MacBook AIR not functioning correctly

HI everyone,
I have a 2014 MacBook Air running Yosemite and it has been completely functional until Friday morning when it rebooted itself without any input from myself. I was on a webpage and the screen went white before going to the Apple logo and loading bar. It stays on 50% and does not move... Occasionally after powering it down I cab get to the log in screen but cannot actually log in (the beachball of death spins and spins)
I have loaded it in Safe mode but cannot log in, have gone through Disk Utility (Cmd R) and checked the drives are functioning and I have reinstalled the OS. Just now i have done a PRAM check too... I am totally stuck now and if anyone has some advice then I am all ears.
Thanks in advance,
HQ78

If you have reinstalled the OS and it still doesn't work, then I'm sorry to tell you it's likely a hardware problem, which needs checking at a Genius Bar in a local Apple Store or at a Certified Service Provider.
Use this page to find one near you: https://locate.apple.com/country
If you have none nearby, I suggest you get it sent to Apple to get repaired. To do so, contact Apple Support here: http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

MacBook Air not functioning properly

Hi all, my MacBook Air (running on Lion OS X while downloading Mavericks, purchased in 2012) is not functioning properly. Over the summer I tend to not use my laptop a lot since I mainly use it for schoolwork. I had opened my Air for the first time in a while and it was fine - however after that I had left the screen open and the screen went dark. I had left my Air open for a few weeks and when I tried to turn it on, it would not do anything. It would not respond to anything I did and eventually had to restart my computer in SafeMode. I thought I had fixed my problems however a few applications were giving me trouble
iPhoto would not open at all and after many failed attempts to debug my issues, I had to delete the application from my computer entirely. Eventually I tried to redownload it from the appstore but it wouldn't work so I gave up.
Recently, I noticed that my Mail application will not open (even though the system preferences for it will). I also noticed that a few of my System Preferences will not open - Energy Saver, Desktop & Screen Saver, and Spotlight.
I am currently downloading the newest update, Mavericks. I did download Mountain Lion, however when I rebooted my laptop over the summer in Safe Mode I must have reverted back to a back up that did not have Mountain Lion downloaded into my computer.
I am at a loss of what to do.

check my questions looks similar problem and I have solve it
airplay doesn't work after I bought a new wireless router
hope it fix yours too

New Macbook air not printing correctly to WIFI HP Officejet 8500

When I print a MS Word doc ( newsletter) from my IMac the formatting is perfect, all the text, page numbers, headers and footers print in their entirety on the pages.
When I print the exact same document from my Macbook Air, the formatting is off, it cuts off page #'s and items in the headers and footers get cut off and it appears that the page contents is just to big to fit on the page
Any idea what could be causing this?
Thank you!
All the best,
Dan

I am using Word for mac 2008, version 12.3.6.
Both versions are up to date on both computers.
My iMac is using OSX 10.6.8 and all the Word formatting and printing works fine.
My Macbook air is using OSX 10.8.5. When I print the exact same documents from the Mavbook Air It screws up all the formatting. It almost looks as if the page is about 5% to 10% too large for the printer and stuff at the top and bottom of each page gets cut off.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
All the best,
Dan

Downloading newest software for macbook air not functioning/accepted

Downloading newest software seemed ok until restarted then :no system installed typed code on load up screen - says unable to find driver for this platform?as photo shows.
Any ideas please???

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode.

I believe my firefox is viewing some websites on my laptop in formats that are used for cellular devices. Sites like facebook, sports illustrated, yahoo are not functioning correctly but certain sites work fine.

sits such as facebook, yahoo, and sports illustrated do not function correctly on firefox but they do on my internet explorer. I believes its somehow set itself into the same format used for cellular devices... My JSU.edu page says somethin about it being in (portal mode). It is also a different format now that normal.

Hi @TheBigGiggle ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP ENVY TouchSmart 17 Notebook PC and a keys not functioning correctly. Here is a document on cleaning the keyboard.
I would start with air on the keys as sometimes debris can cause this issue.
Here is a link to uninstall the keyboard. In the device manager have you uninstall all that is listed in keyboards, restart the computer after uninstalling, it should reinstall automatically and resolve any issues with the keyboard.
Here is a link to keyboard troubleshooting.
Here is a fix from Microsoft that might help.
Let me know how this goes.

I am backing up to my time capsule for the first time. It has been stuck on 348mb of 20.1 gb for days. Is this normal or is the machine not functioning correctly?

That seems to be OK via WLAN!
It ist better to do the first backup via LAN-cable.

Spry Menu Issues - Not functioning correctly in Microsoft IE

Hi there,
I am fairly new to web design and dreamweaver.

Any further information required please message me to find out.
Thanks,

THE CONFLICT IS BETWEEN YOUR DOCUMENT CSS AND THE SPRY CSS.
It is because the <li> and <a> TAGS have been styled and therefore OVERRIDDEN THE SPRY CSS.
Use CLASS TAGS e.g. <li class="anyclass"> and <a class="anyclass">
and STOP USING THE <a> TAGS.
N.b. you may need to unstyle any <a> or other TAGS that conflict with the SPRY CSS. (However it's best to start over knowing that styling basic tags may affect the SPRY CSS).

Hyperlinks Are Not Functioning Correctly

I have a problem with the some of the hyperlinks in my
WebHelp Pro project not functioning correctly once the project is
compiled. What happens is that when I click on a hyperlink the text
doesn't change from blue to purple. Not all the hyperlinks on a
page are affected; some may work while others do not.
When I look at the HTML code, I see two different things
happening, and both things may not occur in the same code:
1) In some documents the code reads "a visited=0000ff." The
value should be 800080.
2) In other documents "font color=blue" is being added to the
HTML code for a particular hyperlink. Other hyperlink code in the
same document may be unaffected.
I have checked the font color in the editor to make sure it
was set to "automatic" before I created the hyperlink. I removed
the hyperlinks altogether, recompiled, then opened the document
back up and recreated the hyperlinks. The problem still exists.
Every document in my project is using the default.css style sheet.
I use the same paragraph style throughout the project, both on the
links that work correctly and those that do not.
Has anyone ever experienced this problem? And if so, do you
know the fix? I could manually edit the HTML code before publishing
my project, but that is just a bandaid fix.

The hyperlink color is controlled by the style sheet. I edit
my style sheets in a text editor. Make sure you clear your browser
history before testing the color changes.
FWIW, I like my links to stay blue--I usually have the color
change to purple in hover just to indicate that what is moused is
indeed a viable link.

ICal not functioning correctly

First of all, I have been using Entourage which I sync with iCal so that I can sync my calendar with my iPhone. I would like to discontinue using Entourage but for some reason, iCal is not functioning correctly. First, the calendars do not appear in the left hand window and I cannot seem to figure out how to get them to appear.
Second, when iCal opens off of the dock, there is nothing showing on the calendar at all. When I change the view (i.e., month, to week) then all of my scheduled events appear. When I go back to the original view, everything appears. When I attempt to sync with MobileMe, I get a message at the website that "a script is not responding." I don't know whether the two are related or not.
Any help?????

I have the same problems. Also, I can't enter a "multi day' event, the system tells me there is a fault and it cannot synch. I was automatically updated to MobileMe, but the system isn't performing as promised.

Touchpad not functioning correctly

I have an Envy 17,(Windows 7) and the touch pad is not functioning correctly. I have had it do similar things in the past but they seemed to fix themselves after a few minutes, but this time it just keeps messing up. I CAN click on programs to open them but once in a program, I cannot click on anything. I CAN click on links when online, but they always open in a new tab and when I attempt to click on a new tab, the tab completely closes out. Once a program is opened, I cannot close/minimize/maximize it using the touchpad, nor can I access File/Edit/other menu options. I also cannot click in a typing field. (I'm using a different computer to do this post)I can barely move the curser around. It jumps or freezes up. I move it up about an inch and as soon as I take my finger off the touchpad the curser goes back to where it originally was. I've tried restarting the computer but that hasn't worked. I've attempted tried some other things as well, but since I cannot click on anything with the touchpad and can barely move the curser, I am at a loss for what to even try. Everything was working fine this morning. I literally got up from the computer, made breakfast and sat back down and it was all glitched up. No one had touched it... I had not recently downloaded anything nor have I made any updates to the computer. Thank you, Neyephe

Hello there, It sounds like there is a hardware issue with your touchpad, which you need to replace. As stated in the warranty, the touchpad may only be replaced by an Authorized Service Provider. If you cannot find any places that are authorized, you may contact the HP Support Center via phone and arrange a date for your touchpad to be replaced. In the meantime, you can buy a USB mouse to navigate your laptop. Best wishes getting your issue fixed! Best Regards,Shawn

N96 Telephone Service Not Functioning Correctly

Good evening folks,
Now, I've had this problem for as long as I've had an N96. TWO N96's in fact, as my first was replaced by Nokia due to the screen-slide connection malfunctioning. Both have been fully firmware updated and restored on multiple occasions in an attempt to fix the problem.
The telephone service on the handset has the habit of not functioning correctly, like the service has hanged or just doesn't respond.
For example, I find a contacts name in contacts, press the green key to show their contact numbers, and green again on the number I wish to call- nothing happens, other than the available numbers disappear and you return to the regular contacts view. This is what would normally happen anyway, only you'd have an outgoing call happening over it and showing the "telephone" screen.
Or, example two, in a text message I chose Options > Call > Voice Call and press the select or middle button to initiate the call- No call, instead the options dialogue disappears and I return to the standard message view. Again, I should be in an outgoing call, not viewing my text message.
Example three, to really show the telephone service isn't working;
I'm in full signal, text messages are functioning correctly and the mobile web is working flawlessly. A friend sat next to me rings me and is immediately directed to my voicemail, not a single indication from the handset that I may have been receiving a call.
Seconds later I receive a text message from my operator to let me know about a new voicemail my friend just left me.
So, the telephone service isn't functioning as it should be.
A quick restart fixes the problem in 4 out of 5 cases, however usually within 24 hours the problem is persisting again.
Not being able to make outgoing calls isn't a problem, because at least then I know the telephone service has failed on me and I can restart.
A potentially important incoming call about anything being directed immediately to my voicemail? Problematic, especially if they don't leave a message and instead just keep trying me, as I receive no notification from my operator about missed calls and there is no way other than to try and make an outgoing call as to determine whether the service is still functioning.
It isn't shown as a regular application whilst not in a call and I don't believe I should even have to check if it's still running as this function is the main function implied in the device category 'smartphone'.
Rant over, so if there's anyone out there who could shed some light onto this situation, please do.
Also, kind of off topic- but in the case that this is a universal problem (which I'm assuming it is, having had two completely different handsets with the same symptoms), do I go after Nokia to provide me with a different model of handset, or the supplier (The Carphone Warehouse) since my handset isn't properly providing a function that is advertised?
Somehow I presume I'm rightfully entitled to a reimbursement or different model. Hopefully.
Thanks in advance people

You're so right.... I managed to get over the problems, never upgraded the firmware... Once I got all the apps I use and needed, never touched it.... Still the phone is a mess, worst ever... I came from an Iphone, fleeing from lock OS and stuff, and found myself in a Symbian hell..... Definitely Windows Mobile... I'm so down on this phone, I spent 650 dollars, one year ago.... The worst investment ever... Never again a Nokia or a Symbian smartphone, for cheap ones apparently are the best. I'll wait another year, to feel less pain when buying a new one for 600-1000 dollars.
Solution: Buy another phone... Better if it is a Windows Mobile.... As HTC for example.
Regards,

CUC Cluster not functioning correctly

Saw a few posts and documents relating to this issue but they don't match up perfectly with my particular scenario. Basically, the customer could no longer log into the Unity Pub so we had to do a rebuild as nothing was working. The sub took over as it should, a co-worker rebuilt their Pub and the split-brained effect never went away. In, fact they arn't communicating at all almost a week later.

Overall, they are in that split-brained mode and working with CUCM but I'm not sure why it hasn't corrected itself. Both the pub and sub have been restarted to no effect.... Any ideas on why this is still happening? I am in the process of pulling logs.
Error shown by CUC at the Admin page after login:
  Communication is not functioning correctly between the servers in the Cisco Unity Connection cluster. To review server status for the cluster, go to the Tools > Cluster Management page of Cisco Unity Connection Serviceability.

Check NTP. Ensure Unity is synced to a stable good stratum source - preferably stratum 1,2 or 3.
On your version, time slips can cause memory leaks on servm. This in turn affects cluster communication.
You said you couldn't access Pub. Pub would have been on high CPU. Another symptom of this issue.
You can confirm by looking at the core dumps - 'utils core active list'
See if there are any servm core dumps. Most likely the server is affected by CSCug53756 / CSCud58000
