    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

  • HT201471 will the Sprint model work on Verizon and vice versa?

    4th Generation Ipad. 
    Will the Sprint model work with Verizon and vice versa?  I understand they are both CDMA
    I see different prices out on the web

    To clarify further, the CDMA network is where the LTE comes in, correct? 
    Because I have a Sprint iPad 4 (ME411LL/A) with a Verizon LTE SIM card in it and can get decent 3G, but no 4G LTE.
    As I posted elsewhere:
    I bought an "unlocked" Sprint Gen4 iPad 128GB (ME411LL/A) for cheap and was hoping to use it on Verizon (my family plan). So far it's a bust. The Verizon Store and Customer Support won't touch it!
    I found online that folks are taking active Verizon 4G LTE SIM cards and popping them into other LTE devices and having success.
    I just happen to have a Verizon JetPack 4G LTE hotspot. I pulled the mini-SIM, cut it down to micro (re-verified it still works in the hotspot) and popped it into the iPad. I can get Verizon 3G, but no better.
    Any thoughts?
    I also found that Verizon LTE is 700 MHz and Sprint LTE is 800 MHz. Is this a showstopper?
    If I cannot get LTE to work, I will sell it to a real Sprint customer.

  • Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all?

    Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all? 
    Some one please clear this up for me, it could be answered in the simplestterms from the English Language of course.
    I've recently purchased the Linksys WRT160N however after purchase "of course"I manage to find reviews stating that the router will not work with the WindowsVista Premium, or windows Vista for that matter.
    E.g.(Comments like These 'which are not my own')----------
    "When I tried it with a new computer running Vista 64, it would install but the Linksys System Advisor would not. After 1 chat and 4 phone calls with support the system will still not run." 
     "It is a good product with XP, but if you use Vista 64 good luck. After several hours of working to get it running my patience and options have run out."
     "It has taken almost a week for us to figure out that the Linksys Router, WRT160N from Best Buy does not workwith Vista Premium. I looked on-line to Linksys Website and discovered that the router, WRT160N is notsupported for Vista users. .." 
    E.g. (CommentContradicting to what has been said above)------
    "Bought this to replace my outdated Linksys (new Vista laptop) and was blown away. Thisthing practically set itself up. It replaced the wired router and wireless routers I was using, asthe signal strength is awesome. I'm still pulling over 5meg ... "
    So I guess one could see why I am confused, based on the 2 sidedcontradictions pertaining to this router actually working with windows vista ornot.
    So can someone respond (preferable a Vista User) and tell me the truth as of towhat this router can an cannot do in terms of Vista? Thanks 

    It should work with vista without any issues if you are running any software on the computers (64 bit) from linksys it may not work but if you will connect that computer with an ethernet to the router it should work fine.

    You only need a plug adaptor as long as the voltage is between 100 and 240 volts.

  • I need to back up my iphone to complete the unlocking process of my phone. I do not have my laptop with me, what is another way to backup my phone?

    I need to back up my iphone to have the phone unlocked. That is the final step of the process. I do not have my computer with me that I originally set it up with. Is thereany other way to back my phone up?

    You can back it up to iCloud as Oshun9 suggests, but you'll still need your computer in order to perform the restore, which is part of the unlock process...

  • How To Do The Unlocking Process On AT&T Iphone 5 Without The Original Nano Sim?

    My sister is a regular customer of AT&T in North Carolina, USA. She bought  Iphone 5 from AT&T. And after the "contract is finished" my sister avail another newer model of iphone from AT&T and she send the iphone 5 to me, here in Philippines, without the original nano sim. her son get the original nano sim of this iphone, and end up in the thrash can when her son avail newer version of iphone TOO fro AT&T... I ask my sister to contact AT&t to unlock this phone so that i can use in our country. She comply and contact AT&T for a request to unlock this device, and AT&T replied to the request. After a day AT&T send the "UNLOCKING PROCESS" to my sister. She email me the Unlocking Process sent by AT&T.  I tried to unlock the device using the unlocking process sent by AT&T and the methods on the apple site >> iPhone: About unlocking but, to my dismay itunes and the iphone always respond me with the message "ACTIVATION REQUIRED" and "INVALID SIM" after restoring the device in itunes to IOS 8.0.2 or doing the the unlocking process.
    Is there any other way to unlock this "Iphone" without its original sim? 
    This are the photos of the responses of AT&T regarding the request of my sister and the UNLOCKING PROCESS >>>>>>>

    When i placed my old AT&T nano sim,( not the original sim came with the device when puchased), This SS is the result in itunes>>>>>>

  • How does the login process works with a bind to AD?

    Hi there,
    I am trying to bind our mac to our Active Directory. Before doing I'd like to understand well how the login process works. Is there any reference I could look up to?
    For what I've understood until now with an example user "testAccount" and no automount and no AD extension and the ADplugin set as:
    a) if mobile is set, then a /Users/testAccount is created and if UNC is set then a smbHome is mounted "on desktop". If UNC is not set, do nothing more
    b) if force is set, then a /Users/testAccount is created and if UNC is set then a smbHome is mounted "on desktop". If UNC is not set, do nothing more
    c) if force is NOT set:
    --c1) if UNC is not set and cannot map NFSHomedirectory at all, then login the user with such a temporary home
    --c2) if UNC is set mount SMBhome and use it as mounted home folder (NFSHomeDirectory-->SMBhome "/Network/Servers/my.server.com/users/testAccount")
    --c3) if UNC is not set then retrieve the homeDirectory-NIS's attribute in AD (NFSHomeDirectory--> "/homes/testAccount") and create /homes/testAccount
    my doubt now is point c2) after I login in with a "#mount" I get:
    trigger on /Network/Servers/my.server.com/users (autofs, automounted)
    //[email protected]/users on /Network/Servers/my.server.com/users (smbfs, nodev, nosuid, automounted, mounted by testaccount)
    but my SMBhome is not correctly mounted on remote server (but the Library folder and MCX files are created!) and I get home errors because the system is looking for "/homes/testAccount", which I don't know where it is coming out from given that a
    #dscl /Active\ Directory/my.server.com -read /Users/testaccount |grep homes gives only out dsAttrTypeNative:unixHomeDirectory: /homes/testAccount
    thanks,
    a.

  • Will the Cinema Display work with an older MacBook Air?

    My wife has an older MacBook Air (circa late 2009) with one USB 2.0 port and one Mini Display port. Will the Cinema display work with this model Air?

    It looks to me like the cinema display is a DVI connection.  If  you have a MiniDisplay port to DVI adapter that connected the MBpro to the display then you have everything you need.  (plus a DVI cable).   The MDP adapter plugs into the Thunderbolt port of the MBair.

    No. If you want a 2013 iMac with a VESA mount, you have to order it from Apple that way. Or consider this:
