    Hello,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • HT1711 When I try to play a song on I-Tunes I receive the Message "The Song can not be used because original can not be found" Can anyone out there help me with this?

    When I try to play a song on I-Tunes, I receive the Message "The song can not be used because the original can not be found.  Can anyone out there help me  with this problem?

    The iTunes application saves your iTunes Store purchases--as well as any music, audiobooks, or videos you import--to your computer's hard disk, not the iTunes application itself.
    The error message you note indicates that the purchase in question can’t be located where it is stored in your iTunes Music folder in order to play it, and may have been moved or deleted.
    You will need to help iTunes locate the file. Follow the steps in this article:

    I'd suggest being more specific. What do you mean by "it seems to have thrown windows out of the system?" The Windows virtual machines should still be in the Virtual Machines folder in your documents folder. Are they there? What version of Fusion have you updated from and to?
    You might also consider raising your question in the VMware Fusion forum: http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/desktop/fusion?view=discussions&sta rt=0.

    I am new to apple software having worked with microsoft all these years. The switch was mainly for my photographs.

    Thanks

    Gosh I am already tired of trying to retrieve this photo album and it seems like a waste of time and money spent on an apple IMac.
    No disrespect intended but until you learn how iPhoto and Macs work you will continue to be confused and frustrated. 
    You say you want to create a book in iPhoto and have it printed by Apple, right.  Have you finished creating  the book in iPhoto? If so the Control (right) - click in the View all pages window background and select Save Book as  PDF in the contextual menu?
    Open the the PDF file with Preview and check for any errors or problems.  If there are none you can order the book by clicking oin the Buy Book button at the bottom. Save the pdf file to compare with the printed book when it arrives in you feel there's a problem with it.  That's all you need to do.  There's no use of the Finder required.

  • Fe mode........can anyone out there help me........i am NOT a techie

    i am trying to install a different printer but keep getting a message that windows installer is not correctly installed or is in safe mode...can anyone help me........i am not a techie by any means

    1. It sounds like a windows issue, so I searched online and found this information (not a windows expert), but it sounds like what you are experiencing. 
    Windows Installer error
    The Windows Installer service could not be accessed' on Windows XP?
    When you attempt to install a program that uses Windows Installer, such as Office XP, you receive: "The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running in safe mode or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. "
    This error is probably the result of a damaged registration service. To resolve this issue: 
    1. Open a CMD.EXE prompt. 
    2. Type msiexec /unregister and press Enter. 
    3. Type msiexec /regserver and press Enter.
    2. Then you might want to try the the HP Printer Install Wizard.  (I was not sure which C5100 you have, so be sure to select your model and Windows XP.

  • Running through songs....can anyone out there help?

    So, I have tried to reset, install the latest software, etc...here is the problem, as yet, unresolved...when I choose a song via albums or artists, it just runs through all of the songs and plays none of them. Has anyone heard of this before? THANKS in advance for any help and for taking the time to answer...ds

    THANKS for the reply! It happens when I go to albums or artists, and choose a song to play...it just scrolls through the remaining songs and does not play them, or if I choose the last song on the list, just goes back to the main menu. If I play from the All Songs list or the purchaed music playlist it works fine...very weird...I was thinking of just restoring the whole iPod and reloading it with software, etc, I just do not know how to do that...thanks for your time!

  • Can anyone out there help me figure out why I am having trouble opening a gray scale tiff in ID and

    I have been opening tiffs and coloring them successfully for years, and all of a sudden it is not working. I made a logo in Illustrator, saved it as an ai, opened that in PS, saved as a grayscale tiff, and then opened it in ID. First the white background box was there, so I went back into Illustrator and knocked out group, then in PS preserved transparancy. I succeeded in losing the white box, but then in ID when I tried to color it, nothing happened. I checked all my ID settings, and just cannot figure out why this is happening.

    Colorizing in ID works for NON-transparent grayscales or Bitmap mode raster files only.
    A Bitmap mode image in a frame filled with [None] and colorized will appear transparent in the white areas, but you'll need to ad a clipping path for grayscale, or change the blend mode and live with overprints, which you probbly don't want.

  • HT2731 How do I create an iStore USA account from South Africa. Is it possible using a South African credit card.

    How do I create a USA iStore account from South Africa. Is it possible with a South African credit card.

    Hi ...
    Afraid not ...
    Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • Can I using any SIM card at any where in my IPhone4 when I purchase from South Africa Vodacom ??

    Can I using any SIM card at any where(even oversea's sim card) in my IPhone4 when I purchase from South Africa Vodacom ??

    You are correct, I did a little digging as well.
    Here is an official Apple document that confirms what Lucas found.  That way you can see the information directly from the source itself.

  • Im from South Africa and i can only purchase limited games

    Im from South Africa and i cannot purchase games from the UK or any country.
    The games for South Africa are limited and *****, i like to purches simulation games like air to air combat and games like Grand Torismo
    please assist my  e mail <Edited by Host>.

    "Im from South Africa and i cannot purchase games from the UK or any country."
    That is correct.
    You can ONLY use the itunes store of your country of residence AND ONLY while you are physically located inside the borders of that country.
    There is nothing to be done.
    If the itunes store of your country does not sell them, then you cannot buy them.
    Sorry.

  • Purchasing music from South AFrica

    Hi, Trying to purchase music thru' itunes, but when inputing my credit card details and asked to choose a country, South Africa is not listed. can anyone help?
    thanks,

    Richard, unfortunately there's nothing anyone can do.
    South Africa doesn't have it's own store & the only
    way you can purchase from another country's store is
    to have a credit card with a billing address in that
    country.
    This is kind of stupid. I mean, I don't mind buying from the American or UK stores, but not being able to buy at all is a major bad idea. Apple not only misses out on potential customers, but also makes my and other's like me experience with iPod and iTunes less than it should and could be.
    I mean what? Just because I'm Romanian or that guy is from South Africa, we are not allowed to use the iPod we've purchased and iTunes at their full potential. Just adding other countries as an option to the address information for a Music Store account doesn't seem like such a big deal.
