Mail will not quit System will not shut down
My computer is locked because mail will not quit and the system will not shut down or restart because mail is still running. Whatever I click on in the mail window I get the thunk sound. I cannot send or receive mail, access the individual mail boxes. I think I might have accidently deleted my mailbox, but it shows in the source list so I am not sure what happened? Anyone have a clue on how to get mail functioning again????
Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, find the Mail application in the list, and quit it. If it won't quit after this has been done, save all open documents in other applications and use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process; you will then be logged back in or returned to the login screen depending on whether automatic login is enabled.

I tunes will not quit, nor can i shut down. This happened after an update
I have done force quit many times. i don't know what else to do. There is also now a CD stuck in the computer. Help please
well, lets work on getting the stuck cd out:
use the F12 or eject key on the keyboard.
If the disc will not eject try dragging the disc icon to the trash.
If the disc will still not eject, holding down the trackpad or mouse button after restarting the computer should also eject a disc.
If the disc continues not to eject, reset the Power Manager (PMU) or System Management Controller (SMC) and try steps 1-4 again. -
iPhoto will not quit, nor will it allow my Macbook Pro to shut down because it thinks it is importing photos. There are none left to imort.

Has anyone any idea how to get around this please?

Hi there , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! I read your post on the HP Support Forums and seen that you are having issues with your HP Pavilion 15-n260tx Notebook PC and the Sleep/Shut down options. It sounds like you might be having an issue with one of the features of Windows called Hybrid Shutdown that is used for the Fast Startup feature. Here are a couple of links for you about Fast Startup, Hybrid Shutdown and How to Shut down your Notebook completely. They also have some troubleshooting steps in them. 1. Fast Startup - Turn On or Off in Windows 10.2. Shut Down Computer in Windows 10. If those do not work, I do have some more documentation for you to read and try. 1. Shut down (turn off), sleep, or hibernate your PC - This document is from Microsoft. 2. HP Notebook PCs - Managing Power Options (Windows 8)3. HP PCs - Sleep and Hibernate Issues (Windows 10, 8) Sometimes a BIOS Update will work. You can update all of your drivers by going to the HP Driver's website or by using the HP Support Assistant. On the Driver's page there is not an update for the Windows 10 Column, but there was an update that just came out under Windows 8.1 on Aug 7, 2015 that should work for your Notebook. Another fix that may work is to Run the Troubleshooter. Please follow this link to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter. I hope this helps! Have a great day!

While performing a system update, I shut down my iPod touch. Can the pictures on my iPod be recovered if my iPod was not backed up?
iPod is fourth generation, the system update was a little over half complete.
I want to get the pictures off the iPod so that I can keep them. Is there any way to do this?Maybe,
- if when you connect the iPod to your computer you can make a backup? If yes yo can restore from that backup
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
- Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backup dated when you started the update. the first stiep of an update is iTunes making a backup.
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

my Iphone 5 got stuck when I did rest all Settings in my iphone 5 and my iphone do not restart or shut down. The phone do not have the ability to shut down.
Did you try to press and hold the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting the device.
If this does not work, try connecting in recovery mode, explained in this article:

IMac does not power off when I shut down
I have an iMac with 10.7 as the operating system. When I power down the machine the screen goes gray and just stays in the gray mode until I hold the power key down manually. It starts up normally, just a "shut down" issue. I recently upgraded from 10.6 to 10.7 and had the same problem with 10.6 (not sure that means anything.) I am pretty sure this is not a good way to shut down a Mac. Any ideas on what might be going on here? Thanks.

Why does my 4s just close an app all of the sudden and the apple logo will come up like it's shutting down but doesn't it will go to lock screen after that.
It's definitely a crash. I'd maybe look into reinstalling the operating system.

Make sure you back up first though. -

When I start iTunes on my home computer (Not a MAC), it automatically shuts down, and gives me the message that the Data Execution Prevention security feature has shut it down...what to do?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

I just subscribed to IHome but when it tries to gather information about my music library, I get an error message that my Itunes is not responding and then it shuts down. Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue! -
Migration from PC with MA did not end. Had to shut down MacBookPro. After restart no new user was created. Can't find the transferred data (35 GB). Would like to delete it.
iTunes is required to initially activate the phone. Back when the iPhone 3G was sold, you would take it out of the box and see a "Connect to iTunes" screen. She HAD to connect to a computer in order to begin using the phone. Does she remember what computer this was?
