Mac Air is dark and emits three short beeps/three long beeps/three short beeps ("SOS"). What does this mean?
Mac Air was left on power attached to a monitor overnight. In the morning there was a message that I had to turn it off by depressing the "on" key for over then seconds. I did this and it would not turn off. It is now emitting three short beeps followed by three long and three shorts ("SOS" in morse code). What does this mean?

If what I read is correct, you will need to take your MBA to Apple to have its firmware restored.
I cannot explain why this happened.

my icloud keeps saying "loading" next to storage and says "icloud storage details are currently unavailable. try again later." what does this mean?
Apple has been having a number of server issues today and this may be related to that. Give it some time and try again later.

What does this mean?
My iphone 4s just developed a similar problem. Ultimately, after a visit to the Genius Bar at which I was offered a replacement phone for $149, I took the phone to a non-Apple repair shop which diagnosed the problem as tarnished pins in the docking connector and replaced the connector for $49.
The symptoms I experienced were that the phone would not pull a charge. I tried different cables, wall outlet versus computer USB connection, etc. The screen stayed black until I depressed the sleep button, at which time the red battery / lightening bolt symbol would flash three times and then the screen would go black.
If your battery is dead, that icon will not show up at all. If you get the icon, it means your battery is run down and needs to recharge, but the defective docking connector is preventing the battery from taking the charge. -
How can I get my ipod nano connected to itunes?
What you have on your computer is your iTunes library, not an "account."
Did you download and install the latest version of iTunes, which is available here?
https://www.apple.com/itunes/
If you have an earlier version, it may not support the most recent iPod nano, which could explain why Windows does not have the device driver to identify it. -
I'v also moved my library to an external hard drive as I'd run out of space. I don't know if this has caused the problem.
Any advice appreciated.Once you successfully add you iTunes library to iTunes Match, you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store on your iOS device and turn on iTunes Match. Your iTunes Match library will then appear on your iOS device.

I get this message often when updating things. I have told Small Dog Computer where I buy my stuff, and they didn't have an answer. Thanks in advance.
What does this mean? ... System extension cannot be used ... The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/IOFireWireWDHID.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update.Interesting ... thank you! Actually I had that external drive, Western Digital, a while back on my second last? or third last? laptop ... the external drive died with a slew of pictures I had carefully uploaded to it :-(
I won't worry about it anymore :-)
sorry you got only 5 points, can't figure how to give you 10 points. -
6.6 (1510/1508). It can’t be used on Mac OS X Version 10.8.5 (Build 12F37). what does this mean and how to fix?

Therefore black birds are crows.
The build I have is the released build of Mail. I reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates that the problem is with my version of OS X.
The build you have is the released build of 10.8.5. You reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates it is a problem with your version of Mail.
The above are examples of flawed logic.
Seriously now. Since you obviously don't know what a Combo Update is, I will tell you. A Combo Update is short for a COMBINATION of Updates. That means that there is MORE THAN ONE update in a Combo Update. It is, therefore, quite proper to speak of "one of the Combo Updates". For people whose first language is not English and are not familiar with its subtle nuances, perhaps I should have said "One of the updates contained within the Combo Update was"
"There aren't "versions" of the combo update, unless Apple releases a revision"?
This is plain silly. It means "There aren't versions unless there are"
Also I didn't use the word "version". See above for the explanation of what I DID say.
Are you one of those TROLLS I keep hearing about?
I hope you got a lot of phoney Help points for not actually helping.
Don't bother replying, I won't come back to this thread, so I wont see it. Of course you'll get another phoney Help point, so I suppose you will, but I'll never know. Doesn't that mess with your head?
Bye Bye
What an attitude you have.
Erase your drive and reinstall correctly, stop messing about with incremental patches. The routine you need is BERR (backup, erase, reinstall, restore) or just stay as yu are, it is entirely up to you.

The depth of your ignorance shows here, there are no phoney points, only ones awarded by posters who receive solutions, and only at the original posters choice. -
downloaded Appleworks 6.2.9 for Mac Updater-2.sim but when i try to open the file i receive the message "legacy image should be updated". what does this mean and/or entail?
Mavericks is not recognizing the .smi extension - on my Mac it thinks it's a RealPlayer document. You are not going to be able to do anything with this - it requires AppleWorks to be present to be updated, and you can't run AppleWorks on Mavericks (other than by the rather roundabout process of installing Snow Leopard Server in Parallels and installing AppleWorks on that, as described here).

On an older Mac I got this message while trying to burn a CD for the car: "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean? And how do I work around it?
I had been getting this all morning and checked other messages from the community. THe one which worked was trying a different brand of disc.
I had been using Verbatim which had copied the music fine off the Real Player on my PC at school, but wouldn't work with I Tunes. Tried a Staples and an Office Depot CD-R , both of which did the job. -
I'm a first time Mac user and I went to play my music on Itunes out loud and all the music I previously purchased will not play and then a pop up appears saying my computer is not authorized? what does this mean and how can I fix it?
You need to authorize the new computer that youre working with. First hover over the store button at the top of the screen and then select the authorize this computer button then a popup will appear where you have to put in your Apple ID and Password. Hopefully this works for you

I just download mountain lion to my mac, now microsoft office suite doesn't work....it says 'you can't open the application 'microsoft word' because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What does this mean and what do I have to do to fix it?? HELP!!
Install Snow Leopard on another boot partition, or upgrade Microsoft Office to a newer version, or use any number of better alternatives. Some of them are free.
Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10)
OpenOffice (completely free)
In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for over a year now. Life is better without Microsoft. -
Starting with files in
Powerpoint Mac 11.3.2 version converting to Google Docs Presentation, I'm told I need Quicktime and a compressor to view images. What does this mean?Were you using third-party software when the panic occurred? Is the panic repetitive or it just happened once? IN the latter case it could simply be a software glitch. But if it's repetitive then there's some other problem either hardware or software. Use the Console application in the Utilities folder and review the console log around the time of the panic to see if there are additional clues to the cause of the panic.
The error indicates that the problem was a failure to respond to an interrupt by the CPU. Now this could simply be caused by a software glitch, but it could be a hardware problem related to the CPU. In the latter case the panic would probably become repetitive, in which case you would want to take the computer in for service to be sure the CPU isn't failing.
