My MacBoook is frozen and Command/Option?escapedoesn't work. I tried turning it off manually, but that doesn't work either. What doyou suggest?
Any external BT keybaord or mouse that can be turned off and break a cycle in that interface? Any external USB device or external monitor that can break a locked-loop on those dvices?
Holding the power button for 10 seconds (maybe more) should hard-stop all (even background) processes. Can leave the system unbottable if stopped at wrong point, so is a last resort.

Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?
Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

Updated to 10.4.9 and now weather widget doesn't work-what to do?
Hello-
Just updated to 10.4.9 tonight and for the first time since I bought this computer in August, the weather widget doesn't work.
Would anyone happen to know what I could do to get this to work. I am connected to the internet, I can access the accuweather.com that I think this widget connects to, I restarted and reset PRAM (not even sure if that has anything to do with it).
I just don't even know where to go from here to troubleshoot. Any suggestions would be appreciated... Thanks.Just for the record... There is quite a bit of discussion about widgets. I only use the dictionary and iStat. I use WeatherPop in the taskbar, which resides in the taskbar...
It did it again this morning. I let it boot all the way, and then I went into system preferences to find the resolution that the display was using. It was 1400x1050. But there was a second display preferences window open. Basically... The computer was "mirroring" to a second non-existent monitor. I ran through the "detect displays" and it got rid of the second setting.
I've never had a second monitor hooked to the machine, and I've never messed with the display settings, other than to change wallpaper. I'm not sure how or why it turned on, but I think it's off now... Weird that it only did it every now and then.

I Have an iPhone 4s and it won't come on. What do you suggest?
The product name of my device is Apple inc. My storage was a total of 20GB. The number of my phone system is iOS 8.1.2. The problems I've had with this iPhone is, it blanked out then cut back on. Blanked out again, and it wouldn't come back on. I've tried to reset it using the lock & home button, but it didn't come on.
Greetings Whatupcat123,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
You may find the additional troubleshooting tips in this article helpful if your iPhone is not turning on:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
Start with this step:
You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on.
You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device.
If your iPhone turns back on, but then blanks out again unexpectedly, try this next:
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
Best Regards,

How do I access apple app store. The doc icon bounce forever & when the page finally appears, it is just blank?
1. If you haven't already done so since this started, log out and log back in, or restart the computer. Then try again.
2. Otherwise, if you're using "LittleSnitch" or any similar third-party software that blocks outgoing network connections, remove or disable it according to the developer's instructions and test.
3. If possible, connect to a different network and test.
4. There are reports that resetting the PRAM may solve the problem in some cases. I can't confirm. -

my macbook pro is frozen and does not move from loading screen. Can you help?
Call Apple Support and schedule a appointment for a hardware check, or take it into a Apple Store.
We can't help you with that problem.

I have a 2012 macBook Pro 13" and the option "Use audio port for" does not appear at all in the sound menu. why is this? im running mountain Lion 10.8.2
Because line-in has been removed.
It does allow for an Apple headset with mic., but I don't know if it would work with third-party ones.
You'll need to use a Griffin iMic or similar to use line-in via a USB port.
The same goes for the 15" retina, the newest MBA and the new iMac (whenever it finally arrives). -

Here's a pretty discussion regarding wireless printing with this device and a Mac.

I have a similar OfficeJet and it was a multi-step process. (1) Install printer drivers on the machine, (2) Add the printer queue in print & fax, (3) Run the "setup wizard" from the disc for wireless printing. -
