    Hi 22chill,
    I recommend that we delete and re-download the movie from your purchase history:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • After errors with disk partition, I removed Windows from my iMac. Now when I start my computer it goes into a black screen and not straight into the Mac area like it used to, unless I hold Alt straight away to give me the option.  Any help?

    Hi,
    Sorry, I'm new to the community, so apologies if I'm repeating myself.
    OK, so I tried to install Windows Vista onto my iMac with the disk partition.  Everything was going fine and it wasn't until last minute, when it was installed that an error came up saying that this can only be done with Windows 7.  After this error, I couldn't access any errors of my iMac and when I shut down and restarted my computer, it automatically logged into Windows.
    So after a panic, I rang Apple Care and the lady helped me log into my apple area, delete Windows from my iMac, and all was restored.
    However, now when I shut down my computer and boot it back up, I think my iMac is trying to log into Windows areas that no longer exist.  It loads up a black screen and doesn't move from there.  To log into my Apple area, I have to do the whole process of holding Alt immediately after I switch the power on and access the Mac drive and log in that way.
    It's beginning to become a real pain and I'm paranoid this process is going to damage my computer.  Any advice on how to restore logging-in back to it's former glory when I first purchased it?
    Thanks

    Solved it.  Thank you very much for that!

  • I installed Mountain Lion and now some times when I start my mac it look with a black screen and white text. I'm really worry about it, can somebody help me?

    I installed Mountain Lion in my IMac and now, some times, when I start up my mac it looks with a black screen and white text. I'm really worry about it, can somebody help me?

    Don't worry, this is probably just Verbose Mode. It's perfectly harmless.  If you're not specifically invoking it, than it's probably down to an unwanted setting in NVRAM.  See this article on resetting NVRAM if it continues to bother you.

  • Please help - black screen blinking cursor 24" imac and XP home sp2

    Brand new 24" imac purchased yesterday from the apple store with a 4 gig ram upgrade (i.e. all the newest stuff/versions). All updates installed & current.
    Brand new (clean & scratchless) copy of Windows XP Home with SP2.
    I ran the bootcamp assistant and made a 20 gig windows parition (so its under the 32 gig limit of fat32).
    Following the installation procedure the windows disk is inserted, the machine reboots and then it just sits there with a black screen and a blinking cursor. The CD drive stops spinning and no progress from that point forward.
    I then read on here some had better lucky with a "copy" of the original windows disk so I duplicated it in this Mac (i.e. burned with its own drive) but exactly the same problem with the burned copy (which also opens fine from within OSX).
    I'm at a loss... where to go from here? We decided to try apple because they assured us we could run our "windows only aps" on the bootcamp side of the hardware but bootcamp isn't working!
    Please advise...
    If any of this helps:
    OS X Version 10.5.2
    2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM
    Model name: iMac
    Model id: iMac8,1
    Boot Rom Version: IM81.00C1.B00
    SMC Version: 1.30f1

    Welcome to the Apple forums:
    Be sure your XP disk had SP2 embedded into XP, and not a separate file or patch.
    Also be sure your disk is not an ISO image but a real disk, with files on it. You can look at them using your Mac. Insert the CD or DVD and doubleclick the disk icon.
    You should see most or all of the following files and folders:
    (HOMEWITHSP2)
    AUTORUN.INF
    DOCS
    DOTNETFX
    I386
    README.HTM
    SETUP.EXE
    SETUPXP.HTM
    SUPPORT
    VALUEADD
    WIN51
    WIN51IC
    WIN51IC.SP2
    When you copied the disk, did you make sure your copy was Windows readable? Mac has several formats, one of which is Mac-only for data CDs. You need to select the universal mode, Mac and Windows for the data image and when burning the image.
    Also be sure you selected to close or finalize the CD after burning or it cannot be read by Windows.

  • My Time Capsule backups disappeared (blank black screens) and in trying to set it up again I now find that when TC is plugged in and on (green light) it cancels out wifi reception from my router. I am only using TC as a backup not for wifi. Help!

    My Time Capsule backups disappeared (blank black screens) and in trying to set it up again I now find that when TC is plugged in and on (green light) it cancels out wifi reception from my router. I am only using TC as a backup not for wifi. Can anybody help?

    Sorry, you have lost me since it appears that you have two completely separate issues here.
    All that I can suggest is you start over and try to set up the Time Capsule again first...and then, once that is done and the Time Capsule is working correctly on the network....then, try to troubleshoot the separate Time Machine issue.
    If you decide that you want to do this, we'll need some basic information:
    Make and model number of your modem?
    You are using OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), correct?

  • HELP!!! iPod is stuck on black screen and wont work!!!

    I've had my nano for 2 years and it's gotten locked up and I pressed buttons until it worked, but never like this! For the past 3 days my ipod has been stuck on a black screen, and I made sure it wasn't on hold. I've been plugging it into EVERYTHING!! My iHome, my wall plug-in, and my computer but it never works! When I plugged it into my computer, it didn't even detect an ipod plugged in! After that I hit random buttons for half and hour. So, before I throw it out the window in a fit of rage, any advice?!

    Have you tried pressing the menu button and the center button at the same time?
    If you hold them down for about ten or so seconds the gray apple will appear and things will start working again..
    The same thing happened to me today Lucky me I work with an I pod Crew and they helped get it running
