Can the Thunderbolt Octopus cable be replaced?  I broke the cable.

I knocked my laptop off the table and it landed on the thunderbolt connector.  The cable will need to be replaced and I am hoping it is possible.

If the repair is too expensive, and you aren't using the Thunderbolt port on the back of the display, you could buy a Thunderbolt cable and connect the computer to the display's rear Thunderbolt port.

    No. Get it fix by making an appointment with the Apple genius bar.

  • Macbook air charges fine with the Thunderbolt screen connection but only sometimes with the 45 W chargers.

    My Macbook air charges fine with the Thunderbolt screen connection but only sometimes with the 45 W chargers. It seems to be the combination of the chargers and the computer. I was thinking whether the Thunderbolt screen has a larger power supply which easier activates the computer to actually receive the charge. It reminds me a bit of the Nokia Lumia 800 telephone, which when totally exhausted needs a strong charger to be activated again. I am as frustrated as most others.  I have got two chargers, and both of them sometimes work, other times not. Sometimes, they start working after a while. Is Apple meanwhile coming up with a solution or advice how to handle such situation?

    I just got my ATD and late 2011 MBP up and running. I've not tried running without the power adapter from the ATD plugged in, but I just tried and didn't have any problems with the display not waking. You may want to take your query to the ATD forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/peripherals/thunderbolt_display - perhaps someone there has experienced a similar issue.
    Good luck,

  • Just bought the iphone 5 and before syncing to my mac i took some photos then finally decided to sync it but it deleted ALL of the photos and videos and replaced them with the old pics i had on my iphone4.. i need those pics please help

    Nope.
    Did you fail to import them before restoring from backup?  If so, then they are gone.
    You should import all photos taken with the iphone to your comuter regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.

  • Can I do a 'bulk' find/replace operation in the metadata 'caption' field?

    I have about 3000 images in a geneology library in Lightroom.  I need to go through all the captions and make the persons' names consistent.  Is there a way, in Lightroom, or a 3rd party app, that will let me find all the "Bill Smith" occurances in the captions and change them to "William B Smith" (for example).  Editing the captions, one by one, in the metadata panel is way too tedious, and there a lot of other names as well as Bill Smith to work on. I know that I can find all the images, using the text search cabability.  It is isolating the string that I want to replace, and then individually typing in the correction for each image that is the problem.

    It'll be properly on sale as soon as I can figure out how to incorporate some licencing code from another, far cleverer plug-in developer.... But for now it's fully-functional and gives 90 runs for free.

  • Why can't I add, delete or replace icons in the dock?

    Several icons in the dock have been replaced by question marks. I deleted the question marks, then replaced the application icons in the dock, and they worked. But when I restarted the machine, the question marks reappeared for those applications.
    Even if I try to delete the question marks without replacing the application icons, the question marks reappear on restart.
    Any new applications I try to add to the dock do not appear after a restart either.
    Is the dock broken?

    No just the .plist file for the Dock has been corrupted.
    A bit of a overkill, but the free OnyX under the "Verify" has a Preferences checker, check the "show only corrupted .plist files" and run that.
    Write down all the corrupted .plist files (you might have more) and seek and destroy them, they will be automatically be rebuilt.
    Also it's good to run all the maintenance and cleaning aspects of Onyx once in a blue moon or if your experiencing usual behavior.

  • Is there a way to "Open All in Tabs" in a bookmark folder and have the new set of tabs replace or close the ones I already have open? Prior to v8 it use to do this.

    Used to be, if I had a blank tab open and I activated "open all in tabs" on a folder with 3 websites, I would get 3 open websites only. Since v8, the original blank tab stays open too. Is there a setting I can Change to fix this? Going back to close the original blank tab is getting frustrating.

    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
    Double-click that preference to change the value to '''false'''

  • If Apple EarPods just randomly decided to break into 2 pieces and get stuck in the headphone jack, will Apple replace or repair the iPad for free?

    After I was done listening to some music, I of course puller out the EarPods from the headphone jack. But then I noticed how the tip broke into 2, so half of the tip is stuck in the headphone jack. Since they were Apple EarPods, and I didn't inflict any damage to them, would I receive a free repair or replacement on my iPad?

    Are you still under warranty? You're going to have a tough time convincing them it wasn't your fault they broke, I predict. In any case, someone else had a good idea on one of these types of threads: take it to an electronics shop as they probably deal with this situation quite frequently.

  • Can I connect my old mac to my new mac using the thunderbolt to ethernet adapter

    I've got a lot of data to transfer from one mac to another, one with thunderbolt and one without. I was wondering if by using the thunderbolt to ethernet adapter I could connect the two macs in a target mode kinda way.
    I know people will answer with a lot of other options in how to do this, but I am specifically interested in whether or not this option is possible.
    Thanks!

    you can use the adapter with any Thunderbolt-equipped Mac running OS X Lion 10.7.4 or later, but you'll want to install the Thunderbolt Software Update 1.2.1 after having the 10.7.4 upgrade

  • How can I temporarily remove a RAID set but keep the data?

    I recently had to restore my Netgear ReadyNAS to factory settings, which meant that I needed to make a backup of its data and restore it afterwards. The only possible way to back up the 8.5Tb of data was to get 9Tb of WD Red disks and somehow use them - so my immediate thought was that the Mac Pro would be a good idea. I t had four drives in it, but three of them were not being used by the OS so they could be temporarily removed.
    So I replaced three of my four Mac Pro drives with new 3Tb drives and used Disk Utility to set them up as a JBOD. I then used this JBOD drive to back up the NAS and restore it again after I had re-installed its O/S (the whole thing took two weeks!!!).
    So now I'm in the following situation:
    * I want to tear down the JBOD set and take the three new drives out of the Mac Pro again and replace them with the drives I normally use there so that I can go back to making music (which is what I usually use it for).
    * I also want to be able to put the new drives back in and read the data as a JBOD again if needed (in case anything is discovered to be amiss with my ReadyNAS backup/restore operation) - let's say for the next month I'll plan to keep the old drives around for safety.
    How can I remove the JBOD set in such a way that I can set it up again using the same drives, and access the data (i.e. I don't want to delete the RAID set the usual way because that will delete the data too - apparently...)?

    Going to ask the mods to move this to MacPro, Hatter can answer your question, but I'm pretty sure if you power down and remove the RAID drives, you can put them in back again and boot up and the RAID will still be recognized as the info is stored on the drives themselves in the GUID/MBR of each drive in the set.
    Also you should know, there is a new MacPro coming and it doesn't accept internal drives, only external.
    So you should prepare and have some sort of external hardware redundancy for your data that isn't dependent on the Mac HFS+ formatting as Windows doesn't read that.
    Perhaps exFAT would be better as both platforms can read/write that, but if the drives are going to be used with a PC ever, they need to be formatted by Windows for exFAT to get it right. Check first before you commit to copying huge data over.
    Anyway research it, because if your MacPro dies, you might be up the creek and have some issues getting at all that data since it's in a RAID, external options might not work correctly or reliably for RAID.
    Also consider talking to the fellows at MacGuru's, they are external RAID box setup experts for Mac's, sounds like you need a RAID 5 box, gives redundancy and can connect to any computer.
    Hardware RAID is more reliable than software ones, cross platform as well.
    good luck.

  • Mac OS X 10.8 crashes after disconnecting the Thunderbolt display

    Wondering if anyone can help my Mac OS X 10.8.5 crashes after I disconnect the thunderbolt display.
    I normally work in the studio with my macbook connected to an external display.
    When I go to use it without the thunderbolt display it crashes - 4 times in one day, which really isn't ideal when your freelancing.
    I've checked my log files and I have a list of panic reports. I'm not too sure what I'm supposed to be looking for, but each of the reports refer to the graphics control. I've read online it might have something to do with the display sleep, so I've reset that.

  • How is the TB Hard Drive replaced so that the new hard drive recognizes one user license applications

    how is the 1TB Seagate Hard Drive replaced so that the new hard drive recognizes one user license applications

    Based on a thread I started and others I've read, I would backup your System with a bootable clone to an external HD. After the new HD is installed, use the clone backup to restore your new HD.  You can do this with Apps like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. That's what I plan on doing.

  • What is the file name of the thunderbolt driver?

    Does anybody know the file name of the thunderbolt driver that will allow me to access a thunderbolt drive from Windows? The BIOS see's the Promise controller/drive, but device manager doesn't see it. The boot camp support files from Apple are not installing automatically - it fails with no specific error except try again. I'd like to try and load the thunderbolt driver manually. Does anybody know the file name and folder this driver would be in?
    Thanks.
