P6-2016 New MoBo but I need to install AHCI drivers for it to work
Hey I just got a new motherboard for a haswell processor and some new ram. The thing that I'm having trouble with is if I try to boot with the new Motherboard CPU and Ram I will get a 0x7 boot error which means that the boot drive isn't being detcted, after hours and hours of forum searching and my own troubleshooting it seems I need to install the AHCI drivers onto the HDD because HP doesn't install them when they ship the systems because thats not what mode Your computers boot in (so I've seen), but that just so happens to be the mode that my new board boots with, and well without those drivers, I'm sure you can figure it out. So here's what I did next I went onto the intel website and got their AHCI drivers but if I try to install them then it will say that my system does not meet the mnimum requirements to install the software. And well without those drivers.... I've just got $400 of new PC parts just laying on my desk.
P.S. I heard you guys will offer a free win 7 copy if I give you a product key or something like that but a clean install is the LAST THING I WANT TO DO!

Need help installing internet drivers for OS Lion
Howdy all! My question is in regards to the download and installation of internet drivers for a 2011 MacBook Pro running Lion. The wi-fi airport works and recognizes available networks, but I am unable to connect to the internet.
Are there any particular sites you might recommend to download internet drivers for this model and OS?
Thank you for your time!acolverson1,
are you also unable to connect to the internet by trying your MacBook Pro at a different site, say, somewhere that offers free wi-fi? Do you have access to a different computer, to see if that different computer would be able to connect to the internet by using the wi-fi that you have at home? It sounds as though you haven’t yet determined where the cause lies yet, whether it’s with your MacBook Pro, your router, or your internet service provider. -
I just got a new computer. I need to install CS6 to my new computer but don't have my serial number and my old computer will not download and install crative cloud! HELP!!!!!!!
In this complicated case, I think it's important that you get your work in.
The Photography Plan includes Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC. Open an account with them and for $10 a month you can be back in business which I think nets you more than $10. It's what I do. You can do this immediately. You get two seats and they can be either Mac or PC.
In your spare time you can sort out the license issue and cancel the plan later on if this is fixed.
If you don't want to go there, then you will have to call Customer Service by phone and hope they can fix this.

I'm a user like yourself and aside from pointing you to Help docs, I have no authority to fix activation issues.
Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product" | CS6, CS5.5, CS5
Find your serial number quickly
Best of luck, whatever you do.

I have an apple developer account to make a new app, but I need to give access to the designer without sharing my payment info or allowing him to have access to my icloud, apps or itunes account. There is some way to have another password?
The designer is usually someone who just handles the user interface portion of the code. The developer would handle core functionality. I assumed you were the developer and the designer was the designer. You are the client and your "designer" is the developer.
Ideally, you should create a business account so that you can add someone to your team. That is the way it is supposed to work. Otherwise, you will have to ask for the final source code so that you can build and submit the app yourself. You should always have the source code regardless. You should always perform the submission under your own account too. Otherwise, it is the developer's app, not yours.
Sharing accounts is against the Apple Developer agreement anyway. The App Store Gold Rush is over. Now it is mostly zombie apps and competing fraudsters. You don't want to give someone access to your iTunes account. You really don't want to give someone access to your bank account either.
The best solution would be to convert your account to a business account. You may be able to have the developer submit the app and then transfer it to you. -

You have to import the video to your computer by connecting the iPad with cable and then using iPhoto if you have a Mac or Windows Explorer or any other camera application that will import photos and videos. Read this for instructions.
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from ... - Support - Apple
Make sure that you backup and sync with iTunes as well, if You have never synced with iTunes before, it might just be easier for you to backup with iCloud. You can restore from the backup when you get the replacement iPad.

I am setting up an iPhone 5. I selected "set up as a new phone" but now need to restore from iTunes back up. How do I access the appropriate screen in the iPhone 5 which I am setting up?

If my iphone 4s was unlocked by AT&T, but I need to use my warranty for a new iphone. Do I need to reunlock the new iphone? or will apple give me an unlocked iphone?
If your phone is officially unlocked, you will get an officially unlocked iPhone if yours is replaced under warranty. Apple maintains a data base of officially unlocked iPhones & can verify whether your phone is officially unlocked or not. To be safe, point this out to the genius bar, if you go to an Apple store or whoever you talk to, if dealing with AppleCare.

H.264 video should be supported by your basic Snow Leopard operating system. The DVCPRO HD family of codecs is part of the Apple "Pro" codecs package which is normally installed as part of a "Pro" video editing suite installer or contemporaneously installed separately as part of one of the newer pro editing apps like FCPX. if you already have one of these pro suites or apps installed or available, then re-install the correct codec package that is missing. If not, you will need to purchase a Pro suite or app to be able to install the required codec package. -
I just bought a newer Nano and I need to upgrade my itunes for a laptop (with Windows) that no longer has the capability to go online. Is there a way to do this?
Hi John,
Thanks for your response, but if you read my first mail, it's the original serial number that I don't have. I bought the original LR as download and have misplaced the serial number. Is there any way to find it???

I have just received a new iphone 5s and need to set the Apple ID with my work email. I used my work email on my personal iphone 4s to set up an icloud account and it will not let me use this email as the Apple ID on my new iphone. As it is a work phone I need to use this email address as my Apple ID. How do I do this?
when you open the app store scroll down to the bottom it will display the apple id currently in use, change it to your normal apple id email

I have a problem. My Apple ID is not my iCloud email, my msn is my Apple ID, but I need to reset the password for my icloud email address because I can't remember what it is. How can do I reset my iCloud emaill password when it's not my Apple ID??
Your iCloud and @icloud.com login ID is an Apple ID. Go to http://appleid.apple.com and sign in with the ID you use to sign into iCloud (you can check this by going to http://www.icloud.com and signing in there).
Click 'Password & Security' in the sidebar and you will be able to change the password.
HOWEVER
Before you do this you must turn off 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' if you have it enabled on any of your devices, otherwise you will land yourself in difficulties. -
Hi guys..!!
I would like to know if someone could help on this:
I just have a HP printer (HP Designjet 100) and for some reason I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers in total 590MB to be able to use my printer in my mountain lion???
If normally the size of my files in the for previous software was more or less 5MB why now i need to install 590?
Some one could help me how to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???
ThanksIf you go to http://support.apple.com/downloads and locate the HP Printer Drivers installer, you will find that it is 473.4 MB (for version 2.11). If you install this, it will install the full set of drivers for every model of HP printer that is supported by the drivers distributed through Apple. The disk space occupied once installed will probably be larger than the download, since the downloaded file is compressed.
On the other hand, if you have an HP printer connected and you use Software Update (or the Update tab in App Store), that should offer you a much smaller set of HP drivers, which are only applicable to your printer (and possibly a few similar ones). These updates are typically only tens of megabytes rather than hundreds of megabytes.
If Software Update doesn't offer you any HP drivers then it either thinks you have the latest drivers installed already, or the printer model is not supported by the drivers available from Apple.
This article lists all of the printer models for which Apple distributes the driver:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
