Just bout the 27" yesterday and For some reason, the computer is not recognizing my password.... It says I can reset my password by using my Apple ID, but again it's not recognizing my password? Tried calling Apple, but they are closed
My computer keeps stalling and rotating beachball won't allow me to move forwards or backwards. Ultimately I need to turn off the power. I have tried resetting the PRAM and SMC but neither seems to help for too long.
I do not know how my iMac has no audio device selected. I did go to settings, sound, and even went through some others' questions to select internal speakers, but that option is not there...and I still couldn't figure it out. It was working just fine yesterday.
Something has happened to my Mac. I am having a hard time opening up programs, especially anything related to the Internet. It just keeps spinning and trying to open up the program. I cannot work like this!
i need to know how to umute my computer. i tried going to settings and then sound to unmute, but it wouldnt allow me to uncheck the box that says mute.
I was trying to download the free version of a game, and immediately after i clicked download, i started to see the computer slow down a bit. However, I just thought that it was a lag and it would fix itself when the game completely dowloaded. Afterwards, it said that there were a few errors that occured during the download, and asked me if I wanted to continue to play. I clicked yes, because I didn't think it would be much of a problem. Afterwards, the mouse was stuck on the middle of the screen, and no matter how much I wanted to click out of the window, quit Safari, or even restart my computer, the mouse would continue to go back to the one spot. I have absolutely no idea what to do to restart the computer, or quit Safari. All I have done is just sleep the computer, but that hasn't helped it at all.
My computer name keeps changing. I thought it was my printer network that was causing it but now I see that the "new" name is ACTIVE in Network-->WINS of System Preferences. It shows the computer's WINS-->NetBIOS Name as Name-2. And it says it is active.
To turn it off so I can disable it? What it is and how can I keep it from changing again? Why this happens (see above).
I do have MS Office on the computer and I have locked down changes to my Printer Network, to NAME instead of NAME-2. (The printer is connected USB but has network capability.)
I only have my computer on the MAC Router, no other computers are networked to it. (I do have an iPad, iPod & iPhone.)
I keep putting the name back and it keeps changing itself back to NAME-2.
For the past two nights, my iMac has randomly completely shut down. I set it to sleep before going to bed. When I woke up, it was shut down. And the weird thing is that it was shut down, and when it started up, no applications or anything were open. Generally, I'll shut down and it keeps everything open and running, then when I turn it back on, everything is where it was. I don't know if I lost documents or anything... or everything. I've never seen this before since getting Lion.
I checked my energy saver schedule... I had it set to SLEEP at midnight. But it is never set to shut down or start up. And even if it was, why are all the apps closing when it shuts down?
I bought my imac online, I have completed everything to try to unlock it. I held down the options button and now I am looking at a big lock. Tried to reset back to factory settings but can't, tried for it reset the password and still nothing. I do know that the computer is out of warranty and I after I paid all this money for the computer I can't use it. I don't have transportation to take it in
When my computer goes to sleep it will not wake up, and I have to shut down using the power button on the back and then restart. I called support and they advised me that this only happened when the computer went to sleep on it's opwn but not when you manually put it to sleep, But that proved not to be true. It will not wake up under either situation? The support persontold me to logonto applke and re-install the sytem software which I have done but that did not cure the problem either. I have my preference set to never sleep. I am ar]t a loss as to what to do now as when it goes to sleep or I put it to sleep i sometimes will not start up even after shutting down and restarting.I am on 10.7.2?
Can you cluster a computer a computer that runs windows. I got all these old dell computer and I want to make them useful. Also could I cluster a imac g4 and still be able to use the screen.
I have a iMac 6,1 (24") and just upgraded to a new 21.5" iMac; with it I bought a thunderbolt cable without realizing that my old iMac has no Thunderbolt port. My question is, how do I transfer all data from my old to my new, and is there an adapter for the Thunderbolt cord to connect to my old computer?
My computer is not reading blank DVD-R - kicks it out. However, it will read a blank CD and DVD's that have content on them. Is this something I can fix or do I need to bring it into Apple?
So recently my sisters and my mother bought this used computer called a "IMac's IMac" . It cost $700 . This computer is great the only problem is ... There's a LOCK on the administrator's account . And we need the password so we can download "adobe flash player 11" without adobe there's no watching videos , playing online games , or even me editing photos for my photography class.
