Ok Chris..
Might be a good time to run Disk Utility in case the startup disk needs repairng.
Launch Disk Utility located in /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then click First Aid.
Click: Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If DU reports errors, click Repair Disk

  • HT3529 My wife and I both have an iphone.   We initially created it under her apple id.   We will receive each others text messages from certain people not all.   Any ideas why and what we can do to stop it

    My wife and I both have an iphone.  We initially set them up under one apple id account.  When we text sometimes we will receive each others text messages from others.   Example I will text a friend...she will not see my text but the reply comes to both of us.  It seems to be random which ones.  Any ideas how to correct this

    Yup, get your own AppleID.
    The messages that are being sent to both phones are technically not text, they are Apple's iMessage. They use the data part, not the texting part. So if you have an iPad or a Mac computer, you can send/receive the iMessages there too.

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if it then works

    Safari will not quit.  It isn't highlighted, so what do I do?

    Dismiss any open dialog boxes in Safari, and if that doesn't work, press the Option, Command, and Escape keys, highlight Safari, and choose Force Quit.

    You need to reinstall OS X:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Set up exchange email on my imac but that same information will not work to set up exchange on my iphone. Any ideas?

    set up exchange email on my imac successfully but that same information will not work to set up exchange on my iphone. Any ideas?

    If your Imac is connected to the same Lan as your Exchange Server he might be able to access the DNS record for the autodiscovery services (the url that allow outlook/entourage or modern smartphone to autoconfigure the exchange account).
    If this url has not been made public by your IT staff, your iphone cannot resolve it.
    Typically, the url for autodiscover is based on your address email domain, i.e. if your email address is [email protected] the url for autodiscover will be https://autodiscover.company.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
    A good test is try to open this URL from a web browser (authentification may be requiered) from the imac and iphone then compare result. The expected behavior would be the display of an xml page with very little content (this is normal), if there is an http error or that the page cannot be displayed then autodiscover is not available from the network you are using.
    If so you need to request from your IT the name of the ActiveSync Url to use, most company use the same as the webmail url, so if to access your wemail you need to go https://webmail.company.com, the name to use on your iphone would be webmail.company.com
    Hope that help

    Hi, on a new MBPR 13, I transferred pics from my Samsung Tracfone smartphone using AndroidTransferFile app, worked good. My Samsung Galaxy Tab will not transfer with ATF, tried Samsung Kies also no luck, any ideas? Thanks...

    Today I downloaded a new version of Kies, 3.1.0.15042_6, and it seemed to work fine.  I was able to backup my Note 3 running Lollipop with no hesitation.  Files transferred to my Mac running Yosemite, OS X 10.10.3, easily.  The download is available at http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/

  • HT4528 my i phone four will not re-set it keeps giving me error code 1611 any ideas

    my i phone four will not re-set it keeps giving me error code 1611 any ideas?         

    Turned out that I had to delete the password first before I could change it.
    That's the first time I ever had to do that.
    In the past it would just accept the password that I entered when asked for it.
    Now I will remember - i hope! :)

  • I am having the same problem I think.  With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch.  I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore.  Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF file

    Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
    Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
    , so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
    No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
    Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
    Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
    Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
    They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

  • Mail activity hangs endlessly. Safari will not quit

      MacBook Pro, 16GB 10.9 Terabyte HD.  Tried completely reinstalling Maverick, fix permissions, repair disk.  Sometimes internet preference pane hangs and will not open.  Hangs Safari as well. There must be unknown conflict?  Problem seems to be related to a "remote server".  Activity Monitor shows two Safari-related activities not responding.  I have to force quit mail and safari to get the computer to shut down.  In Internet Accounts, I disabled google and Yahoo.  Have iCloud, and twitter.  Other Apps seems to work ok.  I have switched to Chrome instead instead of Safari because of Safari issues, but Mail still has endless activity and will not quit.  Any ideas?  should not have to force quit all of the time

    The problems seems to be with the following, which is not responding in the Activity Monitor:
    com.apple.preferences.internetaccounts.remoteservice
    I cant find this file on my computer.

  • Since iOS 6 my VW handsfree kit will not work properly unless I turn off synch contacts. Any ideas?

    Prior to iOS 6 my handsfree kit and iPhone 4 worked perfectly together. Now it constantly connects, disconnects and restarts. I found through trial and error that if I turn the synch contacts option off it works fine again, but then I can't use the handsfree kit to dial out and have to use the phone which defies the object of habdsfree! Very frustrating! It's a VW touch kit and not very old. Any ideas?

    I have been struggling for days on this same problem.
    I bypassed my router and wired direct from airport to modem and it worked.   Maybe it has something to do with router IP address?  If anyone can help figure this out so u can use my router, I'd love to have the answer to this  

  • TS1646 My credit card works on iTunes on my PC but not on my iPhone 5 iTunes/App Store account. Any ideas why?

    I am using the same credit card, and when I download an app on my PC in iTunes it loads fine, but using the same card on my iPhone 5 it declines any purchases. I have checked the card, re-entered it and checked the billing zip code. Any ideas why this is happening?

    Hi nezniezken!
    First of all, Explicit tags will only appear if your music or song is downloaded via itunes on ur idevice or itunes app.
    For example, your friend downloaded a song from itunes with an explicit content and you get or copied it to transfer to your idevice also... itunes application (pc or mac) will read it as an explicit one, but in your idevice it will not, unless you log in the apple id email account your friend used to download or buy the song to your idevice and download the purchased song. in that case u'll get the explicit tag
    Using metadata, mp3tags, or any softwares that adds "explicit tag" will only be read by Itunes app. but not on your idevice.
    Ways to check if you have a purchased music or song from itunes.
    1. All music from Itunes are M4a or AAC file.
    2. There should be a "Purchased By" and "Purchased Date" including the "Email (apple id account) and name" used for downloading the said song or music.
    (Right click the song from your library, Click Get Info and you should see it.)
    *If you have a friend telling he/she has a song bought from itunes and it is an explicit one, you will know the truth. If it has Explicit tag on his/her idevice then its bought from itunes, but if not.... he/she is lying.
    *If your friend bought a song from itunes and you tried to copied it (an explicit song for example) you will also see the "PURCHASED BY" PURCHASED DATE" "EMAIL AND NAME" etc. but u will not see the Explicit tag once you put it in your idevice, but itunes app will read it as an explicit one,
    There are many sites that are doing piracy, meaning... they are buying the song/album from itunes then upload it over the internet so other people may download it.
    I hope i helped you nezniezken!
