I am having issues with the disk drive accepting any type of disk, like a music CD. Is there any way to fix this without taking it to a Tech?

I need this fixed extremely quickly. I'm a photographer and I have two Senior photo shoots on Sunday (September 16), so I need to be able to use my computer that night for editing.

No. Of course you are suppose to have backups for all of your important work.

I'm trying to connect to my home wifi with my imac gh5. After I enter the password it says connection timeout or password incorrect. I know there's no issue with the connection but I don't know what else to do. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

What is the make & model of your home Wi-Fi router that you are attempting to connect your G5 iMac to? Which exact model of iMac do you have?
What wireless security type is your router using: WEP, WPA, or WPA2? If you temporarily disable wireless security, can the iMac connect to it now?

[SOLVED] Having Issues with the Nouveau Driver and ACPI

Hello,
Trying to set up an old laptop I have with Arch and I'm having issues getting X up and running. My graphics chip is:
01:00.0 VGA compatable controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 Go] (rev b2)
I've installed xf86-video-nouveau and get the following error when starting X:
(EE) [drm] failed to open device
(EE) No devices detected.
From what I understand, I need the nouveau-drm package installed, which no longer exists in the repos. The nouveau-drm-lts package gives dependency errors:
warning: cannot resolve "kernel26-lts>=2.6.32", a dependency of "nouveau-drm-lts"
warning: cannot resolve "kernel26-lts<2.6.33", a dependency of "nouveau-drm-lts"
Seems this is because those packages are no longer named "kernel" but "linux" instead.
I've also tried using the proprietary nvidia driver, but I need the legacy 93xx driver, which the nvidia page in the Arch Wiki states it does not support Xorg 1.11.

Went ahead and installed nouveau back to get an Xorg log. Here it is (though I'm getting a new error now):

After upgrading to Firefox 3.6.11, the browser does not see my previous browsing history, and does not save new history. places.sqlite is still in place. Is there a way to fix this without erasing previous history?

Bookmarks are still being updated and saved. Recently closed tabs, Recently closed windows are being recorded as they should. I have a single .json file on my profile directory, search.json. I don't know if there should be another one for the browsing history. It looks like some index file for the history database was lost or corrupted, or re-created as an empty file. places.sqlite-journal has zero bytes; places.sqlite-stmtjrnl has 37 kbytes, date 2008-07-15.

I kept trying to solve this problem, and after a few unsuccessful attempts, the only thing which worked was uninstalling Firefox (keeping all my customizations) and then reinstalling Firefox 3.6.10 (which is apparently no longer available at mozilla.org, but which I could easily find at filehippo.com). The unsuccessful attempts I made were: (1) Install Firefox 4 beta; (2) uninstall Firefox 4 beta, Firefox 3.6.11 (in both uninstalls, keeping my customizations), and reinstall Firefox 3.6.11.
So right now I am stuck at Firefox 3.6.10, or I will loose access to my browsing history. If anyone at Mozilla.org is reading this, I would suggest taking a look at this issue to see if it can be reproduced and fixed. I am running Windows XP (fully updated), Brazilian Portuguese version.

IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW

IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW ON WIFI JUST TURN OFF GLOBAL MODE!! DONT ASK ME WHY THIS WORKS BUT IT DOES. I TOOK MY FIRST PHONE BACK TO THE STORE BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS DEFECTIVE BUT THEN MY REPLACEMENT DID THE SAME THING. GLOBAL MODE IS WHAT THE PHONE IS SET TO USE OUT OF THE BOX. I SWITCHED IT TO LTE/CDMA AND NOW IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY. AWESOME

I'm glad you had luck with this. I have the same issue, and i've replaced the droid turbo 4 times. I've tried it on 4 or 5 different wifi networks and it doesn't give me any type of speed at all.

Oh boy! Acting kind of weird seems to be an understatement, aquaequus!
What type of troubleshooting were we able to do with you? I want to make sure that we can get some sort of resolution for this problem.
It is quite possible the battery door may get your phone in working order again. I'm not sure if the store has it in stock, but it is available in our warehouse for $14.99 which can be ordered via customer service.

I am still having issues with the TOC. I finally got several chapters and sections to show different pictures in the TOC, but have spent hours trying to figure out how to repeat it. This should be so simple. Is there an update? Please help us Apple.

I am still having issues with the TOC pictures. I got several chapter/section photos to show up, but can't seem to repeat this success. It is some mystery that happened during a time that I had practically given up. This should be such a simple thing. Drag and place a picture into the placeholder and it shows up in the TOC....right? Help, help help! want to get this thing done and it's taken two days of work just get some of the photos to show up. I am going to have to publish this ibook with no photos in several sections.....why can't this be simple? I have even had someone else spend hours trying to figure this out. This software is such a GREAT idea....come on...help with this little part of it.

I had the same problem myself. I got to the point where I couldn't replace the photo, of a new chapter, in the TOC. What I did was to duplicate an existing chapter that was working and was able to replace it's TOC's photo. I also found that if you try different areas of the photo you can sometimes get it to replace correctly. For example, instead of dragging the new photo to the middle of an existing photo, try dragging it to the right top corner.

TS1702 Is anyone else having issues with the most recent Facebook update? I updated it yesterday and now it won't open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but it still fails to open! Any suggestions?

Is anyone else having issues with the most recent Facebook app update? I updated it on my iPad 2 yesterday, now it will not open app at all. I have restarted iPad, uninstalled app and reinstalled, several times and still it will not work! Any suggestions? I have also closed the append still no results!

I just started having this yesterday. It's only happened twice, but it's annoying. My wife texted me that she was coming home last night, and it showed up immediately on my iPod Touch but not my iPhone. I opened my iPhone and it soon updated. Worked fine after that. Then just a moment ago today my wife texted me and the same thing happened. I heard my iMac and iPod Touch receive the message but it didn't display on my phone until I opened the phone and it showed up again a little bit thereafter. I suppose I'll send Apple some feedback on this issue.

Hi people, have on the phone till Apple, the reason i cant download OS X Lion is because BT are having issues with the large download & are working on a fix. Was told to phone back in 24 hours if problem continues

Hi people, have on the phone till Apple, the reason i cant download OS X Lion is because BT are having issues with the large download & are working on a fix. Was told to phone back in 24 hours if problem continues

Hi, just got off the phone from BT Business. It is the Business 2wire hub that has the issue. The girl from technical talked through a direct modem to Mac connection and my download took 20 minutes. If you are on Fibre broadband this is the only current fix or a new router if non fibre customer. Hope that helps.

Known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 Ghz

Are there any known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 that would result in speed issues and a grinding sound?

Vertically installed super slim DVD drives are not as reliable as a plain desktop burner. I've had one fail in two of three iMacs and have always had an external which I use most of the time. Other than that, the brand new iMacs do not have a Super Drive, so if that is what you are inquiring about, the point is moot. You need to buy an external anyway. As far as speed, I have never used a burner at high speed - unless you have a professional model, you can easily get burn errors when burning at a fast speed; sometimes consumer models do well burning with high speeds , other times not.
