I tried to copy too much to desktop and now my MacBook pro is frozen!
I tried to copy way too many items to my desktop, and now my MacBook is running at a snails pace. It is essentially frozen. It always has the rainbow cursor, sometimes it's spinning sometimes not. I have restarted in safe mode, and has not really helped. If I try to do anything by clicking on it it, It doesn't respond usually at all, and if it does it takes about 20 minutes. What can I do?

I dropped my external HD on my hard tile floor and now the drive is not working properly. I have tried a repair in Disc Ultilies with First Aid with no such luck. It started to work then I got a message "Filesystem verify or repair failed" about 3-4 minutes into the first aid repair disk. When I plug in I get the disk you inserted was not readable by this computer message. Please I need help on restoring this drive!
Its a simple tech pro drive 1TB.Unfortunately, a drive that has been mechanically damaged by a drop and can't be repaired using Disk Utility probably can't be fixed any other way either. The best you can hope for is to salvage as much data from the drive as possible using one of the data recovery utilities linked below, and then replace the drive.

If you can't recover your most important data using one of these utilities, the only remaining hope is a data recovery service, which is very likely to cost $1000 or more for a 1TB drive. -
Takes unusually too much time for shut down R Macbook pro 15
During the shut down procedure I have the white screen for unusually long time. My R Mac book pro is a new one I have had this since the first day. I download a fresh OS X but still the same.
You're still under warranty. Take full advantage of it by calling Apple Care about your concerns.

The album is Voxis - Darkeworld. I'm trying to copy this album into Itunes and Itunes will NOT auto fill any of the Information. I did check in the itunes store and the album is there. The digital copy is missing tracks 22-95.
iTunes gets track information for imported CDs from Gracenote, not the iTunes Store. Go to the General preferences in iTunes and make sure that the option to automatically retrieve track names is checked. If it is, it's possible that Gracenote doesn't have that CD in their database, or can't correctly identify and match up the CD. Your system or network may also be blocking access to Gracenote in the firewall.

Can I bring files from a NTFS formatted external hard drive (from Windows XP 32 bit desktop) to my new macbook pro retina?
What are these files you are trying to copy over?
If they are program specific and there is no program on a Mac to read them then you'll have to find either a Mac version of that program or one that does the same thing and can read those files.
The file extension should not change just because you connect a NTFS formatted drive to a Mac computer. A Word Document is still a .doc/.docx ad the same for all other office type programs. Music files with an extension of .MP3, or whatever, should read the same on both system. Same goes for all other files like images with a .JPG extension.
Yes I would network them.
I would not use Migration Assistant. There is nothing on your Windows PC that can be used on the Mac other than your personal data files. No programs or settings can be carried over from Windows to OS X.

Also, when I view the files from the external hard drive, they show up as .nbz and are not recognized by any program on the Mac. Should I just abandon the hard drive option and start sharing files through the LAN approach? -

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

Have just installed Mavericks and restarted the MacBook Pro. That was 3 hours ago and after logging in, I got my wallpaper and dock, but none of my desktop icons, just the spinning coloured wheel. It's been like that for 2 hours. Is this normal? What should I do, please?
I tried holding the on/off switch down to make it shut down, but when I turned it back on again, the same thing happened and none of the keys etc makes any difference.
HELP!!!! Please.No, what you're experiencing is not normal.
Try booting whilst holding down the Shift key - this will allow you to boot into Safe Mode, disabling third-party kernel extensions, etc. Your Mac will be slow to boot and will operate sluggishly. That's normal. If you can get in using Safe Mode then you have some start-up item that doesn't play well with Mavericks.
Call back,

I just bought an I phone and was playing Scrabble when an advertisement popped up and I tried to go back to the game and now I can't use any of my apps because whenever I touch one they shake and have an X on them. What did I do?
Relax. Nothing is wrong.
You accidentally tapped-and-held a little too long and you entered what many people call "jiggly mode" - i.e. app reorganization and deletion mode. When in this mode, you can move apps around on your various home screens, create and organize app folders, and delete apps (by tapping the X).
Exit this mode by tapping your Home Button one time. -

I have also deleted the account and added back and it still saids the same thing. I would really appreciate any help on this.
You are referring to your iTunes/app store account? You will need to sign out of your old account on your iPhone and sign in with the new one.
