G5 Panther re install, now stuck with instal disc inside
I have a G5 running 10.3 Panther. I am having problems with some apps so thought I'd reinstall. I put install disc 1 of the 3 in and clicked on install icon. It turned itself off then came on again and now all it does is show the Apple logo and the fan comes on after a few minutes. It's been stuck like that for a couple of hours now. I've tried unplugging and restarting but it always goes to this Apple logo?. All I want to do know is start it up and get the disc out. Help!
Hold down the mouse button while starting computer to eject disc.
Hold down C key while starting computer with disc in to boot from CD which is what you actually have to do to run the installer.
Not all third party mice or keyboards will work at early boot stage.

Reset iPad and start again.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

Yosemite will not upload on my MacPro, says I have to verify or repair, but when I do - it fails on that too. Am now stuck with a computer that doesn't work ! Have I lost everything ?
Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

I just updated my phone and it is now stuck with usb cable and itunes logo and itunes on my computer says I have to restore. Can I get my phone working again without loosing my photos?
There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

while updating ipod touch 4 i got an error message now stuck with apple symbol and empty bar. can i restart ipod?
- What was the error message?
- Try closing iTunes and then disconnect the iPod from the computer. Then reconnect the iPod. If the iPod shows in iTunes then you can try again. However, You should try to resolve the error message first.
- If iTunes does not see the iPod try reetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- I recommend that you come back with the what the error message said and the condition of the iPod and if it is visible in iTunes. -
Up now stuck with reading list as unticking in safari preferences gas not worked
Trying to use facetime on mac air to ipad cannot get contacts up; now stuck with reading list as unticking in safari preferences has not worked how do i get rid of reading list and add contacts to macair please?
This seems to have been fixed by going to settings>iCloud, deleting Safari, and then adding it back again, effectively resetting iCloud for Safari on the iOS device.

Help please. Please... Please...............Force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -
I tried installing os 4.3.3 but ITunes advised of error before completing. I am now left with image on screen of 'usb to be linked with ITunes'. I cannot reboot my IPad or connect with ITunes to re-sync. Can anyone help? Thank you
I have encountered this problem with my first IPAD2 and brought it back to the Apple Store. They gave me a new one and I used it for a few weeks and my MIC was not working so I decided to try and install the update. I hard wired my laptop this time and again I had the same error. The IPAD2 froze so I went back to the Apple Store and they tried to fix the problem. They could not. So they are going to give me another new one. I asked them what the problem could be and they said it was my computer and I should select the download and not the download and install. But to be honest I do not remember I had that option. When I get my new one, I will see if I get the option to select how I update my IPAD. I also saw a message on this site that suggested closing all security programs before attempting to updat the software. I did ask the apple rep when I returned my IPAD today if the security programs would interfer with the update. They said no, but I will try anything to get the update to work. If you find an answer let me know

Now it's stuck with the progress bar less than a quarter full. I have also tried resetting through itunes which works right up to the point where itunes states that it needs the passcode to be inputted into the ipad to connect to it. At which point it then sticks at the same progress bar point. HELP!! please, this ipad is really important to my work.
Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
Good Luck -
Did a factory reset on my phone and the screen is now stuck with apple symbol
I have done a master reset/restore facoty settings on my iphone and am now stuck on a screen with the apple icon
I had that same thing happen to me when I was updating my iPhone to iOS 5! What I did was I just kept resetting and resetting and holding down the home and power buttons until 3 in the morning. (ok, maybe it was only midnight but it sure FELT like 3 AM!) Anyway, I would just keep at it until it decides it wants to cooperate. Mine eventually did.

Mis-sold broadband package? Now stuck with it?
I feel slightly agrieved at being talked into buying a broadband package with BT on the premise that I could watch European rugby on BT sport for free. I eventually signed up for unlimited infinity 2 and started to enjoy the aforementioned rugby. All was right with the world.
Then I awoke one day to find that alas BT have paid silly money for the football equivelant and as a result I know have to pay to watch my beloved Rugby. Not only that but I am stuck with 10 months of my 18 months of my contract.
Why is it that the lure used to buy, what is a slightly more expensive product, Broadband with BT can suddenly be changed mid contract yet I still have to carry on taking the broadband and phone?
Apologies if the tone of my post is slightly off but I am slightly miffed. Not only have I been told that I have to pay for something I was told would be free but then I am stuck with BT Infinity now. Any thoughts on what to do?hannahe wrote:
As well as this obvious issue, we have found the whole TV package pretty poor. The picture quality is worse than normal freeview! Can't get the standard HD channels. Very difficult to navigate the screens, plus slow response to pressing buttons on remote.
It sounds like they sent you the BT Vision+ box rather than the BT Youview box. If this is the case was that for a good reason? The newer BT Youview box has a much better interface and will pick up the Freeview HD channels over the TV aerial.
There are two reasons for still sending out a BT Vision+ box to a new customer.
(1) The customer wants to view BT Sport 1 & 2 over the TV aerial as they are not on Infinity broadband. This requires a viewing card slot which the BT Youview box doesn't have.
(2) The customer has subscribed to Sky Sports. BT currently can't offer them on the BT Youview box. -
