Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you purchased the computer before 2010, your computer hasn't got Thunderbolt, so you can't use it

Any advice on how to get Xprotect Updater to work again?
I know that it was faithfully doing it's job -- as long as immediately after I started-up my computer, I got online right away. It has always seemed to be on a timer of some sort and thus, never worked unless I followed that routine (which was fairly easy to figure out -- as Little Snitch clearly revealed).
Even, when (Xprotect Updater) is updated by Apple, I could clearly see the increase in the size of the signature payload.
I assume that it normally overwrites the signature cache or whatever it's supposed to do each and each & every time one first signs on (albeit promptly) because I could see it as it happened using Little Snitch. It ran like a Swiss Watch, did it's signature overwrite, thank you very much; but now I'm lost.
Perhaps Apple is working on it at their end & it's temporarily down? Which has happened in the past and, of course, the signature payload was predictably greater once it started working again.
Thanks in advance,
mm~All-set; problem solved.
I found a reference to toggling "Automatically install important security updates"... found under System Prefs/Security/General.
I did that which worked great.

How to get the webcam to work?
Hi,
As I don't have an instruction book for this computer, can anyone tell me how to get the webcam to work please?
There is supposed to be something that pops up from the side of the screen, but I've left the mouse sit there for ages on all sides and nothing. Please assist me.
Kit_eI refer you back to my original question.
There used to be a bar at the side that popped up when you left the mouse sit there for a bit. It no longer pops up ... ie: it's disappeared and will not return ... this is what "started" the webcam for use as a webcam.
I have no idea on how to use the webcam from any other place. There is no icon. There is no mention of it in the programs list. There is nothing. There is a webcam sitting there in the laptops lid, but I can't find where to "access it". Like I said there is no icon, nothing in the programs list.
I want to be able to use it. You know, like you use a webcam. On the web, as a camera. No particular website or software that I have in mind.
Thanks. -
Hi. I have Snap To Grid and By Kind enabled in Lion but it's not working. When I trash an icon, instead of snapping the remaining icons to the By Kind grid, a space is left where the trashed icon was. Any suggestions on how to get Snap To Grid working?
Where are you talking about the Desktop?
I don't see where it is possible to set both Snap to Grid and By Kind they seem to be mutually exclusive.
And then
If I have Snap to grid set I get the behavior you describe. If I have By Kind set the icons stay together and close up the space from the deleted icon.

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again. -

I-photo: I used 2 cameras to take pictures on a trip --- i have put the pictures from both cameras into an album --- when i click on view and then sort by date, the pictures do not sort by date --- any ideas on how to get the pics sorted by date?
Select all the photos that you need to change, then click the "Photos" menu and choose "Adjust Date and Time".
If you add a year, it will adjust all the photos that you selected by adding a year (so if you accidentally select one of the photos that already has "2012", that will change to "2013"). -

I have Windows XP, 32 bit version 2002 Svc Pack 2 and when trying to download iTunes 10.5.1 I am getting the following "The older version of Bonjour cannot be removed. Contact your technical support." I've tried a good number of remedies to no avail. Can anyone help?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you are running 64-bit Windows and the above steps haven't helped try installing the version of iTunes that can be downloaded from this support document. iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
If you still have no luck try reinstalling iTunes 12.0, links in the user tip.

Some of thy images are appearing pixelated. any idea on how to get the issue fixed
some of my images in Aperture/iPhoto are appearing pixelated. any idea on how to get the issue fixed
Where can I find a copy of that? Like if I were to completely delete everything on my ipod, what would I do to go about restoring my songs?
Also I have a theory that one of the videos on my ipod is causing all the other stuff. However, I can't delete videos off my ipod (see https://discussions.apple.com/message/20313736?ac_cid=tw123456#20313736). Is there any way i can get the music from the backup but not the videos? -

When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it. The iPhoto window opens up and reads the photos on the iPad, so it is connecting to the computer. Earlier today I wasn't having any problems. I have shut down the iPad and the computer and started over, but that didn't help. Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad so I can update the apps on it?
Hi, is the problem just to update your apps on your iPad? Here is what you should check. Is the iTunes on your computer updated to the latest version? Does your iPad needs to be updated? Do you have enough storage on your iPad to do the update? On your device is your iCloud back up checked?
Go to Settings - iCloud - Backup/Storage - see if its checked, and try unchecking it before connecting it to the computer.
Please let me know if you need any further assistance. -
I have been charged 274.55 from 8-23-2013 - 8-26-2013. These are not my charges. I need to know how to get the charges reversed and put back on my account ASAP. Please confirm!

Hi My Iphone 4 keeps on turning off with no reason and there is no way of turning it on. any advice of how to get it working?
I guess but that was what I was on earlier but it wasn't of much help.
I need to chat with an apple person but don't know how if I don't have a phone accessible.
Is there a way to connect thru a laptop or something? -
I'm taking it in to get it looked at but will they cover this? And is there a way to fix it before I take it in. I'm still under the 1 year warranty plan. My friend said that they might exchange it. It's a 64GB and I use it for a lot of things like my picture, music, contacts, and email. It's got scratches on the back but other wise its ok the screen isn't cracked or scratched.
I have a usb charger for it but when I plug it into the PC or my wall charger it won't charge. It just says "Charging is not supported with this device". It even says that sometimes when it's not charging. But it works on a dock station like my clock or radio.
Also my home buttom won't work unless I press down real hard. This scares me because I'm afraid I wil persss it too hard and break it even more.
Please help.- See:
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.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
