I have a MacBook Pro and OS10.6 and am trying to log into a site that requires me to enter a code from a picture ... problem is all I get on the screen is a white '?' in a blue box. What do I need to display the picture?
Reload the page. If it doesn't load, choose Activity from Safari's Window menu, find that picture in the list, and see what it says to the right; this may reveal what the problem is.

I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV? I have a MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, but there are two issues with it: The new display doesn't have a VGA port, and even if it did, I wouldn't want to have my mac constantly attached to the display by a cable. I was looking for a way to use the TV as a display without any wires. Is there some type of bluetooth setup I could use? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
As I wrote above, I think you should look into the Apple TV yourself. The best place to find information about what it can and can't do and to ask your own specific questions is probably in the Apple TV forum, here:

Should I get a 2.0 or 3.0 USB external hard drive for my 2011 Macbook Pro? I need it to be compatible with the USB ports of both a PC and a Mac. I was thinking of getting a Seagate becuase apparently it is compatible with both systems, but I want to know which would be a better investment.

I need to minimize the space photos take on my MacBook Pro OSx 10.7. They are in iPhoto, Aperture, Pictures/Photo Library, etc. Are they taking space in all of these locations?
Are they taking space in all of these locations?
It depends on how you are using iPhoto and Aperture.
iPhoto and Aperture each create their own library files, and the default location for them is in /users/youruseraccount/Pictures
You can configure iPhoto and Aperture to use the same Library file, in which case your photos are only stored once. But if you are using iPhoto & Aperture with independent library files, you may in fact be duplicating your storage.
The second consideration is whether or not you have configured iPhoto and/or Aperture as reference libraries, in which case their library files only reference photos you have stored in other places on your hard drive. Setting them up as reference libraries does not duplicate the photos inside the library files. -

What do I need to transfer video and audio from my 2009 Macbook to my television?
I want to watch a movie with my family tonight, but the DVD is broken. I was planning on renting the movie online and transferring the video and audio from my Macbook to the television. What cables will I need to accomplish this? Also, does anyone know, were I to use a Windows instead, would transferring the audio be simpler? (And what would I need to do that?)
Try doing it without a cable!
Use AirDrop, described here:

UPDATE - Oh, sorry, I see the article points out the MacBook is too old for AirDrop.

I cant download youtube videos from my Firefox 3.6.28 version for my older PowerPC G5 Quad. I need to know the version of add-on, "YouVideo and Audio Downloader" that I use. I have never used this add-on before, not on my mac computer. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and my version of Firefox version 3.6.28 is the only current version I can use. Appreciate any help!
David HillGo to the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]''' {web link}
(There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
The site will see if your Firefox and system is compatible. for you. -
I have been using my Seagate Free Agent 500g external hard drive for years without even a hint of a glitch but this morning I trying plugging in the usb and got an error message that stated that the hard drive was pulling too much power and was being diabled. So now I cannot get the hard drive to connect period. What do I do - could it be a power cord issue?
Hi cactus flower,
If you are getting a message that a USB device such as your external hard drive is drawing too much power, there are a number of things you can do. I would suggest the steps in this article -
Apple Computers and Displays: Powering peripherals through USB
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049
Specifically this section -
Troubleshooting
If you have a peripheral (such as a hard drive, audio device, or camera) that is acting unexpectedly—such as not turning on or not being recognized by the computer—the peripheral may require more power than is available. If you have a USB peripheral or a chain of devices, such as a joystick plugged into a keyboard, which requires more than the available power try one of these options:
Use a USB hub that comes with a power adapter.
Check that the peripheral offers the ability to connect to more than one USB port at once.
Find out if the peripheral comes with a power adapter.
If you cannot confirm your device's use with a hub, connect the device directly to the Apple computer.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Dual display with Lenovo USB Port Replicator 43R8770
Hi,
I have installed the Lenovo USB port replicator using the 1.0.0.1 drivers. I am running Windows XP on a Thinkpad X300.
I can successfully get into dual display mode but when I try to make the external monitor my primary display it will not work. It just switches my primary monitor back the notebook LCD without displaying any errors.
If I disable the notebook display I can set the external as the primary but as long as the notebook is enable the external cannot be set as the primary.
Has anyone ever seen this before?
Solved!
Go to Solution.I know it's an old discussion, but I wanted to post instructions on getting the dual-monitor setup working, as it took me a while to get it right. This is using a Lenovo x301 with Windows XP SP3,
Lenovo Enhanced USB Port Replicator and 2 Dell 19" 1280x1024 analog flat panel monitors (I know..I know...) My
boss didn't want to use the Laptop display. Just the two external monitors. Note: before proceding, please make
sure you've installed the Port Replicator drivers.
Connect left monitor (primary display) to x301 VGA port.
Connect right monitor (extended display) to Port Replicator VGA port.
Click on the Intel(r) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile icon in the system tray and select GRAPHICS OPTIONS --> OUTPUT TO --> MONITOR
Click on the Lenovo Display Adapter icon in the system tray and select EXTEND TO --> RIGHT
Hope someone finds this helpful down the road.

running osx 10.4.11, what is cheapest way to do it (I have iTunes acc set up on both), is the only way to buy a new version?
If music etc was purchased from itunes store then go to the itunes app on ipad and check purchased to see what you can redownload for free.
Assume you can't sync the iPad as you are on Tiger with old iTunes version. -
Can't synchronize my IPod with the USB-Port of my 27 Inch Cinema Display
I use a 27" Cinema Display with my Windows PC.
It is connected via USB and Display Port.
Synchronizing my IPod at the USB Port of the PC works fine.
Synchronizing my IPod at each of the three USB Ports of the Cinema Display doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks StephanSorry if there is any missing information. I'll try to put all requested information:
The car system is the one that is already installed in my car, I mean it is not something bought externally and installed in my car. The car is a ford S-Max. This car has a complete radio system that includes a USB connection for mp3 players. It works ok but not with the iPod. The IOS installed is the last that has been released, but the iPod was not working with this connection before that update. -

NB200 running Windows XP - What's wrong with my USB ports?
I bought a new NB200 recently and have had a problem with my USB ports ever since.
Independently, both rhs ports operate fine with my Logitech wireless mouse - unless I attach it via a USB hub. When I use the second port to attach another device - in this case an external DVD-RW - the mouse simply freezes. Meantime, the DVD-RW itself is recognised by Device Manager, etc - ("Working fine - with plenty of available power output per port), but it nonetheless fails to work and Windows Explorer is unable to read any disc inserted in it.
Furthermore, the lhs USB port is pure decoration only; nothing I attach to it (even the mouse) will work, neither will the Sleep & Charge capability (at any of the 4 Modes).
I've uninstalled the USB controllers and ports using Device Manager which, after re-booting, continues to report that all's well, both with the devices I attach and the ports themselves, albeit i's still patently not!
I'm concerned that I'm still unable to create a recovery disc should the worst happen so can anyone help me resolve my conundrum, please?
Am I doing something wrong or, less likely to be the case, I'm sure, is there perhaps a fault with my machine??
Any advice would be helpful, please.
Regards
BobThanks for the suggestion, Guys, but neither provided the solution. I'd already updated both BIOS and Chipset drivers to the latest available.
Incidentally, the OS is the version of XP that came already loaded - subsequently updated via Windows Update, of course.
Any further thoughts anyone??
