Battery completely drained on 15" MBP - charged but now computer has errors
The other night I came home from work and found my mac had been completely drained.
I plugged the computer in and it charged up, however when I turned it on it has been a nightmare ever since. I had to reset the date/time settings on the computer, and re-enter my WiFi password. That was simple enough.
The problem is that the computer is complainging of ACL and permission issues now and is telling me I do not have access to read files on my own computer.
I have repaired the disk, repaired disk permissions and still nothing. I also used the tool "Cocktail" which has helped file issues in the past and still nothing.
Now, I have gone to reboot my computer and cannot get passed the grey apple logo screen with spinning marker at the bottom...
You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

Ref: iphone 3G. I was visiting the US last week. My iphone battery completely drained overnight. I re-charged it but ever since it has either come up with a message saying it's registering or saying I need to register it. I'm concerned that if I re-register it on itunes I'll lose all my data. I originally registered it a couple of years or so back, when it was new. Any advice much appreciated.
Thank you for quick reply. The data is still there - every so often when I switch it on, it comes up with the main icon screen, rather than the emegency calls only screen (which it does most of the time), and I can get to my contacts, photos, and so on, but it won't connect to any mobile/cell network provider, including my network here in the UK - O2.

What does that mean when your iPod only charges when you battery dies? (meaning: when my battery isn't dead it wont charge but when the battery is dead thats the only time it will charge)
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I dropped my phone down the toilet then turned it off and left it in rice over night now it's saying battery dead and needs to be charged but I've read charing it is the worst thing to do, help please?
After taking a dip in my vest pocket in the washing machine for about 10 minutes, my nearly new 5S spent 5 days in rice and silica gel packets. It definitely dried out, but there is damage to either the battery or the circuit board because it turns on, and I continuously get a blue screen and it reboots every five minutes for a half hour, and then miraculously, it stays on and works perfectly. But I wound up having to fork over $700 for a new 6+. because I couldn't stand the rebooting any longer. I had no insurance, but I do now, Apple insurance, not carrier ins.

Started to download IOS 6.1 and failed to complete due to no wall charger. Now download fails with "failed verification because no longer connected to internet. Wi-fi shows my linksys. What's up?

I think maybe the download is in the phone because it switched from download to a preparing message. It almost completed, blu bar nearly full and then the fail message. Today, on a different wi-fi, I get the Unable to Verify Update message. Is there a way to clear and start over?
Seems to be a content expiration issue, probably to keep the load down on the servers hosting the updates. I've found that resetting your network settings does the trick, even if it is a little overkill.

My icloud and iphone has one apple id but my computer has another
My icloud and iphone has one apple id but my computer has another (I have 2 ids). What can I do to sync them since I can't switch my computer ID to an 'existing' id?
You should be able to log out of iCloud on your Mac and then log in with the ID used on your other devices.

I accidentally washed my 6th generation iPod nano. It will turn on still but now it has a computer screen setup on the screen, is there a way I can get it back to normal? I can plug it into my computer and it works and I've click the restore button that comes under the nano's summary when it's plugged in. Any type of help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Take your iPod Nano back to the Apple Store. Let them see what you are seeing. Only this time............
Prior to leaving the Apple Store: ***Make sure you have the store staff power the iPod Nano up and demonstrate that it is indeed working properly to your satisfaction.*** -

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

my ipod was frozen, but now it has an x on the screen. What can i do about it?
See here: iPod Displays a Red "X" Icon
Note that the fatal red X is often a clear indication that your iPod's HD is shot and in need of replacement. You'll need to take or send your iPod in for repair either through Apple or a third party service.
