Cant get it to clear. Any advice?

Try to boot in Safe mode, see if you are able: Hold down shift and then power on. For wireless keyboards, hold down shift after the chime.

Hi, just bought my daughter an Iphone 4s and I can't get it to let her on youtube, Facebook etc., keeps saying no internet connection. My husband and I have 3G smartphones and we can get on them on ours, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Also, my other daughter has the same phone and has no trouble getting on these sites either. Any information to help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
Well, did you activate this new phone?

Not sure what I did but all of a sudden everything I touch has a voice attached to it. For instance, if I touch an icon it tells me out loud what the icon is and tells me to double click it. ***??? Help!
Connect your iPhone to your computer via its USB cable and select it in the left column of iTunes.
Select the "Summary" tab, scroll to the bottom and click the "Configure Universal Access" button.
Disable "VoiceOver" and click the "OK" button.
Click the "Sync" button at the bottom-right. -
Not sure what I did but projects are not showing up in the video window as i skim... Event footage does but project footage has sound but the video screen is gray... How do I get the vido to show in the viewer?
So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right? I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server. You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them. Then
do an install from the console. When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.

1. Ensure agent push account has local admin rights
2. Firewall is blocking NetBIOS access. If Windows 2008 firewall is enabled, ensure “Remote Administration (RPC)” rule is enabled/allowed. We need port 135 (RPC) and the DCOM port range opened for console push through a firewall.
3. Inspect WMI service, health, and rebuild repository if necessary
4. Firewall is blocking ICMP (Live OneCare)
5. DNS incorrect

I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV? I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV. This feature seems to be lost in the Mountain Lion upgrade. Did Apple feel that once Mountain Lion came out that EVERYONE would have Apple TV? There are no settings in System Preferences/Display like there used to be...only for AirPlay Mirroring.
Running a cable to the HDMI port is still supported. (and still works on mine).
If the Arrangement tab in System Preferences > Displays isn't present then it doesn't recognize the physical connection. Double check all cables. If that doesn't work try a PRAM reset:

I installed Mountain Lion OS on my Mac Book Pro and now WORD for Mac and Fluenz Spanish program do not work. How do I reinstall original OS and scrap ML?
ThanksMy previous answer still stands: Restore from your backup taken before you upgaded to Mountain Lion. For example, a Time Machine backup, a Carbon Copy Cloner clone, or a commercial backup service. Not the disk that came with your computer (which is how I read "OS back up disk").
If you reinstall the original OS from the disk that came with your computer, it will wipe out everything on your computer. (The installer won't install an older OS over a newer one, so you'll have to wipe the disk first.) Then you'll need to restore your data from your backup and reinstall applications like Word. -
I'm currently running Mountain Lion. Is it recommended to update to Mavericks first before I would update to the new Yosemite this coming Fall?

I would recommend that you do neither unless there's some feature in Yosemite that you absolutely must have. With broad adoption (i.e., after the OS is released to the public), all kinds of problems surface which get fixed in updates. You can take advantage of their discovery and resolution by giving the OS a chance to mature. Since you're asking about going to Mavericks, which has already been out for eight months, there was clearly not that much exciting (except, perhaps, the price) to encourage an upgrade, so staying put was prudent. Once Yosemite's wrinkles are ironed out, you'll be able to jump straight to it, after you make a bootable backup of your ML partition of course, so that you can always retreat if necessary. -
HT201363 my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode which i don't know
my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode whcih i don't know what should i do now to start operating
Hey sunny1008,
Thanks for the question. The following article provides some solutions if you are having issues with passcode lock:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
Thanks,

i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?
First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier. -
cannot connect to home wi fi with ipod touch , its an older touch that I received from grandson . in the house he had used my home wi fi . he had gotten a newer one. not sure what i am doing wrong . network is showing when i tap onto it it brings me to ip address page not to where I would put in password
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

why is my new ipad asking for a long password when I set up a 4 digit code??
You will most probably have to force your iPad into Recovery Mode to remove passcode.
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary. -

just uploaded ios 7.0.4 on phone after it was finished it asked for apple ID password for my ex's appleID , how can I change this id on phone to my apple ID seen some old messages but they were for older versions of firmware revision. Im in barbados and cant access local weather or use locating software because I couldnt enable without password and she doesnt remember it!!
thanks jdHey there JohnDent,
It sounds like your phone is associated with another Apple ID and so you cannot finish setting it up. I found this information for you from the article named:
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
If the previous owner is with you and can access the device
Ask them to enter their Apple ID and password on the Activate iPhone screen (shown above) to remove the device from their account. You can then proceed through the rest of the device setup process.
If the previous owner is not present
Contact them and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
Choose the device from their Find My iPhone device list by clicking All Devices and selecting the correct device.
Click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
After the device has been removed from the previous owner’s account, turn it off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button located on the top right side of the device. Then restart your device and proceed with device setup as you would normally.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling
