HT1338 The Bluetooth on my macbook wont turn on. Not even giving me the option to turn on/off any more. all it shows is "Bluetooth : Unavailable" form one day to the next. AHHHHHH!

So blue tooth was working just fine with my wireless keyboard and now not so much. I see the Bluetooth icon on top and its not allowing me to see anything about the setup like it did before. now it's just telling me that it's "Not Available"....... looked for Bluetooth options on preference window and all it found me was the sharing folder where there was nothing about bluetooth.

Shut your Mac down - not reboot, do a shut down - then boot it up and see whether the problem has cleared. As it happens, I had exactly the same thing a couple of days ago: a reboot didn't cure it but a shut down did.

    how do I connect my new (purchased last week) macbook air to my samsung smart tv? I purchased the adapter at the apple store and connected to the TV via HDMI cable.  The TV says "no signal.  I do not see TV as an option in the display tab of system preferences.  what else do I need to do?

    First, make sure your TV is tuned to display the correct input signal. Most TVs have several inputs (multiple HDMIs, cable connections, RCA etc) so double-check that you're using the correct one - HDMI1, HDMI2 or whatever is written next to the port.
    I assume that you have a mini-Displayport to HDMI adaptor? If you open displays preferences, first tick the box that says "show display preferences in menu bar" then locate the menu and click Detect Displays. See if that helps.

    Starting in Firefox 14, Firefox will guess an address and place it in the address bar (AutoFill feature). If you have ever connected to the site using a secure (HTTPS) connection, then Firefox will try to connect security to the address suggested by the AutoFill feature. To work around this you can:
    * Edit the address to force Firefox to interpret your entry literally. For example, if there is a trailing / you can remove it.
    * Turn off the URL bar AutoFill feature and just use the AutoSuggest drop-down.
    * Clear Firefox's memory of the site so it doesn't default to a secure connection (however, this also removes any bookmarks you have to pages on the site).
    To disable the in-address-bar autofill without losing the suggestions that appear below the bar:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''autofill''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''browser.urlbar.autoFill''' to toggle it from true to false. You're done with about:config and you can close this tab.
    "Forget about this site" will clear cache, history, bookmarks, and permissions for the site, and probably any saved certificate. There are two ways to get to this:
    * History > Show All History, right-click an entry for the site > "Forget about this site"
    * Type or paste about:permissions in the address bar and press Enter, then select the site from the list on the left side, and click the "Forget about this site" button on the right side
    Depending on the size of your history and cache, this may lock Firefox up for a minute or two while everything is cleansed.

    I have a 2010 Macbook Pro and am a very new user to Mac community only started to use this PC a few weeks ago.
    My Mac is just hanging and I am unable to shut it down or do anything at all.  I left it for 2.5 days hoping the battery will run flat but it is not working. Pls help! I am desperate. Tx

    In order to resolve the issue if it occurs again, more info would be helpful as to what occurred prior to the "hang." One potential fix would be to try a Safe Boot:
    After the Mac is completely shut down, push the power button and immediately after the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    There should be a message that says "SafeBoot." After the Mac is completely booted, try restarting and see if the issue is gone.

  • After hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

    after hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

    You need to put the headset into pairing mode. The phone should then see it even though you have done the forget this device.

  • My itunes won't print.  Printer show nothing in que.  One day it and the next no

    My itune won't print.  One day worked, the next no.  printer works fine but when trying to print itunes it does'nt even show in the printer que.

    Before you tear out your hair, follow the steps that Casper recommends. It works in minutes. The reformatting will mean you will have to reload your music, but that's better than tearing out your hair for sure. I feel lucky to have stumbled across the following instructions before too many hours went by. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!
    Windows users: If you are not able to restore the iPod, you can try to format it:
    Open Control Panel
    Click the "switch to classic view" link, if necessary
    Double click "administrative tools"
    Double click "computer management"
    Under "storage" click on "disk management"
    Find your iPod's listing
    Right-click on it and click "format"
    Select "FAT32" and start the format
    After this, your I-TUNES should start up and ask you to register the NANO again, but at LEAST IT RECOGNIZES IT again. WOOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!!

  • My iphone died today and now it wont boot up not even a apple sign is sowin any help???

    Thats the flat battery screen.
    - Try another cable
    - Try another wall adaptor
    - Check the iPhone charging port to see if there is any damage or debris
    If the iPhone does not charge with known working cables/adaptors I would suggest to take the iPhone into an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider for evaluation and if need be service.
