Why does my connection to Apple store constantly fail even though I have good internet connectivity to all non-apple apps?

Hi.
All of a sudden my IOS devices are having difficulty accessing all of my Apple-store controlled apps and purchases when using my home network, even though it is a really fast network and my other devices work perfectly. Spotify, YouTube and Netflix and all apps that don't rely on Apple purchases are working perfectly on my iPad and ipod, and I have fast internet speed and perfect connectivity on all my other devices.
But when I go to Newsstand or iTunes Store for example I get the message 'can't connect to Apple server' or 'you are not connected to wifi' even though all non-Apple apps are connecting perfectly on the same device. I have tried all the usual reboot, reset solutions and nothing seems to resolve this. My software is up to date. My iPod and iPad are working perfectly when I use another network. My home network is working perfectly for everything else.
Any ideas?

Sorry for bad English and typos, I wrote it quickly.

All Non-Apple Apps Keep Crashing

I updated the firmware on my friend's iPhone 3Gs from 4.1 to 4.3.3 using my computer. This is not the computer that my friend used to sync the iPhone and it was the first time when the iPhone was synced to my computer. I noticed now that all non-Apple apps crash when I try to start them. How could I fix this problem? Should I tell my friend to sync the 3Gs on the computer where it was synced before? Thanks.

Thanks. It worked, indeed!

It does not magically appear in a new place. It will only be where you put it.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

Non-Apple apps don't open after iOS5 upgrade (with fix)

Hi, I thought I'd add this thread in case it's useful to someone else with the same problem.
I had a iPhone 4 on latest 4.3.5 and upgraded via iTunes to iOS5 this morning.
None of my non-Apple apps would open, they'd just open and close instantly. So Facebook, Tweetdeck, Things, BBC News etc wouldn't work but ones like Reminders, App Store etc would.
I did a restore and restore from a backup and this didn't fix the problem.
I removed the apps from memory (home double-click) and rebooted the phone and still the non-Apple apps wouldn't load.
So finally I thought I'd reinstall the apps from scratch, deleted Facebook and grabbed it again from the App Store.
This worked and fired up as normal, tried the others non-Apple apps and they all work too!
No idea why, not sure if it's specifically the Facebook app or if I could have done that too any of them.
All sorted now and iOS5 is lovely

Confirmed!
I had the same problem, deleted a weather app (so no valuable data attached to it) re-installed it and all the other apps seem to work again.
Which single app you delete & reload doesn't seem to matter, I think you just need to re-establish the connection between the device and your App Store account in order to trigger some kind of background authorization.
It might also work by deleting nothing and just grabbing a new, free app.

TS1702 all non-Apple apps fail to launch on my iPad

Suddenly all the non-Apple apps will not launch on my iPad (examples: Words with Friends; games; Trip Advisor; magazines, newspapers etc). Tapping on icon causes the screen to darken for a second, like it is about to launch, and then it crashes back to the home screen. Apple apps work fine.
All apps and operating system are up to date. I have hard re-started the iPad twice.

Try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

All non-apple apps unexpectedly quit when trying to save

All (non apple) applictions, i.e. photoshop, illustrator, maya unexpectedly quit when trying to save, import or anything else that requires a dialogue box.
I have had this problem with individual apps, and I usually go in and delete the prefpane folder and that fixes it, but this is multiple apps and nothing is working. Help

Iphone 3GS was dropped and will not turn on or respond to USB connection. Is there any way to extract the data off when it is not responding so that I can restore to my new phone?

The phone is physically intact, but you can see the LCD is cracked behond the glass. I have tried plugging it in, tried putting it on the charger, and resetting it using the off and home buttons, bit response. I don't need the phone to work, but I do need to be bale to back it up in order to restore to the new phone. Is there any way to extract the data or back up the hard drive without repairing the phone? Just curious what my options are before I spend cash trying to fix the phone and find out there was another way to get the data. Any thoughts here or should a good repair shop being able to create a backup somehow?

Im not going to be much help because I don't know of anything else to besides take it somewhere that fixes electronics and see if they can get it off some how maybe if you take it to an apple store they can do something to get your information.

Printer has new all new ink and still will not print

I just got back to school and unpacked my HP Photosmart 5514 CQ183A printer. Upon trying to use it I noticed the ink was empty, so I went to the store and bought brand new 564 ink in every color. I installed them all properly and went to print again, and it still did not work. So I pressed "clean printhead" in the tools menu. Ink slowly started to appear on the paper so I "cleaned the printheads" a few more times until it was all perfect. I then printed what I needed, turned my printer off and went to sleep. This morning I woke up and tried to print again and it is doing the same exact thing as last night. Worst part is, it says all of my ink except for black is now empty. How can that be when I just bought all of them last night and only cleaned the printhead 8 times and printed 2 pages of only black ink the night before??
I bought the printer in late June of 2012 and I only use it when I am at school 7 months out of the year. When I pack up and go home I put the printer back in the box with all the orginal packaging. I do not understand why a printer that has only been used for about 14 months is haveing this problem!

Hi hellohpthisisst,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5514, you are unable to print after replacing the cartridges.
I see you have done the printhead cleaning a few times to try and fix the ink issue you were experiencing, please remember when doing service tasks on the PS 5514 it will use some ink. However you're right, the cartridges should not be empty. I would like you to take a look here and make sure the cartridges are properly vented: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.
Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
If you are still running into print quality issues, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

can you try with another Display manager like lightdm see if that works ?
I might try that, though now that I finally have my PC back I have some other work that takes priority for a few days. :-)

I'm using `nvidia-xconfig` to generate that file (I haven't had to tinker with it manually for years now).
The tool generates this 'deprecated' file. Should I just move its exact content to the new location?

Allow download of non Apple Apps

Greetings,

We have two iPod touch 2nd generations, one had to be restored a few days ago and is now not able to have some of the apps back on it saying that they are incompatible with the iPod. Is there any way to "copy" the apps from 1 to the other??

Is there any way to get an older version of the app that can be compatible or to "copy" the app from one iPod to the other?
Or maybe to update the opperating system??

you can by downloading iTunes to your computer/laptop but before plugging it in to the computer make sure all of your apps are on it then just sync the restored iPod to your computer and all of the apps on the computer will go to your iPod.. Good Luck

I want to open new tabs with other ones open. So I click the + button for tabs and it does nothing. I right click and click new tab and still nothing. How do I get that feature to work again.

I click the + button to open a new tab and it doesn't do anything, not even open a new tab. I try to right click and open a new tab and still don't work. But if I right click a link and click open in new tab it will work. How do I get to open my tabs again with the + button?

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
