Starting and Rebooting takes forever, and Wireless cannot connect. Any ideas?
Bought this MBPro last Aug/Nov.
I just upgraded to Lion last week Thursday, and I am have had nothing but problems since. My Wireless connection will not work I get an error message "connection timeout", but there is no problem with the router, my iPod connects just fine. This was not a problem until the upgrade.
I also am now having a strange issue when I reboot or shutdown. When coming back on, the MB takes an awfully long time to boot. I don't have a time estimate, I could probably get one, but just for example, I folded all of my laundry before the desktop came back up.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know, otherwise I'll need to try and schedule a time to visit the Genius Bar, or talk with Apple over the phone.
Very upset,
GabeMBPro
After installing windows did you insert your Mac installation drive to install the Mac specific Windows drivers?

I have problems interfacing Outlook 2011 for Mac with my email provider Cable and Wireless Guernsey. Any ideas? Don everything C&W suggest
OK I just transitioned to MacMail, iCal, and Mac address book. Goodbye Outlook, It was great for 18 years and painful for the last year. Microsoft is losing share with subpar software development.

Followed some instructions to reboot as will not start and its taking ages any ideas please
Slow down and write clearly. What you're writing doesn't make sense. You need to write exactly what the problem is, and make understandable. Otherwise, no one will respond to you help request.
This (I May have found solution in 7 Mac start u options every os x user should know on a forum , gives recovery mode etc I had started to try to download yosemite again but that's what was taking forever! So I stopped it going to try the 7 options listed if not appointment at Genius - note to all back up your work, pictures etc I will be debased if they cannot recover them...) is slang. We don't speak slang. -

Try doing a restart. Hold down the power button to shut down the computer and then turn it back on after waiting ~30 seconds.

We have just installed Lion and now cannot connect to MyExpat
we have just installed OS X Lion, v10.7.2 and now cannot connect to MyExpatNetwork on my Macbook pro. Any suggestions?
yeah-find out where you're downloading stuff to, and stick with it. I'm using FireFox and tell it to save the driver and stuff on the desktop, and when I quit FireFox, there it is on the desktop. you'll also need your admin password. It should show up as a .dmg file, then double-click on it to open it. You should see "Brother.pkg" . start up brother.pkg (double click??) and folow the instructions that ought to appear to install the printer driver. If the .dmg file doesn't mount, use Disk Utility** to mount it and get it working. Then you should see the package. and then you can install it.
** you may have to click on the .dmg file and choose "Get Info" then Open with, then choose disk utility, and then open with then change all. then close it. Hopefully that ought to work. If you cannot remember your admin password, I can't help you right now. Looks like you'd need it, to let Brother install that printer driver.
well, enough for tonight
if this didn't help you, then ask me again tomorrow

My mac air OSX10.8.5 won't connect to the internet. It says it has a 'self assigned IP address and therefore cannot connect to the internet'. Network diagnostics is unable to the solve the problem. It happened suddenly for no reason and now I cannot connect except by typing in the configuration settings manually. Please help me!
Use the Airport Utility or log into your wireless device via http and ensure the DHCP/NAT service is enabled. If accessing via HTTP, you will need to manually set an ip within your local subnet (eg: 192.168.0.x).

I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
I've also seen it suggested that people try downloading a free app from the store onto the iPad (as that seems to reset something), and then re-try the apps - the free app can then be deleted. -
Hi! ... When configuring my new iPad, it says the UserId is already in use and I cannot progress any more. Of course it's in use, it's my UserId. How do I continue ?? ... Thanks in advance
Did you select "Sign In with an Apple ID" as opposed to "Create a free Apple ID" when setting it up?

The Control A key is not working. I cannot multi-select my songs. I'm not sure if it is the problem with iTunes 10.6.1.7 or my PC settings encounter issues. Also, i cannot find Album Artwork online using iTunes and i cannot select any view form but List.

I am the proud owner of a first gen ipad given to me for Easter by my kids and we cannot get any apps even freebies as says I must have V6 but now idea how to upgrade my ipad! i would be very grateful for simple instructions as to how to get apps ASAP And I have no idea what operating system I have
Many thanks a VERYNovice ipadderThe iPad 1 can be updated to iOS 5.1.1. You can see what level you are running in Settings > General > About > Version.
If you are not at iOS 5.1.1 and if you are have iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).
See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
If you are on level 5 but not at 5.1.1 you can update to 5.1.1 using Settings > General > Software Update.
There are still many Apps which will run on iOS 5. Also, some developers have older levels still available for the iPad 1. -
