ARGHH! MY CLAM FREEZES ON SETUP AND I DONT HAVE DISKS TO RESET.CAN I BUY

these disks so i can re-install or is there something else i have to do?
im sorry if i appear thick but i have an original clamshell that freezes during its setup every time and all i can think i can do is get the disks to re-install. im a windows person usually so am apple thick.
can anybody help?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
One thing you can do is to call the Apple Store and ask about replacement original discs. You will need to give them the serial number so they will know which ones you need. There is usually a fee for this.
Good luck!

    I'n my company ( pawn shop ) i hope i transleted fine , i bought an iphone wich it seems to be ok at the first time.
    That was on 26.11.2013 ( as can be seen in my pawn contract and billing ) . after 2 weeks i found a client to buy my second hand iphone and the i saw my mistake it is icloud blocked i need that password so i can reset the iphone to sell it. how can i manage this problem ? i can provide all my billings, contracts, society data everything.

    If you know the primary email linked to the account but do not have access to it or the answers to the security questions, then the next best thing to do is call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for Account Security.  They will ask you for two pieces of information from the account in order to unlock it.  The options are usually the security questions (each question counts as one piece), the credit card linked to the account, and either a device serial number or device verification code that they will send you.
    After this verification is complete they can send the reset link for your password to any email you choose.  Please be aware that if they verify you with something other than two security questions, there is a 24 hour wait before the email arrives.
    Good luck!

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

    I have just updated my iphone 4s with ios7. Since then i cannot play movies from my netflix app using my av cable to tv. which i baught from an apple store. i get a message saying turn off mirroring on airplay. i dont have airplay or an apple TV. what can i do?
    Thanks jonmac22

    Hi Everyone,
    hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
    Here's how to do it:
    1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
    2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
    5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
    4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
    5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
    Enjoy!
    raadore

  • I losty my telephone and I dont have imei what i can do in this situation I baught Iphone 5 in Torino now Im in Estonia in Tallinn

    I lost my Iphone5. From my bag other person take off.Now I dont have imei code.I baught in Torino in le gru now Im in Estonia in Tallinn.all hapenned here in Tallinn.How i can find imei from my phone?

    Having tghe EMEI code doesn't help if you are trying to tract the phone.  If you had turned on the Find My iPhone service (Settings>icloud) before it was taken, then you can try to track it.  If you never set it, then the only thing to do is contact your carrier to report it stolen.  Also change your Apple ID password if you use it (I assume you do, since you are posting in the icloud forum).
    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to the net, then you can try to track it.  Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  Or - on a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

  • First iMac and I dont have a clue which one to buy :(

    I have seen the light and now looking to buy a second hand Apple iMac 4,1. The specs are
    Intel Core Duo 1.83GHz  2MB L2 Cache
    2GB 667MHz RAM
    160GB Hard Drive
    17" screen.
    Tiger10.4.11
    My friend wants £200 for it which seems a good deal...but i dont know much about iMac's, as I have had windows based pcs for many years.
    I do a lot of video editing and my widnows PC just cant cope at all, constant crashing and performace issues.
    so my questions are
    Is this sutible for HD/SD video editing and what software would you recommend ? Anyone have any slow down or performance problems ?
    I will have to upgrade the HDD as 160gb is far to small, whats the largest HDD i could install and is it any more difficult to fit then a PC ?
    Thanks
    Donna

    It isn't a bad deal but it probably isn't a good deal for you. I have its big brother (so to speak) in my guest bedroom for visitors to use while they are with us. I have upgraded it to Snow Leopard and have Photoshop Elements 8, as well as Office 2008, a few games, and other programs. Back when it was my main computer, about 3-4 years ago I even did some video editing in iMovie.
    But as captfred said, Snow Leopard is as far as you can take it which means in about 18 months you are likely to see software coming out that it cannot use. Already it is too slow for the newer versions of video editing software (unless you intend to use iMovie). The drive is too small which isn't a deal killer - for the last year or so I was booting mine from a 500GB FireWire drive.
    But I strongly urge you to look elsewhere. The good deal your friend is offering would make a very good second computer for the household. I don't think it begins to fit your needs. BTW - Apple's refurbished computers are generally top notch. They tend to be returns as opposed to used. They come with a full year warranty and are elligible for AppleCare extended warranty just like a brand new computer.

  • I send mi link for podcast and i dont have answer, please where can i see the satus for aprobal

    where can i see the status for mi podcast?
    i got the mail that is in process but never the answer that was aproved or not!
    that was 5 days ago
    Thanks

    It can take at least two weeks for a podcast to be approved - sometimes more - as it required human intervention and there may be a large backlog. It's just a question of waiting. As you've received the acknowledgement email things are plainly underway, and all being well you should get an acceptance email eventually, giving you the URL of your Store page.

  • I bought a used Ipod and I would like to keep some of the games that were already uploaded, it's asking me for the previous users password and itunes info. and I dont have it. What can I do?

    You cannot.  This is not legal.  You have no legal right to these apps.

  • I have a Ipad 3 and the numbers of emails does'nt delete how can I delete them it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any

    I have a Ipad3, it is impossible to delete the numbers of emails, it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any so how can I delete the number

    These could be older unread messages and they may be buried in sub-folders. Your best bet is to go to your email web interface on a computer and search for unread emails there.

  • I Lost my iphone. I dont have mobile me and I dont have find iphone. Is there a way of finding it?

    Lost my iphone. I dont have mobile me and I dont have find iphone. Is there a way of finding it? Thank you.

    But the app has nothing to do with enabling tracking on the lost device.  To enable tracking of a device you do need a mobileme account in order to turn on the tracking feature so you can then find the lost device with either a computer and web browser or the app (running on another device).
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/find-my-iphone-setup/
    I'm assuming the OP meant that he had not enabled the tracking on the device.

  • I got free apps on my i pod touch and now its saying that i have to owe $11 and i dont have money what do i do?

    i got free apps on my ipod touch from itunes and now they wont let me download anymore apps unless i pay a balance of $11 and i dont have money so i dont know why they would even charge me when i got free apps on there. what do i do?

    You must have purchased some apps that weren't free. Apple doesn't pull charges out of no where. So unless you plan on paying, you won't get any new apps.

  • Im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

    im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

    I've found that the order of operations, so-to-speak, can be important when hooking up mini display port to HDMI.  I have the most success with the following operations in this order:
    1)  Plug HDMI cable into mini displayport adapter (the cable should not be plugged into either the TV or the computer at this point)
    2)  Plug the mini displayport end of your new super-cable to the computer.
    3)  Plug the HDMI end into your TV.
    4)  Switch inputs on your TV to the proper input.
    5)  If still nothing on the TV, try a different HDMI port on your TV.
    Hopefully this helps!  Good luck.

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?
