I have a HP Pavillion dm4. Operates windows home premium. 64 bit The dvd drawer stopped operating properly. Suggestions? Thx ed

What do you mean by it stopped operating properly? Does it no longer open or does it not read DVDs? Can you explain more on what the issue is?

    The simplest operation your Mac can do is start up with the Option key held down. The code is all in ROM. It uses a One size fits all resolution to light up the display and draw an icon for each potentially bootable Volume.
    The most effective thing your Mac can do when confused is to start up using the Shift key. It does one pass of Disk Utility "Repair Disk" then boots up with minimal extensions loaded and ask you to login. But if your Mac is really sick, it may never get there.

    my iPhone 4 has just shut down.  Rang the phone then vibrated for 2 minutes bank screen, will not turn on, also tried charging and will not charge.  Any suggestions?  I did download a ringtone app and went on to iTunes to sync!. 

    Try charging the iPhone via a wall socket for at least 30 minutes then try a reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

    Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
    Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

  • Hi I have been given a  two year old MacBook pro and have downloaded the latest up dates but safari will not open. Any suggestions how to fix this would be appreciatedpro.

    Hi
    I have been given a MacBook Pro and have downloaded all the recent updates.
    Safari will not open.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be appreciated

    OK, the only thing that I can suggest at this point is to take the machine to your local Apple Store and have them download and install the latest version of Safari. It's likely something that they'll do for free if you get a nice Genius...
    I don't know what I was thinking about - finely figured out that you MUST have an iOS or other device!
    Sorry we couldn't solve the problem... hopefully, you've a nearby Apple Store? Or an AASP?

    I will check.  Can the security update be installed if you can no longer open the Mac App Store app?
    I was listening to the MacCast podcast and the host had a similar issue and did something similar to the link below.  I am concerned that I may mess something up by doing this.

    Well, if it's not off, that means it's on.  So naturally it will still not roate.

    Plug it into the computer and start iTunes. Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for 10 seconds, then release the power button and continue to hold down the home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected. See if that works

  • I have an ipad2 and my iTunes page has froze.  Touching or tapping will not unfreeze it, any suggestions?

    I have an ipad2 and my iTunes page is frozen.  Touching and tapping will not unfreeze it.  All of my other apps work fine, but when I go back to iTunes it is still frozen on the same screen, any suggestions?  Thanks, Alan

    Have you tried closing the iTunes app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with iTunes 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My MacBook Pro will not start up, any suggestions?

    My MacBook Pro will not boot up. I was aware of something odd when I switched it off a couple of hours ago  now when I push the 'on' switch something starts - fans I think, and the little indicator light on the front. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

    I had the same issue I bought my MacBook Pro in Jan. my harddrive was bad and they had to replace it. I know the guy held down the shift botton for a little then pressed the power botton while still holding down the shift botton and it turned on but not completely since my hard drive was bad.

  • My video rental will not play. Any suggestions?

    I downloaded a video rental, and it will not play.  I get the message that my rental will start, and I have 24 hours to watch it.  Once I click 'continue', the movie will not play.  I checked the forums for information, but I couldn't find anything.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    @ sberman - All good questions, but the issue is being resolved as we speak.  I downloaded a video rental to my iTunes 11.0.2 on my MacBook (OSX 10.6.8).  I was trying to watch the rental on my machine, but as I said, nothing would play.  To resolve the issue, I contacted Apple Support by submitting an issue ticket through iTunes.  They reset my purchase/rental, and gave me some steps to try (upgrade iTunes, ensure download is complete before disconnecting from the internet, etc., etc.).  Hopefully this works!
