*HELP* laptop displaying "Preparing Automatic Repair"?? Don't know how to fix it??
Hii!
I've had my laptop for less than 12 months. It was being slow so I decided to turn it off and back on again. When I did this, the laptop displayed 'Preparing automatic Repair' then the screen goes black.
I don't know how to go about resolving this issue.
If anyone can help me in any way, I would be more than grateful.
Thanks!!

I've can't open any applications on my Mac ! I tried to delete some files from safari (history) and then none of the apps including iphoto, safari, mail, facetime. I don't know how to fix it, help ? any idea ?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Hi every body. I have some problem with my i pad mini's keyboard . After i opened the message icon , suddenly the shape of my keybord has been chenged . I don't know how to fix it? I was wondering if you'd mind helping me.thanks
That's so you can text with your thumbs. If it does' tog back together automatically put your finger on the tiny typewriter and you should get a pop up to reconnect keyboard. Or more easily put a finger on each one and pop them together.

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

My macbook will not download any apps from the app store. I don't know how to fix it, help?
My macbook will not download any apps from the app store. im running on mac os x 10.6.8. I don't know how to fix it, help?
Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
That will re download and install the App Store for you which may help.
It's ok to install the combo even though you are already running v10.6.8
Restart your Mac after combo is installed, try downloading apps.
Note... if you have Little Snitch installed that will prevent downloads. If you have anti virus software installed, disable that and turn off the Firewall in System Prefereces > Security. -

Unknown Error containing "0xE" when restoring
To resolve this issue, follow the steps in iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting. If you have a Windows computer with an Intel® 5 series/3400 series chipset, you may need updates for your chipset drivers. See iTunes for Windows: Issues syncing iOS devices with P55 and related Intel Chipsets for more information.

So i restarted my iPod and it is telling me that the activation server could not be reached. And I don't know how to fix it. Please help!!
Maybe this is applicable
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
This says the Activation Servers are on-line

I am trying to update my iPhone 4s to IOS 1.6.3 but everyone I update it it says error but I don't know how to fix this error!! HELP!!!
That sounds like a possible security software issue on the computer you are using, or are you trying to do the update via the phone OTA?
If you are trying to do it OTA, you might want to connect the phone to the computer and iTunes and attempt the update from there.
BTW, the update is iOS 6.1.3. -
My Iris Preset stopped working and I don't know how to fix it. Help?
My Iris Preset stopped working and I don't know how to fix it.It worked on one picture and now it isn't working anymore. I cannot figure out why. Google failed me.
This may occur if you are connected to the Internet and iTunes is trying to connect to the iTunes Store and fails for some unknown reason.
Try this:
Quit iTunes and disconnect completely from the Internet.
IF you have an iPhone (iPod etc), open iTunes. Sync the device.
Re-enable your Internet connection.
Quit iTunes.
Open iTunes again.
If this does not work, try completely uninstalling iTunes, then reinstall it according to these instructions:

I keep getting the message an unknown error has occured 0x80090318. I don't know how to fix it. I even deleted itunes off my computer and reinstalled and still get the error message
This helped me.
Go to Start -- Accessories -- Command Prompt, make right click and choose run as administrator
Type this command : netsh winsock reset
then restart your computer, everything should be ok after this. Good Luck. -
I was adding music to my Ipod the other day, from some cds I bought. My ipod randomly crashed, and said it was corrupt, and needed to be restored. So I began the restoration. It restored, said it needed it again! I began to restore it again, and my Ipod froze on the restore screen (where the apple shows). I don't know how to fix this, and I really don't want to buy a new one.
Help?What happens if you try resetting it while still connected and restoring it one more time in iTunes? To reset the iPod, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Safari problems, don't know how to fix!!
I just bought a new Mac Mini, system 10.10 with Safari 8.0. I'm regretting the decision! I see other people are having a lot of problems with Safari too (or is it the system?). I get pop-up ads even though my preferences are set to block them, when I open a new tab it's pre-loaded with a fake site, when I click on a link in a search engine it takes me to a fake site, portions of the page don't load, etc. I am getting extremely frustrated! I know the cause of the problem is Safari but I don't know how to fix this! I see lots of posts for fixing individual problems but is there something I can do to fix everything? I wish I hadn't bought this computer, but I need a computer and all my data is on a mac. Please help, I'm not tech-savvy and this is driving me bonkers.
Thanks,

I think I'll take it to the Apple store and ask them to do a clean install
That's really overkill, but if that's what is necessary to make you feel better about using the computer, so be it. If you want to avoid that, see the links I gave you.
(I wish they'd given us disks with the computer so I could do my own clean install!).
You actually can do your own clean install, and no disks are required these days. Hold down command-R at startup to enter recovery mode. From there, you can use Disk Utility to erase the hard drive, then reinstall the system (which will require being able to download about 4+ GB from Apple's servers). Be sure you have good backups first, as this will destroy everything on the hard drive.
For more information on how to do this properly, and not import something from the backups of the old system, see:

BTW, for the future, you could create two accounts for your son - one for homework, with fewer websites allowed but no time limits, and one for games, with time limitations but allowing access to sites like Webkinz. Then he can't mess up your account.
