  • Hi I have an Ipad 3 (new ipad) and it wont let me open up the screen, it just comes up with'this machine hasnt been backed up for so many weeks, when you press ok, it just stays there  and cant do anything else ???

    I Have an Ipad 3 and it wont let me open  the screen,it just comes up with 'This machine has not been backed up for so many weeks' and when you prsss ok nothing happens, its just locked out ,. Any Ideas ??

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I keep gdtting a pop up screen on my phone that says "connect to itunes to use push notifications".  I've connected and nothing happens.  I cant get the pop up to stop and cant do anything else with my phone.  What do I need to do?

    I keep getting a pop up on my iophone 5 that says "connect to itunes to use push notifications"  I've connected to itunes and nothing happens.  I cant use the phone as I can;t get the pop up to stop

    So after exhausting countless hours I just added the App "Google Search".  It's not as great of an interface but I can access Google Voice and keep tabs by just checking in every so often.  Better than not having Google Voice at all.

    Hi Mike, the Keyboard shouldn't matter, it should be OK in that respect.
    Your kind of stuck without any Install Disc to try to repair it or reinstall, but...
    Tough without the Install disc, but some things to try...
    Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
    (Space between fsck AND -fy important).

    Tough without the Tiger Disk problems, but try fsck...
    To use fsck, you must run it from the command line. Unlike using your mouse to open an application to do something, you'll need to type a text command at the prompt (#) to tell fsck what to do. The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) and single-user mode are two examples of command-line interfaces in which you can type such commands. To use fsck:
    1. Start up your computer in single-user mode to reach the command line. Hold CMD+s keys down at bootup.
Note: If necessary, perform a forced restart as described in the Emergency Troubleshooting Handbook that came with your computer. On desktop computers, you can do this by pressing the reset/interrupt button (if there is one) or holding down the power button for several seconds. On portable computers, simultaneously press the Command-Control-power keys. If your portable computer doesn't restart with this method, you may need to reset the Power Manager.
    2. At the command-line prompt, type /sbin/fsck -fy
    (SPACE between fsck AND -fy important)
    3. Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found:

    The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OK 
If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message:
***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***** 

Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
    4. When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.

    Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
    Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    Does it boot into Open Firmware with CMD+Option+o+f ?

    My big old IPod is stuff with an error stating Disk mode at top with a big check  mark in middle of screen and an OK to disconnect at the bottom. Please help I have a lot of reggae music I can't lose.

    Ok so I've done what you said and this is what it's come back ....
    I don't know that these are the errors , but they're the things which don't look right ...
    Throughout the shut down there is a recurring line ;
    It says ;
    Com.apple.launchd 1 0x100600e70.anonymous.unmount 301 PID still valid
    Then there are 2 more which I think are related ;
    Com.apple.securityd 29 PID job has I overstayed its welcome , forcing removal.
    Then the same with fseventd 48 and diskarbitrationd 13
    Oh and on Launchd1 : System : stray anonymous job at shut down : PID 301 PPID13 PGID 13 unmount...
    Then the last process says "about to call: reboot (RB_AUTOBOOT).
    Continuing...
    And stops ...
    Hope this means something to you ... Thanks again for your help so far :-)

    When i try to use my ipod it looks like the brightness was turned wayyyyy down. Like more than normal. I cant see anything. How do i fix it?

    Try:
    - 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.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    OR use this method
    1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen)and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the"Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
    3.You may let go when you see the silver Applelogo.
    Thats all Folks!!

  • Shortly after starting up, a dark 'film' slowly comes down over the screen and I get a message saying I have to shut down the computer.  I've tried to start from the disk, and before I can even run a repair off utilities, it happens again.  What's up?

    When I started my iMac today, it started beeping like an alarm horn.  I shut it down, and held the startup button a little longer to get it to start.  Shortly after starting up, a dark 'film' slowly comes down over the screen and I get a message saying I have to shut down the computer.  I've tried to start from the disk, and before I can even run a repair off utilities, it happens again.  What's up?  Am I screwed?  HELP!!

    What you are seeing is a kernel panic, often but not always connected with a hardware or peripheral issue, so, unplug everything except mouse and  keyboard, reboot and hold the shift key as soon as your hear the chime, continue holding it until you see the Apple Icon and spinning progress indicator, then post back.
    It will take noticeably longer than normal to start.

  • What can i do when my ipod screen goes white and i cant see anything?

    Please! Somebody give me some advice on what to do when my ipod is white and i cant see anything? i can listen to music but i cant see what i am listening to?

    If none of the usual 5 R's of troubleshooting do any good, you'll need to have the iPod either serviced or replaced as the LCD screen or ribbon cable is damaged or faulty.

    i own an ipod touch 5th gen ios 7.1 and while using it suddenly black and white vertical stripes appeared on the screen and now it wont turn on!!!what should i do?

    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.

  • Equium - Black screen and cant reboot with the recovery disc

    I have a black screen and cant reboot with the recovery disc but I seem to be getting nowhere.
    I find it strange I cant ask Toshiba direct about my problem but I have to wait for a kind hearted person to solve my problem or give me a helping hand

    Of course you can ask Toshiba. Toshiba has Authorized service providers worldwide and I hope some of them are in your country too.
    So please visit Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Download > Find an ASP and contact nearest service provider. Just explain the situation and I hope they will help you.
    Back to your problem:
    It is not easy to say why this happen. The whole issue is not described so well and I am missing some important points.
    Maybe you have upgraded RAM and now notebook doesnt start properly. It is also possible that CPU is defective. It can be so many different reasons for this.
    Best thing you can do is to contact service and ask for help. they can run diagnostic tools and find out quickly what the problem is.
