Can't start computer because of coloured wheel

We need more details. What were you doing before the colored wheel? You can always press the off/on button on the top right and hold it down to force the computer to turn off and then restart using the same button.

Can't start itunes because it gives me a message thta MSVCR80.dll is missing in my computer

I can't start iTunes because it gives me a message that MSVCR80.dll is missing in my computer

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

It sounds like you destroyed your boot partition and the recovery partition. Depending on it's age, your MacBook Air might be able to do a net boot. Plug and ethernet connection into it and attempt to boot. If it has the right firmware, it will find a net boot configuration on the net and boot that. Then it will give you a Recovery Partition like display and allow you to reinstall the OS X version that came with it.... assuming that it was Lion or ML. If your computer came with Snow Leopard, then even the net boot won't work.
At that point you need a bootable USB Key, or an external DVD drive AND a Snow Leopard installation DVD.
An Apple Store, if there is one nearby, MAY be able to get you going again. However, whatever is on the SSD now will be toast too.

Can not start computer

when staring my MacBook, after 15 seconds computer shuts always down. can not start it. how can I get into the system and start it?

Hi
Firstly the standard language of the Toshiba form is English and all postings which are written in other languages will be deleting.
Now about your problem: Its strange! Did you try to start the OS in safe mode? You can start the OS in safe mode by pressing the F8 button if the unit boot up.
Then you can try to check the system.
If this procedure doesnt work, well in my opinion the simplest way to solve this issue is to recover the OS with the delivered Recovery CD.
Hope its understandable for you and hope that these tips will help you
Bye

Unresolved kernel trap 0x600 - now can't start computer!

Our Mac G4 (10.2.8, dual 1GHz, 1GB RAM) has been suffering from more and more frequent kernel panics and crashes (see my previous post: http://tinyurl.com/hxut9), and now seems to have died completely. This morning (it is left on all night, as it runs a kind of server) the screen was blank but the light was on, indicating it was running. No joy waking it up, so I held down the power button until it restarted. It then gave me the following message:
"Unresolved kernel trap (cpu 0): 0x600 - Alignment DAR = 0428005e2 PC=0x0008d3d8"
repeated all the way down the screen.
It now won't start up: it hangs on a screen with a blue background and white box with the progress bar stuck on "Waiting for network port mapper". All external hardware except screen and mouse are unplugged - usually, there's an external hard-drive and a scanner plugged in.
Can anyone help?
Some background: as I said in my previous post, we've had odd network issues with it recently, where it could access the internet, but the outside world couldn't access it (for the server, or for scheduled backups across the network). This was the case with the firewall on or off. An extended hardware test eventually (34th loop) gave the error code "modm /2 /8", which would suggest to me there was a problem with the MODEM, but we don't use that - only the network card. Disk Utility gave no errors.
Any help / advice would be much appreciated! Although we have a network backup of the data, we can't access it without that computer, and I need it urgently!
Thanks very much,
Alex
PS. Update: on the 4th go, it has now managed to restart! I am not optimistic about this lasting though, so would really like to resolve the issues...

Can not start Mavericks because of Time Mashine Backups on the Drive

I want to update OS Lion with Mavericks. But if I try to start it i got the answer that i can not use my drive for that, because it was used for Time Mashine backups before. I never wanted to use my drive for those backups. I got an second drive for them. How do i find this backups and put them in the Basked so i can start Mavericks

If you have a good time Machine Backup of your drive on which you want to upgrade to Mavericks, one option is erase the drive and install a clean installation of Mavericks. This will erase the designated drive and overwrite it, so please ensure you have a good backup or two. Once you have a clean installation, you can restore from the latest TM backup of your drive, what you need.
Your Mac internal drive is usually never used for TM backups. What type of Mac year/model do you have? Do you use an external drive for TM backups? During the installation, please ensure you are pointing to the correct drive.

Mavericks update? Help please! I need to know how I can update my computer because right now, it's just not happening.

I've looked at the tech specs and everything seems to be fine. I have the 2GB of memory, and the 10.6.8 operating system but it still won't let me update? Is there something I may have overlooked? What else can I try? I really need to keep my computer updated! I've left it alone before and it just gave me problems until I put the new operating system on. I can give more details if need be!

The only possible update for a model 2.1 is OS 10.7 Lion. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is $19.99.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

Can't deauthorize computer because it crashed

I have five computers authorized for iTunes. My MacBook Pro craashed and i have to replace the hard drive.
Since i don't have it to deauthorize, how can i do it so i can authorize it when i replace the hard drive?
Thanks

Are you sure you even need to authorize it when replacing the hard drive? I'd do that first and check.
About deauthorizing specific computers - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3809988 - Only, if you have physical access to the computer, otherwise you have to deauthorize all computers. De-authorize all computers button may not appear until you actually have 5 authorized and you can only do this once a year.

Can´t authorize computer because of a problem on the aktivation server. Can´t deauthorize either, get the same message.

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Can't start iTunes because of an error.

I've just connected my iPod mini to my computer. There is a little waiting time and then it popups with a note saying
"iTunes has encountered an error and quits. We apoligize the experience."
Then i have reported the problem.
I was then thinking about a failure in the startup of iTunes, so i repaired iTunes with the setup thinking that this would work, but no.
How am i supposed to update my iPod and listening to my music?!
