All of a sudden my WiFI will only connect with my IMac and not my IPhone or laptop

my WiFi will connect to my IMac But not my IPhone or Laptop and it did up until a couple days ago

You might want to consider changing the name of your wireless network on the AirPort Extreme and then test to see if all devices can connect that way.
If you decide to do this, leave any apostrophes, dollar signs, exclamation marks, etc out of the wireless network name. Use only letters and numbers in the wireless network name.

  • I lost my iphone, got a new sim card and put it in my boyfriend's old iphone. When I synch it in itunes it will only synch with his stuff and not mine. Any ideas how I can get it to synch with my itunes??

    Are you using a Mac? It sounds like you are using his computer to sync to. If this is the case, then it will sync to all of his stuff unless a new user is created with your personal stuff on it.
    When you want to sync your iPhone to that computer, switch to your user first, and then everything will sync with your stuff. If he wants to hook up his iPhone to sync it, then he needs to switch back to his own username first.

  • Ipad air will only work with email address and not phone number

    Nobody can FaceTime me or message me using my telephone number, they can only do it using my email address, how do I get my phone number to work on ipad air

    Do you have an iPhone?
    You can only associate a phone number to messages and facetime if you have an iPhone.
    The iPhone will associate the number it has to your Apple Id which in turn will make it available to Facetime and Messages on the iPad, assuming it uses the same Apple ID.
    If you do have an iPhone, make sure you've activated Facetime and Messages on it so your Apple ID links to your number.

    all of a sudden my ipod will only hold a charge for an hour

    Strange, but if it's under a yr. old, you should still have a warranty on it, and Apple can replace it for you.

  • My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

    My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

    Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
    There is not a wireless method for importing videos from the iPad's Camera Roll.

  • Does airplay mirror only work with the ipad2 and not ipad1

    does airplay mirror only work with the ipad2 and not ipad1

    But can it still stream video wirelessly?
    For example, with the Digital AV Adapter I can watch video on my TV, but obviously it's wired.
    I'd like a wireless option.

  • IDVD will only burn to 16X discs and not 8X

    I replaced my original superdrive with a pioneer DVR-100 because it can burn at 16X speed and dual layer. Now, iDVD will only burn to 16X discs. When I try to use 8X discs I get an error message. iDVD will begin to write, the disc will spin up twice, then the disc is ejected. The really annoying thing is that it makes those discs unusable.
    Any ideas how to fix this.

    What brand DVD-R?
    I burn Verbatim DVD-R 16X at 4X all the time using a disk image and Toast (or Disk Utility). Try Verbatim. I use other brands too. In both of my "SuperDrives."
    Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save As Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD 5 project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

  • Printer will only print 280 X 202 and not full A4

    When I print or copy from my Deskjet 3050A J611 series, it will on print or copy 280 x 202, not the full A4 (297 x 210). The scanner however does scan the full A4. Printing problem is happening with both Word and Photoshop programmes. Any ideas?

  • Can only print with manual feed and NOT from the paper tray from websites

    When I try to print something from a website, I must manually feed the paper in the manual feed slot. It will not print from the tray. This problem does not happen when I print something from an email with no downloads or something from MSword or Excel. So, it's most likely a browser printer setting issue. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Probably related to printer preferences and how they relate to Firefox. If you did the complete reset all the printer setting that Firefox would saved would have been cleared and gone back to the default settings. Without familiarity with that specific printer ''(or even knowing which printer you are using)'' the best advice I can offer is to seek help from a support forum for that brand printer, or for you to reinstall the printer software to get back to the defaults.

  • Would like my macbook pro to only connect to time capsule and not to airport express that is extending network.  Is there a way to do this?

    I have a network set up with a main time capsule and airport express.  The airport express is configured to extend network.  While its fine for our iphones and ipad to connect to the express, I would like the Macbook pro to only connect to the time capsule as it seems to run faster.  Any way to do this?

    You are extending the 2.4ghz.. as that is the only way you can connect iphones.
    But if you have Gen2 or later TC you can setup 5ghz to use a different wireless name to 2.4ghz.. and it is much faster.. you need to be close to the TC though.. like in the same room.
    Make sure you download 5.6 airport utility if you haven't already.. go to the wireless options and the extra wireless area.. set a different wireless name (SSID in everybody but apple's book). Then you can deliberately select it.

  • An album which i bought from the i tunes store keeps sjumping to the next song half way through the song. It only happens with this album and not any others, how do i stop it doing that? cheers

    This is happening with the coldplay album parachutes which i bought the other day and has never worked properly.

    Delete the problem track from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track file to the Trash. Then download the track again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the track persist, go here:
    iTunes Support
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • All of the sudden, emails from an existing contact go to junk mail on my iphone and ipad (which you can't label as "not junk" and do not show up anywhere on my iMac.  What is going on?

    I just recently got an ipad Air and some odd things are happening.  I use Entourage on my iMac OS 10.6.8, and my iphone and ipad are getting emails into the junk folder and the email doesn't show up anywhere on my iMac.  You can't label an email "not junk" on the iphone or ipad, so what do I do?  So frustrated.

    What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

    Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

  • I have an all in one with wifi. It will only print one or one and a half pages

    My printer will only print one or one and a half pages at a time.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that your HP Envy 4500 printer will only print one or one and a half pages, on Windows 8.1. I am happy to look into this printing issue for you!  Some questions for you:  What happens when you try print multiple copies? Copying Documents.Do you see any error messages on the front panel of the printer when it stops printing? Does the paper get stuck inside the printer? What happens if you print from NotePad? 
    In the meantime, please try the HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know what happens!  Hope to hear from you soon!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”
