Utility Option Not Showing Up on Install Disc

I am still new to my Macs and I am trying to do an erase and install to solve a Panic Kernel issue (got lots of help in forum posts and a final cal to Apple support lead me to this).
I have backed up in Time Machine. Put in the install disc, click on utilities, the it says to restart which I do.
It restarts and I get the language screen. Then the INstall Mac OSX screen.
Next option is continue, but then it goes right into the install. I need utilities to erase the disc. (I am only assuming I need to do it from the disc since the drive I want to erase has disc utility on it.
Am I missing a step?

  • Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved!

    Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved... At least for me!
    Here's what I had to do to make it work with the newest 7.3.1 firmware.
    Ready for this? No Joke Really!
    1. Connect your USB drive to the Airport Extreme.
    2. Turn it on.
    3. Open the Airport Utility.
    4. Go to Manual Setup.
    5. Choose Disks and File Sharing.
    Yep, we are going to set file sharing before we even see the disk we want to share!
    You (I) had to set File Sharing on and Share Disks over Ethernet checked as well as set the Work Group (In my case). THEN restart the Airport Extreme.
    After it re-started... My USB Drive was now present and ready for use.
    I also dis-allowed Guest access. I re-started ALL computers in my network, both Windows and MAC. The USB drive held and works GREAT!
    I know... Most of you thought this was a joke, It's not!
    I tried everything to get the USB drive to work and failed every time just like most other people. Doing it this way worked like a charm.
    Go Figure huh!
    Hope this helps someone with this issue.

    How was the usb hard drive formatted? Was it NTFS, FAT32, or HFS+?

  • Why is the airdrop and airplay option not showing in my iphone 4s ?

    airdrop and airplay option not showing

    That link is addressing only iOS 7 in general, not the iPhone 4S specifically. I have already answered your question here: airdrop and airplay option not showing iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2. It is the same answer as what wjosten have provided in this post. Air Drop is compatible with iPhone 5 and later.

  • HT204380 I have bought a new iPad mini. its not showing me Facetime Installed. How should I start a Facetime ?

    I have bought a new iPad mini. its not showing me Facetime Installed. How should I start a Facetime ?

    Where did you buy it? facetime is barred from devices sold in some countries, due to the countries insisting upon it. UAE and other middle eastern countries are examples.
    If you bought your iPad in a country that banns its use then you'll never have facetime on that device. It's locked out at the most basic level.

  • New gesture trackpad options not showing up in Lion

    Why would the new trackpad options not show up after upgrading to Lion and downloading all of the updates? It's not as easy to get between full screen apps without the ability to swipe.

    2008. That's probably why. I didn't realize that it only supported a couple years back. You'd think they could fix something like that in the software...

  • My creative cloud desktop app does not show the programmes installed

    My creative cloud desktop app does not show the programmes installed so I cant update lightroom or any other programme, have unistalled and reinstalled but no change

    Hi Roni-
    If you updated the desktop installer and the screen is blank: try this:
    Rename the opm.db file.
    Close the Creative Cloud application if it's running.
    Navigate to the OOBE folder.
    Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
    Rename the opm.db file to opm_old.db
    Launch Creative Cloud

  • Disk Utility repair and Mac OS X Install Disc not at hand

    Help needed!
    If i click "verify" in Disk Utility, i get "The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired." as answer. However "repair" needs to unmount the volume which is not possible because it's the system/boot partition.
    Currently, I dont have access to my mac os x install disc (DVD), which could be used to boot from and run disk utility. The dvd is locked away in my office in another country.
    Is there a way around this? Either by running disk utility's repair function while the system is booted or else by manually creating a boot cd/live cd?

    Yes, possibly.
    Boot into single-user mode. After startup is completed you will be in command line mode and should see a prompt with a cursor positioned after it. At the prompt enter the following then press RETURN:
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    If you receive a message that says "*** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***" then re-run the command until you receive a message that says "** The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK." If you re-run the command more than seven times and do not get the OK message, then the drive cannot be repaired this way.
    If you were successful then enter:
    reboot
    and press RETURN to restart the computer.

  • I have just purchased a mac book pro. I't will not boot and the keyboard is broken. Also it did not come with an install disc. It's a 2011 13" mac book pro. Any guidance would be appreciated. This is my first mac.

    I've just purchased a mac book pro. It has crashed and won't boot. The keyboard doesn't function and i have no install disc for the original os. What can i do?

    it said: the volume macintosh could not be repaired.
    This suggests that your HDD may be corrupt.  In order to try and repair it, we must get into the recovery partition or use the original installation disks.  Try and start your MBP using COMMAND R.
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    If that works, note the 4 option menu.  Select Disk Utility>First Aid and verify and repair the disk.
    If COMMAND R fails, try OPTION COMMAND R.  If that works, try the same as above with Disk Utility.
    If neither works, it suggests that your MBP came with Snow Leopard.  You will need replacement disks which can be ordered from Apple customer service.  Have the serial number of the MBP handy and there is a charge.
    Ciao.

  • BootCamp not showing up in startup discs!

    I have sucessfully partitioned my macbook pro (thanks Ds Store!) and now I have another problem, When booting up I hold down option to choose my startup disc all that shows up is macintosh HD and recovery, BOOTCAMP is not showing up, even though it showes up in devices please help me!!
    - Ethan

    Did you actually Install a version of Windows into that Boot Camp Partition? It doesn't sound like you did.
    You'll need a copy of Windows 7 or 8, 64bit, and a valid license key code for whatever version you plan on installing.

  • My Macbook Pro will not load from Snowleopard Install disc

    I have been having some issues with the speed of my mac, and yesterday decided to reset from the install disc.
    Every time I try to load my mac from the disc it shows signs that it's reading the disc, but then ejects it and goes straight to the screen with the apple logo and cogwheel, where it gets stuck.
    I cannot get past the cogwheel screen, i have reset PRAM and SMB, with no success.
    Holding the option key does not help as it doesn't acknowledge the disc, and i have checked the disc, it is scratch free, an it d the drive is clean.
    When running hardwear test it shows up 1 error with my harddrive, (the reason i was resetting from install disc in the first place.)
    HELP!

    The error is for a sensor, so that should not indicate a problem with the HDD. As for your installer disc the Mid-2009 MBP 13" came with Leopard, not Snow Leopard. You might check what is printed on the disc label just to be sure.
    I don't know why the disc won't work. It could be an alignment problem with optical drive or something on the disc's innermost tracks. It can't hurt to get a lint-free cloth and clean the disk with alcohol.
    You might try turning off the computer and wait a few minutes then restart it. Put the disc in before you shut it down. Then when you restart the computer press and hold down the "C" key immediately after the chime.

  • 3D option not showing up for me in Photoshop!?

    Hey guys, I'm using my Photoshop CS6 Extended & I'm trying to utilize the '3D' effect feature, but it's not showing up where it should be.... I been following video tutorials & such online from other users of my same photoshop version, & I'm seeing where there 3D option shows up, but it doesn't for me!
    Also I have tried going to Edit>Preferences> Performance .... the Graphics Processor settings section says, " No GPU options available with Photoshop standard", the 'Use Graphics Processor" option is not checked in, nor is photoshop allowing me to select this option ... when I run my cursor over this section the description box at bottom reads, "Photoshop detected an error in your display driver. Update or reinstall the driver and check Use Graphics Processor to retry."
    I'm not sure if the above mentioned information is relevant or not, but from what I've gathered through my online searches it MAYbe... figured I'd include it incase it is relevant to speed up the troubleshooting process.
    Please, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks !
