I've just installed an update and now my MacBook is stuck on the apple page on restart. Can somebody help me get out of this or do I have to let battery run flat?

I've just installed an apple security update released today I think. On restart it is stuck on the grey apple page. How do I recover from this? Do I gave to wait for battery to run flat? Don't want to press and hold power button in case cause damage.

This may help.

Ff 26 just installed an update and now downloads do not appear in the download window.

I've tried several solutions recommended to people who had this problem in prior versions but none of them work. It does not matter whether I display downloads in a separate window or sidebar. The downloads are actually happening in the background (when I open windows explorer the file is listed in the folder) and the download window is there, but nothing about the file or its status appears in the window.
I use Download Manager Tweak 0.9.8 open in a sidebar but the problem persists when I have downloads open in a separate window.

I was using the add-on Download Manager Tweak 0.9.8 rather than the native FF download manager and just discovered that Tweak will not work with FF 26. The Tweak download window stays blank even if files are downloading. When I downloaded and re-installed FF 25.0.1 my downloads showed up in my download window again as they always did before the upgrade to FF 26.
Can the Mozilla FF team track down what caused this problem and correct it so that Tweak will work again or at least contact the provider of Tweak to try to find a fix?

Help - I just installed Mountain Lion and now my MacBook Pro crashes all the time

Hi everyone. I've recently installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and now it randomly crashes. I tried finding the pattern (maybe when I open a specific app, or go through a series of steps) but nothing, it just happens, and it feels random.
Here's the latest panic report I got:

Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
         com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff

Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They should be more than willing to install a new logic board at no cost. I have no idea why this faulty GPU is making the headline here on the MacBook Pro forum so often now - could it be because Mountain Lion is just bringing the issue to a head more readily? I don't know - I only know that we're seeing more and more of these kernel panics of late.
Good luck,
Clinton

Well, that illustration is suggesting you plug your iPad into iTunes (current version: 11.0.2).
Have you tried that?

You will probably have to put it in recovery mode to restore it, as explained in this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

I was udating my iphone 4 software on itunes, it got all the way to the end, my phone switched off then it said error could not download software and now my phone is frozen on the start screen????

Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

I just installed latest updates and now itunes becomes unresponsive after 10-15 minutes

The latest OSX update (Security Update 2013-003) perhaps is breaking itunes. It becomes unresponsive after 10-15 minutes and I have to force quit it each time.

with that one, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

Just installed OSX update and now widgets don't work

I click on my dashboard and my widget icons all show up as black squares with a @, a music note, a cloud, and a clock. I click on them and nothing happens. How can I fix that?

I found just one of my Widgets malfunctioning (BBCWeather Widget) and contacted the author (correct term?) yesterday. He replied this morning with a link to an updated version!
That is one option for non-Apple widgets, but if you have many widgets misfiring, it's a tall order. And if it's the widgets that come with Tiger, then maybe try downloading and installing the appropriate 10.4.7 Combo Update from this page.

HT3224 I am new to Mac and started transferring data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro. Connection was lost once I started and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring Information' screen. How do I get out of this screen to attempt the connection again?

II am new to Mac and was trying to transfer data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro. The connection was lost however and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring you nformation' screen. How do I get out of this screen so I can attempt the connection again? Is it safe to force shut down of my Mac and will it still prompt me through all the setup process again?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If your Mac and PC are connected by Ethernet, unplug and plug that cable again. If not, you have to turn off the MacBook by holding the Power button.
In the next startup, try to transfer your files again. It's important not to interrupt the transfer process, because in most cases, you will stop it and you won't be able to resume it

While I was updating my ipod touch to ios 6 the battery got drained during the process, i tried restoring it, it couldnt now my ipod is stuck on the Apple logo screen.

while I was updating my ipod touch to ios 6 the battery got drained during the process, i tried restoring it, it couldnt now my ipod is stuck on the Apple logo screen.
Can anyone help me with this issue???

Connect your iTouch to your PC then open iTunes, if iTunes does not recognize your device, try to hold the SLEEP Button and the HOME button at the same time (iPod Reset) for a couple of seconds until the "Charging Tone sounds, now you should be seeing your device name in the iTunes " Device List". If you do, just click RESTORE and iTunes will automatically restore your iTouch to original set-up and download the iOS6 update.
Hope this helps..
