The iMac would not take my sims3 generations disc randomly and now it is saying its a blank disc? What do I do?

I have been playing sims on my computer for a year and just a few weeks ago it started acting up. It would sound like the game was going to load but then it would eject the disc.
Now, I am trying to put it in and it is reading it as a blank disc. I don't know if it is reading it wrong or ifit really damaged the disc. What do I do?

yes, your option is as limited as getting it into the hands of an apple store employee (or if you have to ship it.. if there is not a store close by)
My wife's old 3G had this problem, it is a battery issue.  They replaced my wife's iphone within a day, but I'm not confident any amount of user troubleshooting will fix your problem

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Can someone suggest a solution please.

    It should work, but it's an unmitigated mess. Simplest is to boot into recovery mode and reinstall the OS.

  • Acrobat Pro X crashing so uninstalled and now application manager says its installed yet its not.  H

    I installed all the Creative Cloud apps last night.  Acrobat Pro X is not working.  When opened it opens and then crashes.  I uninstalled today and deleted the pref files in my library folder after the unistall.  When I open the Application Manager is shows that Acrobat is installed.  How do I reinstall the application? Where do all the programs download so you can reinstall if needed? FYI, I am on a Mac.

    Hi VisionSnap,
    How did you uninstall? Did you drag it to the trash bin or did you run the uninstaller?
    Thanks,

  • The old version of iPhoto would not import my photos from my iPhone and now there are over 11,000 of them, how do I erase these unwanted photos?

    I had the older version of iPhoto and it was allowing me to start the import from my iPhone but would unexpetcadly quit leaving all of the photos uniported and added duplicates of each one every time I opened iPhoto so that now there are over 11,000 of them. I have the newest version now and I was hoping there would be a way to erase them but I still cannot figure it out. Does anyone know how to erase the 11,000+ unwanted photos from the program?
    Thank you
    Heather

    So, are you gettting a message at start up? If so try:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • I zoomed in and out of pages, trying to get the right view to take a screen shot for facebook, and now my email homepage is HUGE when every other screen looks normal.

    When I set the view to Zoom Font only, my email page looks normal, but facebook is off. I can't seem to get the settings back to where they were before I tried taking that screen shot. I have tried restarting the computer, but that doesn't help. Am I just screwed?

    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

  • Firefox will not load; It said it was updating and now it just says not responding

    Firefox said it was updating,since the updates,it will no longer run, it just says not responding; I have windows XP. I have Uninstalled and re-installed., I bought the PC health Advisor, nothing works.Nonresponding, it will not load.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == it updated ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; Comcast Install 1.0; GTB0.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

    You could try the new Reset feature. This duplicates certain key data from your active settings folder into a new one, bypassing some add-ons and custom settings. Your plugins will still be active, but could be disabled manually if you like.
    More information in this article: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]].
    If the new settings folder has the same problem, you can switch back to your current folder, if you like, using Firefox's Profile Manager. (See [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]] -- don't delete anything just yet; use this dialog to switch back and forth as needed.)
    Does it work better after a reset?

  • My iphone5C came to the repair service today and got repaired today and now my service saying product replacement pending? What does that mean?

    Yea the same as my topic question

    No, it will come in new packaging which will contain all the usual accessories, and no, you will not get the original phone back.
    Don't think so
    Apple specifically say DO NOT return accessories with faulty iPhone
    Expect the same service as in store ,a service replacement unit in a Service brown box and you use the original accessories unless also faulty and subject to a warranty claim

  • I have been using the same debit card for iTunes forever and now it's saying its declined but it hasn't expired yet

    I Have always used the same debit card for iTunes and then the other day I tried to download an app and it said that I needed to update payment methods so I put in all of my details and it said that my card had been declined. I have no idea why and I don't know how to fix this. Please help

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Not good, your machine suffered a Kernel Panic. Please wait until Monday and your Apple Store will try to help troubleshoot your problem. In the mean time you can read the X-Lab's comprehensive article on KP's located at:

  • Store would not take back by broken studio beats cause the serial number and box didnt match

    so i went to return my studio wireless beats today cause the right side volume was not working.  the waterword lakes store manager would not take them cause the box and headphones serial numbers did not match and accused me and having more than one pair.  These are the only beats i own and have ever owned  they were bought online from best buy and box was sealed by my wife.  so how would you ever know the serial numbers dont match?  Open it in front of a best buy manager before you leave??  said for me to call beats myself.  So $360 bucks down the drain? They were probably refurbed and boxed during black friday is my guess.  not good best buy

    Hello and welcome to the forum coljeski,
    As someone who loves her Beats, I'm sorry to hear yours are not working well. They definitely are not a small investment, and I would be very frustrated also if I was told they could not be exchanged. It sounds like you might have received some misinformation, and I would be happy to look into this further. 
    Using the e-mail you registered on the forum, I was unable to locate your information or order history, so I have a couple of questions to help me assist you better. When did you purchase your Beats? Did you purchase the Geek Squad Protection plan (GSP) for them? Or were you still within the return/exchange period when you went to exchange them? To further clarify, if you did not purchase a GSP then you would have to contact the manufacturer directly for service. If you did purchase a GSP please send me a private message with your name, phone number we have on file for you, and the GSP plan number if you have it. To send me a private message simply click to the right of my signature below. 
    I hope this helps clarify things, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. 
    Regards,

    Imac  have black screen. Start Computer sound come on, no picture. The last time I used the computer I put it to sleep, it never came back.  i tried everything that was suggested including puting in the start up disk.  The disk would not eject.  Some one suggested how to remove it and that did work.  Computer going to Apple hospital Tues.

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.
