BIG DISASTER! I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MY COMPUTER! PLEASE HELP
Power G4 Mac OS X (10.2.x) Right now it has reverted back to 10.2.8, but it was updated to 10.4 something..
I have a major problem. I have an essay that I need to work on but my computer is acting all strange. A while ago my family decided to split up into accounts instead of just having one for all of us. Everything was going fine until this morning when no one was around, the computer must have fallen asleep. When we tried clicking around on the mouse nothing was happening, the screen was still black, but the computer was still on... So we decided to restart it by pressing the power button. When the computer started up, it had reverted back to the old state, when we only had one account for all of us. Right now it thinks it is version 10.2.8, but we installed Tiger a few months ago. This has happened before (that the computer goes back to the original state) and I believe all we did was restart it, then everything was normal again. I've done that quite a number of times and still no change - I can't access that essay or get the computer to be normal. If anyone has any advice or solution to this problem I would so greatly appreciate the help!

HI Maria And Barry..
I've got the Tiger No Shutdown problem
My System Prefs unexpectedly closed when I selected startup disk
system profiler, disc utility and such are failing
Did you upgrade from a boxed retail Tiger, Maria?

Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot.

My Macbook aliminium unibody from late 2008 will not boot. I reach the grey screen with the apple icon and the spinning grey gear. I used disk utility to boot it but it said integrity test failed. I don't know what to do can anyone please help?
Sounds like you may have a harddrive issue. You are probably going to need to get that changed out and then install the OS X again to get it going.

my friend activated my new ipad4 with icloud but now he is died and my device asking for icloud account but i don't know what i shall do.. please help me.. my imei number is 01*********544
<Personal Information Edited by Host>There is a new security feature in iOS 7 called Activation Lock. You need the
AppleID and passcode used to activate the iPad or it will be useless to you.
There is no workaround.
Suggest you try very hard to remember that AppleID and passcode. Did you try the
AppleId you used to log into this forum?

I tried to register an Iphone 4S and don't know what to do.. PLEASE HELP!
Hi guys,
I tried to register my mums phone and it said it would send a email but hasnt... and theres no service or anything on the Iphone 4s..
and i dont know what to do next... Please Help me!!Hello there Yeppersnv,
It sounds like you are having trouble installing the iOS 8 update. I would start by restarting your iPhone:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
If you are still unable to update the phone, you can also update it with iTunes on your computer:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch iOS software
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

What if my ipod touch 4th generation can't update and now the only option is to restore it.
And i don't know what happens if i press restore?
Will it show my back up and back it up or what?
And if that does happen will all my pictures stil be there?
Also i'm not on a apple computer.To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Either a PC or Mac work the same.

Hay. i change the screen LCD in IPAD 2 3G but i don't know what happen. She was working and every thing it's ok. One time i turn off the ipad and turn on more time, i don't see good in LCD the brightness is to low and i can see any thing!! and i want to know why is happen
Assuming you mean that you performed the repair yourself, it would seem that you either obtained a defective screen or you did some sort of damage when you replaced the screen. You can try asking for assistance on ifixit.com, a site dedicate to those attempting their own repairs, or you can take the iPad to a shop and pay them to try to correct the problem for you. Apple will no longer touch your iPad now that you've attempted your own repairs.

what are the steps in Apple Configurator iPad restore? It appears to me that Configurator repeats steps, but it probably is that I don't know what happens and when.
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can get a clue to what it is, and potentially use it, by going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have, or don't want to use, your rescue email address (you won't be able to add/change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset (which will be by phone as they need to verify your id - we are fellow users here on these forums).
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add/change rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570 -

I have a big problem, I don't know what I touched but when I open up my iTunes I can't see all the icons. The only icons showing are "podcast, iTunes U and Downloads" so in other words I can't find the movies, music etc. Which means I can't buy/rent!
Not all content types are available in all countries - in each country Apple can only sell what they are licensed to (and in some cases what a country's laws allows them to). A list of what is available where is shown on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599

why can't i sign in in the apple store using my apple id? but from the itunes application in my computer which i downloaded, i can use my apple id to sign in...and while opening my apple store in my phone it appears blank..i don't know what happened?
It's a straightforward port-forwarding issue.
You need to forward ports to the internal ip address of your apple tv as follows:
TCP 123
TCP 3689
UDP 5353
TCP 80
TCP 4343
TCP 53
This may also solve other problems you may have with homesharing...
