    Answer 1: Try to restart the computer by pressing command + R. This should start the mac in recovery mode and will allow you to reinstall OS X (don't worry it'll only reinstall the operating system, your files will not be deleted)

    Answer 2: Can elaborate you more on what is the iCloud premium Amazon.com for photos? I've never heard of this, what error do you get?

    Answer 3: Open Bootcamp Wizard and choose the option "Remove Windows 7/XP"

    Answer 4: Mackeeper is ransomware. AKA. a scam, don't pay for it. You can use tools such as OmniDiskSweeper, which is free and shows you what are the elements take place on your mac so that you can delete what you don't want.

    Answer 5: If you have iCloud library activated under iCloud, then your images will be automatically uploaded to iCloud and equipment associated with your Apple ID.

  • Software update in the Apple Menu

    Update of OS X Mavericks a week ago.  My printer Photosmart C4750 print however, the following message has been displayed - "you must install the software to use this printer.  To install the software, choose software update from the Apple menu.  If the software for your printer is not available in software update, contact the manufacturer of your printer. »

    Apple has no update of the HP printer software.  I went to the HP download site and I quote:

    "NOTE: If you have recently updated your computer with the mavericks a previous Mac OS, there is no need to install additional software."  Send a print job from your computer, and if the printer prints, you don't need to continue these steps. »

    Again, the printer works but the "error message" about having to install the software is not going away.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    First restart your Mac, try resetting the printing system and check to see if that can help you:

    * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

    Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
    Select Printer & Scanner.
    Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type your user name and password.
    Click OK. The printing system resets.

    Now, try to add the printer again and check for the difference.

    If the same behavior persists, try to install the following package and check any changes:

  • Does not open the system preferences of the Apple menu

    Anyone know of a good solution for this?

    A few weeks ago I started noticing that I couldn't open my application system preferences in the Apple Menu bar (via the Apple logo > system, or via the WiFi icon Preferences > network, or even Preferences by right-clicking on the desktop to change the desktop background, etc.).

    WHAT WORKS:

    I can open the system preferences if I click directly on the application icon or you try to open it from the dock.

    I can open the app in the Apple menu if I register as another user.

    WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

    The problem does not go away when I restart in mode 'start '.

    The problem does not go away when I run disk utility.

    The problem does not go away when I remove the "Finder" and "System Preferences".plist file in the Preferences folder in the user's library.

    The problem does not go away when I remove the files "Preferences panel" bury of the Cache in the user's library folder.

    The problem does not go away when I zap the PRAM.

    The problem does not go far if I replace the system preferences application from a recent backup.

    I was about to just try and re-install the MacOS, but thought I would try the forums first, since the Apple Support site said that it should not be necessary if the problem is only limited to a user's profile. I found a lot of entries in the forums for this issue dated a few years ago and have tried most of the solutions, but I don't think that you can repair the permissions of the disc more on El Capitan.

    Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

    Given all of the things you tried that don't work, over time it would take to troubleshoot more, you could restore OS X in 45 minutes to an hour on a broadband connection using OS X Recovery.

    Start your Mac while pressing the command + R keys. From there, you should be able to access the built in utility to verify and repair the disk from startup (if necessary) and OS X using OS X recoveryof restoration.

  • Turn the off "Stop" in the Apple menu?

    The power button on my MacBook Pro mid-2009 no longer works. I accidentally closed my Mac and would not restart. After searching the Web, I finally managed to restart it short-circuited something inside the computer. I would like to disable "Shut Down" in the Apple menu, so he won't be stopped by chance. Is this possible? If so, how do you?

    Hello

    It is possible, but by modifying the system files can be dangerous. First of all, make sure that you have a backup of your Mac.

    Here are some links that may interest you:

    Also, if I may give you some advice, would be better to replace your power button rather than play with the motherboard everytime your computer turns off...

  • Mac freezes or crashes with the last update of El Capitan

    I have an old iMac (mid 2007), Mac, but I have never had any problems with it until this last update of OS lock (Version OS X El Capitan 10.11.4, although I have returned to an earlier version recently to prevent locking without result).  I have 4 GB memory 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU graphics ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB.  Usually, I use Safari when this happens. It requires a restart of the hard to get it working again. I also have the Machine backup time, which I returned to an earlier version of the operating system at some point.  In general, the cursor still moves, but does not work no matter what windows or controls, that is why it requires the hard reboot.  The Mac reputation is on the line, since I told my friends of Windows that Mac will last at least a decade before they may need to be replaced, while Windows based computers need replacing every 5 years.  Is that what I can do perfectly well apart from the replacement of this computer?

    1. the present proceedings is a diagnostic test. It doesn't change anything for the better or worse and therefore, by itself, will not solve the problem. But with the help of the results of the tests, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.

    The test works on OS X 10.8 ("Mountain Lion") and later versions. I do not recommend running it on older versions of Mac OS X. It will do no harm, but it will not do not much good.

    Do not be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You make the tasks more complicated with the computer all the time.

    2. If you do not already have a current backup, please back up all the data before doing anything else. The backup is needed on the general principle, not because of what anyone in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you encounter any kind of problems with the computer, you can be more than the usual loss of data, if you follow these instructions or risk not.

    There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

    3 here is instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it doesn't change anything. It does not send or receive data over the network. There is no to generate a report on the State of the computer human readable. This report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents for me or someone else.

    You should ask yourself if you can believe me, and if it is safe to run a program at the request of a foreign national. In general, no, he's not sure, and I encourage it.

    In this case, however, there are ways for you to decide if the program is safe without having to trust me. First of all, you can read it. Unlike an application that download you and click to start, it is transparent, anyone familiar with the code can check what it does.

    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this site several times over a period of years. One of the million registered users to have read the script and set off the alarm if it was dangerous. Then I wouldn't be here now, and you would not be reading this message. See, e.g., this discussion.

    However, if you cannot satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, do not follow them. Ask other solutions.

    4. here is a general summary of what you need to do, if you decide to go forward:

    ☞ Copy text from a particular web page (not this one) to the Clipboard.

    ☞ Paste into the window to another application.

    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.

    ☞ Stick the results, which will be copied automatically, in a response on this page.

    These are not specific instructions; just a glimpse. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait and paste it again. You don't need to copy a second time.

    5. try to test in conditions that replicate the problem, to the extent possible. For example, if the computer is slow intermittently, run the test during a downturn.

    You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works pretty well in normal mode to test run, restart as usual before running it. If you can test only in safe mode, this.

    6. If you have more than one user and a user is affected by the problem, and the user is not an administrator, and then run the test twice: once under the affected user and one administrator. The results can be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer, when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you are unable to log in as an administrator, verify that the user concerned. More personal Mac have only one user, and in this case this section does not apply. Don't log in as root.

    7 load the linked web page (the site "Pastebin.") Press the combination of keys command + A to select all the text, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing command-C.

    8. start the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name ("Terminal") in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing Command + V, then press return. The text that you pasted should disappear immediately.

    9. If you logged in as an administrator, you will be prompted for your login password. Nothing displayed when you type. You won't see the usual points instead of the characters typed. Make sure that caps lock is turned off. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you make three unsuccessful attempts to enter the password, the test is still running, but it will produce less information. If you do not know the password, or if you prefer not to enter, just press back three times at the password prompt. Yet once again, the script will run.

    If the test takes much longer that usual to run because the computer is very slow, you can be prompted for your password a second time. The permission you grant by entering it will expire automatically after five minutes.

    If you are not logged as an administrator, you will be prompted for a password. The test will run. It just will not do anything that requires administrator privileges.

    10. the test may take a few minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that is abnormally slow may take more time to run the test. During execution, a series of lines is displayed in the Terminal window like this:

        Test started
            Part 1 of 4 done at: … sec        …        Part 4 of 4 done at: … sec
        The test results are on the Clipboard.
        Please close this window.

    The intervals between the parties will not be exactly the same, but they give an approximate indication of progress.

    Wait for the final message "Please close this window" appear - again, usually within a few minutes. If you don't see this message in about 30 minutes, the test probably won't be completed within a reasonable time. In this case, press the Ctrl + C key combination or the point command to stop it. Then go to the next step. You will have incomplete results, but still something.

    In order to get results, the test should be allowed to perform or be stopped manually as shown above. If you close the window of the Terminal, while the test is still running, the partial results will not be saved.

    11. when the test is completed, or if you manually stopped, leaving the Terminal. The results have been saved to the Clipboard automatically. They do not appear in the Terminal window. Please do not copy from there. All you have to do is start a response to this comment and then paste it again by pressing Command-V.

    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words «Start time.» If you do not see that, but rather to see a mass of gibberish, you wait for the message "close this window". Please wait and try again.

    If personal information, such as your name or e-mail address, appear in the results, make anonymous before posting. Usually it will be not necessary.

    12. in the validation of the results, you see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the software which manages this website. Thanks for posting the results of the tests on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

    If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

    13. When you are finished with the test, it is gone. There is nothing to uninstall or clean.

    14. This is a public forum and others can give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but all that you can not be. For others who choose to run it, I do not recommend that you view the results of test on this Web site unless I ask.

    15. the related UNIX shell script is a notice of copyright. ASC readers can copy for their personal use. The whole nor any part can be redistributed.

  • My feezes mouse since the last update of el capitan

    My mouse since the last feezes updated el capitan, especially as soon as the mouse hoovers an entry as a field research or field url browzer. If I disconnect and reconnect it works again but sporadically. How can I solve this problem, I can't work.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    Step 1

    The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is localized to your user account.

    Select the feedback connections* and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

    While signed in as a guest, you will have access to your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Do not be alarmed by this behavior; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

    Test while signed in as a guest. Same problem?

    After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

    * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create a new account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

    Step 2

    The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is caused by changes in the system of third party that load automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Please take this step regardless of the results of step 1.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • iCloud account stopped working in post after the last update to El Capitan 10.11.2

    Since the update to El Capitan 10.12.1, iCloud stopped sync properly on the Server mail account in Apple Mail. It can receive new messages when first opening the app, but it would stop working after that. He would not receive any new messages, would not synchronize changes such as marking messages, read or deleted. Often the situation of activity would show that he was stuck in the download Messages.

    This problem exists only on the computer that runs El Capitan 10.12.1. I tried the deactivation/activation of the account, deleting/adding the account, turn on/off settings of automatic detection. Nothing has worked.

    After searching for a solution, it turns out that there is a conflict with Avast Mac Security 2015. I have to turn off "Scan secure connections" to the iCloud account start working normally. This does not affect that iCloud email account. No problem with the other accounts of e-mail with secure connections.
