Mac os10.6----power on--- no picture---no mmouse---no keybord function.

How do I attempt a fix?   Power is on the mac-----I cannot get a picture-----thus, I cannot communicate wih the computer.

Ok. What mac have you got? Mini?
Do you have any other MAC's in the house?
When you say stuck, jammed? Or you just cann't work out how to get it out without the keyboard to eject it?
Have you tried booting up holding shift, or escape?

    Try resetting everything:
    power down everything: modem, router, and computer
    power up each item in turn in the same order: modem, router, and computer. Let each power up completely before moving on to the next.

  • Downloaded Firefox 4 to my Mac OS10.5.8 and now can not open Firefox.

    Downloaded Firefox 4 to my Mac OS10.5.8 and now can not open Firefox. The processor is 1.25 GHz Power PC G4 and 768 MB DDR SDRAM memory. Is it possible to go back to an earlier version that was running very well on my Mac?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

    How do you do a system back up to external drive on Mac OS10.4.11 power mac. Don't have automatic back up like Time Machine on this older i-mac GS5

    I Like Carbon Copy Cloner,  you will need to hook up to another disk of some kind, then it will create an exact bootable duplicate.
    The older version is available here:

  • Problems with Mail after upgrading to MAC OS10 version 10.6.8

    I upgraded to MAC OS10 version 10.6.8 about ten days ago, and have since had lots of problems with mail. Since I upgraded, I have downloaded several software updates, including one for improving the general softeware system of Leopard.  Since this morning, I no longer have the Mail icon in the dock and when I try to open it in Applications a window comes up saying:
    'You can't use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OS X.  You have Mail version 4.5 (1084/1085). It can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549)
    Can I download a version that I can use with this Mac, and can anybody give me the site where I can find this. I have tried without success

    You should consider downloading the 10.6.8 combo updater and applying it again.

  • My Mac book will power up but the apple sign remains in the middle of the screen and a gear turning below it -nothing else happens -can you help?

    my Mac book will power up but the apple sign remains in the middle of the screen and a gear turning below it -nothing else happens -can you help?

    A couple of things to try:
    PRAM reset by holding down cmd-opt-p-r on restart. Hold down the keys until you hear the second startup tone.
    If you have a wireless keyboard, wait until you hear the startup tone, then press the keys.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Boot into Safe Mode by holding down Shift key on restart. Same timing applies to wireless keyboard.
    Safe Mode takes a while to boot. It will show a progress bar. It will boot to the login screen. Log in, then restart normally.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    Boot into Recovery HD by holding down cmd-r. Same note for wireless keyboard.  Once booted, run Disk Utility and repair Macintosh HD (or whatever you have renamed it).

    Hi
    I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

    Do the following:
    Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
    Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
    Calibrate the monitor

  • After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. How do I uninstall and reinstall the software?  Adobe's instructions are only for Window devices.

    After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. I suspect corrupt software.  How do I uninstall and reinstall the software?  Adobe's on-line instructions are only for Window devices.

    You can just drag the file to the trash. If you want you can remove  the pdf plug-in from the internet-plug in folder, but that should not be necessary to correct your problem.

  • Mac OS10.9 Quark 9.5.4 - font leading issues

    Mac OS10.9 Quark 9.5.4
    Recently upgraded OS and Quark and my documents that use the font Avenir are not displaying correctly. Fonts leading has expanded so anywhere Avenir is used, the leading changes the layout and most text boxes are overset.
    - leading is set to Auto
    - do not use a font manager, I use FontBook- checked usage and font is not missing
    - deleted Avenir, emptied font cache, restarted and issue still exists- made a new user, packaged a file, opened in new user and issue still exists
    - not just one file, issue exists in every file I made that uses Avenir in my archive- had my colleague open the same archived files on their computers and files were correct
    - had colleague send me Avenir font, deleted out of my library, reloaded font and issue still exists
    - deleted font out of my library and just used Avenir system font, issue still exists- deleted Quark and re-uploaded, issue still exists
    - re-uploaded OS, issue still exists- did a thumbnail transfer of items from old doc to a new doc, issue still exists
    - have spent over 6 hours on the phone with Quark support and have numerous messages back and forth in a job ticket, no resolution
    I would not normally use Quark, but a client reuqests it. I suspect I might have a corrupted system font but I am unsure. 3 weeks behind schedule on my project and am desperate for help. Any ideas?

    I just found out my E3000 was no longer compatible with making a Guest Access password.  Spent a ton of time online chatting with a Linksys/Cisco rep who told me it was not longer compatible with the newer operating systems...BUT THIS IS A LIE! My E3000 works great with Yosemite.  A couple of things you need to know.  1.  You can no longer use the Cisco Connect CD to set up a Guest PW.  It has been replaced by a handy App, that you can download from the App store:  http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=156285 2.  You can change the settings on your Wifi router directly from this app.  No need to go into the 192.168.1.1 site and configure it but if you want to, you still can do this.  On the website, there is no way to configure the GUEST settings unfortunately.... 3.  You can configure a Guess Access code and set the number of computers allowed to use it at one time on the App.  After you set the code, it will bring you off line then online again.   Make sure you log in to your WIFI network under both Guest and your WIFI network to see if works.  For some reason, it took some time for my iPhone to bring me to the Guest sign-in page, but I eventually switched the ON/Off button on the Guest Password setup and it worked.  All guests should be redirected to a CISCO SIGN-IN page where they can log in with the guest Password. 4.  I can't believe the customer reps didn't tell me immediately about this app!  I gave it 1 star as it wasn't working very well until I reset everything and started over.  Maybe that was just my incompetence.... Good luck!  My 5 yr old dual band router is still working very well!  No need to get a new one to be compatible with Yosemite!   

  • ITunes crashed now Mac mini wont power back on

    iTunes crashed now Mac mini wont power back on

    You have not provided any information on which to base troubleshooting. Minimal information would include the Model Mac mini you have for example Mid 2010 Mac mini, exactly what happened when iTunes crashed, and what -- if anything -- happens when you try to restart. It is unlikely iTunes has anything to do with the failure to reboot but instead iTunes crashed because of what even caused your Man mini to fail.
    Just as a starting point, be sure and check all your connections, power, monitor, keyboard, mouse, everything. You would not be the first to have a plug come adrift unexpectedly.

  • Switching from PC to Mac mini, enough power to perform tasks?

    Switchingfrom PC to Mac mini, enough power to perform tasks?
    Tasks:archiving slides, scans at 9600 DPI result 2.5 GB files, some of the scans are around 60 MB files. Also intend to edit video. Mostly working in Photoshop cs5.
    Miniconfiguration:
    i7processor with discret video memory
    500GB HD (with external USB 3 storage)
    4x1GB RAM  and add another 4x1 later
    PCDell XPS 8300 configuration:
    i7processor
    500GB HD (with external USB 3 storage)
    12-16GB RAM
    Don't know if the mini will be enough of a machine. It can only go up to 8GB RAM, but I know the architecture is different. Also, does the minirun cool and quiet? This is a home environment.
    ps operating system is Mac OS X , don't know about the (10.7.2) .

    I have both the new Mini Core i5 and my existing Gateway Core 2 Quad PC; both running 64 bit OS.  If you're running 32bit OS on a PC, only the first 4Gb is recognized and utilized.  The Mini is Lion, the PC is running Vista 64 and I do digital media stuff both for a living and also for fun.  First things first..
    You need at least 8Gb of RAM to start with the Mini if you're going to deal with HD video and working with CS5 in a 64bit environment.  8Gb of RAM on the Mini just flies, 16Gb even better; albeit noticeable faster than 4Gb especially if you are working with 64bit compliant applications -- I am.  My Mini came stock with only 2Gb of RAM, but a pair of Corsair Mac Memory certified RAM I bought from a PC store did the trick.  According to OWC (macsales.com), the Mini can be upgraded up to 16Gb of RAM, eventhough Apple official stance is 8Gb.  Secondly, throw in a SSD (Solid State Drive); this will speed bootup and applications plus act as a page memory place just in case 8Gb of RAM isn't enough, which is already the case as I am using 64bit applications in dealing with RAW images and HD videos.  But because SSD drives are fast, there isn't any lag at all on the Mac.  I have a SandForce 6G SSD drive installed on my Mini as a second drive (Mini Mid 2011 has 2 drive bays inside).  With the PC, however, you need at least 8Gb of RAM, and even then my PC is complaining that it is running low on memory when I'm working with DXO Optics Pro 7 Elite on RAW files.  So the Mac is more memory efficient in usage compared to the PC.  My PC too has a pair of SandForce RAIDed in 0 mode to help with memory paging and overall performance boost.  The beauty of the PC is that, you have lots of internal bays where you can configure the drives to function in RAID mode, especially RAID 0.  With the Mac Mini, you will only have a few choices; there is no option to add USB 3 storage unless you want to go the Sonnet Thunderbolt to Express 34 card USB 3 route which is severely limited by the Express 34 bus speed. 
    However, with Thunderbolt, you get faster than USB 3 port speed and is the future.  You can buy the Pegasus RAID array box for Thunderbolt.  It is pricy, but worth the investment.
    Last but not least.  Mini mostly runs cool if not pushed.  If it is pushed, it will run warm enough to keep my coffee warm when placed ontop of the aluminium case.  At least, it runs a lot quieter than my PC with those blazing fans spinning at insane speeds when rendering RAW and HD videos (both CPU and GPU).
    Hope this helps.

  • 13" mac book pro power supply weight?

    What does a 13" mac book pro power supply weigh

    My 85W adapter weighs 10.45 ounces (296 g) without the "duck head" corner plug inserted and 11.05 ounces (313 g) with the duck head in place. You can probably figure that your 60W adapter weighs (or will weigh) 10-15% less.

  • Cannot get CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files

    I have spent hours downloading a variety of stuff and still cannot get  CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files. I  have downloaded the Camera Raw 4.6 plugin. Photoshop acknowledges that  is the version installed. But it won't recognize the .CR2 file type.  When I say show me all files, the files show up in the open file dialog,  and the thumbnails look right, but when I open the file it is munged. I  also installed the DNG Converter, which also does not recognize the  .CR2 files.
    Has anyone figured this out yet? It has been almost a year. I don't want to upgrade to CS4 or 5 or buy Lightroom.

    The Adobe DNG Converter 6.2 will open your files, if you have an uncorrupted download and use it properly.  No doubt about that.
    Once you launch it, be sure to target a folder containing raw files, not the raw files themselves.  At least on the Mac, the DNG Converter works on folders, not on individual files.
    Alternatively, you can try dragging and dropping the individual raw files onto the DNG Converter icon.
    Some routine maintenance may be overdue on your Mac, such as Repairing Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, running Onyx or Cocktail, etc.
