OS X :: Not Accepting And Recognizing Commands

Sep 18, 2009

terminal isn't working. It's not accepting any of my commands or even recognizing them as such. And it just opens up to a blank terminal window. Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't it supposed to open usr/bin/login?

OS X :: Installer And Accounts Not Accepting Password?

Jan 25, 2010

I can no longer install software or access preferences that require me to type in my name and password. Everything was working fine until today. My password still works during startup, but my screensaver does not accept the password.

Yesterday I created a user using dscl in the terminal. I am assuming my troubles are related to that.

Mac Mini :: Drive Jammed - Not Accepting CDs

Sep 9, 2010

I noticed that my Mini isn't accepting CDs, and when I look inside it appears that a thing piece of paper or cardboard is inserted in there (possibly stuck to the last CD I inserted, which of course didn't operate.) If I'm right, is this something I can fix myself by opening the case? If I decide I don't care because I almost never use CDs anyway, can I just leave it inside the Mini or will that cause some kind of problem over time?

Hardware :: Drive Stop Accepting CD / DVD

Mar 16, 2009

I have had this macbook pro since Dec 27, 2008, and I decided to try my dvd drive to burn dvds for the first time today. I was using Toast 10 to burn my dvd, but it failed halfway through (SENSE KEY ERROR) and my drive wouldn't eject it! It was making funny noises inside the drive, so I decided to restart and presto! It popped out, turns out after that fiasco it stopped accepting any cds/dvd's I throw at it (It spins the disc 3 times then ejects it). I have tried resetting the PMU and Repairing disk permissions and both of them had no effect whatsoever.

MacBook :: Slow Running Commands?

Oct 5, 2010

I've messed up my MacBook and it's now running really slowly (even just clicking on icons, going into folders and suchlike) and I need to find out the best way to sort out the following issue:

I wanted to back up my pictures and (now realise, foolishly) moved them from iPhoto to my desktop so I could transfer it to an external hard drive. It was hanging and had the spinning beachball. This was 7 days ago; it looks like it's done it and is now running very slowly, I know it's lagging because the clocks shows it is sometimes 10 minutes slow and it's whirring and doing something.

I had unplugged the hard drive in case it was slow due to that and from researching other forums for advice I have been able to check the Activity Monitor - the CPU is fine but the disk space is almost zilch (all blue and no green). I now want to delete the pics off my desktop as I'm sure this is the root of the problem. Is there a simple/easy way or do I really have to be patient, delete and trash them one by one?

As you can tell I am not a full on techie but understand simple instruction, so please if you can help me resolve this, I'd be very grateful.
