I was trying to update my ipad operating system and I thought it was done but when I unplugged it from my computer the ipad has the apple logo and a long hollow oval under the logo and I can't get anything to work. Any suggestions?

I was trying to update my ipad operating system and I thought it was done. When I disconnected it from my computer the ipad went blank then the apple logo appeared midscreen with an elongated oval across the screen under it. Now nothing on the ipad works. I think it was backed up on my computer but I can't find anything that will allow me to sync the two or regain functionality on my ipad. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I would put the ipad in recovery mode and redo the update, once that is done you could restore the ipad from your backup and you would not lose any data.

Itunes does not recognize my 6th generation ipod nano. I installed, unintalled the progam...can't get it to work. any suggestions?

can't get my itunes to recognize my 6th generation nano. I have installed/uninstalled. Restarted and I can't get it to work. Any suggestions?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

If you can Mark, take your iMac to an Apple Store or Apple certified repair provider.
IMHO, better to let Apple take care of this then inserting anything else in the slot that may damge the optical drive.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The iPad 1 is only able to do basic AirPlay, many providers of programming have blocked their apps from working with AirPlay.

Before beginning the download, try temporarily disabling your antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required with the secure OS your computer is running.

Some of my Apps don't connect to the internet. For example, NY Times Web App, says it can't connect. But when I access it from Safari it does. I have a number of Apps like this. I've removed and reinstalled and it doesn't help. Please help!

Thank you.

On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP. In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.

TS1589 Had to replace our Airport Extreme when it stopped working (still under warranty). Now I can't get anything but flashing amber light. Airport utility says "error occurred" when I try to get it set up.

Had to replace our Airport Extreme (802.11n) and now can't get anything but flashing amber light. Have gone the route of turning off modem (overnight), restarting everything this morning and at least when I turned on the laptop (no desktop) the Airport Utility opened automatically. I put in the info for the Airport Extreme that we had previously (password, etc) but it couldn't connect (said error occurred). I would assume this is because of the flashing amber light?

I am having a similar issue. However I've had my airport express for over 3 years. Yesterday we had to reset the router as it wasn't broadcasting.
Today having same issue so we reset the router again. And now still blinking amber. When I go to the Airport Utility I can't even go to the Manual Setup as I'm getting the Error 4. Internet works fine as the router and modem are hooked up to my computer via Ethernet cable.
I did a factory reset and the AE is broadcasting again. but I can't get in to protect the network. And it's still blinking amber.
Any thoughts would be great.

Artist spent alot and can not get anything to work

I thought it would be strait forward; but it is more like a backwards tango!
OK, I can't get the media once down loaded from my cam to load into final cut.
I have a JVC GZ-HD7U that records in Mpeg2 and when I down load from the cam to my desk it reads Mov00?.TOD. When I import this to Final it reads " unknown file format ( I may be off on the wordage;I am bit madddd at the moment)
Maybe there is some one out there using the same set up as me? What would be cool, is you have a easy answer.
My new MacBookpro has Quicktime and Jvc I did their thing to this plus Final cut offered a down load of it. You would think after all this and how much I have spent I could take over the world with this program; but oh no, I even tried ctrl clicking the media I downloaded in Quicktime (the only place I could view it but do nothing with it) and saved it as a QT movie.
Then after converting it to quick time media; but no where near the 3.6 GB I downloaded, Did it load into final cut. Then once there no image, nothing, zip, nota, ssooooo confused.!!!
I have watched the dvd tutorial and read the pdf etc. Still lost
If any one can help or direct me in there right direction, I would be relatively thank for a long time!!
Why doesn't final cut load and read TOD or work with QT from it. What a waist. I am not any where near Rich and could return this all now due to the way I feel and i am in my 30 day period with it all.....a darn shame
Help

Unfortunately, Ian is correct. Your options at this point are
1) return the camera for a tape-based one (best option if you can)
2) search the discussions at length to see if anyone else has found a workaround
3) buy iLife 08 and use iMovie to import your clips, then transfer them from iMovie to FCE. iMovie 08 has the ability to capture off card-based cameras.

Help! I unplugged my Ipod and now I can't get anything to work...

So, I made a mistake. I unplugged my ipod, when it said "do not disconnect".
Now, when I plug it in to my laptop, Itunes freezes up, and doesn't sync.
That means I can't restore the factory settings.
Plus, everytime I plug it in now, it says "do not disconnect."
What should I do? Should I reformat the Ipod drive? (it's an Ipod Photo)
Any help appreciated.

Did you get a response with a solution? i'm having the same problem, and my iPod mini won't connect to my car with the USB cable, which I think is related to the same problem. My iPod mini screen reads "do not disconnect" when it is plugged into my computer and I can only access my music w/ iTunes. Please let me know what you found out. I also have a nano, which is doing the same thing. Could be my computer is corrupted?
Thx,

Have you tried holding the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see the Apple logo to reset it?

Can't get anything to work on G3 Blue & White

First off I was given a mac G3 without a hard drive, I installed a Western Digital 20gb hard drive into the machine. I have a copy of OS X panther that came with it but im not sure if it belongs to this machine. However, when I booted up the machine to the CD by pressing C the screen comes up with a grey screen with a dark grey apple in the middle and it just stays there. I am a "first time" mac user I am so used to PC's. I tried to boot to the disk so I could perform "Disk utility" and format the hard drive as it used to be a hard drive out of PC.
Next issue as I thought it was the hard drive and replaced it with a unformatted hard drive. and tried to use a restore software dick from a G3 Then the screen showed a "happy mac on a folder with a blinking question mark"
so I tried holding down optioncommand+pr" to reset the PRAM. So I rebooted trying to boot to cd and still the blinking question mark comes up.
Liek I said before not knowing mac or osx I need help. I want to try out this mac before I make the plunge to buy a G5 or better.
Im stuck....anyone know anything?

Any Mac that has been off power for a while is likely to have a dead PRAM battery. So holding down Command option P R at startup, and continuing to hold those four keys until you have heard 4 chimes is a good plan. This will set the parameters to their factory defaults, which will hold until the power is removed. A properly-functioning battery will maintain them across power outages.
After the fourth chime, if you then quickly release the 4 keys and hold down only the C key, it should try to boot from the CD. It may seem to take forever to do this. The "Smiling Mac" is an indication that good boot blocks were found on a Boot device. The Dark Gray Apple is not present inside the Mac at startup, and must be loaded from a Boot device. Its appearance is a sign that the Mac is attempting to boot Mac OS X. You should shortly see the 12-petal "flower" or "gear" or "clock" thing spinning around.
Mac OS X 10.3 Panther will be a very nice OS for this Mac. You may be able to install with less RAM, but it will ultimately need 256 MB or more.
The flashing question mark says Either: it could not find the preferred OS Type, in the preferred version, on the preferred Boot Device -OR- the PRAM where all those preferences are stored has become corrupted.

HT204053 I just purchased more storage space(10gb) for iPAD, but when I attempted to download an app An error message appeared prompting me to buy more storage. according to my ICloud I have 15gb available. Does anyone have any suggestions

I purchased more storage space(10gb)for my IPAD,but when I attempted to download an app an error message prompted me to purchase more storage.According to my ICloud I have 15gbavailable Any suggestions Help!!!

If you are trying to download an app and get an error about not enough memory, it's talking about memory on your iPad, not in iCloud. I don't know what you mean by purchasing more storage space for your iPad, you can't add more memory to a device. You may have bought more memory in iCloud, but that's not going to fix your current problem. You need to delete songs or video, or some other large files from your iPad to make room for a new download.

Can't get anything to work with printer set up

Hi,
I just purchased the Airport Extreme earlier this week and I am trying to set up my HP Deskjet 3930. Unfortunatley, I am really confused. I currently have the printer connected to my PC, which runs on Windows XP, through the USB port. I also have a MacBook, which I also just purchased last week.
When I hook it up the printer up to Airport Extreme, nothing happens. Bonjour is downloaded on my PC, but how do you manually start it up if nothing appears when you plug your printed into the Airport Extreme?
Also, there is no Printer Setup Utility option on the MacBook. None of the insturctions that I followed in the handbook have helped. Any suggestions?

This means this printer does not support USB network printing.
Further checking shows this printer uses (Lightweight Imaging Device Interface) LIDIL for printing. A few years back, HP, in order to save cost, produced a number of printers without any CPU inside, all the controls are host-based, and require a direct USB connection to the computer.
The only way to network this printer is to connect to an OS like WIndows or OS X and use the printer sharing function from the OS.

Can't get anything to work

I have just build a K7N2 Delta L system with an AMD 2600+ CPU.
My problem is that I don't seem to be getting any power to my drives. I have 2 HDD's and 2CD/DVD ROMs installed, but even when I unplug all but one drive, I still get nothing!
The PSU is brand new (300W).
Please help!!!

If you have a volt meter you could measure the power on the plug that fits into the drive from the powersupply. Its the 4 prong plug. That 300w supply will most likely not do it for you . go bigger Much bigger like 450w if ya can.
If you do measure make sure all drives are connected then probe one of the plugs. Are the fans running? is the monitor lighting up ? what happens when you hit the delete key as the system posts. will cmos menu appear?
does the lights on the front of the cd/dvds light?what happens whan you push the eject button on those drives?
