I can not get a mac book 2010 to boot to Target mode.

I have a 2010 mac book i'm trying to zero out. But it will not boot to target mode connected t my mac book pro via fire wire 800 ( im using a thunder bolt>firewire 800 adapter)

What if you disconnect the Firewire cable. Will it boot into Target Disk Mode then?

  • I can not get my mac book air off mute

    I can not get my mac book air off mute and it is grayed out in the "system Preferance" sound section page.

    OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3
    Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Make sure Mute is not enabled.
    2. Remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    3. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup.app
        Audio Devices window
        Side Bar
        Click the Built-in Output.
        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so uncheck it.
        Option click the speaker icon, if present and select Internal Speakers.
    6. Install Combo Update ML 10.8.3

    Best.

  • How can i get my mac book pro to recognize a JVC camcorder?

    How can I get my mac book pro to recognize a JVC camcorder using a Sony CAMERA USB cord??

    Gotta say thank you — again.  Sorry the posts were spread out over more than one location.    I'll check and see if Third Party Software is considered a "peripheral", maybe that would have been a better single thread choice?
    Definitely news we can use and the reference link is appreciated.
    OT ~ We keep becoming more and more aware of how easy it is to lose one's bearings when it comes to keeping up with info tech.  My husband and I are both official members of the geezer set and have been out of the work force for some years.  You really do pick up so much just by being in the environment where people are using things to get work done.  A couple of old MP3 players, PPC G5, and a vintage Inspiron 3800 that someone didn't want any more is about it.  No cell phone, no iPod, no iPad, no home wireless network, no streaming media.  Fixed income.  So we do with what we can as long as we can.  If we could get by without that Intel processor, we'd probably make do with what we've got.  On the other hand, we've really wanted a notebook for a very long time and have to admit that needing to upgrade to accomodate my husband's project is pretty much just the "reason" we need.  I really mean it when I say that we are beyond appreciative that users take the time to share info and patiently educate those of us who fall into the "slow tech" category.

    Yes. You need 2011 or later in order to mirror as it requires the newer processor. The alternative is airparrot, which does it via software.

  • Can I get my mac book pro to connect via usb to epson ex5200

    can I get my mac book pro to connect via usb to epson ex5200?

    Maybe, but if the Mac has Thunderbolt ports, it will probably give you much better results with a TB to HDMI cable such as this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CADYDO
    No software, truly a plug and play proposition.

    Everything, Numbers and Pages et al, always default back to US English. To cap it all we sell luminaires (yes this is a word used in our world of lighting design everyday) Mac and Microsoft always default - my docs have more words underlined in red that not. I once found a permanent solution for Microsoft that removed US english - and then the laptop died. Can anyone rid me of this irritation.

    GOT IT FIXED!  WOW!
    I did better than filing a bug report.  I went to Apple support, chose chat support.  When it wanted $15 or was it $19 I filed an exemption which was a choice on the page, based on the fact that I recently upgraded to Yosemite.
    Got the chat fellow and here we go!!!!  ;-)  First off he sent me this app so he could see my screen.  Then he had me do a few things  like move the system configuration folder to the desktop and repair permissions.  Then he had me reset the SMC and Pram.  Nothing helped, all the ghost computers still showed in the finder.
    As a last resort he had me reset my Apple Airport Extreme.  Wala!  Ghost Computers GONE!  He said it was a combination of stuff but mainly it was the airport extreme when I installed Yosemite.  Something to do with my network.  We'll see if it holds or if the problem comes back but as of now there's no more ghost computers in the sharing part of the finder.
    Thanks to all who offered suggestions.  I hope maybe this helps someone else.

  • How can i get my Mac book pro if i lost it?

    Me robaron mi Mac book pro y quiero saber si hay manera de recuperarla por rastreo

    Only if you have installed appropriate software prior to the theft do you have a hope of tracking your MBP.  If the thief is smart, he will have erased the HDD preventing such tracking.
    Report it to the police and hope for the best.
    Ciao.
