Batteries are working fine, but powercord will not charge them!

Hi i have 2 powerbooks, and one is not charging the batteries. I know for a fact that both batteries are fine because 1 PB charges them successfully, anyone got any idea what i could do to fix this? thx in advance.

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
There are 3 components to charging: Power adapter, battery, and logic board (and within that the dc-in card). If the adapters and batteries are good, then the dc-in card may have failed, which would be the next component in the chain. The dc-in card contains the jacks that the power adapter plugs into on the side of the Powerbook. You can see a picture of it at http://www.pbparts.com/shop//a15dlsdpsb.html
You can try the Apple hardware test, however, I don't recall it being particularly good at pointing out charging issues. It would be on the first OS X DVD that came with your system (should say 'AHT Vx.x' in small print on the DVD). Insert it, and reboot holding the option key down, follow directions and choose the extended test.

I have paid for creative cloud, photoshop works fine but it will not let me register Lightroom

Lightroom must be installed via the Creative Cloud Application.
It sounds like you have installed a Perpetual Licensed Version or a Trial Version of Lightroom. Uninstall any versions you have installed of Version 5 and then reinstall via the Creative Cloud App.

Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them. Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport). What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

First thing to try is reset Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
Next would be reset the router (power off 15 secs then back on). And, 2 minutes later, reset the printers 1 by 1.

Something is wrong with your charger or cable.
If it works with another charger, then it is not the iphone

i am getting the same error with my rf transmitter that i use in my car

- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Did this start happening after an iOS update? Sometimes an iOS update will break compatibility.
Sometimes this works:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I have an old iPhone 3Gs with software version 4.3.5, I am trying to use it again, and it works fine, but I have not been able to update the software. Every time I try, I get the following message:
"there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone, the network connection could not be established". This happens even though I have a working internet connection.
Besides that, all the other functions work properly, even synchronize apps and library.
Will I be able to update the software?

look around the forum tons of people repport that they can't update
makes you suspect that apples update servers can't meet the depand of too many users
trying to update at once

Synchronization from SLD to LMDB is working fine, but data is not written to Software == Product Instance

Dear Gurus,
Synchronization from SLD to LMDB is working fine, but data is not written to Software ==> Product Instance section tab. What could be the problem ? Normally it should gather automatically, but pushed me to select manually lots of component ???
Here is collecting is working fine !!!

Hello Kemal,
You have to ensure that your Technical System info is properly filled automatically.
In LMDB you first create its Product System on LMDB Start Screen ProductSystem tab, after that please assign its respective Technical System. You probably need to run the Verification Check in order to confirm that your Product System has all Product Instances according on Technical System's Software Component Versions.
Regards.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

New AEBS installed, Vonage initially worked fine, but now is not.

I recently upgraded my home network, ditching the Linksys WRT54G router I had in favor of a new Airport Extreme Base Station. everything has been working fine, but all of a sudden I noticed that my Vonage adapter wasn't connected and was spitting out error 001.
The Vonage adapter is plugged into a 10/100 hub that's uplinked to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS (I know it's a waste, but nothing on that segment is gigabit capable…)
I launched into full troubleshooting mode, and determined that the cabling, hub and AEBS are all functioning perfectly. I also don't think that it could be a port forwarding issue, since several days passed between the time I swapped in the AEBS and the time when the Vonage adapter stopped working. In that time, several incoming and outgoing calls took place over the Vonage line and all was fine.
On a whim, I connected the Vonage adapter to a laptop and set it up with a static IP and attempted to configure port forwarding to it in the AEBS, but there was no change. Incidentally, with the static IP on the Vonage adapter, I was able to ping it from other computers on the network, but it still isn't able to download it's config from the outside world.
Vonage tech support has been willing to help, but unable to tell me anything useful thus far.
My question is, is anyone here using such a setup, and if so have you seen any issues like this? I'm really thinking that the adapter has given up the ghost, but I don't know.

To help you with your troubleshooting you should visit https://forums.vonage.com/
I had Vonage. Initially it worked then I had tremendous voice dropouts. After weeks of troubleshooting with Vonage (they rolled back firmware in their adapter) it worked... for about 6 months. Then the same problem reappeared. Troubleshooting with Vonage could not solve the issue this time. Since I had to have phone service, I cancelled Vonage and went to ITP. Unfortunately Vonage stuck me with cancellation fees even though their service would not work for me.

Can not connect the ipad 2 to wireless router. been working fine but some reason not working now being trying to solve this since 4pm today

Can anyone help can not get my ipad to connect to wireless today. has been working fine but all of a sudden will not connect to Router. I have a kindle and a mobile and both of these will connect to the router wireless but the ipad will not.
Been to my parents with the i pad and this will connect to their wireless router.
Can not think of anything else to try

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
 Cheers, Tom
