I bought  my MacBook Pro in 2010. This is the first Mac I have owned and recently it is having some difficulty loading we pages, often timing out. This Mac environment is entirely different for me and I am not sure where to begin troubleshooting and/ or clean-up. I have moderate computer skills and try not to download or access questionable material, however recently I visited the Ap Store and purchased a couple of different aps to use in record keeping and for making a flyer. I am not even sure how to remove these programs to see if it helps.
Any tips or tricks are appreciated.
Thank you!

Time to see about the PRAM battery.

iOS is the operating system for iPads, iPhones, and iPod touch.
Mac OS X is the operating system for Mac labelled computers.

  • HT3887 My iMac won't communicate with my mouse.  It keeps saying "wireless connection undiscoverable".  This is the first time I have set up my equipment after having a Data Transfer session yesterday. It's a brand new computer.  How can I fix this?

    How do I get my iMac to communicate with my mouse.  It keeps saying "wireless connection not discoverable". Thanks

    Hey Jeanette
    If you have a USB mouse handy, you can plug it in and use it to navigate to the Bluetooth settings in System Preferences to get the mouse to pair again. There are also troubleshooting steps in the article below for getting the mouse to pair as well.

  • HT1199 I bought my Macbook pro in 2010 and had Snow Leopard which I upgraded when Mountain Lion was available.  Now it keeps saying Mavarick is available.  Is that another update?  Or is that something else?

    I bought my Macbook pro in 2010 and had Snow Leopard which I upgraded when Mountain Lion was available.  Now it keeps saying Mavarick is available.  Is that another update?  Or is that something else? 

    Mavericks is an upgraded System in the same way that Mountain Lion was, the difference being that it's free. You can download the installer from the Mac App Store (the system requirements are the same as for Mountain Lion so you should be OK there). I've not got it: reports suggest that it is an improvement over Mountain Lion but it has some quirks that may or may not be an issue for you. It has its own forum, so you could look there for information.

  • My beloved MacBook Pro (mid 2010) has been the victim of water damage.

    My beloved MacBook Pro (mid 2010) has been the victim of some water damage.  They cleaned and dried it out at Apple.  Now it turns on, the fan runs, the Apple logo screen pops up, and then it shuts down immediately.  Is this repairable, aside from the $1200 flat rate repair, or am I SOL?  Any ideas where to start or troubleshoot?  Any diagnoses?

    It is better to spend money on a new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.
    Liquid damage is progressive.
    Best.

  • HT201303 I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad - error message says that they cannot be played on my iPad.  I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen.

    I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad (first generation).  Get the same error message that says they cannot be played on my iPad.  I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen after several successful movie rentals and transfers.

    When you have a query please post the feed URL rather than its contents. For the record, yours is at
    http://www.honywoodschool.com/podcast/44986
    I don't have an iPad to test this, so I can only refer you to Apple's Podcast Tech Specs page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#formattingvideo
    This says that the maximum video size for an iPad is 1024x768 - your latest episode is 1280x720.
    Slightly confusingly, it also says
    'iPad & Apple TV can play the following video formats:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format'
    which suggests that mp4 files are even more limited.
    Incidentally your feed gives this URL for the media file:
    http://www.honywoodschool.com/user/59/133934.mp4
    However when downloaded this produces a file called 'howtosetupappeid.mp4' so soe sort of redirect appears to be in place, and these can sometimes cause trouble. It's better to link directly to the file - it's possible that the iPad doesn't handle the redirect.
    That's all I can suggest: if it still doesn't cover the problem I can only refer you to the iPad forum where someone may be able to actually try your podcast and offer a comment.

    Hi Sara,
    First of all thank you very much for your prompt responses. Here are my comments to each of your suggestions below, and just to let you know I am using a Farm Admin account.  I
    was able to do this way after we upgraded from SP 2007 to SP 2010 as well.   I would like to mention I'm not a SP expert, just been given the responsibility due to another person handling it just left, so apologize with some of
    my novice questions below?
    1. When I change the Operators to "Contains" or "Not Contains" get generates this error below.
         Error generating in red towards top of the audience page..."One or more values typed on this page are not valid.  Check the text for the indicated fields."
         Error occurred where you enter your "Value"..."Could not resolve the user identity. Please re-enter the account name."
    2. We have a 3-server-tier topology (SPWeb, SPDB, and SPFarm).  Does the updates only apply to where the Central Admin is installed, which is the "SPFarm"?  I checked all
    3 servers, and NONE of the updates (KB2899494, KB2889845, and KB2883055) you'd mentioned are installed.
    3. I'm new to IISRET, I need to be extra cautious of what I run in production, is this safe to run with no problem?  What does it do?  And How do I run it?
    4. I'm also new to viewing the ULS log.  I'd just downloaded a viewer for it.  I'm assuming the only logs I need to be concern with viewing are within the SPAdmin (where Central
    Admin is installed)?  There's so many of them, what should I be looking for exactly?

    Hi Sandra,
    you'll need to edit the security settings to install programs 'Mac App Store and identified developers'
    Open the Systems Preference and go to Security & Privacy.  There will be a section in the 'General' tab for 'Allow apps downloaded from:"  The default selection is 'Mac App Store'.  Change this setting to 'Mac App Store and identified developers".

  • In Pages, I have white letters in a black background.  This is the first time I have used Pages.  Is this bizarre format the default?

    In Pages I have white letters in a black background.  I would like to have the normal black letters on a white background.  This is the first time I have used Pages.  Is this the default format?

    Should we guess what version of Pages? On either Mac or iGadget?

  • When I bought my MacBook Pro, I didn't buy the AppleCare PP with it. Now, is it possible for me to buy it separately to cover my MacBook?

    When I bought my MacBook Pro from Apple online store, I didn't buy the AppleCare Protection Plan with it. Now I'm in a different country from where I've bought my MacBook Pro. Is it possible for me to buy AppleCare Protection Plan separately to cover my MacBook?

    You should be able to do this if your MBP is still under the original warranty, i.e., under a year old, but it may vary depending on the region where you are. See: http://www.apple.com/legal/sales-support/applecare/appgeos.html

  • I need to print my song list from a cd I just burned, but when I do it comes out all printed on top of each other and un readable.  I have done this lots of times, this is the first time I have had this happen

    I have burned a lot of cd's and always print the jewel case song list when I am done, but tonight I tried to so that and it prints, but all jumbled together and unreadable.  I have not changed anything on my printer and all the test pages print great, so don't know how to fix the problem in Itunes.

    There is another discussion of this problem under "can't print cd jewel case inserts"--about 20 people on that page have the same problem.--I have a "band-aid" fix for anyone is in a hurry.  When you go to print, choose the option "large playlist" (I think it is the last option).  You can then print at least the songs that are on the playlist.  Then, you can print a mosaic copy to get the album art work.  Then you get out the scotch tape & tape them together!  This is UNACCEPTABLE but it will do in a pinch. Someone on the other page suggests we all write in "itunes" feedback & complain.

  • I have never used indesign to type in text on the spine of a book for submission as a book cover with the POD company Lightning Source. I would be so grateful if someone could tell me how to do this. This is the first time I have ever used a forum.

    Help! How do I type in text on the spine of a book cover template in indesign?

    1. Determine the spine width first. Note that the spine width is relative to the thickness of the paper used for printing. For example, your book is of 300 pages, the spine thickness varies relative to paper thickness (say, 60gsm paper or 70gsm paper, or thicker art paper varieties). Get in touch with the Printer to give you a bound dummy (blank pages) with as many number of pages as your book has. Measure the spine manually from it. When you are more experienced, you would be able to calculate the thickness just by knowing the paper thickness (multiply by number of pages of the book).
    2. Create a spread to represent the back cover (left) and front cover (right). Increase the width of either the left page or right page, to make it exactly the width of book + spine width. Use guides to separate the spine from the cover design area. Type the spine matter and rotate the frames to fit to the spine. Rotation of frames should be in such a way that when the book is kept on table with its front cover on top, the spine text matters should be erect (not be upside down). On completion the whole design should have the bleed area on all four sides, left page as back cover, spine in the middle with rotated text frames, right page as front cover.
    OR
    3. You can also make the spine a separate page. Create a page exactly of the width of spine. Go to Pages panel fly-out and uncheck "allow document pages to shuffle". Arrange the three pages, the back cover the spine and the front cover in that order side by side in the pages panel (you can drag-drop the pages to make the 3 pages spread). Go to layout to make finishing touches.
