My hard disk is really slow and one of my USB ports doesn't function as normal, are those conditions included in apple repair policy?

My 2.5 year old MacBook Pro is still within in the valid period of apple care protection plan. My hard disk is now unbelievably slow, so can I change one from appl for free? And one USB port isn't working well either. Thanks

Since you still have AppleCare, you can certainly take your machine in for diagnosis and see what the results are. Your disk may or may not be going bad - it may be loaded down with third-party software or it may be on the brink of failure. If the latter, I'm sure that it will be replaced gratis.
And if you have a USB port that isn't working, that should be repaired under AppleCare, too: even if it means replacing the entire logic board.
Make an appointment with the folks at the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.
Good luck,
Clinton

I updated to 10.4.7 and now my left USB port doesn't work

Hi all,
I ran Software Update just a second ago, installing an update to MacOS (PowerPC), ITunes, and QuickTime. After the install and the restart, my left USB port is no longer working. It was working immediately before the install.
I have verified that the peripheral that was not working in the left port works just fine in the right one. I have also confirmed that a peripheral that was working previously in the right USB port doesn't work when attached to the left one.
Therefor, I am led to believe that the problem lies in the left USB port. The only thing that has changed is the updater which ran moments ago, and again, the left USB port was working just fine prior to the install.
Has anybody else experienced this problem and knows of a fix/patch/anything I can do?

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
I would reset your power management unit, then install the combo 10.4.7 update. Recently, there have been issues with updates through the software update function.

My ipod touch's imessage is being really slow and half of the time it doesn't work! Even my house wifi works! I tried everything possible. However is there anyway to fix it?

;

If the iPod is working normally except for the Home button, depressing the Power button will turn it on.
Next connecting to charging source will turn it on.
If connected to a computer and iTunes sees it you can backup the iPod and restore another iOS device from that backup.

Io6 update lost Youtube in my iPad and is really slow and Facebook is slow and don't what to upload photo

io6 update lost Youtube in my iPad and is really slow and Facebook is slow and don't what to upload photo the iPad is slow to.

Youtube is no longer integrated with iOS. You can download the app fromt he app store.. it's designed for iPhone... but states that it works with iPad.
As for running slow... trying holding down the power and home button at the same time for 10 seconds to do a hard reset.
Also.. if you double tap your home button it will bring up a small window across the bottom of your screen... this is called the multitasker.
Hold your finger one of the apps til they jiggle... then tap the red minus button to kill the app. If you kill them all this should help your ipad run alot faster.
Good luck

My iPad is running really slow, and I can't connect to my iTunes account or App Store ,keeps saying can't connect to server ,but have another iPad in house and it's working fine

My ipad is running really slow, and it will not let me connect to iTunes or App Store, but have another iPad in house which is working fine I,please help

Try a hard reset by pressing the Home button and Wake / Sleep button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen.
This does not lose any data on your iPad.

Is there any way that I can get back my iPhoto? After having hard disk replaced (no backup) and the operating system has been updated to Lion (no disc) I am wondering if iPhoto can be reinstalled with my Leopard discs?

As Niel pointed out, yes. The disk probably will look like the MBP disk (4) in this screenshot;

Photoshop Elements 12 runs really slow and is almost unusable.

Photoshop (and Premiere) Elements 12 runs really slow and is almost unusable.
All other high end software works perfectly including 3D rendering software.
27" iMac mid 2011.
16gb of RAM.
Over 100gb free hdd space.
Radeon HD card 2GB.
3.4 GHz Intel Core i7.
I have tested on tiny low quality images as well.
I bought this with the bundled Premiere Elements which is also unusable even with the smallest and lowest quality video file.
iMovie works fine as does other video editing software. I ONLY have an issue with Photoshop and Premiere Elements 12.
Mavericks 10.9.3
Elements 12.1

After the latest update, Firefox is much better. Using it again.

Finder Preferences, hard disks cd's dvds, and ipods

hello,
I am a little confused at this. In finder preferences under the general tab tere is a menu "show these items on the desktop" and selection is
-hard disks
-cd,s dvds, and ipods
-connected servers
i have selected Hard disks, why isn't my external drive showing up? It actually will show up if I have selected cds dvds and ipods....just a little weird
i was wondering if anyone had any solutions. thanks.

The labelling for the second item isn't correct; what it actually does is to show or hide removable disks, which include external hard drives. Changing this setting alters the value of the ShowRemovableMediaOnDesktop key in the Finder's preferences.
