I have a whitemacbook 13-inch 2010 model.  The hard drive crashed right before my final was due. It was not Photoshop, although 2 GB was not near enough to run it, but a corrupted file on the hard drive. should i get a new hard drive, or a new computer?

I have a limited budget.  should I just replace the hard drive and get more RAM, and keep it going for
2-3 years?  (this was a suggestion from the tech guy at school) or go ahead and buy a mac mini to get me through school?  Or splurge and get a new iMac?  I dont want to invest too much too soon due to the law of obsoletion, and of course my limited finances.

Well as I suspected I love OWC company I pulled out the mac hard drive , they offered me a Macdrive  free trial program to check your drive on PC Windows and yesSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS it all there nothing lost
woohooooo , thank you but nothing is dead, when you have faith , this was a prayer answered big time I wanted a pro so much and I get to use my 500  plust 250 plus 120 GB drives all of them
ladies and gentlemen and I get to keep the 2 GB in from my macbook 13 inch and sell all the parts
yipeee
thanks for the support, now the case is Solved. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        Hello!
    No Play Store, sounds like no fun! Let's get this fixed! I would recommend trying the store in safe mode first. If that doesn't work a hard reset would be the next step. Here are the steps for both:

    The file was corrupted somewhere along the way (assuming it was still readable on the Macintosh).

  • I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option.

    # Question
    I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one of 2 things occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option. The other is if the proper dialog box appears, I agree and the a different box appears and there is foxfire with a red circle with a diagonal line across is appears.

    I find the easiest way to install Adobe Flash is to use the manual installers. You just need to download the installer to your computer, then run it to install Flash. For more details see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
    That link states you should uninstall earlier versions, as you don't have the version of Flash used by Firefox you can skip that step.

  • Does not start, but when I shut down the computer then the browser shows up right before sytem shuts down.

    I am having problems with Firefox. When I click on the shortcut, or the .exe file nothing happens. I check task manager to see if it is running and it does not show Firefox is running.
    But when I shut down the computer then the browser shows up right before the computer shuts down. I have tried starting the browser in safe mode and the same thing happens. I cannot give any troubleshooting info because the browser is not visible for me to click on help or any other button.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
    #Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
    '''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
    * '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    * '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
    #Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
    #In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
    #Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
    #* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
    #* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
    #Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    #Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    #Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • My ipad identifies my charging cable as not recognized, although it was bought at the same store, at the same time as the ipad. It charged for awhile, but now won't turn on or even charge. Any ideas?

    My ipad identifies my charging cable as not recognized, although it was bought at the same store, at the same time as the ipad. It charged for awhile, but now the ipad won't turn on or even charge. I still have all the packaging and receipt as proof. Any ideas why? Purchase was over a year  ago, so I can't get Apple help on the phone.

    Try moving and wiggle the devise  if that works the port or the tip of the charger is Brocken if the wire is an apple chatter made by Apple it should not I give your problems I've it in a forren ore different manufacturer that could be the problem apple suggest all apples devises should all ways charges and sync with an apple manufactured charger for the best proformance don't try other doggy chargers made from other manufactures.

  • My Firefox version is 13.0.1, I use Windows Seven 64-bit, when I click on Firefox, but the program does not run! But Firefox is seen in the list of Windows proc

    My Firefox version is 13.0.1, I use Windows Seven 64-bit, when I click on Firefox, but the program does not run! But Firefox is seen in the list of Windows processes, while Firefox does not run.
    I manually deleted Firefox from the list once I have Windows processing.
    And when I clicked on Firefox, Firefox will open quickly and easily.
    Firefox process in Windows Processes names list called "firefox.exe * 32" is.
    Please try to solve my problem, my problem is how to solve?

    Hi, are you saying that you start Firefox and it stalls -- you can see it in the Task Manager but it never displays -- but if you kill that process and start Firefox again it starts up properly that second time?
    If you look at the statistics available in the Task Manager's processes tab such as bytes read or other bytes, can you see whether Firefox is doing anything at all? ''Note: You might need to add columns if your Processes tab isn't set up to display statistics. You can do that from the View menu.''
    You might already have seen these troubleshooting articles. If not, does anything here help:

  • Should I get a SATA hard drive?

    I am about to mod my Xbox, and I am going to buy a new hard drive, but what I was thinking was that I could use my current 160 gig IDe drive and upgrade to a SATA drive.
    Is there any problem with using just one SATA hard drive with my current setup?
    I might not reply until this afternoon, I am at school.
    Thanks

    To answer your question: No there is no problem using a SATA drive with your setup. Indeed SATA is one of the features of this mobo so if you can use it. You don't list your PSU so I do not know whether your PSU has SATA power connectors, either way you should get a molex to sata convertor cable with your sata drive.

  • Iphoto told me to restore from back up due to corrupt file.  When I restore it, it gets all the way to the end and then it tells me it needs to be restored.  HELP!

    So my iPhoto told me to restore my library from a backup due to a problem with the file.  First, there wasn't enough space so I deleted all kinds of stuff.  I finally got it to restore and then it told me it needed to repair, thumbnmails, etc.  It gets almost all the way to the end and then it tells me the file is damaged and to restore from a backup.  It is like I am in an endless loop and I can't get to my photos.  HELP ME

    I restored it again last night.  After the restore I have 52 GB left of space.  The library is 71 GB.  I opened iphoto and it says there are inconsistencies and it needs to repair.  It is doing the repair now.  What usually happens is that it does the repair and then starts the rebuild thumbnail part and gets to the very end of that before failing

  • How does a corrupted file affect the vault update?

    If I would have updated the vault after the files got corrupted, wouldn't the corruption get updated as well? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose?

    I believe it's meant to only copy files that it knows have changed.
    I.e. old masters wouldn't get re-copied, but version updates, metadata changes, new imported masters would.
    Of course, many people here reported having a lot of problems with the Vault mechanism in version 1, but others seem to have no problem at all (suggesting a subtle system configuration difference.)

  • IWeb updates my site to Mobileme, but my library files on the left stay red

    Hi
    Ive just upgraded to ilife 09, and am having trouble with uploading. I didnt ever have this problem before the upgrade.
    The site uploads fine, but once its done it doesnt turn the library files on the lefrt green. Meaning, everytime i do a minor update on the site it repackages and uploads the entire site again making it very hard to update my site
    I have manually deleted my entire site off my idisk and tried uploading again to no avail
    Any help would be supa dupa!
    Thanks

    By url's, do you mean iWeb url's? They should work if you have named your sites differently. If you have not, then they will override each other. Look at your sites - http://web.me.com/username/sitename.
    If you mean domain names linked to your MobileMe account, then how many do you have and how are they forwarded? You can only have one CNAME per MMe account and all the rest must be forwarded using web forwarding with or without masking.
    A little more info would be helpful.
