What the heck is Single Core, Dual Core, and Quad Core Processor Configurat
I am listing an eMac computer on ebay. I have all the information necessary except processor configuration. Do eMacs come with Single, Dual, or Quad processor configurations? Or does it vary? I don't even know what those are really.
Make sure to follow these steps when selling*:
http://www.macmaps.com/selling.html
As was already indicated all eMacs were single core.
Apple didn't start releasing multicore machines until the later G5s.

I have mobile me mail service. Use mac 10.6.7. Have latest firefox. Suddenly only can get "find my phone" - not mac mail - even when I type in the mac.me or mobile me mail in the browser window. Safari seems to work fine.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Apple Mac Pro 2008 dual 2.8ghz quad core
Hey guys,
Ive got a real brain teaser. I have a apple mac pro 2008 dual 2.8ghz quad core that wont boot.
The leds on the memory test good its all tested in another mac and working well.
The 9 leds are reading as follows 2nd led lit yellow. Led 9,8,7 Green- which from my research is good.
Ive also reset the cmos battery and vram, nothing.
Pulled the memory and video card and re-seated them also nothing.
The last thing i tryed was shut the computer down sit for 30 seconds then held alt and got the install mac os screen not a hard drive option.
Which leads me to think its not seeing the hard drive?
Any suggestions?Starts up with fans
Makes the apple chime
The chime is generated in software when the first portion of the power-on self test has passed.Your Mac is working and has enough working RAM memory to start up.
You still may have problems with drives, the software on those drives, or your graphics card.
apple logo comes up
The dark gray Apple is loaded by the ROM boot loader in the first blob of software (before the file system is initialized). Its presence indicates your Mac can get some stuff off a Hard Drive, and seeing it indicates your graphic card can display something in a primitive way.
with spinning gear and just sits there for hours
It is stuck booting up something. Verbose Mode (hold Command-V at startup) will show you the parade of messages. The last five will tell you what happened. -
What the heck is iTunes uploading?
After a frustrating week trying to use iTunes match, I've finally gotten a good chunk of my library in the cloud. The problem is the remaining 10 gigs: all live DJ sets that are roughly 2 hours long. They hover around 180 mb each, so under the limit.
Problem is, I cannot get these to upload at all. I got lucky with one, and another matched, but the rest have been a boondoggle. I've tried many things, and as an experiment I decided to remove all of them from my library, add JUST ONE back into my iTunes, and then keep Activity Monitor open to see what exactly is happening.
And this is what I get: I added back in a file that is 189 mb large. I started the transfer about two hours ago. With Activity Monitor open and set to the Netowrk tab, I originally had "Data sent: 18.38 gb". I verified that I didn't have any thing else really doing any uploads (every once and a while I'd see "Data sent/sec" spike to 1k/second or so, so I figured it was probably just Mail checking my inbox). Now it's two hours later, Data sent/sec has ranged from 40k/sec to 90k/sec (darn ADSL's slow upload speeds). But here's the kicker, I see "Data sent: 18.69 gb"
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but a 189 mb file added to 18.38 gb should equal around 18.58 gb. Which means that iTunes has magically uploaded an additional 100 mb or so of data. Even considering the fact that, since this is an mp3, it'd get re-encoded into an AAC, I find it very unlikely that we're talking about a 50% decrease in compression efficiency, and keep in mind that the upload STILL ISN'T FINISHED. In fact, as I write this, it's now at 18.73 gb data sent and no sign of stopping.
Does anyone know what exactly is happening here? This mirrors my experiences with my first few attempts at uploading these sets: 10 gigs at once, but 6 gigs of uploading later, not a single one had finished. WHAT THE HECK IS ITUNES MATCH DOING??? I'm seriously considering canceling and seeing if I can get my money back, since I mainly cared about being able to stream these sets onto my iPad.Uh just to update, at around 18.77 gb data sent, data has stopped being uploaded from iTunes. Except it's still not done "uploading" the one song. So now I guess it's officially hung. WHAT'S HAPPENING???

Is there a noticeable difference between Dual Core i7 and Quad Core i7?
Hi everyone.
I'm going to be a college freshman this fall. I'm looking at 13" MacBook with Retina Display with dual core i7. I'm also looking at the 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display with Quad Core i7. I want to major in science and have a concentration in photography, which means that I will run programs like Excel, PowerPoint (or keynote), and Photoshop.
Anyways, will there be a noticeable difference between a Dual Core i7 processor and a Quad i7 processor?
Thanks!Ceteris Paribus, the quad-core will be twice as fast as the dual-core.

Cube will not boot... what the heck?
I bought a cube yesterday and it will not boot. This is what has happened so far:
New hdd
installed Tiger
ran updates
restarted
ran more updates
restarted
would not load fully.
Got to Mac OS X loading screen with varying degrees of success, but it always stops loading and the blue bar freezes. Single user startup works. Safe mode a no-go. Fsck finds nothing wrong with disk. I can't eject the disc that's in there no way no how in order to reinstall OS.
Another oddity: Target disk mode says the disk is unreadable, and says it's 7.1 GB when it's 38 GB. If I initialize the 7 gig bit nothing happened.
I put the drive into an external firewire case and reformatted it but I still cannot get the DVD drive to eject.
What the heck? This puppy passed all the tests yesterday just fine! It was ready to rock and roll until this happened! I am very frustrated! Please tell me my 300 bucks wasn't wasted... I need this computer for my business.
The only thing that I realized might be wrong is that the HDD was in master mode when I first put it in. The drive I removed was in Slave mode (this was the factory drive). I have tried to boot it up in both CS and Slave mode and neither one works.Hi! Try holding down the mouse button at startup to see if you can get the disc out. You made a calculated mistake that went wrong.
"New hdd
installed Tiger
ran updates
restarted
ran more updates
restarted
would not load fully."
You probably used Software Update to update the software and sometimes it doesn't work. You should get the install disc back in and then try an archive and install of the os. Don't run any updates until you are sure the system is stable. After you are sure it's stable you can download the 10.4.11 update HERE instead of using Software Update. Tom

I am trying to pay my bill online. However, when I click the "submit" key, it tells me my "nickname" is incorrect. What the heck is a nickname? I have never had this trouble before.
Had the same problem. Here's how I sorted it out, not including yelling at my PC or ranting in my own thread (that's optional): First you want to delete your saved payment option. If you try this and it does not delete, log out and back in. It should be gone. Now re-enter your payment option (credit card number or whatever you are using) and if it asks if you want to save the data for future use, make sure you give it a nickname that doesn't include any special characters. Hope this works for you!

I synced (updated) my iphone to itunes and some songs were deleted from my iphone playlist on my phone. On the computer, a circle is next to the song and the title faded out. What the heck is that all about and how do I get my songs back onto my phone playlist? Never happened before. My software is up to date?

I am transfering songs from one computer to another using home share. Both machines are authorized in home sharing. The songs import from (my) windows computer to the other (my wifes) authorized MacBook Pro, computer just fine. Once the songs are in the library and i try to sync her Iphone (4s) to her computer the songs ar greyed out and i can't play them nor see them under iPhone after sync is complete. What the heck is going on? BTW, the songs that i have imported are either songs i burned from a CD or songs i have purchased from the iTunes store, so they should sync no problem!? Help please.

What the heck is going on with my Virtual Memory??!!
I'm not really sure why but when I check activity monitor and see my VM it says i'm using anywhere from 230-270 gigs of virtual memory. This is literally fresh out of restart when it says this much and never changes. I go through and check every process I see runing and create a quick estimate of the virtual memory being used, and it's definitely not over 10 gigs if even 5; honestly I think it's listing between 1-2.
What the heck could be causing this? Verified HD and came up clean. Should I be concerned? I'm not gonna lie this macbook isn't running the best it used to be. Watching videos, whether mp4, mkv, youtube, is pretty laggy. I'm aways sure to close all other processes to to try and maximize video performance, not that it helps much. I'm considering a fresh install and recovery via timemachine.I excluded the list of fonts from step 4 as I'm a graphic design major and have well over a thousand...and I didn't want you to burn up your scroll wheel or rub the tips of your fingers off with the amount of scrolling you'd have to do had I included them .

My computer recognizes my old iPhone, iPad and iPod but NOT my new iPhone what the heck? It was fine last week, now nothing
When you plug in your phone go to the sidebar on the left, select the device, and select the menu you want to sync.
For example at the top there is summary, info, apps, movies, etc.
If you wanted to sync movies go under there and pick and chose the movies you want on the device.
Let's assume you are doing that and syncing is not going properly. Then first double check that there is a checkmark in the top left of that page that says sync movies
If there is uncheck and then hit apply. Then it will take all the movies off. Now re-check everything and hit apply. -

I upgraded from CS5 to CS6 for my IMac. I downloaded CS6 and out in my serial number and it worked fine for a number of weeks. Suddenly when I went to use it it said it was a trial version. I had to register it to use my CS6 I registered it and it worked, but only as a Trial Version of CS6 Extended. I do not want CS6 Extended. I deleted the trial version of CS6 Extended from my hard drive and once again downloaded my upgrade of CS6 and put in my serial number and it worked fine for a couple of weeks. Today, once again, it tells me it is a trial version and will not load unless I register the trial version. What the heck is going on? This is crazy. I simply want to use CS6, for which I paid. Help!
Frank BraultThanks!

About a week ago, I had no problem clicking on pictures to open them to bigger size.....As of about 4 days ago - If I try to open a picture on Facebook, it shows the comments but no picture..I don't know what is going on!!! It works fine on Safari, but I would much rather use Mozilla for my own selfish reasons, WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON????? ( I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING!!!!!)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== About a week ago.....I agree the phones are supposed to come with the battery and battery door missing that is policy of every wireless company. The problem is that the rep that you spoke with wasn't being as thorough as they could have been to ensure that you got complete equipment, is was a processing error from the first representative. Most of the information for exchanging a phone is auto completed by the computers as well so when the rep processes the exchange they don't have any say so as to what is actually in the shipping box so being that you didn't activate the droid 3 on your account when you called in about the missing battery and complained the computer only recognized the droid x because that probably what you had activated on your account, so that's why the second replacement was droid x equipment and not droid 3

My ipad mini says 6.1.3 is up to date, what the heck
it says 6.1.3 is up to date what the heck
I had the iOS 7 update available for my iPhone 5 at ~10:45 am Pacific time. I did not update then and checked just now again on my iPhone (over the air update) and the update available to me has been backdated from iOS 7 to iOS 6.1.4 (note that I'm still running iOS 6.1.0). Wait and try again later. It's clear that Apple is limiting the devices that are getting the update because of the overwhelming demand placed on both the download and activation servers.
