  • Several times over the last few days while on safari my iPad spontaneously shuts off screen goes dark then goes to home screen what's going on and how do I fix it when I look at settings diagnostics it says that there is low memory ?

    Safari crashes several times while on pinterest, screen goes black then goes to home screen when I start safari again it keeps doing the same thing.  I checked the diagnostics page and there are several references stating low memory yet when I check the memory on the iPad there is plenty of memory  help please

    The memory that is low is the processor memory, not the overall storage space.  Next time, before you go to that site, double tap the home button to see the task bar.  You will see the list of apps siting in the recently used list.  Most of them are not doing anything, but some of them are using up memory.  Touch and hold any one of them until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the minus sign.
    Do that every so often to help the pad use it's memory wisely.
    Some apps, and browser pages use a lot of memory, and do not give it back easily, causing what sis happening to you.
    You can also get a similar result by rebooting.  Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.

    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • When adding a new OU container to User Profile Sync the users does not get synchronized

    We have an OU that users on leave are located. These users would "fall out" of sharepoint when moved to this OU, so I went in the sync and ticked on that that OU to be synced as well.
    When running a new sync after this change, it only syncs one user, although the OU has about 30 users there. Same result if I do a full sync or an incremental sync.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Double check that the user really is being synced. The most common issue is caused by user error when people think a user is being synced but is not.
    Once you've validated that the user in the OU really is being updated in SharePoint you should check your synchronisation connection rules. Identify which filters you have set and check one of the non-importing users in the OU. Check each and every one of
    those filters to try to identify which is causing them to be removed.
    Finally you can also check the MIIS client which sometimes gives more information about why users are or are not being imported.

  • HT1349 My Apple MacBook Pro won't start up.  It is stuck on grey screen and I reset all of the stuff.  It still won't work also half the screen goes dark then you have to shake it till it goes back on.  Please help.

    You might have better luck posting on the Mabook Pro discussion forum, as this is the OS X Xserve server forum.
    Have you tried booting it from a DVD? If so and you find the same result, then its probably a hardware issue.

  • When I reply or forward a message with an attachment the attachment does not forward with the email

    Someone sent a message with an attachment. I replied but the attachment doesn't show in my reply. I want to be sure the attachment goes with the reply.

    Unfortunately Micrisift have difficulty with understanding standards so they make mail programs that do not correctly encode attachments. Thunderbird can display them, but not forward defective mime encoding. This is a conscious decision of the developers, they are not spreading what they see as defective mail.
    Forward such mail as an attachment. It is on the message menu (Alt + M) on on the drop down beside the forward button.

  • TS4085 the image does not fill entire screen of iPad, therefore not the entire TV screen.  Why?

    When I try to mirror a video from my iPad to TV using Apple TV, the video does not fill entire screen of iPad nor the entire screen of my TV,  Is there a way to strech the image to fit screen(s)?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There are two factors in play here. Firstly the iPad screen is 4:3, your TV is 16:9, so when mirroring the mirrored iPad screen is never going to fill the TV screen. If on top of that, whatever you are watching doesn't fill the iPad screen then that too will be reflected in what is seen in the mirrored image.
    You cannot stretch this using the Apple TV or iPad controls, but your TV may have a setting you can use. Generally speaking though this will distort the image and you would likely be best leaving it alone.
