  • Mac mini can not find the NAS

    In my network I have a Mac mini, AirPort Extreme base station and a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo v2. Everything is connected by cable. The problem is that the Mac mini can not find the NAS. Mac mini is looking for wirelessly connected devices, type TimeCapsule. How do I get my Mac mini to find the NAS and set the NAS as a source of data storage?

    I have a ReadyNAS and use it as a Time Machine destination with no problems, even over WiFi. The ReadyNAS and Mac are both on the same LAN (even though the Mac is on WiFi), please check to see if your WiFi is on a different LAN to the Ethernet side of things, I have my Airport set to bridging mode so both sides of the AirPort count as the same LAN.
    Next you need to check you have actually configured Time Machine in the ReadyNAS, as shipped it is initially turned off. You need to go to the ReadyNAS web management interface (FrontView) and then click on Backup on the left, and then select Time Machine. You also need to make sure Bonjour is enabled for the ReadyNAS, this is accessed by clicking on Services on the left and then selecting Discovery Services, make sure all the Bonjour options are ticked on.

  • HT1420 Feeling really stupid with my new MAC - I can't find the "Store" menu in iTunes as referenced in the support article on how to authorize a computer.  Where is that menu option?  I've looked all over the page, in my account, etc.

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • New MacBook Pro can't find the base station

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro and AirPort Extreme Base Station. My house is wired for Ethernet so I plugged the Airport Exteme into one of the Ethernet outlets and did the set-up using my old iMac G5 over the network. (I had to download the latest software for the AirPort Extreme to the iMac before this would work right.) I finally got to the point where I got a green light on the Base Station, but when I search with the AirPort Utility on the MacBook Pro it can't find it, even when it is physically only 3 feet away. I then plugged the MacBook Pro into the AirPort Extreme with an Ethernet cable and it saw it - no problem. I then downloaded all the software updates to the MacBook Pro, restarted, unplugged the Ethernet and tried again. The AirPort Utility still can't find the Base Station. I am running 10.4.10 on both machines. I have 10.5, but don't plan un updating until I get this to work. I spent about half an hour listening to Muzak while trying to get to support and finally gave up. Any suggestions?

  • My mac can't detect the built in speakers randomly anymore.

    Here is the story: I turn on my mac this morning as it starts up normally and plays its startup sound through the built-in speakers.  Then I go to Garageband and want to finish this mix I was working on 2 days ago.  But the sound in the status bar was grayed out: and so sound would come out.  But there was nothing plugged in.  So I went to sound preference pane in System Preferences and this is what it said: If you need any additional pictures or screenshots, respond I will gladly post them.  You can talk to me in an advanced way because I have another Apple ID that is linked to an Apple Dev. account.
    Here are more specs of my MacBook Pro.It is the MacBook Pro before the ones that are out now.  But it was custom configured to 8GB RAM and i7 & Anti-glare screen.

  • My MacBook Pro can't find the FireWire port

    My MacBook Pro (OSX 10.6.8) can not find the FireWire port. Until now there hasn't been any problems using the FireWire, but now it just deny any knowledge of it, so to speak.
    The audio device lights up when I connect it to the MBP (yes, I did connect it when in off-mode), so it seems to work in a way.
    Does anyone recognize this problem and knows how to solve it?

  • On a Mac where can I find the Thunderbird library?

    I am trying to move my mailboxes to Apple Mail and I can't find the Thunderbird library. Where can I find the file?

    Mail is probably looking for the profile folder, or one of its subfolders, and the easiest way to find it is from Help (or AppMenu/Help)/Troubleshooting Information, click Show Folder to open it in Finder.

  • Macbook pro can't find the audio device

    Lately I have been having trouble with the audio. The sound doesn't work on the Macbook, and it can't seem to find any devices!
    I tried plugging in headphones, but nothing helped.
    In the time leading up to this fault, the sound in the mini jack was very poor, and sounded really bad.
    When I plug my TV to the computer, by HDMI, I works fine. Even with sound.
    Any suggestions?
    Oh, and I can't adjust the sound - it simply tells me that there is no device.

    I've tried that, and I can't choose anything.
    As I said, it can't find any devices. Tried to Reset SMC and PRAM - non helped

  • Mac Pro can't find hard drive with Snow Leopard installed on

    Hello there,
    I have a three harddrive setup.
    Harddrive 1 is in bay 1 and has two partitions.
    1: For system and apps
    2: For Documents and stuff
    Hard drive 2+3 are in Bay 2+3 and are combined to a RAID 0 drive.
    Some time ago I installed Leopard and the brand new an formatted hard drive.
    It happened that it always took 2 start ups to run Leopard because always on the first time it didn t find the system on hard drive one. Pushing the 'D' button often helped.
    Of course that was nothing to work with, although I at least could get some work done, once I loaded Leopard successfully.
    So I tried Disk Utility, fsck without success.
    I also tried the way of using fdisk to mark the partion as active, which only resulted in now not being able to boot at all.
    Booting from DVD I also tried choosing my Leopard install on my hard drive as boot device (it has always shown up here) but still without success.
    I am afraid things are quite messed up, since there were a few things happening at one time, which I am not overly happy about now. (Installing new RAM, installing SNOW LEOPARD on the new harddrive 1 in bay one, having still the RAID with LEOPARD on in bays 2+3).
    I am already certain to do a fresh and complete reinstall of the system, I have my backup, but still there is some iTunes music and a few documents I haven't backed up yet, which I'd rather would not like to lose...
    Put it short:
    What could I do to get my system running at least once?
    Thanks a lot,
    max.

    After some research I found out about the nice TargetDiskMode which I used to save all my important data with my MacBook.

  • My MacBook Pro can't find the display brand and resolution

    Hello everybody,
    I have a MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.7 13" Early 2011.
    I use and external display Philips 220C1SW
    Recently my mac won't recognize the Philips brand anymore and use instead a generic display resolution, which is wrong.
    Does anybody had the same issue?
    Looking forward your answers
    Mat

    Hello le-mat
    Check out the article below for resolving issues when connecting to an external display. I would start with resetting the NVRAM and SMC as they will resolve most display resolution and power issues.

  • My bookmarks and my history don't save - I have a Mac and can't find the solution for Mac

    The same problem I've seen in other forums, but the solution is always for PC and not Mac. My bookmarks don't save (or when I try to save a new one in the toolbar, everything that comes after it disappears) and history just doesn't work.
    I am exceptionally computer illiterate. I really need some thorough step-by-step instructions on how to fix this.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
