**** Bluetooth and keyboard issues after latest itunes and 10.6.5 update.-

read below
Message was edited by: Paulman!

Have been experiencing intermittent keyboard, trackpad and usb mouse function issues after installing the latest system and itunes updates, which was yesterday or day before.
(Lost even some work because the only way to get things moving was to restart.)
Tried solution (verify and repair disc permissions) that coconutmunk recommends under similar topic from 2007:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1190210
That solution fixed worst part of the problem: getting all 3 parts irresponsive.
It seems as problem is still not entirely solved as computer has once tried to lock all 3 again, however before I had chance to get concerned it locked up all 3 again by itself.
Yet, usb mouse keeps on getting disconnected every now and then randomly, even after 2 runs with disc permission solution.
Conclusion from 2007topics where people had issues with keyboards and/or mouse devices, was that it was Leopard system having those problems, nothing like that was reported in about Tiger system, as it seems.
Now, those problems were fixed back then with an update, but seems this new update has brought back old issues!
Frankly, I really do not have time with computer issues, on top of Maya being characteristically moody already every now and then, as I have to be done with a pretty big project only within few days!
Please PLEASE, Apple crew, fix this issue asap!
I really need those things working properly quick!
Thanks in advance!

Wireless mouse and Keyboard Issue after closing the lid - external display

Can anyone give any insight. Recent purchase of a new Late 2008 15" MBP. I have connected it to an external 24" Apple monitor on my desk and use a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard on my desk top. I have configured the laptop to wake on bluetooth devices. So here is the problem: The laptop when the lid is up recognizes the bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I close the lid/screen. Laptop powers down... the after several seconds I move the mouse and the laptop comes alive... But after that there are no bluetooth devices attached. When I use the mouse, I get "connection lost" with a white figure of the mighty mouse on the screen. The wireless keyboard is not there and I have to open the lid and manually find the mouse and reconnect. The keyboard seems to work however....
Apple..... any thoughts..... anyone?????

Hi Stentdoc; I'm thinking, 'connection lost ~= sorta low AA batteries in the Mighty Mouse? (I would put in fresh AA batteries in the mouse and keyboard, to eliminate as an issue that the 'connection lost' is due to low batt voltage; that this is causing the failure to wake.) ... then, in System Preferences > Hardware > Energy Saver, settings for Power Adapter > Sleep, set to "never" for "Put the computer to sleep when it is inactive for ..." to eliminate that as a conflict when trying to wake with bluetooth from sleep induced by closing the lid ...
Check your current "Sleep" setup (I left my MBP as "3")
go to Utilities > Terminal
After you launch Terminal, the first step is to determine which sleep mode your Mac is currently using. You can both view and change the sleep mode using the Unix program pmset. To see your current settings, type (or, copy and paste)
pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
press 'enter'
You should see something like this:
$ pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
hibernatemode 3
So your machine is using mode 3 ... thanks to the documentation for the handy Deep Sleep Dashboard widget, which puts your machine immediately into hibernation mode (so you don’t have to yank all the power sources to invoke it):
* 0 - Old style sleep mode, with RAM powered on while sleeping, safe sleep disabled, and super-fast wake.
* 1 - Hibernation mode, with RAM contents written to disk, system totally shut down while “sleeping,” and slower wake up, due to reading the contents of RAM off the hard drive.
* 3 - The default mode on machines introduced since about fall 2005. RAM is powered on while sleeping, but RAM contents are also written to disk before sleeping. In the event of total power loss, the system enters hibernation mode automatically.
also, I enabled this (to change back, input "lidwake 1":
go to Utilities > Terminal
type in sudo pmset lidwake 0 then "enter"
it will ask for your password. type it in, that's it!
Now, when your computer is sleeping with the lid closed, when you open the lid nothing happens until you press any key ... nice: keeps it off when accidentally opened, like in a backpack?

Trouble with 4G and other issues after latest update.

To whom it may concern,
After the recent update I have been having the following problems:
I lose 4G in many places where I was receiving great 4G access before.
Battery life seems to have suffered a little, this may be due to 4G hunting.
New software applications were installed like the Caller ID app, and flipboard. I hate when software is installed without my authorization and then cannot be removed. What year do we live in Verizon?
I have heard on this and other forums that a factory reset does not resolve these issues but Verizon claims that it is the final resolution. We should not have to do a factory reset after an update. I understand that there are many variables to consider with all the apps out there but that is what testing is for. That is why we wait for updates from Verizon.
I will attempt a factory reset to resolve my issues. If this does not resolve the issues I will be contacting Verizon about a refund for the 4G access that I am now being denied.
Thanks
AlphaDanger

Hey AlphaDanger!
The year is 2013 and I read you loud and clear on wanting to make sure your software operates smoothly on your GS3. So, let's make that happen.
Right off the bat, thank you for the details as well as considering a hard reset. But, I'd like to make another recommendation if you have yet to do it. Instead, I'd suggest wiping the cache partition. To do this:
1.) Power off your phone.
2.) Simultaneously hold the volume up key, home key, and power key.
3.) When it vibrates, release only the power key.
4.) When you see the Android recovery menu, wipe cache partition using the volume down toggle and power key to select.
5.) Then select "Reboot System Now".
Please let us know how this goes.

Bluetooth wireless keyboard issues after iOS 4.3 upgrade

I use the Kensington iPad case with wireless bluetooth keyboard, model K39294. Since the upgrade to iOS 4.3, the keyboard shows it is paired, but won't connect and the bluetooth icon on the iPad stays greyed out. To get them to connect and work I have to forget the device in the iPad settings/general/bluetooth menu and then re-pair them. The keyboard will work for a day, but then stops working again. The connect button on the keyboard doesn't resolve the issue either.
Any one else experiencing this issue and have a fix?

I am having this same problem... Only with iPad 3 and update to iOS 7
It worked perfectly before. :(

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

When I move my mouse Itunes stops playing. This was happening before I installed latest version. I have installed latest version three times. First and install, then as a repair, and third time I unistalled Itunes and reinstalled i.

when I move my mouse Itunes stops playing music. Sometimes this happens immediatly and sometime it take 10 to 15 sec. I tried playing Itunes and then tabing another program but same result. If I click on play and do not move mouse Itunes works as usual.. This was happening before I installed latest version. I have installed latest version three times. First and install, then as a repair, and third time I unistalled Itunes and reinstalled i.

At various stages over the years, mouse-related iTunes trouble has been associated with driver conflicts. So it might be worth following up on that possibility.
Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of PC, and check to make sure you're not behind on any chipset and input-device-related driver updates. (And while there, just in case, also check to make sure your BIOS, sound-card/integrated audio, and video-card/display-adaptors are up to date.)
If you're behind on anything, and you update, does that help with the mouse-related iTunes issues?

I was badgered into installing the latest Itunes and now I cannot find my music nor my podcasts. Where the **** did they go and how can I get them back? You folks at Apple sure make it hard to like you or want to use your products.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't normally lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the main iTunes library folder (and subfolders if possible) from any real-time scanning process.

I downloaded the latest iTunes and I now can't open it or download another iTunes also the icon has turned to an application icon also no safari server

I downloaded the latest iTunes and I now can't open it or download another iTunes also the icon has turned to an application icon also no safari server

Take a look at this Apple document -> iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
Are you seeing a user-specific or system-wide problem?
Also, on a Mac you can reset Safari from Safari> Reset Safari, you'll probably see a similar option in the Safari menubar on your Windows computer.

Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and cannot delete anything from my iPhone

Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and cannot delete anything from my iPhone. I need to delete a playlist to make room for a new one, but Delete does not even show up as an option (nor does the delete key on my keyboard delete anything.

Could you possibly be more vague?
If you want help you have to provide details, not just "I can't synch my phone". Why can't you synch? What error messages do you get? Give us something.
