My iMac doesn't wake up when I hit the wireless keyboard

I leave my imac on all the time, I have a wireless bluetooth keyboard and sometimes when I hit the keyboard my imac doesn't wake up. Is this an issue that anyone else has delt with? Is it a keyboard issue or a computer issue?

Weak battery?
Apple keyboard or third party? All firmware up to date?

    Down load fron the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it.  It will show you all of your files and the respective sizes.
    In addition, click on your HDD icon in the upper right hand corner of your desk top with COMMAND I (I as in the letter i).  What does it say about the space used and available.

  • "iPhone 5" sometimes doesn't wake up when pressing on the start or power buttons

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm facing a little problem with my new iPhone 5.
    When it goes into sleep, sometimes doesn't wake up after pressing on the start or power buttons, and I have to wait 5 to 15 seconds until it is ON again.
    Do you have any idea Why is that?
    Regards,
    William

    Hi William,

  • Firefox doesn't retry downloads when I hit the retry button.

    i will be downloading something and it will freeze and stop downloading so i hit pause and then when i hit resume it comes with a message saying the path is unavailable or something and ends the download. then when i hit the retry button to retry the download it just goes through a quick scan and ends it right there with a partially downloaded file that nothing can be done to.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == i was downloading a video/part file

    There is something you can try when this happens..
    Go to your downloads folder location. If the download has failed, Firefox may have created a .part file. If your file is ''largefile.exe'', look out for ''largefile.exe.part''.
    Now basically all you have to do is go to the downloads page and start downloading your file again. This time pause the download, go to your downloads folder.
    Rename "largefile.exe" to "oldlargefile.exe".
    Rename "largefile.exe.part" to "largefile.exe" obviously replacing the name with your own file.
    Now resume your download. It should continue from where it left off.

  • Will the Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse work with my iMac G5?

    My Dad just sent me his old iMac G5 17". and I was wondering if the Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse will work with it!? I don't really have a place to put the computer.. so I was hoping to get the wireless mouse and keyboard so I don't have to be connected to the computer.

    I have the most recent (2 AA batteries, not 3) wireless keyboard and magic mouse running on a PowerMac G5. Your iMac G5 has the same class of processor, which isn't Intel. My Mac has built-in bluetooth support, which is what these products use. I'm unsure if your iMac has bluetooth built-in or not, but if it doesn't, you can purchase the Belkin bluetooth USB dongle. That has been widely reported to work just fine within OSX.
    Anyway, yes, your iMac G5 can run the wireless keyboard and mouse. You just might have to work a little for it.
    Good luck!

    How can I activate an old version of Photoshop that I've loaded on my new tablet? The web activation doesn't work, and when I call the number, it says it's not being used anymore. Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated. HELP?  I really need to continue using this product for my home business.It works fine not activated but the threat is that it will stop working in 13 more days if I don't get it activated, and none of the activation methods they list seem to work.

    The new serial number is to the right of your chosen download.

    I saved docs from a iMac to a flashdrive but when I plug the flashdrive into an iBookG4 and try to open the docs on the flashdrive, I get this message: Doc 2 cannot be opened. The required index.xml file is missing. Does this mean that I can't use the info on the flashdrive with the iBookG4 or can I do something to get the required index.xml file?

  • My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. Please help.

    My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. In the past when I have updated successfully, the spinning circle would show me an indicator of time left on the update. I no longer have this Indicator. The circle just spins and times out and nothing happens. I've reset the iPad in the settings menu, reset the router, logged in and out of Apple id, powered ithe iPad off and on, and tried a couple other "fixes" that I've read online. So far no luck. AAny help would be greatly appreciated. Much thanks!

    How much free space do you have? If it is low, installers may not be able to run properly.

  • The download function is not working....!! When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads...

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...

  • My airport express seems to be broken -- light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset".  Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow.

    AX light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset".  Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow. I assume this is a goner?

    Unfortunately, based on your description, I would have to second that your Express is a "goner." However, before giving up on the unit, be sure that you attempt a "factory default" reset at least 3x just to be sure.

    Hi roddy,
    thanks for responding. I read your link, looked at my settings and they were all correct. I tried to do a republish and got this message: The requested URL /childrenandcaring/index.html was not found on this server.
    When I type the address in the address bar, I go to the site and the page says: This is the new site childrenandcaring.com
    Any other ideas?

  • Konsole doesn't view well when I zoom the window of konsole

    I'm using KDE 4.8.4.Konsole can maximize / restore well.But it doesn't zoom well.When I zoom the window,konsole cannot view well.Sometimes it is white,or transparent.
    But when I change the window decorations of kwin to others like qtcurve.It works well.When the window decorations is Oxygen.It doesn't work well.
    I'm using catalyst,konsole 2.8.4.What should I do?Why does it happen?
    Sorry,I can't use English well.

    Sorry for my late update:
    cor-el, thanks for your suggestions, I've just tried with safe mode(by starting FF with "shift" held down), but things still don't work well. However, I did get some findings:
    * In either Safe or normal mode, when only 1 window of multiple tabs: if close window via "X" or "File"->"Exit", then no prompt.
    * In either Safe or normal mode, when 2 windows of multiple tabs:
    * * If close either window via "X", then it shows prompt :-)
    * * If close either window via "File"->"Exit", still no prompt.
    In all, 2 FF windows seem to work well for "X" button.
    I didn't try w/ more windows open, maybe same as 2 windows I guess.
    jscher2000, thanks for your sharing, too. It reminded me that the 2 closing methods are really different.
    Guys, looking fwd to more of your expertise sharing!
