Bring up the System Information via the Apple ➙ About this Mac ➙ More Information menu and check under the Hardware if the optical drive is recognized. Are you able to use the drive from the Finder? If not then it may be a hardware issue so try this: Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test

My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. It was working fine now I cant get it to output to the Tv. Any ideas?

My Macbook pro no longer outputs to my vizio led tv. It was working fine now I cant get any picture. It just says no signal. It is not the hdmi or the adapter because it works fine with my other tv. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Please be as specific as possible. Thanks. BTW--I am using the mini dvi to hdmi adapter in case that was unclear.

Since you say that the same connectors work on your other TV is suggests that the fault is not in the connectors but your Vizio TV. I would check the settings on the Vizio TV. Verify that is is set to receive HDMI input. Perhaps you or some one else has inadvertently changed them. Pressing the wrong buttons on a remote control device can do that. (I am assuming no changes were made in SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAYS)

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

FaceTime was working fine then stopped. Wants me to sign in but fails to activate. I rebooted my IPad but that didn't help.

Wifi was working, and now does not discover any networks

I had wifi working, and now it does recognize any of the 6 networks that everything else discovers, any sugestions?
I read all related posts, did the software update to latest version, restarted several times, and did wifi reset. Actually my statmenet above is not entirely true. It does discover the network and connects when I place the device on top of a router, but moving to 50cm away from it and the connection disconnects and there are no networks discovered. I have tried it with 2 different routers, both of them are working well with my blackberry and laptop - and this was also working with the ipad before.

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
If this does not work, then restore the iPad to its factory settings and start again.

Audigy 2 Platinum used to work fine, now it doesn'

Hi,
I've been using my audigy 2 Platinum to record myself playing guitar for the past 2 years. I have my guitar amp hooked up (via send input on the back of the amp) to the Line In 2 (MIC IN 2) input. Lots of the time ill be up late recording stuff, so i turn my master volume down on the amp (so it doesn't come out of the amp) and just have it come out of my pc speakers. This time, the sound thats comming out of the speakers is just ugly noise. When i'm not playing anything it just hums. When i play something it just sounds like crap. I thought at first it might just be the speakers, so i recorded something and listend to it on different speakers, sounded exactly the same. So next thing i tried was a different guitar amp. Same thing. So i then opened up my tower to see if anything looked strange, everything looks fine. Next i uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers thinking that might help, sure enough, no help. I came here and read the FAQs and tried anything that sounded like it might help. Still havn't the same problem. I am completly baffled now. Is it possible i could have damaged it the last time i used it's If anyone has any ideas for me please let me know. I am running WinXP service pack 2. Thanks
Edit. I have also tried different cables.Message Edited by zedfour on 09-20-2005 02:24 AMMessage Edited by zedfour on 09-20-2005 07:25 PM

Hi Louie,
Thanks for confirming that is the correct directory. I agree cloning directories isn't the proper solution and would like to help identify what actually went wrong. Perhaps a mapping was removed from CF Admin. It's intriguing that expandPath('/secure') resolves to the proper directory but <cfobject name="getreqstatus" component="secure.common.getreqstatus"> throws an error that it can't find the getreqstatus.cfc that's located in secure's "common" subdirectory.
Just to be clear, is C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev the website's root directory? And is there also an Application.cfc file at C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\Application.cfc as well as the one at at C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\secure\Application.cfc?
Could you create a file named bar.cfm w/ this code?
<cfscript>
writeOutput(expandPath("/secure"));//should return "C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\secure"
writeOutput("<br>" & expandPath("/secure/common"));//should return "C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\secure\common"
writeOutput("<br>" & expandPath("/secure/common/getreqstatus.cfc"));//should return "C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\secure\common\getreqstatus.cfc"
writeOutput("<br>" & fileExists(expandPath("/secure/common/getreqstatus.cfc")));//should return "YES"
writeDump(var=new secure.common.getreqstatus(), format="text");//should return "[cfc1] component secure.common.getreqstatus"
</cfscript>
Then could you place a copy of that file at C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\bar.cfm and C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\bin\xxxx-Dev\secure\bar.cfm, and then run both (so basically, www.yourdomain.com/bar.cfm and www.yourdomain.com/secure/bar.cfm) and see what is displayed?
Edit: Please rename or remove the cloned directories (i.e. the /secure/common within the calling routine's directory) before running the above.
Thanks!,

IDVD was working and now it doesn't

Last spring I created a movie in iMovie, shared it with iDVD and created a DVD using iDVD. It worked wonderfully. The movie turned out perfect, plays perfectly in my DVD player. I was thrilled. Now I want to create another DVD using iDVD and I can't get it to work. It opens the program and then freezes and I can't even get the initial screen to open, the beach ball just keeps spinning and spinning. I've tried reloading the software and I've tried repairing disk permissions. Nothing works. How do I get iDVD to work again???

Welcome to discussions!
Trash the iMovie and iDVD preference files.
*Quit iMovie and iDVD.*
Locate a file named com.apple.iMovie.plist and one named com.apple.iDVD.plist and get rid of them. Both apps will create new preference files the next time they run.
Then, empty the trash and run a permissions repair from the Disk Utility folder.
The files are located here:
Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iMovie.plist and
Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iDVD.plist
Also, check to be certain that all of your apps are updated to the latest software updates. (QuickTime, iDVD, OS X, ext)
Then run another permissions repair.

Premiere Elements 11, Windows 8, Was Working Fine, Now 'Has Stopped Working'

I have just finished a project successfully, burned a BluRay with acceptable result, then shut down for the night. While viewing the BluRay, I saw a couple of glitches I wanted to fix, and the menu did not appear, so re-opened the project this morning. Thinking a stop marker would fix the menu not re-appearing, I inserted one at where I thought the end of my video was. I then found an unnecessary clip at the end that had slipped by me, making the end of the video longer, and likely the problem with the main menu not coming back. I deleted the clip. I rendered, saved, and played, but the playback wouldn't start. I closed and restarted about 5 times, same result. Now, Premiere Elements does not start at all, I get the splash screen, then the Windows box saying the program has stopped working and Windows will be in touch with me when they find a solution. Any ideas? I de-selected a sound device in Control Panel while the program was running, but have undone that action and the program will not start. I appreciate the help.

ATR, thanks for the quick response. I tried some of your suggestions (from another related issue) in troubleshooting this one.
Good info on the stop marker, I will remove it.
Long story short, I have managed to re-install the program and get it to start. After the third time, the combination seems to be to Remove my preferences, Remove downloaded content, and Deactivate Product. I was reluctant to do the deactivation checkbox, I downloaded the program and was concerned about being locked out, Adobe thinking this was another illegal install.
I started the program gently (giving things a long time to load, light on the hard drive being the main indicator) and was able to reload the video that seemed to cause the problem. Rendered, played, edited, no problems at this point.
As to what may have caused the trouble initially, I'm not sure. I have speakers run off the analog onboard sound, with a microphone connected. I also have a USB headset w/ microphone that I use for narration and latenight listening. These devices don't seem to know about each other, and changing their status in Control Panel does not translate to a current Elements session. In Elements preferences, I enabled the analog speakers. From there, things went downhill. The sound wouldn't play, then the play would not start the video in editor, then the program would not start at all.
I really like this program so far. I used Elements 1 and 2 way back when (with a computer to end all computers) to get all of our VHS recordings onto digital media. I did some editing and made some videos, then got away from it for a few years. We started diving and I got a GoPro camera. It didn't take too long to figure out the computer I had wouldn't do it for the new video formats. So, I now have the computer to end all computers to take care of the task. This has been the first glitch I've had in Elements 11. I expected a great deal more trouble with Windows 8.
Anyway, thanks again. If I find a recurring issue here, I will be sure to post it.

My 7th gen nano was working fine, now no sound

And yes, I tried two different sets of ear buds and they were both pushed in all the way. It's worked fine for months, now this morning everything appears normal, but there is no sound output. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hey live_music_fan,
I know you have a 7th generation and the article this information is from is for the 6th gen, but the steps should still apply. If you haven't already, I would run through the following:
Check the volume setting.
Try adjusting the volume by pressing the volume buttons.
Try another song or audio file.
Reset iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down buttons until you see the Apple logo appear.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?For information on servicing your iPod, go to the iPod Service FAQ.

IPad 2 wifi not working. Was working fine, now won't find the network. Any suggestions?

Help! Bought an iPad 2 for my mother, brought it to Scotland (from Chicago); initially worked fine. Wifi suddenly stopped working. Wn't find the network. My iPad 2 has no problems. Reset the network settings, did a hard restart, reset all settings, rebooted the router. Nothing's working. I'm returning to the U.S. In four days. Any help would be most appreciated.

Patrick-
Did your "hard restart" involve holding both buttons until the Apple logo appeared?
Are you sure that Airplane Mode is OFF?
The solution may be to swap iPads and leave the good one with your Mother. If you erase all content and settings on both, you can restore the good one from your Mother's computer.
When you get home you can do the same with the problem iPad and your computer. If you haven't sorted it out by then, take it to the Apple Store Genius.

Hi, I have an apple id for my iphone 5s, and my two daughter's 4s phones. The problem is that for a month or so now I have been unable to download their updates for purchased apps just on their phones. It works fine on my phone. Any Ideas? Thanks

Hi, I have the same apple id for my 5s and my two daughters 4s phones. For some reason lately, their updated for apps on their phones will not download. Mine works fine. When I press "update" on theirs, it just opens whatever particular app I'm trying to update. I've tried restarting their phones and signing out and signing back in to my account, but no luck. Any ideas? Any help would be appriciated.

You got the new iphone????? I have same problem. I transferred audiobooks to device to find no audiobooks on device (despite it being in iTunes as if it was). Have you found a solution????? I even tried to change import settings on format transfer but hasn't worked.

HT1695 New iPhone 5 -only able to get wifi when sitting next to router. My old 3GS with iOS 5.1 works fine all over house. Any ideas on how I can get my new iPhone 5 to work as well as old 3GS?

I just got my new iPhone 5 yesterday. I'm having difficulty maintaining a wifi connection. I can get reception when I'm sitting next to router but I get a short distance away and I get the message 'unable to connect to network'. My old iPhone 3GS works fine at same places where new iPhone 5 won't connect. I still am using ios 5.1 on 3GS. I've turned off my old phone to make sure it isn't causing some type of interference and also switched off the cellular network to try to force it into wifi mode but without any success. I don't think it's my router since my old 3GS is working fine. Anybody have any further thoughts? Thanks

There are some low-profile slots though 1 of them are occupied by the firewire card: 1 low-profile PCI, 2 low-profile PCI Express x16, 1 low-profile PCI Express x1
We actually purchased 13 of these computers for video editing, so I really hope it is possible to fix this without buying 13 low-profile graphics adapters. What gets to me is the fact that it does work when I disable the driver. (!) Shold therefore be doable to make a driver/update that works :-(
Any ideas? Or, in worst case, anyone know about a low-profile graphics card that works?
Thanks,
Steffen
