System only operates when HDD is hooked up externally

I have a MBP 13in Mid 2009.  My HDD recently failed and I had to reinstall OSX.  My failed HDD had no recovery partition because I cloned it.  So after installing Mavericks by externally attaching the new HDD to another Mac and running recovery.  I am now able to run my machine but only when my HDD is attached externally.  When I try to install it the system does not boot to recovery or into the OS.  I don't have an install disc so I have no clue what to do.  I tried holding option when powering up and selecting the drive but it never boots.  Is there a way to change this?

The situation degenerates...
Now when I try to turn on my iPod, I get the folder w/ exclamation point. I checked the support page and it said that I needed to update my iPod... Well, I can't, STILL waiting for help here.

  • My iPhone will only operate when connected to the PC, 2 minutes max after I disconnect it, the screen reverts to black with the apple logo and then completely black.  Restoring makes no difference; any ideas anyone? en

    my iPhone fell on the floor yesterday;  now it will ony operate when connected to the PC - then it works fine.  If I disconnect it from the PC, the screen reverts to black with the apple logo, eventually completely black;  iPhone is unresponsive until reconnected to PC.  Any ideas anyone?

    You broke it.
    It's time to find yourself a competent 3rd party repair shop or just buy a new phone. I believe you can get an out of warranty replacement from Apple for $149 (not absolutely positive they still offer them for the 3G), but given the age of the phone and the cost, a new one might make more sense.

  • Tecra M5: How to use HDD password when HDD is connected as external device?

    I have a Toshiba Tecra M5 with MK1032GSX hard disk. I put a bios password and HDD password. Every day I power on my laptop by digit my password only one time: unlock disk and bios. The screen for password is before windows starts.
    One day motherboard of my laptop is broken, I bring my pc on Toshiba support center (less disk), and I waiting for it (2 month ago). I need to read my date from disk but it is locked by password. The disc is SATA disk, I put it on a desktop and I see it in bios and in peripheral of windows resource, but I don't see it in explorer.
    Any of software that I tried (HDD unlock, atapwd...) wont work. I have my password, I have not forgotten it.
    How can I read my date? Can you help me?
    Thank you.

    as far as i know its not possible to remove the hardware password from the HDD other than by using your laptop.
    Still if you google arround I think I saw once something about a Linux distro that was able to unlock some HD's. Not sure if thats still arround but perhaps you can give it a go. Still I would not advise doing something like that has its possible that it messes up your HD and then you will be stuck with a good paperweight.
    The proper course of action when you send ur laptop to warranty is to make a full backup. There are image software out there that allows you to make a mirror image of your HD for example. I, myself, bought a 100GB USB2 2.5' HD that fits my pocket and goes with me everywhere. I've encrypted it with TrueCrypt so no one has access to my sensible information if loose it and I make regular backups from the laptop to this HD. It saved my life at least 2x.
    Just my 2 cents
    Cheers

  • I have a MacBook 10.5.8 with Boot Camp. I can only operate the Windows side. When I move into MacOS it does not open.

    I have a MacBook 10.5.8 with Boot Camp. I can only operate the Windows side. When I move into MacOS it does not open.

    Your phrasing is not clear. How do you reboot into Mac OS? /can you describe the process step by step?
    Usually, you should do like this:
    - while in win, restart
    - immediately after chime, press option or alt key
    - wait for 2-3 seconds, you should see the boot options
    - select Mac OS partition
    If you have performed all these steps, and, after choosing Mac OS partition, you cannot boot into Mac OS, then your system is corrupt and should be reinstalled.

  • Your SAP BW system can only operate in client 001

    Hello,
    After installation of SCM 5.0, we did client copy from 001 -
    >800.
    But when we execute RSA1 we got the error message:
    "Your SAP BW system can only operate in client 001"
    Is this because of client limitations?
    If yes, how it can be solved.
    Incoming days we are going to upgrade to SCM 5.0 from SCM 4.1.
    Will  it cause a problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Tushar

    Dear Naveen,
    It worked.Thanks a lot. But still have a logical system issue.
    RSA1>message appears->
    "Logical system name has been changed for the
    system"
    When I gave logical system of client 001 to 800 then it worked.(with  RSADMINA has entry now 800 which was changed from 001).
    It still not working logical system of client 800.
    I afraid, we will face issue after upgrade to SCM 5.0.
    I hope client will not modify after upgrade to SCM 5.0 in RSADMINA.

    I'm experiencing a log in issue on my MBA since installing ML this morning. However, I am able to sign into iCloud via my iPhone, iPad and on the web without issue. This only occurs when I attempt to go into iCloud setting in system pref's... I have attempted to change my password and also reloaded iCloud. Neither of these actions resolved the issue. When I open iCloud preferences in system preferences on my Mac, it prompts me to enter my appleID and password. Once entered, it just hangs...
    What exactly did you do (verified your apple ID/iCloud but in a very difficult way)?

    Hi,
    In the Finder use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
    Select the Library that appears when you do this.
    Navigate to Containers/com.apple.soagent/Data/Library/Preferences
    You will notice that many of the items are Aliases (to the Originals in ~/Library/Preferences).
    But there are exceptions.
    Delete (Drag to Trash)  the com.apple.soagent.plist and com.apple.messageshelper.AccountInfoController.plist
    Restart the Mac (I have not worked out is SOAgent launches when the Mac does).
    Restart Messages.
    If this does not work navigate to ~/Library/Preferences
    In here find and Delete com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
    This will need a Restart of the app.
    You will be asked Again for your Apple ID

  • Does iMessages only work when writing to people who have i05, or can you write to people using other systems ?

    I have an iPad 2, but have never yet been able to send a iMessage....does this only work when writing to people who also have i05, or can you also write to people who use other systems ?
    iMessages is turned on on my system, but even when writing to people who I know have iPads or iPhones , I just get the red exclamation mark....
    Sending messages on my iPhone seems to work okay when sending to non iPhone users, so I don't understand what's wrong here .

    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529 :
    iMessage allows you to send unlimited text, photos, videos, locations, and contacts using Wi-Fi or 3G* from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to other iOS 5 users.
    Note: On iPhone, if iMessage is unavailable, the message may be sent as SMS or MMS, depending on content. Carrier messaging rates may apply. You can turn this on or off in iPhone at Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Messages sent using iMessage will appear in a light blue bubble, while messages sent using SMS or MMS will appear in a green bubble.

    I wrote this long time ago, have a read and see whether it can be soloved
    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
    http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.

    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    Advance Level
    A. Diagnostic mode solution
    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk
    http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
    http://www.ifixit.com/
    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
    Last Resort Level
    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)

    2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

    I am not suggesting that you should follow as well, but just read them as your reference. You are the person to make the call.
    Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
    Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

  • My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

    My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

    One of the memory cards was indeed faulty, and the other completely fine
    Thanks very much for all your help!
    Although there is one little thing that I've noticed. The iMac works properly, but I tried to software update to see if that may help my Minecraft sound issue (as I still don't think only having 2GB instead of 4GB would cause such a problem) but the software update application won't work. Running the "Software Update" from the apple menu on the toolbar gains no response, nothing happens. If I run the software update from  system preferences, the application icon appears for a second, then disappears (as in the blank app. icon, the blank canvas with the pencil, pen and ruler in the bottom right corner). It does this every time I try to run it. It did work when the computer was crashing, but this started when on one of the occasions I ran the app. while it was crashing. Since this occured during the crashes, and still occurs now, I'm wondering did something simlar happen minecraft, as it's sound disappeared during the crashes and is still gone now.
    However, the computer is now working again without crashes, which is the main thing, thanks for helping me fix the issue
    Edit: I would mark the topic as solved, but I'm unsure if this would lock the topic or something simlar, so I'd rather leave it open for any ideas regarding the software update and Minecraft issues I'm having

  • I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

    I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !
    I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
    The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

    The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
    So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
    As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?

  • 10.6.8 update: screen brightness issues when hooked to external monitor

    I just upgraded to MacOS 10.6.8 yesterday, and since then, the screen on my Macbook is acting strange. 
    I'm hooked up to an external monitor which I use almost all the time as the primary monitor.  Usually, when I'm using the external, I turn the brightness all the way down (to black) on the Macbook.  After the update, however, the Macbook seems to have a mind of its own.  The screen gets brighter, then dimmer, then brighter again, without reason.  Or, othertimes, after about 30 seconds of inactivity, the Macbook screen gets brighter, then when you move the mouse, it goes back to black again.
    It's not that I care so much, but just wish I knew what was going on.  Glitch in the new software?
    Macbook
    MacOS 10.6.8
    External monitor: ViewSonic VA2231wm

    Same problem here with a MacBook Pro. I have the notebook connected to a Cinema Display and thus manually dimmed down completely my MacBook Screen. Now after updating to 10.6.8 my MacBook screen dimms up at the time when it would normally dimm it down if the screen was "enabled".
    I tried several steps to fix that:
    - Dis- and reconnected my external Cinema Display.
    - Changed display and energy safer settings in system preferences.
    - Fixed file permissions.
    - Did a PRAM-reset.
    Nothing helped.
    Please help us!

  • PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

    Hello,
    I created some pdf forms to distribute to the company clients. But we are having some people complaining about the text visibility. When they have work in team, the pdf that they receive from a third person often appears unfill or without text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this because our company products are base on this forms.
    If there is any addition information that I should add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.
    In the company, we all have mac and the forms where created innitially in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we have now Adobe acropabt XI pro.
    The users have both Mac and Windows systems.
    Thank you,

    This is usually caused by the form being filled-in and saved by a Mac user who is using the Preview application to view the PDF. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
    It is a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with the forms.
