Can't get past "Initializing"

I've installed Authorware Player in Mozilla Firefox 1.5 but
when I try to veiw any Authorware files I get the blank screen with
"Initializing" in the middle with a blank slider bar beneath it. It
goes no further.
I've tried it in 3 different machines with the same result.
How can I get Authorware player to work?

That doesn't work for me either. I suspect something has
changed since
they first deployed it, like switching from Linux to Windows,
etc. and just
no one from there has gone back to check.

Function Keys stuck on can't get past initial F1 screen

I have an ancient ze4900. The CMOS battery has been dead for years, but I always hit F1 right when it boots and everything was fine. Now my son set the num lock on so F1 is not functional at that point, rather it changes the brightness. Is there anyway I can reset num lock off, so that F1 will clear the initial screen and I can boot again?
EDIT: Just to be more clear, because the CMOS battery is dead, the machine asks me to press F1 to continue or F10 to go to setup between the BIOS and when Windows starts. The num lock is stuck on, so that when I try to hit F1 the screen gets dimmer. Is there a way to reset the num lock from the BIOS on this system? Is there a hardware reset that might clear the num lock setting? This seems like a really dumb reason to have to buy a new laptop!

Sorry, but the only help I can offer is to bump this higher so other people will see it. Can you boot into safe mode? Please post a solution when you find it. Good luck!

Can't get past "Initializing" in Garageband 3.02

The program isn't hanging - I can still quit and access menus - but can't do anything useful whilst the initializing dialogue stays up. I've never really used Garageband on this particular iMac, and don't think any plug-ins have been added or other tinkering to the program.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Andrew

You should try this in another user account, if this happens in another user account then reinstalling GarageBand would be the next logical step. As far as the lack of a GarageBand cs file (~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.GabargeBand.cs) that is ok and nothing to worry about. GarageBand does not always have a cs file. There is a cache file for GarageBand that can be deleted as well. I suggest making a second user account, if the issue persists in a second user then try reinstalling GarageBand like this: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2822688#2822688
The problem you are experiencing can be solved in some cases by renaming the Movies and Pictures folder in your home folder (since GarageBand 3 has the media browser it can also be affected by those folders on launch, but this problem would not occur in another user account)
As far as the location of the GarageBand install package: if your computer came with iLife '06 pre installed then GarageBand is on the software install restore discs that came with your computer. If i
Life '06 was not pre-installed then it is on your iLife '06 disc, this could be either a CPU drop in kit, or just a plain old iLife '06 disc. You can check your software install and restore discs by inserting disc 1 into your computer and double clicking on the package that says "install bundled software only"
make sure you delete the garageband application and receipt before reinstalling.
To recap:
Try using GarageBand in a second user account, if it works in a second user then DO NOT reinstall GarageBand, I will give you some ideas if you find that it does work in a second user.
If GarageBand has the same issue in a second user account then you should remove the Garageband applicaiton and receipt, then reinstall GarageBand from either the iLife disc or the Software install and restore discs that came with your computer. By the way, if you have AppleCare you can call the support line when an application will not launch, they can help you fix that.

Hello,
I recommend you contact AT&T's dedicated BB Support staff (call their front line, request escalation to BB Support) and have them check to be sure that your account with them is correctly configured for this device. Sometimes when switching devices things don't fully automatically move behind the scenes, and only they (ATT) can validate that.
Good luck and let us know!

AE CS6 can't get past the "Mediacore Initializing" window

I just installed Mountain Lion on my 12-core Mac Pro, did a clean install of CS6 Master Collection and still can't get past the "Mediacore Initializing" window. All the other CS6 apps are working fine and I don't have any plug-ins installed as of now.
Also, After Effects CS6 with Mountain Lion is working just fine on my MacBook Pro so I'm wondering if Mountain Lion is really the cause or not.
I've tried are throwing out the preference files, but that didn't do anything either. Furthermore, I still have CS5.5 on my computer and After Effects gets stuck in the same place with that version, as well.
If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ray

Can't get past "terms of Use" screen at initial set-up

I'm trying to set up our new Nano, but I can't get past the "Terms of Use/User Agreement" screen. There is just nothing showing up which will allow me to "accept" the terms. When you scroll to the bottom of the terms, there is nothing, and there are no tabs anywhere else on the page which say "accept". I've updated my itunes software, operating system software, and tried several times to eject, then reconnect ipod, but no good. Please help.

Hello Annie0602,

Mac Mini Server - Can't get past...

Mac Mini Server
I'm getting the "You are unable to log in to the user account xxx" message. I click OK, then the Apple icon appears, and that's as far as I can get.
I'm new to the Mac, and have had it running for a month. Set it up initially as "Host Name for local network."
Here is where I got into trouble. I changed it now to the 3rd item, "Host name for Internet." I entered a domain name I have, "ve3zt.ca" and I recall at the time that the computer name changed to VE3ZT from local.mini, or something similar. I rebooted and am in this position. Obviously, I made a major boo boo.
As I said, I now can't get past the Apple logo. Pressing any keys on the keyboard results in a "beep" from the Mini. That's it!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
Paul.

Update:
I did the "command-R" recovery and everything went smoothly. However, the message, "You are unable to log in to the user accound "xxxxx" at this time. Logging in to the account failed because an error occurred." Pressing OK brings up the Apple logo screen. Can only get out of this by pressing the power button on the Mini for several seconds.
Any advice?
Regards, Paul.

Hi denephew9999,
You need to provide more information as to what software are you trying to download, the OS you are using and the browser to download the software.
Do let me know the exact error message while downloading with possible with screenshots.
Alternatively you can try downloading it from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

CAN'T GET PAST STEP 8 SETUP CD

I have a WRT54G router. After a couple of months I started having problems accessing the internet. I started all over again, installing the router rom scratch. However, I can't get past step 8 of the installation process. The setup program prompts me for a password. I enter "admin" and it starts checking for computer settings. After it reaches 100%, it prompts for the password again and then the process start all over. It never stops asking for the password.
I try to exit, but I get a message saying "installation incomplete". HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You had a password setup on this router when you initially setup this router. You need to provide that password. If you don’t remember the password then you may need to hard reset the router by pressing the reset button at the back for 1min and then try again. This time it should accept the admin password.

Hi printspat,
From what I gather, you have a payment method selected for your iTunes Store account which isn’t being accepted when setting up Family Sharing.
Take a look at the he article linked below provides, which provides a lot of great information about Family Sharing, and make sure you're trying to use a valid payment method for setting up Family Sharing.
Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support
One adult in the family—the family organizer—can set up Family Sharing for the group from their iOS device or Mac. When you set up Family Sharing, you'll be asked to confirm that you agree to pay for purchases initiated by the family members you invite and that you have a valid payment method on file. Valid payment methods for setting up Family Sharing include credit cards and debit cards.*
Cheers,

Can't get past "Welcome to Mail" screen

I have been trying to set up my Apple Mail account to access my Gmail account but find I can't get past the initial "Welcome to Mail" screen. When I click on the Mail Icon the screen that tells me I have no e-mail account and asks for the basic e-mail account info including the POP and SMTP address. The problem though is all the set up instructions I have require me to go through the "Preferences" from the Mail's pull down menu, but it, along with almost every other command, is greyed out when the "Welcome to Mail" screen is in the forefront.
I've tried filling in the info requested on the "Welcome to Mail" screen with my Gmail account info (and yes, I've set my Gmail account for POP mail) but Apple Mail can't connect to Gmail with the limited info provided.
So the question is how does one get past the "Welcome to Mail" screen to access the Preferences in the Mail program so I can fill in all the necessary information to get the Apple Mail to work?

The Account Setup “Assistant” is a pain, indeed. It’s unbelievable how lame that “feature” is. After setting up the first mail account, you can bypass it by holding the Option (Alt) key down when clicking the [+] button in Preferences > Accounts, but it appears to be unavoidable when setting up Mail for the first time. There are two things you can do about it, though:
(1) Let it time-out. It may take a few minutes, but you can do other things with the computer in the meanwhile.
(2) Shut down the Internet connection so that Mail times-out immediately, and go online again when done.

Claudius,either you didn't read my post, or you jumped to conclusions. I had a skype account that was created using a microsoft account (NOT THE ACCOUNT I AM USING NOW). PURE MICROSOFT ACCOUNT NO OTHER ACCOUNT LINKING.I had to change the primary mail of that account.I was told "no can do" by skype support.I found that if I went to account settings and clicked on the link on the line below the one that said "MICROSOFT etc" (labeled something along the lines of "TV or Device") I got the opportunity to set the password of the "live:username" account (WHICH YOU COINCIDENTALLY HAVE TO DO IF YOU WANT TO USE SMART TVs ETC).Once that was done, I COULD SUCCESSFULLY DO WHAT SKYPE SUPPORT SAID WAS IMPOSSIBLE- I could change the primary mail address. once that was done, and NOT BEFORE, I linked the account to a facebook account as well, just to be sure I have more than one way to access the skype account. What caused you to get the impression that I was writing something else? furthermore this sentence - "The solution you described in your initial message isn't actually once since all the time you were operating on different account that weren't actually linked" does not make sense, I think you mis-edited it.and I need to point out that you are incorrect. I WAS NOT OPERATING ON DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS I WAS OPERATING ON ONE SKYPE ACCOUNT, THAT WAS CREATED USING A MICROSOFT ACCOUNT just like you say you recommend. I still don't know how you can misread my initial entry like that. If you have a better solution to my initial problem - changing the primary mail of a skype account created throuth either a microsoft account or a facebook account, Please write a sticky to explain how to do it, and please inform skype support that Yes it can be done, and this is the way it is done. So far my "lucky shot" seems to be the only way to do it.

I can't get past the grey apple screen using mavericks

I can't get past the grey apple screen trying to boot up with Mavericks. I had been using Mavericks for about a month (only had issues of freezing occasionally). I read in one of the posts here that I should try holding command R down when booting. I did now I just get a grey screen without the apple. Any advise?
I have a Mac Mini

Hello ther cnickers,
It sounds like the initial install of Mavericks went ok, and you have been using it for a while, but now cannot boot to your desktop and are stuck at a gray screen with an Apple logo. I would recommend a couple of things here:
First, try performing a Safe Boot to see if that will load up for you. If so then leave Safe Boot and restart from the Apple menu to try and get to your deskop:
To start up into Safe Mode (to Safe Boot), follow these steps.
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key.
The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
After the logo appears, you should see a progress bar during startup. This indicates that your computer is performing a directory check as part of Safe Mode.
To leave Safe Mode, restart your computer without holding any keys during startup.
From: Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

If that works fine, I would next also verify and repair your disk if needed.
Disk Utility 12.x: Repair a disk
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5836
Print this help page so you can refer to it later. (You don’t have access to Disk Utility Help when you restart up your computer in the next step.)In the Disk Utility Help window, choose Print from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear).
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
Click First Aid.
If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
Click Repair Disk.If Disk Utility reports that the disk appears to be OK or has been repaired, you’re done. Otherwise, you may need to do one of the following steps.
If Disk Utility reports “overlapped extent allocation” errors, two or more files occupy the same space on your disk, and at least one of them is likely to be corrupted. Check each file in the list of affected files. If you can replace a file or recreate it, delete it. If it contains information you need, open it and examine its data to make sure it hasn’t been corrupted. (Most of the files in the list have aliases in a DamagedFiles folder at the top level of your disk.)
If Disk Utility can’t repair your disk or it reports “The underlying task reported failure,” try to repair the disk or partition again. If that doesn’t work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and then restore your backed-up data.If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

HT1212 I took the passcode lock off of my iPhone 5 and now I can't get on to my iPad. It is asking for the passcode and when I use the one that was set up it locks me out. How can I get past this?

I have the iPhone 5 and with the new sofware update it added a passcode lock. Same for the iPad. I removed the passcode lock from my iPhone and now I can access my iPad. It is still asking for the four digit passcode. I tried using the one that was orgingally programed and it disables it every time. How can I get past this? I have tried to do a restore and it still takes me back to the lock screen. Please help!

Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.
