Your not the first (if knowing that helps). There's a fairly lengthy disussion about similiar situations in the link below. Perhaps there's something in there that will help. Good luck with it.

Hello. I have a new Iphone 5S and the charger taht came with the phone doesn´t charge my Iphone. The cable is good because I´m charging the phone via my PC. I tried every recomendation posted here but none helped me...I live in Argentina and we don´t have local support here, I would´ve ask for a new one but it´s not an option here. Does anyone know what can I do? Thanks in advance. Regards.
I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport" it replies it cannot locate it)
I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
Perhaps iOS Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
Use Google Maps instead
BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top! -
Laserjet 1020 printer doesn't work through airport express. PLEASE help me
Hi everyone. I've just bought a laserjet 1020, and though I can perfectly "see" it through the airport admin utility, there is no way to have a page printed. Works perfectly when connect it to the laptop through usb though. I have already tried every iFelix solutions, changed drivers (HP 1022, etc.), bonjour for windows, manual configurations, etc. Is there something else out there that I didn't figure out? Please help me. I'm in one of those moments where there are no more ways left to check out in google. I will really appreciate any advice.
Regards,
Martin.There are issues with regard to HP and Apples.
I take it that your Laserjet is plugged into the XP computer and that you are tryiny to print to it over a network.
Try this:
Go to System Preferences> click on "+" to "Add Printer", at the next page click on "More printers", this should then bring up a box with the name of your network in it. It will then show the name of your Apple and that of the PC into which the LAN cable from the router is plugged, click on this PC and the next box should throw up the name of the printer, click on this, then DON"T click on ADD but on the slot with "Generic" showing, you can then scroll down the list to Laserjet, click on that and find the "Gimp" version of the driver with your printer's model number, this is the one you should ADD.
Now this may work first time, unlikely given Apple's track record of network printing foul ups; you may have it print only a 1/4 page. If this happens, try "ADDing" a driver from higher up the Laserjet range; this is what I had to do to get my Canon iP3000 to work (I use the iP8000 driver with reasonable success)
There are also CUPS+GIMP drivers in the list; with the Canon these just printed a 1/4 page of solid black, nice for the ink manufacturers, but expensive for us!
The Gimp drivers are a third party product, 2 years out of date, and for which Apple accept no responsibility. -
The finger print scanner doesn't work 90% of the time please help! I have tried everything.
Dose any one else have problems with the iPhone 5s finger print scanner??
I've tried rescanning, different fingers, scanning different ways. But 95% of the time it just won't work. It is soooo frustring!! I would have saved a bunch of $ and bought a 5 or 5c if I wanted a phone that didn't fingerprint scan. has any one got advice that can help? It would be appreciated. I do work with my hands ( manual labour) but it's not like I tear up my fingers every day. Any help would be appreciated.
Peter.If any one is still reading this thread you would know that I've been having problems with my finger print scanner. Well it turns out that the issue is not with the 5s but with my fingers. My fingers are too big for the scanner, so if your having trouble with your scanner try using just the very tip of your finger. I did a lot of research on my issue and found nothing suggesting this. My brother had the idea that this might be the problem and turns out he was right. Since rescanning the tip of my finger I have 100% success rate and am very happy with my new phone. Thanks again for all the help I got from people on this issue.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Printing Swing components doesn't work on all printers? Please Help!
I have a really serious problem. I try to print Swing components with the so called PrintUtilities class. The source code can be found here: http://archive.corewebprogramming.com/Chapter15/printing/PrintUtilities.java).
My Swing components are panels (JPanel) including more panels and/or other components like text fields, text areas, combo boxes, radio buttons, check boxes and so on.
On one of my printers (Kyocera mita FS 1010) it works fine. But on other printers (Panasonic DP-2000, HP Deskjet 890 C) the results are weird: Only the first component (independent of the component depth) is printed (and it is every time the same result!).
I don't know whether this is important or not, but all printers I use are installed as network printers.
I have already searched the forum but couldn't find a similar problem.
Can anyone tell me what the problem is and what I can do to solve it?
Thank you for any response in advance!try this:
package ayto;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.print.*;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
public class ComponenteParaImprimir
implements Printable {
private Component mComponent;
boolean isBook;
final static boolean PARA_BOOK = true;
final static boolean HARDCOPY = false;
public ComponenteParaImprimir(Component c, boolean book) {
mComponent = c;
isBook = book;
public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pageFormat, int pageIndex) {
if (pageIndex > 0 && !isBook) {
return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.translate(pageFormat.getImageableX(), pageFormat.getImageableY());
boolean wasBuffered = disableDoubleBuffering(mComponent);
mComponent.paint(g2);
restoreDoubleBuffering(mComponent, wasBuffered);
return PAGE_EXISTS;
private boolean disableDoubleBuffering(Component c) {
if (c instanceof JComponent == false) {
return false;
JComponent jc = (JComponent) c;

I'm trying to print a document from safari and the print command is at the bottom of the page and I can't move it up. The print command shortcut doesn't work and I would like to know how I can print this document.
Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

My internal hard drive isn't being recognized on my macbook pro but when I put the HD in my Mac Pro (desktop), the desktop computer recognizes the HD. When I insert the installer CD on my laptop, it also doesn't recognize my hard drive. Please help! Thank you!
I've also been getting an image with the folder and question mark. I've tried everything on the apple support page but it doesn't seem to work either.Well, I tried all of your suggestions and they didn't work -- no surprise because I was trying to backup to my external c.d. disk. Duh! The application for the home is in the mail.

How can I add a new Template to My Templates in Pages? I've read most of the discussions on the subject but it doesn't work for me. By the time I reach the Templates folder, I only see templates for Numbers and not for Pages. Need help, please. Thanks
Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
iWork > Pages
contenant Templates > My Templates
comme il y a un dossier
iWork > Numbers
contenant Templates > My Templates
Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
puis lancez la recherche.
Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.
Pour moi il est temps de dormir.

Updated iTunes to 10.5, iTunes won't work now! Everytime I open iTunes it just freezes and I can't click on anything. It says to take it out of compatibility mode and still doesn't work! any help??
Thank you. NickOkay, we'll try the technique from the following post. Be sure to be logged in to your usual user account when doing so. (Otherwise you'll be editing the wrong set of HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys.)

I upgraded to 20gb iCloud but it isn't enough to back up. I get constant error messages saying there is no backup space and I've not been able to use the upgrade. Apple promised to refund then didn't. Please help is there anyway I can use this space?If you were told they would refund the price for the iCloud storage - Contact AppleCare and ask to speak with a senior advisor. Have the case number for the promised refund available.
If you are trying to update your device, but you don't have sufficient space to download and install the update, you need to delete content from your device. Buying storage in iCloud does not add space to the device which is what you need.
You can always update using a computer with iTunes installed - this method is faster, and will allow you to make a backup on the local computer (Local backups restore faster than iCloud backups).

I am trying to print wirelessly from my ipad to an epson stylus SX438W. The connection appears fine on both devices but the ipad cannot connect to the printer. It has been working fine for the past 4 months. Can anyone help?
Have you tried restarting the printer? Reboot the iPad as well.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
