HT1750 What about TWO different numbers in MacOs (about this mac window) and on the bottom of the foot of the iMac ???

What about TWO different serial numbers in macOs (about this mac window) and on the foot of the mac. This mac was not purchased as a refurbished nor has been sent for servicing on any time since purchasing...
The one in MacOs is answering : "This is not a valid Apple Product serial number" when i try to check the iMac 1TB Seagate Hard Drive Replacement Program...

You will need to check with Apple - might be a good idea to take it to a Genius Bar so they can see it for themselves (and the diagnosis is free).

    OS X installers have always been fairly specific, hardware-wise. I haven't read anything reflecting that situation with the Recovery HD, so it may be that the Recovery HD created for the MacBook Pro does not have the necessary drivers for the Mac Pro. Obviously, nothing definitive here, but a possibility.

    On which device do you normally check mail?
    I assume you must normally check on the phone and that is why you don't see it often.  If you checked a POP account on your phone and hten tried to check the POP email account on your computer you would find that amy POP emails you accessed on your phone would not appear on the computer and that is because you have already downloaded them on the phone and they are no longer on the server so when your computer checks for mail the server responds to the computer and says there are no recent messages.  The reverse of this would occur ifyou found new mail on your computer from the POP account.  That new mail would not be found on the phone mail app

  • How do you edit the 'About this mac' window?

    Hi,
    I need to edit the about this mac window - pictured here to remind you of what exactly it is ( http://www.pluggedinmac.com/Picture%201.jpg )- in order to further my understanding of how this aspect of Macintosh works.
    I will be extremely greatful of all replies
    Thanks
    James

    You'll need to be a bit more specific about what you mean by "edit".
    If you want to edit the actual .nib file (the archive which describes the window), it's at
    /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Ab outThisMac.nib
    Nib files can normally be edited by using the Interface Builder application that's part of the Xcode developer tools.
    However, since you're on an Intel-based Mac, you won't be able to edit the nib unless you first find a version from a Power PC Mac. The reason for this is that .nib files aren't actually a file, but a package that includes different parts inside the primary folder. For example, if you Control-click on the AboutThisMac.nib mentioned above, and choose Show Package Contents, a new Finder window will open which shows a single item "keyedobjects.nib". That is an actual file which holds the archived user interface objects (using key/value coding/archiving, hence the "keyed" in the name). To be able to open and edit a .nib file in Interface Builder, however, you need two additional files inside named "classes.nib" and "info.nib". These provide Interface Builder with the information necessary to properly open the nib. By removing those two files from the nib, a developer can essentially make the nib "read-only", meaning it will work fine when the application it's a part of needs to use it, but an end-user (or their competition) cannot open the nib file in Interface Builder to see how the objects were constructed. Most nibs that are part of an OS X install on PowerPC-based Macs include the necessary files and can be opened in Interface Builder. Most of the nibs included with Intel-based Macs, on the other hand, do not include those files and can't be opened in Interface Builder without first copying the "classes.nib" and "info.nib" files from a PowerPC-based Mac's nib to the Intel version of the nib.
    Hope this helps....

  • Remove ATA from 'About this Mac' window

    I replaced my MATSHITACD-RW CW-8122 on my PB to a straight HD, Hitachi HTS541616J9AT00. My question is when I open the 'About this Mac' window it still shows the MATSHITACD-RW CW-8122 even though it has been removed. How do I get rid of that info because my DVD/CD burning software references the non-existant drive.
    ??

    Ok cornelius it was a while back when I changed it because the drive it came w/was becoming noisy and the time I had 40GB of music and tons of pictures so I figured it was time to replace. This is exactly what I see in the 'System Profiler' (I figured out that is what I am referring not 'About this Mac')

  • Why is "more info" greyed out in the About This Mac window?

    RE:  MacBook Air running OS X 10.6.8
    The More Info... is greyed out in the About This Mac window... how can I ungrey it to get info?

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • PDF file shows different numbers of text blocks in CC 2014 and CS6

    Hi,
    I've inherited a file at work that displays different numbers of text blocks, depending on the version of Acrobat used to view the file. Here's the specific issue:
    As viewed in CC 2014:
    "Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title": Appears as two text blocks -- one for "Chapter 1 - " and one for "Chapter One Title"
    As viewed in CS 6:
    "Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title": Appears as a single text block -- "Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title"
    This occurs only with regard to single-digit chapter numbers that are whole numbers. So:
    Chapter 1, Chapter 5, and Chapter 7 entries appear as two blocks in CC 2014, one block in CS6.
    Chapter 2.0, Chapter 6.1, Chapter 10, entries appear in single blocks in both CC 2014 and CS6.
    The PDF file was created -- I believe -- through the save-to-PDF feature in Word 2010.
    Any idea what's happening here?
    Thanks.
    David

  • Can I use two different HD's to backup my Mac?

    I was thinking how to make my backups more resilient. At the moment I take one weekly backup from my Mac using Time Machine - I then store the TM hard-disk away somewhere safe. (BTW - the reason I don't leave the TM disk connected all the time and run continuous backups is that I figure if someone breaks into my house, they'll just take the Mac and the hard disk!).
    I'm now thinking what happens if the TM hard disk fails and I can't restore from it? So I thought about maybe getting a second external hard disk, and alernating my backups each week to a different disk. As well as providing extra protection against a failure, I could also store the two backup disks in different places to add further resilience.
    Would TIme Machine get confused however if I use two different disks to run backups from the same Mac?
    Thanks for any advice...

    Time Machine won't get confused if you use it to back up to alternating disks. You have to run a complete, full initial backup on each machine, of course. When you swap disks, use the Time Machine pref pane to "choose" the backup disk that's currently connected.
    The "Preparing Backup" stage takes longer on the first backup after the swap - but it would do that if you had just not used the same drive for a week, too.
    Of course, YOU might get confused with this setup if you're looking for an older version of an existing file and the specific one you want is on the "other" drive, but it sounds like you're just looking for a "restore in case of disaster" solution rather than using the versioning history Time Machine provides.
    (Also - if the drive isn't big - physical dimensions, I mean - it might be easier to unplug it and shove it in a drawer if you think your Mac might be grabbed but the rest of the place not get ransacked.)

  • Iphone will not charge via usb-to-computer nor via brick; I've tested with two different cables. Just before this problem arose, I got messages similar to "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone."

    Most of my concern is in the subject line. I probably should've saved some content to include here. Allow me to elaborate:
    While traveling with the tiny brick, I got a message on my 3GS phone that "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone”; however, the charger was working fine with another phone and with an iPad.
    I tested alternatives by removing and re-inserting the cable (obviously, as I tested other devices), changing wall receptacles, shutting the phone off (all the way), all to no avail.
    When I got home, I plugged a different cable--one that was connected to my iMac rather than the brick--into the my 3GS; it still didn't charge.
    So, I'm hypothesizing that perhaps some debris (from a pocket?) got into the charging receptacle of the 3GS and is disrupting the connection. Perhaps there are other hypotheses.
    I am reluctant to do a reset, as (a) the problem doesn't appear to be a software issue (the phone and software are all working, though the charge is declining) and (b) I don't want to lose the contents before I can sync it (now that I'm home, again).
    I'd welcome suggestions. Meanwhile, I suppose I shall e-mail photos and notes from the phone to myself before I lose the remaining charge.

    Try to clean the 30-pin receiver slot either by blowing air into it or using a microfiber cloth. If the problem persists, based on what you've already said, I'd say the problem is most likely hardware, and would need to be replaced or repaired. I hope your iPhone is still under the 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty, or if applicaable extended warranty. You can check by calling AppleCare National iPhone Technical Support at 1 (800) 694-7466.

    I'm running into the DBA not wanting to give me tablespace for my materialized views so I have to fight for that. Then he wants to know what size they are going to be and I had so many issues running the estimate size I just didn't have rights. I now have the rights and the code comes back with bytes blank and num blank. I don't know where to go from here with the DBA. I have ran the code on several differnent tables and I get indentifet too long or I get the bytes with no byte count and the num with not number.
    The DBA seems to never want to do anything for anyone. I have heard nothing but complaints.
