  • HT1414 I updated to iOS 6.1.3 a while ago, but recently noticed I can't access wifi (when the wifi off/on switch is frayed out) does. Anyone know a possible solution to this problem.

    This problem occurred in the last few weeks and is a real downer for me because I like apple products but if I can't use wifi then I can't do my work or use much data Any possible solutions will help. Thanks

    Hi DJK2012,
    If you are having an issue with the Wifi option greyed out, you may find the following article helpful:

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this?

    Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this? I don't know how to wipe the hard drive, and the support online doesn't seem to work.

    As posted previously:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    If installing Leopard the process is similar in some respects.  If you wish to begin anew then after selecting the target disk click on the Options button and select the Erase and Install option then click on the OK button.  To install over an existing system do the following:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Outlook 2007 doesn't show icloud service running.  Does anyone know what the dll for this service is so it can be manually added to outlook?

    Outlook 2007 doesn't show the icloud service running in Windows 7 within outlook.  Does anyone know what the dll for this service is so it can be manually added to outlook?   I've installed the icloud control panel app and set it up to synch everything, but after initially downloading my icloud calendar, it won't process any calendar updates (new entries made on either iphone 4 on ios 5 or outlook). 
    So since the control panel installed, but the service doesn't show running in outlooks "trust center" add-ins list, anyone know the actual dll file it would point to so I can see if I can add it the hard way?

    I had the same issue and figured it out.  First you have to start Outook as administrator.  To do this, shift and right-click on outlook and click run as administrator.  Next you need to enable Hard-disabled add-ins:
    Hard-Disabled Add-Ins
    Hard disabling can occur when an add-in causes the application to close unexpectedly. It might also occur on your development computer if you stop the debugger while the Startup event handler in your add-in is executing.
    To re-enable an add-in
    In the application, click the File tab. 
    Click the ApplicationName Options button.
    In the categories pane, click Add-ins.
    In the details pane, verify that the add-in appears in the Disabled Application Add-ins list.  The Name column specifies the name of the assembly, and the Location column specifies the full path of the application manifest.
    In the Manage box, click Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    Select the add-in and click Enable.
    Click Close.
    Then you need to activate it. 
    To re-enable an add-in
    In the application, click the File tab.
    Click the ApplicationName Options button.
    In the categories pane, click Add-ins.
    In the details pane, verify that the add-in appears in the Inactive Application Add-ins list.  The Name column specifies the name of the assembly, and the Location column specifies the full path of the application manifest.
    In the Manage box, click COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    In the COM Add-Ins dialog box, select the check box next to the disabled add-in.
    Click OK.

  • Is it possible to send songs from, for example a samsung  using Bluetooth. If not, does anyone know a free app or something were i can download fre music. Ps exuse My english hope you'll understand����

    Ps exuse My english hope you'll understand 

    The only way to get songs on an iPhone is by synching the songs from your iTunes library, or purchasing them from the iTunes store on your phone.
    You can search yourself for sites that offer free music.

  • I am trying to edit my website which was composed in iweb. I have my website saved on my hard drive. When I open iweb, I can't seem to load the website folder into iweb for editing purposes. Anyone know a quick solution to this?

    I am trying to edit my website which, was composed on iweb about 2 years ago. I have the website stored on my hard drive. When I open iweb, I can't figure out how to load the website into iweb for editing purposes. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    You need to migrate to a modern, supported webpage development application and leave iWeb behind.  It hasn't been supported for 2 years now and was behind the curve feature wise when it was dropped by Apple.
    One app that many have migrated to because it is very similar to iWeb in the GUI and features is Everweb.  It has a demo version that you can try.  Text and photos from you current published site can be copied and pasted into Everweb to help the migration over.
    There are other possible candidates.  Just search the iWeb forum for "iWeb alternative" or "iWeb replacement" to get a list of topics discussing them.

  • I have to "force quit" every time I use iTunes or mail,does anyone know how I can fix this?

    When I use iTunes for more than a half an hour and when I use Mail at all,my computer won't shut down or log off unless I Force Quit those programs.It used to only happen once in a while,but lately it happens every timeI use them.Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be welcomed.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • My househoulse is full of Apple products. We have Ipad, Ipod, and Iphone, but they are all registered under same email. Therefore, we can not facetime with each other. Does anyone know how I could change this?

    How do I facetime with the same email address on the Apple product?

    The iphone identification should be its phone number, for other devices, such as ipad, ipod, imac you must generate a new e-mail address for each.  You can do this by using Yahoo mail, google mail, or perhaps the e-mail system that your internet service provider offers.  The point is, each unit needs its own id.

  • On my iPhone, the app store won't accept my credit card code. The thing is that it worked before and now it doesn't work. Now I can't download or update apps. Does anyone know what to do?

    I have a visa card and i used it on my apple ID and now the AppStore won't accept my code so now I can't update or download apps. Please help!!!! :(

    This has happened to me in the past a couple of times.  I can't say i have a definitive answer for you, but i believe it is a problem with the iTunes servers.  I would recommend shutting off all devices connected to the account to be sure you are completely disconnected, then turn one on, connect, and try again.  That worked for me last time i had the problem.  The first time i just gave it a day and it was taken care of. 
    Good luck.

  • I backed-up my iphone to my computer and now I can't find any of my music, does anyone know where it went?

    I backed-up my iphone 3GS to my computer and now I can't find any of my music.  I doesn't seem to be anywhere in itunes.  Can anyone help me?

    Backing up the iPhone to the computer won't transfer the music to it; to do that, you need to use the Transfer Purchases function. If you're looking for music already on the computer, search it for files with an extension of mp3, m4a, or m4p.

    Can you help me, i have no idea wha has happen to my ipad and it is also saying 'not enough storage', the touchscreen isn't working at all. If you can help i would be so grateful. Many Thanks.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
