WHAT IF YOU TURN OFF YOUR BLUETOOTH ACCIDENTLY ON THE IMAC?,

HELP!  I was following a help and support task when I accidently switched off my Bloothtooth on my IMAC. Now of course I haven't got a working mouse or keypad to switch it back on. Apple Inc. want £35 to tell me how to do this, I'd imagine remotely...can anyone advise please.....?

Now of course I haven't got a working mouse or keypad to switch it back on.
Turn it on with the power button, in back, or in front, depending on your particular model iMac. The Mac should recognize no devices are detected, and turn on Bluetooth for you. At least that's what newer ones do. If yours really is a PowerPC iMac, you may require a USB mouse or keyboard.

    How do you turn off your phone if your sleep/wake button doesn't work anymore?

    If a reset doesnt fix it (which it wont - that is likely a hardware issue), then get warranty service.

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTuns purchases by:

  • What happens exactly when you turn off your Wi-Fi?

    I was wondering, for the sake of knowing it, what exactly happens when you turn off the Wi-Fi of a Mac? I normally turn it off before putting it to sleep, because there have been some ocassions where after waking up, the Wi-Fi is on but not working. So I was thinking, what exactly happens with the radio when the computer goes to sleep or it's turned off.
    * Is it bad to turn off "hard" your Wi-Fi?
    * Is it bad to keep turning on and off the Wi-Fi?
    I think that it may have to be something about a Wi-Fi service, but I simply don't know nor found any answer on the Internet.
    Thanks in advance.
    Mac Mini, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
    OS X 10.10.3

    When your Mac goes to sleep, the wifi is automatically turned off. When you wake the Mac up, your wifi will turn back on and hopefully will reconnect a short time later.
    The purpose of Sleep is to save on energy, so wifi will be shutdown, as it is a significant energy drain.

  • What does a Blinking Earth in a box mean when you turn off your computer.

    We had a power outage and when the power come back on I turned the computer on to get on. What came up was a blinking planet earth in a box on a grey screen. After 10 minutes the computer came on. What does this mean? Anyone know?

    Hello! It means it has lost its way and needs guidance.It's looking for a network drive to startup from and there are none on your system. Open the system prefs and go to the startup disk pane. Then select your normal disk and all should be well. Tom

    As often or as rarely as you like.

  • How do you turn off larger dynamic type on the iphone4 when your screen orientation is locked (vertically)?

    So I have the iphone 4 with the latests update ios7.
    So I went on settings > general > accessibility > larger type.
    And I clicked "on" for "larger dynamic type"
    Now my font is so big I can't even see apps that I have and such
    I want to turn it "off" but my screen orientation is locked! (I can't move my phone horizontally) I think if I can move my phone horizontally I'll be able to see the on/off button for larger dynamic type.
    I tried sliding the bottom upwards to turn off screen lock orientation but it's not on my screen because my font is set to a really big size that the "screen orientation lock button" didn't make it to the screen

    Turning on Dynamic type and increasing it shold not have that effect.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • If you turn off your mac can it continue downloading a file when it is turned back on?

    ...

    Safari will usually let you resume a download where you left off. Open its Downloads window, and click the orange "resume" button next to the downloaded file you want.

  • Does turning off your MacBook by holding the power button hurt your MacBook

    Almost whenever I exit out of War Craft 3: The Frozen Throne my Mac Book freezes up, as a result I frequently turn off my Mac Book by holding down the power button- Does this hurt my Mac Book?

    There is most definitely a chance that you can cause stability problems (although, it is somewhat less likely that you would cause any harm to the hardware). The likelihood of you causing problems increases directly with how often you shut down this way. You should be seeking a solution to the issue you are having with WC3. As Johathan mentioned, OS X does quite a bit in it's shutdown process. Bypassing that can cause anything from basic data corruption, to stability issues, to a non-bootable system depending on what the machine is in the middle of doing when you force it to shut down. In general, worst case scenario is that you would need to re-install OS X to fix things up. It's really not worth taking a chance on your systems stability for the sake of a game. I would say that you really should try to track down a solution to the problem you are having with the game.

  • How do you turn off Auto-Sync without connecting  the ipod  to PC?

    My Purchased Tracks was deleted off my computer, but I still have all of them on my ipod. I have iTunes 7, so I am aware I can transfer all my purchased music from my ipod to itunes. But I know auto-sync is set up, so when I connect it to my computer, won't it automatically sync itunes with my ipod and therefore delete my purchased music on my ipod? Can I turn off auto-sync without connecting my ipod?

    A couple of ways...
    Hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys when you plug in the iPod. (For a PC)
    Or...
    Connect your iPod, but before it starts to sync, click that little X on the right hand side of the ITunes display at the top of the page. (Next to the "Do Not Disconnect" message.)
    Then click box at bottom that says manually manage music.

  • HT4098 None of what auto renewal turn off is as listed in the help pages.  How do I turn off HULU trial before 7 days free is up?

    The help screens in the Turning off auto renewal are of no use.  Following the instructions to turn off HULU Plus subscription auto renewal is nonexsistent, since nowhere can a "manage subscriptions" option appear in my itunes home account page.  I am either blind or the step by step instructions are bogus?
