So yeah, I dropped my computer and nothing comes up. I'm using an apdapter to use a monitor I have to see if the computer still works. It shows the default picture of Leopard galaxy thingy but the login window doesn't come up so i can log in. What do I do????
I assume this is due to the fact that system detects your internal monitor as default one, and that is there where system sends main data. In order to force system send data to the external monitor, get a mouse and physical keyboard, close MB lid, and then press any key on the external keyboard.
when you get there, go to system preferences/display, and manually move the Apple upper bar to the external monitor, then choose mirror; ultimately, set optimal resolution. -
Computer still taking a long time to boot
I have a late 2013 21.5” iMac (Model: ME087LL/A) with a 1TB hard drive (5400 rpm). I just switch from Windows to Mac, so I tried to keep everything as simple as possible on the transfer of files. I had only added Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools.
Boot times and operation seemed normal so I transferred my music, pictures, and some files. My computer started running slow with just one user and started taking a long time to boot. I found that since I added about 24,000 pictures to iPhoto, the Mac was trying to send all these pictures to iCloud in the background. I stopped using iCloud for iPhoto and that seemed to speed up the normal operation once the computer is booted.
The computer still seemed to take a very long time to boot. It would now take 3 minutes to get from turning it on to being able to use Safari. I uninstalled Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools using each company’s uninstallers so I know they are completely off the computer.
Any ideas on how to get back to the fast boot time? I am only using about 150 GBs of the 1 T drive so I don’t think that is causing the issue. What should I expect for a boot time on a brand new Late 2013 iMac? Or should I try to re-install Maverick and try to get a fresh start?
Any advice would be appreciated so I don’t feel like I made the wrong choice going to Mac. I'm kicking myself because the computer was so fast when I just got it.Seventy one thanks for trying to help me out. I really appreciate it. Log is below. You are absolutely right. Kaspersky and WD look like they still have something (as well as google??). Is there anything else that stands out? How would I go about getting rid of them? Re-Install? Clean Re-Install?

i wanted to do trouble shooting, i put computer in safe mode & now i can not get out of safe mode. I've closed FF & re-started computer 3 times, even shut down computer, still in safe mode. What do i need to do to get out of safe mode?
Hi,
Please see this article: [[Firefox is stuck in Safe Mode]]
I hope that helps. Post back if not.
--Edward
EDIT: Just noticed that you already rebooted. You say that you "put computer in safe mode". Is firefox in safe mode or your whole computer?
If '''Firefox''' is stuck in safe mode despite reboot
* Check that the shift keys on your keyboard are not stuck down.
* Uninstall firefox and install again (your settings will not be lost as they are stored in your profile folder).
Let me know if neither of those works. -
I removed Final Cut Pro X , followed the instructions, However my computer still thinks that is installed and doesn't allow me to re install
Does it say it is already installed, or not compatible? If you have more than one boot volume attached, is it possible a copy is also on another drive/

Why does my iMac display keep shutting off? Computer still running in the background. I've tried unplugging and restarting, to no avail. The computer is well out of warranty - about 7-8 years old, running 10.6.8
Checked.... the settings had not been inadvertently changed, but I did move the scroll and reset them back to the original. Hasn't shut off again.... yet. Will re-post with follow-up one way or the other. Thanks.

I thought Adobe Acrobat X Pro was included with the CS6 creative suite download. My computer still has Acrobat X Standard installed. How do I get my computer to download the X Pro version?
Hi aczan1,
Welcome to the Community!
First, you would need to uninstall Acrobat X Standard and then while installing CS6 Suite, Acrobat X pro will be listed.
Go to Control Panel>> Program & Features>> Unintall a program/Add/remove programs to uninstall Acrobat X Standard
Thanks!

I have the Energy Saver setting set to NEVER on both, and my computer STILL goes to SLEEP after 1 hour. Please help!
My COMPUTER goes to sleep and disrupts my apple tv all the time. How can I fix this?That you are getting the BONG is a good sign, it's unlikely to be hardware if you are able to hear that.
Start by running SW update. It's not that there is a specific fix, but when updating it may rewrite some system files which may get this going again purely as a side affect. Worth a go, and should not harm the system.
Try reset the PRAM - Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
Hopefully one of these quick fixes works, otherwise we'll need to try isolate the issue next - so if still having a problem, I'd try create a new user and login as that user to see if the issue persists (which will tell us if it's system wide or user specific) -
dv 6809wm laptop. Computer still does not boot up when battery out and ac adapter plugged in?
It lights up initially for a split second when I push power button, but does not continue to boot up. When ac adaptor is put in it glows blue like it is supposed to. Any suggestions?i'm going to try to see if a different ac adaptor will work hopefully that solves the issue.

After working perfectly for two years my iTouch has suddenly stopped connecting to my Hub although my desktop computer still connects. I have tried everything I can think of, including suggestions off Google/You Tube but nothing makes any difference. Any ideas. Surely it is not fit for the scrap heap after two years, but is clearly no use as it is.
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Computer still sleeps with Energy Saver off
So in energy saver both of the scrollers are on Never and my computer still sleeps...please help
It sounds to me some sort of corruption is happening to your Energy Saver preferences. As a temporary fix you may want to try my Spindown Fix program which forces the Unix settings for Energy Saver to no longer go off. It does though have to be run at every Login (startup) to be effective:

If I cancel CC membership, will all downloaded Apps to my computer still work?
If I cancel CC membership, will all downloaded Apps to my computer still work?
The CC app can work offline for 90 days, after 90 days you need to be online to verify the subscription & keep it active, so if you stop the CC the app will stop working after the activation in server stops.

my mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?
When the display turns off, it is not clear whether the computer has halted, or whether the display subsystem has failed.
Those tests determine whether:
a) Your Mac software had stopped working OR
b) Only the display had stopped working
If the pressing the Caps lock light on the keyboard lights the Caps Lock light on the keyboard, some software is still running -- your Mac has not halted.
If pressing Control-Eject on the keyboard, followed by the Return key shuts down your Mac, the software was still running.
¿Software was still running?
--Yes, the problem is ONLY in the display subsystem
--No, this is a computer-wide problem such as a kernel panic

Firefox download fails if interrupted
My computer is far from my router, so it disconnects frequently for short periods of time. When downloading files, if I notice that I have disconnected before Firefox does, I pause the download, and continue it when I reconnect. However, if I do not,
