he's saying that you should bring it in to the apple store for repair
and if you live far away from an apple store you should most likely  bring it in to where you bought it
because it's a hardware defect which no software fix would solve

    I have a pc that is one year old and the hard drive is crashing we use it only for quick books to run our small business I would like to buy a macmini and install the OS  from the pc to the apple product i will not use the pc after, can i use the OS off the pc or do I have to purchase another?

    I think you can get Windows 7 for around $99. Install the 64bit version as the 32bit version will not be able to use all your new computer's ram if you have more than about 3.5gb.
    Back up your quick books data now before the old hard drive dies. You can copy your data over to your new installation of Windows and quick books.
    By the way, there is quick books for Mac http://quickbooks.intuit.com/mac/?sc=BNR-000-COR-quickbooks&priorityCode=4902000 000&cid=ppc_google_QB-Intuit-Core-Brand-Mac_quick-books-for-mac_exact&site=&ad_i d=9347918288&raw_keyword=quick%20books%20for%20mac
    So you may not need to install Windows at all.

  • My ipad has frozen leaving candy crush, I tried to put it off using the on/off button, but now I have a black screen with no function. I can't read the serial number on the back as it is tiny.! any ideas?

    My Ipad mini has frozen leaving Candy crush. I tried to put it off using the on/off button, now the screen is black with no function. I can hear Siri if I push the control. It is charged. Any ideas? I can't read the very small printed serial number on the back so can't use the Apple help as they require the serial number.

    Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button for ~10 seconds, or until the apple logo appears.  This is called a reset.

  • Can I used the 'Random' shuffle button on CS6 with a standard DVD (blu-ray/web?)

    Hi guys,
    I'm just wondering if I can use the random shuffle button support on CS6 with a standard DVD?
    Thanks,
    Praga

    No... not on a DVD that you play in a player attached to a TV... from the user guide PDF
    Chapter PlayList support for Blu-ray and web DVDs
    Encore CS6 includes new options that provide more flexibility when you play chapter playlists:
    Sequential: Play chapter playlists sequentially.
    Random: Let the player randomly select a set of chapters to play.
    Shuffle: Let the player play all the chapters in any random order.
    Encore CS6 provides only the Sequential option for chapter playlists of DVD projects. Find these options in the Chapter PlayList panel. In addition,
    Encore CS6 supports Random and Shuffle options for chapter playlists in web DVDs.

    I have once instlled a kind of antivirus, but i have removed it from programs to trash.
    Gotcha, Bingo, Bazinga!
    Moving the antivirus to trash does not delete or disable some parts of the application.
    How to remove the remaining parts of the application depends on the application as the different AV-Systems place there parts at different places and use different preference files.
    At first check if the AV is still listed in the startup items (System Settings - Accounts - your account - startup items) and remove them from that list.

  • After I edited the SQL in a dataset, I can't use the query builder in any datasets that I create.

    Is there a way to reset BI Publisher Enterprise 11 so that I can use the query builder again instead of having to write out all of the SQL? I know that I can't use the query builder for the dataset that I edited the sql in but I would like to use the query builder for new datasets.
    Thanks,

    Hi J_Constantine,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPad is restarting and not responding sporadically. You have already attempted some great troubleshooting steps and I think you are on the right track. Holding the home button is one step that you take while placing your device in recovery mode to restore. This is the method that I would suggest to restore. For complete information on how to place your device into recovery mode, please reference the attached article. 
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Best regards,

  • How can I turn off my iphone without using the power off button

    I dropped my Iphone 5s in water and now the screen won't allow me to slide it over to power off. There's some water in the screen and it's not working correctly.

    Press and hold the "Sleep/Wake" button located on the top of the iPhone.
    Hold the "Home" button on the front of the iPhone while continuing to hold the Sleep/Wake button.
    Release the buttons as soon as the iPhone's screen turns black to turn it off. Do not continue to hold the buttons or the device will reset.
    Hope it can help you.
    Merry Christmas!

  • My status bar won't pull down and I can't use the search/menu buttons at the top of sony/stock apps

    Hi. I recently bought a Sony XPERIA SP and have been using it for a week. Yesterday I turned on my phone to download an app and the search/menu buttons at the top of the screen in the play store wouldn't work. I tried using the buttons that appear at the top in Walkman, Album, and Messaging, and they didn't work either. I then received a text and swiped down on my notification bar a few times but that wouldn't work either. Weirdly, the notification bar will only pull down in landscape mode. Help please?

    It's quite easy for me to answer this question, your phone is water damaged. I used to have Sony Xperia Z and which was water damaged too, I couldn't pull down the notification/illumination bar. The water entered through your speaker at the top which happened to me. It's quite notable that you'll have to spend like half of the price of your phone to fix this issue...but I have something easy round for you. You should place that phone in a polythene bag for 3 days minimum with full of dried rice and every path ways that water can enter should be opened up. 'Cause mostly water damaged phones are fixed by rice because rice s-u-cks every water out of your phone. Note: Now I'm SP user. Had to sell that old phone after fixing the issue.  Hit Kudo if I helped you.

  • My firefox browser window will not stay in full screen mode, it keeps reducing itself so I can't use the scroll down button on the side, so I have to constantly minimize and maximize to get to the scroll bar, How can I stop this?

    Like I said it happens every few minutes... It is annoying when you are on the internet for more than a few minutes because you constantly have to either minimize it or reduce the screen manually by hitting the button and then maximize it again to get the scroll bar to be in view to use it.

    Delete the localstore.rdf file at the following location:
    C:\Users\'''USERNAME'''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\'''PROFILE NAME'''
    I did this and it fixed it for several days, but it broke again eventually.

  • The on/off button on my iPhone 5S is difficult to use.  Sometimes I have to use a golf tee to get it to shut off.  Is this a common problem and can it be fixed?

    The on/off button on my iPhone 5S is difficult to use.  Sometimes I have to use a golf tee to get it to shut off.  Is this a common problem and can it be fixed?

    I'm not sure what difference it makes if its a common problem or not but as its a hardware problem it needs to fixed so take it into an Apple store or authorized iPhone service provider and ask them what can be done.

  • The on off button no longer works on my iPhone 4s. If I update my iOS will my phone turn itself off as part of the process? If it does I won't be able to turn it back on so I need to know but can't remember from last time!!!

    Will my iPhone 4s turn off as part of the process of updating my iOS? The on/off button on my iphone doesn't work so I can't allow my phone to run out of battery or turn off because I will not be able to turn it back on.

    Ok here is a nuance
    Try it - when your phone locks
    Insert the charging cord which is connected to a power source on the other end  - wait about a minute - and then take it out
    The screen will "wake up"
    That is always your way out
    I use assistive touch as well to lessen the wear and tear on my home button
    Sleep mode is what your phone does when you are asleep
