without a battery in what?
You will have to keep presssing the power button every so often whist on charger until the red light stays on. Got a few hours to spare? like whilst watching TV?  
Check out the other solutions in the sticky thread, start around page 60.

  • I download tv shows but can only see them in itunes when connected to the internet and periodically all tv shows disappear

    I purchased a tv series and downloaded it (several hours) but i can only play it while connected to the internet, I assume it is somewhere in the cloud. What ever happened to buy it download it and it stays on the hard drive? The other day 8 tv series and 7 movies that i had previously purchaed had disappeared from itunes.

    Hi smonkey123,
    There are several ways you can try syncing your iPod to the music in iTunes on your new computer. They are detailed in this article -

  • Fire fox 5 not working on computer. Home page comes up and then nothing else.

    Ever since I downloaded the updated Firefox version #5, I am unable to access the internet. The homepage for Firefox comes up but when I type in a web address, it says the page cannnot be displayed. I tried re downloading fire fox 5 and still same problem. How can I get the older version back or fix this problem! Internet Explorer works but is slow and I prefer Firefox.

    possibly a Firewall problem

  • HT5137 Has anyone ever had just the apple logo come up and then nothing else? I've tried resetting but no go.

    I was updating to ios7 and my iPad froze. I tried the restart sequence but nothing.

    Keep us updated with what happens after letting the battery fully drain.
    If it still remains stuck at the Apple logo, try manually placing and connecting the device to iTunes in disk mode.

  • WRE54G Disconnects; Red Light Comes Back On Hours After Seeing 2 Blue Lights

    Does anyone have a fix for this problem? My WRE54G shows 2 blue lights, works fine, but within a few hours it disconnects and one red light shows. This forces me to unplug and then plug back in the WRE54G, and reboot my computer.
    What is causing this intermittant failure?  How do I eliminate this?

    Since I did not have any responses to my query, I engaged a Linksys tech in an email chat session last Friday afternoon to have a go at the problem. Essentially he walked me through the usual diagnostics, device firmware version levels, etc., and I would be happy to send you a copy of that session if you think it would be of help to you (just agree to ignore my typo's!).
    For reference, I am running the following configuration:
    - Two Dell PC's each running XP with all current patches applied.
    - Full Linksys wireless network with their WRT54GL, V1.1 router, the WRE54G range expander, a WPSM5G USB print server (connected to a Brother MFC 820CW printer), and an SB5120 Motorola cable modem.
    - All Linksys devices are at current firmware levels.
    - Secured network (WPA-Personal):
    After the chat session, I made the following changes:
    - Re-installed the expander firmware...just in case (my idea).
    - Found my remote PC set to work on wireless "B" or "G" and changed it to match my router on "G" only (this was my error as I intended to run "G" only throughout).
    - Changed the router and expander from channel 6 to channel 11 (the tech recommended that I "try" channel 1 or 11).
    So far (knock on wood), my expander has remained "on" (2 blue lights) even through a short commercial power failure this afternoon).
    Hope this helps a bit...best of luck!     

  • Playbook won't run on battery. Only runs when connected to charger.

    My playbook battery shows 100% charge, but immediately shuts off when I unplug the charger.  When I plug it in it will boot up after red light comes on then flashing green fifteen times and work properly,  until I disconnect the playbook charger.  I also cannot connect it to my computer anymore.
    Unable to find a solution to this exact problem.  Any suggestions are appreciated. 

    First I would like you to do a Back Up of your PlayBook using your computer and BlackBerry Desktop Software.
    This can be downloaded for free from http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
    After the Back Up is complete I need you to unplug your PlayBook and then push and hold down the Power Button until the unit Force Powers Off.
    Now, while Desktop Software is still open on your computer and the PlayBook Powered Off, Connect the PlayBook to your computer.
    You should see and error screen from Desktop Software pop up that has the options to Retry, Update, or Cancel.
    QUICKLY choose the Update option.
    This will erase all the information off of your PlayBook and Re-Write the Software back onto it. Once it's complete your PlayBook will need to go back through the setup wizard, and you can then perform a restore using Desktop Software to return your information. The only thing that won't come back after the restore are the apps that you downloaded from App World but they can be easily Re-Installed using the My World feature in App World.

  • Won't boot only red light flashing

    My BB Z10 unable to boot or charge once the battery all used up.
    When I plug to wall or PC, only red light flashing.
    Sent for repair twice, just return with a full charged battery device.
    Once I used all the battery it won't charge.
    I have to recharge the battery before it's all gone,
    Or you have to follow the steps to reinstall the OS make it charge again.
    Does it make sense? Will you accept that?
    Means if I did not charge my Z10 before battery all gone, I have to do the OS recovery and ALL THE DATA GONE.

    Hey panda1111,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Follow the steps below to try and bring the BlackBerry Z10 back to life:
    Ensure that BlackBerry Link is installed on the PC or Mac OS
    Ensure the computer has an internet connection.
    Launch the BlackBerry Link Software.
    Note: A backup of the BlackBerry device should be tried before a reload.
    Turn off the BlackBerry device. Make sure there are no flashing LEDs and that the LCD is not still being lit by the backlight. If there are any flashing LEDs, hold the power button for 15 seconds until the LEDs stop.
    Connect the BlackBerry device to the computer.
    When prompted with Cannot communicate with device, click Restore and then click yes allow the update to be downloaded and installed on the BlackBerry device.
    If the restore button is not seen press the vertical dots in the lower right corner of BlackBerry Link and select disconnected device.  Highlight the disconnected device you are working with and attempt steps 4 to 6 again.
    If the issue still persists, then I suggest contacting your network service provider for repair options. 
    Let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • After installing an update I am no longer able to hear sound out of my speakers. A red light comes on where the headphone jack is. I have already attempted to trip to switch with a wooden toothpick in the headphone jack but have not had luck.

    after installing an update I am no longer able to hear sound out of my speakers. A red light comes on where the headphone jack is. I have already attempted to trip to switch with a wooden toothpick in the headphone jack but have not had luck.

    Have you gone into system prefs nad made sure that the headphone port is set to audio out. And not audio in.
    Also make sure that you are selecting built in speakers for your audio output.
    If that does not fix it try doing a Pram reset.
    Shut your mac down.
    Press the startup button.
    Hold down the following keys. Command Option P and R. Wait till you hear the chime 2 times. Then let go. See if that fixes it.

    I'm not sure if the Get Album Artwork feature finds and "adds" artwork to WAV files, but if it does work, the difference is that getting artwork from the Store doesn't embed the artwork into your song file (which is what happens when you manually copy and paste artwork to the file). WAV files do not support embedded artwork.

  • When I power up my 2008 Mac Pro I get the "welcome", chime, fan goes on, a light goes on on my Apple monitor and then nothing - black screen.  Whats going on?

    When I power up my 2008 Mac Pro I get the "welcome chime", fan comes on, a light comes on on my Apple moniter and then nothing - black screen. What,s going on?

    what you describe as the "welcome chime" is the indicator that your Mac has passed the Power-On Self test, and if a suitable source of software can be found, booting is likely.
    If the screen stays dark, the most likely explanation is a graphics card failure. But it could also be caused by a backlight failure in the LCD, so be sure you try shining a bright light at the screen to be check whether the picture is there, but just not illuminated.
    Graphics card failure will end the boot-up process in some cases, and not have an impact in others. Two external indications you can use when your display is not working are: The Caps Lock key, which is under the control of Mac OS X, and the Control-Eject dialog box shown below. Note that the default is Shutdown, so a Mac that shuts down in response to Control-Eject followed by Return is working fine.

    Sorry genius.....but if the Recovery disk shows up that means the disk cable isn't bad.  Could be he did have a screwed up HDD and when he put the NEW HDD in (after putting the OS on it via USB) the computer didn't reconize it and therefore didn't boot the OS.  Just maybe right genius?  Don't rush to criticize someone's recommendations until you realize other possibilities.  (I did say "if it does")
