AirPort quits unexpectedly and a reboot is necessary to get it back - installed the most recent AirPort software but it didn't resolve the issue (v10.5.8). Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Open a Finder window. Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left then open the LIbrary folder, then the Preferences folder, then the System Configuration folder.
Move all the files from the System Configuration folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac. Try AirPort.

    ten second then says "Thanks for download" but it is not download.  I have not been able to sync for over 5 months. My iPhone 3GS has 6.1.3 version.

    That's because iTunes 11 requires Snow Leopard or higher.

  • Since downloading the most recent version of iTunes, I have to accept the software terms and conditions every time I open iTunes

    Since installing the most recent version of iTunes, I have to accept the software terms and conditions every time I go in to iTunes.  I sign in to my account, but when I re-open iTunes, as well as having to accept the terms and conditions before continuing, I find that iTunes has logged me out of my account.  None of this has happened before.  I am using a PC with Windows 8.

  • Since downloading the most current iTunes software I can no longer print the insert (label) for a jewel case.  The songs are printed over each other and can not be read.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Since downloading the most current iTunes software I am no longer able to print an insert (label) for a jewel case.  I click on print, choose jewel case and then it doesn't matter which option I choose for the insert it will only print the songs over each other in a 1 inch section so that it can not be used or read.  If instead of clicking on the jewel case I click on list it works fine and prints an appropriate list.  I have always updated the iTunes software the first time I am offered to do so and I have never had a problem printing the jewel case inserts.  Since this issue is not about a piece of hardware iTunes help will not help me. 

    Did you ever get a response?
    If you so how did you correct the problem?
    I have the exact problem you had.
    Please let me know.
    Thank you

  • I have a Mac and I have downloaded the most recent Adobe Acrobat, but files will not open.  Any suggestions?

    I have a Mac and downloaded the most recent Adobe Acrobat version, in order to open PDF's on a site I use.  They changed something recently and advised everyone to get up to date, which I did, but to no avail.  I keep getting a "waiting" message. I have used the Safari "develop" menu to simulate Internet Explorer, but with no luck.
    Any suggestions?

  • My mac is telling me i have no software updates available, but i do! i don't have the most recent ios software and i cannot update itunes or sync my recently updated iphone without it. help!

    i am currently on the osx 5.8 operating system. I just downloaded the new iphone 5 software and cannot sync it with my itunes on this computer because it doesn't have the most current version of itunes which i discovered i cannot download without an iosx oeprating system. I have run software update 10 times, started and restarted the computer and the program. help! what do i need to do to switch over to the ios-x operating system....or whatever the most current version is called. if i have to pay for it, that's fine. i have just been routed and rerouted through the apple store trying to figure it out. can someone help me please!

    Hello,
    There are two different things here, an OS update and a software update.
    Mac OS X 10.5 is the version of OS while the .8 at the end is the software update (release patches)
    The most current software update for Mac OS X 10.5 is 10.5.8
    No more software updates available. You would need to upgrade the OS, which would be to Mac OS X 10.6
    Your new iPhone 5 would require iTunes 10.6 which is only available for OS X version 10.6.8 or later.
    Your would therefore need to upgrade your Macbook to this version of OS.
    It maybe brought on DVD via Apple directly (Contact Apple ) or using any good online vendor like Amazon.
    Best of luck

  • WIFI on my Time Capsule is off, and there's no way of getting it back on, nor of accessing my Time Capsule.  How can I resolve?

    WIFI on my Time Capsule is off, there's no way of getting it back on, I can't connect to my Time Capsule anymore, and the reset button doesn't work.

    Thanks for the help, managed to get it back up and running.  Some feedback:
    *  My TC was still under warranty, so I didn't want to open it up.
    *  I disconnected all cables from TC and Macbook, except the ethernet between both.
    *  Restarted TC, and WIFI went back up.
    This leads me to thinking that what caused my troubles is:
    *  I had a USB hub connected to the TC, on which is a USB printer
    *  I had disconnected the USB printer from the hub to connect it directly to my Macbook (to make a scan of a document)
    *  When reconnecting the printer to the USB hub, the WIFI went down.
    I think TC WIFI must be rather sensitive to USB connecting and disconnecting... 
    Thanks once again !

  • How to synch in the most recent version of iTunes - 11.0.0.163 - The latest version updated today and changed the look of the program. I can't see where to click to synch. If I disconnect and restart it works fine automatically, but why do that?

    I updated the latest version of iTunes today and it has a new look. That's fine but I can't see where to click to synch my ipod after downloading music or podcasts. It was always easy.

    It might make it much easier on you if you enable the sidebar in iTunes. Launch iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar. With iTunes set up like that, it should look a lot more familiar to you. You can select your device name under the devices heading and then go through all of the iTunes panes by clicking on them at the top of the iTunes Window.
    My screenshot shows my iPad, but it works the same way with an iPod.

  • My iPad stuck and start working after a few seconds ....I have tried the rest option( home and sleep button press at the same time) but this didn't resolve the issue ...please guide me as I don't know much about all this..

    I have tried reset option but to no avail .......

    one more try with the reset.  hold those buttopns until you see the apple logo.  ignore the red slider.  
    Then you are going to need to describe some symptoms so we can help you out.

  • I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

    I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12.  I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup. 
    Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today?  Please help if you can...thanks!

    I found the answer on:
    transferring Txt messages from old phone to new iphone 4
    It worked great!

  • I updated my iphone to the most recent version and now all my wife's text messages come to my phone. I think I set it up wrong, how can I change this?

    I recently updated to the most recent iphone software.  Now my phone seems linked to my wife's and I get all of her text messages.  How can I change this? Please help.

    It sounds like that Library is damaged. Restore from your back up is the simple surefire solution.

  • I have the iPod touch 3g, and I've updated the version to 4.2, is that the most recent version i can get?

    When I try to buy newer apps in the store, it says to update my iPod to a newer version; 4.3 etc. But whenever I connect to iTunes, it says that 4.2.7 is the most recent current iOS. Is 4.2.7 the highest version my iPod can get?

    Are you sure you really do not have a 2G iPod? Those can only go to 4.2.1

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck

  • Please Help SL - Everything 'quits unexpectedly' and top menu bar flashing

    Please Help. Snow Leopard - Everything 'quits unexpectedly' and top menu bar flashing.
    Basically, I have been using snow leopard for about 1-2 weeks now without any problems, apart from the strange trackpad expose glitch, but I can live with that. But a new problem has arisen that I CANNOT live with. Basically I plugged in my MiniDisplay > VGA adaptor and a Wacom internet tablet for the first time. And when it booted up rather than just the usual spinning gear, their was a progress bar as-well. Then it booted into Safe Mode.?
    Everything was fine in safe mode apart from spotlight didn't work properly so I rebooted and this time it loaded normally. EXCEPT about 5 minutes after I logged on the top menu bar started to flash on and off about ever 1-2 seconds and virtually every single application would quit unexpectedly before even loading. I haven't really looked into it apart from a quick search on google which doesn't seem to bring up anything similar, but atm I am having to use my bootcamp partition with windows installed (shock horror :D) just so I can browse the internet.
    Additional details -
    I have tried resetting PRAM + NVRAM with no joy
    While logging on (before it crashes), menu items (e.g. Airport, Battery Indicator, Facebook Notifier) all load up on the far right BEFORE the clock, which never happened before the problem, don't know if this will help isolate the problem, but its worth mentioning..
    Don't really want to go down the fresh install route if possible, as I did this with leopard about 2 months before Snow Leopard was released

    I noticed it some weeks after installing Snow Leopard, and didn't think much about it since I have a Wacom mouse, and the Wacom driver often has some little peculiarities at startup with the Mac OS--sometimes everything is perfectly ordinary, there will be an OS update and a little oddness shows up, the driver eventually gets updated and the oddness disappears until some other OS update, and so on. I just figured that was what it was until my brother asked about the missing the menu bar after startup, which reappears with a click. He doesn't use a Wacom mouse, but he does have some other 3rd party mouse. I don't know whether 3rd party mouse drivers are at fault or not. But it is not a problem with the SystemUIServer.....the entire menu bar is missing, not just a goof-up on the Spotlight end, where SystemUIServer is in charge of things. Since simply clicking the mouse brings the menu bar up I've never even bothered to check the logs to see if anything is noted there.
