MacBook :: No Entry Sign And OS X Utilities
Dec 1, 2014I have an old MacBook (not sure how old - it was a handed down to me by a friend). It was working fine until this past week. I downloaded a Yosemite update and One Drive and now it won't start!Â
Basically, when I power up it displays a 'No Entry' sign, spends around 20 minutes on the Apple logo and the 'creeping' progress bar, and then when it gets to the end opens OS X Utilities. I am trying to get in contact with Apple Support but I cannot do this without the serial number, which I cannot seem to locate in OS X Utility.Â

Apr 28, 2009I received my macbook this afternoon and am currently trying to network my old dell with it so I can transfer my files. However, I cannot find the 'directory access' which is supposed to be in my utilities file- I have 'directory utility' but this has nowhere for me to enter the name of my windows workgroup (as per networking guide says I should) and thus cannot enter it into finder>go>connect to server!

Mar 25, 2012I recenty bought a macbook pro used off craigslist. I tried to system restore the computer. ( so i could start off with a fresh empty computer) I used disk utility to clear all the memory on the drives, then i proceded to click on the tab that says "install lion osx". Everything started working, but it required me to type in my apple id to complete the instalation. When i logged in it said that my account doesnt have lion bought on it, and i need to use an account that does. I have no clue on how to get lion operating system onto my account without physically logging into my computer and buying it. But since my computer will only start up into the Mac os x utilities menu im not able to buy it.Â

OS X Mavericks :: Just Restarted MacBook Pro And It Starts Up In Utilities?
Jun 2, 2014I did was restart and now I am stuck in OS X Utilities. I have 4 options:
1) Restore from Time Machine Backup.
2) Reinstall OS X.
3) Get Support online.
4) Disk Utility.Â
I tried disk utility first and it repaired a volume issue. I started the 1) restore from Time Machine backup. But it says "you will lose all info currently on the disk. Make sure you have backed up any items you want to keep."Â Should I continue?Â
I am hoping I will not lose pictures and my whole iTunes music catalog?Â

MacBook :: Cannot Get Past Disk Utilities After Resetting Computer
Sep 9, 2014About a week ago I purchased a 2007 Macbook off of Ebay. It arrived in the mail and i opened it only to find out he had not deleted a majority of his content. I looked up how to reset it and I did. It turned back on and displayed a Mac OS X Utilities page. I tried repairing my disk and that didn't work. I tried erasing it & after a couple of times that worked. Except I cannot get past that point. I have no Time Machine back up since I just purchased it. So I decided to try my last option and tried downloading Lion. It had asked for my Apple I.D. and I typed it in and once i clicked continue it said that "iTunes is temporarily unavailable" so I tried it again. Nothing. I even tried my mother's I.D. It still comes up saying that it is temporarily unavailable. I cannot access it. I'm stuck on that Utilities page and cannot access anything.

MacBook Pro :: Only Starts Up In Utilities - No Time Machine Backup
Sep 3, 2014When ever I turn on my Mac it starts up in Utilities and gives me the 4 options to restore from Time Machine, reinstall OS X, contact Apple, or to open Disk Utility. Unfortunately, I had never made any Time Machine backups.
When I try to reinstall the OS it tells me that my hard drive is locked.
Disk Utility tells me that it can't repair Macintosh HD and to back up as many of my files as possible, reformat the disk, and to restore the backed up files.
Since I can't create a Time Machine back up, what can I do to save my files and such if I choose to reformat? Is there possibly a way to unlock my hard drive to reinstall the OS? I guess I'm asking what is the best corse of action in this scenario?

MacBook Air :: Selective Re-installation Using Utilities Disc / Repair Or Mend Malfunctioning ICal?
Aug 1, 2008I've been having problems with iCal and would like to reinstall it using Utilities Disc 1 with the Superdrive. However, there only appears to be an option to reinstall ALL the bundled software, at which point I've aborted the reinstallation process. Sledgehammer to crack a nut! It's only iCal I'm having trouble with (e.g searches not clearing down, "today" button greys out.) If it's not possible to reinstall just iCal from disc, does anyone know a way to "repair or mend" a malfunctioning iCal?

MacBook Pro :: Changing Which Desktop Program Opens In
Feb 8, 2012About a month ago I upgraded my computer from Snow Leopard to Lion, but now there are some features that I had in Snow Leopard that I can't figure out how to change in Lion.I heavily relied on Spaces for opening my programs and more importantly, opening up certain programs in certain desktops. I was able to go into my System Preferences and choose which program I wanted to open up in which desktop in Spaces. Now that I have Lion (and Spaces is gone) certain programs still open up in certain desktops, but I don't want that feature anymore. Am I stuck with programs opening up in those selected desktops, or is there somewhere in my computer that I can go to change that?
