The replacement of my mac screen will take 2 months or so! Is the delay acceptable?

There's a thin red vertical line that appeared on the left part of the screen of my mac. So, I brought it to the service center a week ago. I learned today that the repair will take 2 months or so because apparently, there's is shipping problem regarding the spare part needed to fix my mac due to government policy. Is the delay acceptable

Welcome to the world of Mac. Some ‘light’ reading to help the transition. I don’t recommend trying to get through all of this at once.

I have just added a time machine to my iMac and it is saying it will take 11 days to do the first back up. Any ideas?

I have just added a time machine to my iMac and it is saying it will take 11 days to do the first back up. Any ideas? It is only 355GB but is being backed up wirelessly but 11 days?
Help.

Hi lajetidreaming, I'm in the same boat; "See you in 8 days".
As LaPastenague says, use an ethernetcable for the initial backup.
And I will add; Since TimeMachine don't accept any interruptions during the initial backup, make a small backup first. That is - exclude a number of 'secundary' folders like music etc.
When you have one backup completed, TimeMachine is much more forgiving about interrupts, rebooting your Mac and so.
Good luck!

Unlocking my iPhone 5s (running 7.1.2)either by Touch ID or passcode the screen will quickly flash black before showing the Home screen.

HEY , please help.
im currently running on ios 7.1.2 and unlocking my iPhone 5s either by Touch ID or passcode the screen will quickly flash black before showing the Home screen. You know its a pure random thing , like a second. Its annoying . Help please , do i need to restore i hard resetted it twice .

You may have fragmented RAM on the phone; that second is the time it takes to move apps around in memory to make room for the Springboard (the internal app that displays the Home screen). To fix this do the following:
While on the Home screen double-press the HOME button.
For each app displayed, swipe up on its screen image to close the app and free its memory
When all apps have been closed this way reset the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears
If this doesn't fix it you should restore the phone using iTunes. Please let us know if this solves it, however.

First timer. Just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the pressent speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

I'm a first timer on this (or any) help site. I just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the present speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug tomorrow and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

Hi Oneinspirit,
Time Machine backups can be paused by choosing "Stop Backing Up" from the Time Machine icon on the right hand side of your menu bar ( ). Once you're ready to resume the backup, you can choose "Back Up Now" from the same icon.
Start a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Back Up Now.
Pause a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Stop Backing Up.
OS X Yosemite: Start, pause, and resume a Time Machine backup

I've been working on this all day!!! I've tried everything I know of and can't get it to load either. Sounds like lots of people are having problems. Here is what I have so far...I have uninstalled EVERYTHING on my pc from apple and reinstalled itunes to no avail. I have tried all sorts of things I've read as fixes online. NOTHING has worked. Here is something interesting that i have noticed though. my main pc (which is the one i have always managed my itunes account with for years) is a 32 bit system running windows 7. Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

My Ipod touch is acting very annoying. When i press the sleep/wake button to turn it on it just turns on with the apple logo and stays there. The screen will then blink white occasionally and the process will start again.

Sounds like your iPhones software may be corrupt. Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode. To do this, follow the steps in this article:

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Had hard drive renewed due to product recall (iMac) backed up complete system on time machine . Had the drive done got mac back tried to reinstall from time machine .The new drive tells me that the space has been taken up but can't find where the file have gone. Need to free up the space that the ghost file take up so I can drag drop from ex drive onto harddrive

Here's the scoop, new friend.....
When you boot into Time Machine you'll get the same OS X Utilities screen as you would if you booted into the Recovery HD. So, from there go into Disk Utilities to erase/format your internal drive. After that's done, back out to the OS X Utilities screen and select the restore option. Just follow the prompts to select the TM back up date you want to restore from and where to restore it to. Pretty straight forward.

Make an appointment at the genius bar and get the phone replaced.

The replacement of my mac screen will take 2 months or so! Is the delay acceptable?
