Supported media types have disappeared after installing 10.4.6 update

I can no longer burn DVD+R, DVD+RW media on my MacBook. After updating to 10.4.6, the apple system profiler no longer indicates the capacity to burn DVD +R, +RW media. Any solutions? Am I imagining that the drive originally supported "+" media? The apple tech specs on the mac book pro indicated that the super dive is a +-RW drive. Did the firmware for the drive change in 10.4.6?

... I got help in another discussion. If someone has the same problem, just download the combo update, start your mac from an external disc and install the combo. It works.

"On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after Yosemite install! HELP!

"On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2 install! What should I do?

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Unable to access media card after install of 10 software update

After installing the software 10 update, i'm not able to access the media card from the phone or when plugged in to the laptop. from the phone settings menu, i cant choose to save any file into the media card - its grayed out. Everything was working fine until I installed the update. Is this a common problem? did the update wipe out all the media card contents?

Have you tried removing the media card and re-inserting it?

Dictation in text message = Does not work
Speaking with Siri via activated with Home button = Does not work
Speaking with Siri with "Raise to Speak' = WORKS
Voice Memos = WORKS
Speaker phone on call = WORKS
Voice control instead of Siri = WORKS
I've tried hard reset, settings reset, wiping and reloading backup...nothing. Was hoping 7.1 might offer some respite, but no dice....
I was hoping 7.1 would somehow solve it.

Pictures disappeared after installing Yosemite and new Iphoto. Why

Pictures disappeared after installing Yosemite and new Iphoto. Why ?

I also started having problems with iPhoto after installing Yosemite. Some of the Event collections lost the picture and just has a grey square in its place. When I click on the Event, it shows a white dotted lined square for each picture and if I click on the picture, it shows an exclamation mark.
Check, if you also are having a folder "Old Masters" inside the iPhoto Library package, as described by Muhamad Abdulkadir.
Ctrl-click (or right-click) your iPhoto Library in the Pictures folder , then select "Show Package Contents". If you are seeing a folder "Old Masters", copy this folder out of the library. Look inside - are the original image files of the problematic photos inside?
Are any photos in your "Masters"folder?

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play (though they still play on the computer). When I tested it on another computer it claimed that computer was not authroied to play these songs even though I was just playing them directly off the ipod. Even more strange is that I alos have a number of songs loaded on my itunes from albums I loaded and I am fairly sure these songs were ones I recorded rather than purchased but now they appear on my purchased list.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
then restart the computer normally...(?)
You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
running from the hard drive's system.
Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
Good luck & happy computing!

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot. I tried to recover from recovery hd disk but after 3 attempts I am still not able to download lion! Any thoughts????

Try the Lion Community, and bookmark the notebook community (this is not).
You will probably need to provide others with more information too.

Low Signal Strneght after installing 6.0.2 update

Hi,
I am recieving low signal strneght after installing 6.0.2 update.Any fixes ? or anybody

Oops I meant cellular w/o the data.
You can try doing a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
if that doesn't help then try - settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
if that doesn't help, then contact your phone carrier and see if they can help.

Why did my Application Stack Disappear after I downloaded an OS update?

My Application Stack disappeared after I downloaded an OS update. I can get it back as a folder on the dock but not the Application Stack. I am relatively new to Macs so maybe I missed something in the setup.

Right-click or Control-click on the Applications folder icon in the Dock. A popup menu will open. Select Stack from the Display As section.

Use a program like YamiPod to export the playlists back into iTunes.
