BT will not see pad

Bluetooth refuses to find the magic trackpad, but will see the magic mouse.
I imagine this has been addressed before, but I'm at a loss.
thanks

Hi I have discovered that when you take the back off the magic mouse that a little metal strip is what keeps it turned on when the back is on. It presses on a plastic slightly recessed button. I think this is the connection that is compromised over time. By slighty bending the metal strip the contact is again more reliable. Took me ages to consider this might be the problem. Not sure if same principle will work with the magic track pad. Hope this is helpful.

Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air. In bootcamp i allocate the partition then i click install and bootcamp will not see the disk.

Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (on my MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air via remote disk. In bootcamp (on my air) i allocate the partition, then i click install, and bootcamp will not see the disk from my macbook pro's drive. How do i get the bootcamp assistant running on my MB air to automatically find the disk in my macbook pro with the ISO image of windows 7? The remote disk on my air can find the cd but bootcamp will not begin installing it. Anyway to do this without buying the damned usb drive?

I don't know first hand if you can use the Remote Disk option with Windows but as of 10.7.2 you can now use BCAssistant to make a bootable USB (thumb drive or external disk) W7 installer with the Boot Camp drivers installed also. Have you tried that yet?

I have a Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an antennae?

I have an Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an additional antennae? If so, which one because my research is confusing me about what is supposed to work with this computer.

Please check out the following Apple Support article to see if your particular Power Mac model supports an external Wi-Fi antenna.

TS2972 I have 4 Apple TV's. All set up to Home share. One will not see the computer. It is also the only 720 I have. The other three are 1080's. How do I get the 4th one (the720) to recognize my Mac?

Need more information to help you, but I am providing some suggestions. Sorry if you are past these type of basic things. But didnt really have much to start with and understand your technical level to start with.
Have you got into Settings > Computers > Turned on Home Sharing (Note: You must use the some Apple ID used by the iTunes library on your MAC for them to see one another)
How is your MAC connected to the network vs the 720 ATV2? Is one WiFi and the other Ethernet? Have you tried switching the ATV2 to WiFi if Ethernet?
Has the MAC been restarted since this started happening? Same with your Router and any other networking device being used? Sometimes an IP conflict can arise in your networking and most consumer networking equipment does not know how to "self heal" without a reboot.
Make sure you have given those things a whirl and share back your results. Any other information you can provide, such as how you connect to your network from each ATV and MAC.

Macbook will not see wireless network

My new Macbook will not see my wireless network. My Windows 2000 PC, my Ipod touch and my Macbook Pro (jaguar) all see it no problem and work well with it.
I have tried entering the network name manually and it does not work. I have WEP password protection.
The macbook sees and connects to all other wireless networks I've encountered (father-in-law's house, Airport departure lounges, hotspots etc.). The macbook also sees my neighbours networks no problem.
I am confused, please help.

I am having the same issue, a friend visited with his new Mac Mini, running Leopard, and it would not see the wireless network, that 3 other macs (PowerBook G4, iBooks G4 and G3) running Tiger (10.4.11) and Windows machines recognize without problem.
I'm wondering if the issue is Leopard and 3rd party routers or MY router in particular, as I have a US Robotics 5461, and I remember when a previous roommate replaced her G4 iBook, running Tiger, with a MacBook Intel running Leopard, she also had issues connecting wirelessly.
My friend's Mini had no problem recognizing all the neighbors networks (at least 4 or 5) and I'm pretty sure they are not Mac users with an Airport Base Station.
I was hoping to upgrade my G4 PowerBook (once I get it repaired) to Leopard in the future, but I don't want to lose the ability to connect to my wireless network.
Has anyone running Leopard run into this problem and found a solution?

PS CS5.1 [was: 5.5] will not see my Canon 550d cr 2 files

I am running a mac on os x and Photoshop 5.1 . I just purchased a canon rebel 550d (T5i I think) It will not see any of the images. This must be an Adobe issue as the MAc finder and preview sees the images.
SO I have downloaded and tried to install various camera raw updates. 5.1 5.7 6.1 6.4 7.1 7,3 nothing seems to work indeed one of them failed to open. ver 6.1 will not open as an error code comes up. this error code relates to not being elligable for the version, yet it says cs 5. cs 5.5 and 6 are worthy.
CAn someone help please.
regards Paul

Do you mean Photoshop 5.5 (shipped in 1999) or Photoshop CS5 (shipped in 2010)?
If 5.5 (1999), then it's unlikely to ever read Raw files.
If you mean CS5 then try Help > Updates to update your Camera Raw to version 6.7.

The 550D has been fully supported since Raw 6.1

G5 Dual 2.0 will not see sata dirve, but boots to ide on the cdrom cable

I have a G5 dual 2.0 and it will not see the sata drive. I have a 320 wd and a 80 wd.
At one point last night I was able to partition the hd using firewire and a mac mini. But no longer can see the drive.
I pulled the drive from my g4 with panter and plugged it into the cdrom cable and it boots fine.
How do I get the sata back working?
In info, it show the ide and then says k2 sata root twice below that.
I am running 512 pc3200 ram
Any help appreciated

Hi, This is a power mac mini 1.42 with tiger
I tried with my macbook and it would not see it, and the macbook was asking to do some crazy thing to be able to use it as storage, just left macbook alone.
When I formated I zero'd all data, then just used whatever was default.
Messing around now, I can see the 80 gig. Panther just installed with much difficulty LOL, so my machine is fine, just need to figure out the drive now
The 320, I will put in a HP machine and use gparted again. Should I leave it unformatted or try a different file system? I think when I wiped the windows from it I left it unformatted the first time.
After I did partition, I made 3 partitions on the 320 and drug my os9 folder onto the second partition, Maybe that did it. This is the first I am really messing around with a g5, so much to learn.
I think zapping pram frequently is what is working so far. Going after the 320 now

I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey. Is there any way to convert them?

I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey. Is there any way to convert them or must I do it on another machine?

iPhoto used to support the PCD format up to a few years ago. It's extremely frustrating that Apple decided to no longer support this format and now I'm directed to pay nearly $40 for an app that will (GraphicConverter 9). Did Lemke Software make a deal with Apple so we'd have to pay a premium for a very overpriced converter? And, how are decisions like this supposed to encourage the use of iPhoto?
Apple users already pay a premium to use a Mac. Obstacles like these eventually destroy loyalty to the Apple brand. Just ask Microsoft how their back room deals that exploited their customer base worked out for them.

Itunes will not see Slvr

I am running the latest Itunes and now Itunes will not see Slvr. It will sync my address book and calendars but will not see slvr in Itunes. This is a Cingular phone. I hope someone has a fix.

I'm having the same issue. I called Apple and they weren't able to help. This is crazy. The phone isn't even a year old. Is this just a gimmick to get us to buy the new iPhone?
I tried all the fixes outlined on another post and nothing works.

Ipod will not see Computer

I have a Ipod 5gen and It will not see my computer and my computer will not see the Ipod I have tried different cords. I can't connect to another computer and I can charge my Ipod via a wall charger but not my computer. If anyone can help me please do I've been trying to sync scene November. Thanks

Try this:
plug in your iPod. reset the ipod by holding down the center and menu buttons for ten seconds. as SOON as you see the apple logo, hold down the center and play/pause buttons until you see the connecting symbol.
if itunes doesn't recognize it, try opening up disk utility (if you're on a mac) and restoring the drive. if you're on a PC, just see if you can find the ipod showing up anywhere and reformat it and then restore via itunes.
good luck!

Ipod will not see video's as video

Ok, my ipod will not see the vids on it ad videos, but I can play them from the songs. My issue is if I made itunes update and see them as such them all the music no longer in my itunes folder disapears. I need a way to have my ipod recognise the video's on it as such, without killing my music collection.

It seems like others are having the same problem. Today I noticed my iPod won't play videos anymore either. I'm cruising around these topics to try to determine why. I already used the 'Restore' feature and spent about an hour copying stuff back to the iPod only to find that it still does not work.

Firefoox will not see my default network printer. it see's all other printers except that one. why not?

firefox will not see my artisan 810 network printer and allow me to select it from the available printers. why not?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== un known

Thank you. That's what I thought will need to happen.
One more question. I tried using the Apple install disk that came with the computer. It's an OS 10.5.6 disk. It does not see my 10.6.8 system internal hard drive to repair. All it see's is itself 10.5.6 disk. Do you think I can use a 10.8+ disk utillity since that is a higher system it will see the 10.6.8. Where the 10.5.6 does not?
I don't want to turn the computer off for fear I'll get the question mark again. P-Ram got me going last time but for how long I don't know? It would be nice to be able to turn the computer off for the night and startup as usual to give it a rest and try to reset itself.
Thanks for your help, I know I will eventually need to re-install. But I am in the middle of a project with tight deadlines and all I can do right now is back-up. Trying to migrate to another computer temporarily to finish the job. That's a lot of extra work in the short time also.
Just trying to put a band-aid on it for another couple weeks.

Will not see CD

I'm using iTunes 7.6.2. I insert a CD for import and iTunes and the computer will not see it. I need to hit the eject button and reinsert the CD then iTunes will see it and then I can import.
Any ideas?

That's a known bug. I get the same thing but not consistently. Don't remember if there is a specific fix.

Time machine will not see USB attached drive

I am having some difficulty getting Time Machine to see a USB attached Lacie drive. I can get it to mount through the finder, but Time Machine will not see it. It also works fine through a direct firewire connection. I have all of the current updates. Any help is appreciated.

Well after much trial and error I figured it out. I had to enable file sharing with a disk password. Before I had it set up for accounts and it was not mounting properly.

have you tried formatting the drive, by selecting the disk or volume and using extended (journal). If the drive use to be a PC drive, you need to also give it a new index table. To give it a new table, you got to go to the partition section and use the option button. There will be 3 types, the GUID table is for intel macs, the 2nd selection is for PPC macs, and the third is for Window/Dos. You want to use to GUID table. After the table is set, format the disk using extended (journal).
