Cannot get messages or FaceTime to allow me to open. When it comes to verify it just keeps returning to sign in page...I am certain that right password is being used

Cannot get message or FaceTime to open up....when I enter password and key (sign in ) it goes to verify then ask to pick which email then goes to verify and comes right back to sign in page...I am sure password is entered correctly...

Hello xxtrishy05xx,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To start troubleshooting this issue where you're unable to connect to FaceTime or Messages, I'd like you to please update OS X to 10.10.3.  Once updated, please try to sign in to Messages and FaceTime again.  If the issue persists, please let me know.
How to update your Mac
You should back up your Mac before installation. To do this you can use Time Machine.
Use the Updates pane of the Mac App Store to check for the latest Apple software updates, including this update.
Other software updates available for your computer might appear, which you should install. Some updates might need to be installed before other updates appear.
Don't interrupt the installation process once you've started to update your system.
You might experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications installed, or if you've modified the operating system through other means.

  • When i get a pop up to another link it opens a new window. Can i just keep it in the new window just in another tab?

    Need Tabs all on one page. How do I prevent new windows from popping up when I open a new link? Can I have them automatically load to another tab?

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    I cannot get my iphone 4s to allow the phone to ring. It only vibrates. I have checked everything. Please help......

    What "everything" includes?
    When you select a ringtone what happens? (Try to change from a ringtone to another).
    Did you tried a reset? Hold down Power and Home buttons together until Apple logo appears. Then release and wait to reboot.
    Check again.

    That's because apps are DRM protected & tied to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another iTunes account. You can contact iTunes support, explain the situation, and request they add these apps to the download queue of your new account:

    Try removing the Genius database.  In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.

  • I cannot get my text to advance to the next line when hitting enter???

    I cannot get my text to advance to the next line when hitting enter.
    Any suggestions??

    When I open Keyboard Shortcuts, the name field under Set: is highlighted in dark blue.  I cannot type a name in it.  The button NEW SET remains ungray.  When I click on the button no change happens to allow me to create new set.
    I also noticed that I am unable to scroll down in the InDesign document using scroll off mouse.
    So I have to click and drag to get around not using the up/down arrows when moving the illustrations.
    If I have to enter text I will use storybook.
    If I have to delete text I will use the InDesign document.
    Very limited with the functionality - I was better off using Adobe InDesign 2.0!
    Will need more time to investigate why the keyboard and mouse are not being recognized.  At this time I will have to use the work-arounds to meet deadlines and revisit later.

    I already checked that one.
    I'm baffled, especially since it will usually give you the Invalid user name or password entered message. I'm not getting that. Instead the password field just jiggles back and forth. Very odd.

  • Cannot get CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files

    I have spent hours downloading a variety of stuff and still cannot get  CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files. I  have downloaded the Camera Raw 4.6 plugin. Photoshop acknowledges that  is the version installed. But it won't recognize the .CR2 file type.  When I say show me all files, the files show up in the open file dialog,  and the thumbnails look right, but when I open the file it is munged. I  also installed the DNG Converter, which also does not recognize the  .CR2 files.
    Has anyone figured this out yet? It has been almost a year. I don't want to upgrade to CS4 or 5 or buy Lightroom.

    The Adobe DNG Converter 6.2 will open your files, if you have an uncorrupted download and use it properly.  No doubt about that.
    Once you launch it, be sure to target a folder containing raw files, not the raw files themselves.  At least on the Mac, the DNG Converter works on folders, not on individual files.
    Alternatively, you can try dragging and dropping the individual raw files onto the DNG Converter icon.
    Some routine maintenance may be overdue on your Mac, such as Repairing Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, running Onyx or Cocktail, etc.

  • I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    If you are trying to "extend" using wireless only, you may not be aware that Apple designed the "extend" feature as a proprietary setting to only work with other Apple routers.
    It is extremely unlikely that this will work with a Cisco router.
    If your plans call for connecting the AirPort Express to the Cisco router using a wired Ethernet connection, it should be possible to configure the Express that way.

  • I cannot get my Windows live hotmail acct. to access my email. Windows support suggests I optimize my browzer, but don't know how to do that

    I cannot get my Windows live hotmail acct. to access my email. Windows support suggests I optimize my browzer, but don't know how to do that. I never had a problem before and have always used Mozilla Firefox as my browser. The Firefox4 also looks different since I changed it. No Google bar in the center, or the Mozilla logo.

    You can do a test if it works in Private Browsing mode. In PB mode the disk cache isn't used and also the currently saved cookies are not available.
    You can enter Private Browsing mode if you select:
    * Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    *Check-mark: [X] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
    Close the Options window and open the Hotmail log in page.
    You can remove the check-mark ([ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode") to leave PB mode.
    If that works the it is possible that there is problem with the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    You can rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> and <b>cookies.txt</b>, if they exist, in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

    How do I set up a speed dial on my iPhone 4s?  I am used to the bberry where I just keep my finger on a number in order to dial. This is very useful in the car.  How do I get the same effect on iPhone?

    I found a post from Alope that told me exactly how to fix it.
    Go to:
    Settings   - General   - Restrictions    -    put your pass code in   -     Facetime      -  turn the switch to ON
    Worked perfectly to stop the message that said, Not authorized to do that!

  • Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

    Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
    3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    5. Reset the System Management Controller.
    6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

  • Does anyone know how to get Adobe to stop charging for a subscription that is no longer being used?

    Does anyone know how to get Adobe to stop charging for a subscription that is no longer being used?

    For full details on cancelling a membership and subscription see the following page:
    Cancel your membership or subscription | Creative Cloud
    Depending on where you are in your subscription cycle / membership and the type of membership
    If you have an individual membership, and opted for the annual membership (lower monthly fee). If you are cancelling in the middle of your membership, then you would be billed 50% of what's left of your membership for the remainder of the year, basically that would then in $$s become more like having taken out a month-by-month membership (higher monthly membership fee).
    If you are in the last month of your annual membership or your are on a month-by-month membership, you can log into your creative cloud account, cancel the plan yourself (no additional charges apply), by logging in with your Adobe ID and password, click your name in top left of screen and click on Manage Account.
