When setting up yahoo e mail what info are they asking for in the description block

When setting up Yahoo e mail on i pad2 what information are they asking for in the description block

It's just a name/description so that you can identify the account in the Mail app. If you have more than one email account set up on the iPad, then that is the name that appears and which you select when switching between them - so it just needs to be something so that you can identify which email account it is so that you know which one it is that you are selecting/viewing

  • TS1398 when it shows the names to connect to for wifi what password are they asking for?

    What password do they ask for to hook up to wifi in the house?

    It is asking for the password for the wireless network. If you have not changed the settings for your router you may have been supplied with a default password on a card or booklet that came with it. If it is not you're network you may have to ask the owner for a password. If you changed the password when setting up your wireless router, you will need to remember or find it if you wrote it down.

  • My ipad will not connect to wi-fi. I lost it after updating os7. Friend got it to work in CA but coming home to AZ it will not connect. Another thing why are they asking for password when I try to pick location, to my knowledge this has not been asked

    I have a problem with my wi-fi cant get to work, I will pick a server then they ask for a password, to my knowledge this has never been asked in the past/ This happened with I installed OS7. A friend in CA was able to connect but when I returned to AZ I have not been able to setup the Wi-FI.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Although I have not set up a voice mail password, my phone keeps asking for one. How do I turn that off?

    Just bought an iPhone 5. Although I did not set up a voicemail password, it keeps asking for one. How do I turn that off?

    I believe once you set and input the password on your iPhone it will NEVER ask you for it again, unless you restore your phone as a new device.
    So, set a password, input it, then you shouldn't see that popup anymore.

    When setting up a Firefox Sync account I was never asked a secret phrase. When I try to use Firefox Home it asks for the secret phrase. What do I do? (using Firefox 3.6.10, iphone 4 and macbook OS X

    On the MacBook, open up the Preferences dialog and go to the Sync panel. Click the Manage Account button so it shows more options, then click on the My Sync Key link to show you the Sync Key.
    The sync key is the same as the secret phrase, it was renamed in recent versions of Firefox Sync.

  • HT4864 when setting up my icloud mail i accidently pressed dont merge instead of merge.  can i still merge them and if i can how do i do it?

    When setting up my icloud mail I accidently pressed dont merge instead of merge. Can I still merge them and if I can, how do I do it.  I am a complete novice at this type of technology so any help is greatly appreciated!!

    No problem.  If you sync your computer with your iCloud account, you can sync iCloud email, contacts, calendars and tasks with Outlook 2007 or higher; as well as your bookmarks with internet explorer and your photo stream photos.  This will keep this data on your phone in sync with your computer.  This guide shows how to set this up: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.
    To enable photo stream, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn it on.  After that, when you take a photo on your phone, the next time it is connected to wifi with the camera app closed and has at least 20% battery life remaining, it will upload the photo to photo stream and the photo will be streamed to your computer if you are syncing it with your iCloud account. 
    Music is only synced with iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match.  If you do, the music in your iTunes library (up to 25,000 songs) on your computer will be made available to download to your phone over iCloud without having to sync or store it on your phone.
    You can also automatically back up your device to iCloud every 24 hours when it is connected to wifi and your charger.  To enable this, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and turn it on at the bottom.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • When they ask for the gateway address on the Tv what number is that or what number should I be looking for?

    When they ask for the gateway numbers on the TV, what number is that or what should I be looking for? I am trying to connect my wifi network on my Samsung smart TV.

    The "Gateway" address would be the Private (LAN-side) IP address of your Internet router. If you are using an AirPort base station for that router, the default gateway IP address would be: 10.0.1.1

    just got a used airport base station. Set it up and getting wif signal. when I try to hook up on a computer it asks for a security key. where can I locate key?

    If you mean the hexidecimal equivalent of the alphanumeric password, then you can find this via the AirPort Utility, as follows:
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup
    On the AirPort Utility's menubar select Base Station > Equivalent Network Password
