Do not have installation disk...but recently got new hd...help
I have one of the first macbooks out in the US. It has 2g proc. 1gb ram and originally came with Mac OS X Tiger. 2 days ago I got the clunking sound from my hd when i started up, and then the ? and folder icon. I know my hd is pretty much done and have already bought a new hd. The problem is that I dont have my original installation disks (I am in australia and they are somewhere in storage back in the US).
My friend here has an installation disk but will not work. Wondering if i need to wait until someone can get to my storage and find the disks and send them to me, or I can some how work around this problem to a more immediate solution.
I also have a leopard installation disk back in the US which i would like to put back on also. Do I need to get the re-installation disk or can I use the leopard disk.
If anyone could help me out with some suggestions. Thanks
Thanks, for the info. Do you know if now with more software being downloaded, you think I could contact apple and they could give me some sort of code or let me download something onto a usb or external hd and boot from there. I mean my computer's serial number is registered to me. Thanks for the other help, anyone else know if this is possible?
Else, I will be waiting for my cds to be sent from the US.

Hello,
the way is written there Activation & deactivation help >>> (see there only to understand the procedure) Common activation problems >>> "Activation limit reached for [product]. This serial number has already been activated on 2 computers." "Maximum activations exceeded."
>>> How to deactivate or sign out >>> A single license for Adobe software lets you install the applications on two computers—for example, at home and at the office. However, you can use the software on only one computer at any given time.
If you want to install the software on a third computer, deactivate the software on the computer on which you will no longer use the software. Then, activate the software on the new computer.

I have a macbook pro 17" 1,1 model (early 2006), but I do not have installation discs.
If I order a replacement, what version is it?
Can I install the latest version 10.8.4 in 1,1 model?
If it is possible, what I have to do to get it done? And the price?
ThanksMacBookPro1,1 can only run Mac OS X 10.6.8, as it has got a 32-bit processor.
If you order replacement DVDs, Apple will send you DVDs with the original Mac OS X version that came with your Mac, in this case, Mac OS X 10.4.5.
If you decide to get replacement DVDs, Apple will only charge you for the delivery -
i want to downgrade my 2011 mac mini server to mac os x i have the disks but the mini willl not reboot the apple changing to a circle with a line please help-
bpruse, I may be completely off-track for your issue, but I had a similar situation where I wanted to downgrade a Mac Pro from Server to plain OS X and it would not boot from the OS X install disk.
I was attempting to use a full-install OS X.6.x disc with an earlier SL version than that which originally came installed on the Mac Pro. After two or three hours of fiddling, I figured it out and used the discs that came with the system.
However, I don't know how that would work in your case if this is the mini server-version. I'm sure the disks would only have Server on them. Worse-case scenario, find out which X.6.x the OEM disc is installing and get an OS X disc with a new installer.
HTH.

i recently purchased used macbook pro 15" but unfortunately i erase the harddisk and did not have back up but when i try to reinstall the mac os x lion it ask me the id password,how i can purchse the mac os x lion.
where from i can buy the mac os x lion because i am using windows base system when i try to buy from apple web side it show in app store only not in itunesHave you tried booting from the Recovery HD to reinstall Lion?
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.
You will need the Apple ID and password used to purchase Lion. If you have not purchased Lion, then you will need to purchase the Snow Leopard DVD and install Snow Leopard then update it to 10.6.8 to access the App Store where you can purchase and download Lion under your own Apple ID. Or you can purchase the Apple USB Lion installer flash drive at any local Apple retailer or the Online Store. -
Not used my G5 Powermac (late 2004) for about 2 years. Was going to set it up for the lads to do school work.
However it only boots in with Installation disk, but colour dots on white screen and message comes up to reboot machine. However nothing happens apart from me keep trying. Also the numerous fans get louder and louder and louder.....
Any ideas folksCan you please provide details on the exact model?
For a start, the PRAM battery is likely dead. PRAM tells the computer which drive to start with, other basic information. Still, you can usually get the computer to start, though bad PRAM is unpredictable and could be stopping that.
Some computer models use software to control cooling fans. If there's no software commands they automatically go into high speed to prevent overheating. Your software obviously isn't loading, so runaway fans. -

I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually.There is also still enough storage space. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?
The HT1766 article you attached lists the prerequisites for an iCloud backup:
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. After you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in Settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage, it will run on a daily basis as long as your device is:
Connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi
Connected to a power source
Screen locked
You can also back up manually whenever your device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi by choosing Back Up Now from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. -
my ipod got wet, when it dried out completely, i powered back up but i do not have wifi capabilities. Anyone know how to help?
What does when have to do with it? Liquide damage is not covered by the warranty.

When did you purchase it?
For the poster, try here if it is your problem.
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
HOwever, if you rerestored to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then that points to hardware damaged caused by the water. Service is required. -

If you ever registered it with adobe, you can get your serial number by going to the main page of adobe.com and looking for My Adobe. Work through the links there and you can retrieve your serial number from your adobe store account.
