Macbook pro hardrive, this may not be important, but i am new to macbooks

hi guys.
sorry to be a pain again, as said in the title i am very new to macbooks (apple computers in general). what i noticed, i have been watching tutorials on the apple site. I noticed that in all of them they have the hard drive icon in the top right hand corner. mine doesn't, so, i went into my finder icon on the dock, and dragged the mac hardrive from there (from the bit located on the left where devices are) and dragged onto the desktop, N o w, i did this and then there was a poof on the screen and it has disappeared and is not showing in the devices bit anymore, or is not showing on the desktop!
problably not important, but how i get it back?
sorry!

There are two innocuous things going on here.
(1) Your Finder Preferences (by default) are set to not show the hard drive on the desktop. Go to Finder Preferences (in the Finder menu) and under "General" you can check a box to display the hard drive. Check that box and the drive should appear on your desktop.
(2) You have inadvertently removed an "alias" to the hard drive from your Finder window sidebar. Now that the hard drive is showing on the desktop, open a Finder window (click the Finder in the dock) and drag the hard drive icon from your desktop into the sidebar - that area on the left - where you want it. A new "alias" to the hard drive will be created there - as it was before. The hard drive will still be displayed on your desktop.
The sidebar is just a bunch of pointers ("aliases") to the indicated objects (folders, files, devices). You can get rid of them by dragging them out of there, as you have found. You can always drag things back in there to make the aliases.
I hope this makes sense.

  • I upgraded to 6.02 and still get this message from Gmail: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version."

    When I opened Gmail in my Firefox browser, I got a message I've never seen, before: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version." I clicked on upgrade to a new version and was taken to the Mozilla site, where I downloaded the latest version of Firefox... then, when I restarted my computer, Gmail still gives me the same message!! What's going on?

    Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and a Mac with an Intel processor.

  • I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

    I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices... 

  • HT201263 None of the above have worked. Ipad completely bricked. This began when merely updating IOS software as instructed. Now Apple want to charge me for using their crappy software as directed. Surely this is not only immoral but potentially illegal.

    Read: iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
    That procedure eventually leads you to the need to restore it.
    Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. Be patient since it sometimes takes several of these attempts before you are successful.
    If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links. 
    Select the iPad in iTunes and choose "restore from backup". This assumes you have a backup. If you do not, you will have to download all your purchased iTunes content again. You do not have to pay for anything you already purchased.
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

  • 1st - itunes downloaded to my ipod albums that are all fractured, compilation albums are seperated.This should not have happened but itunes felt it knew better. I do not like it.

    1st - itunes downloaded to my ipod albums that are all fractured, compilation albums are seperated.This should not have happened but itunes felt it knew better. I do not like it.
    2nd - While trying to fix it, itunes made all albums and artists unknown
    3rd - While trying to get an answer I am unable to contact anyone or even send an email requesting an answer.
    4th - While trying to use the "fast lane" i ran into trying to find the product S/N, I went to my account and it was not there. I tried to see it on the back of the Ipod but had to find a magnifying glass to even read it.
    5th  -- The we will get back to you really ****** me off
    6th  -- I have wasted 2 hours to fix something that should not have happened and the situation is worse than when i started
    7Th  --- Itunes management of songs is terrible and there are NO instructions and even worse no support
    8th  ----  Apple is going down the toilet because the products are good, not great, and the itunes instructions are non existent
    9th  --- to even suggest i pay for product support is insulting and a sign that apple is desperate
    10th -The suggestion for online feedback is this; BE ON-LINE SUPPORT, NOT WHATEVER YOU CONSIDER IT TO BE NOW.

    I agree with stevejobsfan - (0123).
    However, if what you actually want to do is to fix/sort out your problem, why no try posting a question on that subject?
    For starters - you can re-name the tracks in your iTunes library, so it is possible to correct the changes that you must have made that mean that songs are now "unknown artists and albums."

  • How to reset the password in macbook Pro? This is not related to apple id

    Hi,
    I gave my macbook pro for service. Initially there was no password set up in the system. However the service guys have put some password to install the applications. (This is not related to apple id and apple store apps). Can you please help how to reset the password?
    Regards,
    Arjun K M

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    As you have OS X Mountain Lion, try resetting the password from Recovery > http://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4101
    It looks like OS X was reinstalled. After resetting the password, you will be able to log in and use your MacBook Pro

    try compiling like this:
    java -cp "." myTest
    This is not compiling, here you execute the already
    compiled myTest.java file (or it should be already
    compiled). To compile you may want to use javac or any
    other available compiler.Oops, sorry, I didn't mean compiling.
    If you were able to compile ok, you can try running the program by using:
    java -cp "." myTest
    This usually will solve the problem when your program comples fine but can't find the class when you try to run it. It's almost like the compiler assumes to look in the current directory but the VM (java.exe) doesn't make this assumption.

  • This is not a rant, but it's close.

    I will be careful not to rant, but I must summon the strength.
    Instead, I want to continue to share my ongoing nightmare difficulties with Verizon HSI, Verizon customer service, and Tech Support.
    For the previous two years, I was blissfully using Verizon HSI at the 7mb tier with no problems.  I won't go into how it had a messy start (wrong pricing, web offer hand doesn't know what the phone offer hand is doing, etc). 
    There were some uptime issues due to some bad copper pairs, but overall the past two years were okay.
    Little did I know that my move to a house one block away would start me on a path of frustration and despair.
    If you are so inclined, you can read about the initial move debacle here.
    To summarize, I needed to move my service to a different home in the same subdivision, but was forced to go through the entire application process for the new home, as if I was a new customer.  After spending more than an hour on the phone the first try, all I (unknowingly) ended up with was a disconnect order for the old service.  I called back a second time and finally got an install order, but the install was to be several days after the promised date from the first (failed) call.  Customer reps on this forum were not able to expedite the second install order, though I appreciated the attempt.
    This background info is important for a couple reasons.  First and foremost, I gave my credit card info over the phone to Verizon reps for both install attempts.  I gave them a credit card I rarely use.  Coincidentally(?), within a couple days, the card was being used for fraudulent purchases at Itunes and Walmart.com.  Luckily, the card company was able to recognize the fraud early, and cut it off.  Now, I know that is a serious accusation to make, but I stand by it.  That card was tucked safely away for years, with no problems.  Then, within a couple days of giving the number to two Verizon reps over the phone, it starts being used fraudulently.  Not cool, obviously.  I'll let the reader decide if I'm being paranoid.
    Now, that's not where the fun ends.  Since the install, my internet service has been absolutely horrible.  The DSL connection to the Verizon Central Office has been beautifully solid, but my internet keeps dropping intermittently.  (Let me sneak in a complaint that Verizon will only give me the 3mb tier at the new house, though it is only a block away from the old house that had the new 10mb tier available).
    I put a trouble ticket in the second day after the install complaining about slow service and the dropouts.  I must have dialed the magical support number, because I spoke to an American who immediately accepted my complaint and filed the ticket.  I say that, because I got a diffent call center, when I call later.   While the speed issue improved, the dropouts did not, and I was going to have to call again.  As a tech myself, I know how difficult it is to troubleshoot an intermittent problem.
    So....two days ago, it went down hard, and would not come back up.  Remember, the DSL connection is solid, it's the internet that is gone. 
    Since I have a dryloop with VOIP, and I don't get cell service at the house, I had to walk a block to a public phone to call in my trouble ticket.  Unfortunately, I ended up getting the call center in the Philippines.  I have no ill will toward hardworking folks in any country, but foreign call centers are so tightly beholden to the scripts, that is virtually impossible to reason with them, person to person.  He insisted I go call him from my house, so he could trouble shoot the modem.  I explained that I had done the common sense reboots, I had removed the router from the equation, and the DSL connection was solid; there was nothing I could do from my end.  He refused to escalate my complaint, because I wouldn't  (and couldn't from the pay phone), log in to the modem, to "check the settings".   I explained the my settings were fine, because everything was working, before the dropouts.  Common sense dictated that the problem was not on my end.  Even the copper pair was good, because the DSL connection was solid.
    Anyway, he ended up promising to transfer me, but just kept me on hold, indefinitely, until I hung up.
    So, I walked back to my house, borrowed the neighbor's cell phone (with a different carrier that has coverage in my house), and dialed back.  His cell is  a prepaid phone, that I ended up using an hour's worth of time on hold, and pushing through the worthless steps that proved what I already told them.
    Finally, I was transferred to stateside support, where they transferred me to an actual technician.  He quickly realized I knew what I was talking about, so quickly asked if he could work it from his end and called me back.  Much can be said for sharing a culture with your tech rep.  Things are more easily understood through nuance.  I happily agreed to wait for a call, and had to hold my neighbor's cell hostage for a while longer.
    He called back to state that while troubleshooting, he found that I was the victim of a router outage, and he was just learning that others were affected.  He said techs should have it up and running in four hours.  By now, this is almost the whole day, with no internet, a week after installation, in addition to the frequent intermittent outages.  He apologized, but I was relieved that my complaint was validated, and seemed to be on the road to correction.
    The connection did come up within a few hours, and everything seemed fine.  Then, the next afternoon (yesterday), it went down hard again.  DSL connection was still solid.   I grabbed the neighbor's cell, and received an automated message stating my complaint was ongoing.  I opted to speak to a Philippines rep, anyway.  He told me  (for the first time) that a tech was scheduled to see me the next day (which is now today, Saturday).   It was an "all day" appointment, which meant I have to be here all day.  I was dumbfounded.  How can a bad router at Verizon's Central Office require a visit to my home?  I hung up confused, but relieved my ticket was still open.
    This morning, the internet is back, though I don't know for how long.  I've been copying and pasting this complaint to wordpad as I go, so it's not lost, if my internet drops.
    I have a very different IP than I've ever had before, so I suspect I won't see a tech at my door anytime soon.  No doubt it was a router that HOPEFULLY has been replaced.
    I am really spent.  I have dim hopes this long winded story can do some good, because I know big companies can be way too clumsy to make positive changes quickly.
    I hope my internet connection stays up.  One more debacle, and I'll just have to switch to Comcast.  I mean, how much does one customer have to put up with?
    It's not supposed to be this difficult.

    Thank you for the reply.
    I realize Comcast is far from perfect, and I'm going for the lesser of evils, here.
    The lesser evil is the one I can actually rely on.
    I would not agree that I've been treated with respect.  Oh, they're polite alright, (except for the one who put me on terminal hold).  However, beneath the illusion of politeness, the geographically and culturally-removed call center people are simply whacking moles.   I realize they are answering phones for hours, and are doing the best they can under the circumstances.  That is why I do my best to not use them as a target of my frustration.  At the same time, I want to convey how fed up I am with the system.
    In the old days, you called in a problem, and you'd eventually get a tech to come out and talk to you, face to face.  He would explain what actions were being taken, and the customer was reassured that ACTUAL work was being done to correct the problem.  You'd at least get feedback over the phone that made you feel like real people are taking real action.  I'm tired of the scripted "I'm sorry to hear that..."  
    I am half tempted to sully the copper pair connection at the terminal, to get a real tech at the door.
    The feeing I get talking to the call center is a surreal sense of paralyzation.  I'm trying to move my arm, but it won't budge.  I start vocally telling the arm to move, and it replies "Expect a result within 48 hours."     Seriously, it's like I might as well be calling AT&T to report this problem about my Verizon DSL.    It is that effective!
    My internet was down again, last night, from 4:30pm to 6:00 am, EST. (This is my window of opportunity to check this forum and research Comcast's offerings).
    This is after repeated assurances that "everything has been fixed."
    Calling in another trouble ticket gets me the "it will be addressed within 48 hours" line.  Well, hey, I've been waiting a lot longer than that, already.  The only concession I got for my frustration is a credit for one month of service.  At least I have that.
    The struggle for reliable internet continues...

  • I REALLY need help with this! (not too hard) (but hard to explain) (long)

    I know that this isn't hard, but I just can't figure it out.
    I am trying to create artificial cellular life, but the cells will be able to go through sexual reproduction.
    The DNA for the cells is a 500 index boolean array. One array for Dominant genes, and another one for Rececive genes.
    The DNA is generated randomly.
    The division (to make a sperm cell) works like this -
    1. I get a random number with the Math.random() function, and I use the Math.round() function to round it to either a 1, or a 0.
    2. The boolean arrays are converted to integer arrays (true = 1, false = 0).
    3. If the random number is a 1, then (in a for loop) the current index value of the dominant array is changed to a 3. If the random numnber is equal to a 0, then the current index value of the rececive array is changed to a 3.
    I started working on a new class, to combine the sperm cell with another sperm cell (call it an egg cell, whatever, doesn't matter) in order to create a new complete cell.
    I realized that I have no idea how I can reuse my classes, and make NEW cells, without overwriting my old cells.
    All of the final information that the classes produce is passed through TestMain.class (which puts it into other variables, and sends it to the appropriate class).
    So, I need to be able to run the process for creating a cell, then creating a sperm cell out of it, twice.
    I can, of course, just copy and paste this action, but seeing as how I want to have unlimited amounts of cells in action, this would not be practical.
    Here are my classes, sorry that they are not commented, but I explained what they do above, and I will write what they do overall.
    Genes.java - Creates the random DNA (and is essentially the cell)
    public class Genes {
    public boolean[] domgenes = new boolean[501];
    public boolean[] recgenes = new boolean[501];
        public void randgenes()
    System.out.println ("Dominant Genome: ");
    System.out.println ("");
    int domcount = 0;
            for(int i=0; i<500; i++) {
                double tempgene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
                int tempdomgene = (int)(tempgene);
                  if(tempdomgene == 1) {
                  domgenes[i] = true;
                System.out.print(1);
                  else {
                  domgenes[i] = false;
                System.out.print(0);
              for (int x = 0; x<500; x++) {
                if (domcount == 0) {
                System.out.println("");
                System.out.println("");
                System.out.println ("Rececive Genome: ");
                System.out.println("");
                domcount = 1;
                double tempgene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
                int temprecgene = (int)(tempgene);
                  if(temprecgene == 1) {
                  recgenes[x] = true;
                  System.out.print(1);
                  else {

        public boolean[] getrecGenes()
            return recgenes; //returns the rececive geneome
        }DivideGenes.java - This creates the sperm cell out of the information that TestMain.java sent it (which is the information that Genes.java sent to it).

       public int randommath() { //finds a random number
                double tempgene2 = Math.random();

                tempgene = (int)tempgene2;
          return tempgene;

        double tempbingene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
               int bingene = (int)(tempbingene);
                return bingene;
      }TestMain.java - This is the class that all of the result information is passed through, and is the regulator class (this is the class with the 'main' block). I used the names of the objects randomly, they do not represent anything (like cell2 does not represent the second cell), they are just names.

      cell3.CompileCell();
      }CreateNewCells.java - This is going to combine two sperm cells in order to make one new cell. It doesn't have anything in it so far, just some System.out.println stuff I made to show my friends.
    public class CreateNewCell {
    int[] tempdomgenes;
    int[] temprecgenes;
    public CreateNewCell(int[] tempdomgenes, int[] temprecgenes)
            this.tempdomgenes = tempdomgenes;

    System.out.println("");
    for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
    System.out.print(temprecgenes[i]);
    Thank you very much if you choose to help me out.

    As I said before, your code is not object.
    When you write
    DivideGenes cell2 = new DivideGenes(theDominantGenes, theRececiveGenes);it means than from 2 Genes, you are creating a new object which is DivideGenes. I assume that what you want is to create a cell from an other cell and its mate.
    So it should be:
    public class Cell {
      //put here your gene class attributes and methods
      public Cell divideCell(Cell mate) {
         Cell child = new Cell();
         //put here your divide code
         return child;
    }Otherwise I can't understand your code.
    What kind of object is a createcellGene?? It must be a method of Cell !!

  • HT201364 I just bought a new Macbook Pro and I'm not sure if I have the new Mavericks as my OS.

    I just bought a new Macbook Pro and under current operating system, it list OS X 10.9.1 as my current system and says I can update to Mavericks. Isn't 10.9.1 the newest OS for Mac? This is my first Mac and I'm not sure about the way it lists the OS systems in the "about this computer tab". I tried to update to Mavericks and it will not allow me to update, despite meeting all of the above requirements. Can anyone help me?

    I cannot figure out how to get my vidoes from my iphone 5c to my MacBook Pro. Any guidance would be great. I searched Apple websites and google with no avail.

    It is clearly written form the support document you linked from
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    You can only do so if images and videos are taken directly using the iPhone camera but not sync from computer.

  • This May Have Been Asked but I Was Not Able to find How to Update...

    Hello-
    I am new to the iPhone.  Are updates that Apple sends out done behind the scene or will I get a notice that an update is available and follow a certain procedure to install the version update?  The iPhone I recently purchased still has version 16.0 I think it said. is this the lastest OS?  Are there ever any times when I will need to connect my iPhone to my MBP and open iTunes except when I want to transfer music to the iPhone?  should I still be doing this occaisionally for any reason?
    One question I had about a Map App.  Does anybody have a recommendation on a good Map App (even know they are doing small updates to the current Map App) but I am interested in another Map App to view because I like to look at locations/Maps.  for example, when Google Earth came out I thought that was so cool. Google Earth does have a street level. does anybody recommend this App or anyone in particular?
    Thanks

    Try popping out the SIM card and turn off the phone.
    Pop in the SIM card once again and turn on the phone, make sure that the SIM card is placed and seated perfectly in the tray!
    Tell me how did you unlock your phone!?

  • Macbook Pro 13in retina will not start up, but backlight turns on.

    After using it last night, I woke up this morning and my mac was what i thought to be off. But I realized that the back-light was on and nothing else. Now when I try to turn it on the back-light and apple logo come on but there's no start-up sound and when I close the lid they don't turn off. Just fyi I'm running the Yosemite public beta as well but I don't think this is the problem. Cant get anything other than this with multiple restarts. Anyone know something I can do to fix it? Thank you.

    Try a SMC reset:
