My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7. The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not?

My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7. The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not? Both are updated to IOS 7.1.2

Hmm... It looks like they are gone forever now then. I can't think of any other way of getting them back apart from restoring from an iTunes or iCloud backup. Somebody else might be able to help but I think they're gone forever. I don't know why they were wiped from your iPod but it could be something to do with security. In the future I would recommend syncing to iTunes or iCloud to prevent it from happening again. You can always make a reservation at the Genius Bar and see what those guys can do because it seems that they are still there, they are just 'hidden' from view. http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/gb/en/techsupport/

My Ipad has stopped receiving emails today. It has IOS7 on it. The settings are correct but says "connection to the server failed" help!

My Ipad has stopped receiving emails today. It has IOS7 on it. The settings are correct but says "connection to the server failed" help!
It is the same accout that has been working find for years and just after I updated the software this has happened. My Mac is still receiving and sending via Outlook with the same account and settings. My Iphone 5C has also stopped and I tried deleting the account and adding again (via exchange as it's an exchange accout) the same way I always do and it won't even recognise it to add the settings.
So annoying. Can anyone help?

Trying to publsh changes to my website. I get a message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider." I did, and all my settings are correct, but still cannot publish

Any other ideas?

Most likely you are suffering from a bug in iWeb that doesn't let you publish websites if an image you have added to your site begins with space. You can either search for that image and remove it.

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Ipad photobooth not working, shows curtain closing but camera seems to be off

ipad photobooth not working, shows curtain closing but camera seems to be off

Have you tried closing the Camera app completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My outgoing email suddenly quit working. Settings are correct, but says server unable to send. Can receive fine. This happened on both Iphone

My outgoing email suddendly stopped working. Happened first on my IPhone, msgs were stuck in outbox. This self-corrected, and now my Mac Pro will not send email. It says server not able to send, but I can receive fine. No changes were made. Settings are correct. Any ideas what's wrong?

OK, I thought you'd like to know that I figured it out! Yea.
I reasoned since my iphone is now sending, I would check to see if the exact same settings in the advanced mail area were the same.
The port on my phone was 110, but in advanced mail area on the mac it was 995/SSL.
I clicked on that and it defaulted to 110.
But what is strange is the 110 port is supposed to be for incoming mail (which I was getting fine even tho it had the 995 port) and the smtp outgoing I thought was a defaulted 25 port.
Anyway, when I changed the mac to the 110 port in advanced area, the mail in outbox was immediately sent.
I have absolutely no idea how the port server was changed to 995 SSL on the mac, since no one but myself uses this computer and I certainly didn't change it. Also, it doesn't at all explain the iphone doing the exact same thing a week ago, even tho that port said 110 when I checked. Very strange indeed, but thanks for the help anyone who is reading this and I hope this helps anyone else having a similar problem....

HT201349 I have my iPad and iPhone set up as described but I cannot send or receive SMS texts on my iPad only imessages.

I have my iPad and iPhone set up for messaging and facetime, but I cannot receive or send SMS texts with the iPad even when the iPhone is on. I can receive imessages. Is there something I am missing?

Hello tonys4004,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you'd like to set up your iOS devices for SMS using Continuity, please see the information outlined below.
SMS
With Continuity, all the SMS and MMS text messages you send and receive on your iPhone also appear on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch. Even if the person you’re communicating with doesn’t have an iPhone. And regardless of what phone they have, you can reply from whichever device is closest to you, including your iPad or Mac. You can also initiate a conversation by clicking a phone number in Safari, Contacts, or Calendar.
To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
On your iPhone:
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
Take care,
Alex H.

OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages

I am beginning to frequently get a message that an email could not be sent and to retry or cancel but all settings are correct and it usually sends a 2nd time

Have been using Thunderbird for years and it has worked just fine. Have not made any changes to any of the settings. My boyfriend also used T'bird for years but last year it stopped sending messages and he finally had to stop using it. My T/bird is beginning to act the way his did. I will write a message and press send and then a window will open saying the message couldn't be sent and to retry or cancel. Usually a retry will work. Sometimes I get a message asking me to enter my password (I don't even think I have one or if I do I don't know what it is because I have never logged in to send email). So I'm worried that my T/bird program is beginning to fail like his did. I don't want to lose the use of the program and all my saved emails and addresses, mail groups, etc. My OS is Windows 7.

That sounds exactly like an issue that has plagued McAfee users for around a year.
Try disabling email scanning in your anti virus program.

After downloading iOS5 on iPhone 4, the volume buttons and switch on phone's side won't work? All "Settings" are correct, but phone is completely silenced at all times. Solution?

has anyone solve this problem? i upgraded my iphone 4 to 5.1.1 and now i can see only ""We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care."
i tried mani sim card, laptops, wifi. but for 7 days the problem is still exist....
Please help me!!!

Outgoing server settings entered correctly but will not update and tries to send under old settings

I can receive all of my emails correctly but can not send any emails. I have set up under a different program and it works fine. I have tried to update thunderbird by its settings and it does not provide any options?? I am running ubuntu 14.04lts.
My outgoing mail settings are correct but when thunderbird tries to send it uses old settings and does not update to the new mail server.

I can use a secondary account but not my primary yahoo.verizon account. Verified all settings are correct but the password was erased. After re-entering password a message says I have to verify my password by entering it at www.yahoo.com. However, I DO NOT have a Yahoo email account.
