  • I have a mac book pro.  It is 3 years old.  when I push the button to turn on the computer, it does not start.  The little light comes on, but the computer does not start up

    I have a macbook pro.  It is three years old.  It has been working perfectly fine.  However, as of yesterday, whenever I push the "on" button, the computer does not turn on.  The little light comes on indicating that the computer has started, but there is nothing on the computer screen, and it does not make the usually noise that it makes when it cycles on. 
    Any suggestions?

    Check the battery status to make sure it has a full charge (and that the charger is working). Then make sure the screen backlight is turned up.
    If the backlight is up then, try forcing the machine to shutdown (hold the power button for 5 - 10 seconds).  Then restart the computer(listen for the start up chime).
    If the computer does start up and you still cannot see anything reset the PRAM by forcing the machine to shut down (hold power button as before), then press the power button and start holding the key combo
    <Command>+<Option>+p+r
    until you hear the start up chime two or three times, then release the keys and allow to boot

  • Cannot download OSX Maverick? My current system is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and even when logged into the app store I'm getting the message that I can not download at this time. Try Later?

    Are you connected via wifi? If so, and it is an option, try connecting using a ethernet cable. It sometimes seems to help as it can give a more reliable connection for the 5.3gb download.
    If you do manage to download it you may want to make a copy of the installer file - which gets downloaded to the Applications folder - before running it as it self-deletes on successful installation. It may save you another monster download in the future.

  • My Windows7 PC just crashed.  I have the files backed up online with Carbonite.  I want to buy a Mac I book.  Carbonite says it cannot download pc files to a Mac.  Is there a solution?

    Brilliant, that clears things up - there is a single
    audio in that is next to the PC in so I guess I need
    one of the single cables you have mentioned,
    hopefully the Apple Store can point me in the right
    direction when I go in to buy my Mini.
    If the TV has a single minijack-type audio input, then the cable you need is a very standard one that can be found almost anywhere that cables for audio/home theatre systems are sold. In the old days it would be easy to point you towards the nearest Tandy, but as I understand it they're now gone. However, even supermarkets such as Tesco are likely to have something this basic!
    No doubt Apple will release an Intel Core 2 Duo
    version the day after I pick it up.
    There's no doubt that at some point Apple will revise the range and make new mini's faster or more powerful - and it may be that it happens next week at the Macworld Expo. I'd bet there are a few people holding on for a few days to see if new minis are announced there, and you might want to do the same if it's of concern, but the existing models are plenty powerful, and more than enough for most user's needs.
    Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
    You are most welcome - and please come back and post again if you have any further questions or any problems once you've got your system!

    What happens when you try? Is this a download or the boxed version? What version of OS X?

  • I have bought a luminex camera but cannot download my pics onto my mac as I don't have windows. Can I download windows on my mac.

    I have bought a luminex camera but cannot download my pics onto my mac as I don't have windows. Can I download windows on my mac.

    (1) You should not need to use Windows on your Mac unless you want to do so.
    I'm unsure what a "luminex camera" is, but you can probably use your Mac's iPhoto app with it.
    Launching iPhoto and search iPhoto > Help for "import" (without the quote marks.)
    If you're still having trouble, this article may give you some ideas:
    iPhoto '11: Import photos or video from a digital camera
    (2) You can only "download Windows"  if you have bought it from a download source.
    Once you have an usable (downloaded or disk-based) Windows installation, Apple's
    Windows on a Mac Support page explains using Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp.
    VMWare, Virtual Box, or Parallels Windows are other alternatives.  This article may be of interest:

    I bought a book and cannot downloaded it to my Sony E-book, can anybody help????

    Read the manual for the Sony E-book... does it actually support ebooks from iTunes?
    If you purchased an iBook, it will only work on an iOS device.
    iTunes only syncs with iOS devices.

    Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

  • My daughter reset her Mac book Pro to the factory settings by her doing this did we loose all the pictures and stuff that was on the computer before

    My daughter reset her Mac book Pro to the factory settings by her doing this did we loose all the pictures and stuff that was on the computer before

    If by resetting to factory settings you mean she erased the drive and reinstalled the operating system, OS X, then yes all data thatwas on it is gone. That is why apple included time machine so you can make backups of your data.

  • Would you please help  me in cleaning my two years old mac book pro

    my computer is two years old. i vist many sites and as a result it has
    gradually become very slow.is there any advice please?

    You are posting in the developer forum. This is a quiet corner of the forums where few people will see your post. If you give us some details about your setup, we can get your post moved to a more appropriate forum.
    A good way to do that eould be to try a little program I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.
    The output from EtreCheck will say what forum your post need to go into and, perhaps, what your problem is.
