Started slowly, doesn't recognise network, wrong date

started up my macbook and it started really slowly showing clank screens I hadn't seen before then once it had started up, it had not recognised my chosen network, the date and tme were incorrect and safari repeatedly keeps closing. I have tried updating the software but still the same problems.
Need Help!!

More than likely the PRAM battery is failing. I have the same problem and am contemplating changing it myself, not an easy task, or taking it to the Apple Store to see how much they would charge to change it. Actually my problems are worse than yours, if I sleep or shut down my MacBook it won't restart without trying about 50 times. As it is right now I never let it sleep and everything works fine.

  • How do I recover a lost password when Apple doesn't recognise my birth date?

    OK, I have a new iPad Mini, but for some reason it does not recognise my Apple ID. When typing in the ID and password, the password is not recognised. When I go to the "reset my password" part of iforgot, the computer does not recognise my birth date.
    How do you get past all this, and sort out the password glitch?

  • Aperture doesn't recognise network backup disk

    I use Aperture (2.1.4) for processing pictures and back up the vault periodically (learned the hard way) to an external drive connected to my Time Machine. Set up fine under Leopard, the drive was recognised and I could update the vaults using Aperture from time to time. It was necessary to open the external disk via Network before Aperture 'saw' the vault, but that was no problem.
    Upgrade to Snow Leopard and Aperture says no vault is connected (even when I have opened the disk using network even though the icon for the disk appears on my desktop).
    Do I need to reformat the drive under SL (via a USB connection), reconnect the disk to Time Machine and then re-establish the vault?
    Help - as it stands I cannot back up any photographs.

    What is the file system on the remote drive?
    I am using an Infrant ReadyNAS to hold a vault, but I created a Mac OS X "sparse image" with an HFS+ disk image on it. It continues to work fine on Snow Leopard (I mount the network share, and then double click the .dmg file which then mounts it on my host, and I vault to it). If you have some sort of network drive on something like a LaCie or Infrant or anything that's not formatted as HFS+, I would anticipate problems at some point, as the file system just won't properly handle the names that Aperture uses within its vault.

  • Yosemite calendar week printing problem (wrong dates)

    When I try to print a week in calendar on OS X Yosemite the day which is automatically selected and the range are wrong.
    Having set up with Monday as starting day in print view it starts with Tuesday, besides taking the wrong date (week before).
    Workaround is to temporarily change to "week is starting on sunday" but this gives wrong view on screen.

  • Strange error message when starting ITunes, ITunes doesn't recognise devices for wifi sync

    I have other wifi problems with my IMac running Mountain Lion but this is the most annoying. When I start ITunes it doesn't recognise that I have my IPhone 5 and my IPad 2 sitting connected to the same wifi network and waiting to sync.
    In the Console I get this error exactly when ITunes starts up:

    24/11/2012 12:56:47.678 iTunes[239]:  AVF KeyExchange Version from driver for Certificates 1
    Google search has explained to me that this is related to Bonjour but nothing further. I have done the 'usual' - booted in safe mode, repaired permissions, updated software, reinstalled Mountain Lion via Disc Recovery, restarted my modem etc.
    Before I just wipe the hard drive and start again from scratch, maybe there's something obvious I'm not doing? Every other device in the house (2 x Iphones, 2 x Ipads, 1 Apple TV, 2 wifi radios and 1 other IMac desktop) have no problems with the wifi network.

    I am having similar issue.  Getting these same 24 error messages everytime I start iTunes. Sharing is already off.

  • I want to re-use my old airport express base station but airport utility doesn't recognise it anymore (it dates from 2005) i would like to use it to connect to my speakers only

    I have an old airport express base station from 2005
    I would like to have a network on it so i can put it upstairs in a room and connect my speakers to it so i can send my music (from itunes) over the airport to my speakers.
    I reset it and now i want to configure but the Airport utility doesn't recognise it anymore.
    Can i update the firmware? has it become useless because too old or what can i do?
    I work on macbook pro with macOSX 10.9.4
    Can someone give me some tips please
    thanks
    J

    Please locate the model number on the side of the AirPort Express. Hard to see.....gray lettering on a white background....so you may likely need a magnifying glass and good lighting to see it.
    The model number starts with a "A" followed by four numbers. If you see A1084 or A1088, unfortunately AirPort Utility 6.x in Mavericks OS X (10.9.4) does not support these older models. However, you can still administer these models if you have a Mac.....or can borrow one for a few minutes....using Leopard (10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (10.6.x), or a PC with AirPort Utility installed on the device.

    Try this first... You will not lose any Data...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
    Then Charge for an Hour and try the suggestions again.

  • My iPod dispalys this message: "Connect to a computer. Use iTunes to restore."  When I connect to a computer, iTunes doesn't recognise it.  The iPod 5th Gen does not work at all. How do I fix my iPod without losing any data?

    "Connect to a computer. Use iTunes to restore."  When I connect to a computer, iTunes doesn't recognise it.  The iPod 5th Gen does not work at all. How do I fix my iPod without losing any data?
    I have seen the Apple webpage suggesting the "five R's" (including restore).  Before doing anything, I want to be sure that restoring or any other action is not going to delete or risk my data. 
    I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest a fix for this problem, in a way that will not risk my data. 
    Thanks in advance!

    Did you try a hard reset with the iPod still connected to your PC?  Have you tried multiple USB ports, preferably high powered USB 2.0 ports?
    To do a hard reset, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Have you also worked through each and every single troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?

    Select one and hit the Space bar to view it in QuickLook. Use the forward arrow keys to move from file to file.   If the file can't be viewed in the QuickLook mode then the file is damaged and probably can't be copied or moved.
    You could try a photo file recovery application like  MediaRECOVER which can scan the memory card and tell you what files, if any, can be recovered before you have to purchase it.

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

    Hello, Annie1138. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I have experienced this exact same issue for a Pre-order album as well.  I would recommend canceling the Pre-order and download it again as it most likely has not been charged.  This article will walk you though the process.  You can also check for available downloads to see if the items are pending.

    Hey brainmasala,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sounds like you are not able to connect to a Wi-Fi network with your iPad. This article has a section for Unable to connect to a Wi-Fi network and the second article is the recommended network settings. If after these it still has the same issue you may want to restore the device to factory settings.
