Boot Camp No Longer Boots- Please Help

Hello - all of a sudden Boot Camp does not show up when holding down the alt/option button when booting up. When I boot into MAC OS, Boot Camp does show up and is accessible. Is there any way to fix this without having to reinstall Windows? Parallels also does not recognize the boot camp partition.
Thank you.

Maybe?
Where in OSX does Boot Camp show up, in the Startup options in System Preferences?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
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
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.

My iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists-.please help

my iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists….please help

I should have also said that the only reason this is causing me an issue is because I have bought a new phone and I want to sell this one. But I cannot erase all data because I cannot turn off find my phone because it keeps asking for the password for an account which no longer exists…. have tried so many suggestions but nothing is working...

Hi Buterem,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:

Can't find a playlist I created on my playlist or computer? I didn't delete it. I don't want to create it again because it took a long time. please help me find and recover.

Can't find a playlist I created on my playlist or computer? I didn't delete it. I don't want to create it again because it took a long time. please help me find and recover.

Playlists only exist as part of the larger iTunes library listing so if you are not seeing it there it doesn't exist anywhere else. I know with my older version of iTunes it is very easy to accidentally delete a playlist. With newer versions it may be possible to recover it with the undo feature in the menu but this likely will only work immediately after the deletion.

Boot Camp Crashed my computer Please help

I was trying to run boot camp so that I could install windows xp. Everything was going well until windows xp went in a circle. It would not load! I had to turn off the computer and restart it. I tried to hold down the alt/ option button to load the mac partition, but it doesn't exist. I then put in the original OS X cd and held down C. I tried to go into disk utility and format the drive but it says it's lock. I cannot do anything with my new lap top, please help
John

I did the same thing, i used bootcamp and did ntsf and set it to 120 and left the rest for mac partition and them durring the install of windows it said error please restart and the all i go was a black sceen with dos blinker, and if i put in osx dvd and use disk utility it all dimmed out and shows unformatted on the mac partitin and ntsf on the windows partition. apple didnt help at all, i went to the manhatten store this October 3 at 1030am and was treated like dirt, i even have warrenty and the manager pretty much told me "well why dont you go back to the fashion iland store". I will tell you one thing, apple makes really nice stuff thats really expensive but when it goes bad they just put all the expense on you and throw you to the curb.. i was told to try disk worrior 4, its suppost to recover and rebuild your drive so you dont have to reinstall the os and take a loss of data...

Stuck In Boot Camp With Broken Keyboard PLEASE HELP

Hi there,
Just recently, I decided I wanted to install Windows 7 on my iMac for gaming. Now, this has worked before, so I expected it to go without a hitch.
Now I sit here (on my Dad's PC), waiting for an answer. I am stuck on the black screen saying "No bootable device - press any key". I see a lot of other posts saying that I need to press option on my keyboard, but that's another problem. I have a Windows gaming keyboard, so the keys have a Windows layout. So instead, I pressed alt, which apparently is the equivalent. Nothing. I tried all the other key shortcuts, and still nothing. I noticed that when I booted up, my keyboard lit up (it's LED), but if I pressed CAPS lock or the num key, the indicators wouldn't light up.
All I want to do is boot into OS X! This is extremely frustrating, as I have some very important work on my iMac.
Someone please help me.
P.S I have tried with other keyboards, and that hasn't fixed it.

Just generally starting up my Mac, and changing back to OS X when I used to have Windows working on my iMac. By pressing alt on my Windows layout keyboard.

My old mac powerbook g4 wont boot up, it wont show apple logo and spinner aswell just stuck on grey screen while booting please help me

Resetting PRAM and NVRAM is not working
and i cann't boot it on safemode holding shift button and while holding option or c button at startup i can only see three things 1 is refresh button, 2 macintosh HD with X under it, 3 arrow forward button please help me

Put new HD in and now can't get it to boot, please help!

With disk it tells me to select a destination volume but it's blank. Without disk it gives me a ? in a folder.
Please help getting really frustrated.

OK, what version of OS X came with the computer and what version do you want to install? The first thing you need to do is format the new HD. If your computer came with Leopard (10.5.x) and you currently have Snow Leopard (10.6.x) you will need to insert the Snow Leopard upgrade DVD into your drive. Then restart the computer while holding down the Option Key, if you only have a wireless keyboard you will probably need to get your hands on a wired one. When it starts while holding the Option Button the computer should give you the option of booting from the Install Disc. Choose that option and let it continue, it will next ask which language you want choose the language then next choose Utilities menu - Disk Utility - Highlight the internal HD - Select the Erase tab - Set formate to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - Click Erase - Exit Disk Utility when format is complete and continue installing the OS. If you had a backup of your old system (Time Machine or a Bootable Clone) this is very good! Towards the end of the install it will ask if you are migrating from another Mac, choose yes then choose your backup (it has to be physically connected to the machine) and restore from the backup.
Finally PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE fill out your profile, we have no idea what computer you have or where you're located. This is critical information in order for us to provide accurate information.

MacBook Pro
10.5.5
Was working normally last night, this morning it was behaving strangely and barely responding. Wouldn't reboot, so I held down power button.
Now when it turns on it's stuck at the Apple logo with the spinning graphic. I hold Apple+V and see that it goes into this infinite loop where it says something crashed and saved the log to file.
I'm able to boot into Single User mode and I ran fsdk to no avail. Here is what the log says:
/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/mDNSResponder2008-10-16-113029Ares.crash
Dyld Error Message:

I've done the fisk disk thing in Single User mode to no avail, and I booted with my 10.5 CD and Repaired Disk Permission, no luck.
Please help. Most of the stuff I can get back, but I have a couple projects for work that I really need to get back.
Any way I can get my OS back up without reinstalling? If no, then is there any way I can mount my MacBook Pro's hard drive to another system?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

The mDNSResponder is a bonjour item associated with iTunes, Safari and other network stuff.
Sounds as if you have some corrupted files in the Frameworks area on the HD.
Can you boot into the Safe mode? That might disable the mDNSResponder.
Unplug all internet connections, all other unnecessary peripherals, especially USB devices and see if that helps.
I don't think your HD is beyond repair. Just some startup stuff is corrupted.
As suggested, DiskWarrior might also do the trick.

655 MAX FISR wont boot - please help

Please help I cannot get my new system to boot correctly. The system posts correctly but then 'hangs' with a scrambled display of coloured vertical lines.
PSU Enermax 465AX 460W
P4 2.4 GHz 533 FSB
512Mb DDR400
Creative GeForce 2 32mB DDR
If I reset the bios I can access the setup screen but the menu option beforehand says the CPU is 1.8 not 2.4 and gives a warning about the battery being low. This is the second board, I returned the first. If I set everything to safe and disable the quick boot function, the machine will POST with the correct CPU type displayed but hangs once the memory check has finished, a green lights at the back.
If anyone has any ideas, please help
Thanks

Does the MSI light bracket give you anything when it locks?
The lights are all green when it locks up. I have tried the timing set at BY SPD and also used the SAFE and normal settings. I have also used a friends RAM and got the same result. Is this board duff as well?

HT1751 Consolidating ITunes Library Failed - message received: "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long" . Please help - how to i fix this issue?

I consulted your website for details on how to back up my ITunes Library on my PC-found the article very helpful-I reached step 7 - clicked ok and the following message came up: "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long." Please can you help and advise what I should do or how to fix this issue. My pc operating system is Windows 7 Home Basic

You can select a group of tracks and consolidate from the right-click context menu. You coud try consolidating in batches, say all songs by artists beginning with A, then B, etc, then the other media types, until you can isolate a problem track and then try moving that by hand and fixing the broken link.
I also have two scripts that could help you, Unconsolidated and ConsolidateByMoving. The first can make a playlist of all unconsolidated tracks, the second can consolidate a selection of tracks by moving them instead of copying.

Problem creating ringtones - "song no longer available" - PLEASE HELP!

I want to create a couple of ringtones from iTunes I downloaded. First I tried making one from a song contained in an album I bought and downloaded about a month or two ago. iTunes wouldn't let me (for whatever reason) so I bought and downloaded a new song. once it was in my "purchased" folder I added it to a songlist and then right-clicked it and selected "Create Ringtone." I was told I needed to go to the "Terms and Conditions" and accept the "ringtones" agreement, which I did. once I clicked "I accept" I was automatically redirected back to the song list that contained the song- there was never any option or utility to continue (after accepting the terms and conditions) on and make a ringtone from the song.
NOW, when I right-click the song and select "create ringtone" I get a pop-up box that says that "this song can +*no longer*+ be made into a ringtone!" WHAT is the deal? What did I do wrong?
Can someone tell me, step-by-step how to download a song and create a ringtone from it for my iPhone? Is there a tutorial with screenshots anywhere? Somone PLEASE help me out- I cant afford to keep buying songs just to try and figure this out on my own.
Thanks.
Nick
P.S. On the iTunes webpage it said that songs that can be made into ringtones will have a ringtone icon next to them in my iTunes library; but that's not happening- even with the new song I just downloaded.

-> Tap '''ALT''' key or press '''F10''' to show the Menu Bar
-> go to Help Menu -> select '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled'''
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:
-> Update Firefox to the latest version by going to Help Menu -> About Firefox -> click '''Check for Updates''' -> if an updated version is found then download the latest version and install it. After that follow these steps:
-> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> unselect All Unwanted toolbars
-> click the Favicon on SearchBar -> click '''Manage Search Engines''' -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click '''Remove''' -> click OK
-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious Extensions (Add-ons) -> Restart Firefox
You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.
