Cannot synchronise with E61i - tried all the tricks posted on web
I just got my second Nokia E61i but when I try to synchronise it with my contacts and iCal via Bluetooth I get an error message 'Device is not available or synchronization was cancelled. Close dialogs and applications on the phone and try again". The date and time are set correctly on the phone, I've tried removing the device from iSync and re-adding it, switching the phone off and back on again and then finally re-setting the device on iSync only to receive the same error message. My previous e61i worked perfectly but for some reason I cannot get the new handset to sync. Any ideas? Any help with this would be much appreciated. Thanks!
After getting the second E61i, did you completely remove the first one from both iSync and the Bluetooth system preferences pane, then setup the new phone from scratch?
If not, the Bluetooth system software probably thinks it is still trying to talk to the old phone.

Been trying to restore Ipod touch for days after updating Itunes. Error code #9. Stuck on restore screen. Tried all the solutions posted. Tried on 2 computers, Vista + XP. No device shown on computer. Thanks Apple! Didn't have this problem before update. How about rolling back your update?
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software. -

Facetime Option Gone, tried all the tricks...
I've searched the discussion boards everywhere and tried all the tips, but I can't get the facetime option button back for any of my contacts. I've used FT for over a year, but just vanished one day.
I've tried: soft reset, hard reset, phone restore, update software, cycle FT option in settings on/off, cycled wifi on/off in combo with FT option. Nothing seems to work.
I'm also just on a wifi network in Afghanistan, no cell coverage, but like I said I've used the iphone here and my buddy is using his right now. The FT option in the phone settings says "Waiting for activation..." but I don't know why/how to fix it if that is the problem. Desperate to talk to family so any help would be greatly appreciated.
DaveHi Dave,
I just had this very same problem but after research have found out why;
Go to setting> phone> faceTime/ turn it ON.
If this doesn't work, if restriction is enabled on your device then go to setting> general> restrictions> enter restriction code> faceTime/ set it on. I hope this helps!

My ipad 3 suddenly stopped charging last week. I've tried different adapters, to no avail. I didn't drop it or spill anything on it. I don't have tons of apps, so plenty of memory. My husband took it to the Apple store for me and they tried charging it too even though I knew that wasn't the problem and then said it wasn't working (no kidding) and then told him it would be $300 to replace. Seeing as I've only had it for a year and a half and it cost more than twice that to begin with, I'm a little ticked that it stops charging, a problem I know is very common according the all the message boards and they want to charge me $300. I've always heard that Apple was so good to it's customers, but my iphone has been a nightmare, and now my ipad won't charge. Also, I've tried the reset options I've read about and none worked. Sorry, just really upset. I thought I was paying all this money for better quality and now I feel foolish for having done so. Anybody with any ideas I, or the genius at Apple haven't thought of? Help is appreciated. Thanks.
May be some help on one of these links.
Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

G5 Won't start up.. I've tried all the tricks I know.
OK.. so the other day I restart my G5 Tower because it was a little sluggish.. haven't restarted in a while so I re-booted ... the grey apple screen comes up.. then the Starting mac osx progress bar loads all the way to the end.. then just hangs... if I left it there for hours it would still be there.. I have tried everything I know and could find on these boards as well as osx help articles.. here is what I have done.
first:
started up from install cd.. tried to repair volume couldn't complete the repair. apparently there are like 40 overlapping files somehow.
second:
ran diskwarrior 3.0.3 got all the way through the process to where it says it is repairing overlapping files then suddenly there is an error and it can't continue.. Did this three times
third:
tried to boot in safe mode.. spinning gear then goes to starting mac osx progress bar and same story .. hangs for eternity.. bar is still moving but I can't get past this screen.
fourth:
booted in single user mode ran fsck 4 times until it said nothing appears to be wrong....
re-booted and same thing happens Starting mac osx screen comes up progress bar loads til the end and never goes any further.
fifth:
Booted from OSX install cd tried to archive and install OS... wouldn't even begin to do this just said there is an error and to try again... Tried this twice.
sixth:
tried booting in target disk mode hoping I could just copy a few essential files I hadn't recently backed up with the intention of doing an erase and install of the whole computer.. couldn't get my laptop to see the G5 HD on the desktop.. opened disk utility on the laptop and it shows up but won't enable any repair options.
So at this point I am at a serious loss. It appears I have a serious problem with something like 40 overlapping files that are causing all this misery but I can't get to the files to delete them.. and nothing I run can repair them
at this point I just want to get in to the HD anyway I can to backup so I can do an erase and install with Leopard. Anyone have any input out there that might be able to help?
PS: I have just enough knowledge of using the terminal to make me a danger to myself.. so if any input you have comes in the form of 500 command lines then please either spell it out in detail so I know exactly what to type and when.. or just please act as though you don't see me flailing my arms on this rapidly sinking ship.Sounds like possib;y putting the HD in an external Firewire case, (possibly Target mode if that still works), then If DiskWarrior can't fix it, you might try Data Rescue II...

My camera app on my iPhone 4 is not working. The app will open but the shutter will not open and I am unable to open the options, etc. I have tried closing all apps, closed and reopened my camera app, shut the phone off, did a hard stop and the camera still will not work. Any help ?
Hard reset. Hold the top lock button & Home Screen button til you see the White apple. Try camera afterwards.

The newest release of Java (7.0.250) simply will not run on Firefox 22. I have tried all the "fixes" posted on the Mozilla site -- enabled in both the browser and the Java control panel. The new release of Java works just fine in IE and Chrome.
Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you. -
After updating to ios 8 on my iphone 4s, all my music from iphone disappered. I tried all the suggestions, but I cant see music folder in the settings-general at all. I signed out of icloud as well, but still cannot sync with itune on my macbookpro. Can any one help?
Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

As stated no matter how hard i try i CANNOT get apps to appear in my sidebar library menu so i can update them through itunes.Has only happened since last update of itunes .Really wish i hadn't updated as i have never had an issue b4.Spent most of day on fone to apple yesterday as the update created an issue that meant i could not sync at all.Anyway thanks to 'james' in arizona we sorted the first piece of trouble the update created .(sortof).
Not sure why it has to be messed with.Well i spose it is progress!!!
I've looked at lots of posts re this and tried all the suggestions but just cannot get the magic 'apps' category to appear in my sidebar in itunes???
One suggestion was that the apps if clicked on would have an 'update ' button but all i can do is delete them
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
(running osx 10.7.5 on MBP -slightly tricky cos i also run windows in a 'bootcamped' partition.Mind u itunes etc is in mac partition and has been working fine for the last 10 years!!!!!!!!!)I'm going to assume that you use only one Apple ID so the two things that I can think of are to quite all processes and restart all devices and then try to sync those apps again. Quit iTunes, restart your computer and the iPad and then try to sync the apps again.
The other thing would be to try to reset your iTunes account by signing in and out of the account on the iPad. Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad and then sign in to your account and try again. -
Firefox cannot load ANY websites, but IE can, even after I tried all the ideas in the current articles on this topic as of March 10, 2011!
One day it was fine, and the next day it stopped working! I have tried everything suggested under the topic "Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can."You should e able to install FlashPlayer separately on IE and Firefox. So you may use Flash 11.3 on IE and 11.2 or 10.3 on Firefox.
Work from the administrator account. First of all sort out Firefox, use the Adobe uninstaller to uninstall Flash before reinstalling 11.2 Afterwards check that IE is ok, the Uninstaller may have changed that so you may need to reinstall Flash on IE.
* see instructions in [[flash 11.3 crashes]]
You are apparently using an outdated Firefox 8. That is not secure you should update to the latest Release Firefox 13 (or within a day or so Firefox 14)
You may also encounter problems relating to use of RealPlayer software and that software may affect use of FlashPlayer 11.3
* see also [[Fix problems with RealPlayer add-ons]]
* a user ''blacksabath710'' recently posted a workaround in [/questions/931055] suggesting use of free software from http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/
P.S.
When you finish set Firefox's FlashPlayer not to upgrade, and until this issue is resolved do not follow suggestions from Adobe, or Plugincheck etc. to upgrade Flash.
Use this test page form Adobe in each browser and account to check Flash is working ok
* http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
The test page will display version information and error messages or a Flash animation to prove flash is working. -
After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Please helpOh, and I checked here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939 and you are correct!
