  • My computer won't turn off.  It says iPhoto is doing something and iPhoto is doing nothing, the circle has been spinning for 45 minutes.

    Try that. If that doesn't help:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • I downloaded an album recently, but I guess my internet was going in and out the whole time, and now 5 of the 14 songs will cut out after a few seconds.  How can I re-download those few songs?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let them deal w/it.

  • I just bought Apple Tv.  Everything is hooked up and home sharing is turned on (imac, ipad, apple tv).  When i play my itunes through my tv the song will play for apprx. 45 to 60 seconds and then cuts off and goes back to the main menu.

    I just purchased Apple Tv 2.  Hooked it up and everything is set on Home Sharing.  When i attempt to play itunes through  my tv the song will only play for approx. 45-60 seconds and then the Main Menu comes on and the song quits.  Same goes for when I put my photos on.

  • When I use Firefox to access the internet an arcade game noise is played through my speakers after a few seconds. This does not happen with IE

    I noticed today that when I started up Firefox after a few seconds an annoying arcade game sound (like Pacman) came through the speakers on my pc. I switched to IE and this does not happen. I wonder if there's a virus present? I scanned my pc with COMODO anti-virus and nothing was picked up.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == 21May2010

    The problem appears to be caused by having the Cool Iris add-on attached to Firefox. I have removed Cool Iris and the problem has gone! I also note that there is now a 'fix' to the Cool iris add-on available for this specific problem

  • My mac hung up while installing an update. It took hours and still did not complete the update. I restarted my mac. Upon turning it back on, a wheel has been spinning on a grey screen. I tried to reinstall OS X from utilities, but encounter an error. Why?

    My mac hung up while installing an update. It took hours and still did not complete the update. I restarted my mac. Upon turning it back on, a wheel has been spinning on a grey screen. I tried to reinstall OS X from utilities, but encounter an error. What do I do?

    Hey Manaskala,
    First point of call on all grey screen issues is the following:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    Given this issue has appeared after a software update, I'd advise you do the following instead though:
    1. Get an external hard drive, with enough space to put the entire hard drive of your Mac onto. Make sure you've safely copied any data you have off of it, as the next step will erase it.
    2. In the recovery HD of your machine, use Disk Utility to format you EXTERNAL hard drive with the partition table as GUID, and the format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    3. Get out of Disk Utility, and click Reinstall Mac OS X.
    4. When asked where, choose to install onto your external hard drive.
    5. When the download and installation is complete, your Mac will reboot into a clean fresh setup screen. Make your user account an administrator, and make up a name and password; I use 'Test' and 'test'.
    6. Your machine is now running from the external hard drive, not the internal hard drive, so don't be alarmed when you don't see your files.
    7. Open the finder, you should see 'Macintosh HD' in the sidebar. This is the internal hard drive of your computer.
    8. Open Macintosh HD, and copy out the following folders into a new folder on your desktop:
    -Users.
    -Applications.
    -Library. (This only needs to be done if you use 3rd party software that saves things in the /Library, do a quick google and see if it does e.g. Photoshop, Protools).
    9. When these have copied (it'll take quiet a while), you can now use Disk Utility to erase your hard drive. Don't erase Macintosh HD but the ENTIRE hard drive on the inside of your Mac, and as Thomas A Reed mentioned, there was likely an existing issue on your HDD so please go to Security Options and choose 'Zero Out' before clicking erase. This will rebuild the partition table which was a possible cause of the failed update.
    10. Reboot the machine holding 'Option', go to recovery HD.
    11. Choose 'Reinstall Mac OS X', this time onto your INTERNAL hard drive.
    12. When this is complete, make another admin user called test and password test, like you did last time.
    13. Run Software Update from the  menu of your Mac.
    14. In the Finder, you should see your external Hard Drive. open it up, inside that you should see your desktop etc, and on the desktop will be your folder containing Library, Applications and Users.
    15. Go to Finder up next to the  and choose File -> New Finder Window.
    16. In your second finder window, open up Macintosh HD (through the Go -> Computer menu), and go to your Users folder.
    17. Open the Users folder in your first finder window, and copy your user folder (has your name on it) into the second user folder (the one inside Macintosh HD).
    18. This might take a while.
    19. When complete, go to System Preferences -> Users and Groups and unlock the padlock.
    20. Click the '+' sign, and make a new administrator user.
    21. Now, the fun bit. Note the name of your user folder you copied, e.g. 'Nathan', containing all of your stuff. Note the difference between your user folder (has your name on it) and the Users folder (contains YOUR user folder, guest folder and shared folder).
    22. Make the ACCOUNT NAME of your new adminstrator user the EXACT name of your user folder (normally lower case and without spaces), this is case sensitive folks. Your full name can be whatever you want, usually your full name.
    23. Then click create. You should be informed that a home folder with that name in it already exists in the Users folder, would you like to make your new account from that folder? say YES!
    24. When this is complete, log out of the Test user, log into your new account we've just made, all your stuff should be there.
    25. ???????
    26. Profit.
    There's a few little bits that may need to be cleaned up afterwards, applications folder from your external hard drive should replace the applications folder on your internal hard drive, if the previously mentioned /Library folder contained important goodies then that should replace the /Library folder on your new Mac.
    Hopefully that will help you out, straight after that is done make sure your stuff is there, erase your external hard drive and turn on time machine!

  • HT204053 My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop items being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?

    My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop phone contacts being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?
    Also this works when one of us downloads an app it appears on the other iphone

    You need to use separate iCloud accounts. This will mean that you can both have your own separate contracts and calendars and put an end to them being deleted by each other.
    Whether or not you have a separate iTunes account, is up to you. If you have a separate iTunes accounts you will not be able to access the music, books, apps that have been purchased by the other. This may be exactly what you want, but it also means that you both may end up purchasing the same item.

    I have been using a Lightroom 5 including recent upgrades on my Mac Pro laptop for the past 1 year. This was purchased as an upgrade from Lightroom 4 for which I have a serial number. Today I purchased a new Macbook pro and loaded my Lightroom 5 however it is asking for my serial number which I have misplaced. I am unable to trace my serial number anywhere. I have even checked my adobe membership to locate my serial number but it does not seem to have any record which is strange as I have been using this software for over a year now and the previous versions since 2009. Could someone help me in my predicament.

  • My father was prompted to download an 'update' which appeared randomly while on his ipad2. since then the screen shows an itune icon and plug. Access has been restricted ever since. is that a virus? and how can he rectify it?

    My father was prompted to download an 'update' which appeared randomly while on his ipad2. since then the screen shows an itune icon and plug. Access has been restricted ever since. is that a virus? and how can he rectify it?

    No, it is not a virus! Not every unexplained occurrence in life is a virus. Microsoft has a lot to answer for by brainwashing users if its operating systems into thinking anything unusual must be the result of a 'virus'.
    It was most likely the recently released iOS system software update that for whatever reason did not complete.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • I tried to send an email and attach a photo and color wheel has been spinning forever

    I tried to send an email and attach a photo and color wheel has been spinning forever. Clearly it is still trying to send the message and it's been 45 minutes. I can't use my mail anymore.

    First off, did you check your internet conection? Your network connection might not be very strong. Try powering your device and turning it on again, see if that works.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
    If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
