My iPhone is not receiving mail but these messages continue to flash at the bottom of the screen: Checking for messages, Updated just now, checking for messages, etc. After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received

My iPhone is not receiving mail but the following messages continue to flash over and over at the bottom of the screen: "Checking for messages, Updated just now, Checking for messages", etc. After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received and then the "Checking for Messages," etc. starts back again. I turned the phone off for 30+ minutes and also tried to reset it, but the problem continues. Any ideas on how to solve the problem?

Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

Does it happen with the apps that came with the iPod?
Does it happen with all apps you have downloaded/installed?
Have you ried deleting the apps and redownload/install the apps? You will not be charged again if you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.
Next would be to restore from backup
Last would be to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

Good to know that, but what can I do to get the mail and contacts downloaded from Icloud onto my Iphone? I am told that the password needs to be reset and I have erased and reset it 3x's already? Should I Restore All Settings or Restore Network Settings or will that result in a situation where I have to have it re-unlocked again? GRACIAS!

"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

When trying to update Adobe Flash the download box pops up but it never lists the Adobe update file. Meanwhile a prompt at the bottom of my screen pops up and says "download complete"

Firefox 6.0.2
Windows XP
no matter how I try to update the download never shows up in the downloads box. A box pops up at the bottom of my screen and says "all downloads finished" but it never shows up in my downloads list so I am never given the option to "run".
I was able to find it manually in the download list but I have no idea why it will not pull up correctly when doing an auto update.

AA9 is not compatible with Reader. It is probably best to uninstall Reader and then repair AA9 (Help>Repair). Also, when you install you should generally be logged in as the administrator and have anti-virus disabled.
For the updates, it may be best to simply go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows, download the updates, and install them in order. A new system may be the problem, particularly if it is Win8 and 64 bit, you did not say. For 64-bit systems, the updates are critical (I think AA9 works on 64-bit systems after the updates). For AA X, it required 10.1 for 64-bits.
Also, if you updated OFFICE, then expect to only print to the Adobe PDF printer. AA9 does not work with PDF Maker on the newer versions of OFFICE.
If you uninstall AA9 for some reason (I don't recommend except as a last resort), then be sure to remove the Acrobat folder and run the cleaner (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) before a reboot and reinstall.

IPhone status is Updated just now but a lot of images are grey placeholders

Good part: I have a big library (~50K photos and ~1K videos). Switched to iCloud Photos on all my macs, work ok, took several days to upload everything but look good.
Bad part: on my iPhone I also enabled iCloud Photos Library (optimized storage), for some time it was showing "Preparing...", then "Downloading..." but now it says "Updated just now", like it's done. But the problem is that a lot of images are just grey placeholders and convert to an image only when I open specific Moment and wait there. Also, the phone shows spinner at the top all the time, like it's downloading something. And the things spinning both in Wi-Fi and LTE.
It looks like the Photos app on iPhones continues downloading, while system preferences status says it's all good.
This is how it looks, to make it clear - status is "Updated just now", but there are a lot of empty placeholders.
Any comments?

If add-ons are so important to you, remember to check for add-on compatibility before upgrading. (See image below)
Bookmark your add-ons pages (addons.mozilla.org) and check their compatibility before upgrading Firefox.
The other option is to [[Install an older version of Firefox]] compatible with your add-ons.
Also read:
* [[Re-enable add-ons that were disabled when updating Firefox]]

Keep in mind that other browsers have updates too, which may or may not break their add-on compatibility.

Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

TS3297 hi. I am trying to change my billing address in itunes but it is not letting me do this. When I go to edit, I see only the 'cancel' button at the bottom of the page, no 'done' button to make changes. Why? I am a US registered itunes user but live o

hi all. Hope someone can help me because I'm getting very frustrated and not finding answers! I am trying to change my billing address in my itunes store account, but itunes is not allowing me to do this. At the bottom of the page, I only get the 'cancel' button, no 'done' button to make changes. I am using an HP mini, and am a registered US itunes account holder, living outside the US right now (East Timor to be precise).
Why won't the store let me change my info? I'm not having any other problems.

The possible reasons are:
1. Store credits in your account
2. Pending downloads

How do I go about getting the product serial number to register my product as well as install my product. I bought it with a product box. On the software disc sleeve, there is a series of numbers pasted at the bottom of the sleeves but this is not valid

How do I go about getting the product serial number to register my product as well as install my product. I bought it with a product box. On the software disc sleeve, there is a series of numbers pasted at the bottom of the sleeves but this is not valid. When I tried to type this in for registration, it does register as this numbers also contain letters in it. Apparently the registration boxes accept numbers only. What do I do with a useless product for which I have paid good money for it?????

This is the simple solution which was offered to me when I tried to get the serial code on line.
The box and disc sleeve do not contain a series with 24 numbers which I presume is the product code to install.
I tried to redeem the registration code by following what they recommended, but inevitably it gets to the page that showed the registration boxes that need 24 serial numbers and I got stuck again.
This product is so different what my previous experiences of other software products where I just enter the serial number straight from the disc sleeve and then I got registered and go on to use the software.
I is really frustrating, spending the last two hours trying to get my product going....
