  • Charger stays green, battery won't charge and MacBook won't start up

    My son just gave me his old MacBook.  While visiting him it worked fine, stayed charged up a long time.  When I got home & plugged in the charger and it stayed green, didn't turn amber. Read the user manual and checked the battery level which is 1 blinking light only.  It won't power up (I tried all the troubleshooting tips on pg 54) and the battery is not charging.  Does anyone think I just need a new battery or do you think I need a new power cord?
    So excited to have my first MacBook and now it won't start!  I'm an  unhappy camper :-(

  • Issues with iCloud - syncing Notes between iPhone and Macbook

    Why won't my Notes sync between my Macbook Pro (Mountain Lion) and my iPhone 5?  The iPhone and the Macbook Pro are both linked to the same account, iCloud is turned on on both, and I've tried signing in and out of iCloud.com, but it doesn't seem to work.

    First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone'  or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing.

  • How do I sync Notes between iPhone and Macbook, preferably using a cable?

    I was running Lion before I upgraded to Mavericks.  I would sync notes via iTunes using a cable. 
    My understanding is that you have to use WiFi and iCloud with Mavericks, which if true is a really dumb limitation and a problematic one.  I do not have WiFi at home and often not when traveling.  But I do have a cable and my Macbook.
    Is there no way to sync Notes with a cable?

    At a standstill on a solution so I retried other suggestions I have found on various threads.  I have done this specific process multiple times but luckily this time it worked.  What helped was - on MBP went to Settings > iCloud then unchecked Notes.  Said ok to delete Notes from MBP (my most recent version is on my iPhone).  Waited about 5 min then went back to Settings > iCloud checked Notes, said ok to merge and now my Notes on iPhone and MBP are the same.  Will have to see what happens.  I had my phone connected to MBP vis USB and used wireless during process.  Hope this helps with your problem also.

  • I am unable to successfully install itunes 10.5. I can download it, but when I go to install the program it says that a program could not be run and it won't give the name of the program. I have the vista 64-bit system.

    I cannot install iTunes 10.5. I can download it, but when I go to install it says that a program cannot be run and it won't give the name of the program. I have the Windows Vista 64-bit system.

    That would be my first guess.  You might be trying to install the 32 bit version of the program.
    Update the thread with more info on your apple software etc if its a 64 bit install you're trying to perform.

  • Apple Aluminium Wireless Keyboard - Bluetooth setup sees the keyboard but then green light flashes and it won't pair

    I am desperately hoping someone can help me out here...
    I have a 1st generation aluminium Apple Wireless Keyboard — the one that needs three batteries, as opposed to two — and it refuses to pair with any of my three Macs.
    I was originally using it — for a few years — on an old G4 Mac Mini running Tiger then later on, Leopard.
    I recently sold the Mini but in the days leading up to the sale some strange things were happening with the keyboard ...the number '7' key became non-responsive 90% of the time and the Keyboard Viewer app showed it as being constantly pressed down. Every other key was working 100% ok.
    Fast forward a few days after the sale of my Mini: Now when I try to connect the keyboard to any of my other Macs, the Bluetooth Setup sees the keyboard no problem at all but when I click 'Continue' to go the the pairing stage, the process just keeps failing!
    Whenever I turn my keyboard on I get the expected solid green light for two or three seconds, but after that the keyboard's green light keeps repeatedly blinking until I turn the keyboard off again.
    I did notice that the Bluetooth Setup will only ever see the keyboard in those first few seconds when the light is a solid green ...if I wait until the lights starts blinking and then start up the Bluetooth Setup, it does not see the keyboard at all.
    If anyone can shed any light on this, I would be enternally grateful!!!! ...especially as I was recently made redundant — that's 'Laid-off' for any Americans reading this! — and I would rather not have to buy yet another expensive Apple keyboard when I'm jobless and really should not have to!!!
    I read about a lot of people who's Macs sinply don't see their keyboard, but it's extra frustrating for me as my Macs do see the keyboard but won't bloody well pair with it!
    Thanks again to anyone taking the time to read this!

    The keyboard and mouse should have come from the factory already paired to the Mac. But if it didn't see this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1809

  • Toner lights and power light blinks and printer won't work

    The ink lights are blinking in sequence along with the power button.  I have changed all of the ink cartridges with the correct 920 type and have made sure they are all seated correctly.  I have also flipped the cartridge carrier lever and reset that.  Everything seams to be fine.  My computer tells me that all the ink levels are full after inserting the new cartridges.  I have rebooted the printer with and without the usb connection, cleared all printer jobs and it still keeps blinking and won't print.  What else can I do??  Appreciate any suggestions.

    Hi @salvador64 , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're experiencing printer issues. I would like to help!
    I would recommend performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I'd also recommend  running through the steps in this document:

  • How do you sync notes between ipad and macbook pro

  • Dock, Expose, Dashboard freeze and macbook won't shut down.

    I got a new Macbook about 2 and a half months ago and since then i have this problem with dock, expose and dashboard where they just suddenly don't respond.
    This has happened about 10 times so far and i can't think of anything that causes it.
    The problem basically consists of the Dock freezing and not responding and the f9, f10, f1q and f12 buttons not responding for Expose and dashboard. I try to shut it down properly but nothing happens and then the whole thing starts to act slowly. I am then forced to force shut down the Macbook.
    When I started up again last night after it happened again it was acting really slowly and froze for a few minutes.
    Through all of this all I had open was itunes, limewire, msn and firefox.
    I tried force quitting finder and it didnt help. Neither has repairing or verifying disk permissions.
    If anyone ahs any help it would be a great help!
    Thanks!

    Any suggestionsplease?

    Sign out/sign in to iCloud on your Mac.

  • I am trying to get iOS 7, but I need to download iTunes 11.1 first. when i try to install it, it says that some files could not be saved and it won't install

    My macbook air will not download itunes 11.1 because some of the files could not be saved? Need it to download ios 7

    That would be my first guess.  You might be trying to install the 32 bit version of the program.
    Update the thread with more info on your apple software etc if its a 64 bit install you're trying to perform.

  • HT1296 My computer with Windows 8.1 will recognize my ipod touch but only sees the pictures not the music and it won't sync.

    I have an iPod Touch and when I connect it to my computer it shows up but when I select it only the pictues show up.  It does not recognize the music files on my iPod.

    See

    - I would start with           
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - New cable and different USB port

  • Song did not install properly and now won't play

    I pre-ordered an album, and when it came round to installing it, I was in an area with a weak internet connection. At one point during installation, the internet signal temporarily cut out, causing the song to not install properly. I have a few seconds at the beginning of the song that has the audio in it, but after that the song stops and does not play any more. I need to know if there is a way to reinstall the song, or redeem it some other way. I have tried to create an AAC version of the song, but an 'unknown error (-3)' message appears. Is there any way I could reinstall that one song?

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music (or if it re-downloads with the same problem) then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • "Do not disconnect" message and computer won't recognize iPod

    Hi,
    This morning I made the simple error of unplugging my iPod without safely ejecting it first--a moment's inattention and now I'm stuck.
    I plugged it back in and tried to safely remove it as usual. The "remove this peripheral" window appeared but froze, with the hourglass hanging there.
    I looked in the iPod User's Guide and it suggested rebooting the machine, so I did. The situation didn't change: the iPod said "Do not disconnect," it was not showing in the Windows Explorer or in iTunes, and the "safely remove" procedure froze.
    I looked up online iPod help, following the link in iTunes, and tried "resetting"--didn't work. The "do not disconnect" message didn't budge.
    I tried again with different USB ports--no luck.
    I restarted my computer again. The iPod appeared in the Windows Explorer but not in iTunes. I tried to eject it safely through the system tray icon and was told "Windows does not recognize this peripheral. Try again. If Windows still does not recognize the peripheral, replace it." I tried to eject it via Windows Explorer and got another error message basically saying "I can't do anything with this drive."
    The other two steps in the "five Rs" are "Reinstall iPod and iTune software" and "Restore your iPod." Both of these are impossible if the computer can't communicate with the iPod.
    So my computer can't communicate with my iPod, and my iPod thinks it's still connected to the computer, so I can't use it. All because I made one thoughtless error and unplugged the iPod incorrectly. The iPod wasn't even in the process of updating or anything, it was just sitting there. Surely I'm not the only person this has happened to?? What on earth can I do?
    Meanwhile it's really inconvenient since I'm leaving on vacation in a couple of hours and I had been planning on using the iPod-digital camera connector to store my photos on the iPod while traveling in Burma where I will have no access to computers.

    Try resetting the iPod by holding the menu and center buttons for 6 to 10 seconds.
    If that doesn't work, put it in disk mode http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651 and then connect it to the PC and restore it with the latest ipod updater (Version 06-28-2006) You can download the latest here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
