HELP BEFORE I THROW MY MAC BOOK OUT THE WINDOW!!!!!

HELP!!!!! ok i have a mac book and recently purchased an iphone the software update for the iphone crashed my macbook and my iphone and the macbook had to be wiped and my HD had to be wiped, now all this was ok cause i had my music and my photos on my iphone BUT the iphone when it eventually turned on is now saying it had to be restored to factory setting which means i loose everything!!!!! how do i save my iphone from being wiped???? if i loose everything im going to throw it away i cant understand why the stupid phone needs to be restored and the iphone screen is just showing a pic of plugging the phone into itunes!!!

which instructions are those? do you mean this [link|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1545?viewlocale=en_US]? if that didn't do it I think you are in for an [archive and install|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710?viewlocale=en_US].
and of course you can always go with the option of throwing the computer out of the window...

    I'm getting the same problem. Probably since 10.4.10 but I can't be sure. I am have just been perplexed at why my other machines are working OK and my iMac G4 17" 1Ghz is having network problems. It has the original Aiport Extreme Card inside. I was Googling and saw a suggestion to delete all your "Network Locations" then start fresh. I've just tried that and I'm running a ping for a while to see how its performing. I think its improved but the signal read only 2 bars still when my MacBook Pro right next to it read 100%.
    Somebody must know something?

  • HELP....Almost threw imac out the window....Htlm files...iweb gone.

    OK, here is the scoop. This awesome imac took a nose dive and crashed. And I lost my iweb project that I worked soooooo hard on. I opened up iweb and nothing, it was gone. Two weeks 9 hours a day out the window. I came close to throwing this awesome imac out the window. So, I went into idisk and
    found the file or files. It seems there are 12 little file with the page name and letters (Html.) I found out all these files made up the one project I was working on in iweb. How in the world do I get these (Html) files back into iweb so I can continue to work on it? Please help ASAP.....Thanks ...Rich

    How in the world do I get these (Html) files back into iweb so I can continue to work on it?
    You can't. Unless you have a backup copy of the Domain file which created the site, you will need to recreate it.

  • PLEASE help before I throw my iMac G4 out of the apartment window

    Hello Apple Experts.
    I hope that you can help me out here before I throw my iMac G4 out of the apartment window!!!!
    I am having major problems with my wireless connection on my iMac G4(Uses original Airport Card).
    When I installed 10.4 the connection was just very weak and not all the bars on the Airport icon were highlighted.
    Also, on occasions the connection was totally lost and the iMac didn't even see the base unit (non apple) whilst it was switched on.
    Now that I upgraded to 10.4.10 (using the PPC combi update), the Imac does not see or connect to the base unit at all.
    As far as I know the card and antenna is conneted properly as I followed the Apple set up guide.
    I know that the base station is fine as I have another mac in the house that connects with no issues....
    I am wondering if there is a general issues with the iMac G4's connecting wirelessly with the Airport Card.
    It seems there maybe three problems here.
    1) There is an issues with the software update
    2) There is a problem with the Airport Card (although it is brand new)
    3) I need to configure someting to make it work!
    Hope someone can help me here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • I'm ready to throw my macbook pro out the window

    Hey everyone, i'm a sorta-newbie i've owned apple products (ipods and iphones for years, but this is my first computer from mac, and my first personal computer other than my parents')
    So i recently bought my very first mac...the mbp 5.3 all nice and pretty with ilife 09 and what not. So since i've deployed, i figured i'd start to actually use some of these programs...namely, iweb...with the intentions of learning more and more about it and pulling in other apps. Well i actually have several questions, but i'll ask them in the order in which i usually encounter them. The first being, that whenever i close and then reopen (or "publish", i'll talk about that one a little more, later)...the pictures i was so clearly told i could simply drag into place from the media bar always move and cover chunks of texts...it gets extremely annoying to have to readjust the photos every time i open iweb. Is there any way to keep one's photos from moving.
    Secondly, after manually readjusting the pics, i then try to publish the site...the first time i did it, i was told there was an error publishing the site, but i was able to visit my page. Although i wish i didn't because, just as when i open iweb, there the pictures were covering large amounts of texts. So i go back to iweb and look at the site, everything is in place. I click save and try uploading it again and for some reason the text all disappears from only the actual blog (welcome page and all is ok)...then try uploading again, but the option is greyed out along with visit site.
    I'd greatly appreciate any help you all have, i'm new to macs and not extremely computer literate so if you could break things down for me, i'd appreciate it...
    oh, a few things that may help...i upgraded my me account so space shouldn't be an issue...and i'm not sure if anyone can visit the page but my site's name is rcbray...and its uploaded through iweb (no outside sources)...
    thank you all for your help...i just wish i had run a test on this earlier, my plans were to have the site up an hour ago...

    ugh...i'll be sure to let you know...i'm beginning to regret buyin a mac now...one usually spends the bucks most of have dropped for a premium machine, to actually work. I don't expect every aspect to be perfect, but simple things such as functionality of applications developed for and by the same company making the machines should work...maybe its just because i'm more than a little peeved that i'm going through such trouble to do something as simple as put two pictures next to each other and upload the site (as it appears in iweb) on to the mobileme...
    I finally got it to upload, thanks Old Toad, and i got the pictures to upload...now they just don't appear next to each other as they do in iweb...i guess the good thing is that they are no longer covering text...
    now i'm presented with a second problem...i add a second entry to my blog and when i click on that directly i'm taken to a page saying it is not found...but when i go to the first entry and click next it takes me to the second entry page...although that page is ALMOST correct (the links do not have the same styling i applied to them in iweb)...
    and now i'm presented with a third problem...after adding the second entry i noticed on the blog listing page that my photo from the first entry did not move with it (another photo covering text problem)...so i tried using the graphic placeholder, but the image still does not show up on the main page...

  • SOMEONE PLEASE HELP BEFORE I THROW MY MAC OUT OF THE WINDOW!

    Is my setup useless?
    Logic crashes every time I open more than 1 external synth (e.g. predator, massive, ABL2). This occurs with no other instruments in the project.
    It cant seem to take the CPU.
    Here is what I have….
    Apple iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83GHz 512MB (2x256MB) 160GB (upgraded with 2gig of ram – as much as it can take!)
    Logic 7
    OSX 10.4.11
    M Audio Oxygen V8 midi keyboard
    Memory 2GB667 MHz DDR SD RAM
    1.47gb memory free
    92.82gb space free on hard drive
    Can anyone offer some advice? Surely for what I have paid for the system, I should be able to get more out of it than this?…. is there anything else I can do to boost processing power?
    Any help is massively appreciated!

    Hi David,
    Before sleeping out of your window waiting your Imac, maybe I would suggest couple things:
    - Getting LOGIC 7.2.3
    - Getting last M-AUDIO drivers (if lot compliant one)
    - Repair permissions with let's say ONYX software.
    - Are you using external firewire hardrive? (issue for some of Imac sometimes)
    if this still causes you troubles, then you 'll see my face outside your house with my arms ready.
    Cheers.

  • I'm really so frustrated with videos lagging, I'm about to throw my Macbook Pro out the window. It's really becoming that bad. I've reinstalled Flash, I've tried emptying the trash in safe mode, everything. And my connection on the internet video blows.

    It's worse than dialup, videos constantly freeze up and lagg for minutes. It takes me nearly a half hour to see a 4-minute video. I've heard that it can also be a quicktime addon that I can see, but cannot delete. Sorry, but I'm so ******* frustrated. I don't have a lot of money and when I bought this, I just wanted it to run right. It's been a tough year on me and this hasn't helped.
    I have a
    macbook pro 15", Mid 2012
    8 GB
    Software is mac osx lion 10.7.5
    If anyone can help me fix this problem, you'd be my ******* hero. I'm not very tech savy... but I'd appreciate any help on this.

  • I had windows 7 (32bit) and decided to use boot camp but i forgot to download the latest support software from apple and now i cant find any support softwares please help..i am using mac book pro

    I had windows 7 (32bit) and decided to use boot camp but i forgot to download the latest support software from apple and now i cant find any support softwares please help..i am using mac book pro

    Try the Boot Camp Assistant when you are in OS X and download those and follow the directions in BCA utility.
    Then look up the Boot Camp forum. I suspect you thought this was MBP related forum, it is for 65 lb tower model (and well the new "nMP Late 2013 Mac Pro" http://www.apple.com/support/macpro/
    Boot Camp
    There is a support page too

  • HT4623 how do i update my mac book with the latest version of itunes?

    Hi all, can anyone help me with updating my Mac Book with the latest itunes. I'm a bit old school and usually stick to same programs but now need to update?? Cheers!!

    Make a backup of your computer first before doing any updates.  In rare but unfortunate cases an update seems to result (from what the people posting here say) in libraries being deleted.  Then too, sometimes people update and discover they really don't like the new version.  Downgrading without a backup is difficult. In the long run you can't avoid going to a newer version but I, for example, have been running the same iTunes version for 7 years now so it is possible to hang on.
    You also don't provide details about your MacBook which includes many models.  If you are truly old school you could even be running a MacBook that can't  update to the newest, or at least may require other software or hardware upgrades.  Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac".  Write down what it says about "version"and report that here.  Now continue to "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

    If you keep getting a 'red' message it means that the HDD is faulty and will have to be replaced.  You will have to format the new HDD in Disk Utility>Erase and then install the OSX and your data from Time Machine.

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

    My ipad says your Apple ID has been disabled. Ready to throw this out the window. Apple store could not help. The instructions on the web are useless. Anyone found the solution?

    Sorry, does this link work
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    I ended up having them call me then was able to give them 1 of my secret questions right and they reset things so I could reset all my secret questions.
    Try going into contact support and see if you can schedule a call. There seems to be some issues with peoples' id's and this update. iTunes thought that I'd never bought anything from my computer or device before, and I clearly had, so it's like it got confused. THen I tried to get my questions reset, but the mail never came, which is why I just got a phone call because I felt it was 'real person' time.

  • Please help - about to throw heavy 8 core out window

    I had been using FCP 5 on my iMac for nearly 2 years. I have exported via Quicktime conversion, and straight to Compressor with no real problems with speed.
    I have a large encoding job to get done, so i upgraded and got Dual Quad 2.8 with 4 gb of RAM. I also upgraded to FCP Studio 6.
    Encoding times for H.264 are taking longer than on my iMac by a long time. A 15 second test file running through single pass H.264 encode is taking 4 minutes. It took 45 seconds on my iMac!
    I've tried setting up the cluster using 4 instances, I've tried using "this computer only". I've tried with and without frame controls for interlacing. I've tried creating reference movies and importing into compressor. I've tried exporting straight from FCP. I've tried un and re-installing the software.
    I'm dying here. Have spent a ton of cake and feel like throwing this thing out the window. I've googled until my fingers turned blue looking for suggestions. I'm in serious need of help.
    Please, oh Mac FCP gurus, lay your knowledge down on me! I can provide specific settings and specs as needed!
    Please!
    Mike

    Did you try the exact same media file when comparing your iMac against your Mac Pro? Keep in mind that different media is handled differently.
    If you are using any frame controls for your H.264 multi-pass transcodings in Compressor, have a look at this post: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7309534#7309534
    As Brian Gary mentiones in that MacBreak video, maxing out your instances in Qmaster is not necessarily the best thing to do when trying to make use of a virtual cluster.

  • Do I have to uninstall itunes on my old PC before importing/populating my Mac Book Pro with My iPad stuff?

    Good Day,
    My apologies for the cumbersome subject line/question. In a nut shell, I currently, have my itunes account on my spouses PC and on my iPad(3). I love the Mac stuff so much that recently, I purchased a Mac Book Pro so I could work from two Mac products. I want to take all the apps that I purchased, music, photos etcetera that is on my ipad and put it on to my Mac Book, but it is my understanding that I can only have my music and purchased apps or itunes account on two procducts that includes a PC. So my first question is do I have to, uninstall the itunes on my spouses PC before I can synch my iPad to the Mac, keeping in mind that the itunes account is in my name.
    Second, do you have any tips (best practices, pitfalls to look out for) for the best way to populate my Mac Book Pro with my iPad Apps and Music, I would like the apps and music to be on both the mac book and the iPad. I realize the most obvious answer to my second question is synching the iPad with my Mac but before I do that I would be greatful for any insight and expertise in this area.
    Thanks so much for you time.
    L.

    No you do not have to uninstall iTunes on the PC in order to unsync with the Mac. And where you got that information about having iTunes content on two products only is beyond me. You can associate your Apple ID and iTunes content with up to 10 devices but no more than 5 devices can be computers.
    If you could copy the iTunes library to your new Mac, that would be the ideal thing to do in order to transfer the iTunes library over. That would make the process pretty easy. You can also download most purchased content again as long as you use the same Apple ID and you could move content into your iTunes library that way.
    You will need to authorize the new Mac for your iTunes content. Launch iTunes on the Mac and got to Store>authorize this computer.
    There are many articles that will guide you through copying the iTunes library to the Mac and you can look through a bunch of them here.
