Problem when turning on my iMac

I just uninstalled windows from boot camp. BUT every time I turn on my mac. It goes to windows and say "no boot disk". I can hold down alt/option key and go to mac os x. BUT I don't want to have to do that because I DON'T HAVE WINDOWS INSTALLED!

Select the Mac OS X system in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.

When turning on my imac, it loads to a blue screen with a turning wheel and never gets passed that. I have tried booting to safe mode and it still doens't work.

When turning on my imac, it loads to a blue screen with a spinning wheel. It never gets passed that screen. I have tried power up to safe mode and it still doesn't work. I have music files saved on the computer and I don't want to lose any of my files. Can someone help me?

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, and see if that fixes it. BTW. detailed computer and OS info goes a long way to solving problems.

Problem when turn on mini Ipad.

I have problem when turn on mini ipad. I have to slice the unlock after it flashing 3 times and not after flashing5 times!!
After the unlock flashing 5 times it will turn off the screen and I have to push any button on my ipad mini to activate the screen to turn on again every time!
Do I have to set something in setting to avoid this situation? It's boring to count the flashing of the unlock 3 times to slice it!!!
My iOS version is already updated but the problem still as the same since I got it on December 2012

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Try reset
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
If no joy, restore backup using iTunes.
Finally last attempt, rsetore as new and sync content back manually.

Catalyst & HDMI audio: problem when turning TV off

Hi everyone,
I've got two PCs with AMD E-350 FPU, one is a laptop running Windows 7 and the other is a nettop running Arch Linux (using Catalyst as a driver for the GPU). On both of them, I'm experiencing a similar problem with sound:
When turning on the computer and the TV, everything works just fine, including sound. However, if I turn off the TV (without disconnecting the HDMI cable) the following happens:
Arch: no sound anymore, even if I turn the TV back on. No visible changes in alsamixer.
Windows: sound through internal speakers. ATI HDMI sound device now shows up as 'Disconnected', even if I turn the TV back on.
Disconnecting the HDMI cable and then inserting it back (while the TV is on again) fixes the problem on both computer, and so does rebooting the computer.
However, even though this seems to not be a Linux-related problem (being etiher a problem with TV's firmware or ATI GPU), I wonder if anyone knows of a more elegant (preferably software, of course ) solution than reconnecting the cable each time I want to turn off my TV and then turn it back on?

I have the same issue in Windows. If I turn-off the TV and turn it back on, there is no sound. Because I have no other sound devices (disabled the others in BIOS setup), the speaker icon shows a red "x". The playback devices screen says HDMI is "unplugged." I have to restart the system or unplug/reconnect the HDMI cord to get sound to come back.

Problem when turning off

Everytime i'm going to turn my macbook pro off for some reason there's a software ( or anything like that ) called ''mirroragent'' and it's probably not virus because i've had that problem since my first or second day with my ''new'' notebook..
can anyone tell or explain these problems to me? it really annoys me when i'm using my duo core mac and it freezes when is going to turn off.. please, help needed here. it's not the memory nor the processor ( i guess ), it's probably something else..

ok, i was going to turn my laptop off and look what i've found, that problem again..
problem with the mirroragent, the only thing that really annoys me in my mac, i'm a newbie with macs but i've tried all kinds of things to fix this problem.. and it's really annoying.. i mean, it's not a big deal, but i've paid a good price for my macbook pro and i have a certain feeling that i've wasted my money buying my laptop because it freezes a little ( nothing comparing to most of computers i ever had ) i know, i know, it's not the point, i just wanted to fix this... if it's possible it's REALLY annoying.

W500 problem when turning on

I recently bought a Lenovo W500 which has some problems turning on with just the battery in it.
If i want to turn on the laptop with a fully charged battery(works with my t61 and t60), the system won't turn on at all.
But when i plug in the power adapter and turn it on, and then pull out the powerplug again, the system still works untill the battery goes flat.
I find this a very strange problem, because when the system works, it's rock solid and won't crash at all.
Background information:
The system had coffee with sugar spilt over it, but the system has not been turned on for a half year since that happened and i fully cleaned out the system today. The most sticky stuff was under the WWAN card indicated with a circle on this picture below (not my system board, i will take pictures of my own board asap). The indication on the left side also had some sticky spill but i could clean that all.
Link to picture
I already am running the latest BIOS (that should fix the turning on problem according to Dutch Lenovo support...), but that didn't fix anything.
Any idea how to solve this problem? It would be such a big shame having to scrap the system

I have recently had a problem when turning my iPad on from shutdown, in that it takes at least four attempts to slide my finger across to get the home page. The screen is clean, and when I do eventually get the home page it all works perfectly. Any ideas?

I have a problem getting my IPad to start from shutdown. I get the Apple logo then when it is ready for me to slide my finger across the lower part of the screen to get the home page, it takes at least four attempts. When it does eventually open the home page, all works perfectly well. The screen is clean so I cannot see any reason for this annoying problem. Any suggestions will be gratefully received. Thank you. Colin.

i would reset it, then restore as new

Problems When Turning On PC with iPod Connected

This morning I turned on my computer with my iPod Nano connected through a Griffin dock cable. The startup process stalled at the eMachines logo, and the Nano had the Do Not Disconnect screen. I disconnected the cable from the Nano and turned off my computer, then turned it back on. Ever since then my computer has been unable to start up at all. Is there a fix for this problem short of buying a new computer?

It might work if you're streaming from within an app that supports AirPlay while trying to mirror the screen to your external monitor, though I haven't tested that scenario, and it assumes that the audio app will continue to stream in the background. But if you're trying to redirect the audio from the main iPad interface while also showing the screen via a cable, that's almost certainly not going to work.
Regards.

I have a problem when turning off my N97

Hi there
I bought the N97 just a month ago. last week when I turned the phone off it didn't turn off immediately. It opened the contact, then the watch, after that the calender and suddenly it turned off after opening these applications. This is really annoying and every time i turn off the phone it does the same thing, opens several applications and then it turns off.
Please I need some help here.
Thank you
Solved!

Problem when turn off my Nokia N80

Hi everybody,
I've a Nokia N80 from Vodafone, i bought it at 4 months ago, since last week when i turn off the mobile it ask me to set the date and time, could you help me what i have to do?

Why don't you try setting your clock to auto update. You can do this by going to Clock>Options>Settings, scroll down to Network Operator Time and set it to auto update.The phone should now download the time from the network.
This function is also pretty handy when you travel abroad because your phone automatically sets to the local time.

When using bootcamp computer shuts down when turning the screen down.

Im using the latest version mac os x macbook retina 15display. When im running Windows 8 through bootcamp I'm having problems when turning down the display the computer always have to reboot again. I have to start it and choose to boot from Windows 8. But when entering Windows8 again it will remeber its state from when turning the screen down. This also causes a problem that I can not use only a single external display because I always have to have my screen up because when turning down it will shut down and my usb devices as mouse or keyboard will no be able to detect the computer. This is not a problem on my Mac Os X partition.

the behaviour of various things like closing the lid is something one controls in the control panel in windows under powersettings same as with all windows laptops

Lot's of people reporting Wifi problems with 10.7.4, but some things to try...
Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.

I am having a problem moving files from a iMac in location mac in another location. I have tried using Dropbox and the Public folder in the i disc. When I drag the files into dropbox they become alias' and I can't open them at the other end beca

I am having a problem moving files from an imac in one location to an imac inanother location. I have tried using Dropbox which is installed in both locations but when i drad a file ino yhe app it becomes an alias. When I get to the other location it says I can't open the file because the " original application that created it is not present". This is despite the fact that the app that created both files is installed in both computers. If I use the Public folder in the idisc, when I get to the other location the file isn't there. Am I forgetting to turn something on or off? Should I manually sync the Public folder and if so how? Thanks
