HT1310 How can I eject in boot manager running OS X 10.5

In the article, it says that if you press the eject button on the keyboard the disc drive will eject. I must be running an older version of Mac because it looks different than in the pic of the selector, so that is probably why I can't eject the drive. If you know what button to press please reply to me.
Thanks!

I'm trying to install bootcamp and XP, but when keyboard does't work. How can I eject the disc?

How can I eject the disc and start over and get into the OSX system?

XP isn't supported in BootCamp, you'll have to use the free VirualBox or one of the other commercial virtual machine softwares to run it in a window on OS X. The performance isn't going to be good enough for 3D games or heavy CPU ones, but good enought for most general use software.
Apple doesn't supply the hybrid MBR and hardware drivers required to run XP in BootCamp any longer. If you were on Snow Leopard 10.6 it's still possible, but not Lion or Mountain Lion.
This is what you do to resolve your problem.
1: Hold the power button down to force a hardware shutdown (emergency use only use the Apple Menu > shutdown all other times)
2: Press and hold the option/alt key on the keyboard.
3: Boot the computer and enter Startup Manager
4: Keep pressing the eject key on the keyboard, the disk will eject.
5: Select OS X to boot from by clicking on the volume and the little arrow that appears.
6: Set Startup Disk in System Preferences to OS X.
7: Head to BootCamp Utility and use it to remove the BootCamp partition.
8: If you used Disk Utility, then use that to remove the second partition and absorb the remaining space back into the OS X partition.
9: Install VirtualBox, if on 10.8 you migh have to control/right click and "Open" to bypass Gatekeeper controls for the installer and/or program at least once.
10: Read the instructions how to setup and use VirtualBox.

How can I get a boot-disk for a Compaq P2500 laptop Windows XP Home Edition?

I'm already in another forum with a eerily similar question, but that's for the HP Media Center Pavilion m8000e desktop system (Windows Vista Home Premium) I was just given; I've ordered a new hard drive for that. I assume the directions to create a boot disk with the *.iso file (using Imgburn) is going to work; I have the 25-digit code for that.
This question here now is for my wife's older Compaq P2500 2596US laptop running Windows XP Home Edition. This too needs a new hard drive, but I also am missing the boot disc for this; I do have the 25-digit product code.
How can I get a boot disk for this laptop? I tried the Ubuntu method outlined in a few posts; geez, what a headache ... never could get it managed. Does HP not make any boot disks available? Microsoft told me to check with HP.
I can furnish the product code; model #; serial# ... gee, maybe the oroginal receipt is even laying around somewhere ...
I need a boot disk to get the new hard drive up on board (if I end up ordering that).
Thanks for any help!
Michael

How can i eject a mini disc?

I inserted a mini-disc on my mac and now I can't see it anywhere and it is stuck
How can I eject it?

Well, you can try:
Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.
But this only works if it's a tray drive. If it's a slot drive all you can do is try to shake it out or take it in for service.

How can I set to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows?

How can I choose to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows? I have a MacBook Pro Leo 10.6.8. I used bootcamp to install Windows XP SP2, but now if I don't press the option key it will start up with Windows, and I don't want that. Thanks for any help.

Select it in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.

Hi, how can I as a company manage the download of apps? Can I as a company use only one account for all my employees to download the needed apps?

Hi,
we as a company consider to use the iPhone instead of the Blackberrys for business telecommunication.
I, personally, use the iPhone privatly. I have my account and download the Apps I need.
But how can a company like ours manage this? Is there a possiility to install an account for the company with one Apple-ID? Are the employees allowed to install the mandatory Apps. by using this account? Or should the company install everything centrally by MDM e.g.?
How about licensing?
Thanks in advanxce for your answers!!
Best regards

How can I eject a small cd from my laptop?

How can I eject a small sized cd from my drive? It was only about 3". Help!

Shut down the MBP and disconnect all peripherals and the AC adapter from it. hold it up on end with the drive slot toward the floor and gently shake it up and down in hopes that the disc will eventually find its way out through the slot. If this doesn't work out, take the machine to an Apple Store or authorized service provider to have the drive removed and the disc removed from it. This work won't be covered by your warranty; you'll have to pay for it.
Take the time to read the manual that came with your MBP. It specifically instructs you not to insert nonstandard CDs or DVDs into the drive, and there's a lot of other information in it that you need to know.

How can I view the boot volume permissions?

How can I view the boot volume permissions in the Terminal and/or Single User Mode?
I have tried: 'ls -l /Volumes' but this appears to only work for the non-boot volumes. I can test this by 'sudo chmod 777 /' followed by 'ls -l /Volumes' but the change is not reflected by the new list.

I prefer to have my bootable volumes as follows:
drwxrwxr-x
I see no point in allowing others to write to / and sticky here often gets in my way. Can you see anything wrong with this?
I couldn't say, as I let Mac OS X do what it wants with the / root directory. I don't know how sticky can hurt, as you need to have elavated privs to do anything in root anyway.
But if it is working for you, have fun. Just make a note to yourself somewhere that you have made this change, so that if something stops working, you can take this change into consideration. And if this change does not cause problems, but does something useful for you, you can use the note to remind yourself that you need to re-make the change when installing a new system. So take notes on your changes. It will make your life easier in the future.

Deauthorizing the computer will only cause you to have to enter a password to play iTunes Store purchases on that computer. It doesn't have anything to do with media thats synced to the iPod, other than the account user name is synced too.
Check this Apple document out -> Using iPad or iPod with multiple computers
If you want to delete the music library on your device and make the new computer its "home" computer, choose Erase and Sync. iTunes will delete all songs and playlists on your device, and then will copy the music library and playlists from the new home computer to your device.
If you want to move the iTunes Store purchases on your device to the new computer, choose "Transfer Purchases." The new computer must be set up with your iTunes Store account and authorized to play your iTunes Store purchases in order to transfer your iTunes Store purchases.
Notes:
Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your device. However, if you are legally allowed to transfer song files, you can use your iPod as a hard disk3. An exception is the transfer purchases feature, which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to an authorized computer from your device.

How can I find out what is running in the background and running my batterie down

How can I find out what is running in the background

Hi simpbarby,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The links below will help you understand what apps are running on your iPhone. You can quit the ones that you aren't using.
iOS: Understanding multitasking
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
This link will provides tips to conserving battery life:
Apple - Batteries - iPhone
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
Optimize Your Settings
Depending on how they are set, a few features may decrease your iPhone battery life. The tips below apply to an iPhone running iOS 7.0 or later.
Enable Wi-Fi: Having Wi-Fi enabled helps consume less power when doing activities that access data. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and log in to a Wi-Fi network.
Adjust brightness: Dim the screen or turn on Auto-Brightness to extend battery life. Turning on Auto-Brightness allows the screen to adjust based on lighting conditions.
Fetch new data less frequently: The more frequently email or other data is fetched, the quicker your battery may drain. To fetch data manually: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Manually.
Turn off push notifications: Apps with Push Notification alert you of new data, which may impact battery life. To disable, go to Settings > Notifications, choose the app you want to disable, and do the following:
Change Alert Style to None.
Turn Badge App Icon off.
Turn Sounds off.
Note: New data will be received when you open the app.
Minimize use of location services: Apps that actively use location services, such as Maps, may reduce battery life. You can see which applications have recently used location services by going to Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
Use Airplane Mode in low- or no-coverage areas: Your iPhone always tries to maintain a connection with the cellular network, which may use more power in low- or no-coverage areas. Turn on Airplane Mode to increase battery life in these situations.
Viewing Usage StatisticsKnowing and understanding your iPhone usage can help you better manage your battery life. To view your iPhone usage statistics, go to Settings > General > Usage. Under “Time since last full charge”:
Usage: Amount of time iPhone has been awake and in use since the last full charge. iPhone is awake when you’re on a call, using email, listening to music, browsing the web, or sending and receiving text messages, or during certain background tasks such as auto-checking email.
Standby: Amount of time iPhone has been powered on since its last full charge, including the time the phone has been asleep.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!
