They got rid of that screen in OS X Lion. I assume that's what you're talking about.

  • Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on it works

    Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on I can hear the ringing?

    Don't jump all the way to restoring just yet.  Check to make sure there's nothing in the headphone jack, and nothing covering the microphones (including the noise cancelling microphone at the top next to the headset jack)
    1. Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    2. Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    3. Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    4. Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Why do I never hear the second chime when resetting the PRAM?

    I have tried many times to follow the directions in the Help topic "Restting PRAM" but I never "...hear the startup sound for the second time." What might I be doing wrong? Thanks for your input.   

    Cause you don't wait long enough.
    Hold Option-Command-P-R down until the cycle repeats at least 2-3 times: BONG!--dark screen--optical drive recalibrates--dark screen--BONG!------->

  • Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?

    Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?Regards.

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the hard drive data is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the optical drive.
    Once it has finished booting and you are at the Install screen launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then select the First Aid Tab run Repair Disk and if that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • My macbook air has a black sreen, I can hear the apple chime when power is pressed but is stuck on black screen

    My Macbook Air has black screen, I can hear the apple chime when power is pressed but is stuck on this black screen.
    Also had beeps, 3 beeps was able to stop doing command/alt...
    What is going on???

    3 Beeps on POST usually indicates a memory problem.
    You will need to take it in for service, as you can't even so much as re-seat the memory on an Air.

  • Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with?  They can hear me.

    Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with?  They can hear me...

    Hi,
    There can be several reasons.
    1) They have their Mic Off.
    In iChat > Video Menu the Microphone Enabled (or Audio Chat Enabled in Lion) needs to be ticked.
    2) the System Preferences > Sound > Input tab Volume is not high enough ?
    Slide it to the right (their end)
    2a) the Mic selected here is not the one select in iChat > Preferences > Video section > Microphone drop down.
    3) there is an issue with the speed differences in the internet services you both have.
    If they are fast and sending lots of data and your end cannot buffer fast enough frame get dropped to smooth out video.  There comes a point when the audio can no longer keep in sync and is dropped as well.
    In iChat menu > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit set 500kbps at both ends
    This also smooths out ISP variances.
    4) after that it tends to be combos of things such as Processors involved, the Speed of those Processors and the speed or bandwidth available to the computers involved.

  • TS4022 why am I not getting the Advance options when I am in my iCloud account?

    Why am I not getting the "Advance" option when I am in my iCloud account?

    There is no 'Advanced' option at icloud.com. Is this a question of changing the default email address? I quote:
    In iOS 6
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Account (your Apple ID) >Advanced: Mail.
    Under iCloud Account Information, tap your email address.
    From the list of addresses available, tap the @icloud.com email address you would like to use as the default address for sending mail from iCloud Mail.
    In OS X Mountain Lion or Lion v10.7.2 (or later)
    Go to Mail Preferences > Composing.
    Click the Send new messages from drop-down and select the @icloud.com email address you’d like to use.
    At iCloud.com
    Go to the Mail app.
    Click the Action (gear icon) menu and choose Preferences.
    Under Composing, click the Set a default address drop-down and select the @icloud.com address you’d like to use.

  • Grey screen restart in several different languages

    My ibook G4 (2005/6) greys out. My friend's computer did the same thing and replaced the airport card and sorted the problem. My apple dealer told me it was logic board? My airport card isn't easily found as the puter is older.
    what do I do.

    Hi wickovski, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Grey screen restart in several different languages
    That is a Kernal Panic, your dealer may be right. See if it does it trying below.
    Could be many things, but it's best to start with these two steps, which may fix it also...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc , then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, *you must select your language first.)*
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
    Safe Boot... holding Shift key down at bootup. Safe Boot is a special way to start Mac OS X 10.2 or later when troubleshooting.

    Have you booted off the Install Disk by holding the *d key* down at boot-up, (not the c key), and run the extended Apple HW Test? Some Install disks require holding the Option key at bootup to select the AHT. Some Macs came with separate AHT CDs.
    Here's the list and downloads for AHT...

  • The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is always talking.  How do I make her voice go away and my IPAD work like it should.

    The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is talking.  How do I make the voice stop and my IPAD work again. 

    If you've turned VoiceOver on then see if triple-clicking the home button turns it off, and then change what Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home is set to.
    Otherwise, via 'the touch to select double-tap to activate' process you need to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off
    The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
    Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
    So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither
