No firmware update before install of 10.2.4, ex. Screen won't Work.. HELP
I screwed up and didn't upgrade the firmware, now I have a pale blue screen that won't show up on the external monitor that I connected...I have been following the tips on Giles Kennedy's firmware problem solver page, but I am stuck. The local apple store wants to charge me $150 to even look at it...I need ideas!!!
Sorry, but this forum is for questions about the new Intel-based iMac Core Duo, so it's not likely you'll get a quick or accurate answer here. Try asking in the iMac (CRT) forum instead. Search there for "firmware" first and you may find the answer already covered in a previous thread.
Hope this helps.

While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen and when i press the power button i hear the noise that it would make if it was going to start up. But i only see black.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.
I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.
Seems a common problem.
What OS are you using, Windows 8 64 bit or something? Win 8 has an embedded Flash Player on it, and I have been told here that if this is the case, installing a new version of Flash Player is not necessary, but Fire Fox needs the plug in. They came out with a Flash Player plug in for use with Fire Fox that includes a debugger, but I have not tried it yet. (see below).
I have tried installing Flash Player 11.8.800.994 and 11.7.70.224...... and all crash. I think maybe some anti virus software needs to be disabled to allow installation, or the anti virus thinks its malware. I am also not sure if I need to also install Shockwave Flash for the whole thing to work?
Not sure the following will help and I am about to try it because I am going round in circles, too.
If 11.7 extended support release works for you, would you please update your success by adding a reply at the bottom of your original post, and let us know what you did that worked?
Good luck!
Announcement: Attention: Please read for important changes to Flash Player 10.3
Hide Details
Beginning July 9th, 2013 we will be updating the version of our "extended support release" from Flash Player 10.3 to Flash Player 11.7 for Mac and Windows. To continue to stay current with all available security updates you will need to install the 11.7 extended support release or update to the most recent available release (11.8, etc.) For full details, please see this blog post:
Extended Support Release Updated to Flash Player 11.7

IOS7 installed OK to my iPhone 4S and worked OK for a while but I have somehow managed to completely jam my iPhone 4s. The touch screen won't work except for up and down gestures (some of the time). I can't make or answer calls, I can't even power if off. I can't access the hardward ID which Apple support seems to require for Chat.
It might have happened when I was accessing my camera bypassing the lock screen!
All I know is that the thing is now useless and it looks like I will have to wait for the battery to run down to see if powering it back up afterwards will solve the problem.I have since discovered the "hold down home key and power button" together for a few seconds and this seems to have worked .... phew!

My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!
It's a long running glitch, as the hundreds of threads on this topic demonstrate.
You can wait it out and wait for Apple to fix the servers or you can go into your purchased tab and manually download each update (you'll find the app icons with little update banners on them.
Alternatively, if you sync with a computer, you can use the iTunes on your computer to download the updates then sync them onto your device. -
I have updated my Imac to Mavericks and now my parallells won't work and I have reinstalled as per the instructions. Please help as all my data is on a hardrive that is formatted for PC.
Yes I just discovered that this morning but I have purchased another external harddrive and formatted it for both and am in the process of transferring the files across it and then I will erase the old harddrive and reformat it so I can use it.
I have learnt to format harddrives from this experience but am happy to see the back of parallells.
Thank you for your help though it is much appreciated. -
I'm installing my CS6 download, and my Serial# won't work
It tells me that it's a valid serial number but not for any products I have on my system.
I just reinstalled Windows 7 on my laptop and am reinstalling my programs. I'm having all kinds of trouble with the Adobe CS stuff. I have the CS 5.5 DVD and downloaded my CS 6 upgrade, and I have had to install trial versions because the serial number won't work.If you have trial versions installed, your serial number can be used to convert them to fully activated versions

whats the format on the external HD?
verify same on another Mac, its likely a dead SATA card inside the external enclosure.
One assumes you arent referring to a 2012 Air with a Toshiba SSD, since the Air contains no hard drives, only a SSD.
2013 Air use Sandisk or Samsung SSD. -
I am attempting to play games at Shockwave.com and they won't open. I have updated Adobe Flashplayer and Shockwave player, but they still won't work. What else do I need to do to get them to work?
Hi, If your Anti-Virus has found malware, then what are their instructions on removing it? Also what are the names of the Malware and the location that it was found? Look in the log that your Anti-Virus should have to find this info.
Malware can effect not only Flash Player, but depending on what type it is other programs on your computer/system.
Is your system a 64bit? I understand you are using the 32bit browser. If you didn't find anything in the system32 location then you would have the Flash files in the SysWOW64 location.
If you don't have the Shockwave Flash Object in the manage addons, that is why Flash Player is not working.
Thanks,

Upgrade to tiger, firmware update before
Hi
I bought a tiger full version, and while I was expecting just to slot the disk in and wait, the read me files tells me I should check for firmware upgrade before.
Ooops. So I had a look at all the files on support/download.html, but really not sure what I need to install. I though it was all automatic through sofware update??
I have a 2 years old PB, up to date with 10.3.9.
This is the Model
These are the specs.from system profiler.
Machine Model: PowerBook5,6
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.5 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 768 MB
Bus Speed: 167 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.9.1f3
Do I need to upgrade my firmware, before doing my os upgrade?
Many thanks
PB 15 1.5ghz 80G 768Mb combo Mac OS X (10.3.9)
PB 15 1.5ghz 80G 768Mb combo Mac OS X (10.3.9)it all went well.
I am a happy bunny
From a retail version, one screen has an option button and I chosen upgrade rather than archive, simply because I am running out of space of the hd.
I still have all my files (itune and iphoto included), all my application. So that was just an 1h1/2 of worries.
Thank you all for your help.
I was so scared following some previous install that didn't go well with the install's disk supplied with the purchase of the pb. -
Before i make update the auto brightness was working properly
The screen was very low bright in the dark automatically and high bright in light
But now after i made update it is nit working
I am surprised that apple system is not stable
Please support
<Email Edited By Host>This is a user to user support forum and not Apple employees so it is best to not post your email address in an open discussion group.
Have you tried a reboot of the iPhone? Hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.
My iPhone went to full brightness all the time after updating to iOS 6.1.3. A reboot seems to have helped make it work as it should. Also check Settings > Brightness and Wallpaper and see how it is set, reduce the brightness level it is too bright for you. -
'''My Yahoo Toolbar has disappeared'. I tried re-installing it several times but it just won't appear in the Toolbar space. I looked in the Toolbar view and it is checked. I even tried unchecking and re-checking the Yahoo Toolbar view. No luck. Please help. I use that toolbar constantly.''
Could be. They're in the midst of updating their servers at the moment so expect the odd mishap now and again.
Oh, and could you click the "Solved" button so that it takes this thread out of the loop?
Thanks. -

I have just updated my Mac 10 version 10.8.5 and now it is saying that the App Store won't work with this version. Itunes also won't open as this obviously hasn't updated properly either.
Has anyone else had this problem? I don't seem to be able to reinstall the App Store either?Try the following....
