Firewire suddenly not working

Hi,
running 10.4.9, not sure when I updated from 10.4.8.
In the past, Have successfully used both Lacie Mini Hard Drive (firewire connection) & Panasonic AGDV2500 with this Powerbook.
Now suddenly, Final Cut Pro will not see Deck. And Powerbook does not see Lacie drive when I connect it.
Have tried both Shift-CTRL-Option & power button to reset, as well as power down, hold power for 30 seconds then power back up...in an attempt to reset the Power Management.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Gary,
Try doing a SMC and PRAM reset:
1. Turn off your iMac and unplug everything from it for 30 seconds.
2. Plug in the power cord, keyboard and mouse only.
3. Press the power button and immediately hold down the Option, Command, P & R keys until you hear the second gong then release the keys. Your machine will start up normally, then check for the issues you are having.

Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working. I can login to my account but as soon as I do that the screen goes completely white. I can change the volume and I have a mouse but that is it. I've tried safe starting my computer and that doesn't work.

Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working past the login page. A white screen comes up that I cannot get rid of. I attempted a safe start up and that failed as well. It's a white screen where I have a mouse and when I click the volume buttons I can hear it working but nothing else just white. Please help.

Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store & sign out & log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

Hello:
I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
Many thanks.

ITunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working.

iTunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working. Updated to IOS8.0 (not running 8.0.1) a few days go but was fine up until today. Now, when attempting to play a list of songs (artist, playlist or album) it rapidly shuffles through all of them without playing and then it displays a red square next to songs and won't play them at all. It seems to sync with my MBP but then new playlists I've created don't appear on the iPhone even though iTunes on the MBP has them appearing when I click the "on my iPhone tab. Tried the obvious quit and restart approach. No effect. Does anyone have any ideas?

It's not a hardware problem. The same exact thing just happened to me. My husband reset all settings, not erase all content and settings, after the phone started back up, everything worked like normal again. You just have to redo your settings.

Hope this helps you!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

IChat video suddenly not working

Can anyone help? I'm using iChat 4.0.8 on an almost brand new MacBook Pro. The video worked perfectly fine with my parents, and then suddenly stopped working when we moved. We're still using a wireless connection with an airport extreme. Funny thing is, the video works fine with my husband's MacBook Pro, and my brother who is in California. Why would it suddenly not work with my parents when computers haven't changed?
please help!

Did the Modem change ?

Apple TV suddenly not working

My Apple TV is suddenly not working. I have tried the trouble shooting suggestions of restarting, upgrading the system, checking everything etc, but to no avail. When I do a system test, all is ok, but I just cannot download /view my purchase - I get a constant 'ready in one minute' message with a wait symbol. There doesn't seem to be an issue with movies I have already purchased. I tried apple online support and a 'helpful support' person didn't respond to my query in 'under 2minutes' - or at all for that matter. Of course no problem with the billing - my account hash been charged for a movie I can't watch. All very frustrating! We have had Apple TV for over 18 months with no problems.

Welcome to the Apple community.
So is it just one movie.

AppleTv2: HDCP suddenly not working on netflix after update

I have had a working AppleTV2 for about a year and have been using netflix to stream movies. After most recent update I can no longer stream due to HDCP error. There are been no changes to the hardware (cables, TV, power, etc.) This can only point to the update. I tried to do a restore from Mac to the most recent update. I took it into the genius bar and they tried to do the same thing. No change, they only offer the $69 Service replacement. I have tried changing the outputs, the hdmi cable and powering up in a certain manner. None of these work? Why is this suddenly not working?
Thanks for any help.

Interesting (albeit, odd) addition to this issue --
on my work system (dual G5, decked out, 23" Cinema), the same issue started to happen after the QT upgrade... however in my situation, the movie would load, but then just sit there, frozen.
The first time I saw this, I started to move my mouse across the web page, and noticed that every time the pointer would roll over a URL link or any other rollover type of object within the browser window (e.g., a link or even a tab or bookmark shortcut in the Safari toolbar) the movie would suddenly start and stop, but just for a fraction of a second. But yet, if I just leave my mouse sitting on top of the URL or rollover object, it does nothing. It appears to be directly related to the action of roll-on or roll-out from other objects on the page, or within the overall window.
So basically, if I take my mouse and move it ridiculously fast back and forth over any one of these rollover items, the movie will play for a fraction of a second each time the pointer passes over the object and makes it highlight... something to the effect of watching a flip-book animation that stutters along.
Very bizarre -- not sure what happened with the update, but hoping that there is a patch released soon. It would appear that it's conflicting with other objects within the window, or it's waiting for some action on another rollover-type of item that is loaded within the overall window.

Skype number is suddenly not working for me and my...

Skype number is suddenly not working for me and my colleagues to RECEIVE outside calls. Any ideas?
When I try to call my skype from my cell, it doesnt ring on either end. It appears connected on the cell phone since the counter clock for the call is increasing, but it doesnt ring or connect.
This is the same for me and at least 2 of my colleagues. It was working all day, till suddenly it did not.
When outside people call, it just gives us a missed call or voicemail email, but does not show a missed call on our skype.
When I call an outside number from skype, it connects.
Thanks for any help ASAP!

I think this might have been happening to me earlier. If you wait like 30 seconds when you called a machine said "All circuits are busy. da da da". I was looking for an answer and google only brought stuff from like 2010. It's working now after an hour or so.
Sucks cause I use skype for work and was desperate to find a quick reponse but couldn't.

Rules set in mail are suddenly not working?

I had my rules set in mail and now they are suddenly not working, what to do to fix?

I'm having the same problem, but not with all messages. Only a few slip through. However, when I right-click and Apply Rules to individual emails, the rule suddenly works.
What I'd like to work (and it doesn't), is to be able to select-all emails in inbox and then right-click, Apply Rules. But this never works. AND it'd be must faster than doing it individually. Thx!

Flash Slideshows Suddenly not working

Hi All,
My site is "www.neilmarksphotography.com"
I have 5 pages leading off "GALLERY" menu option, which all contain flash slideshows created in Lightroom. They have all been working fine, but today I slightly changed the content of the slideshows, and now they are not working - they just show the "GET ADOBE FLASH PLAYER" icon. The home page (index.html) is working fine - I have not changed the code there at all.
I have tried to compare the code in the changed gallery pages with the home page, but cannot see what I have done to stop all the galleries from working properly. GALLERY pages are previewing fine locally off the hard drive. It's only on the live page that I am getting the problem
Any suggestions?
thanks
Neil

Hi

Subject: Flash Slideshows Suddenly not working
Hi
Try removing the following line of code (marked in red), from the problem pages -
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = gat.getTracker("UA-3534258-1");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
</script>
It may be that your pages are cached in your browser, (viewing locally, in browser), or that the Google analytics code is being ignored by dreamweaver, (if working in dreamweaver), as this requires a live page /server.

AOL Radio suddenly not working

Hi,
The AOL Radio widget is suddenly not working - anyone else have this problem?

I'm sorry to confirm they are filtering IP addresses..
If you open an AOL station in iTunes you'll hear that "soon" AOL radio stations won't be broadcast outside the bounds of the US, then it goes on to say "Who's to blame?" and something about lawyers.
There goes my favorite music app...
AOL is recommending we switch to Last.fm, I've tried and hate Last.fm... I guess I'm screwed...
