Yes. You need to update your Vista to Service Pack 2.

  • Help!!  I changed my log in screen to show a blank name and pw. Now I cannot open the computer???

    Help!!  I changed my log in screen to show a blank name and pw. Now I cannot open the computer???

    1.Turn on the computer and when you hear the startup chime hold CMD+S. This boots the computer into single-user mode, giving you root access.
    2.Once single-user mode loads (it looks like a black screen with white text) mount the hard drive. So at the prompt type in:
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    3. Now that the drive is mounted we can edit the file system. We need to delete a file that tells your computer that you have completed setup. So type in:
    rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
    4.We need the system to reboot so it can check for the file and not find it. Type in:
    reboot
    5.Continue setup
    Be sure to select “DO NOT TRANSFER MY DATA”.
    6.Finish setup and login.
    7. Go to system preferences and edit that account so it HAS A NAME.

  • Got a Screen named hardware teste and a error msg

    I was playing World of Warcraft,
    i went to sleep, turned the MBP off,
    when i woke up, i turned it on, a diffrent screen apeare named "Hardware Test"
    and give me an error MSG:
    4SNS/1/40000000:TGOD-86.500
    what that means?
    what should i do ?

    Call applecare or take it into an apple store. I got the same error message once, but without the 86.500 part, and ended up having to get my logic board replaced. Only those at apple know exactly what the error codes stand for though, so best to get in contact with them, and I would back up any important data just in case.

  • After a security update I get the log on screen for a site which I use which then immediately reverts to the starting page of the site without a chance to log on

    The site in question had no problems until the security update.
    If I log on using Firefox 3 there are also no problems.

    Hi:
    Just had a similar problem.
    (And I think the solution might apply to Leopard Server as well as client versions of Tiger and Leopard.)
    Last night, I applied the 2009-001 security update to our PPC Tiger Server. I did it via a download from Software Update, controlling the server's screen remotely from home via ARD.
    Upon restart, I could not longer see or control the server via ARD, but the mail server was still working. ssh prompted me for passwords, but wouldn't let me connect.
    So I came to the office this morning and found a blue screen and a spinning wheel cursor.
    I tried a number of things, including:
    --Starting in safe mode (it wouldn't)
    --Single user mode and running fsck
    --Repairing permissions using Disk Utility (via a start-up CD)
    --Repairing the disk using Disk Utility (via a start-up CD)
    --Resetting the PRAM
    --Disconnecting peripherals
    Then I saw a tip on-line somewhere and reinstalled the security update in the following manner:
    --Download the update from Apple's downloads page on CPU-matching hardware (that is, a PowerPC Mac.)
    --Connect via FireWire Target Disk mode.
    --Double-click the installation package and install it on the server's hard drive. (This didn't work the first time I tried installing from an Intel Mac.)
    --Restart.
    And the server restarted and away we go.
    I've got some mail server issues to repair (it appears), but at least it's running again.
    I have not tried restarting again to see what happens.

  • Why does my sound only come on sometimes when i get to the log in screen for World of Warcraft?

    Product: HP Pavilion dv9628nr
    Operating system: Vista
    Error Message: (i dont know if it is an error message) "No Audio Output Device Installed"
    All I did was play the latest content for World of Warcraft (Patch 4.3). I hit the mute button and it turned red. I hit "exit" and "exit now" after i was done playing and it took a long time to exit. After it was back to the very familiar screen with all the icons the sound was gone. The mute button was blue after a restart, then it started saying i didn't have a sound card when i tried looking for it. The next day i turn on my laptop and and the mute button is red when it's starting up. After it was done I unmute it and sound worked fine, but for a while. After that the sound only comes back on a few rare occasions when i get to the login screen of world of warcraft. Then after a while of walking around doing nothing, the sound is gone again, but the mixer is still there (the mixer disappears after i restart). It also doesn't let me successfully uninstall the sound driver. I restart and go to reinstall the driver on the website, but during the download it says that it's already installed and if i want to overwrite, when i hit "yes to all" the lap top beeps LOUDLY, and says the installation failed because it didn't find the device. What's going on?

    The boot ROM is static unless Apple issues a firmware update. I just checked and they never released any such updates for the eMac. Without a firmware update available, I know of no way to overwrite the current version.
    What did the serial number check show? Don;t post your serial number, just whether it fell within one of those ranges.
    The logic board issue was specifically bad capacitors. Look at some of the pic posted here:
    http://picasaweb.google.com/gdegagne/EMacCapacitorReplacement#
    Open your RAM door on the case bottom and look inside. The third picture in the web site is the view with that door open. You can see only two of several possible bad caps through the RAM door but, if those two are leaking brown goo like those in the image, I think you will have found your problem.
    I just realized you are in Tacoma. That makes the closing of the repair place I mentioned all the more sad, as your shipping costs to Eugene OR would be much less than for an eMac owner living several states away. Heck, you could have driven it to Eugene!
    Really, I'm not in the habit of preaching 'gloom and doom' but, in your case, we need to deal with the logic board issue first to be able to provide you with worthwhile help should your computer not have the "bad cap" problem. If bad caps are the problem, there is not much we can offer other than to refer you to Google to search for self-repair instructions, or to Apple Customer Relations (1-800-767-2775) to consult regarding a Repair Extension Program that was apparently shut off too early.

  • Logging into AppleID for FaceTime & iMessage fails without error

    I want to setup FaceTime and iMessage.
    I have an Apple ID that is an email address other than ME.COM. The address is verified and I use it to log into iTunes and iCloud.
    When I try to log in with the apple ID, the screen moves forward to the email address screen, but then goes right back to the login page without an error. Nothing I have been able tomtrynhas made it log in. I even attempted to do the login on another iPad and it worked fine. So it's apparently something with that iPad.
    I have reset the iPad, tried forcing FaceTime and iMessage closed, but not sure what else I can do. I'd like to avoid doing a full reset and restore. So if there is anything else I can try, I want to go down that road first.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    I don't know if this will work, but it's far less of PITA than restoring the iPad to factory settings. Have you tried resetting all settings?
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. I don't know if that will reset FaceTime and Messages, but you will have to set up all of your app preferences and iPad preferences again if you try it. Not nearly as much work as restoring though.

  • My Safari software has stopped working.  Every time I try to log in to the internet, I get an error msg dealing with an Apache server.  It just started to happen a week or so ago.  What's going on?

    I have a Safari web browser that I have used since I purchased my Mac in 2008.  Within the last week or so, I have been getting an error message, which says something like it cannot find the Apache back server or something like that.  As a result, I have not been able to enter the web via Safari.  I have Mac OSX, version 10.6.8.  In the past, I needed an update to my operating system software to view on-line videos.  Is there a similar problem with the operating software this time?  Or has Safari gone off the air.  I am utilizing Firefox to enter the web currently and I can continue to use it, but I would like to have a back-up web browser.  Can someone help?

    <<That may be so, but email is an inclusive part of the broadband package.
    If the broadband service  activated on a given date, then the included email facility should be working too. Anything else would be an altogether unacceptable situation for me...unless the broadband had been activated in advance of any agreed date.>>
    I totally agree with this. Never before have I signed up for a service where email has taken longer to be activated than the broadband connection, in fact, it's been the total opposite, all my past providers activated my email account before the broadband was activated and I was able to start using the address immediately so that by the time bb was enabled, I was ll and truly up and running.
    I do not want a hotmail account or any other type of email account, I want to use what I am paying for, btinternet.
    So far, am not a happy customer and am beginning to wonder if I should have gone with another provider.
    Sorry for the rant but I expect more from such a big company.

  • Can't Log In through log on screen!!

    Hi, I've been having a problem with my iBOok G4, i restarted it the other day and when it came back on, it goes to the log on screen for maybe 10 seconds then goes to a Darwin screen. After maybe another 30 seconds it goes to a blue screen with the wheel spinning. What can I do to get back to my desktop, I have finals on Thursday and can't get my notes off. Help please!!!

    Hi lszwik,
    You have a couple of options.
    1) Most preferable, if you have another Mac accessible with a firewire port, you can connect the two in target disk mode. This will allow you to pull data off of your iBook G4 even if you can't boot it to the Mac OS X desktop.
    Here is a great article on using Target Disk mode via firewire:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    2) If you have a Mac OS X 10.4 install disc, you can boot from that disc by holding down C right after powering up your computer. You can run Disk Utility from that 10.4 install disc to "Repair Permissions" and "Repair Disk"
    CAUTION though - if at all possible, please back up using Firewire Target Disk Mode listed in Option #1. Your drive sounds like it is in a fragile state.
    3) If #2 does not work, reinstall Mac OS X from the install disc and choose "Archive and Install" option. This will keep your files and user settings intact.
    This article shows you how to select archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1103.html
    4) If #3 does not work, you may need to do a full "Erase and Install", also covered in the article above. CAUTION: You must have a backup before selecting this option. You will erase everything on your computer.
    Again, finding another Mac user or visiting your local Apple Store's genius bar will be invaluable because you can put the iBook in Target Disk mode and hopefully get your files off before attempting OS X repair.
    Please let me know if I can be of any other assistance.
    Best,

  • [solved] Blank screen for few seconds between GDM and Gnome-Shell

    Hi there,
    I don't know if this phenomenon is "normal" or not, so I ask : I am using Gnome 3.6 and after I have logged in on GDM I see a blank screen for roundabout 3 seconds before the gnome-shell starts. The whole system is running fine - so this is no "real" problem -, but this 3 seconds of a black screen between GDM and the gnome-shell are somewhat annoying and I want to find out if this behaviour is normal or not .
    Indeed, if I look into journalctl, I find this messages:

    And

    Any ideas, what's going on here?

    Finally I found out what's going on - and it's so simple
    It's just my monitor which is runing on a default resolution of 1920x1080. When I switched to 1600x900 using Gnome's system tools, the monitor needs roundabout two seconds to adjust to this resolution
