Problem with iPad and version 10.4.11

I just received an iPad as a gift but I have have been unable to sync it with my computer. To remedy this, I purchased Mac OS X version 10.6, only to find that it is not compatible with my computer. I have not been able to find a version 10.5 on-line to download. Is there any other way to set up an iPad? I cannot afford to buy a new computer at this time.

Using a friend's computer going to the Apple store to activate is fine but it's not going to be practical in the long term. In order to download OS updates and iTunes content a long term solution will be needed. The only way to do this is to acquire a copy of 10.5. As it's been discontinued now Ebay would probably be the best option. It's possible you may be able to get a copy from Apple customer service for a nominal fee.

  • Problems with iPad and iPhone... new appointments in grey color after creating on my book...

    I have some problems with Calendar application on my iPhone and iPad under iOS 6 with Microsoft Exchange 2010 accounts
    When I create new appointment on my MacBook in iCal or in Outlook when new appointment have one or more recipients then after synchronization on my mobile devices I see new appointment in grey color but not in color of my calendar... color changes to right color only after saving some changes to appointment on mobile device but only on this device

    but you should have a backup in itunes.
    Every time you sync your iOS device iTunes creates a backup. go check if its there, iTunes Preferences >Devices. and there you should see if you have a backup, and in case from which date the backup is.
    And ofcourse you can get your icloud data back by just logging in with your Appleid under icloud in settings on the iphone.
    But anyway, if the iPhone works when you restor it as new: try adding your backup, and see if the issue comes back. And experiment with your backup and try to work out what is causing the issue, my guess is that its some app!   Good Luck!

  • Problem with Ipad and Home Sharing - Please Chime In

    Just got my ipad and love it.  But, can't seem to get home sharing working.  I have set it up and can successfully share between two different computers on the network.  I set up the ipad in settings/ipod and it doesn't give me an error message (which I can force with a bad password), so it seems to be talking to the cloud (plus the ipad is generally able to hit the internet and the internal network is free of firewalls.  But, when I go to the ipod icon I don't see any little house on the "library bar".  Right now, I should even see two (for both computers that can see each other and are sharing.  What am I missing here?  Any suggestions?  I've already upgraded to the newest itunes and even tried a new itunes account, to no avail.  Restarted the ipad, etc. 
    I need your ideas.  Thanks.

    OK. Done. But I still do not understand how I ended up with the duplicates ?

  • Problems with ipad and app sync

    I bought a couple of apps with my ipad, and when I connect it to my imac, itunes tells me that these apps cannot be transferred to the computer because it´s not activated. But when I activate it, it tells me that it is already activated. I´m using only one appleID. I don´t know what to do.I bought keynote for ipad with my imac and I can´t transfer it to my ipad. I would be happy if someone can help me.

    I had a bit of this a little while ago, then it went away. I kept activating the iMac in iTunes, and eventually it shut up.
    Try restarting the iPad, and if that doesn't work, back it up and do a Restore
    To get Keynote on the iPad, in the interim go to the App Store on iPad, and check Purchases - keynote should show up there and you can download it.

  • Problems with saving and versions

    i know you're all preparing popcorn for the iPhone release, but maybe one or two have got a minute to read this and help me
    i'm using lion for a while, and ever since i'm losing files.
    my problem is not the system, maybe i just didn't get how to use it, but i'm blaming having lost my files. :/
    so, there's versions, and autosave. but simetimes i dran 'n drop a file i'm working on trom my taskbar (the little icon next to the filename) to my desktop. sometimes, but not always, it's corrupted. i don't always notice right away, so when i close the document (without saving of course) it's just a file icon, but there is no possible way to open it without getting a message.
    i don't know if i'm not using it right, but "they" say you don't have to save your files, they say your files are saving versions, but so many times i can't go back to a version.
    also i'm using a lot of photoshop, and just now something happened, and not for the first time:
    i opened up a .psd that i was working on yesterday. when i wanted to save it (with crtl-S), it said "Could not save *documentname*.psd because the file is already in use or was left open."
    of course the file is in use and open. how does the mufassa expect me to save a file without opening it up? and why would i save a file without using it before? this is not the first time, and i always have to save it using a different name, and then delete the old file...
    i might have a thinking problem, but maybe you can still help me out?
    can someone update me on how to optimize my workflow, so i can spend more time working, and less time looking for files or restarting documents?
    thx and peace,
    Marc

    Hi there
    I'm a bit perplexed and more than a bit concerned with something you said:
    mheilZP wrote:
    The other person I worked with had no problems accessing and saving new versions of the file, but for some reason it fouled up on me. I've never had this happen before and was wondering why it happened and what I should do to avoid it happening again.
    This seems to infer that you are sharing the same project with another person? If I'm correct in my understanding, there are two major things wrong here.
    1. You cannot share a project in a fashion where two or more users make edits to it at the same time. Doing so is an open invitation to disaster.
    2. In order for two or more users to have access to the same Captivate project, it would have to exist on a network drive. Editing projects while they are stored on a network resource is another open invitation to disaster.
    The bottom line here is that Captivate files must be edited from the local C drive by a single author. You may copy them to a network location for the purposes of backing them up, but that's it.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Strange and Sudden Problem With Ipad and Itunes

    Hey all, have been searching online and haven't found an answer to this problem... so any help would be very much appreciated!
    My girlfriend's father gave us an IPad as a very generous present several months ago. He had hooked it up to his computer to play with it a bit before handing it over, so of course his ITunes info was present when I plugged it into my computer. No problem: I went into the setting and changed everything, sync'ed it up, etc.
    No problems until last week.
    I saw I needed to update some apps. I went into the Ipad's App Store. It prompted me for my ITunes username and password. I entered it, and it let me continue. I went to update my apps, and it prompted me a second time: this time suddenly asking for my gf's father's password!
    I have never had this problem before (use the ipad all the time, etc). As far as troubleshooting, I have so far:
    1) Gone into the ipad settings, signed out of my username, signed back in, etc.
    2) Signed out of the IPad's itunes in settings, gone into my computer's Itunes and signed out... then plugged Ipad into computer and signed back in to both Itunes at the same time.
    But still, the same thing happens.... prompts me for MY itunes password upon just entering the App Store.... then asking for my gf's father's password the moment I try to download something.
    Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    In order to resolve this, you need to do the following:
    1) Go back to your girlfriend's father's computer where the iPad was first synced.
    2.) Plug the iPad in to the computer.
    3.) Sign out of your dad's iTunes Store account via iTunes.
    4.) Then, reboot the iPad.
    That should fix the issue.

  • I'm at the end of my tether with not being able to access itunes which I could do perfectly well before! Now my laptop won't even connect to the internet despite the connection at the hub being excellent! No problem with ipad and phone - only windows!

    I'm tired of this problem of not being able to access itunes on my laptop and now no internet access despite connection and strength being excellent. What are windows playing at? Worked perfectly well until recently. Very frustrating and time consuming!

    Just a few lines to assure you you are not alone regarding speed delivery. By no means.
    I'm on Infinity 2 with HH5 - was virtually guaranteed 63 d/l and told possibly even up to 78. My actual speeds are nearer 15 (yes 15!) to 28 d/l if I am lucky. I've played all the obligatory games of checking and posting and reviewing my HH stats - and of course wasting my time with India "help" customer services who are instructed to read from a script of inane generalities which are usually completely irrelevant and have no connection whatsoever with a user's Specific problem.
    It more often than not turns out that the automated monitoring system imposes a software called DLM = Digital Line Management = which (with the endless excuse of improving line stability) increases noise margins and drastically reduces speed. This can kick in pretty rapidly and can take at least 3 to 4 days to modify itself - if indeed at all!!! Usually an Openreach engineer visit is then needed - who will re-set the Profile to what it is you are supposed to be paying for ..... then of course it is totally possible that DLM will re-emerge and the same old cycle of troubles will have to be endured.
    We pay in good faith at the outset on the back of so many promises - only to be cynically let down and dismissed once signed up. It is quite wrong we have to continually argue our case to (try) to get anywhere and are always reminded that we are tied into contracts with expensive escape clauses - or that an engineer's visit is only free IF it is proved the fault is not inside your house - which it very rarely is! This is often more an Ordeal than a subscribed service. Superfast reliable Broadband in the UK ? Ha!

  • Getting error and connection problems with iPad and DLink DI-634M router

    We're seeing spotty connectivity from our iPad - sometimes it works fine, other times it can't get to any websites. Looking at our wireless router logs, I found a bunch of messages like this for the iPad's address:
    "Blocked incoming TCP packet from 192.168.0.140:52023 to 74.125.0.222:80 with unexpected acknowledgement 3307518865 (expected 3307530074 to 3307595610)"
    What does this indicate and how can I fix it?
    Searching a bit, I found recommendations to disable SPI on the router's firewall, but I don't see any option for doing that on the DI-634M's admin pages.
    Any help appreciated - thanks.

  • Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....

    Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....is there some trick I am missing or do I need to make an appointment with a genius...

    I have the MacIntosh volume and the Boot Camp partition only.  I know that when I installed Lion, I had to go through a whole back-up and recovery of Windows and then re-format the drive. 
    The tech at the Apple Store had a previous life as a MSCE and was very helpful.  I believe he even said that I should not have htis problem with Mountain Lion which is why they gave me the flash with it onboard.  I was in the process of starting a new job when I went to Lion, so I have waited to do this next and probably last upgrade to this old MBP since I doubt Apple will support this MBP in Maverick. 
    I do not have another installation, so that is not an option.  I will try to create an external, I have plenty of hard drives around and see if I can get it done that way.  It might take me a week or two to get back to it, but I will comment back upon completion of that effort.  Thanks for your help....Dave Iverson

    I'm having problems with FlashPlayerPlugin and plugin-container. They keep starting up and bogging down the system. This has been a recent occurrance. I've made sure that I have the latest version. I notice the problem when I am opening some applicatio, and it freezes. If I go to Task Manager, I can see the two Adobe apps sucking up CPU cycles. If I end the processes, then the other apps continue. Today, I uninstalled FlashPlayerPluginqand plugin-container. All day since I have had no freezing of an app. What should I do to correct the problem?

    Here's an explanation of what those processes are.

    I'm curious about what you did to uninstall just those.
