Disk Partition says "Locked" and will not let me unlock using the perm.
Hello,
Just a quick question here, I recently set disk permissions on one of my partitions on each mac pro, I set the permissions for all enclosed items so that it set them over the whole disk. How do I undo this? There is a lock icon on the partition and I cannot access it...thanks
Yes they are system boot partitions, I did this because last time I re-imaged the computers they had a bunch of permissions problems, I didnt realize I would not be able to use the partition if i farmed out the permissions, I checked the box that said "Ignore permissions on this volume" and it still says "Custom" for all of them and will not let me access the drive even on the Admin account. If i use the disk utility to erase and then re-image my "Manage Drive" and set it back to a boot disk do you think that would work, thanks for the replies you guys are awesome.

This just started. When I close firefox it warns me that I am closing multiple tabs. and will not let me save them. the only option is cancel or OK. When I say OK and restart Firefox all my tabs are going:-( This happens every time now. I know how to get my old tabs back but every time I close Firefox it always warns me that I am closing multiple tabs.

JimDo not use "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear the "Browsing History".

Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.

after updating my Macbook Pro retina display to os x yosemite 10.10.2, the mause and track pad locks, and do not respond especially when using the Mac for a long period, please help, how can I solve this, I do not like feel like in windows, so I paid good money for this mack, I feel calm
Hi Buterem,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:

I downloaded the new version of Pages and it has reverted to the old version. It will not let me re-install the new version because it thinks it has it installed
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

We have untitled music bar on the screen. Hoe did we get it there and it will not let us get to the main screen. Help
Hey Pharryl,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Apple TV. If the device is unresponsive, follow these steps to restart it:
Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3180
If you can't restart your Apple TV because it's unresponsive, try the following:
- Hold down Menu and Down on the Apple Remote for six seconds, and then release when you see the indicator light on the Apple TV blink rapidly.
- Unplug the Apple TV power cord for three seconds, and then plug it back in.
Thanks,

My ipod 5g says it is 1969 and will not let me connect to the internet
When I charged my ipod touch 5g and it turned on it said it's 1969 and won't let me connect to the internet. I've restarted my ipod, I've tried resetting all settings including network and I tried connecting it to itunes but it won't connect to itunes due to an unknown error. How do I get my ipod to connect to the wifi and reset to the correct date and time?
Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has never been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this. -
I can't get my Apple iphone 4 to allow me to access anything (Phone functions only)after it comes up. No dialing, favorites or contacts, etc. What to do to fix it?
What is "locked", the phone or the laptop? When you say locked, what symptoms are you seeing that makes you say it is locked?
Without a working sleep/wake button, then you cannot perform the basic user troubleshooting steps. Your only choice at this point is to let the phone's battery die and see if you can get it reset by then plugging it into the charger. -
My grandson bought a ipod from a friend. We want to use our itunes music. It shows the old owners name and does not give us an
option to download any music.
Any help?
The previous owner cleaned out all the music, videos and pictures.
But not sure how to restore back to factory.Hi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Sorry to say that you cannot use an iPod Touch as an "external" drive, unlike the "Classic" etc. which I believe have this feature.
To transfer your library you will have to back it up to disc(s), a different type of HD or use a network to send the files over.
Good luck,
Dud.

How can I reboot my Touch when the screen is frozen and I cannot use the "slide to power off" feature?
Next try:
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I was able to download the current version of FireFox but when I tried to install, I got a message that FireFox is not compatible with my current os. What else should I consider or try doing to get FireFox to work?
