Discoloration: Does repair help?

OK, I sent my mid sept. macbook in for repairs because of the handrest discoloration. My dealer borrowed me a brand new one (newest gen) and now, after a couple of weeks I've got a nasty feeling that that is starting to go dark as well. Has anyone had the top changed on their 1st gen's, and does it actually make a difference or are Apple just putting the same problem-ridden tops on?

You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

    opps.  Long title there... The past few days my Mail app has started downloading multiple copies of e-mails from all pop servers.  This is only happening on my Macbook not other macs.  Deleting mail from server does not help. I ran ClamXav found 2 viruses deleted those.  Checked for software update and installed suggested downloads.  Problem still contintues.  Any suggestions?

    Folks,
    even after having repaired the inbox folder under "properties" a few times, I still had some e-mails where the contents are different from the subject line.
    In other words in the inbox there are two e-mails: one with subject line "abc", and another one with subject line "def".
    When I display the e-mail with the subject line "abc", the contents are from the e-mail with the subject line "def" in the in-basket.
    What else can be done to correct this problem?
    Thanks and best regards.

  • My Time Capsule has quit backing up - now spends all it's time "preparing".  I've tried the Apple suggestion of a reset which does not help.  All indicators seems to be OK.  Running OS 10.5.8 on G4 Powerbook, Time capule is 1st gen I believe.  Any ideas?

    Hello,
    Thanks for your message, I have attempted to repait the permissions as tou suggested.  The first time this produced a long list of exceptions and took quite a while, however although it said "Permissions repair Complete" when I ran it again there were still about 20 exceptions, I have repeated the procedure and this is unchanged.  The Time Capsule now does not spend hours "Preparing", but the backup attempt fails after a few minutes with the error message "The backup volume could not be mounted."  Any further ideas would be appreciated.   When I use Disk Utility I can't see the Time Capsule volume, if I could I'd be tempted to re-format it and start from scratch. 

  • What is going on with the Iphone4 home button.  I see lots of people having issues, but not resolution.  I am running 4.2, but based on what I have read, 4.3 does not help.  Apple has to do something about this, as it is affecting lots of people.

    etc. 
    I am running 4.2, but based on what I have read, 4.3 does not help.  Apple has to do something about this, as it is affecting a large portion of the user community.

    No they do not and no it is not affecting a large portion of the user community.
    If it is an actual hardware issue, the only fix is to repair or replace the hardware.
    If it is a software issue, restoring as new will fix it.

  • Disc Utility REPAIR Help

    Recently, I was trying to partition my HD with Boot Camp Assistant.
    The message returned was that "some files could not be moved".
    So then I started up Disc Utility and clicked VERIFY DISC.
    After that an error message comes up that I have to repair from my installation CD.
    The problem?
    I'm in Bangkok right now and the disc OS X 10.6 is in the UK.
    I was wondering if I could use my other disc OS X 10.5 to perform the repair instead.
    I'm not going to be back in the UK for awhile and really need to repair my disc.
    Any suggestions?
    Also, willl repairing my disc require me to back up my files in case of data loss?

    I think are being told that the Windows partition cannot be made because your files are too widely spread over your drive (i.e., the "some files could not be moved" message).
    There are several ways to try to accomplish what your want to do--if you successfully get your repair done. I am not sure if the 10.5 disk will do the job or that you should even try using this disk for the repair. Can you borrow a Snow DVD or go to an Apple Store for Snow repair help?).
    Given the repair, IMO, the best way to proceed is to make a bootable clone of your internal volume on an external and, then, restore/clone it back to your internal. This approach will defrag your drive. Test the clone after making it to be sure it boots. I would not use a defragger on OS X if I could help it. Doing so can be destructive. For casual cloning, just use Disk Utility. To clone using Disk Utility (DU):
    1. Start DU;
    2. Choose Restore;
    3. Drag your internal volume to the source box;
    4. Drag your external partition or volume to the destination box;
    5. Choose Erase Destination; and
    6. Click restore

  • OS X Mavericks installations fails after reboot, stuck. Safe mode does not help

    Quick Summary: Installation of Mavericks gets stuck after reboot, no safe mode boot, only recovery console works.
    Update:  Currently following procedure http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US
    I have upgrade 4 out of my 5 machines, but the most important iMac 27" mid 2010 went through with the installation and then got stuck on a grey screen with the apple logo and a spinning wheel for 6 hours.
    A few restarts did not help.
    Started from recovery a new download and install. But it ended up in the same end.
    Trying safe mode/boot, but does not finish
    Going back to recovery and try repair disk, does not help
    Going to recovery using terminal resetpassword and then setting the permissions for all login accounts back, no good.
    Going to recovery and using terminal to check /var/log of the mounted Macintosh HD.log shows at the end "The installation was successfull"
    System.log shows
    com.apple.kextd: Failed to send personalities to the kernel.
    Error: Couldn't send kext personalities to the IOCatalogue.
    Exited with code: 71
    Throttling respawn: Will start in 8 seconds.
    Resetting NVRAM/PRAM and reboot, waiting so far stuck but I still hear some disk activity, waiting a little bit longer.
    Any help?

    Do you have a Recovery HD from your previous systems?
    Boot Using OPTION key:
      1. Restart the computer.
      2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
          "OPTION" key.
      3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
      4. Select the desired disk icon from which you want to boot.
      5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.
    Look for another Recovery HD, although you need the OS 10.9 one if it's available. If it's not, then you will need to start over from scratch by erasing the drive then reinstalling 10.9.
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Why is my macbook pro running slow.  It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser.  I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out.  Would be super grateful.  :-)

    Hi.  This is my first time posting.  My Macbook Pro with Os X Mavericks has been running super slow since before I installed Mavericks so I'm pretty sure it's not the OS that has the problem.  It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser, particulary google chrome.  If mail is open...forget about it, down to a crawl.  I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out.  Would be super grateful.  :-)
    P.S. - Also, it sounds like something is loose inside my mac.  How should I proceed?
    Thanks in advance.

  • On my MacBook with Lion Safari does start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library did not help. Where can I find and remove all components (LastSession ...)?

    How can I reset Safari with all components? On my MacBook with Lion, Safari does not start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library does not help. Where can I find and remove all components as LastSession and TopSites?

    The only way to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.7 Lion is to restore OS X using OS X Recovery
    Instead of restoring OS X in order to reinstall Safari, try troubleshooting extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    If it's not an extension or plug-in issue, delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.

  • My navigation bar disappeared so now I cannot print, edit, etc. How can I get it back. The info on your page does not help.

    I may have accidentally hidden the navigation bar i.e. the one that gives you options like File, Edit, etc. the info you provide for getting it back does not help because it asks me to use those tabs, which are not there anymore. This prevents me from printing, etc.

    Use either the Alt or F10 keys to temporarily display the menu. Then in the View menu select Toolbars, then "Menu Bar" to make it permanently display the menu.

    If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required.  You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty
