TS1702 I have three apps that I tried to update and now they are stuck in waiting how do I fix this
I have three apps that I tried to update and now they are frozen any ideas on how I can fix this
You can try any or all of these suggestions that have worked for others in the past .... But ... YMMV.
Reboot 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.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

Hi,
In a stupid attempt to "fix" my computer, I removed my /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/.VideoCaptureFactory.* files (one was a .png and the other was a .xls).
I followed these steps:
Manual Removal Instructions
1. Run the following command in Terminal:
defaults read /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info LSEnvironment
2. Take note of the value, DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
3. Proceed to step 8 if you got the following error message:
"The domain/default pair of (/Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info, LSEnvironment) does not exist"
4. Otherwise, run the following command in Terminal:
grep -a -o '__ldpath__[ -~]*' %path_obtained_in_step2%
5. Take note of the value after "__ldpath__"
6. Run the following commands in Terminal (first make sure there is only one entry, from step 2):
sudo defaults delete /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info LSEnvironment
sudo chmod 644 /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info.plist
7. Delete the files obtained in steps 2 and 5
8. Run the following command in Terminal:
defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
9. Take note of the result. Your system is already clean of this variant if you got an error message similar to the following:
"The domain/default pair of (/Users/joe/.MacOSX/environment, DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES) does not exist"
Is there a way to update my db to not look for this or did I remove something crucial to the functioning of Safari? I feel like an idiot.
Thanks for any help.
Sincerely,
Sterling MacNayYou installed a variant of what’s commonly called the “Flashback” or “Fakeflash” trojan, although the names are obsolete.
If you’re certain you know when that happened, and you back up with Time Machine or something similar, you can save yourself a lot of time by restoring your whole system from the most recent snapshot taken before it was infected. Then take Steps 7, 8, and 10 below.
How can you tell when the infection took place? All you can be sure of is that you were infected some time before the problems started. You may have visited a blog that prompted you to install some kind of software, or a “certificate.” You entered your administrator password when prompted. If you remember doing that recently, mention it in a reply, but don’t post a link.
If you don’t know when you were infected, there's no easy, reliable way to remove the malware, because it's constantly changing. There are differences of opinion on this site as to the best of course of action, so you should do your own research before deciding how to proceed.
I suggest you take the following steps:
1. Back up all data to at least two different devices, if you haven't already done so.
2. Boot from your recovery partition (if running Mac OS X 10.7 or later) or your installation disc (if running an earlier version of the Mac OS), launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume. This action will destroy all data on the volume, so you must be sure of your backups.
3. Install the Mac OS.
4. Reboot and go through the initial setup process to create an account with the same name as your old one. Don’t import anything from your backups at this stage.
5. If running Mac OS X 10.6.x or earlier, run Software Update. You may have to run it more than once to fully update your system.
6. Restore the contents of the top-level subfolders of your home folder except “Library” from the most recent backup. The Library folder may contain components of the malware. It’s best not to restore anything from there. If you must do so, restore only files, not whole folders with all their contents, and only if (a) they’re visible in the Finder, and (b) you know what they are, and (c) they haven’t been altered. Don’t restore anything in the home subfolder Library/LaunchAgents, if it exists, or any hidden files or folders, no matter where they are.
7. If you’re running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, launch Safari and select Safari ▹ Preferences… ▹ Security from the menu bar. Uncheck the box labeled Enable Java. Because of known bugs, Java in those OS versions is unsafe to use on the Internet. (Note: I’m not referring to JavaScript, which is unrelated to Java, despite the similar names.) If you’re running Mac OS 10.6.8 or later, you should still disable the Java web plugin unless you really need it. Few websites have legitimate Java content nowadays. If you encounter one that does, enable Java temporarily.
8. Change every Internet password you have, starting with banking passwords. Check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. Take this step only after you’ve secured your system in the preceding steps, not before.
9. Reinstall your third-party software from fresh downloads or original media, not from backups which may be contaminated.
10. If you use any third-party web browsers, disable Java in their preferences. As with step 7, this step is mandatory if you’re running any version of Mac OS X older than 10.6. Otherwise it’s optional, but recommended. -

I have enlarged icons on the log in screen and can not enter my login code. I have tried enough times that I am locked out and my iphone 5 has been disabled.How do I fix this??
Hey there byambar,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’re describing two issues, the first issue is related to the Zoom accessibility feature and the second issue is related to the device being disabled.
Take a look at the article linked below to learn more about Zoom and the other accessibility features on your iPhone 5.

what do i do when iPhoto Deletes my recent pic's all the way to 2010????? i opened the program and it said i needed to update my library otherwise i wouldn't be able to view the images that were not updated…… and now they are gone!!!!!! WHat do i do!!!!!! Is this some type a virus???? my mac is protected!!!!! tried to chat with an IT person but they keep asking if its like a tech problem and it is just iphoto
You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
Our students have entered passcodes when downloading ios 7 update and now ipads are locked, help!
Our students have entered passcodes when downloading ios 7 update and now ipads are locked, help!
If the iPad is running iOS 7 and the kid set up Find My IPad, then you can't restore it without the kid's Apple ID and password. The Activation Lock is a feature that people whined and whined to get, and is causing exactly the sort of problems many of us predicted when people were clamoring for it. If you can't get the kid's Apple ID, you'll have to call Apple Support and ask if they have any sort of workaround. My guess is that they'll have to replace the iPad, but they may have a solution they don't talk about publicly.
This won't help for iPads currently locked for which you can't get the Apple ID, but if before you give out iPads to your students you go into the Restrictions and disallow changes to the accounts, they can't then turn in Find My iPad. Or you can set up Find My iPad yourselves to your own accounts and then lock the Restrictions so they can't set iCloud up to an account to which you don't have the Apple ID.

I have always edited photos right from my desktop and now they are all opening in preview. How do I change it back? Thanks!
They open in Preview by default.
However, if you open Picture Folder in Preview, navigate to any photo ( without opening it ) then right click on the photo and select Get Info from the dropdown menu.
About 2/3rds' of the way down on the Get Info tab you'll see a Marker ' Open WIth '. Enter whichever editing program you're using.
Whenever you open a photo from whatever it's location it will open in the chosen editing program.
Hope this helps. -
TS1702 i have an app that keeps trying to load. I dont know what it is.
How do I get rid of it?
What do you mean "it keeps trying to load"? Apps only load when you tap their icon. Is the app frozen?
If so, see: http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2012/04/how-to-force-quit-an-unresponsive-ios-app/ -
I have one app that just randomly started crashing and now will not open
I have an app- Game of war, that I liked to play. well one day it just crashed. I did all sorts of things; reset my warnings, deleted it, rebooted, even upgraded to the newest firmware and it still wont work. it just opens to a crash report screen, but even if i put in the report, it just quits. I went to the website and have been talking to the "developer team" and they cannot figure out what is wrong. I even sent them my crash reports. that was two months ago. anyone have a clue? This is the only app that does it. No other app does.
Backup the iPad first, delete the app, reinstall tha app and then restore from the backup in order to recover your data.

Please help Obi Wan, you're my only hope.
So you are saying that you purchased it by:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
Is iTunes signed into the same iTunes account that purchased it?
How long ago did you purchase it?
Did you purchase it on another computer?

I have just got an iPad and attempted to purchase some tv episodes and they download until the end when I get a message saying "unable to download episode" can anyone help please?
Dear Mr. Churchill,
Anastasia here. Same problem. Restarting the device does not help. The new episodes show in my Apple MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5) Itunes (11.1.3(8)), but not in the Apple TV device. Both have the same Apple ID, I have restarted, log on /off both devices several times and the problem remains: last week's episode of 3 different series will not download.
This has happened to me on several occassions, each time something else solves de problem. I have been having the probem since the last Apple TV software update. It is usually after software updates that this type of problem appears.
I can also see the new available episodes in my Iphone 5.iOS6 (I have not installed yet the iOS 7.0.4)
What is going on? How do I solve it now? I have tried everything that worked in the other instances, but nothing is working now. Please answer to [email protected] Big thanks.
Another question: What is the different between "Restart" and "Resert" of the Apple TV device? What will I loose if I reset, instead of restart, which I have done till now. Will it solve the problem?
Big thanks,
Anastasia

I have several apps that are not updating, they are stuck saying "waiting".
Are you downloading music?
Check by going to iTunes (on iDevice) > downloads and then remove the one that is trying to download, this will then make the others download and when they are finished, the apps will update/install -

I have 180 apps that iTunes can no longer "find". They appear in "my apps" and there is a file location for them. Can old purchases be restored without doing each one individually?
That did the trick! Thank you.
The free trial is all I needed to migrate my iPod Touch library into my main iTunes library. For those that want to use this tool for the same needs there are some things that need to be moved manually, e.g. Apps. But you can do it within the program very easily. Also iBooks/PDFs etc. need to be moved manually. The help section will point you in the right direction.
No more switching iTunes libraries for me.
