My ipad is recognised as a camera when connected to my computer running on Windows XP. When my ipad has photos on it and I connect it to my computer it is initially recognised as a camera before my computer crashes.

When my ipad has photos on it and I connect it to my computer it is initially recognised as a camera before my computer crashes. Resulting in me having to reboot the system again and going through the disc checks to resolve errors. This has happened on several occasions. On previous occasions when I have not had any photos on my ipad it has connected to my computer without any problem.Is there a way of solving this problem without having to remove all of my photos from my ipad.

Being recognized as a camera is normal. Your computer sees the DCIM folder and doesn't know the difference between a 'real' camera and an iPad.
One way to stop it could be to tell windows explorer what to do. When you plug your iPad in do you see a little pop up window listing things to do with the device? If so, there should be an option to 'do nothing', which means you tell your computer 'hey, ignore this device'. Your iTUnes will still work when you connect them, the windows protocols that search for images, etc. should just let it be and hopefully stop the crashing.

  • Every since I updated to the latest Camera Raw and Photoshop I have the following issue: when I finish the photo in Raw and bring it into Photoshop I have white squares in the Photo. If I crop the photo the white square disappears until I zoom to enlarge

    Every since I updated to the latest Camera Raw and Photoshop I have the following issue: when I finish the photo in Raw and bring it into Photoshop I have white squares in the Photo. If I crop the photo the white square disappears until I zoom to enlarge it then the white square reappears. I do not believe the squares are saved

    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • How do I view the list of wireless routers my ipad has successfully authenticated with, and if possible when the last connection to each was made?

    How do I view the list of wireless routers my ipad has successfully authenticated with, and if possible when the last connection to each was made?

    The information is of course stored on the device, but currently thee is no way to get to it. It is unknown whether iOS stores the date info for each connection.
    As to whether a program can be written, its likely it can, but unlikely it can be done by anyone other than Apple, as by design, 3rd party Apps are not allowed to core system functions like that so its unlikely any App could list your connection history.
    As has been said to remove a single connection from the iPad you need to be in range of it, tap the circle on the right side of the router name, and then tap on Forget this network.

    Try:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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 turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

    This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple. Depending on how many user helpers are on-line, it may take several hours, or longer, to get a response.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and transfer to Photo Stream the caption is not transferred and only the original photo ID shows in Photo Stream.  Can you transfer a recaptioned description to Photo Stream?

    When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and then transfer to Photo Stream, the new caption is not transferred and the original Photo ID shows.  Is there any way to have the new caption show up in Photo Stream with a transferred photo?

    No.  Recaptioning only add a title to a photo and does not change the actual file name.  You could export the photo outside of iPhoto with the option to use the title as the new file name, reimport into iPhoto and then add to PhotoStream. But that may be more of a hassle than you wnat to go thru.

    Hey Basketsopugs,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with a third-party application after the iOS 7 update. The following article outlines the best procedure for troubleshooting this issue:

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • My iPad has the iTunes logo and USB cable on the screen. Can I still back up my music and photos?

    If you haven't already done so, its unlikely.
    You can try holding both the home and power buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
