    Reinstall OS X:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • I've installed LeechBlock and now I can't find it! Can anyone tell me where/ how to access it?

    Hi there,
    I'm new to using addons, so please forgive my ignorance. I've installed LeechBlock and now I can't see where to find it. Can anyone tell me where/ how to access it? I've looked under Addons in the Tools menu, but this just has options to install more addons.
    I had thought there'd be a button on the toolbar, or even a new toolbar, but I can't see anything...
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, you're nearly there! When you are looking at the Add-ons you need to select Extensions on the left-hand side, and you should see it, together with your AdBlock plus. There might also be a button in the 3-bar menu - but I'm not familiar with that particular Add-on so can't be sure about that.
    Hope that helps.

  • HT1414 My iPhone has crashed during a sync and now I can't restore from backup as it is asking for password to load the backup yet neither the lock code for the phone or my iTunes Password are working... I have no other password to all upon and need the r

    My iPhone has crashed during a sync and now I can't restore from backup as it is asking for password to load the backup yet neither the lock code for the phone or my iTunes Password are working... I have no other password to call upon and need the restore to retrieve info onto my phone, I am a real novice to this...... please help, !!!!

    If anyone else is looking for a solution to this same problem, I was able to get it working looking through several older discussions.
    The solution was to use the password that I had on my iTunes account the very first time I set up the iPhone about a year ago.  I changed my iTunes password about 10 months ago;  but apparently, the backups continue to use the password that existed when the phone was first set up.
    A couple of troubling things with this are that 1) I didn't apply a password when I did the backup this afternoon so I don't understand why it was required when I did the restore a few hours later. and 2) it makes zero sense why iTunes would not be smart enough to use the current accout password when requiring the password to restore from a backup made with no password. 
    I thought iTunes and Apple were smarter than that.  With so many posts stating exactly the same problem, it is clear that this is bug in the software. 
    Best,
    Craig

    - Did you try here:

    - If they were rentals and you have a 4G iPod, they will not transfer to your computer.

  • Just installed Leopard and now I can't send an e-mail

    I just finished installing Leopard and now I can't send or forward an e-mail. It wont even let me click on send. I'm not getting any error messages either. Anyone know why I can't send an e-mail?

    Since upgrading to Leopard, we have had trouble sending email. Usually couldn't but sometimes it would allow an outgoing message. Hours spent with tier 2 tech support, at Apple, AT&T and Netopia. All Mail settings were verified as correct. I saw a possible solution somewhere else in this discussion forum and tried it. Now Mail is working fine, with consistent email sending. Solution for us was to get the DNS numbers from AT&T and enter them on the Mac under System Preferences/Network/Advanced/DNS. The only DNS number listed there was the one for our Netopia 3347 modem. I clicked the + and added both the Primary and Secondary DNS numbers provided by AT&T. Clicked "OK", "Apply". Then I rebooted--don't know if that was necessary--but now email sends easily and so far no more "server does not support authentication" error messages. It was an easy solution, so it's worth a try.

  • Lightroom 3.6 update and now i can't import anything

    I've been using LR 3 for a while, really loving it, then a couple of days ago, I was prompted to an update for 3.6.  I did this and now I can't import anything.
    I'm using a Mac, OS 10.7, and I've been using a Canon 60D with great success and results, and nothing has changed except for me updating to 3.6.
    I'm using Camera Raw 6.6 and I updated the DNG converter to 7.2 and still it won't work.  The message i get is that the following couldn't be imported because they could not be read.  It's true for the RAW and the JPEG files, both.
    Help!

    I have the exact same problem. I updated to 3.6.12 and encountered the "blank page" printing problem. I ended up re installing Firefox 3.0.19. Printing works great. Also Firefox 3.5.15 gave the same blank page printing problem. I also installed "Better privacy" and " Ghostery"at the time of updates. These programs do not run under the 3.0.19 version. Not sure if if they are related to the problem. Good luck and hope a solution to the problem comes about.

  • Download I OS 5 and now I can't download anything.

    Okay so I updated my iPad to I OS 5 and now I can't download anything. It just gives me a waiting on apps and books. As for the videos and music I get preparing to download. My router looks like its download even when I stop the download. It blinks every time I turn on the iPad but I cant download any thing. is there anyone that can help me fix this?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
