Can't get hand off working

i have hand off enabled on iPad and iPhone but it won't work can someone tell me how to get it to work please?

Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
Handoff
Use Handoff with Apple apps such as Mail, Safari, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Maps, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, Contacts. You can also use Handoff with some third-party apps. Start a document, email, or message on one device and pick up where you left off on another device.
To use Handoff:
On both devices, you'll need to turn on Bluetooth and sign in to the same iCloud account.
Use one of the apps listed above on one of your devices.
On your second device, swipe up from the bottom-left edge of the Lock screen, where you see the app’s activity icon.
You can also go to the multitasking display by double-clicking the Home button. Then tap the app.
To turn off Handoff on your devices, go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps.

My iPhone 5 went black. I tried pushing the on/off button and the circle button at the same time. It worked once and then it happened again and I can't get it to work.

Iphone 5 went black. Tried pushing on/off and circle at the same time. Worked yesterday and then did it again today. Can't get it to work.

You need to hold those button longer until you see the apple logo, then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

I have a question. For the past week I have not been able to access my iTunes app it always kicks me out. I've turned it off and on and still nothing. I was wondering how can I get it to work or what should I do. Thank you

You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection
Try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- 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.

Hello,
I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10sec. or until Apple logo appears (Nothing will be lost, this is just a "Hard Reset")
Hope that helps!
If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
Cheers!

I have a G4 Quicksilver that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new iMac?

I have a G4 Quicksilver 2001 that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new late 2013 iMac?

Also, how do I boot the G4 into FireWire Target Disk mode?
First, the G4 must be able to start to use FWTDM. If it can start, hold the t key at boot until you get a "screensaver pattern" that looks like this:
If the G4 is attached via a FireWire cable to a newer Mac with a FireWire port, the G4's hard drive will appear on the other Mac's desktop just as if it were any external drive. A USB cable won't work for FWTDM.
Just wondering if the drive in my G4, which I believe may be an ATA drive will also work in an enclosure for a SATA drive?
No. ATA (actually "PATA" or "IDE") and SATA are different interfaces. PATA external enclosures are now very hard to find. You best and least expensive option is the adaptor that BDAqua linked. One of its connectors is for PATA drives.

The air port on my imac went off and i can not get it to work

my air port on the imac weny off and i can not get it to work now

Apple used to use airport name for everything.. is this the internal wireless card?? Or external airport router?
If it is the internal wireless card, is it still listed in system profile.. and do a hardware test with your original CD.
See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
The problems with Mavericks are very great.. if you upgrade installed anything can happen.. a common feature is the internal wireless card fails to work.
Give details and we can figure it out.
Here is discussion about the same thing as I think has happened to your imac in macbook.

MY ipod Touch is Stuck & says Disabled it will not come out of that screen at all. How can I get that off so my device will work

MY ipod Touch is Stuck & says Disabled it will not come out of that screen at all. How can I get that off so my device will work

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad?

When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad? I don't want to lose my apps and photos!
Help would be much appreciated!

If you are getting the connect to iTunes screen then it's too late to take a new backup and/or copy anything off it. Prior to starting the update did you take a backup, either to the cloud and/or to your computer's iTunes ? If not then have you recently taken a backup that might have your photos and apps content/settings in it ?
As long as the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them via the Purchased tab in the App Store app (and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes), and if the apps store their content on a server/cloud service then you might be able to get their content back from that - if they store their content on the device then you will need to have a backup.
For our photos you could try doing a search for programs that claim to be able to recover content from a device - I haven't used any so I can't suggest one.

HT1695 My iPad shows it is connected to the Internet wherever there is free wifi but it is getting up and I can't get it to work? I tried rebooting but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

My iPad shows it is connected to the Internet wherever there is free wifi but it is getting up and I can't get it to work? I tried rebooting but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

Try turning the email account off and then turn it on again. Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select your gmail account>Off. Go to the mail app and then come back to the account in the settings and turn it on again.
If you can't find any other way for the iPad to accept the password, delete the email account and then add it back onto the iPad.

How can you get songs off your IPAD if you have it on there two times

I have the same song on my Ipad two times how can I get them off.

On the page where you have your songs, on the right hand side of the song, swipe your finger to the right and the delete button will appear. It only takes a quick swipe. If you hold your finger in on the song first, it will start playing.

Using airport extreme in china - can't get it to work

I just moved to china and have been trying to set up a new Airport Extreme dual band to my high speed internet connection but can't get it to work (bought the AE in the US and worked fine there). I have a Green light on the physical AE, and in Network Status section under Network Diagnostics I get green lights on Airport, Network Settings and ISP, but yellow/red on Internet and Server. The type of internet connection is direct, supplied by China Telecom with no router/modem in my unit, but with ethernet cable running directly to the phone room connection. I manually set up the AE using the same IP address, subnet, DNS as shows up when I plug the ethernet cable directly into my computer, with the internet working fine with a direct connection to computer and no AE.

What you did makes complete sense Mike, but if you don't have access to the router you may have to get your ISP to recognize your Extreme's MAC address:
AirPort Base Station: ISP provisioning may prevent Internet connection via broadband (cable or DSL)
For example: Suppose that you have a computer connected to a cable modem before purchasing an AirPort Base Station. Your Internet service provider might recognize your computer's MAC address as the correct one for your account. Your new base station then takes the position on your network that was formerly occupied by your computer, but you have not taken any action to let your Internet service provider (or its hardware) know the new address. The base station then sends packets to your Internet service provider that do not contain the required MAC address, and the packets are ignored.
It may be as simple as leaving everything disconnected from your service provider for a period of time. You might also try turning Connection Sharing "off" (bridge mode).

Can't get slideshow to work!

Sorry about yet another basic question, but I can't get slideshow to work.
I have created a My Photos page template, dragged an Album into it. That looks OK, but when I click on play slideshow, nothing happens.
Enable Slideshow is ticked in Inspector.
Any help on this?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? How are you uploading the files? Maybe not all files are getting to the server. Wouldn't be the first time that happened.

Can't get netcfg2 to work

hey guys, I can't get netcfg2 to work on my machine... really annoying upgrade check this:
[network.d]% diff examples/wpa.example home
1,2c1,2
< CONNECTION="wireless"
< INTERFACE=wlan0
> CONNECTION="home"
> INTERFACE=eth1
5,6c5,6
< ESSID="mynetwork"
< KEY="SomePasskey"
> ESSID="Lebowski"
> KEY="foobar"
[network.d]% sudo netcfg2 home
> home is not a valid connection, check spelling or look at examples
Any ideas? Also, why do I have to specify CONNECTION="foo"? the filename is enough to get the name, no?

I can't get work netcfg2...
if I run
iwconfig wlan0 essid SpeedTouch5F3851 enc open s:LesPiTTareL
it works great, I can connect to my wireless network but...
if I configure my /etc/network.d/celadina in this way:
CONNECTION="wireless"
DESCRIPTION="Connessione wireless casa Bergamo"
INTERFACE=wlan0
ESSID=SpeedTouch5F3851
KEY=LesPiTTareL
SECURITY=wep
IP="static"
IFOPTS="192.168.1.70 netmask 255.255.255.0"
GATEWAY=192.168.1.254
and running
netcfg2 celadina
I get this error message
:: celadina up - Could not set wireless configuration [FAIL]
[root@Arials skioppetto]# "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
I think the error is in SECURITY but I can0t find a solution... I've tried also with IWOPTS and if I don't
define SECURITY it doesn't give any errors but it can't connect becouse key remains off
I use rt61 wireless module; when I connect trough the first way I don't get any wep modules loaded even if it works...
I think the problem could be the kernel module.
What do you think about?
