COMMAND+R Doesn't Work on MacBook

What happens when I keep getting this message, and when I try to restart and use command + R (which didn't work - i had to use OPTION after 30 restarts) and all that showed was a disk with an arrow under it and when I clicked it, it just went back to the Log In screen?
Its a MacBook mid2007 with Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
It caused for the last synch on my iPhone 6 to say that video files weren't supported and it left blank videos on my phone.
Did i loose all my videos? Please help

Hi If using command r did not get you to the recovery partition, you ether don't have it or the drive is corrupt and it wont open.And you also tried option and only got the startup volume. You could try option r. Are you able to boot into your desktop? Or use another mac. You should be able to use you apple id to look in purchases and re-download Lion. Then if you can using at lest a 10 Gig thumb drive copy the lion download as bootable to it and use that to repair your disk. If you get it downloaded do not open it. until you copy it.http://www.macworld.com/article/1161069/make_a_bootable_lion_installer.html

  • Cinema Display (clear) with DVI/ADC box doesn't work with MacBook Pro

    Cinema Display (clear) with DVI/ADC box doesn't work with MacBook Pro when plugged in with a dvi to mini dvi cable. Any ideas what to do to make it work? I lugged the 23" 2500 miles into the wilderness and I need help

    Okay, here's an update: the DVI to ADC adapter does work with the Apple displays that I have tried, but it won't work with the Formac. I have tried multiple time to contact them, but to no avail... they don't even respond to threats of posting my opinion of them, which is this:
    DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM FORMAC! They make quality products, but their customer service is a big time joke! They won't take care of you.

    Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

  • Right-Command Key doesn't work

    Well, on my PowerBook G4, there are 2 command-keys (I'm sure that's common).
    My right command key doesn't work what-so-ever. I tried using the keyboard viewer and it doesn't turn gray either. Funny thing, but when I press the LEFT one, both cmd keys turn gray.
    Well i dont know if its a missing driver or a setting, (maybe even a malfunctioning keyboard?) but if anyone can help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

    Sorry, my bad. Haven't read through it in awhile and thought it affected keyboard too, but looks like just trackpad and other issues described. You may just have a bad keyboard or something lodged under that key.

  • Command key doesn't work in several usual function.

    command key doesn't work in several usual function.
    Selected object does't change to transform mode by hold down command.
    and "command+2= lock the selected object " doesnt work as well..
    but, these shortcut is still ok. 
    command + c,v
    command + a
    command + select tool = whole select tool
    that is, the command key is not totally stopped.
    Im cs5 but I have had this trouble in cs4.

    causiu,
    It is possible that the issues may be caused by preference corruption or interference from other applications.
    You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps. Since you had it in CS4 too, the most likely is 5).
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer;
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (irreversible);
    4) Move the folder with Illy closed (reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options, especially Item 7) with the usual suspects;
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

  • Command + f2 doesn't work!

    Hi!
    Sorry for my english... but i try to explain my problem!
    I have an iMac27, two months ago i have bought a Dr. Bott for playing with my ps3. Ok, all works fine!
    Two weeks ago i came back from my holiday, i try to play but "command + f2" doesn't work!
    The problem is that it seems that command doesn't work because my mac doesn't try to seach any external signal... simply it do nothing! If i try "command + f1" or "command + f3", for example... they work!
    Can you help me!? My OS version is 10.6.4!
    Please, help me! Winter is coming and i have to play a lot!!!! :-D

    No, I'm suggesting that you test the ⌘F2 shortcut on something else, like Exposé (⇪). This is just to make sure that your keys aren't busted (or you could also just try using a different keyboard). If ⌘F2 works for Exposé, then go ahead and remove it from the Keyboard Settings to make sure your Dr Bott Video Link can use it again.
    As for checking why you're not able to receive a signal, are you sure you're using 720p from your PS3? Did you try using the HDMI cable on other devices (maybe connect your PS3 to an HDTV) to make sure it's not broken? This may sound obvious, but did you also check to make sure your Dr Bott is powered up (it might be dead; I dunno)?

  • Pressing D on boot to get into Diagnostic mode doesn't work. Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6.8

    My charger has stopped working all of a sudden for my MacBook Pro. I tried my friends charger and it works. I've seen a few people mentioning that their charger started working again after running a Diagnostic test at boot up by pressing "D" after powering up the computer.
    I see this instruction all over the web, but it doesn't work for me! I have the OSX DVD in the drive. Holding down "C" while booting makes it boot on the DVD, and holding the Option key will give me a boot menu. But it just boots normally while holding down "D".
    Am I missing something?

    Press D during startup
    Start up in Apple Hardware Test (AHT).
    Apple Hardware Test is included on the DVDs that are shipped with some Macintosh computers. If the copy on your hard drive becomes unavailable, use the DVDs to run Apple Hardware Test.
    For Intel-based Apple computers that shipped with Mac OS X v10.5.4 or earlier, Apple Hardware Test is located on the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 and should be included with your computer.
    For Apple computers that shipped with Mac OS X v10.5.5 to 10.6.7, Apple Hardware Test is located on the Applications Install Disc 2 and should be included with your computer.
    For some Apple computers that shipped with OS X Lion, if Apple Hardware Test cannot be found on the hard drive, an Internet-based version starts up instead.

  • USB mouse button doesn't work on MacBook Unibody

    Since the trackpad was not working, we have to use a USB mouse to navigate. After a few minutes, the mouse left and right button doesn't work. I can move the pointer around the screen and use the keyboard.
    Thoughts

    The same problem happens with a Bluetooth apple mouse. You can scroll up, down and use the secondary (the right click) The problem normally developes after the MacBook has been running for a while and gets hot underneath.

  • Embeded command line doesn't work

    Can you tell me why this doesn't work
    It won't work when there is a | or > involved in the syntax
    Runtime rt;
    Process prs;
    prs = rt.exec("tifftopnm sample.tif | gocr -");
    OR
    prs = rt.exec("ls > outputFile");
    And this example will worked fine.
    prs = rt.exec("ls -alt");

  • Command-D doesn't work

    Recently Command-D has quit working across numerous applications. All other Command- shortcuts appear to be working. I'm using a Mac Pro Dual-Core 3 GHz with 10.5.1. Any ideas and solutions would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry for the muddy question.
    I'm primarily using it in non-Apple applications, like InDesign (place file), Quicken (delete), and PowerCAD (delete).
    However, it doesn't work to Bookmark in Safari either.

  • Command q doesn't work

    command q no longer seems to work for me. it doesn't quit from any of the applications. (tried it in safari, firefox and a other apps)
    command w doesn't close the tab. command n doesn't open a new window and the list goes on.
    command a does work! selects all in the page.
    the keys are all good, nothing wrong with the keyboard.
    what/where can i check for the default behavior of these keys? i've tried resetting to defaults in the keyboard shortcuts under 'system preferences'.
    help!

    hmm, that's not it. thanks for your reply though.
    i've switched to other programs (using command tab) and it doesn't work.
    for example, right now, i have 'terminal', firefox, safari (and finder) running. i've switched to each of these programs and command q doesn't quit any of them. something is definitely hosed up.

  • Usb optical mouse doesn't work on MacBook Air

    Hi, I need a mouse for my MBA but I only found a cheap USB optical mouse that i've used several times on my pc and worked perfectly fine, I tried using it on my MBA but it doesn't work. I searched in system information to see if at least the mouse is detected and surprisingly it is detected. The mouse has no brand and i don't think it needs any type of driver.  What should i do?
    I have a MacBook Air mid-2012 running Mountain Lion.
