How do I get out of continual reboot screens while installing Snow Leopard in my Macbook?

I started loading Snow Leopard on my Macbook. It asked for a reboot. I rebooted and it keeps going back to the same reboot screen. I don't see any other screen. Id there a way to eject the disk or get to another screen to get out of this?

Sounds like a bad system installation. Were you upgrading or installing on a freshly formatted drive? Do you have a compatible retail copy of Snow Leopard that will work with your computer?
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.
If you leave the DVD in the drive and restart the computer then after the chime press and hold down the "C" key until the computer starts from the DVD. Then do this:
Drive Preparation
1. 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.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
7. After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the Snow Leopard installation.

How do I get rid of the blue text that says no savings found?

on every site I use these random words are in light blue and if i roll the mouse over it a small box pops up and says no savings found, in the lower right corner says adfull. Is this a firefox thing ( it doesn't happen on IE) if so how do I get rid of it? It is annoying especially appearing on my game site
I use everyday.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

How do I get rid of the "Inbox" screen that has taken over my web access? I have already uninstalled it, to no avail.

Everytime I go to my home page, this Inbox screen comes up. I uninstalled the program, but it still comes up, implying that it is embedded in something else. I want to be able to simply go to my web browser, Yahoo, when I click on my home button.

I finally got a hold of someone at that search us.com. They gave me this link to try and solve the problem. I have already reinstalled firefox but it might help someone else out. And it's much simpler. I haven't tried it but they said to get a hold of them if it didn't work. the link is:
Running ResetBrowsers.exe from http://support.search.us.com/uninstall.php should restore your settings to their defaults
Hope I'm not misusing this post. Thanks again for all your help. Your are all awesome.

How to get past I pod touch screen that says " I pod touch disabled, try again in 22000000 minutes"

MY iPod touch is disabled ans says retry again in 22000000 minutes. When I attempt to restore, the software downloads but the device does not restore. How do I bypass the disabled screen to put the iPod back in working order? Please help.

Maybe here:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .

How can I get rid of a white screen that appears for 3 secs on startup

Since my last Thunderbird upgrade to 31.3 I get a white screen for 3 seconds during start-up and before I see my folders.
I use Thunderbird to access one Yahoo.co.uk account and 2 Outlook.com accounts.
All plugins are disabled.
I have one extension, CompactHeader 2.0.9 which I removed but the problem remained. I have now reinstalled it.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird - problem just the same.
If I start in safe mode there is no white screen, it loads normally straight to folders.
I'm not sure what to try next so any suggestions are welcome.
Cheers

How do I get to the firefox start page (that says Google)?

When I click on the Firefox icon on my XP desktop, I just get a blank page. Sometimes it just goes to Yahoo.
I just want the Firefox start page that has Google (blank). Because that is where my bookmarks are.

Look at the top of the Firefox where it says '''File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Help''' and click on the Tools ->Options ->General
If you have the Menu bar hidden and have a orange Firefox button then click on the an look to righe side of that menu where it says "Options"
If you want the Firefox start page as home page then set it as
http://www.google.com/firefox/

How do i get rid of the confirmation popup that says This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed

when navigating on certain sites (fiverr.com is one), i get the popup confirmation "This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed to the new location?"
this is highly annoying and i can't find a way to turn this annoyance off. help!

because of its impact on security this error message cannot be suppressed. you might want to contact the admins of the website where this is occuring and ask them to implement a handling of user input without sending it to a different server...

How do i get rid of the white screen that appears?

When using my ipod the screen will suddenly turn white. I've tried restarting it and plugging into to itunes, but nothing seems to work. Is my ipod bust or is there anything else i can try to fix it?

You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less. Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

How do I get out of the fullscreen of death?

Hi,
Hoping someone alse has experienced this and come up with a solution:
I've lost control of Aperture and don't know what to do. I'm running Aperture 3.3.2 and Mac OSX 10.7.5(11G56) on a 15 inch mid-2010 MBP.
I inadvertently pressed some combination of keys and here's where I am now. It's a black screen with just the Aperture toolbar popping in and out as I movet he mouse cursor to the top. Tool tips appear, but buttons are non responsive.
Pressing 'F' doesn't do any thing and I cannot press the double arrow button on the upper right to exit full screen. Left/right keys don't switch pictures as I'd expect. Only two keys provide response:
The [ESC] key brings me to a blank textil- textured screen where 'F' toggles between this and a screenfull of thumbnails.
The Aperture menu appears on the left part of this thumbnail screen(along with my widgets and the date, time and log in name on the right side), but is inaccessible(no mouse response). Only the widgets on the upper right of the menu bar react to mouse clicks.
'F' toggles between this and the first screen.
I can only get out of these screens by swiping four fingers to move to another desktop.
So how do I get out of this full screen of death?
Hoping for a solution
Fullscreened to death,
Benny

Benny,
Where do I find the plist file? It's not in HD/library/prferences?
you have to look in the user preferences, not the system preferences:
The user preferences are hidden by default; reveal them from the Finder's "Go" menu:
Quit Aperture, if it is running:
Open the user library by using the Finder's "Go > Go to Folder" menu and hold down the options-key, until "Library" appears in the drop down menu. Select it.
In the widow that will open, scroll down to "Preferences"
From the "Preferences" folder remove "com.apple.Aperture.plist".
Then try to launch Aperture again.
Regards
Léonie

How do i get out of white screen after login

How do i get out of the white screen after signing on to my computer.

Hi GregConk,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If I understand right, your iMac is only starting up to a blank white screen after you log in. If so, there are some good troubleshooting steps that may resolve this behavior.
First, try booting your computer into Safe Mode, to see if your desktop appears in this mode:
Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift).
Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
If your Mac starts up as expected, immediately try restarting.
From:
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup - Apple Support
If you see your desktop in Safe Mode, but not when starting up normally, try the troubleshooting tips in this article next:
OS X Yosemite: If you think you have incompatible login items
Best Regards,
Jeremy

How do I get to the old iTunes screen...

How do I get to the old iTunes screen that used to pop up when I plug my IP into my MBA? I used to get a screen that showed whatever device I had hooked up.
This morning I got a message that there is an IP update, but that I have paid data on my IP that is not on my computer, do I want to install the update.
And the answer is no, not until I get whatever it is transferred to my computer. There used to be a pulldown menu asking "do you want to transfer programs from your device to iTunes?" Not there anymore or at least that I can find.
I suspect this problem has something to do with the cloud and automatic syncing between devices..

Kind of solved my own problem by updating the IP wirelessly (6.1.4). Then in plugging the IP into my MBA, I was able to get to the pull down menu that allows transfer of programs and apps to my MBA.
While I can see the advantage of being able to update the IP wirelessly, I much prefered the old iTunes interface that among other things, made it easy to "eject" the IP from being wired up to my MBA.

Flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

I have had the same problem for WEEKS and I cannot access any sites that use Flash. Flash has been installed on this computer since I bought it in 2012. I have allowed auto updates but for weeks the updates never get past Step 2 - is this because I do NOT want the Google Tool bar? I use NO tool bars as there is only 6 inches of vertical screen space. Is this because I uncheck wanting Chrome as a default browser? It is already installed, I just don't use it. I came to this site and ran the check is it installed and the system says it is either not installed or not enabled. Version 14 just downloaded about 30 minutes ago - but did not progress to Step 3 although a pop up screen came up with a finish button, which I clicked. WHAT is the problem and how do I fix it? If this were just a compatibility bug between IE11 and Adobe they have had plenty of time to fix it.
