  • Airplay mirror imaging icon will not show up on my macbook pro even though i downloaded mountain lion. How do i get airplay icon to appear on my macbook pro?

    i have a macbook pro (almost positive that its a 2010 version) and i got mountain lion. The BIGGEST AND MAIN REASON i bought mountain lion was so that i can do airplay, allowing me to mirror image what is on my mac to my Apple TV. my whole computer is updated as far as the displays and newer features but the small airplay icon will not show up on the top of my screen. therefore, not allowing me to mirror image what is on my mac to my tv... it is connected to the same wifi as my apple tv. idk what to do. could it be because my macbook pro is a 2010? desprately looking for help...please help me with this issue
    thank you

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Read > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 AirPlay Mirroring requires an Early 2011 or newer MacBook Pro, so your MacBook Pro isn't supported.
    To mirror your MacBook Pro's display onto the Apple TV, you can use an application like Beamer or AirParrot even if AirPlay Mirroring isn't compatible

    Why would they?
    Do you have Automatic downloads enabled? Note this only works for items purchased after it is enabled.

  • HT1414 my ipad mini will not charge from wall socket and it will not show itself on i tunes via my pc... i have also substituted my power charger from my i-phone to no avail.

    my daughter's i-pad mini will not charge up from the wall socket and it will not show itself on i-tunes via my pc... i substituted the power charger from my i-phone to no avail with the wall socket... seems like i read that the earlier i-pads have some problems with the lightning socket but can not remember exactly...there is no apple retail shop in the small city where i live but would travel to one if the fix is relatively quick or easy...otherwise, what can i do for diagnosis and repair?

    Most likely your cable is bad and you need to get a replacement.

  • When I place a clip in the timeline and try to watch it, the viewer says "Unrendered" and it will not show the clip

    When I place a clip in the timeline and try to watch it, the viewer says "Unrendered" and it will not show the clip. What do I need to do to fix this?

    Option 1: Render the clip in FCE then watch it.
    Option 2 (preferred): Convert the clip so it will match your Sequence settings in FCE prior to importing the clip into your project.  It will not need rendering if converted properly.

  • edited by host HARD DRIVE ICON WILL NOT OPEN ON DESKTOP WHEN CLICK

    my HD will not open on desktop when i click on it. For 4 years i had no problem on this every.
    why does this happen now?
    what is wrong with the icon?
    could my HD start becoming bad?
    what are some signs that i should be "aware of" is this one?

    You might try booting from DVD or another drive and running Disk Utility and Disk Warrior.
    Or Single Users Mode (command s on startup) and follow on-screen instruction command
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    to repair your boot drive
    ... or a Safe Boot with shift key held down.
    Corrupt prefs, directory, could be a number of small or major things.
    But, in any case, make sure you have backups, and a bootable backup clone, maybe an emergency boot drive as well (install OS X on another drive if you don't have one now).

  • My ipod 5 will not charge. It died and now will not charge to turn back on. What should I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Old Mac Pro with 7.0 iPhoto transferred selected photo albums to my iPad. New iMac with iPhoto 11.0 will not transfer photo albums to my iPad. Why not?

    I just purchased the new iMac with the latest iPhoto. Transferred my iPhoto library from my old Mac Pro. Upgraded iPhoto app and then tried to transfer photo albums to my iPad. New iPhoto will not allow transfer of selected albums, while old iPhoto did allow me to sync my selected albums to my iPad. Am I doing something wrong?

    I do not have Last 12 Months selected. I also do not have Events or Faces or any of those newer designations selected. I have literally thousands of photographs in iPhoto, which is why I keep the select, special few hundred or so I want on my iPhone in very specific albums. These are the albums I select to sync. However, not all of the photos in these albums are uploading to my iPhone. They were on my iPhone and synced perfectly fine until the switch to the new laptop this weekend. All files were migrated to the new laptop, and all files are there and viewable on iPhoto. Something is causing some of the photos not to sync. That is what I need assistance with....

  • I have restored my iMac from backup and it will not boot

    I restored my iMac from an external drive using time machine and when it restarts, it sit with the grey screen and petals rotating.
    The restore was used as I had tried to share be two iTunes libararies and manged to loose the content links within iTunes, so thought the restore would take me back, pre user error.
    I have tried. 3 different restore points and checked the disk, using disk utility, that was ok. Repaired the permissions ok  on the disk and still the machine will not reboot.
    It goes through the restore ok then just sits on the grey screen after reboot.
    Any ideas or have I really screwed it up?

    Reinstalled OSX lion overnight and recovered ok, most of the files were intact.
    Would not let me use the migration tool from tm as it would nor show the bak up drive, even though it is backing up to it.  Still miffed why the restore would not work, as the mac came with lion installed from new and I had backed up from day 1.
    I do not have much faith in the tm backup.  I just hope that if there is a next time, that I can retrieve my information.
    I bought a mac thinking I would not be having theses issues, I hope this is nt a sign of things to come!
    Thanks for your support and confirming I was doing the right things to try and recover my situation.

  • My iphone won't turn on and i have tried everything possible but right now, I cannot retrieve the data from it and it will not connect to my computer whatsoever, so is there a way to retrieve my pictures and data?

    i have been frustrated all day and been going around asking Apple experts about this and it has to my decision to get a new phone since it's out of warranty but I want the images I have on the broken iPhone. Is there any possible way to retrieve it.
    Btw, it is not photostreamed

    Are you sure that the battery is not empty: when the battery is VERY empty (that is when it was on and a long time off the charger) it may take an hour or even more to start charging with the charger connected. When you have an iPad charger you can also use that one, and it charges a bit faster.

  • My pc will not let me install the newer itunes, how can I update my phone without losing all my purchases (i'm thinking i'll have to delete itunes and re-install right?)

    I've had my Iphone4 since 2011 but the current operating system is still 4.2.1. I'd gone quite a while between buying things on itunes directly to my phone and synching it to my pc. When I eventually synched it, it told me that I needed to upgrade to a newer version of Itunes. When I try and click on it to get new version my pc will not do anything. The only thing I can think of doing is to uninstall the old itunes and re-install the current one but i'm guessing i will lose all my purchases. Is this the only way to go about this, any help would be gratefully appreciated - thanks mark (chunky74)

    uninstalling iTunes and it's additional components does absolutely nothing to the music/apps/etc that you have downloaded or purchased.
    before uninstalling iTunes, try going to the itunes website, download the install file there and manually install it.
    If you do have to uninstall iTunes, please make sure you're following this article to make sure that you're uninstalling all of the components correctly and in the right order. Uninstalling iTunes, but not doing it the 'right' way is essentially a waste of time

  • Raw and jpeg will not show when imported from camera

    I am doing a OCA degree in digital photography using aperture 3 . I have been asked to take Raw and J pag , open up in the program I use. And not the differance and the make changes.
    I have 1d MK III and 7 d     I cannot get both file types to show side by side..   Some one tell me how to do this please. I must have clicked , ticked something , that I cannot find to put right again.

    As always, start by copying the images on to a folder on the hard drive and then backing up the folder. Never import directly from camera or card into Aperture or any other images app.
    Then since this is an exercise not a batch workflow, simply rename the RAW and JPEG versions of one image and separately import each renamed version into Aperture. The two should each be Masters, one from the JPEG original and one from the RAW original.
    Note the JPEG may initially "look" better on the (relatively low resolution) display due to in-camera presets like sharpening, etc. not present in the RAW file. However the RAW file contains much more image data, is much more editable and is capable of making superior (relatively very high resolution) hard copy prints.

  • I have two Apple ID's associated with my e-mail and Facetime will not verify the one I use.  How can I eliminate the other ID?

    I am running to into a problem using Facetime as I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.  Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.  What can I do???

    Some things are mixed up here, seemingly...
    I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.
    An Apple ID is a valid email address, apparently. How can those be "attached to your email"... what email?
    Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.
    This doesn't make sense. You can register multiple, even non-Apple-ID, email addresses and their aliases with FaceTime.
    So, maybe you can explain your problem better - what you want and the steps you've taken and what you have so far. If something doesn't work, please tell the exact error message, too.

  • Firefox's option bar for saving username and passwords will not show, I have it set to remember passwords for sites. Can sites be added manually?

    I was using Norton to remember my user names and passwords, however I do not use Norton any longer. Firefox does not give me the option of saving passwords even though I have it set to remember them.
    There are no sites in the exceptions list. How can I reset Firefox so the option bar shows?
