Mac os x cd has been in processing for 4 days.

Is this normal for it to be in the processing stage for so long?
Please reply quick.

Which version of OSX install CD are you trying to use and for what model (year, version) macbook?
And not, it should take minutes, not days to boot up from the dvd.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • HT1725 My download of a tv show has stalled on my ipad4, it just says waiting. On the iTunes Store, it says downloading. It has been like this for 3 days. Help.

    I bought several episodes of a tv show on iTunes. I downloaded all but one using wifi. I watched one and then deleted it to make room. I started downloading the last episode (I am now using AT&amp;T not wifi), it just says waiting - been like this for 3 days. I tried tuning my iPad off and on, but it will not start downloading.  The settings show therein room to download. Help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Bought 10.7 Lion to update my iMac, redeemed with code, but it says "being updated..." - it has been that status for three days now.  Any ideas/help would be most appreciated.

    Hi, I have an iMac that is about 2006/2007.   We have enough memory and storage capacity, so I bought Lion 10.7 (we currently have 10.6.8 Mountain Lion). The reason we are updating is that we have a new printer (just purchased), will only accept 10.7 and higher. 
    The email with the redemption code was sent through, and that was all fine.  But every time I go to actually redeem the code and get the software, it comes up with the message:
    "This item is being modified.  Try again later."
    It's been like this for three days now, I've tried off and on. 
    The support phone numbers are fine, but they are closed, and would really like to get this resolved.
    Any help/ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Scornz: They have been saying the same thing for over a week...maybe longer. I submit that what we are being told is not what is actually happening. I would say more, but my last post was deleted because I "conjectured." Pardon-moi.
    So let's think about what we do know. Apple is one of the largest tech companies in the world. They have access to whatever technology exists, and more. Does it make ANY sense that they would be having a problem like this...with these TWO software products...and it's taken more than a week to fix? Does it? What does that make you conjecture?

    1. In case you intend to use maintain runtime then use a single receiver and add multiple inbound interfaces. This is the easiest solution
    2. use a BPM. use send steps in serial. First send step should be File (request for acknowledgment) and then followed by send step for mail.
    Do not go for scripts etc unless no other solution persists since maintenance and support in the future will always be an issue.
    let me know if u still have issues.
