I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!
FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

Earlier today I turned my phone off and back on...then I noticed that my contacts in my messages were not showing up, only the numbers. I tried to do a backup restore-- didn't work. I tried adding a +1 in front of all my contacts, that didn't work either. My contacts are still there, they are just not syncing with my messages. How can I fix this?

IPhone started freezing after upgrade to ios 5. How can I fix this
iPhone 4 was ok up till iOS upgrade, since the upgrade my phone freezes and I always have to perform a hard restart. I have even restored phone to factory settings still the same sad story. Anyone else with the same problems
You have encountered the anti-theft Activation Lock. You must enter the required information which is the "old" Apple ID. You will have to try and recover the password here:
https://appleid.apple.com
If unable to do so, try to contact Apple Support:
https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action
Click "Other Apple ID Topics". If you are unable to enter the information, you iPhone is a brick. -
I receive messages from iPhones normally. But when I try to text people who have regular Android phones, I either get their messages really late or I don't get them at all. It makes talking to my friends extremely hard and I need help trying to fix it. At first, I thought it was the service of the college I just moved to until I realized my messaging worked fine here until I updated my phone to the iOS7. Somebody help me please! I have an iPhone 4S!
Deactivate then reactivate iMessage on your phone.

Since downloading ios7 onto my iphone 4, I no longer receive text (or game) notifications. I do if my phone is in use, but not when the screen is dark and the phone is idle. If I click the top button to activate the phone, a text will be present on the screen before I unlock it, but there will have been no visual (screen activating with text in view) or auditory (text chime) alert. Has anybody else experienced this problem? If so, how did you resolve it?
I feel like such an idiot. I just figured out that when exploring the new control panel, I accidentally turned the Do Not Disturb function on. I've turned it off and all is well again.

HT201210 my Iphone is completely down; error code 2001. How can I fix this?
My Iphone 5 is completely down; error code 2001. How can I fix this. I updated the last version of ITunes. Before then phone went black the battery run empty very fast. I had a long flight and switched the phone completely off with 30% battery remaining to make sure that I had battery after I landed. However I couldn't get it working anymore. When I push the home and the "off" button at the same time I see a Itunes logo and a USD connection with an arrow.
Thanks,

Hi there Rlong50,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

Recently I bought a MacBook Pro, the first time I entered a disc into the disc dive it wouldn't load up in Itunes - just kept freezing; and the disc drive made a lot of noise, how can I fix this?
I've had my mac for less than a month and for the first time I put in a disc. I can hear a laser sort of noise as well as the disc flapping about or a motor sort of sound? Sounds really bad to me :/
Someone please help!Sounds like a hardware issue.
Did you buy the system from Apple? If so how recent is recent? If it is new you have 14 days to return it, not sure what the situation is with refurb systems. If it is over 14 days you should still have warranty support make an appointment at an Apple Store or contact Apple support.
If you bought it from someone other then Apple you will need to contact them.
good luck

My Macbook pro won't open downloaded programs, it just opens the code it was written in using the text and edit app. How can I fix this? I just bought the computer last month so this is some what frustrating.
If you are downloading .exe files, those are Windows programs, and will not run on your Mac unless you install Windows on it. (That is possible, if you need one of those apps.)

My mid-2012 MacBook Pro has the fan constantly running. As soon as I turn it on. My MBP won't even be hot and the fan is running. How can I fix this?
If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.
