    Yay! Solved my own question; just did a hard shutdown, worked like a charm! Funny, didn't before. But who am I to question salvation?

  • HT4783 I have an early 2010 and a late 2011 MacBook Pro, they both have the latest upgrade of Lion. Neither of them can "see" each other in AirDrop. I have reset the apple ID on both. Is there any way I can make them "see" each other?

    I have a mid 2009 and a late 2011 MacBook Pro, they both have the latest upgrade of Lion. Neither of them can "see" each other in AirDrop. I have reset the apple ID on both. Is there any way I can make them "see" each other?
    As far as I know the older mac is compatible with AirDrop.
    Thanks

    So by dual-signal, are you referring to 2.5Ghz/5Ghz signal?
    I'm pretty sure my Mac mini 2011 has that but for whatever reason I cannot send via AirDrop to the mini. The mini can see other computers like my 2010 MacBook Pro and send files to it, but not in reverse. The MBP is unable to see or send to the mini unless the mini has engaged it to send a file to MBP. Even then it's temporary and the mini will disappear from the MBP's AirDrop radar upon completing the delivery of its file.
    So I'm a bit perplexed on how the Mac mini has AirDrop, can see other AirDrop computers and send files to them, but cannot be seen on other Macs to reciprocate.

    I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
    Think about it...  She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer... 
    Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?

  • Sony cybershot videos automatically import into iPhoto on MacBook Pro but not iPhoto on Mac Mini

    This is so weird.  I have iPhoto '11 vers 9.4.2 OS 10.7.5 running on both my MacBook Pro and my Mac Mini.  I can hook up the Sony cybershot and import all photos and videos into the MacBook Pro's iPhoto without any problems or special actions.  But the MacMini will only import the photos and never recognizes the videos even being there. 
    As a work around I can then drag the videos from the MacBook Pro's iPhoto window to the desktop, then turn on file sharing and pull them into iPhoto on the Mac Mini w/out any problems. 
    Info on the videos on the MacBook Pro's iPhoto: 1920x1080 H.264 29.97 fps
    Once those videos are dragged to the desktop it's a .mov and opens in Quicktime
    Info on the videos on the MacBook Pro's Desktop before file sharing to the Mac Mini:  Format: AVCHD 1080i60, 1440 x 1080 (1920 x 1080), Millions  16 bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (LR) 48kHz  29.97 fps  Data Rate: 83.1 Mbit/s
    What's going on here?  Is there some special codecs or something on the MacBook Pro iPhoto that the Mac Mini's Iphoto doens't have?  How can I fix this so my wife can import the videos straight to iPhoto on the Mac Mini like I'm able to do on my MacBook Pro?
    Thanks!

    Yes and no. It is my understanding that the most direct way will require attaching the script to each of the subfolders. However, the attaching of the script can be done using AppleScript. Those subfolders that are already in existence can have the scripts attached using the following script:
    click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">property WatchedFolderName : "Camera Phone Images"
    property WatchedFolderPath : ((path to desktop) as text) & WatchedFolderName
    property ScriptName : "Subfolder detection.scpt"
    property ScriptPath : ((path to Folder Action scripts) as text) & ScriptName
    tell application "Finder"
    set target of window 1 to folder WatchedFolderPath
    set theSubFolders to folders of entire contents of target of window 1
    repeat with i from 1 to count of theSubFolders
    tell application "System Events"
    attach action to (item i of theSubFolders as string) using ScriptPath
    end tell
    end repeat
    end tell</pre>
    and subsequently added folders can be caught by adding a test for folders being added in the folder action script. I am working out the details on that one now.

  • My ical in my Macbook Pro is not in sync with my Ipad 2 and Ipod touch. What can I do?

    Please help,
    Every time I use my Ipad 2 or my Ipod Touch to enter an event or an appointment to my ical, either one of them will show the event or appointment as soon as they are connected over WiFi. The same event will not show up in my ical in my MacBook Pro. I tried to sync them and nothing. I double check to make sure all the features in all 3 (MacBook Pro, Ipad 2 and Ipod Touch) are set with the same features and nothing. My ical in my MackBook Pro will not sync with the events in my Ipad 2 or my ipod Touch. Now, if I type the event in my MacBook Pro ical, and sync my Ipad 2 and Ipod Touch, then I have the events or appointments are recorded. But, many times, I do not carry my MacBook Pro with me, and I missed an appointment for example. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. Thank you.

    Greetings,
    Questions:
    1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
    3. Do you use MobileMe/ iCloud or another server based sync solution like Google or Yahoo?
    4. Do other changes to synced information like Address Book content sync successfully back and forth?
    Based on your description it sounds like you have a 1 way sync issue.  Events sync fine between the iOS devices and fine from the computer to the iOS devices but not from the iOS devices to the computer.
    Try:
    Backup your computer and iOS devices before doing anything else:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Ensure all the devices in use are fully up to date: Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update
    Make separate backups of critical data:
    Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
    Reset syncing on your Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    Reply back if that does not resolve your issue.

  • My Macbook Pro does not play sound after i unpluged headphones and no light is on

    Hi i have a macbook pro and i like it one day when we were trying to get it to work with our pa system and it went into protect mode so i un-pluged my laptop and no sound was to be heard there are no input and output driver in the sound nothing i tryed everything resterted it reset the pram and no red light is there any help besides going to the genius bar?

    See if there are some methods here you havent tried.  These are the only phone numbers and email addresses that I am aware of that are made public by Apple: http://www.apple.com/contact/
    Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
    First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
    If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
    Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
    If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
    Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
    Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
    Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
    Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
    If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

  • MacBook Pro 2008 not turning on, no sign of power and screen remains black

    I have a MacBook Pro 2008.
    It was working fine until when one morning i wanted to turn it on as usual only to find out that it can not power on.
    When i press the power-on button, i can hear the hard disk spinning but no display, the screen remains black like not getting power.
    No beep sound when tried to boot without RAM installed.
    The battery and the Charger worked fine when tested with another computer.
    The RAM works fine when tested with another Computer too.
    What could be wrong with my computer, i hope it is not the board that is dead.
    How can i overcome this problem?

    Op Charles,
    You can try a SMC reset:

    Follow directions for a battery that applies to your machine.

    It sounds as thogh the the GPU may be dead, you can take it in to an Apple Genius (make an appointment) they will disgnose it for free and give you your options.
    Good Luck

  • Macbook Pro does not start. Grey screen with logo and status bar going on forever.

    I have a Macbook Pro, late 2010 running with OS Mavericks. Lately it became very slow but never had major issues like crashing. Lat night, I tried a hard restart because it was stuck and I cannot get it to restart ever since. I get sound and grey screen with logo. The status bar is going on forever but does not boot. Can anyone help, please?

  • HT1338 I can not empty my trash can my MacBook Pro can not save anything because of it.No room available error.what can I do? I also have Windows 7 on  my Mac.

    I can not empty my trash and my MacBook Pro can not save anything because there is no space left".No room available error."what can I do? I also have Windows 7 on  my Mac.

    If it were me, I'd get a new hard drive or SSD and put it in an external enclosure. Boot into the recovery partition, format the new drive (not the old one) and install the OS to it. Shut down the Mac, open it up, and swap the drives. You may be able to read your data from the old one externally if you're lucky. If you're very lucky you may be able to use Migration Assistant to move all your stuff to the new drive.
    Look at ifixit.com for the exact procedure to get to the drive on your model. If it's a unibody it's pretty simple.
