What is the capacity of the flash drive?
You might also be able to reinstall Lion without a flash drive, by booting up the computer holding the Command + R keys, and choosing Reinstall OS X.

  • How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4 is in the following website? Please help me with any such tutorial to make my custom navigation bar/buttons.
    http://city.reallusion.com/join.html
    Thanks.

    While the Note 4 is a reasonably large device it still falls into the phone layout bucket. We need this layout to function on very small screens some as low as 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. These sorts of devices don't have the space for a full toolbar.

  • On my Yahoo emails and certain websites I get an error message. I download and install Flash Player and I still get the error. How can I fix this? It's very annoying because I have to use IE instead.

    When I use IE I don't have this problem. It's only with Firefox.

    Update your Flash Player which is way out of date, even your newer one won't work well with Firefox and many security updates have occurred since..
    * http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    The current Flash is Shockwave Flash 10.3.181.26 You have both Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19 and 10.0 r45 -- you will probably have to uninstall the 7.0 version through the control panel, do that first. Use the Adobe page to update as you are less likely to get crapware install suggestions from that page.
    Afterwards run a plug-in update type in about:plugins into location bar and hit enter at the top of the list is a link for for plugins test which you should check out<br>

    When installing updates, watch out for crapware installs, the checking and the updates are supplied by the plugin makers -- not by Mozilla.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.

    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

    You've been given some misinformation.
    RAM is the only thing in an iMac that IS user upgradeable/installable.
    You cannot void the extended AppleCare installing your own RAM modules.
    So, whoever told you this, has lied to you.
    If you actually opened the iMac's face and attempted to do some other internal work, then yes, you would've voided the 3-year warranty.
    But, opening the RAM access area and upgrading the RAM does NOT void the AppleCare warranty.
    What type or manufacture of RAM was it?
    Macs a very picky about the RAM that they need to use.
    Here is the correct RAM specs for your model iMac.
    Maximum Memory
    16 GB
    Memory Slots
    4 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
    Plus, whoever installed OS X 10.8 Mountain LIon on to this 2009 iMac should've done so.
    OS X 10.8 is a download only OS and is forever tied to some other Apple ID other than your own Apple ID.
    I do not use OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, but there should be a recovery partition that you can use to try and reinstall OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    Hopefully, someone with more experience with OS X 10.8 will be able to better help you.
    If you need a set of OS X restore discs, then order OS X  10.6.3 Snow Leopard from Apple here.
    It is only $20 U.S.D.

  • We have 2 session in workflow if 1st session got failed-still 2nd session has to execute and workflow should go to suspended mode.How can we achieve this?

    Thanks Veeru In this case workflow will go to Failed state but I want it in Suspended mode. Can you please help over here/

    HI Mounika, At session level you have option fail parent if task fails. Failing  Parent Workflow or Worklet #You can choose  to fail the  workflow or worklet if a task fails or does not run. The workflow or worklet that  contains the task instance is called the parent. A task might not run when the input condition for  the task evaluates to False.#To fail the parent workflow or  worklet if the task fails, double-click the task and select the Fail Parent If This Task  Fails option in the  General tab. When you select this option and a task fails, it does not  prevent the other tasks in the workflow or worklet from running. Instead, the  Integration Service marks the status of the workflow or worklet as failed. If you have a  session nested within multiple worklets, you must select the Fail Parent If This Task  Fails option for  each worklet instance to see the failure at the workflow level. #To fail the parent workflow or  worklet if the task does not run, double-click the task and select the Fail Parent If This Task  Does Not Run option in the General tab. When you choose this option, the  Integration Service fails the parent workflow if a task did not run.  This will help you. Regards,Veeru

  • I've got a 15" white macbook which I bought about 2 years ago. It froze the other day and wouldn't respond so I shut it down. When I turn it on now it comes up with a flashing file with a question mark on it. How can I fix it?

    I've got a 15" white macbook which I bought about 2 years ago. It froze the other day and wouldn't respond so I shut it down. When I turn it on now it comes up with a flashing file with a question mark on it. How can I fix it? I've tried a few things i've seen online but the futhest ive got is to put the start up disk in when you makes it go to a grey screen with an apple logo and the spinning wheel which then stops spinning. Can anybody help?

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Just press the Return key on your keyboard once.It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left handlist. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • Ntfs external hard drives and fat32 4gb flash drive not able to unmount

    Hi everyone,
         I have a bit of a headache here. I have two external hard drives, one is 1TB and the other is 500GB, both are NTFS format. I am using them on my macbook pro at this point because my windows 7 desktop appears to have crashed (still looking into the problem, just haven't had the time). I also have a 4GB flash drive that is fat32 format from that same windows desktop but I only use it for loading music on and putting it in the usb port of my stereo in my car. My problem at this point is that I am no longer able to unmount any of these by using disk utility. I was also having problems with both my external drives being read only until I came across Paragon ntfs for mac. That still messes up every now and then somehow and my drives go back to read only until I disable it and reboot, re-enable it and reboot again. Is there something that I am missing? I have been scouring the internet for last day or so trying anything and everthing to be able to get my ability to unmount disks back and nothing seems to work... Can anyone help?

    Hi,

    Yes, generally speaking, if an external drive or flash drive can be recognized by Windows XP, it should work in Windows Server 2003. However, there is no guarantee.
    If possible, I recommend that you plug the “unrecognized” drive to some other Windows Server 2003 computers to test whether it works. If the issue continues, I suggest that you contact the vendor or the drive for more details.
    By the way, what’s the version of Windows Server 2003 you used? Please update it to the latest service pack to check whether they works.
    Best Regards,
    Vincent Hu

  • For a while now my computer has been saying " Start up disk is nearly full", however I don't have a lot of stuff saved on the computer I moved a lot to a flash drive, and all the other stuff are songs and recently saved essays for school. Help.

    For a while now my computer has been saying " Start up disk is nearly full", however I don't have a lot of stuff saved on the computer I moved a lot to a flash drive, and all the other stuff are songs and recently saved essays for school. I have and frequently empty my trash can. I have researched this before and i see a lot of things that say get a external hard drive, but before I go and purchase one I want to make sure there is no other, simpler way, to solve this problem. Help Please.

    You need an external drive so you can free up disk space. Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you have a minimum of 15% free disk space.

  • HT1751 I have my own ITunes on my laptop. How do I take an ITunes Library from another computer, put it on a flash drive and put that library on multiple other computers?

    I will be creating a new ITunes on each computer. Do I then just plug in the flash drive and copy it to the new library? Is this the same process as I created new playlists?

  • HT5172 Glad to have USB capability on my new iMac.  Been in Mac world all of 2 days now.  Question - I downloaded photos from a Centron flash drive and am wondering if flash drives have to be ejected the same as on a PC?  Can't find how to do it.  Thanks.

    Been in the iMac world now all of 2 days.  I'm glad to have USB capability.  I downloaded photos from a Centron flash drive and now need to remove the flash drive.  Do you eject flash drives on iMacs as we did on PC's?  Can't find an answer in the support area.  Thanks...

    Yes. All external drives regardless of how they are connected must be ejected before they can be unplugged.

  • I have Time Machine that I used to back up my old computer. It was running snow leopard. My MacBook died, so I got a new one which is running Lion.  how can I restore the data from the time capsule to my new Mac?

    I have Time Machine that I used to back up my old computer. It was running snow leopard. My MacBook died, so I got a new one which is running Lion.  how can I restore the data from the time capsule to my new Mac?

    In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
    iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
    She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
    Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
    I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
    She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

  • I've gotten a kernel panic 4 times in a row while trying to reinstall lion osx from a flash drive to a reformatted hard drive.  How is this possible when there's "nothing" on my computer?

    My SSD failed and I was instructed to reformat my hard drive and restore my files.  I erase my hard drive using Disk Utility and reinstalled Lion from a flash drive. While Lion is installing, I get a kernel panic.  That's happened now four times in a row and I'm befuddled because I don't have anything on my computer to conflict right?  Please help.

      Do you think it's ram related?
    No way to tell unless you test it.  Like I said kernel panics are usually hardware related.  Since your Macbook Pro is from the "2009" era, run the Hardware Test disc which you should already have - Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test 
    Apple Store diagnostic testings are FREE.  It's the repairs you are responsible for if out of warranty.
