My dealer has tried and failed (twice) to correct this and I have tried deleting the two items in the Itunes folder but no luck!

were you able to get help on this?  I need help on error 5002 as well.  thank you

    Hold down the alt key immediately after power-up, select which OS you want to boot, holding ctrl when you select an OS makes it the default.

    Thanks for your response.
    I had tried COMMAND+ALT+R which led me to directly to INTERNET RECOVERY via wifi. After 1 hour or so it dropped me at the same point.
    I've tried MIGRANT ASSISTANCE as well, it kept on LOOKING FOR OTHER COMPUTERS even though I clicked on TIME MACHINE BACK UP USING EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE
    so what to do now?
    P.S. Guys at MacStore were so careless to even listen to me when I asked them about retrieving back up :(
    Please help

  • Please a simple problem but I don't know how to solve it. After installing 16 gb of ram all is good but when I turn on the computer it is a window signaling that all is correct. How is possible to delete once and for all that window? Thank you

    Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
    Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

  • HT1436 I have two hard drives on my G5(2004). How do I get to choose which hard drive is the start up disk when I turn on the computer? Is it the shift key I hold down?

    I have two hard drives on my G5(2004). How do I get to choose which hard drive is the start up disk when I turn on the computer? Is it the shift key I hold down?

    depending on which model of G5 and  OS installed will depend on whether a key command will work
    alt   at start up may  work, if it does not, use the start up disc setting in;  
    apple menu > system preferences > system  > start up disc
    of course, the second drive must have a compatible OS installed for it to be able to boot.

  • Can i delete my photos and videos from my mac if they have been exported to an external hard drive will they still be saved if I delete them off the computer but are backed on time machine? Can u explain time machine plz?

    I am doing this because I have run out of space on my internal hard drive as I have over 100 GB of memory in pics.
    I think I am misunderstanding how time machine works/how it backs things up.  Can someone please explain it to me? Thanks and I appreciate it! :)

    Rick,
    For everything you should know about Time Machine, see http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html.
    If your photos were on your internal drive then, yes, they are likely to have been backed up by Time Machine.
    However, if Time Machine starts running out of space, it will delete old back ups and thus your photos aren't really 'safe' just on a Time Machine back up. What you really need to do is either:
    Buy another external hard drive for storing your photos and other files, or;
    Back up your photos to DVD's: there are a number of cataloging apps that you can use to catalog your files or, if you have named them something specific, use something like DiskTracker.
    Either way, don't rely on your Time Machine back-up to store your photos.
    Good luck - call back if you need more information,
    Clinton

  • Transferring some files from old hard drive to new mac book pro: How do I do this?  I bought a SATA Wire, and can't figure out how to get my files

    Hi there, my old mac book recently died and I opted to buy a new macbook pro, instead of pouring lots of money into the old computer.  I was able to get my hard drive out, and I bought a 2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit.  I have also installed superduper!....but I can't really figure out how to get everything to work.  I just want to be able to take some of my files from my hard drive, not everything...
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I don't know what a "2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit" is but if you have a internal drive you need to connect all you needed was a $20 IDE/SATA to USB adapter
    You don't need Superduper, that's software designed to clone a entire Mac's boot drive to a external drive for bootable backup purposes using the same machine/make/model.
    Since the new Mac is different than the old one you can't clone (well you could but it will break the machine) the old drive to the new one.
    However you can use the adapter above and software Apple provides in the Utilities folder on the NEW MAC, called Migration Assistant to transfer your User to the new machine.
    However this might not be the best course of action as it can transfer unwanted data and cause problems in the Library, old programs that won't run on 10.7, etc.
    You can simply create the same named user on the machine (System Preferences > Accounts) log into it and then connect the external drive with the adapter and copy the contents of your users folders over and place into the same.
    It's always good to have another Admin level user account on the machine in case the primary one has a User based issue and you need to log into the other and grab files. So if either manually or via using Migration Assistant you wind up with two user accounts on the machine, it's really not that big of a deal.

  • I can not get my imovie clips transferred to my external hard drive. I did it before but I don't remember how I did it. I tried dragging it and I tried moving it under the share tab too. Help!

    I have a Mac 10.8.2 and iMovie 08. I have uploaded movie's from my video camera onto iMovie, and now I cannot move them to my external hard drive. I was able to do this before, but I don't remember how I did it. I tried to drag it and I tried moving it by using the share tab.
    Any information on how I can go about transferring from iMovie to my external hard drive would be helpful.
                                                                     AND
    Any information on how I can transfer movies and pictures from my camera directly to my external hard drive would be helpful as well.
    Thank You!

    I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
    You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots.  Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
    See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
    You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.  
    The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library.  Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

  • Beachball and hanging after putting old hard drive into new MacBook Pro

    Hi there,
    I really hope to find some help here.
    The situation:
    I had a MacBook Pro Early 2008 running Lion (10.7.5) until it died about a week ago (mainboard broken).
    In this old Macbook Pro I had two hard drives: 128GB SSD and 1TB SATA 5400.
    I bought a second hand MacBook Pro Late 2011 on ebay and upgraded the Ram to 16 GB.
    Then I put the two hard drives in the new MacBook Pro Late 2011.
    The Macbook is super fast and very responsive but every couple of minutes it is hanging for a few seconds or I get a beachball randomly.
    This can happen in Finder, Google Chrome, Adobe Dreamweaver, basically anytime using any software.
    I tried to create a new account and see if the problem persists. And yes, it does.
    I tested the hard drives (disk utility) and the Ram (memtest/terminal) and all is ok with this.
    The Macbook Pro Late 2011 comes with a 256 GB SSD and an empty slot for the second hard drive. The Macbook seems to function normal when using the 256GB SSD with Lion installed.
    Unfortunately my external backup hard drive is not working anymore so I can't restore from there.
    What do you recommend? Would it make sense to make a backup now, take out the 128GB and put in the 256 GB hard drive?
    Please advice!
    Thanks for any kind of help in advance!
    Chris

    I know people that have been doing things for longer than 10 years and they know jack. Formatting the HD is not really good "advice" in this situation.
    I'm not cocksure - you just think I am because I'm disagreeing with you opinion, which you believe to be sacred (because you've been commenting for 10 years?).
    So I thank you sir for your opinion but I certainly do not need your luck.
    Later.

  • How do i access files from my old hard drive on my mac book pro with a new hard drive?

    I recently got more RAM as well as a new and bigger hard drive installed on my 2008 MacBook Pro. I backed up the files on an external hard drive, and now I want to be able to access those files (ie: my passwords from my old computer hard drive "keychain access") <= I can't remember them for the lyfe of me! I used "time machine" to transfer the information, but now I want to know how to access those files or import them...Please help! I don't want to have to pay $20 to talk to apple support

  • After automatically updating when I turned on the computer, Firefox erased all my History from the end of September until the update yesterday; how can I get back all the searches in my Show All History?

    When I opened Firefox and it automatically updated yesterday, all my search history from then back to the end of September was wiped clean from the "Show All History." I very much need that search history, which is essential for my research. I didn't bookmark it because I knew it would always be there. But it's not. Please help.

    Firefox tarballs from Mozilla Org use prefs within Firefox for updates. The "toggle" for not automatically updating - '''app.update.enabled''' and where to look for updates - '''app.update.url'''. The first needs to be '''''false''''' and the second could be a '''''null''''' string, do an update can't be found.
    ''I use both prefs to keep Firefox from updating by itself. I install each new version of Firefox as it is released, and keep the older versions around for reference purposes. Those prefs are the same since Firefox 1.5 came out.''
    The versions of Firefox that are part of an operating system installation usually are that OS's own build of Firefox, and don't use the same update setup as Mozilla uses, in most cases. I am not familiar with Cent OS, but Ubuntu and Debian look for Firefox updates and from their own program repository servers outside of Firefox - as with the tarballs from Mozilla.

  • Groovorio has taken place of Firefox; I have tried "uninstall;" now Groovorio is not on the program list; how do I get Firefox back and kill Groovorio? program

    Groovorio penetrated my computer, has burrowed in. When I try to call Firefox, Groovorio appears instead.
    I tried the Uninstall command in Control Panel, Programs and Features. Now, the name Groovorio has disappeared from the list of programs, but it continues to replace FIrefox.
    I wish to get rid of Groovorio.com and to get my Firefox setup back to where it was before Sept. 25.
    This may be relevant: I first noticed Groovorio soon after I installed "iLivid", which was presented as necessary to optimize communications with a college course website.
    Mozilla has presented correctly educated guesses about my current browser and operating system.
    Mozilla has presented me a list of installed plugins. I do not know whether Mozilla wants me to verif that list; I have been unable to do so.

    Step one;
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
