  • Help with Boot Camp Internet Drivers (Mac Mini 2011)

    Hi all- I've come here looking for some help / advice with regards to internet access on Boot Camp I have recently installed.
    I have recently bought a Mac Mini i5 2011, and installed Windows 7 onto it. When I run OSX, I can access the internet with no issues, however when in Boot Camp, I come up against problems with Broadcom drivers and being able to connect.
    I have put my Snow Leopard disc (from the MBP I'm transferring from) into my superdrive, and installed the 64-bit drivers.
    I've also installed Boot Camp 3.1 and 3.2 updates.
    I have also tried installing the Broadcom wireless n drivers after searching for them in the list.
    Plugging an ethernet cable into the router doesn't work either, and I'm beginning to run out of options to try.
    Re-installing Windows hasn't worked.
    Any help will be appreciated, hope I'm not the only one to encounter this issue!

    Google is your friend. An OEM DVD from another Mac is not  though would think/hope - and forget reinstalling.
    Blame Apple. Goes same for audio, graphics.
    Broadcom drivers search on this forum.... should find lots of folks running into issues.

  • Trying to connect my Newly purchased Vypyr 120 tube amp into Garageband 11.

    Hello, can anyone help?
    I'm trying to connect my Newly purchased Vypyr 120 tube amp into Garageband 11.
    My Mac sees the Audio in as Vypyr USB Interface but that's where it ends. No Midi input is detected therefore no recording level available.
    According to the manual the Vypyr is supposed to be plug and play but I suspect the driver it supplies/uses is out of date with my current Mac OS and
    GarageBand 11 on my machine.
    Does Garageband allow this to work?
    I am using:
    Garageband 11 version 6.0.4 (427.84)
    Mac OS X 10.7.5
    Vypyr 120 Firmware = 1.5.8
    Basically evrything is current and new ( The Amp's brand New ! )
    What can we do to get things working?
    Keep in mind everything is brand new and supposed to be working !
    What's going on here why isn't it working as Peavey claims it should be !!
    It's very dissappointing !
    Regards,
    John Okrasa

    Thanks for the help isteveus,
    Yes it kind of does except the level is extremly faint and no way of adjusting it.
    Seems the Amp volume adjusts the headphones but not the recording level in GBand.
    My setup as below...
    I'm contacting Peavey to find out what gives...
    Does anyone know if there's some way of adjusting the recording level in such a setup/situation ?

  • Lost newly purchased Iphone5, Reported complain in police station but not getting proper responce. Can apple help me out for this?

    Lost newly purchased Iphone5, Reported complain in police station but not getting proper responce. Can apple help me out for this?

    Oh, don't worry. I know exactly. I'm a retired law enforcement officer after 30 years. I didn't mean for them to allow you to use the Internet, I meant for them to assign an officer to try and track the device for the victim. Again, that would require the victim to provide their Apple ID and password, which most would not want to provide.
    Pinging the phone as you mention is only when there is probable cause and that is done through the carrier.
    I'm glad to see someone also understand that a stolen cell phone is not as important to law enforcement as it is to the victim. It is unfortunate as smartphones get more expensive. Hopefully as iOS 7 makes it debut later this year, the work Apple has done will have some impact on smartphone theft. Other manufactures and carriers are starting to improve here in the states. It never was something carriers worryed about with blacklisting. This is where they were a step ahead in Europe.

  • Can't put newly purchased songs onto iPhone! Plz help!

    My mom just got a new iPhone and we set up iTunes and downloaded the new version like it asked. We set up a new iTunes account and we downloaded some songs to break the new iPhone in, we downloaded them under her id and account. I have an iPod and already use iTunes but i logged out of mine to dl the songs for her. Sooooo.., now, when i try to drag the newly purchased songs to the iPhone or even the library, it won't allow me. My library still shows up in iTunes.....Can someone please help us!

    Sorry - that works, but I think you still have to go into the Music tab and click the box to sync music in the first place. Select your iPhone in the left hand list to see these tabs.
    Then, you can choose to sync certain playlists to keep the size manageable.
    It's not necessary to check the boxes on the music files themselves, or check the box on the front tab that says sync checked items only. That's (as you've found) basically just extra work.
    Ask if you've still got more questions,

  • Failing to install windows 8.1/7/ any kind of windows on my imac,seeking help foreal

    Hey there. It's going to be a long post since I've messed with it for 4 days, and still no success even in the time I'm currently writing this message - the furthest I got is having tons of crashes and black screens. And now I can't even reclaim my lost harddrive space (resizing partitions doesn't work anymore).
    I'll start with that I already tried to make Bootcamp work about a year ago, but then quit it out of no success and reverted all the changes. But this time my situation is different - I'm pretty sure something messed up in the middle and now I'm seeking help and answers to my questions. And here we go - one bright day I decided to install Windows 8.1 as a secondary boot system on my iMac for personal reasons. I went and added Bootcamp's ability to make a bootable USB on my mac by changing the plist file, and finally had the option to do so. Then got an ISO of Windows 8.1's installation, burned it to a DVD with disk utility (on the lowest speed) and here's already where my problems started. The disk failed to burn for some unknown reason, even though when I compared the contents it had the exactly same thing in both the ISO and the DVD. Weird isn't it? I still tried to boot it - and guess what? the DVD booted but it had the non-EFI interface (huge and pixelated). Anyway when I pressed next I had some weird driver errors, so I decided to use an USB instead (1 DVD wasted so far). I used Bootcamp to create a bootable USB with drivers and went to boot it. The USB booted perfectly fine under the name "EFI Boot" and then I reached the partitions screen.. Obviously I had weird errors again (GPT/MBR stuff). One tutorial on the web suggested creating a partition for the windows rather than using the Bootcamp pre-made one. I followed it by booting my main system, and using disk utility to delete the Bootcamp partition. Later on I booted again to the installation and created a new partition from the partitions screen. Windows created two partitions - a Microsoft reserved partition, and the secondary partition which is used for the windows files. After some time the windows finally booted for the first time. It took pretty long but went smooth - until it finally booted. Since here the problems returned - the Windows crashed every 5 minutes from a driver error (that's AFTER I installed the Apple drivers right after the system finished booting), I googled it and followed various tuts but it still wasn't fixed. I decided to quit using 8 since I liked 7 more anyway (I currently have it installed as a virtual system in Parallels), so I decided to install 7 instead of 8 since I never had any issues with it. Booted up my main system again - went to Bootcamp Assistant, USB creation. ISO file + drivers on the USB. I reboot. Holding ALT and... my mac can't even see the USB drive! Luckily I had 4 more installations (various ISOs) of Win 7, so I decided to try them. I tried ALL the Installations I in none of them my mac could see the USB drive (I wonder how my USB survived all this rewriting on it...) Again to Google we go. I researched a bit and realized that I'm missing a file called xboot64.efi in the "efi/boot" folder, which can be taken from windows. I tried extracting it from install.wim but none of my archiving apps could open it (I tried Unarchiver, Keka, 7zX, terminal's unrar command and more, none could!). I also realized my Win 8 installation had this file so I added it to the Win 7 USB. Now my mac could see the USB in the boot screen - and it booted. I saw the "loading files" screen, and after one minute of it... black screen. I waited 10 minutes. Then 30. An hour. Still a pure black screen. I thought something is wrong with my file, and read that this file is also found in an already installed Win 7, so I went to parallels and took it from here, then added it to my installation. Again my mac could see the USB, but still no luck. When I pressed enter to boot from it, nothing happened as if the boot screen was stuck - the drive was selected but it didn't do anything. I waited long time again and decided to stop waiting. I tried to burn another DVD, this time with Titanium Toast. Again the DVD failed to burn, and when I checked the content, it was the same as the ISO I tried to burn from (official ISO from Microsoft of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1). I went and booted it - this time I saw again "Windows" and "EFI Boot"in the boot screen, both with a disc icon. "EFI Boot" didn't load like the usb previously (loads forever), so I booted the "Windows" thing. The setup loaded, and finally I could see the installation window. Reached the partitions screen... and here the problems returned once again. An error along the lines of that Windows can't be installed on a GPT partition. Some tuts on YouTube and in Google suggested to simply format the problematic partition. And so I did - yet the problem wasn't fixed. After messing with all that for one more day - trying different installations, ways to boot the USB and DVDs, formatting the Windows partition etc, I decided it's time to stop messing with it since luck definitely isn't in my side when it comes to Bootcamp (and for the record, I never had any issues with OSX, but when I tried adding windows to it.. eh, you can guess.) I booted back to my normal system, and went to disk utility to delete the partitions. The Windows partition was deleted easily, but the Microsoft reserved one.. not so quite. (by the way when I boot into it I get a Win 8.1 error screen that tells me to repair the system, since I formatted the Win partition itself). Until this very moment I still can't delete the reserved partition and return my beloved 30gb that I lost because of the resizing (I can't resize my Mac HD partition).
    I'm really desperate now. I tried everything and the furthest I got is getting a broken Windows 8.1 (which I deleted later), destroying 5 DVDs, shortening the lifespan of my USB drive, and googling errors the whole day for 4 days in a row. And now I can't even return my lost 30gb even after I decided to quit it. Please help or suggest me what to do, whether it's about how to successfully install Win 7 or to return my lost gigabytes, any kind of help is appreciated. If you managed to read so far, thank you for reading my post and I hope you'll be able to assist me and get me out of this situation.

    Read the Boot Camp Help first. Boot Camp does not yet support Windows 8.1 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/system-requirements. If you insist on installing 8.1 use a virtual machine like parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.

  • Does anyone know how many times a newly purchased product (MB Air 2014) can be exchanged within the 14 day period?

    Does anyone know how many times a newly purchased product (MB Air 2014) can be exchanged within the 14 day period? I feel like the MB Pro would be a better fit for me, so I wanted to exchange my Air for the Pro. But also, if I end up not liking the Pro and want to go back to an Air, would I be permitted to do so with another exchange? (all still within the 14 day window after purchase of course).
    Also, are there any specifics I need to know in order to return my product and get a new one?  Obvioulsy, I would be sure to remove all of my personal files, music, etc...but is there anything else I need to do?
    And lastly, and im sure this question is irritating to you Mac wiz kids out there, but are the two models im comparing really all that different?  I just cant make up my mind and would love some pointers/suggestions/tips/info to help me figure out what model is best for me (the apple employee that was helping me in the store was actually not that helpful at all, if they were I wouldnt have to ask this question on a discussion board).  I do tons of multimedia things and download and enjoy music, tv shows, movies, all that stuff..and I used to love to burn dvds and cds (obviously cant do that with the MB Air now which totally bummed me out ).  Which model does anyone think I should stick with?  Id greatly appreciate some opinions! Really tho, help me out ppls! I'd love some helpful advice! I sometimes have problems making big/important/expensive decisions lol  I just really want to make sure i am getting the best model for all of my daily tasks and all of the things i actually do regularly on my computer.
    Oh, last lastly- I cant afford anything more than a 13" STANDARD MacBook Pro at the moment...soooo the Retina display is unfortunately not an option for me.
    Which is also a big bummer.but i think i can get over it...or beg someone to loan me an extra $200 lol
    Someone....Annnnyyyone....Pleeeeease....Heeelllllllp....
    Thanks

    Just play with each and figure out which one you want. I believe they only allow 1 exchange unless it is a defect issue. You can always return the exchanged item and rebuy what you want if they will not allow you to do multiple exchanges.
    But again, you need to really figure out which one you want.

    You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you sync with another one the iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with what is in the library of the second computer.
    However, you can manage music among multiple computers. See:

  • Issue deleting websites on newly purchased Ipad 4

    Hey everyone,
    I recently purchased an iPad 4. While browsing the web using Safari, I noticed that the Newegg website was showing as a website recently visited. It had a web address link to it..  The odd thing was, I had never visited the website from the iPad. It also had a link to a part of the website that I had viewed on my iPhone for a specific product. However, this was days before I had even turned on the iPad (wasn't sure if it somehow linked up). I have already cleared the Internet history and cookies under the settings for Safari. However, this has not worked at removing the website. Has anyone ever had this issue on a newly purchased iPad? I just find it very strange that I cannot delete the Newegg website links. I find it even stranger that it has these links to Newegg when I have never visited the website on the iPad. Any thoughts? Please let me know if any additional information is required. Part of my concern is that I could be using a used Apple iPad or that it could be hacked, even though I purchased it from Best Buy. Thanks for all your help!

    It might be sharing a web history with your other Safari browsing devices (MacBook/iPhone/iPod) and if it is, you may be viewing a page that you originally pulled up on lets say your iPhone. If you did, you cannot delete a iPhone browsed page with an iPad connected to the same account. You would need to pull up the browser history on your iPhone and delete the selected pages. Not sure if this will even help, but I figured it's worth a whirl

  • I need help in booting the microsoft operating system

              i need help in booting the microsoft operating system from startup.

    Which version of OS X are you running? All you need to do is to purchase a retail copy of whichever flavor of Windows you like (I prefer Windows 7 Professional to Win 8.1) and use Boot Camp to install same. Then you'll be able to boot into either Mac OS or Windows by holding down the option key.

  • Legitimate newly purchased Premiere Elements-10 32-bit install files not available

    Friends:
    I purchased an $1100 Nikon camera and the deal included OEM PS Premiere Elements 10.
    Legit purchase with a CD and legit Serial #.
    Can't install because what is Adobe's fault, not the camera vendor's and certainly not mine.
    Adobe's own published notice:
    "The 64-bit version of Adobe Premiere Elements 10 only installs on Windows 7 64 bit. If you have Windows XP 64 bit or Vista 64 bit, it's necessary to install the 32-bit version. Because the Adobe Download Assistant automatically downloads the 64-bit version in error, it's necessary to download the 32-bit version manually through alternate means."
    The problem is that the same holds true for installing on XP Pro SP3 and Adobe makes no mention of it in the above admission.
    Then, Adobe's own Solutions 1, 2 & 3 for manual download all fail, even after fussing for days over it.
    Even Solution 3, the last ditch option, fails perhaps because Elements 11 is out and Adobe has killed the 10 download Ftp sites.
    Files I am unable to download from Adobe (without entrapment by so called Free Dowload sites) are:
    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PRE/10/win32/PremiereElements_10_LS15_win32.exe
    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PRE/10/win32/PremiereElements_10_LS15_win32.7z
    How can I solve my dilemma, being denied my right to learn Elements from a legally purchased 10 and being
    forced to purchase 11 instead on top it. Fair?
    I am requesting Adobe politely to make it possible to download the Adobe recommended two files withou hassles.
    I must mention in this context my own  (and thousands of others') sad experience with Flash updates. Just follow
    my own (and others') posts in Adobe forums. Plus, just read the Internet posts along these lines:
    "It's impossible to download anything from Adobe. I have given up and I have given up on Adobe products."
    Not that I want to, but I am forced into echoing the same sentiment.
    Can anyone help, please ?
    Thanks,
    Pradip A.

    Hello Mr. Wright:
    The download now works. Appreciate your help.
    The ...7z file is 1.37 Gb long. I have super high speed Fibre Optic Internet connection with Bell. I rarely have the ocassion to download files of this size. After downloading more than 1 Gb, the transfer hung - either at the Client end, or at the Server end. Bell is sending tech Thursday to mitigate some line noise they detected. Hopefully, the stars will fall into the right place before long.
