Can't use most of the apps i need.
Hello fellow apple users.
iPad 1
iOS 5.1.1
At the time i bought the iPad, i paid for a insurence from the store (not apple care). After 3 years my iPad fell few weeks ago and i offered it for repair. After 2 weeks i got a replacement iPad 1. After installing some of my most used apps, i came to a conclusion around 1/3 of the apps i wanted to install needed a higher iOS version then i had. I looked into the iPad and couldn't update it too a higher version. So at this moment i can't use alot of apps (including some i bought). Already talked to someone from the support and they said they can't do anything for me. The only thing i could do was buy a new iPad or call the companies from the not working apps. The last one is very stupid in my opinion because already 4/9 apps i tried to install didn't work and i dont like paying lots of money for calling all those companies and accomplish nothing. Is there any solution for this problem. I don't know what to do at this point. The iPad i have now is fast enough for me and works great besides all the importent apps i cant use and i dont feel like buying another iPad if this one works very well.
Is there anyone who can help me with this problem?
Try this similar procedure that a user did on an iPad 1 to get Netflix.

On your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it.
Cheers, Tom

I can't stop most of the apps on my phone that use high battery. Example Google play services and Google search, facebook messager, weather. Please help.
On some apps they'll let you Uninstall them back to Factory setting but once you do that I would then go to your setting in the play store and check Do not Auto Update Apps" that is what I have mine set too.. One thing to Not on that setting it will stay at that position until the PlayStore get an update itself once that o cures you have to reset the setting back to Do Not Auto Update Apps...

I CAN'T USE OR DOWNLOAD THE APPS!
After I download the ios5, I should download all the apps again, Cuz they just being Crashed and never works.
And today, I was trying to download the free app called ;Star warfare : Invasion of Alien
and it said the app is being modified.
Also, Whenever I download the apps, they said that Rack city, Black and Yellow (Songs and Videos I download) can't be download.
Those things are driving me crazy! What should I do!?you are using 2 appstore accounts. the one you are not signed into is the one used to 'purchase' the apps that wont download.

Ipod touch 2g - updated to 3g by itunes
My ipod touch has bad battery power, is there any way to replace the battery .
Also it cant install most of the apps , so I was wondering if apple will replace my ipod touch 2g for another ipod touch better gen .Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one.
Apple - Recycling Program for iPod and Mobile Phones
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. May not be worth it for the old 2G. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the battery for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. Yo can purchases a replacement battery for about $10

Got an iPhone 3G, but can't use most of the features in South Africa-HELP!
Hi there.
I got my iPhone about 4-5 months ago in South Africa. I love the hardware, I love the way it looks, what you can do with it, etc. But there's one thing I find really really annoying, and that is the fact that I can't use the phone features that users in other countries have access to.
No, I haven't run into any technical problems.
The problem is that we have hardly anything available in our iTunes store. I invite you to switch your iTunes browser to the South Africa store and check it out... Yup, that's right, we have no music, movies, TV shows, podcasts or audiobooks. So what do we have? Some apps... yep some, but from the looks of it a greatly reduced list. Many apps I've found links to on the net, which people recommended, are simply not in our store. Even free apps, for example Google Earth.
But the most glaring omission is the Games category... yep, not a single game available to South African users.
So, to get an iPhone here requires a 2 year contract and another $300 on top of that for the 8GB version, so it surely isn't cheap... and yet I can't even make a custom ringtone because only music downloaded from the iTunes store can be used... I could do that on my very first Nokia phone which was a dinosaur w.r.t. technology compared to the iPhone.
I honestly don't understand it...
So, what help do I need?
I need to find out who I can contact at Apple to reason with regarding the content of our iTunes store. I find it unacceptable that people who hack their phones have a FAR better experience than people who do the right thing. So, if you work at Apple and read this or you know someone at Apple that could perhaps help me find the correct person/people to talk to about this, then please please send me a mail with the appropriate details. My email address is [email protected] (yes, I'll even post my email address on a public forum )
I don't think I am being unreasonable to expect a good level of service for a high end product, and at this point I am really unhappy with the service. Not the customer support etc, in fact the people I've had contact with are helpful, except that they cannot provide me with the information I need.
If you can help, then thank you very much.
Take care.
- EmileHi there.
Thank you neuroanatomist for the info on creating a ringtone. I'll try it.
I should perhaps have mentioned that I have tried all the official channels, including contacting support and sending feedback over the last couple of months. The support people sympathise but can't really help me and I haven't received anything w.r.t. the feedback I have sent, more than once.
I'm now turning to the other users in the hope that someone can get me into contact with a person/people inside Apple that might be able to shed more light on this.
I've already contacted our local distributors and my mobile phone provider and they have told me that it is Apple and only Apple who decide what is available in the store.
W.r.t. licensing etc, I suspect that there may be some legalities involved here, however it's not like we are on a different planet - we get the same DVDs and movies and TV programs here as everywhere else - just not on the iTunes store... So once again everything points back to Apple and not to local laws. As far as I know our laws w.r.t. media are pretty standard and mostly based on UK law, but I am no legal expert.
I would even be happy to get a "we know it's not great, we're working on it", or a "it may take some time, but hang in there" ... but I haven't even been able to get that... which is extremely frustrating.
Take care,
Emile. -
IPod Touch, 1st generation, can't use iTunes or the App Store
I have an iPod Touch running iOS 3.1.3. All of a sudden, I can no longer buy music off iTunes or apps off the App Store because the "Install" or "Buy" buttons shrink to a very small size (see attached screenshot) and do not respond when pressed. I have re-booted the iPod twice with no affect.
Has anyone else experienced this sympton?Hi. Same issue as you guys. I'm quite new to Apple products, so it has come as a surprise to me that this issue has now been dragging on for well over a week. Nearly 2. Does anyone at Apple HQ take any notice of these message boards?? If so, an official response would be most welcome.

Can not do anything on the app store ( need to update my payment method)
Ok, so i got my ipad about a year ago, and for the first three months, i have been using itunes cards to download stuff from the app store. Soon after this, i realised that since i dont really go out, it could be a bit of an inconvenience for me, so i decided to use my debit card instead. Things were great, until i reslised i had no money left on my account, which apple notifies you of by saying "your payment method has been declined". At first i was confused, but after trying to buy things from amazon and steam and getting the same error, i realised that i had no money. This is where the problem began. The fact that i couldnt buy apps didn't bother me, but what DID bother me was the fact that i couldn't update my apps, download free apps or even install apps i have already payed for without getting that **** error message. This lasted for a little while before i got more money on my account and it worked again. But that isn't the end of the story, about a week ago, i could no longer do anything on the app store without getting that error, EVENTHOUGH i have money on my account. I knew this because right after that error messaged popped up for the trillionth time, i brought a book from amazon with absolutely NO PROBLEMS.
I am so irritated. Fix this apple!The security code is on the back of your credit card.

After update to ios7 I can't use any of my apps who needs internet connection
After I updated my ipad, even if it is connected to the wireless network and the wireless network is working for other devices, I cannot connect to the internet with the ipad. I can't use safari or mail or facebook/twitter nothing works. I've already tried "reset network settings" option on the settings but it didn't work. Does anyone have any idea what to do?
It didn't work but I read a lot in the site and finally I realize that the update changed my DNS I fixed it and it's fine now thanks anyway =)

How can I use most of the features of firefox 5 without changing the appearance of my browser?
I just downloaded the new version of firefox, and everything seems great except for the new layout and the change in general appearance. It is less streamlined and more distracting. I do not like the blocky look of the buttons or the lack of division between sections. Is there a way to keep the changes in the way firefox 5 works without the change in appearance?
If there is not, how can I reload the old version of firefox until one I like better is released?See items 1- 10 in
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]
I would try to stick with the silhouette gray/black buttons, but since it already bothers you at least stick to a theme or style limited to the ones on the toolbars (not the dialogs, which would be too wasteful) see item #48
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/strata-xp/ Strata XP] (Theme (buttons), 13.3KB), replaces silhouette toolbar icons with color. Icons are smaller and perhaps less distinguishable. -
Why can't I use any of the apps except as "trial"?
Subscribed to CC day before yesterday (paid). Can't use any of the apps except as "trial". Spoke with someone in customer service who assured me that things would be working by today. I was told that I don't need to enter a serial number if I've paid for a subscription, and I don't have one anyway. Today applications still won't run. Anyone know what's wrong??

Can I use hotmail with the Mail app?
I looked at the mail app, but didn't see hotmail in there. Can I use it on the touch after upgrading?
I had this question as well. i don't think MSN or Hotmail allows the enabling of pop mail. Therefore it cannot be used unless you subscribe it to a pop mail client. I just switched over to gmail to maike things easier. But would love to find out an answer to this question

I usually have annexes in my outlook tasks, but I can´t see them in the apps I downloaded, is there any app I can use yo do this?
With the iPad connected to the computer, while iTunes is running, click on the iPad name on the left side under devices. Click on the Movies tab and look for Movie Rentals. You want to "Move" the films to the iPad.

I just bought an I phone and was playing Scrabble when an advertisement popped up and I tried to go back to the game and now I can't use any of my apps because whenever I touch one they shake and have an X on them. What did I do?
Relax. Nothing is wrong.
You accidentally tapped-and-held a little too long and you entered what many people call "jiggly mode" - i.e. app reorganization and deletion mode. When in this mode, you can move apps around on your various home screens, create and organize app folders, and delete apps (by tapping the X).
Exit this mode by tapping your Home Button one time. -
iMovie was removed from my macbook pro after I downloaded OS X Yosemite, I had it before and have used it, but now I can only get it through the app store. I can't pay for it so I would really appreciate the help.
Look in your applications folder for the installer - Install OS X Yosemite. Delete it. Then go back to the App Store purchases tab and see if you can download it. You might have to re-index Spotlight.
