Can't browse internet on ipad2, but laptops works fine - any ideas?
Have a weird problem surfing the internet with my ipad2 that started out of the blue a few days ago. Everything had been working fine up until then and I don't remember changing anything or updating new software...
Can't browse the internet on the ipad anymore, and when i point browser at website, it thinks for awhile then brings up an earthlink page (my ISP). Still receives mail/twitter though, so some data is coming through, but facebook app isn't working. And my 2 laptops connect fine, full on browsing. Also seems like my wife's new iphone is having the same problem, starting at same time.
I really have no idea - anyone heard of this?
Try going to Settings > Safari> Clear History, Cookies, Cache on the iPad. If that doesn't work then do a reboot of the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.

My MacBook Pro won't connect to the Internet via wifi but it worked fine on ethernet cord...I tried running diagnostic but it didn't work:(((( it happen every time if I restart the modem and/or router.. Any idea how to fix this?
Hello Rattisate,
Sorry to hear you are not able to connect to Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro. I would be concerned about this too. You can find information on how to troubleshoot this in the following article:
Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
Follow the steps in the section labeled, "Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet."
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,

I have a US iPhone 3GS made in 2011. Now in the Philippines I had it unlocked. Now Internet is turned off and no technician can turn it on. I can only use Internet when I have WiFi access. Any ideas?
Please define "I had it unlocked".
If it was not unlocked by AT&T, then it was hacked. Hacked and jailbroken phones can not be discussed here per the TOS. -
Itunes won't load CDs automatically and I have to restart it everytime to load 1 CD. I have ensured I have latest Itunes, latest DVD driver, start itunes from program library in safe mode but nothing works. Any ideas ?
I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6. -
My iphone 4 has died and says connect to itunes. itunes restore wont work, error message 2001, then 2006 appears.Tried all the troubleshooting help, but nothing works. Any ideas???
I solved my own problem. Hopefully this will help someone else.
I did a DFU restore, then started it up as a new phone on iTunes. Everything loaded properly, then from iTunes did a restore from backup, selected the one I wanted and it still took me to the same screen with 3 options of restore. I chose the start up as new phone from the actual phone and after all the syncing was completed, my phone is back in working order. -
When I try to print, it does not even appear to "connect" to the printer software. Normally, a printer icon will pop up in the taskbar, but this does not happen with Firefox. Also, in Mac, you have the option of saving the webpage as a pdf document. When I try it, it only results in a blank page. The Browser that comes with a Mac, Safari, works fine and prints. Not sure if it's a setting in Firefox or something else.
Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4+ versions.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean) -
IPod Classic 5G 80GB is not docking but USB works fine. Ideas?
My iPod 5G 80GB Classic not docking to a few new radios I bought. I tried the Luna Voyager and also the Logitech Pure-fi Express Plus. Nothing happens (as if I wasn't docking it). The USB connection to my computer works fine. I tried reformatting the iPod, restoring from iTunes, boot diagnostics, etc. and nothing seems wrong. The products state I am supposed to be able to dock this iPod. Any ideas as to what might be going wrong? Could it be the v1.3 firmware or a hardware issue? Anyone knows the protocol and how to diagnose it properly?
The same problem I have today afternoon.
My car audio system is compatible with iPod USB connector and worked fine for also 6 months.
When connecting my iPod nano 6rd gen via USB to car audio system, iPod displays on its screen a sucessfull connection, and music tracks is successfully displayed on the car audio system. But do not play. Switch forward or backward by playlist (by the buttons on the car audio system) works also, but still there is no start playback.
I tried plugged my iPhone 5 via USB to car audio system - it's works fine.
I plugged iPod to my mac computer - itunes says it's all Ok.
I am confused and do not understand what is happening.
May be restoring to default factory settings iPod.... -
White Screen but laptop works fine
Hi everyone,
I have a 18 months old white Macbook. One month ago while I was using it the screen it suddenly went totally white.
The OS is working, I can use it with an external monitor where I can perfectly see what I am doing. However, the screen is white, I can change the brigthness and everything so my guess is that maybe is a connection problem but I do not know.
I have read some similar problem on the Internet but I do not know how to solve it. I went to a official apple retailer(we do not have apple store in Spain) and they told me that it should be a problem of the screen, replace it is too expensive and I do no think he is right.
Anyone knows what to do?
thank you very much
alWelcome to Apple Discussions!
1. Shut down the computer from the Apple menu.
2. Wait for the internal display to go blank.
3. Disconnect the external display.
4. Zap the PRAM following these directions:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
If that doesn't fix the problem, one of these places may charge less than Apple and have international service:

In the future, you have up to a year from date of computer's purchase to purchase two additional years of hardware warranty support. Note this is not insurance. However, as long as you don't tamper with the computer's innards, drop it, bang it, or spill on it, you have a good chance of having the display fixed free under the program.
You can sometimes fix the screen yourself if you can find the parts, by following directions from:

having trouble downloading ios5 keep getting error saying network timed out but network is fine
Hello Nitadoo,
u can make a new id and password by going to apple.com and clicking on the forgot id and forgot password button in login.
also u can go to a nearby apple store and tell them that u want a new apple id and password
maybe they'll even help u to retrieve ur old apple id and password
HOPE THIS'LL BE HELPFUL -
I have not knowingly changed anything. No new software - no new add-ons, etc.
Hello,
This happens in safe mode?

many thanks MarkReboot the iPad and see if that helps.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

i receive emails on my ipad2 but cannot send emails. any ideas? lindafromaz
Just a correction of Radiation Mac message:
You apparently Do have an Incoming POP or IMAP server set up (SMTP being only to send emails, not to receive).
Can you describe the settings you entered?
- What type of mail account (Gmail, Yahoo, Pop, ...)
- Are all the info properly filled (you can share them, but make sure to remove email/login/password for security)
- Is your email provider requiring a secure connection to the SMTP? Did you configure it properly? -
