Windows 7 will not long boot after updates

I was running window 7 (64bit) on my Mac switched it off (14th April 2011) last night and it applied 11 updates,this morning it no longer works I get to the partition selection screen and it freezes. Any one know how to repair it if I can't access the windows side ?

When the message came up saying that this version of windows was incompatible... I tried 'cancel'. It moved on. It was in the middle of step 3 of 4 on the upgrade. It appears to be ok now. I'll let you know if I have any more trouble.

My ipad will not power on after update. I have tried connecting to computer which doesn't recognize it. I have pushed top and circle buttons at same time. It had a battery charge before it died. I tried to stop the upload and am afraid it 'crashed'

My first genteration ipad will not power on after update. I have tried connecting to the authorized computer which won't recognize it - does not acknowledge a device is plugged in. I have pushed top and circle buttons at same time. It had a battery charge before it died. I tried to stop the upload midway and am afraid it 'crashed'

Try putting it into recovery mode.
Connect iPad to your computer via USB while it's turned on.
Open iTunes
Hold the iPad's Sleep/Wake switch (power button on the top of the iPad) down until the "power off" slider appears.
Power off the iPad completely (wait for the progress spinner to disappear).
Hold the Sleep/Wake switch AND the Home button down for a full 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds (the second time you'll see the Apple logo on the screen) release the Sleep/Wake switch while still holding the Home button.
Continue to hold the Home button for another 10 seconds until the USB connection image appears on the iPad's screen, then release the Home button.
A pop-up message will appear on iTunes saying it has detected an iPad in recovery mode, you must restore...
Click on the "Restore" button and the process will begin.

Windows 8.1 Not Working Properly after Updating Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1

Hi all!
Recently I had a problem with the sound in Windows 8.1 using BC v5. That problem was resolved by updating the Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1. Now I've more problems than before.
1. Some service are not loading at all at the startup (which did before)
The Boot Camp service is not loading automatically at startup, other Windows Services are not loading at the startup after updating the Boot Camp Drivers (Windows Update)
2. Microsoft Office cannot verify license for the product.
This problem is due to the services that won't start automatically. I can't even do a repair of MS Office 2013... Even though it's a legal version of MS Office.
There are many many more problems I think... I just haven't discovered them yet which is very very annoying. When I was using Windows 8.1 with the Boot Camp Drivers version 5 there were few bugs than now...
Please is there any notice of these errors? Or am I the only one who is experiencing these errors??? Please give me some answers!
Thanks in advance!!

I updated them by downloading the zip file from the Apple site...
I've just updated Mac OS X and it seems that this was the solution... Everything works fine! (For now)

Bootcamp will no longer boot after deleting partition #3 of my new Mac Mini. What happened? Was it the way I tried to reclaim the HDD space for Mac?

Here's my dilemma. I have a new Mac Mini - a week old. I installed Windows 7 on it using Mac's Bootcamp assistant. I then set up and configured my Windows 7 world and everything worked fine. No issues logging in between Lion or Win7 via the restart/option key procedure. Well, yesterday I split my Mac HD partition one more time to create a third partition (was created as an "extra", e.g. possible future partition for another operating system). After creating it, I then decided that I didn't really need it. So I deleted it in Disk Utility and attempted to drag the Mac HD partition line downward so as to "fill in the gap" and reclaim the lost hardrive space. It seemed as if I could reclaim about 1 gig or so, but I figured...oh well.
Well, the Mac HD partition seems to work just fine, but now I've noticed that I can't get into the Bootcamp partition anymore. It wont boot. If I try to verify the partition [doesn't even give me "repair" as an option), then it fails and gives me the following error message: "verify volume failed. invalid request." When I go to the Startup Disk option in my System Preferences section, it displays the bootcamp partition as a folder and not as a drive anymore.
I'm assuming that I messed up some permissions or lost some vital links during my attempted resizing/reclaiming of harddrive space. How do I fix this without having to reload either all of my Mac info or all or my Win7 info? I'd hate to consider the last two days of my life loading this crap up a complete loss.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for checking in, BDAQua.
Problem solved.
In the docs that came with my Powerlogix accelerator card, I found this sentence buried:
"If you reset the PRAM, the NVRAM code for OS9 compatibility is cleared, so you will have to boot from the Firmawre Update CD and perform this process again in order to boot in OS9."
The "process" it's referring to is the process of setting up the NVRAM for booting into OS9 from the CD.
Fortunately, I was able to find the disk, and it worked as expected. I can now, once again boot into OS9.
Conclusion: My (unadvised) attempt to load Leopard on this old machine apparently reset the PRAM on the accelerator card and cleared the NVRAM code for OS9 boot. Although I did attempt to reset the NVRAM via Open Firmware, it did not reset it on the accelerator card.
So, thank you BDAQua, for your "Ah yes" . . . that's all I needed to steer me in the right direction.

Ipod Touch 5 will no longer sync after update 7.1.2

After updating from iOS 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 my Ipod touch 5th gen no longer syncs with my iTunes 11.3.1.1 when connecting it to my computer (windows 8.1) what comes up on my touch's screen is "trust this computer?" I press the "trust" button then a few seconds later I get the disconnected tone from my computer and nothing else happens (it still charges) and just checked it out on my Windows 7 computer (iTunes 11.3.1.2)and it recognized it fine (but the other computer has my playlists) I've tried updating to iTunes 11.3.1.2, updating iPod drivers and uninstalling then re-installing iPod drivers and iTunes is still not connecting to my iPod. Help please.

On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

Time Machine will not back up after updating from 10.2 to 10.3

This just started yesterday so it has to be due to the update.
The following error message is given in the Time Machine settings:
The backup disk needs 257.55 GB for the backup but only 234.84 GB are available. Select a larger backup disk or make the backup smaller by excluding files.
250 free gigs on my backup disk but it can't make the backup? What? I currently have 900GB filled on my regular hard drive but I don't back up all of it. I exclude about 150GB from backup, so the machine estimates the total backup size to be 759GB. The backup drive already has 764GB filled, so I'm not sure where all this extra info is coming from. Haven't downloaded anything besides the new update.
Any ideas on what to do?

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It makes no changes to your data.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
tmutil compare | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
The command may take several minutes to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Don't post all the output; just read it yourself. Each line that begins with a plus sign (“+”) represents a file that has been added to the source volume since the last snapshot was taken. These files have not been backed up yet.
Each line that begins with an exclamation point (“!”) represents a file that has changed on the source volume. These files have been backed up, but not in their present state.
Each line that begins with a minus sign (“-“) represents a file that has been removed from the source volume.
Files that you’ve excluded from backup, or that are excluded automatically, are ignored.
At the end of the output, you’ll get some lines like the following:
Added:
Removed:
Changed:
These lines show the total amount of data added, removed, or changed on the source(s) since the last snapshot.
Caution: Under some conditions, tmutil may falsely flag files as not having been backed up when in fact they have been. It can be confused by multi-linked files, or by files with a modification date earlier than the one in the snapshot. This will not be an issue for most users. If the results of the above procedure surprise you, inspect your snapshots directly.

My iMac will no longer boot after half installing Maverick (only the essentials package was opened). How can I reboot it back to 10.8.5?

I was able to get a copy of OS X 10.9, but it wasn't the one straight from the App Store (which is free and I wish I knew before I got this other copy, but oh well). There is nothing wrong with the copy, it just simply doesn't initiate the install when you double click on it.
I installed one of the packages (essentials) off file, but not all the rest of them. For some reason the other packages weren't opening because it wasn't accepting my password, so I restarted the computer to see if that would make anything better.
It didn't. It now boots to the grey apple screen and stays stuck loading. I assume because only some of the install disk was installed, it doesn't really know what to do. But how do I fix this? How do I unistall the essentials package so that it goes back to normal?
I tried booting it whilst holding down "Command+Option+P+R" and it takes me to a limbo area where you can access disk utility. Within disk utility I can see that everything is still there.
What is the process to get it back to normal (I previously had 10.8.5).
Please help!

Thanks for checking in, BDAQua.

IPad 2 will not turn on after Update 6.1

I've read a number of discussions on the issue, but have yet to find a solution. I am using an iPad 2 (version A1395).
I tried updating to iOS 6.1 over WiFi. It seemed to download well enough, but when it got to the installation, it kind of fried my iPad. It will not turn on. I have tried all of the following:
1. Pressed the Home button (also tried holding it down).
2. Pressed the Power/Sleep button (also tried holding it down).
3. Pressed both at the same time (also tried holding it down).
4. Held the Home button while connecting to a PC via USB.
5. Held the Power/Sleep button while connecting to a PC via USB.
The only action that gets any response from the iPad is plugging it into power brick via USB. The Apple logo will appear briefly, indicating that it's powering on, and then it shows the "Connect to iTunes" graphic. Nothing more. If I unplug from the power brick, the screen turns off. Plugging it into a computer after that does nothing.
Any ideas?

I had this same problem with my iPad 3 (Verizon 4G, wi-fi) when I did IOS 6 update wirelessly last night. I could only leave one device at a time attached to my computer, so I left my iPhone 4S plugged in to the computer and updated to IOS 6 via iTunes. The iPad was updated over my home wi-fi network and plugged in to the charger. I was prompted to enter my Apple ID & Password on both devices and appeared to have successfully upgraded to IOS 6 on both devices. I even was browsing in briefly in the new Safari on the iPad to make sure it was working, then left it to finish charging overnight.
I left both plugged in overnight and when I woke up this morning, the iPhone was fine and the iPad won't turn on. I tried the remedy here by holding down the power & the circle button in front for 2 mins and still didn't go on. Please help!

IPhone will not power on after update

Dear Apple,
I currently have your iPhone 3GS which I received approximately 18 months ago. However, after updating the OS Software the device has decided to not power on. After speaking to your Apple Support Centre, they booked me an appointment at Apple Bentall Centre, Kingston, London, UK.
My device was looked at by a representative named Vanessa Baldwin who claimed that the device would not power on and that seeing as it is out of warranty, the only option I had was to replace it costing £139. I then asked to speak to the Store Manager Leigh Baigent, who reiterated Vanessa Baldwin's suggestion. He also added that the device would not power on due to a fault on the motherboard and had nothing to do with the battery. I proceeded to explain to your staff that I would expect a £400 iPhone to last longer than 18 months and that under The Sale of Goods Act 1979, a retailer is responsible for the items they sell for up to six years in England and Wales regardless of warranty. Your staff expressed a blank look towards me as if I spoke a foreign language and dismissed my claims.
I am therefore making formal contact with Apple directly to sort the matter.
Any help would be appreciated, please do not give me a story about warranty / insurance guidelines
I look forward to your response.

I would probably advise you to e-mail, or make contact by phone, rather than making a complaint on the Support communities page.
I hope your lucky in succesfully getting a new iPhone however

Iphone 5s will not send imessages after update

I updated my iPhone 5s to the newest IOS 7.1.2 and since that time it will not send imessages to anyone. I have powered off and on. I have reset the settings. I have checked to make sure that messaging is on. I have turned off messaging and then turned it back on. It was working just fine prior to the update. Anyone know how to fix this??
Thanks!!

Hello marybethcolc,
It sounds like you are unable to send iMessages after a recent update despite some great troubleshooting. I would use the following article as a guide to help you get that issue resolved, named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
Restart your device.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
Back up and restore your device as new.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling
