Have a nx9600 and when it tries to reboot, the hard drive light comes on, the 2 lock lights flash

At boot, the hard drive light comes on, the 2 lock lights flash simultanously (A and 1 ) , 2 of the 3 fans come on, then it appears to turn off. It will sit in a loop through the reboot process until the power and the battery have been removed.
Have replaced the drive and the center fan. The replaced fan is new and an HP fan. When I have been able to get it to boot , loaded windows and linux on the new drive.
If it sits long enough and you pray it may reboot. Once I turned it upside down and it rebooted.
Have had the system up and running for hours with no problem, then have to reboot or a shutdown and won't reboot.
Suggestions ?

Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless.

I have 8 apps that, when I tried to update, are now stuck on "installing" in the box that says update. every time I try to update another app, it gets frozen like this as well. I was able to quit all apps, but these, as they do not respond. Any ideas?

Reset your iPad by holding the home and on/off buttons together for 6 or 7 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then update your apps one at a time. Do not start the next app until the current one downloads and finishes installing.

My iPad4 switched off on it's own, and when I tried to reboot it, it gets stuck on the apple logo.(or sometimes a small loading whirlwind thingy) What should I do? Thanks

Sorry, I'm here, but I am at work.
If you do not have a backup and iTunes will not let you backup now, unfortunately you will lose everything.
I'm not sure that I understand what you saying about iTunes not nothing the device being plugged in, but I iTunes does not see the device that is one of the reasons that you need to use recovery mode.
If you are running iTunes 11 and you cannot see the iPad under the devices heading because you can't see the sidebar - go to View>Show Sidebar at the top of the screen in iTunes.

I have a macbook pro with only 128gb of hard drive. I have lightroom installed and all my photos on an external hard drive. Can I store my lightroom library on the external hard drive too?

Yes. Find the LR catalog file by looking in Edit/Catalog Settings/General. Close LR and navigate to that spot. The catalog file is the one that ends in .lrcat - move it to wherever you want. Next to the .lrcat file is a subfolder called Previews.lrdata. You can move that over as well, but if you don't LR will generate new previews. Double-click on the .lrcat file in its new home and LR will open with that catalog. Set Preferences to When Starting Up Use Most Recent Catalog.

I have a MacPro with two 1T hard drives. How do I access the hard drive that is not the start-up drive?

I purchased a MacPro and upgraded to 2 1T hard drives. How do I access the hard drive that is not the start-up drive?

Have you formatted these new drives yet with Disk Utility? That is the first step.
Once they are formatted, if you want to see them on your desktop open the Finder preferences, General, and clock the checkbox that says "Show these items on the desktop" for the hard disks. If that preference was already set you should see the drives appear after they are formatted. Then they are there for you to use as you wish.

I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
If it does contain data...

I get error 8062 when trying to copy files from one external hard drive to another. It starts out copying files, but after 10 minutes or so it stops and I get the error 8062. The hard drive tech support says the problem is in my Macbook Air.

I cannot copy my doc and photos and videos from one external hard drive to a second external hard drive -- both plugged in to my MacBook Air -- I get Error 8062 and the copying (which seemed to be going on for 10 minutes) stops and nothing gets copied.
As any Macbook Air owner knows, there is SO LITTLE storage capacity on the computer that you have to back up big files onto an external hard drive to avoid getting the other annoying error that says you have no more memory/storage capacity/whatever the proper term is, and you cannot use the computer.
Backstory: Before this error cropped up, I had backed up lots of files to an external drive and then removed them from my computer. But then the external hard drive got corrupted and I could not access my entire photo library. Had to pay $850 to Kroll Ontrack to recover those files. I have now bought 2 new external 1 Terrabyte hard drives as protection against another such disaster. BUT I cannot copy the files from the first hard drive where all my reovered files now sit, to another backup hard drive.
Feeling vulnerable. Please help.

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Energy Saver ▹ Power Adapter
and uncheck the box labeled Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible, if it's checked.
If the drive has more than one interface (USB, FireWire, Thunderbolt, eSATA), try one of the other interfaces.
Check that the data cable is securely inserted at both ends.
Try a different cable.
If you're connecting the drive through a hub, connect it directly to a built-in port on the Mac.
If you're connecting it directly, try a different port.
Disconnect all other devices on the bus, or as many as possible.
Test the drive with another Mac. Test another drive with this Mac.
If the drive is bus-powered, but has an AC adapter, connect the adapter.
Start up in Safe Mode and test.
If the drive doesn't work under any of the above conditions, and if another drive does work with the same Mac, then the drive has failed. You may be able to salvage the mechanism by removing it from the enclosure and installing it in another one, or in a drive dock.

I have Linux Ubuntu and when I tried to upgrade my firefox, my firefox icon disappeared!

I have firefox 3.26 or something like that on my ubuntu linux 10.04 machine. I only tried to install/update firefox 7.0 and it would not let me do this. I got a tar.biz2 file and when I opened it with archive manager, the compression software, it just had a bunch of binary files and wouldn't do anything at all so I extracted them, but that did not help. It still would not do anything. How do I upgrade my firefox browser and how do I get my firefox icon back on my desktop? Or shall I uninstall firefox and install another version or what? Is 7.0 not compatible with Ubuntu Linux? And if I am running the correct firefox browser for Linux, how do I update firefox in the ubuntu software update? I have tried this.

My MacBook Pro 13 inch makes a clicking noise from the hard drive and can not start up in safe mode and normal. I then ran disk utility in recovery mode and disk utility shows no problems with the hard drive. What is the problem?

Please help me, I have a mid 2010 Mac book pro with a toshiba mk3266gsxf harddrive. It started making a clicking noise and then my computer crashed. I proceeded to boot in safe mode, but it doesn't work. When I ran disk utility in recovery mode, it showed no problem with my disk. Does any one know what the problem is?

Sounds like a mechanical problem with the drive and it ruined the sectors where the Macintosh HD partition (and OS X, and files and programs) reside, but not your Recovery HD partition.
If you held command option r while booting, that's Internet Recovery and it's loaded via the Internet, not via the Recovery HD partition on the boot drive, so that could mean the drive is dead mechanically or there is another issue.
In either case the drive will likely have to be replaced, it's a matter of what occured to where and the drive state if you can recover data or not. If you made recent backups then your fine.
My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?

My computer crashed and it destroyed the hard drive. I use the adobe suite not creative cloud. Is there anyway I can recover the licenses?

Basically explains it in the title. I had a computer that was plugged into an outlet that lost voltage, killing my computers hard drive. I recently replaced it and want to install it again. Can I recover the licenses from my destroyed hard drive.
