After update will no longer accept passcode, can't do anything, locked out. What can I do to resolve this?

After update I Pad is asking for passcode, but it won't accept the passcode. Totally locked out, no error message is displayed. Keeps asking for passcode.

Hi dlweaver,
In this case the iPad will have to be restored because the password isn't being accepted and the device is most likely disabled. The article linked below will provide details about the passcode feature and walk you through restoring the iPad.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
I hope this helps.

No internet access when connected to an available wi-fi network and the same when connected to your carrier's cellular network, or when connected to your carrier's cellular network only?
Any error message provided?

If you can't unlock the device because it will not accept the passcode, there is only one thing you can do.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Instructions can be found here.

You may have to use recovery mode if that didn't work.

BUT .... Just for the heck of it, reboot the device before you resort to restoring and see if ithe passcode will work.
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.

I have set a passcode and forgotten it and now i am locked out what can i do ?

Lisa,
You'll need to connect the touch to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory settings. See this article for help on getting your iPod touch into Recovery Mode.

Is it asking for your Apple ID password or the passcode to unlock the phone?

My remote will not work on Apple TV. The play button does not play so I can not access any content. What can I do?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

So, will Firefox just not open, or what exactly happens?
Try opening up Internet Explorer, going to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], click the big "Download Now" button. Then, click run. Install Firefox on your machine over your old install. This is just to make sure none of the components of Firefox are broken. All your old information will be saved.
Then, try to restart your PC and reopen Firefox. Does it work? If not, try starting it in [[Safe Mode]]. It is works there, it is likely that one of your extensions is broken. Read [[Uninstalling add-ons#w_how-to-disable-extensions0-personassf-and-plugins|How to disable extensions, Personas, and plugins]], and disable them one by one until you find the culprit.

You need to restore the iPad.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
If that will not work, you will need to use Recovery Mode to restore.

My iphone5 after update is no longer compatiable to beats by dre system how can i fix this

My iphone5 after the 8.0 update is no longer compatiable with an audio device "Beats by DRE" how can this be fixed< or how do i downgrade

Downgrading is not supported at all.
What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far? Have you deleted the pairing on both devices? I'm having no issue with my Beats devices (Pill, BT headphones) with my iDevices running iOS 8.

Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it. See "details" box for full description.

Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it--can't use "Help," can't search the Web, can't even use "Sign Out." I have to close it entirely to get out of it. A box comes up and says "Yahoo Mail is loading especially slowly" and tells me my computer speed is slow. But this is the same computer I've always used for Firefox, and Yahoo comes up quickly and completey through Internet Explorer (which is how I'm sending this message). Can anyone help me load Firefox so that it works? I even downloaded the latest version of Firefox, but it makes no difference. Thanks.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
You can also try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.

After updating my I-phone 4s to iOS 7 my Contact icon disappears , how can I find it ?

After updating my I-phone 4s to iOS 7 my contact icon disappears, how can I find it ?

You need to try a reset on the phone. Contacts is a native iOS application and cannot be deleted. Reset the phone by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you cannot find it after that, then go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

My iphone 4s and ipad 2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi but non-mac lap top has no issues

my iphone 4s and ipad2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi.
About three days ago the ability to connect came and went and the connection never lasted more than 10-15 minutes; it has not been able to connect since last night. I do not think it's my wifi router as non-mac lap top has no issues. I have seem many similar questions posted.

Reboot your router by removing all power from it for about 15 seconds. Also, if your router still has its default SSID (such as LINKSYS, DLINK, NETGEAR, etc) change the SSID to something unique. Note that all other devices on your network will have to be reconnected if you change the name, but if the name is still the default that is most likely your problem.
If the SSID is not the default then the reboot should fix it.

It seems that the new version of iPhoto will no longer share photos between computers on the same network. Can anyone confirm this?

I have "automatically create previews" in the preferences UNCHECKED. Why is Aperture creating previews? For the screen image?
You might also need to turn Preview generation off for any existing Projects. Select the Project in the Projects pane and use the cog button at the top of the pane to uncheck 'Maintain Previews For Project'.

Itunes will no longer accept any of my credit cards. Says security code doesn't match with any card I use. I have inputted new card info in the apple store area and it still says the same thing in itunes. Customer service is no help at all.

Itunes will no longer accept any of my credit cards. It says vcode doesn't match when it does. Customer service is no help. I have re-inputted the info in the account section of the apple store and in itunes--still says vcode doesn't match.
