  • Can't sign in on FaceTime on 2010 MacBook Air 10.6.7

    I can't sign in to FaceTime on my MacBook Air. It says my Apple ID is not right or that I should check my network settings.
    The strange thing is that it does work on my iPad 2. I'm using the same Apple ID and I'm on the same network. It also works on my iPhone on that same network. I'm even able to setup a FaceTime call between my iPhone and my iPad.
    So what's wrong with my MacBook?

    hoi Jordy,
    try my tip in this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15059382
    Changing the DNS may do the trick for your MacBook - at least for the network connection problem.

  • I cant log onto app store through my macbook air - an unknown error keeps occuring

    Ive been trying to log onto the app store and i cant manage to get on - the system keeps saying that there is an unknown error when i try to log on. I have tried to do the whole reset the system using the alt and power button (i bought this mac second hand so i also want to restore to factory settings). I was thinking that the reason app store wouldnt work is because the previous user might not have reset the system properly? i can log onto all the other applictions with my apple ID perfectly fine, its just with the app store. any help is hugely appreciated!!!

    The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

  • How can I zero out the memory on my macbook air?

    I have an 11 inch mid 2011 macbook air and cannot figure out how to erase the memory so that none of the data is recoverable. I booted from the recovery HD but when I went to the erase section of the menu, the security options button and the zero out empty space option were both greyed out. How can I clean off my Mac?

    You can't, and don't need to, zero an SSD in Disk Utility. Once you've erased it the data is unrecoverable.

  • Can I take off the keyboard from a Macbook air?

    I would like to use my macbook air as just a screen and use an external keyboard and trackpad. I want to use the Macbook in 90 degree view and it is uncomfortable to use it like that when the keyboard is right there. Is there a way that I can remove the hinges from the screen and the keyboard part and fold the macbook in a backwards position or remove the keyboard entirely- if I can remove the keyboard entirely what parts do I keep?

    Sebastian,
    The Mac Mini is essentially, for practical measure, a MacBook Air homologue for non-portable, desktop use. It is a basic Mac Computer for which you buy and use an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor. You don't use a tablet as a monitor, unless there is an app which might afford that functionality to the tablet device. Since both devices you mention are non-apple, you might consult a forum in which those products are more familiar. But perhaps there may be users here who might have insight.

    Stick the 10.6 disk into the machine and reboot holding the option/alt key down on a wired/built in keyboard.
    On the second screen, under the Utilities menu is a Password Reset, use it.
    Step by Step to fix your Mac
    What this will do is reset the password and the user account permissions in the process.
    You might have problems with Keychain afterwards, to fix that.

  • I can not log onto the App Store...

    it has been going on now for over 3 weeks...I had a lightning strike and blew out the on board ethernet ports on my Macpro so I use a ethernet to usb adapter now and that works fine for everything including iTunes but I can't log into the App Store, the error is "An unknown error has occurred" I have called and they told me to go to the Genius Bar...did that and the couldn't help and called support and they told them that they would look into it and get back to within 24-48 hours and I have still haven't heard a thing!!!  This is very frustrating and I have had several cases opened up about this and nothing is working.  Does anyone have any ideas on what to do?  Thank you.
    Charlie O. 

    Guess, you only have another issue with the app store problem. Some cannot login, some are caught into a loop of password prompts...
    All is related to Macs with MacOS 10.4.7 - so again.
    There are two different solutions trials, one is to go to close all applications then navigate to /var/db/crls and delete there the files crlcache.db and ocspcache.db - reboot the system, empty trash and see if this solved the problem.
    If not, second chance is to reset the certificates, mentioned here:
    Delete the files /var/db/crls/crlcache.db and /var/db/crls/ocspcache.db. These can be found using Finder’s Go >; Go To Folder menu (Cmd + Shift + G). This resets the cache of accepted certificates in the system. It doesn’t remove them, it just forces the system to rebuild the caches upon restart.
    Open Keychain Access (/Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access). Select Certificates in the Category picker on the left side. In the search bar, type in the word Class. Look through that list, and find any certificates that have a blue + symbol over their icon. These are the ones you need to modify.
    Select one that has a blue +, and hit Command + I. Click the disclosure triangle beside the “Trust” list to show the list of permissions. Now, what we need to do is to set this certificate to use the system defaults. However, for some reason, when you select it, it doesn’t save. So what you need to do is this. Under “Trust”, where it says “Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)”, change the dropdown menu to say “No Value Specified”. Then, close the window. It will ask for your administrator permissions. Then, open the info pane for that certificate again. Under “Trust” again, now set the dropdown that says “When using this certificate:” to say “Use System Defaults”. You can then close out of the info pane, and enter your password again. Do this for any of the certificates that have a blue + on their icon. There should only be one or two at most.
    Restart your system.
    So, as you see, it start again with reseting the certificate cache and next manually working the certificates, to ensure proper system setting...
    But there are evenly people who failed with this... but you can give it a try
    If all fails - then we have to wait for a fix from apple

  • How to see who are currently logged in the system through in EP

    hi,
    I want to see , who are currently logged in the system through in EP  , like al08 or sm04 in r3.

    Hi,
    Portal activity reports will help you in getting all the user details who are logged on to the portal.
    Portal activity reports help you which page or iview the users visited.
    There may be many content in the portal. But the monitoring people mainly wants what content people are mostly visiting. This can help them to update that content frequently. Not only that the content people are not visiting can be made more attractive or it can be removed also.
    using portal activity you will not get what content the user is accessed, but you can get the what content(iview/page) most users are visiting.

  • Can't log in to FaceTime with non-primary iCloud ID

    Hello,
    I use a family Apple ID for App Store, iTunes Match and photostream but use individual Apple IDs for reminders and contacts. The problem is, on my ipad I can't log in to FaceTime with my personal Apple ID. It will only allow me to log in with my primary Apple ID (the family ID). On my iphone it works because I associate FaceTime and iMessage with my cell number.
    Any thoughts? Thanks!

    KK,
    For some reason, a Mac using Facetime needs to be set to the time zone it is in.  It could possibly have something to do with the FT routers that your call is guided to.  In any case there were two Facetime users I know of, that got their Facetime working by resetting to the proper time zone.  I surely hope this works for you so you can start talking to your folks "across thepond."

    It sounds as though your iPhone is having some difficulty accessing the App Store servers when attempting to sign in. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    Unfortunately you have taken an Apple product outside of the area where Apple currently does business. There isn't legally a way around this. Apple cannot license apps to you where you currently live.
