I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.
Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem. Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
Do not proceed until you get that avice. -
My iPad4 switched off on it's own, and when I tried to reboot it, it gets stuck on the apple logo.(or sometimes a small loading whirlwind thingy) What should I do? Thanks
Sorry, I'm here, but I am at work.
If you do not have a backup and iTunes will not let you backup now, unfortunately you will lose everything.
I'm not sure that I understand what you saying about iTunes not nothing the device being plugged in, but I iTunes does not see the device that is one of the reasons that you need to use recovery mode.
If you are running iTunes 11 and you cannot see the iPad under the devices heading because you can't see the sidebar - go to View>Show Sidebar at the top of the screen in iTunes. -
Reset all content and settings to my iPhone, and when it tries to reboot, it freezes up during the rebooting process, any suggestions?

Macbook Pro just ran out of battery, when I tried to boot up it cannot locate the HDD.
So as stated above I mistakenly left my Macbook Pro on and it ran out of battery. When I tried to power it back on again it just goes to the folder and question mark logo. What happened? Did I kill the hard drive ?
Let it charge overnight.

At boot, the hard drive light comes on, the 2 lock lights flash simultanously (A and 1 ) , 2 of the 3 fans come on, then it appears to turn off. It will sit in a loop through the reboot process until the power and the battery have been removed.
Have replaced the drive and the center fan. The replaced fan is new and an HP fan. When I have been able to get it to boot , loaded windows and linux on the new drive.
If it sits long enough and you pray it may reboot. Once I turned it upside down and it rebooted.
Have had the system up and running for hours with no problem, then have to reboot or a shutdown and won't reboot.
Suggestions ?Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -

I have just downloaded Creative cloud and am trying to install on my 2010 MacBook Pro with OS 10.9.3
When I install I am not getting the signon button, just a blue spinning. I saw the signon button blip by once but then it went right to the spinning.
I enabled and am installing as root (found in another article)
I've rebooted the Mac
Nothing is working
It sounds like this is a common issue, what has worked for others?
Thanks
AliThanks for the link
I actually got the spinning error fixed with support last night by deleting the opm.db. Then I tried to launch Photoshop and it just crashes. so I tried the suggestion to log out and back in but that didn't work
then I found another article stating to make sure I had read write permission for my user in Library> Preferences> Adobe
The rights looked ok except for Everyone, so I gave everyone full read/ Write and now I'm back to the spinning blue circle and can't log in.
I'm going in circles here trying to just get started so I looked at the link that you provided and am going through the steps
When I go to https://lm.licenses.adobe.com/ it fails
My hosts file is OK, that link works and shows both logos
I also looked at the hosts file and it doesn't have entries that reference activate.adobe.com (for example, 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com) so there's nothing to delete
Then I got on the chat with support for about 2 hours. He took control of my mac and tried all kinds of stuff. We even went into Safe Mode and tried again. Nothing worked
He then asked me to uninstall CC and then create a new user account on the Mac and install under that account.
I tried that but got the same issue
I'm lost, this shouldn't be this difficult, I'm back to the spinning CC when I launch it -
I purchased the Logitech F310 game controller for my 2011 MacBook Pro. How do I get the driver installed for it. The Disk that came with the controller is a mini disk and will not insert into my laptop.
May not make a difference anyway. The Logitech support site does not show drivers for Mac OS for the F310:
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/gamepad-f310?crid=411
I'd contact their support to find out if there is a Mac driver available, and if they can either give you a web link to get it, e-mail you the software, or snail-mail you a standard-size disk with the drivers. -
I have lightroom 5.7 and a macbook pro 10.9.5. Occasionally when I am editing a photo in the develop module, I suddenly get a "file not found" message and the editing ceases to work. There is no "exclamation" icon below the histogram box in the Library module or on the photo in grid view, and the histogram is gone. What is going on? Trying to find it using the "find missing photos" in the library menu does nothing.

I bought a new MacBook Pro (Mac Os 10.8.4) when conecting my mobile broadband dongle (Huawei E122) the computer does not read it at all. I do not have problems when connecting it to my former computer (PC) and a Mac from last year. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Yes, I did that. They have uppgrades for the dongles, but just untill Mac Os 10.7. Their solution is to buy a new modem from them or getting one for free if I sign a contract for 24 months! So, i think from that side not very helpful.
It is just that I do not want to buy a new modem, when it works in quite recent computers and after having spent money in the new Mac.
But thank you for your reply! -

Hi - I'm trying to sync iBooks on my Macbook Pro with iBooks running on my iPad. I have some pdf's download from the net I want to share between devices and I can't work out how to sync the two devices. Any help please? I'm running Mavericks
Thanks for your help Brij011 - much appreciated. Apologies as I'm a newbie but I've looked at the info for synching and I appear to have all the switches flicked on my iPad. Does the iPad and iBooks only sync in iCloud for purchases as I appear to be doing something wrong. I could sync ok when books was in iTunes but since migrating to Mavericks I think I'm doing something wrong!!
