Apple took away my printer's drivers (HP Laserjet P1005) in Mavericks. What should I do?
I own a HP Laserjet P1005 that's shared in a wireless network, used by 2 pcs, a Macbook and several iPhones. All of them can print normally, only my Macbook doesn't. It lists the network and recognize the printer, but Mavericks took away the drivers from the list, leaving only two options: HP Deskjet Series and HP Laserjet Series PCL 4/5. I've chosen both PCL Generic and PostScript Generic too, and the PCL 4/5 option, none of them work. It adds the printer, but when I try printing, a dialog box opens and it keeps asking for a password, while I'm a guest in the network, so, it's unecessary (it has been always this way, no trouble whatsoever). BTW, back in Lion there was a comprehensive list, including my printer model. Now the drivers for my specific printer model are gone and I can't configure it without them. What should I do?
This didn't help me. I have a trusty old HP Deskjet 832c that was not included in http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907. But downloading the Gutenprint 5.2.9 driver fixed the problem:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php (It's the first one listed under Downloads.)
Note: I read elsewhere you should begin by resetting the printer system to purge it of any old drivers, so I did that first. Here is how to do it:

When I downloaded iOS 6 or whatever to my iPhone 4S, it took away my sounds like texting, ringtones, iTunes, and speakerphone. What do I do?
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

Some please help me. I tried to re start my iphone 4, but it went something wrong. instead of it turned black and tunred on again. it like a gray color. When i took out my card i can see the light inside it. what should i do turned it back on again..
At the AT&T store. Tried using iCloud but only 120 songs were transferred and when I access my iTunes account now it only shows 120 and not the 450 anymore that I purchased on my old phone. Tried to sync again from the phone to iTunes and it still not working.
I purchased everything under the same apple ID account I called apple support and spent almost 2 hours with tech support for assistance and we got disconected and they never called me back.
I'm at the point where I'm about to never purchase anything anymore from apple go to another company retrieve every single charge made on my bank account from iTunes and file a law suit against the company. It's being a week that I called for assistance and no one called me back to help me with this matter even after I responded a survey with a complaint about not getting a resolution to my problem.
If you could please help me I will appreciate, I'm out of the country now and can't stay on the phone for a long time.
I need to sell my old phone but as right now besides all my bank statements the old phone is the only evidence that I purchased the songs. -
The ipad was fell foot away from the floor and the screen was totally blackout. what should i do?what is the damage the hardware or the software
Probably safe to assume if you can no longer turn it on, you probably have hardware damage. Take it in to an Apple store or Authorized Service center to have it checked out, but the warranty will not covver this.

iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
(Here's that part I'm bolding for you to reference): Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .
Exactly. It keeps a collection of the most recent 1000 photos in your Photostream Album on your iOS device. That's the limit of the displayed images on an iOS device. Not the upper limit of storage. It's like the call history. You can have more than 100 calls, but only the most recent 100 calls show on the device. You can still get your entire call history from your wireless carrier. And you can still download all of your Photostream photos from Photostream using iCloud Control panel on a PC, or the iCloud option in System Preferences on a Mac.

If I have a 2009 iMac, can I upgrade to use it with Apple TV. It doesn't have Airplay capability. If possible, what should I buy?
You need a newer 2011 or later iMac to use Airplay.
Sorry.
For older Mac, look at an app called AirParrot

I have not turned it off but it has been stuck in the same spot for 30 minutes now and I'm not sure what to do next since the screen says to NOT turn it off until done. Please help.If it hangs much longer you may need to disconnect and then grab a micro USB to restore through iTunes

i'm not able create my apple id without credit card. i can't see the option 'none'. what should i do?
Did you create a NEW account using the instructions in Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card using an email address you had not previously used with Apple?
You have to.
Maybe that option is not available in your country. It works in the USA -
I have an Apple ID, I can't login into Apple store and iTunes , it keeps declining my payment details. Please what should I do?
What are you trying to use as your payment method, credit card, debit card ... ? Debit cards don't appear to still be accepted in all countries, and even where they are it seems (based on what some people have posted) that not all work.
For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use a debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
Do you have a different card that you could try ? Or do you get the 'none' option on the payment details screen (that would allow you to download free items) ? If you are being prompted to review your account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054 -
