention to differences in power connection depending on whether or not you have AppleTV2 or AppleTV 3.

  • Light fast blinking on cartridge. How long can I keep printing. Will it harm my printer?

    I have a Canon MX882 using cartridges 226.  Most times we have extra cartridges, but on occasion, an ink cartridge has started fast blinking before I can purchase new and what I am printing I need done.  The print is still good, clear, dark. I have gone approximately 30 pages over and ink still not looking faded.  Am I harming the printer by continuing to print?
    Solved!

    Hi enimary,
    Let me start with the quick answer: We never recommend printing once the ink indicator shows that an ink is "out".
    Since the ink level detection is mostly optical, some trace amounts of ink may still be in the ink tank when the "out" warning appears.  Let's say your cyan ink is "out".  If you print a picture with very little cyan, the print might appear fine since you are using so little of that specific ink.
    During each print, the printhead (element used to "jet" the ink onto the paper) will heat up.  As the ink passes through the nozzles of the printhead, it will cool the printhead and the cycle will repeat with each pass.  When the printhead tries to pull ink from an empty tank, it does not cool the printhead and can result in damage or clogging of the nozzles.
    It's very much a gamble to continue printing under these circumstances, but I certainly understand the need to print in a crunch.  Keep an eye out for "low ink" warnings when printing.  When a "low" warning appears, you will have about 25% of the ink still in the tanks.  This is a good prompt to have a spare ink tank available for when it finally reaches the "out" stage.
    Also, don't confuse the "low" warning with the "out" warning.  I recommend viewing the following article from our Knowledge Base: Checking the Ink status - MX882.

    my apple tv device is flashing or has a blinking light..... what do I do??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
        1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
        2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
        3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
        4.    Open iTunes.
        5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

  • Apple Tv 2 has a white blinking light with the output of just the apple logo. How do I fix this?

    Apple Tv 2 has a white blinking light with the output of just the apple logo. How do I fix this?
    I do not know how this happened but it won't get out of the start up screen.

    The 4.4 update bricked mine too.  I did the restore using the USB cable on iTunes successfully but the unit still hangs on the Apple logo screen.

  • I have an Apple TV Gen1 and it has a blinking light that changes color and I dont get any video displayed

    we have lost a few AV items due to a recent storm and i am trying to find out if my apple Tv model: A1218 is dead or fixable. It has a blinking light that changes color and I dont get any video displayed. the color looks to go red, green, off and keeps repeating that cycle.

    All I could find is this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24576
    It looks to have an issue, i.e. possibly bricked.

  • I did the software update and now all the ATV does is have a blinking light.  On my TV there was the "notes" and the new cable shown.  I tried the restart (metal remote) Menu and down button and nothing happened.

    I did the software update and after downloading and loading the ATV just hung-up with a fast blinking white light on the front of ATV.  Tried a reset with the remote - Menu /downkey and nothing happened.  Is the software corrupt or did it wipe out my ATV?

    Apple TV 1st generation or 2nd?
    I would try plugging in the HDMI from the ATV to a different HDMI port on your TV and even trying the ATV on a different TV altogether...sounds like the HDMI port on your TV might be bad or a bad connection. Keep in mind you'll need to switch the TV input to the new HDMI port

  • Fast blinking sleep indicator, computer shuts self down, trouble rebooting

    And I've gotten columns of horizontal lines (1" long, 1/8" tall) across the screen that locks system. I also get the kernl panic screen that tells me to reboot. When computer sleeps, it sometimes goes from the slow pulse to a fast blink where I cannot restart the computer without doing a hard-boot. Sometimes, the computer just shuts down.
    Help?

    Yikes! It sounds like you have several problems. I might suggest you visit a local Apple store and make an appointment with the Mac Genius to have a look at your MacBook. I've never heard of a fast-blinking sleep light when the computer is already turned on. A blinking sleep light may be an indication (at startup) that you have a RAM problem. Have you added or changed the RAM that came with your MacBook?
