TS2570 There is no Macintosh hd volume for me to click on when choosing a disk for is install.  Why not?

I am trying to deal with the flashing question mark.

Because the disk's directory structure is damaged, in which case you need to use the Disk Utility to repair or erase it, or the drive is physically unplugged or dead.

    Erase and Install
    1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU after formatting completes and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    5. After restart into Snow Leopard download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

  • HT4113 My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason

    My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason, what can we do? Can anyone help please?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Is there a way that depending on which radio someone clicks will activate another text? ie to explain why they chose yes

    I have a form that has different questions that have yes/no radio buttons. Is there a way to make it where if they click yes that a text box then appears or becomes active and required for them to explain?

    Yes, one uses JavaScript.

  • How do I get support for Windows 7 on, and a W7 backup disk for, my new ThinkPad?

    I know these have got to be stupid questions, since I am sure that they have to have been asked before (unless they are clearly explained somewhere that everyone else has found, and I am somehow completely missed it), but I did search the forums and was surprised NOT to find any info on getting Windows 7 technical support after it was factory installed in a month-old Thinkpad. I wonder if the apparent defects in my W7, or maybe a different problem in my browser, could be affecting my ability to search to forums?
    I believe that my Windows 7 is defective, but calling Lenovo, they just talked about reinstalling Win7 from the partition, which makes no sense, if my W7 copy is defective, wouldn't the copy in the partition be defective too? My mom said she ordered a $20 W7 backup disk with the PC, but I never received it, and now Lenovo tech tells me those aren't actually available, and she must have confused it with the W7 upgrade disk, which didn't sound right, since I thought the upgrade disk was over $100, and I never received that one either anyway. If the W7 that was factory-installed is defective, I am assuming it's a copy of the same one in the partition, so that partition recovery is not feasible, is there any way to reorder a W7 re-install disk that will still register as Genuine Windows 7 on a Thinkpad? Now when I search the Lenovo site, I cannot find ANY W7 disks of any kind, neither a backup for factory-installed W7, nor for upgrade from a prior Windows version. Does anyone know how I could go about re-ordering the W7 backup disk when it appears to be missing from the online catalog? Unless this too is a defect in my browser search: can someone give me the link to page where I could select and re-purchase a W7 backup disk?
    It has been a few years since I had a new PC, but I have never even heard of one before that did not come with instruction manuals and OS and support disks, and did not provide any tech support for its own factory-installed software or Windows, at least during the first few months of ownership. Where do new Thinkpad owners turn for individual W7 software support, since Microsoft swears it is Lenovo's responsibility to support W7 under its OEM license, yet Lenovo swears they only support hardware? It almost seems that new users are expected to know everything already, or be initiated enough with the product to know exactly what your problem is and what's causing it, in order to find an online fix. Who do you call if W7 or Lenovo software (but not an ISP issue) appear to be doing something to prevent online access, but there are no discernible hardware issues? Where do you call for individualized W7, as well as Lenovo software, support, especially after no one online has ever heard of your specific issues and has no workable ideas for fixing them, or when your problem prevents you from getting online at all?
    Thanks so much

  • When we will go for an abstract class and when we will go for an interface?

    it's always some what confusing to choose an abstract class and an interface,can anybody post a suitable answer for this.

    jwenting wrote:
    with experience and the insight it brings, you will know which to use when.
    Without it, it can't be explained.
    More often than not there's no X OR Y anyway.It's fortunate that there are posters here who possess the insight and experience necessary to explain this. The principal differences between an abstract class and an interface are,
    1. An abstract class can carry implementation, whereas an interface cannot.
    2. An abstract class is singly inherited, wheras an interface is multiply inherited.
    So use an abstract class when the implementation it can carry outweights the fact that it cannot be multiply inherited That's the gist of it.
    The inheritance relationship where this happens is when the supertype is a general concept of which all potential subtypes are special cases. This is called a specialization (or sometimes a generalization) relationship. For example Apple and Banana are Fruit. Or Car and Bike are Vechicle. The Fruit and Vechicle supertypes are general concepts of which their subtypes are special cases. In this case make Fruit and Vechicle abstract classes because the subtypes will benefit from a shared implementation.
    If you don't have a clearcut specialization/generalization relationship make the supertype an interface. An example could be the Comparable supertype. The potential subtypes aren't supposed to be specializations of the Comparable concept, they're suppose to become Comparable (and make this property an integral part of their being). This is not a specialization/generalization relationship. Instead the supertype is intended to add character to the subtypes. The subtypes are unlikely to benefit from an inherited implementation. So make Comparable an interface.

  • Why is Verizon charging me monthly for my cellular iPad access when I signed up for just one month? Who do I contact?

    I signed up for Verizon's month to month plan for cellular access and just discovered they are automatically renewing my monthly charges without my permission. Who and how can I contact Verizon to stop this and refund one month of unused cellular access? Please advise.

    Well then I stand corrected. I bought my iPad with a Verizon MIFI2200 WiFi hotspot directly from Verizon Wireless when they were running a promo last October. Verizon had just started selling the iPad and they came out with this deal and I took advantage of the offer. My plan is also a month to month access plan, but as far as I know, you still have to contact Verizon to stop the service. I know with my plan, unless I specifically cancel the plan, it carries over to the next month. The advantage to this plan is that there was no contract to sign and I can cancel at anytime without any early termination fee. However, I still have to cancel the service if I don't want it to continue.
    The bottom line is that the plan will continue month to month - there is just no contract to hold you to a two year agreement. You may have misunderstood or maybe you got bad information from the Apple rep, but what Verizon is doing is not being done without your permission - AFAIK. That is how month to month plans work.
    If you really feel that the Apple rep misrepresented this to you, then why don't you go back to him/the store - whatever and plead your case with him/her/the store?

  • Why won't SKY come up with remote codes for Seiki tv's especially when charging a fortune for SKY

    I wish someone could tell me why no remote codes are not available for Seiki tv's instead of coming up with excuses.

    Like all new kit, it takes time for the codes to be shared and then programmed into remotes.The Sky Remote has a database of known television codes.Each TV has a group of codes to control the different functions of the TV.Sky develops  sets of codes for each TV manufactured and then applies its own code to the control set.The Sky code is what you need to program the Sky remote so that it uses the control set for the selected TV. Each Sky remote is programmed with updated code databases when it is manufactured and to keep track of what remote does what, it is given a Rev number found inside the battery bay of the remote. In the case of Seiki, the code set was not incorporated by Sky until Rev 10.Anything earlier will not work unless by sheer chance it matches the code set of another TV.

  • Does the cache matter when choosing hard drive for mac pro?

    Hi,
    I have been looking at all the specs to see about adding another hard drive to my mac pro. It is the 1st generation 2006 duel. I am getting a bit confused about the specs required! I don't understand cache? I think that mine is 8 cache, but a lot of the drives I am looking at are 16 or more. Is this important, have I got to stick to 8? Also does it matter about which Sata? i.e. 1, 11 or 111? and what does 'low profile' mean? Fitting it seems really easy, but buying the wrong drive seems easy as well!
    Thanks for any help,
    Adrian.

    Desktop drives are nominal 3.5" form factors, about one inch tall. They use a 12 Volt motor to spin the heavy platters around fairly fast.
    Notebook rotating drives are mostly 2.5" form factor, now mostly around 9.5mm tall, possibly less. They have only 5 Volts available to spin the motor.
    SATA 1, 2, 3 -- 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0 is all specsmanship -- rotating drives cannot source data off the spinning platters faster than  a burst of about 150 Mbytes/sec (1.2 Mbits/sec). So that part does not matter except that the 1.5 drives will be older models. Do note pay extra for better SATA speeds.
    Rotation speed is very important, because that determines how fast the bits can fly past the read head. 5400 RPM is slower than 7200 RPM. A few 10,000 RPM drives are available, but they are too pricey for most users. I use 10,000 RPM drives in my Server. For Desktop computers, DO pay extra for 7200 over 5400. For notebook computers, a few 7200 RPM drives are available, but they sometimes run HOT.
    Green drives, on the other hand, take great liberties with spin rates and sleeping, and are not suitable for production (great for Backups, but then they are not candidates for spares for your main drives). For these reasons, I do not own any Green Drives.
    Large-enough cache size means the drive can read an entire track in one revolution, so that if you next ask for blocks near the original block you will not wait the average 4.166 milliseconds for the platter to spin halfway around to pick up new data (it is waiting, pre-fetched in the cache). So do not pay extra above about 8Mbytes, but use larger cache size as a tie breaker between equivalent models.
