TS1317 Having problem connecting wi-fi to my Mac pro. Followed all the steps. Any suggestions of what I can try next?

Hi, Having problem connecting my Mac Pro to Wi-Fi. Followed all the steps. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi Sandra,
Have you tried this?
Instead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.

I upgraded my iMac to Lion and now it won't keep a wireless connection. Any suggestions on what I can try?

Upgraded my 27" iMac (4 GB memore/3.2 GHz Intel Core i3) to Lion 10.7 and now it won't keep a connection to my wireless. I've had to shift over to working on my MacBook Pro which is also upgraded to Lion but showing no problems whatsoever.
I bought the iMac this summer, refurbished from Apple. I've also never been able to get it to play video ... might or might not be related to the problem here. (yes, I've updated the silverlight)
Any suggestions on what it might be or what I can try?

Have you used Software Update to update to 10.7.1. That update was suppose to fix some WiFi Issues. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4764

Hello. I have an iphone 5s and i can not activate imessage nor facetime. I followed all the steps provided by the apple page and still i can not make it connect. The phone is connected to wifi at all times and has ios 8.

Hello. I have an iphone 5s and i can not activate imessage nor facetime. I followed all the steps provided by the apple page and still i can not make it connect. The phone is connected to wifi at all times and has ios 8.

Can you send SMS by using the mobile data network instead of Wi-Fi? I had the same problem setting up my 5s from a backup of my 4s. Only after I sent an SMS via mobile data network, somehow iMessage and FaceTime got activated a couple of minutes later without me doing anything else.
I even changed my Apple ID password, because at one point I could not log into my account when iMessage asked for my account details.
If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage - Apple Support

HT4972 I have iphone 4 and have followed all the steps, the update will not go past "connect to itunes"

I have iphone 4 and have followed all the steps to update and cannot get past "connect to Itunes"

Hey soozeeC
Use iTunes to update it. Download the latest version and install it. Once it is plugged in, it will ask if you want to update your iPhone to iOS 7. If that does not work then click restore.

I just recently purchased the iPad wireless keyboard and I've followed all the steps, but everytime I type in the code to pair it, it says it cannot be paired. I've kept in close range, pushed the connect but it won't connect. What do I do?

AS Tesserax said you must
disconnect your laptop from the existing wifi network
Connect to the default Apple Networkxxxxxxxxx - that is your AEX open network
Go to the Airport Utility and set the AEX router to extend the Existing Network >> in the AirPort Tab > Wireless Tab >> Wireless Mode - choose your Linksys network and enter credentials - your AEX should now join the Linksys network
Then switch back to your original wifi network and your AEX should show in the AirPort utility as well, extending the range of your Linksys network, green light on
PS: Win XP support for WP2 authentication downright *****. Even with SP3, get ready for some "cannot connect" warnings. My Dell laptop from work would have major issues connecting to my home's AirPort WPA2. I had to downgrade to WPA at some point.

I'm unable to connect to my mac mini server remotely since the upgrade to OSX 10.8.5. I was able to connect without problem (from an Ipad and a Mac Pro workstation)before the upgrade which I applied last week.

I installed an update to OSX 10.8.5 last week. I've been unable to use Remote Desktop VNC from my Mac Pro working station or use Mocha Vnc Lite from my Ipad to gain access to my mac mini server since I applied the update. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi David,
thank you. I tried all the steps and the thing different is that now with my usual user the CC app crashes silently, but Photoshop and Illustrator generate a crash report with this message:
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC/Adobe Photoshop CC.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/amtlib.framework/Versions/A/amtlib
abort() called
terminate called throwing an exception
With the Adobe user it runs with no problems, I even tried to do a "diff" of running user processes between the two users and remove all launchers and extensions but it's still the same.
I am a developer so I use XCode and other "dotfiles" and dirs within my home directory, I'm also using Ruby/RVM, NodeJS and some other. Can some of this stuff cause conflicts?
Thank you
Vito

Try this first - 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.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Having problem to do "Recovery HD" on Mac Pro?

Hi,
I had Lion 10.7.3 installed on my Mac Pro with four internal harddisks connected to an Apple RAID card. I was trying to re-install Lion by using Lion's "Recovery HD" feature. So I shutdown my Mac Pro and reboot by pressing "Command+R" keys to start up the "Recovery HD". I then selected "Reinstall Mac OS X" from the first startup screen. After confirming the License agreement, I was presented with "Selecting the disk" for installing OS X Lion. This is where I had the problem.
My Mac Pro has four internal harddisks connected to an Apple RAID card. The first disk (1TB) was dedicated as boot disk with OS 10.7.3 installed along with the Recovery HD partition. The other three disks (2TBx3) were setup as one Volume RAID for data only.
And for the Lion re-install on the Select disk screen, it only showed two choices:
1) Recovery HD (which is grayed and cannot be selected),
2) DATA-01 (which is the 3 disks RAID for data only).
There was no boot disk to select from. I don't know what happened why the boot disk was not there. So I returned to the first screen and use Disk Utility to examine all the disks in my Mac Pro. It showed both the boot disk and the DATA-01 (RAID volume) were there. But as soon as I went back to re-install Lion, it only allowed me to select my RAID volume. The boot disk with the original Lion installed was just not there.
Any help what might have happened? Thanks.

I don't do RAID stuff, so all I can do is point you to Recovery and About Lion Recovery. Also, see the Related Articles links in the second doc. Maybe there;s something there that'll help. Otherwise, contact Apple's Express Lane.

Anyone having problems installing Boot Camp with New Mac Pro 2.8?

I just get blank screen after it restarts with XP disk. I'm using a vga - dvi adapter with a apple 17" display..
I've phoned apple and read up on here but nobody seems to know. I just wondered whether my 2008 Mac Pro was faulty...
Please can you help?
cheers

Are you getting a white screen after the Mac reboots? If so, try disconnecting all non-essential USB/FW devices.
I had the exact same problem and I went through a long, stressful process of elimination to get it working, even to the extent of using my MacBook as an external drive through target disk mode!
It turned out to be my iMage USB camera. Even after successfully installing Windows I have to disconnect it before using Bootcamp.
I Hope this helps.

How can I connect my iPhone to my Mac without deleting all the apps on it?

Last night I bought a bunch of apps using iTunes on my Mac. Then I connected my iPhone and put the apps from the computer onto the iPhone. So far so good.
Today I opened up iTunes on another Mac and before connecting the phone first selected Store > Check for available downloads. A dialog came up saying "all purchases have been downloaded for this account."
Under preferences I checked "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
I then connected my iPhone to this second Mac and did the update to iOS 4.1.
(By the way the reason I used the second Mac to do this update was that it failed repeatedly on the first Mac with an error saying something like can't create a session. I went through Apple's related troubleshooting document extremely carefully and methodically, but that didn't help. I then followed the recommendation in that document to try with a second Mac.)
Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
Also in iTunes itself on the second computer all my new apps are missing. I looked under the "Library" section in iTunes and a bunch of apps that I've been trying over and over for months to simply delete are present and none of the ones I bought last night are present.
Questions:
1. How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
2. How can I connect my phone to my computer without completely ******* up my phone? Does Apple provide a way to do that?
3. Is there ANY way that I can effectively control what is and is not on my phone (apps, videos, etc.) or is that just supposed to be sort of random?
By the way it appears that Apple doesn't allow "potty words" on its forum because we all are, after all, six year olds. So just to be clear, what I MEANT and what I WROTE was "eff u cee kay i en gee up my phone."

Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.
How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

HT201263 I purchased an 1gen 16GB Ipod from a seller. The ipod only shows the connect to itunes logo when connected to computer. The display shows without the word itunes. I got error codes 1603 and 1604 and have followed all the steps that were shown on

I purchased a 16gb ipod touch 1 gen and it wont restore or show the battery chaging icon. It shows the symbol of usb cable and what appears to be an itunes symbol without the itunes words being displayed. Upon trying to restore I have gotten error codes 1603 & 1604. I referred to the apple website for assistance and followed the steps to the letter with no results. So what else should I try or could I try because I have has no such luch thus far? I have held the home button and power button I tried to enter DFU mode but unsuccessful due to the screen boots with apple logo then immediately goes to the itunes screen and no further only when connected. Will not power on without usb connection have charged battery to see if it was the issue and no battery bar locator displays with or without being connected to PC.

So you did all this:
Error 1603: If you receive this error and the iOS device is not automatically placed into recovery mode, it may be necessary to do so manually. Refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore for steps on placing iPhone into forced recovery mode. Also, remove the IPSW and attempt to restore again. If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user.
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

iCloud: Troubleshooting creating an iCloud backup

HT1338 I have updated my software and everything else I think I need to do. I am having a problem connecting to Facetime on my Mac Pro Book. I have tried using my Apple ID and I have tried creating a new ID but it doesn't work.

I just bought a New Apple Pro Book. Tried getting Facetime up and working with no luck. Won't accept APPLE ID and won't accept a new account. Tried to buy app thinking it was that but told me it was already installed on the mac. Do I have to fix a setting or something that I am not aware of.
My whole family used the same APPLE ID and I have this apple ID on my IPHONE for facetime. Do we need a new one if so why can't I create a new one???

You can use the same AppleID for App Store purchasing Apps, Books and Music. (So you can share between family members, no need to re-purchase)
But for other Apple services like FaceTime, Message, Game Center (next Mac OS release) etc You should use a different Apple ID.
To start, you need an e-mail address (Gmail from Google, Yahoo from Yahoo, or Hotmail from Microsoft: there are all free). Use the browser for example to search for gmail.
1. Create an e-mail account following the instruction given. (Take note of email address you created and password use, password should include numbers, letters and uppercase letter)
2. Test that new e-mail account by sending a test email to that account (GMail mails can be view using the browser)
3. use this link to create a new Apple ID: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ using the new e-mail address you created.
Not wanting to overload you. After you have all that come back here again and we go from there.
