My dvd-player in iMac stops automatically since the new IOX 10.9 is installed. What to do?

What to do?

Please complete your profile and indicate what version of Mavericks is installed. If you don't know click the Apple symbol in the upper left of your display and then click About this Mac. After you know then do 2-3 Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets back to back and then retest. If you don't know how to update your profile please click Profile Update for instructions.

  • Has anybody else's itunes stopped working since the new download?

    Has anybody else's itunes stopped working since the new download?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components; this won't affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Ever since the new numbers update that I installed I am unable to open my documents.  I receive a message I need to update....

    Ever since I updated my system to 10.9 and updated the numbers, iphoto, imovie, pages etc I have been unable to open my numbers documents.  I keep getting a message I need to update.  My computer shows I did.  Whats happening?

    I was opening my documents from the document folder on my dock and that's when I couldn't open them.  I also couldn't open them from the old icon for numbers on my dock.  I even couldn't open from finder.  After recieiving your message I did use the Applications to open numbers and it did work.  I also had one document set with a password and I still had problems opening it.  Once I got it open I removed the password temporairly and it opens now from the document folder like it used to before.  Oh yes, I forgot to mention I removed the old Numbers icon from the dock.  Then I dragged the icon from the Applications folder onto my doc and all seems fine.
    Thank you for your help, I just don't know why these things just don't update automatically from Apple.  Ever since using Apple products these past 3 1/2 years I've decided no more Window's computers.  Please to Apple.....is there a way they can take care of these updates beforehand?

  • Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    ,Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    Get the Apple USB Superdrive. It is available on the Apple store page of the Apple web site. Just look under storage on the left hand column under accessories for the Mac.  $79.  I have one since I have a lot of DVD's and CD' s. I burn DVD's made from movies created with iMovie.  Works fine. You may be able to find one cheaper at Other World Computing.
    BTW, you can expect that future computers will not have optical disk drives. This is definitely true for Apple and I suspect other mfgrs will also as we move more into streaming video and downloading of apps rather than selling CD/DVD versions.

  • Windows 8.1 does not see or recognize my cd/dvd player on iMac?

    Installed Windows 8.1 with bootcamp on my imac 10.9.1. Windows does not see or recognize my cd/dvd player on iMac? Everything else seems to work fine.
    Any suggestions please?
    Mike

    Fixed the DVD problem. Please see below.
    Step 1: Launch Command Prompt with administrator rights. To do this, switch to Start screen, type CMD and then simultaneously press Ctrl + Shift + Enter keys to launch elevated prompt. Click Yes for User Account Control prompt. You can also try other methods mentioned in our how to launch a program with admin privileges in Windows 8 guide.
    Step 2: In the elevated prompt, paste or type the following command and press enter key:
    reg.exe add “HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi\Controller0″ /f /v EnumDevice1 /t REG_DWORD /d 0×00000001
    (You can simply right-click on the prompt and select paste)
    Step 3: Exit the Command Prompt, reboot your PC. You should now see the DVD drive in Windows Explorer as well as Device Manager.

    I’m going to get the I Mac and since the new I Mac doesn’t have DVD drive on it I was thinking to get the Samsung SE-506AB Slim Portable Blu-ray Writer in order to burn movies from I movie do I need a special software for that since the SE-506ab comes only with windows software.. but I did check and it is compatible with apple. Can you please advise me and or let me know if I’m buying the right stuff or if there is any other blu ray that will work with the I mac as plug and play.
    Thank you

    This freezing reminds me of really old Macs, long ago, in the days of the old-school peripherals like SCSI drives, terminators, scanners and the like. If you had a SCSI conflict, like the wrong device ID's or something, you'd freeze up like that. Back in those days you'd call 800-SOS-APPLE (AAPL?) and they'd run you through disconnecting all your extra hardware - Jaz and Zip drives, CD burners, scanners etc and then eliminate them one by one by adding them incrementally and testing for the freeze/bomb dialog.
    But, today we have Firewire and none of those ancient issues (no free lifetime tech support either). My iMac's ports are all full, and I only know which devices are connected when I have to remove something for another device. iSight, scanner, card reader, external hard drive, USB soundsticks, etc. You wouldn't happen to have any SCSI devices hooked up, would you?
    Out of curiosity, have you tried a different USB/Firewire port for the hard drive? Or run the hardware test DVD that comes with your computer? This weird freezing seems to suggest a problem with the computer, RAM or network more than a device. Bad devices, in my experience, cause kernel panics, not freezing.

  • CD/DVD player on ENVY 17 not playing the disc.

    Hi:
    See if performing each of Resolution Steps 2, 3, 4 and 5 from the link below restores functionality to the DVD drive.
    One of them normally will.

    I have been using GRAB to capture screen displays.  It has just stopped working since the last OSX Upgrade.  Can anyone, please help restore functionality?

    Thanks for that.  I did as suggested but when I tried again, it still did not work.  Another  com.apple.Grab.plist appeared in the Library.
    I now have the following files in Library
    file://localhost/Users/peterpatel/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Grab.LSSharedFil eList.plist
    file://localhost/Users/peterpatel/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Grab.LSSharedFil eList.plist.lockfile

    What do you suggest I do now?

  • Snapchat has stopped working since the update

    Snapchat has stopped working since the update, plus my phonebook still doesn't work after going in setting and clearing the data etc etc or running a repair???

    Sorry to hear that you have issues after the update-
    Have you tried to uninstall and then install the app again after the update? This may be needed with some apps when you update Android.
    Regarding contacts, please continue that discussion in the first thread: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/phonebook-contacts-not-working-since-update/m-p/972365

  • I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too..

    I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too. Any ideas? I'm guessing the only way is to do what I've seen in these community pages which states that it can be done but it will drop the bandwidth by 50%. Thoughts?? Thanks!

    The Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G was one of the very few routers said to be compatible with Apple's implementation of WDS (Wireless Distribution System) settings.
    The info that I have on file indicates that only the WRT-54G versions 4 and under were compatible, so that would be one bridge to cross.
    Even if you find that your Cisco/Linksys might be the right version, Apple never published instructions on how to configure the Express devices with other manufactures, so users were left to their own devices to try to figure out how to get things working. Apple's instructions to connect to other Apple devices are in the link below:
    WDS network
    If you were hoping to use 2 Express devices in this type of configuration...even if it works...the bandwidth penalties will be extremely severe.
    The first Express drops the bandwidth (and speed) on the entire network in half and the second halves everything again. So, the result, in effect would be a "g" wireless network running at 25% speed. Few users would consider installing this type of network.
    At this point, it becomes one of those things where the fact that you might be able to do something does not mean that there would be much value in doing so. But, it is your decision to decide if you want to try to proceed.

  • HT1414 my top button has stopped working since the ios7 update can you help the shop said its not directly the button as its clicking properly

    go to mail.

    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)

  • Since the NEW version has been installed, I've receive an update notice of a critical update. Each time I select to apply that update the dialog display never apply any update, it looks to be in a processing state but never completes.

    Any Firefox updates are set to automatically update on my computer. I currently have version 4.0.
    Since the NEW version has been installed, I've receive an update notice for a critical update several times. Each time I select to apply that update the dialog display never apply any update, it looks to be in a processing state but never completes. Of late I've had 2 unexpected issues surface. (1) a Flash Player stopped flashing, an "player stopped" message appeared, "send error report" and a reload player message was included. (2) I just received a error message > 400 "Bad Request" when the browser first opened. This has never happened before.

    It is a Remote Desktop Client Update 3.7.1
    Thank you for answering. I apologize it has taken me so long to get back in here.
    I just realized that I wrote that I installed from app store originally, but I must correct that statement. I never paid for the app so it must have come preinstalled on my 2011 iMac. I was confused since the update is through the store so I assumed I downloaded it. Sorry for any miscommunication.
    So to be clear, even though I have never remotely administered / accessed my computer and I no longer have ARD on my computer, it is normal to have the client update appear in my App Store. Is that correct?
    I appreciate your assistance.

    I think the problem is that the iPod got set to Manually manage music and videos.  It needs to be set up for automatic syncing again.  Just unchecking that Manually manage music and videos setting does not do it.
    In iTunes 12, select the iPod in iTunes (using the device button), so that you see the iPod's "management" screen.  In the sidebar (along left side of screen), there are two headings (Settings and On My Device).  Under Settings, click on Music.  To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box at the top for Sync Music.  That turns ON automatic syncing for music.  Below that, choose the option to sync Entire music library (assuming your music library fits completely on your iPod).  Otherwise, you can choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres and make your selections below.  Then click Apply.
