Boot Camp on rMBP - Games are not working well. Drivers updated, any ideas?
Windows 7 64-bit Drivers are updated, and OS is current (both in the Mac and Win sides).
In Asassins Creed III, the resolution stays at the lowest setting. Any attempt to increase the resolution above the lowest setting (not just to the highest setting) results in a blinking screen and an eventual reset back to the original (low) resolution.
In other games, the mouse appears to be "off" by about 100 pixels to the right. When I click on something, the cursor is not where the clicking happens.
In still other games, the sound is off. Sound seems to be turned down, even though it's at its max in the game's settings. This only happens for some games.
Any help is appreciated.
Did you check Control Panel>Device Manager ?
Open up the DVD/CD-ROM Drives and see if your drive is even listed.
If it is try updating the drivers.
If not Run Action>Scan for Hardware Changes and see if Windows finds the Drive.

My ipod touch seems to have a few issues, however my pre-installed and updated imessage and facetime were literally working last night, and after a breif break to charge battery (the back of the ipod was SUPER HOT) wasn't able to do facetime or imessage, and am STILL NOT today, what gives?? Any suggestions and advice?.
Found the answer, at least for now! Thanks to roryjt, and having to search through tons of post on imessage and facetime issues! Changed the DNS on my ipod for my wireless network to 8.8.8.8 Not sure if it will work outside of my wireless network, but since its an ipod, not an iphone, I usually only use it in my place/on my network. Below is a link to the thread by roryjt.

I've played with java preference settings and it makes no difference.
Have you checked the brower preferences to make sure the plug-in is enabled? It appears maybe you have. -
Why the games are not working properly in my ipad after installing iOS7
Why games are not working properly in my ipad in my iOS 7
The games you mention would have been written and therefore designed for the previous version of iOS - you've most likely had a lot of updates lately in the run-up to the release of iOS 7 and if these games haven't had an update then chances are these will need to be adapted to iOS 7 by the developers if not working correctly.

I have an iMac 8.1, OSX 10.6.8, Boot Camp 3.2 running Windows XP. My original keyboard (MB110LL/A) was damaged by a water spill. I ordered a new one from the Apple Store. They sent me MB110LL/B, function keys need updated drivers (Boot Camp 3.3) which will only install if Windows 7 is installed. I have a large amount of older software that runs under XP but not Windows 7. The Apple support team basically said "too bad". If they replace a keboard model with a new model, they should at least make it backwards compatable or provide a Boot Camp update that will allow this model to work on older iMacs. Reloading Bootcamp 3.3 several times has no effect because it does not detect Windows 7. Any Ideas or help would be appreciated.
It is free. It is beta. It works well - I use it on mine and two PCs as well...
MS Security Essentials will no longer install due to compatibiliity issues - that is the idea of a beta - and the RC could be out in June.
Windows 7 doesn't work great on any Mac, or Apple drivers, fan cvontrol to manage heat, and other issues.
Put 8 in and get to know it, then when the RC comes out you'll be ready -
Updated my IOS 7 now some of my games are not work, how can I fix this problem?
I have updated my Ipad to the IOS 7 and now some of my games/apps are not working, how can i fix this or revert back to what I had before?
I'm afraid you'll have to wait until both Apple and the makers of your games/apps upgrade to new versions.
Apparently there are still some issues with iOS7 that are being dealt with and the same with some apps.
As for going back, I don't think you will be able to get this information from these forums... -
Most applications are not working after software update-HELP!!!
HI,i have a 4 years old macbook which i upgrade couple of month ago with snow leopard to use it with my iphone...everything was fine,all applications were working until i did the software update today!!!now almost NOTHING works,no skype,no itunes,no msn..etc..when i try to open an application,it shuts down!!!ANY IDEAS???
The normal best practice for any update:
backup
repair your system
insure you have a working bootable backup clone
restart once in safe boot mode
and only then apply updates
repair permissions (but ONLY from current system version, not from earlier version, so skip using original OS X Snow Leopard DVD even)
Also check the "Using Snow Leopard" forum. There are always a few/some who seem to have problem, but unless you have something that 'broke' and does not work with this update, it was an underlying issue, "waiting to happen" so to speak. -
My aps are not working right since update
My aps are not working any clues
All apps? Some apps? One App?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

How to clone Boot Camp partition when Winclone does not work
The hard drive in my MacBook Pro is failing. It has 2 partions, one for Apple and the other is a Bootcamp with Windows 7.
I tried repairing it with Disk Utility, which did not work. I also ran DiskWarrior, which resulted in the error message: "Directory cannot be rebuilt due to disk hardware failure". I was able to copy my Apple files through DiskWarrior although there were a couple of errors.
My question is how to clone my Bootcamp Partition. I tried making an image with Disk Utility but it failed. I also tried using Winclone and it failed indicating there were hard drive issues.
Is there another way to try to copy the Bootcamp partition? I can boot to Apple so running a program/app or trying UNIX commands might work.
Thank you in advance.Some previous forum comments I have collected regarding backup of BootCamp.
Acronis 2011 w/ plus pak, didn't work well previously
Ghost 15 - probably not
Casper 6 works for Windows on Boot Camp only
CopyCatX is more lengthy and sector copy so takes the longest.
Paragon Hard Drive Suite 2011 because it works great and they have CampTune
Windows 7 system backup and restore - Apple's goofy HFS read-only interferes with system and file backup.
I have also used Casper, Clonezilla and Paragon but less regularly, Casper failed a few times, I stopped using it, Clonezilla worked but took forever (for me) Paragon (which I have only used twice) was the best but my sample is limited.
I have restored from DU, CCC, SuperDuper and TM, they all worked, TM was slower but not a lot, you can boot from the others, which I prefer.
Paragon HDM 2011 can do either offline or online backups, the difference is that with an offline backup, the entire partition (or disk) is unallocated. In an online backup, the backup utility is running against a partition that may be making changes to itself. When you run CCC or SD! in OS X, you're running an online backup. However, I would recommend (at least for the first backup) that you boot from the HDM recovery CD to do an offline backup. This will ensure that you have an *exact* copy of the parition/disk.
I tried the native Windows backup utility. It worked to backup and restore my Windows partition, but I noticed a "bad" side effect. When I would restore a Windows Backup to my HD, it would corrupt my MacOS boot partition, so I would then have to restore the Mac partition as well.
Winclone allows you to migrate your Bootcamp partition from one Mac to another Mac and make sure Windows will boot. However, if the processor (for example, Core Duo or i7) is a different type, the restored version of Windows may not be supported or be able to run on the new Mac. If you are migrating between Macs that are the same type (MacBook Air to MacBook Air, for example), you will have the greatest chance of success. You can try to restore Winclone images between different types of Macs (for example, a Mac Pro to a Mac Mini), but be aware that if Windows boots but does not reach the desktop, it is probably not an issue with Winclone, but rather the change in processor type. -

I'm using
HP Pavilion 15-e015tx
and windows 8.1 os.I'm having a problem that some of the games are blinking or not working properly in high performance in amd graphics driver.The games are working only on power saving mode and I'm experiencing very poor graphics performance.How can i get rid of this? pls tell me a solutionIn order to get proper help or solution you should list the devices specs for example processor type, ssd or conventional hard drive type graphics card model example apu or discrete and how much ram is installed plus is it tailored for gaming, I will be honest with you consumer notebooks are not ment for gaming.
Do you have the latest updated software installed for the card? Is your internet connection being hampered by background tasks?
If what I just said doesn't make any sense to you then you should simply refresh your system install the game and see if the problem still persists other wise your devices is not ment to run game's.

My purchase games are not working after ISO 8 update
I recently updated my iPad 3rd gen I'm thinking, anyways, it has the iOS 8 update. When I open my game app, it loads up for a second and closes right after. The game is up to date and PURCHASED. Along with many other games, so I am a bit mad. These games are relatively expensive and not for me, it's for my son, who is really upset because he thought I put him on time-out. I digress, anyways, how can this be resolved? My iPad is 16g does that matter? My games are backed onto my icloud. Thank you in advance!
try double tapping the home key and closing any app at the bottom that is in-memory. then reset by holding the top button and home button until you get the apple logo (when the slider switch option appears to turn off the phone, ignore it and don't let go of the two buttons).
after it resets try one of your games. this has cured all kinds of weirdness for me. -
Boot Camp partition missing, VMware Fusion not working
I'm using OS 10.10.2
Windows 7
Fusion 7.1.0
Winclone 3.7
I've been sharing a boot camp partition with Fusion for a while. I don't know when it happened but when I recently tried to log in using Boot Camp, the partition didn't show up in Apple's start up screen or in the Finder even though I could see it in Fusion.
I needed to expand the partition so I backed it up with Winclone changed the partition from 40 to 75 gig and reinstalled the Winclone file.
Now I'm unable to boot into Windows using Fusion and I still can't see the Boot Camp partition when I start up.
Fusion said
so I did.
The new virtual machine said
and
Now it wants me to upgrade Windows.
Please help.I saw R.NTFS so I started on the Windows DVD and ran Repair.
Unfortunately I still can't get Boot Camp to do anything beside give me a flashing cursor on a black screen.
What else can I do?
This is from the terminal screen after I did everything above. It still says R.NTFS

Links are not working well, some do and other don't!
Because I want to have url's like www.name.nl/products/productx.html, www.name.nl/organization/personal.html etc. I made for each map a different little website.
I made the menu manually and for each menu item I made links like: http://www.name.nl/products/productx.html.
So I made on the ftp maps of the different menu items like ;huidaandoeningen, products, behandelingen, contact, etc.
Now the site is online but it's not going well...
Some links are correct like http://www.htcbreda.nl/huidaandoeningen/acne.html
All other menu items below 'Huidaandoeningen' is working well but links below 'Behandelingen' are nog working.
If you try you also see another url address then I gave for instance:
The requested URL /acnebehandeling.html was not found on this server. This while a give it the name http://www.htcbreda.nl/behandelingen/acnebehandeling.html
Als for all the menu items below 'Products' and also the menu items below in the big blue bar on the homepage....
I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to resolve this for a week now and I cannot figure out what is going wrong. Frustrating....The Yahoo! Toolbar extension has been reported to cause this issue.

I've just upgraded iOS 8.0.2 with .ipsw file. It asked for my iCloud password in Set Up. It says it's wrong. So i skipped it.
I tap iPhoto and it tells me to marge the photos to Photos app. It was going fine and then suddenly, it closed. Now i can't open the Photos app anymore. I've rebooted and deleted iPhoto app. I can't even open through Camera.
I can't see my profile in iCloud (in Settings). It's keeping me the password. Its still wrong. I can't even turn off Find My iPhone to restore my iPhone. It says verification failed.
I don't know what to do anymore. I still can use my iCloud on my Computer. I still can use everything and everywhere except on my iPhone.You are not alone. I got that issue also. I always reboot my phone or reset the network setting but it only work for a few hours.
