Im installing and it tells me it make a recovery disk? What does this mean?
I'm installing the new mountain lion and it say that it needs a recovery disk? I don't know exactly what it is asking? Please help!
Unlike OS X versions prior to Lion, Mountain Lion does not come with an install disk, and the installer will delete itself from your hard drive after you install ML, so you'll be left with no handy way to recover your drive in case of a problem (especially a problem during or right after install). Read the following MacWorld Articles to learn all about Recovery and creating a Recovery Disk:

I actually needed the one I made this time right after installing ML--my Disk required some repairs--and I was really glad I had it!
Good Luck!

Backup Failed. Comment is "Make sure your computer and backup disc are on the sme network and the backup disc is turned on". What does this mean?
Just back from the dentist.
Did a hard reset and when i asked time capsule to do a backup it tells
me
"Time Machine could not complete the backup. The backup disk image is already in use"
I think I misunderstand how this back up device works.
Is it to be plugged into the back of the router with an ethernet cable?
I have the Time capsule sitting beside my Imac.
The cable modem and router are in another room
I am new at this stuff. Thank you for patience and help -
The back light turns on and I can hear the click wheel but no apple sign comes up on the screen. Any guidance would be much appreciated ;)
It's possible that your iPod is working to some extent (since the backlight is on and the click wheel makes a sound when used), but the LCD screen is not working. First, try doing a Reset (which restarts the iPod)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1320
Even if it is still not working, does anything change after doing the Reset?
If that does not help, when you connect it to your computer's USB and run iTunes, does it appear in the sidebar under DEVICES? If it does, select it in iTunes and try doing a Restore. The Restore button is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings.
If the iPod does not appear in iTunes when connected, or if doing a Restore does not solve the problem, the cause is likely to be hardware-related. -
I have a new hp 2050 printer and received a 10.0000 supply memory error message. what does this mean
I have a new hp 2050 printer and received a 10.0000 supply memory error message. Can anyone tell me what this means and how to fix it?
mickeymackey, this error looks similar to a related error code that I found for laserjets. Here is a summation of that error code:
http://goo.gl/W7dP6
This describes the problem as being a cartridge error, in which case I would follow the instructions in this document and see if that resolves the issue:
http://goo.gl/h6hWz
that does not resolve the issue, then I would recommend performing a hard reset of the printer. This would involve unplugging the printer for thirty seconds from both the back of the unit as well as from the outlet it is plugged into and then plugging the machine back in and powering it on.
A few additional questions are: Is this printer plugged into a surge protector, wall outlet or battery backup? The ink you are using, are they original HP cartriges or have they been refilled before?
Let me know! -

Try restoring. Make sure you have a backup first.

I have recently upgraded to an iphone 5S 4G and also updated my mac with the latest software so that i can use the icloud to back up all my stuff. It doesn't seem to be working with my contacts at all and recently added ones are disappearing, old ones are duplicating etc. The contacts icloud has the following error message CoreDAVHTTPStatusErrorDomain error 501. and I have no idea what it means. Can anyone help?
I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck! -
Any assistance here would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks. all.

Select the songs and go to Edit > Delete. Then, download the music in iTunes Store -
My internet is still working, but it's very intermittent. This happened after I updated the firmware a few days ago.
Did you remember to completely power cycle the entire network?
You would want to do this after any update or change to the network.
If you did not do this yet......things are out of sequence.
Power off everything on the network.....all devices.....power down order is not important
Wait a few minutes
Start the modem first and let it run a minute or two by itself
Start the next device connected to the modem the same way
Work your way out on the network starting each device about a minute apart
Check the network -

when I try to upload the latest version of iTunes, it tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi. What does this mean as I can't seem to find any such folder and now I cannot uninstall Itunes either
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 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.

apple application was not found, apple application support is required to run ituneshelper. please uninstall itunes and install itunes again error 2. What does this mean?
You can try installing 7-Zip (free), then right-click on the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file to unpack its contents, and install AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. It may still not install successfully, but if it doesn't you may get a more useful error message regarding the reason why.
