    Plug the phone and iPad into your computer and sync them.

    Keep the (left) mouse key down while booting.
    Use Disk Utility to eject the drive.
    Try eject key on your keyboard.
    There should also be a little hole in the front of the DVD player where you could insert a paper clip (last resort).

  • Hi, just wondering how do i get rid of viruses on my mac pro?! as soon as i go on the internet other windows pops up and the whole screen starts to play up, like it starts to click things that i didn't even click?! help please

    hi i was just wondering how do i get rid of viruses?! Everytime i go on safari my computer goes all weird and starts to pop up with other internet sites without me even typing it in. My arrow also starts to click on all things that i didn't even click on and opens up apps that i didn't want?!

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be applicable.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable.
    2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check for unknown or forgotten input devices. Disconnect any USB input devices that you aren't using.
    3. Boot in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you reboot as usual, stop here and post your results. If you can't boot in safe mode, do the same. If you booted in safe mode and there was no change, go on to the next step.
    4. Reset the System Management Controller.
    5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    6. A swollen battery in a MacBook Pro or Air can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

  • How do I get pages 4 for my new mac pro?

    I have a new Mac Pro (running Mavericks) that comes packaged with the unusable Pages5.  I use Pages4 on my Macbook Pro and also want to use it on my Mac Pro.  Since it's no longer available for purchase, can someone please tell me how I can get a version onto my Mac Pro? 
    Thanks.

    Yes you can.
    Purchase iWork '09 very cheaply from Amazon, less than $20, or migrate it over from an old System/Mac. Just make sure you update it to v 4.3.

  • If i previously had my iTunes library set up on an external hard drive, how do I get my iTunes on my new mac pro to operate off of the same hard drive?

    I recently bought a mac pro. I previously had a macbook that I had set up for iTunes to run off of an external hard drive. How do I set up my mac pro to run off of this hard drive?  I have been trying to figure it out for the last hour and have had no luck.
    I have tried to move my itunes folder on my mac pro to my external hard drive but am having no luck. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    If you had the entire library running from the external drive it should be a matter of holding down option as you start iTunes and browsing to the library on the external drive.
    If you'd followed the advice to move the media folder only then ideally you need to recover the library folder from your Macbook with a view to making the library portable on the external drive.
    Otherwise you're going to have to simply import the content into a new library, losing rating, playlists, play counts. etc.
    If you have any devices that sync to your library see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • How do i get my iphone to play music through docking station speakers?

    When I place my iPhone in my Bose docking station, it plays music through the iPhone's speakers.  How do I get my iPhone to route music playing through the Bose's speakers?  My Nano plays just fine in my docking station.

    Did you check to see that shuffle is is turned off?  To do this, while playing a song tap the cover art to reveal the additional controls if they are not already visible (see photo below).  Then tap the shuffle button (bottom right) until it turns white (white is off).

  • How do I get my iphone 4 to automatically trust my laptop?

    I recently upgraded my iphone 4 to the new IOS 7 and now my iphone won't automatically trust my laptop. How do I get my iphone 4 to automatically trust my laptop?

    Swipe up from the home screen to access the control center and find the rotation lock icon (lock icon circled with an arrow). If it's on, that icon will appear in your status bar and will be "lit up" in the control center. Tap it to turn the lock off and allow apps to rotate.

  • How do I get my iPhone 4 to stop locking as soon as I turn it off

    How do I get my iPhone 4 to stop locking as soon as I turn it off

    Do you mean that it's requiring a passcode lock as soon as it goes to sleep and you want a longer delay:
    Settings>General>Passcode Lock>Require Passcode Lock and change it to the length of time you want.
    Note: If you have a work email account on your phone, it may control how long before the passcode lock is required.
    Best of luck.

  • How do i get my iphone to vibrate only for calls on silent

    How do I get my iPhone to vibrate for calls only while my phone is on silent mode? I miss calls while my iphone is in my pocket because it doesn't vibrate when I get a call. I don't want it to vibrate for all the other apps either. Thanks!

    Hi chrish.22,
    As the settings for "Vibrate on Ring" and "Vibrate on Silent" are separate, you can set it to Vibrate for either Ring, Silent, or both.
    iPhone: Ringtones
    Setting iPhone to Vibrate 
    You can have iPhone vibrate when you receive a call. Separate controls let you sent iPhone to vibrate in ring mode, silent mode, or both. 
    Set whether iPhone vibrates 
    From the Home screen choose Settings > Sounds. To set whether iPhone vibrates in silent mode, turn Vibrateunder Silent  on or off. To set whether iPhone vibrates in ring mode, turn Vibrate under Ring  on or off.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My phone has the correct AppleID in the in settings section but asks me to login with one that isn't mine.  I deleted the ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with mine. How do I get my iPhone on the same page?

    My iphone4 has the correct Apple ID in the information settings section and asks me to login to my ID most of the time but when I try to update my apps, it asks me to login with an ID that isn't mine.  I deleted the wrong ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with my own ID to update apps.  How do I get my iphone on the same page?

    How did you obtain these apps? All apps are DRM protected & tied forever to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID(account), nor can they be updated using any Apple ID other than the one that was used to originally obtain them.

  • How can I get my iPhone to stop promting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I've checked settings for iTunes

    How can I get my iPhone 6 to stop prompting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I have verified in settings that my acct is listed in itunes & App Store, as well as icloud. i can download new apps fine. Have shut down phone and re-powered, have tried plugging into my iMac while signed into my iTunes acct. Can't figure out what to do next?

    Is the comp a synced device to your apple ID and approved as an active device for this synchronization?
    Just cloud the sync once, activate the comp to your apple I'd in iTunes, ensure all software is up to date, turn on home sharing between the devices and you can reinstall the apps from the apple id purchase history via download.
    You basically cleaned out the canonical data apple uses to validate all that, which was backup data. Like iOS devices have the purchased option on the App Store now, syncing the devices via the home sharing and properly activating them will give your comp the purchased cloud and free up 10gs of space on the precious solid states smaller drives.
    Hope that helps...
    If you need to know the menu to find this info, let me know. But the info is easily accessible in the help menu.
