left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
/usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes. -
I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I can’t get a reset all of my credentials don’t work. Now all my apps won’t work. it looks like they load for half a second then disappear. What can I do?
- Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
- For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
- Instead, try restoring from backup. -
I updated to Lion OS10.7.5 and I have duplicate contacts that will not merge. The duplicates were created when I synced my phone (which I have done a hundred times!) How do I fix this?
Try the 10.7.5 supplemental update.

I have a header that will not suppress conditionally
I have a header that will not suppress conditionally. The report consist of 2 reports a main report and a subreport. The main report will not show context if the subreport has information for that user. I got that to work but the main reports header is still appearing. I used the suppress if blank with a formula with out success. How can I do this?
I have done this before to isolate. Take the formula you are using for suppresion, copy it, create a new formula and paste into it.
something like if = condition then true else false
Now unsupress everything in the report and add the formula to all your sections, groups, etc.
You should then be able to see True, or false, in each of your sections, by reviewing this, you can verify that your conditional formula is actually doing what you think it should be. If it is not, you may want to reverse the logic in the formula, or adjust it untill it meets your criteria.
You can also refer to the new formula to supress a section, or group.
Supression occurs when the formula, or condition returns a true. -
I have an iPad that will not connect to the wifi at our house. My sister also has an iPad and it connects automatically. Mine is the only one that will not. I can't figure how to get it to work. I have taken my iPad other places with wifi and it connects right away. I know that some wifi systems have a limit on how many things can connect to them but I have even gone so far as turn off the wifi on every device that we have that connects to the wifi and it still doesn't work. I don't know what to do or how to get it to work?
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Have a MF8580Cdw that will not copy
Have a MF8580Cdw that will not copy. The little lights on the B&W and color start buttons are no longer lit up either.
Sounds as if it's a hardware issue - if I were you, I'd take the unit into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run diagnostics on the machine. I'm fairly certain that it's a hardware problem.

I have an iPad that will not allow me to accept iCloud terms and conditions. It just says server not available. But on an annoyingly regular basis a pop up asks me to accept term and cond, I go to iCloud and try to but that is when it tells me it cannot connect to the server. Frustrating as I cannot get rid of the pop ups.
Thanks champion! Apple support is useless! Way too difficult to get anywhere with their "support"

You can try recovery mode to see if you can revive the iPad.

Have you left the iPad charging for a couple of hours or so to be sure? -

Regular or smart?
You may need to remove any references to Podcasts, e.g. use "Playlist is Music" instead of "Podcast is false".
