Check your port for any dirt or debris. Check your system prferences, for the correct sttings
Try a PRAM reset.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Option, Command (⌘), P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on your Mac.
Immediately press and hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears. Continue holding the keys down until your Mac restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Make sure your easy setup has the correct frame rate for your sequence. Seems crazy but somehow or other fcp assigns a frame rate to audio files. I've found this can sometimes be tricky to get right. Here's what I've done to force the issue. Make sure the easy setup frame rate reflects that of the target sequence in fcp. Create a new project. import the audio in the new project. And then copy the clip from the new project to your main project.
Good luck

Airplay mirroring on Mac Mini (late 2012) doesn't work, extended display does...

Airplay mirroring on Mac Mini (late 2012) doesn't work, extended display does... What's going wrong here?
Details: OS X Yosemite 10.10
Apple TV 3rd generation, version 7.0
Switching Airplay on on Mac Mini works. It goes automatically on extended display mode. Switching to mirroring works for about 1 sec and then it switches back to extended display mode. On my tv screen i see my second desktop. Funny detail: it has the desktop background i used previously. Another funny detail: I had exactly the same problem when i used the previous versions of OS X and the Apple TV software...
Who can help, please!

I also have been having problems with Airplay on my 2014 Mac Mini see Mac Mini 2014 Airplay Display Disconnect Bug?
I"ve also noticed that my Apple TV (3rd Gen) does not appear in the iTunes Airplay list on my Mac Mini whereas it does on my MacBook.
I've booked a call with Apple Support for next Sunday to discuss the issue.
If I get any useful info I will pass it on.

IPhoto doesn't recognize iPhoto library - HELP!

When I opened iPhoto today, there are "no photos" in the library, and when I open it holding the option key and try to select the iPhoto library (which does exist) it says it can't recognize those files. I can't get iPhoto to be the default application for jpeg files either - it says it doesn't recognize those either. I know the photos are there in the library but iPhoto won't open them - please help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
Further, iPhoto is a database not an image viewer and it cannot be be set as the default application to view files.

IMac doesn't recognize Thunderbolt Display (after working as expected for months)

I've been using this iMac / Thunderbold display combo for the better part of four months and everything has worked fine until today.
After shutting the machine down and leaving the house for the day, I came home and hit the power button.
Things sounded normal, but while the iMac lit up, the thunderbolt display remained dark.
I've tried rebooting, resetting PRAM, SMC and I'm stumped.
Here's what I know:
Plugging the display's thunderbolt cable into the iMac (and also my laptop) does nothing.
Plugging a male to male thunderbolt cable between iMac and the Thunderbolt display also does nothing.
There is power through the displays charging cable.
Both thunderbolt ports on the iMac will recognize other thunderbolt peripherals.
The system report / profile shows no connection at either thunderbolt port when display is connected.
Anyone have any other advice or troubleshooting ideas?

While I did an SMC reset on the iMac, the thunderbolt display's power has been plugged in through all of my testing. So, I thought to myself, maybe just do the steps of an SMC reset on the display and see if it does anything. I did the same steps in tandem on both the iMac and the display. Now it works. Go figure.

My install DVD is stuck in the drive, I've tried everything, the computer doesn't recognize it. Help??

My mac was being slow.. i tried a lot of stuff but finally decided to just clear the disk and reinstall snowleapord. I had done this before and solved the problem slowness issue. I stuck the DVD in the drive before restarting but when I tried to boot from it the disk just spun but didn't boot. the mac booted from my harddrive just like normal.. I've tried everything to get it out. Holding down the mouse, drutil eject tray in terminal, disk utility, booting and holding eject.. Nothing has worked. the disc spins on waking up or starting up but it is never recognized, its never on the desktop doesn't show up in disk utility.. I don't know what to do at this point and i think its starting to effect my mac. Spinning wheel on almost every application and obviously battery problems from the disc being spun every time i open it in class. Its finals week and i need my mac for notes/papers/tests etc.. so i cant take it to the nearest apple store for a couple weeks.. please help. thanks!

Try pressing the eject button in the top right corner of your keyboard (it the one next to volume increase).
I had this problem with a DVD + R and after trying everything I realized there is an eject button.

I can't access gmail on my iPad mini. It doesn't recognize my pw

I have 2-step verification on my Gmail account. My iPad mini won't recognize my pw and I'[m guessing the 2-step has something to do with it. Any ideas?

1. Turn off router for 30 seconds and on again

Macbook doesn't recognize external display

I am trying to use my tv as an external display. My Intel Macbook doesn't detect my tv as an external display, this is because I am using an unconventional connector (VGA to RCA connector).
Anyways, I am wondering if there is a way to force my laptop to output video over the mini-DVI out port on my computer. I am thinking a utility or something would be able to do it.
This is my setup:
mini-DVI out from computer>
mini-DVI to VGA cable from apple>
VGA to RCA(yellow video cable) (from hong-kong)>
AV in of TV (RCA yellow video cable)
I realize that the VGA to RCA makes my computer not detect my tv, I am looking for a work-around.
Macbook 2.0GHz (White) Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You just need the Apple mini-DVI to video adapter. It has both a composite and s-video output.

Itunes doesn't recognize Ipod -- Please Help!

Greetings,
As the subject says, I cannot get my itunes to recognize my ipod. My ipod shows up fine under "my computer," and works normally everywhere else. I am running itunes 7.0.2, and Windows XP. I am constantly getting the error message about the ipod service module needs to close down. I've tried everything at the Apple support page, including, but not necessarily limited to --
1. Uninstalling/reinstalling itunes and Quicktime.
2. Resetting my ipod
3. Using msconfig to manually restart the ipod service module. This doesn't work because as soon as itunes opens, the service module shuts down.
4. Changing the USB connection I use to connect the ipod to my PC.
5. Restarting the PC with everything but itunes turned off.
Short of reinstalling Windows, something I really don't want to do, I am out of ideas. If I weren't already going bald, I'd be pulling my hair out.
Any ideas? Please?
Thanks,
Jason

Hi MarcelitaL,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The article below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having with syncing your iPod mini:
iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363?viewlocale=en_US
If you see your iPod in My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8) but not in iTunes under Devices, try these steps. Start at the top and work your way through the steps until iTunes recognizes your iPod.
If you don't see your iPod in My Computer, follow these steps.
This document is for Windows users and most older iPod models. See the following articles if you have this issue on:
A Mac
An iOS device (iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch)
An iPod nano (5th or 6th generation) (and you see an alert message in iTunes when you connect the device)

While updating to 8.1, not enough memory: phone is stuck in update, PC/iTunes doesn't recognize phone. Help!

I tried downloading 8.1 wirelessly(!). No warning about not enough memory. Software downloaded by would not load in phone (4S) - cell antenna went into permanent "search" mode(?). Took phone to PC to download videos to make room for IOS 8.1. iTunes does not recognize the phone. Was able to delete most videos using PC "my computer" and browsing to those files. Phone then allowed me to load 8.1, but now it is stuck on a black screen with the iTunes logo telling me to connect to iTunes: only iTunes still won't recognize the phone! Phone is frozen on this screen. Global reset (power + home button) only turns phone off briefly, then returns to this eternal screen of death.
Help?

I have the exact same problem with my iPhone 4S. HELP!!!
Also I tried Reiboot... and nothing...

ITunes doesn't recognize my iPhone -- Help!

Reaching out for help....
iTunes does not recognize my iPhone. Given the number of threads and help documents, this may not sound new - the baffling part is that it DOES recognize my iPod, but not my iPhone.
I am running Windows Vista on a Mac Pro using Bootcamp. Itunes works as it should in every other respect - it connects with an Airport base station, it recognizes and syncs with an iPod, etc. etc. - but no luck at all with my iPhone.
Things I have alread tried include....
- reinstalling iTunes (multiple times, making sure to clean up the remnants, etc.)
- stop and start (and reinstall) the Apple Mobile Devices service
- reinstall all Apple products (i.e. quicktime, updater, etc.)
- use different USB ports (have tried them all)
- fully charged iPhone
Frankly, can't think of (nor find anything) else to do!
FYI, not an iPhone issue, iTunes running in Mac OSX (on same computer) recognizes it fine, and iTunes running in vista (in a different computer) also recognizes it with no problem.
Any suggestions?
Help!!!

THANKS ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
After weeks of struggling with this issue, and having tried the solutions listed in this and other discussions; I finally was able to resolve the issue on my pc (Mac Pro running Vista with Boot Camp) by uninstalling both iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Support, rebooting, disabling my antivirus, disconnecting other usb stuff - then, from within device manager updating the driver for the iPhone by manually searching in the C:/program files/common files/apple directory.
You may want to jump ahead to trying the driver update right off the bat (dont know if my efforts preceding that contributed to the solution).

MSI Z87 GD65 GAMING Doesn't recognize crossfire. Help Pls.

Hello everyone, I've had several board msi brand, such as B3 P68 GD65, GD65 G3 Z68, Z68 GD80 G3, last week bought a Z87 GD65 gaming, but I can not activate the second video card, installed the amd 13.9 drivers with just one card ,rebooted and installed the second does not recognize the second card. I tested amd drivers 13.10v2 and does not work, I tested with the older amd drivers 13.4 official and does not recognize the second card.
Tested one by one each both graphical works fine.
I have the crossfire bridge connected.
I must change something in the bios? To recognize the second card? what ?
Never happened to me on msi boards such things and i haved always crossfire.

Hi everybody,
I tested one at a time in the pci-e 2 and works.
And do the same on Pci-e nº1. works fine the 2 card.
"Several possibles. If testing a card by itself in the second slot does not work, then either there is a problem with an errant standoff or other item shorting underneath the mainboard. The other most common reason is CPU socket pin(s) bent or damaged or the CPU cooler mouinted incorrectly or unevenly torqued.
I don´t believe it the pins because if you look at the GPU-Z recognizes the two cards.
And appears on device manager the to cards.
I am using SO w7 ultimate, and the board bios is the last version.
Is something else must be some setting in bios, and i don´t no...
