It depends on what keyboard you have, if not than their May be a problem with your device

Basics from the user guide have always been, and still remain, restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

Whenever I try to use my macbook, it will work for about 10 min. then the screen will go black, the computer will not respond to my commands, and I have to restart it. Can anyone tell me what's going on, and how to fix it? Thank you!!!

Hello everyone, like most people on this site, I am having difficulties understanding and fixing my Macbook Pro. About a month ago my computer screen went black, the computer was unresponsive, and it started making a beeping noise. I restarted the computer, and it seemed to have fixed itself. 6 days ago, I put my laptop into it's case with some papers, went home (about 30 min. after putting laptop into case), and opened my bag. My computer's fans were on, the computer was really hot, and when I opened the computer, the screen was black and unresponsive. I turned it off, let it cool down, turned it back on, started to stream a video on Hulu, and about ten minutes after, the screen went black again and the computer was unresponsive. Now everytime I turn it on after about ten to fifteen minutes the screen will go black, the computer will become unresponsive, and I have to shut it off. The weird thing though is that everytime I restart my computer, when I reopen my account, my computer acts as if nothing has happened, and everything I had opened or unsaved is still there without autosave saving the documents.The screen also goes black and the computer becomes unresposive when I move the computer around. I get a lot of pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet. I don't know if one of those pop-up websites might have given me a virus or may be the cause of this problem. I don't now what is wrong with my computer or how to fix it, but if anyone has any advice, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!! Thank you very much!!!
-- Sincerely, A very confused, scared, and hopless Macbok Owner

To get rid of "pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet", click on Safari in the Menu bar, and select Preferences. Next select Extensions. Delete all of them. Restart Safari.
The first step in addressing the black screen is an SMC reset.
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

I updated my MAC to Mavericks and purchased iPhoto 9.5. Installed new version of iPhoto and installed using iPhoto Library Upgrade as directed. Each time I try open iPhoto I receive the same message.

I updated my MAC to Mavericks and purchased iPhoto 9.5. Installed iPhoto; however when I try to open iPhoto I receive The folling, "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first must be prepared. To prepare use iPhoto Library Upgrade". I have have downloaded and installed the upgrader, with no success.
I need to add that I am a senior and am not as computer savey as I should be. Therefore, i really need step by step help.

After you download the upgrader, you will need to go to your Applications folder and find the Utilities folder.
In there will be the iPhoto Library Upgrader (version 1.1). Open the application and follow the instructions. Should get you going.

Earth with USB & message that phone will work for emergency use only

I had problems with poor reception and people telling me that I kept cutting in and out, or that I sounded like I was talking underwater. Happened only after I upgraded my 16g 2g from 1.1.4 to 2.1. Husband has a 3g on 2.1 and has no problems, so area and external factors were not the cause. I took it in to an Apple Genius. He extracted the software, which he believed was somehow corrupted, and reinstalled it. I set it up as a new phone and have not had that problem since.
Only problem I am still having is that every once in a while when I turn my phone off, when I turn it back on I get the planet & USB cord with the chilling screen that my phone will work for emergency use only. A hard reset will return it to a normally functioning phone. Anyone else out there experiencing this? (This happened even after the Apple Genius extracted & reinstalled 2.1.) Anyone know what causes this?

Hey Ann,
Are you using the iPhone with any accessories? Does this seem to happen after being used with the accessory?
When the iPhone was restored, was it restored from backup or setup as a new iPhone? You can try restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new phone, if you haven't already. From there you can test it without any accessories.
If it was already restored and setup as a new phone and is not being used with any accessories, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Just call AppleCare or make another reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple store take a look at it.

Tried to drag a progam to the trash but each time I did a window pops up and say that i cant moved it to the trash as the application is open.. the program i wish to uninstal is a pre-paid mobile broad band a

I tried to drag the program i wanted to uninstal to the trash but each time i try a window pops up and tells me i cant as the application is open and i know it,s not??? the program i want to uninstal is a pre paid mobile broad band, thank you Marie
I have tried going to the program it self but no where can i find how to uninstal it . I,m getting very frustrated with this C.P as at least with windows you went straight to the control panel and went to ADD/Remove, and clicked onto the program you wanted gone and clicked on it and it uninstaled . GRRR

I assume that the app didn't come with an uninstaller application/script?
If you definitely want to trash it have a look in Activity Monitor and your Login items, as there may be something running in the background that is preventing it being trashed.
System Preferences>Users & Groups (or Accounts depending on OS), Login items tab and delete anything that pertains to the app you want gone.
Next, Utilities Folder>Activity Monitor, have a look to see if there is anything running with the name of the awkward app. Select it and click on the the big red 'quit process' button. Now try and trash it.
If you are still having trouble you could try downloading the free AppCleaner:

Is there such a modle of iPhone 4S, that will work for the following?

I have read a couple discussions here, yet 99% of them are talking about using Verizon / Sprint's iPhone 4S on AT&T, or another way. I'm not finding an answer of my simple question, that is, I want to get an iPhone 4S, which works for CDMA (if not both, at least Verizon), AT&T, T-Mobile, and GSM outside the US.
What would be the right way to get one? I ran into problem because I know:
- An iP4S obtinaed from CDMA (Verizon / Sprint) could be SIM unlocked but only works for GSM carrier outside the US. WIll not work for AT&T or T-Mobile.
- An iP4S purchased contract-free will work for AT&T, T-Mobile, and GSM outside the US, but not CDMA.
- An iP4S obtinaed from AT&T, works in AT&T only, the SIM and CDMA cannot be unlocked.

Thanks for you all above to clarify my question. One last question here.
Taking GSM out of the discussion, can a Verizon iPhone 4S be used in Sprint? Or if I switch from Verizon to Sprint, I simply have to sell my Verizon iPhone 4S and buy another 4S under Sprint, even they are mechanically identical and the only difference is how software profile is applied?

I can't play youtube videos. I will play for about 12 seconds, then stop, and restart over again. I tried youtube on IE and it works there. What do you suggest I do?

This problem can be solved selecting manually the video resolution.

I have an older Power Mac G5 Quad, and my video card just went out. I am trying to find a video card that will work for my Power Mac. I have duel screens but I can't seem to find the appropriate video card

I have an older Power Mac G5 Quad, and my video card just went out. I am trying to find a video card that will work for my Power Mac. I have duel screens but I can't seem to find the appropriate video card. The serial number on my computer is: RM620603R6W. Apple won't help me because the computer is older than suggested. Please give me the exact video card that will work best for my computer.

Hi Mike, make sure the card has Mac ROM, or is a PC card with Mac ROMs flashed to it...
G5 PCIe options are listed here:

Have you held the menu and left arrow together for 6 secs ? (I think you have from what you say).
Also try unpowering and restarting AppleTV.
