Can not open App Store, messages, contacts, face time, contacts, photo booth etc... only safari, iTunes, mail can be opened.... help me.

Lanny here are the startup key sequences on wired keyboards to know for future reference:
SHIFT - safe boot.
command-S single user mode to run fsck
command-R to run a recovery boot.
command-option-P-R to reset the PRAM on Macs younger than 4 years, or whose PRAM battery is younger.
command-option-O-F to boot into open firmware.
D key to boot hardware test on an Intel Mac - for pre-July 20, 2011 Macs, this means having the original installer discs.
Option key - Startup Manager.
Option = Alt key on Windows keyboards.
Command key may be Windows key on Windows keyboards, or cloverleaf or Apple logo key on Apple keyboards.

Problems with lost bookmarks, keypad not working, apps shutting down

Out of the blue, while I was still using Safari, all my bookmarks disappeared. No matter how many times I tried to add a bookmark it doesn't show up on my Bookmarks tab. I've tried adding a new folder on my bookmarks tab but it doesn't work either. I don't know what's going on. I've already reset my iPhone once because there were so many problems after I downloaded iOS4.
Also, I don't recall seeing "History" under the Bookmark tab but now it's there. The History option (along with the websites, etc.) comes and goes. Even after I delete everything from the Settings app, the history still shows up afterwards.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. If I absolutely need to (again), I'll reset my iPhone. I honestly didn't think I was going to have this many problems with iOS4. Everything was perfect before I downloaded the new operating system. I'm also experiencing other problems with iOS4 such as the keypad not working during a phone call and apps shutting down multiple times. Again, any help or suggestions would be great.

Hi, I have an Iphone 3g that is "Not" jailbroken, nor do I want it to be jailbroken. However, I had been having problems with it shuting down and not starting again. So, I tried to update and restore only to get an "error" 1015.
It is now stuck on "connect to itunes"
Any help would be great as this is a factory unlocked phone

Apple in no way blocks devices.
Carriers can blacklist devices from their network. If that is what has occurred, only the carrier can remove the blacklist. This should have nothing to do with your ability to activate the device and use it as an iPod.

I can not uninstall my old version of quick time. It says the file cane be found.

When I try to update quick time it says it need to shut down or uninstall the older version. Then a window pops up that says the installation file can not be found. What can I do to get updates?

many thanks, linda.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another QuickTime install. Here a link through to the installers on the Apple Website:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Can not find network when trying to face time

i can no longer use face time. I am able to use safari and send e mails but when I try to use face time a error message comes up and says network connection?

Hi there Mike,
If I understand correctly you are getting an error about your network connection when you try to use FaceTime on your iPad. I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you resolve this network issue. This section in particular.
If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage
If you see "Could not sign in, please check your network connection and try again" when signing in to your Apple ID
To resolve this issue, follow these steps.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Verify that you have a data connection by going towww.apple.comin Safari. You can complete Apple ID activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. If you need help connecting to Wi-Fi, followthese steps.
If you're using Wi-Fi, make sure that your local Wi-Fi network is using the recommended Wi-Fi settings.
Sign in to your accountand ensure that the primary email address and alternate e-mail addresses have been verified. If verification is pending, follow the instructions in the email Apple sent to that email address to complete verification. Or remove the e-mail addresses from the account.
If your Apple ID isn't an email address, you can change it. The Apple ID that you're using to activate FaceTime or iMessage must be an email address. Find more information onhow to change your Apple ID.
Tap Settings > General > Date & Time. Make sure that your iPhone is set to thecorrect time zone. If Set Automatically is on but the wrong time zone appears, turn Set Automatically off and choose the correct time zone, date, and time.
Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to a different Wi-Fi network (in a different location) if a cellular data connection is not available.
You can see that you've activated FaceTime and iMessage with your Apple ID by following these steps.
Tap Settings > FaceTime > You can be reached by FaceTime at:
Tap Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at:
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

TS1424 downloaded itunes but can not connect to store message reads error 11222

Trying to connect to itunes store using windows 7 professional. I have downloaded and re-installed so many times and still I can not connect. The help function is saying I am not connected to the internet. Error message 11222. I can not update my iphone with new software either. It says I do not have internet connection. Unfortunately I am not very computer savvy so no idea what operating system is.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

I can't send emails from Mail. I have three different accounts set up and have the same problem with all. The mail just sits in my outbox. All worked fine until Yosemite upgrade. Recent update has not fixed problem.

I have been experiencing the same problem. My mail app won't even open on my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. It will show as open, but the app will never actually show up.

How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

I am unable to update my App store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.Many a times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like Face book etc....Using ! phone 6plus .IOS8.3

What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

I am finding the ability to download previous purchases now shown on my iCloud account to be difficult. Music appears fine and most movies are OK but I have problems with all music videos included with album purchases. Any ideas?

Firstly, I purchased my first iPhone a few years ago, since then there have been a lot of apps released, a lot which I downloaded for free, tried and deleted from both my phone and my iTune 'Apps' Panel. What bothers me is when I do get a new iOS device, iPad and/or iPhone 5, and I don't want to just copy the back-up of my current iOS device to the new one, then to get the apps I want I will have to scroll through countless useless 'trash' applications in my purchase history to 'cloud download' the ones I want.
Just sync the apps you want from your computer. You don't need to redownload them directly on the iPhone Purchased list.
Will Apple be employing such a feature, a 'permanently delete/un-purchase' feature?
Dunno.

I purchased Microsoft Office for Mac through the Apple website.. I have downloaded all from the disk into my Mac, no problem with all the other Word etc, but Outlook is asking for the key number: I have put it in but its obviously not the right one...????

I purchased Microsoft Office for Mac through the Apple website..

In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

unfortunately - you can not. you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
does it have to be outlook? maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.
good luck
