I've restored my old iMac using the original install discs to OS x10.4.6 and now can't connect to the internet with airport. Can someone please help?
I've done several of the special reset techniques for air port as suggested in the airport discussiions and now am asking for somebody who has had experience with restoring OS X to its original state and what, if anything am I missing. Thank you in advance, lee242.
You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
When you install Firefox 3.6 it will use your existing bookmarks and other user data.
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

Can I use my original Install disc (PPC with OS 10.4)to repair my harddisc with OS 10.5.8
can I use my original Install disc (PPC with OS 10.4)to repair my harddisc with OS 10.5.8?
Is the 10.5.8 Drive also PPC?
Try Verify Disk first if so.
You might be better of trying this...
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

Installing OS to MacBook without the original install discs
I'd been having performance issues with my late-2007 MacBook, purchased in January 2008, for some time. At the recommendation of a friend I backed up my important data to an external hard drive, and subsequently wiped the MacBook's hard drive clean. When I went to reinstalI OSX, I discovered that what I thought were the original install disks were in fact from a relative's MacBook purchased some time later, and when I attempted the install anyway I got the error message "OS X cannot be installed on this computer." I tried re-partitioning the drive through Dual Utility, but that did not solve the issue. How can I get my MacBook working again without the original install discs?
So you didn't clone your hard drive prior to erasing it, you just selectively backed up important data?
What operating system level are you running? If OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion you can boot to recovery mode by holding the command and r keys down when you boot and redownload the operating system. If OS X 10.6 or 10.5, you can contact Apple support to see if they still have the original OS X disks available, or you could buy OS X 10.6 from the Apple online store (I'm told you can order them online once again or you can all them, which in the US is 800-MY-APPLE). -
Selling MacBook (MA701LL/A) 2006-Lost the original Install Discs
I am selling MacBook (MA701LL/A) 2006 but I misplaced the original Install Discs. They will probably show up after I sell the laptop. Is there any way the wipe the hard drive, install Mac OS Snow Leopard (these discs I have) so that the laptop would be fully operational.
ThanksInstall no, not without functional installer discs.
Wipe yes. Clone the internal drive to a bootable external drive. Boot from the external then wipe the internal. The problem is, this leaves you with a computer with no operating system which nobody will want to buy. I don't think they can even install an upgraded system without Snow Leopard on that machine.
Options.
- Try selling it as-is with trashing all personal files you can find, then secure empty trash. Still, it is supposed to have those OS discs because as soon as the buyer starts having system problems they are going to want them. They are part of the computer+system package that Apple sells, unlike hardware alone.
- I assume these are upgrade discs, not the original OS. Frankly the buyer likely will not really want the original OS (though I do because it may have bundled software or utilities!). You could just buy a set of Snow Leopard discs by calling Apple Sales.
- Wipe as above and give a big discount on machine without system. Not good. As buyer I want to see it can boot. -
My Ipod froze and a power symbol came on the screen and I couldn't get out if it. I then connected my Ipod to my MacBook and reset the Ipad to the factory settng. Now I can't connect to the intranet as the WiFi icon in the settings screen appears washed out and does not allow me to access my WiFi.
Any suggestions.DIM/GRAY

One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

I've forgotten my administrator password for my macbook pro and don't have the original OS X disc; I do have the OS X disc for my iMac. Can I use this to reset the password?
You have nothing to loose by trying it.
I doubt it will boot but try it anyhow.
You will need to contact Apple for replacement install disks.

Macbook Pro died and now won't connect to the internet
I just got home from college and my Macbook Pro died while I was using it because I couldn't find the charger in time to plug it in (stupid mistake that I never ever let happen usually). After I found it, plugged it in, and started it up again, the date and time were messed up on the computer. I reset them to normal and tried to connect to the internet using my old settings, but it hasn't connected.
I've tried a lot to try and fix it so far and it still won't connect. Other computers and devices (HP and Dell laptops, iPod touches, PS3) that my family have and use all work and connect to the internet fine.
I've tried to run the Network Diagnostics and after plugging in all of my settings and information, it says that it can't fix it. Next to it on the left, the Airport, Airport Settings, and ISP are all green...but the Network Settings is yellow and the Internet and Server are red.
I've deleted my internet settings and tried recreating them and that hasn't worked either. I have also tried the Assist Me portion to make a new connection - no luck there.
I've also tried resetting the Macbook Pro and the router (an Actiontec router for Verizon FIOS) multiple times and that hasn't worked either.
I unfortunately can't use Time Machine either because I don't have an external hard-drive and haven't set it up.
I just don't really know what to do at this point. Hopefully someone can help me out!Same problem--hoping to get Apple's attention by throwing my hat in the ring with everybody else.
Things tried (now approaching 2 weeks of failure):
Deleting "Airport" Connection, Adding/Restarting/Re-adding/etc.
Archive Install
Erase & Install (full reinstall done by Genius)
Card Replacement
Bluetooth Replacement
Zapping the PRAM
Trying different connections/routers/locations/connection types/etc.
Visited Genius bar 4 times now.
Have been without the computer longer than I've been with it.
Trying to change over from a horrifically bad Dell to a refurb Mac worked once before...though I've come to believe: It's not the refurb, it's not the hardware, it's not the settings, it's not the router, it's not the install, it's not the associated software, it's not the connection, it's not the Super Moon that comes up tomorrow...It's a hardware issue as this has been happening since I opened the computer out of the box, and we have an identical computer running identical programs on an identical network with the identical updates and NO problems whatsoever--I'm assuming the innards may have been cheap'ed out somewhere to save a buck or a connector is faulty after a particular build date?
Full symptom list (in no particular order):
Connection Timeout
Connection Drop
Not recognizing Airport
Card Recognition but endless connection time
IP non-recognition
Random re-connect
Indication of connection without transmitting/receiving data

APPLE, WHERE ARE YOU!? -
Please help
Did you purchase this phone used?
If you are trying to activate an iPad and it is asking for the original owners Apple ID and password you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must contact the original owner to get permission to use the iPad. If you cannot contact the original owner return the iPad to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the iPad and no one can help you do it. -

I downloaded the newest firefox and now it wont connect to the internet.
I updated to the new firefox 4 and all the sudden it wouldn't connect to my internet. I did a system restore and now my firefox doesn't work at all. I click on the icon and nothing happens. It doesn't open or even think about opening. I don't want to lose all my personal information, there are a lot of websites saved on there that I absolutely NEED!
Have you tried starting FF in safe mode and then disabling all add-ons and extensions?
Then restart the browser enabling each add-on one by one. I did this and found that Stumbleupon toolbar was the problem for me as my browser was freezing as soon as I started it and going into not responding but with this currently disabled the browser works fine. Just hope there is an update for Stumble soon. -
I have used the older version of firefox and it worked fine. I downloaded version 4 and now cannot get on the internet with firefox. It keeps saying I'm offline and to check a particular box to correct the problem. I have no idea what they're talking about and would appreciate any help.
Ah I figured it out.....Mcafey was blocking it. Why on earth did AVG being uninstalled update mcafey settings, to block firefox?

Upgraded my itunes yesterday and it failed. Tried reinstalling and failed again. Now tried to install several earlier versions and coming up with windows error 126. Do you have any ideas on how I can fix this? Please help.
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

There are several third-party utilities that will let you transfer from the iPod to the computer such as
Pod To Mac

DeTune
And there are others. Also, you will find a user manual for your iDevice at support.apple.com/manuals/.
