Cant Buy January Update - a FIX that works

Wow - so many threads about the infuriating January Update Buy button not appearing. Here is a solution that WORKS - thanks to Mr Alex Brophy, my new hero!:
Go directly to the page that allows you to buy by clicking this url:
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=271872604&s=14 3441
Click the Buy button, and agree to the terms (twice, it seems!) Now, the first time I did this, nothing happened, so I tried again- and it worked. Purchase history confirms only one $20 charge was made.
Try it, everyone, it let me install the update with no restores or resets or anything,and the sync happened automatically once the purchase went through. Yahoo!
(Now all I need to make me happy is 10.5.2 so Leopard can also work.)

I live in a country which does not have iTunes Store but I can purchase a voucher from eBay. However according to Q&A from Apple:-
"Gift certificates and gift cards purchased on the iTunes Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased. Gift certificates purchased in the United States may only be redeemed by residents of the United States."
Not only that, those who have access to iTunes Store are making unreasonable profits from selling those vouchers. A US$15 iTunes Store voucher is sold for $18.
Can anyone CONFIRM 100% that the voucher I purchase from eBay actually can work? I doubt because before I can redeem the voucher from iTunes Store, I have to register first. And to register, I need a credit card which has a billing address in the US or a country which already has iTunes Store.

Cant sync january update

I had the january update installed and it worked great. I reset my ipod and my laptop. My Apple store account says i have purchased it but it will not sync onto my ipod touch. How do i get the iphone apps on the ipod after paying for the update?

There was a file on your computer as well as an electronic "receipt" file. Not an actual receipt like you are sent from iTunes when you buy a song. When you reformatted your laptop, both those files were deleted. Until about the time of the WWDC, Apple was allowing folks to redownload. Some of us (me probably loudest of all) were concerned that this wasn't the best method, especially in light of the fact that Apple has long had a policy written into the iTunes Terms of Use of one download per purchase.
Unfortunately at this point, there is no way to redownload as Apple has removed the file from iTunes. On the day the new upgrade becomes available, I would suggest contacting Apple and explaining what happened. At that point, the receipt you were emailed for the purchase and the fact that your account shows as having purchased it should go a long way.
Now, that said... it has been brought up that the 2.0 update may solve all your problems. Alan Sampson is good with the links to all the official updates. If you search his posts, you will see what I mean. That the basic functionality of the 1.1.4 software should be included in 2.0 seems a logical conclusion. If the apps are not. then it's time to contact Apple. If they are, and you were planning on upgrading anyhow, then all will be well.

I have Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 ,I want to buy the updated operating system that puts iMessage and Facetime on my Macbook Pro. What should I search for, and then purchase, in the App Store?

FaceTime can run in the version of OS X that you currently have. To get Messageyou need Mountain Lion. The protocol used by Messages is iMeassage.
The question is does your MBP meet the specs for Mountain Lion.

MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed

IOS 6 Wi-Fi fix that worked for me.

I just downloaded IOS 6 and my Wi-fi was not working correctly, everytime I tried to connect to Wi-Fi it took my to an apple page and never loaded wi-fi up. Here's what I did to fix it. Click on settings>Wi-Fi>Click blue arrow next to network trying to connect too>change auto-connect to on>scroll down and change HTTP Proxy to Auto.
That worked for me to connect to Wi-Fi. Hope this helps everyone, I know there's a lot of frustration out there

Did I buy january update?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but...
I believe that I bought the january update. I entered my e-mail and password, signed the agreements but I didn't see any download on iTunes, so I'm not sure if I actually bought the software or not. Could someone tell me how I could verify if I actually paid the money or not?
Thanks in advance.

go to the itunes store on your pc, in the upper right hand corner of the main screen click on your account name. Click the view account button, and then goto purchase history. If you did pay for the upgrade it should be listed at the top of the screen. If you did make sure you have updated itunes to 7.6, and have downloaded and installed the 1.1.3 update.

Buying an external hard drive that works on both!

I am looking to buy and external hard drive that can be accessed by my pc and mac book pro. Using mac drive or the like is not an option. This is because I am looking to go over to a mac full time. At we have a windows network. The techies won't install mac drive, so I need one that works on both.
Do they exist?
I had bought a fujitsu. Formatted it on the macbook and doesn't work on the school network. Is there anything I can do with that so it can be accessed by both?

I use Mac OS X (10.6) as my primary OS with Windows 7 under Boot Camp for games. Pretty much any USB drive will do, I have WD Elements 500GB 3.5in one partitioned approximately 300/200 between HFS (the partition scheme for Mac OS) and NTFS. This allows me to do my Time Machine backups and still have a usable amount of extra storage for windows. Under Snow Leopard I can read both partitions from windows, no problem, but beware, in my experience, Mac OS won't see the windows partition on the external drive if you're using one of the partitions for Time Machine.
Hope this helps,

IWeb CPU usage, fix that worked for me

On my MacBook Pro having iWeb open and idling with my relatively simple site would cause my CPU usage to hover between 35% and 50%. Pretty disconcerting since I have a 2.66 i7 model and 8 gigs of RAM. Some pages on my blog have a decent amount of text and pictures and typing became a one letter at a time event since the program would just drag. Very annoying.
I did a lot of searching and finally found something today that worked for my situation. Since it took a bunch of time to locate a solution I figured I'd share it.
My problem ended up being a font issue. I opened up Font Book and saw several errors with duplicate fonts. Since there were a few I just did a select all and then selected resolve duplicates from the menu. To be safe I rebooted but that may not have been necessary.
Now iWeb idles between 5% and 10% which is much more reasonable. Not to mention now I can work on my site and have my battery last longer than an hour and a half!
Anyway, I hope this helps someone.

If doing so improved the situation, this confirms that one of Safari's database files has become corrupt and is causing the crashing, and this shows up in your crash log as Thread 3 having crashed.
The blacklists from Google’s Safe Browsing Initiative (where Safari checks for 'fraudulent websites') are contained in a database cache file called SafeBrowsing.db - the file was created when you first launched Safari 3.2, and if you have the browser open, the file is modified approximately every 30 minutes.
As an alternative to turning off 'Warn when visiting a fraudulent website', which will lose you that important security feature, you should delete that database file, (but first close Safari):
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari (this is a folder)/SafeBrowsing.db
It will be recreated next time you open Safari, and will then start again collecting details of dodgy websites.

HTC Incredible reboot fix that works and does NOT require hard reset

Like many of you unfortunate souls out there I have had my HTC Incredible go into a rebooting loop over the last month or so. The following recounts some observations and and a solution which appears to work.
First off, my son and I both have the same phone and software versions and apps. He does NOT get email on his phone because he does not want to. I do. His phone has NEVER rebooted. Mine has done so numerous times. My business partner also has the identical phone and software version, lives within 200 yards of me, and uses the email and has had numerous reboots and has gotten them even sooner than I saw them at first. My partner and I have set up email attachments and downloads to go to the SD card. So much for background info. Here is what I did to fix the problem followed by some other observations:
Open up the case of the phone and remove the battery
Remove the SD card from the phone.
Put it into an adapter that allows you to access files directly on your computer. In my case this was a Windows PC running Windows 7.
Mount the SD card in your computer and open up the browser to see the files on the SD card.
Look for a folder called ".Mail"
If your phone is like mine you will see hundreds of files, some of zero length. This was even though I had deleted most of the emails I received on my phone.
Proceed to directly delete any of the zero length files. For that matter, you may have other files like jpg's laying around of uncertain origin. I got rid of these and other strange files that seemed attached to no documents at all.
Remove the SD card and reinsert into your phone. Put the battery back in and the cover on then restart the phone. Your phone should run properly and you should not see any negative consequences from the files you deleted previously.
Some other observations relevant to this solution that bolsters my theory that this problem has something to do with the email application and also a problem with file system corruption on the SD card as a consequence of it.
I had previously seen the email application put some mail from a different account I was using into my main account. The files could not be deleted and even trying to do so would cause the mail app to force close.
My son has never seen the problem despite being in the same environment with the same phone and software. Relevant difference to me was that he was NOT using email and I was.
The email app clearly has bugs if it is leaving behind hundreds of files even if you delete the emails. Why? As a software engineer my first instinct would be to look to see if the file system locks were properly synchronized when the email app is writing to the flash file system. I am not conversant in Android OS programming nor the app code itself so this is speculative on my part. I would also look for a timeout on reboots if file system enumerations take too long. Lots of files on a system might trigger a premature timeout and reboot. Once again, this is speculative on my part but I sure wish I had the code to debug this myself.
These issues seem to coincide with a rapid rise in network traffic most likely because of the iPad 2/iPhone support by Verizon. I wonder if this additional traffic load on the network is opening up timing holes in the software because of backoff and retry intervals for certain apps. Once again I suspect the email app especially because it is vulnerable to network traffic issues as it tries to get email account updates.
I could be wrong about my theory as to why the problem is happening. My solution seems to work. As far as pulling the battery and putting it near your AC in the car, that did NOT work for me at all. Leaving the phone out of its protective case also had no effect. Only screwing with the files on the SD card mattered.
I hope this helps.

This problem has been seen for MONTHS now by people besides myself. My business partner is about to put a bullet in his phone because this has been happening for far longer than mine. I have little confidence in a fix anytime soon because this problem has been persistent for some time and there is a lot of denial in the field by Verizon. Verizon has to depend on HTC and Google besides themselves for fixes. How much would you like to wager on how this business relationship is working out? The first step in any solution is for a company to take some responsibility for it and so far no company has.

A fix that works for your battery drain with iOS 8.2

After I updated my iPhone 4s to the new iOS 8.2 I found my battery life had become terrible. I could barely make it through an 8 hour day at work before my phone would die. It was so bad that I had to get myself a second charger to plug it in during the day. Even then, if I used the phone at all, it would still lose its charge while plugged in.
Before this update, my phone would easily last through the day and would not need to be plugged in before I went to bed. Even at midnight when I'd go to rest for the night, my phone was never below 70% and most times it would still be well above 80% but not so with iOS 8.2 So here is a fix I found on another forum somewhere. I was desperate so I tried it and low and behold, it worked great.
Here goes:
Let your phone die completely until it turns off by itself
Plug it in your charger until it comes back on again (around 6% for mine)
Turn it back off using the top button and the slider on the phone
Leave it plugged in for 2 to 3 hours or until you figure it would have reached 100%
Unplug the phone and turn it on
Now reboot your device (turn it off and back on again)
That's it. This fixed it for me and for many on the forum where this was posted. My battery life is back to what it was before my update to iOS 8.2. I have plenty of battery life left when I get home after work.
Try it and pass it on....it works.

Use the Settings app to determine what apps or processes are using your battery the most. Once you know what is causing the battery drain you can take steps to reduce it.
Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage
Wait a few seconds for the device to bring up the list of apps with their battery usage.

Fix that works for my itunes/my-computer not recognizing 5G 60GB Ipod

Hi:
For me this fixed all problems with my own PC at work (when others in building worked fine). Turns out I had some networked drives and did not realize there was a conflict even.

It is from the following help area on apple:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
Strange iPod behavior when Windows confuses iPod with network drive
If the drive letter after iPod ("E" in most cases) is mapped to a network drive, both Windows Explorer and iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.
Symptom
One or more of the following occurs:
* iPod does not show up in iTunes or as disk in Windows Explorer.
* iPod does not show up as disk in Windows Explorer (even though disk mode is enabled on the iPod).
* iTunes and Windows Explorer report the wrong amount of available space on iPod.
* No songs appear on the iPod after an apparently successful update from iTunes.
* Music copied to mapped network drive instead of iPod.
Products affected
* iTunes for Windows
* iPod (all models)
* Microsoft Windows 2000
* Microsoft Windows XP
Solution
This issue is documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base document 297694, "New Drive or Mapped Network Drive Not Available in Windows Explorer".
Changing the drive letter of your network volume should resolve the issue. If you are unable to change the drive letter of the network volume because your programs depend on a specific drive letter, then you can use the following steps to change the drive letter of your iPod instead.
1. Open the Control Panel.
2. Double click on Administrative Tools. Note: If you don't see Administrative Tools, look at the left column in Control Panel for a link that says, "Switch to Classic View," and click it.
3. Double click on Computer Management.
4. In the left column, click on Disk Management.
5. Locate the iPod and right click on it, then click Change Drive Letter and Paths.
6. Click the Change button.
7. Use the drop-down menu to select a new drive letter. Note: Make sure to choose a new drive letter that is not already assigned to a network drive. The drop-down menu will display all available letters that are not assigned to a physical drive. Drive letters that are assigned to a network volume will still be listed here. It is also a good idea to assign a drive letter other than a, b, c, or d, as these letters are usually reserved for other system drives.
8. Click OK.
9. Click Yes on the confirmation dialog.

Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software? If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

IPhoto fix that worked for me (Coregraphics & Adobe Color Profiles issues)

Ok, I posted a few days back in reference to getting help with my iPhoto. I do apologize on the fact this is quite the long post but maybe it will be easy to understand for those who are like me and not all that computer literate. I searched all the discussions and used all the different advice from different people but had no luck. I was able to FINALLY get iPhoto up and running again last night after doing just a few simple things. Please note that this may not work for everyone. Also please note that I AM NOT an expert in dealing with computers and working with computers. It's just that my ADD kicks in when something needs fixing and I won't stop till its finished. Below are a few lines from the crash report that I was getting each time I attempted to open iPhoto from my Macbook Pro Late 2011 running 10.8.3.

-Run and attempt to repair any Color Profiles that may need to be fixed. There were 4 that could not be fixed for me. Locate these profiles and move them to your desktop (Note: I was still able to open and use all applications in my Adobe CS6 Master Collection after moving these profiles but you may want to check just to be sure if you are using Adobe).
-Even though I had done this many times, run the Disk Utility App in your Utilities Profile and Verify and Repair any permission needed (For me, I had none at this time that needed to be repaired).
-Next, I did an Apple Hardware Test. For me and the model Macbook Pro I am using, I had to restart my computer and when the screen went black for me at restart about the time the start up sound is about to come on, I pressed ALT-D. On some models you just have to press D. I did disconnect everything prior to doing this except the power cord and the Internet. I did a full AHT test that took about an hour or so. If you get an error code, be sure and right it down whereas your issue may be something different than mine and this will not apply to you. There were no problems from the test and then restarted the computer.
-At restart I decided to get into the OS X Recovery by pressing Command-R to either start from scratch or find some other way to fix the issue because I was tired of racking my brain on this and was about to throw the computer in to the wall.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 For help or questions on the OS X Recovery Process
-Once in the OS X Recovery from the Mac OS X Utilities Pane, I selected reinstall and then I selected my current Hard Drive. Luckily by doing this (not that I was aware or anything, but none of my files or folders were deleted and it only reinstalled Mountain Lion and whatever else it needed)
-This process took about an hour and once finished, I restarted my computer
-I logged back in to my account but did not attempt iPhoto at this time. Instead I immediately checked to make sure that 10.8.3 was what was reinstalled back on my Mac. I then checked for Software Updates which I had a few and installed these updates.
-I then went back to the Disk Utilities App from my Utilities folder and Verified the Disk and Disk Permission. To my surprise, many of the files that were in the iPhoto crash thread (posted above) were now showing up as needing to be repaired. I repaired what needed to be repaired.
-I verified all my Color Profiles to make sure none were showing up again (which there were none that needed to be repaired)
-I did a check check of some Adobe CS6 Apps just to verify they were opening and working correctly
-I restarted my Mac (Once again) and logged back in. I opened up iPhoto and everything worked and is working PERFECTLY. I then re-connected my printers and my Time Machine and performed a back up before importing photos back in to iPhoto. I DO WISH NOW THOUGH THAT I HADN'T DELETED AND RE-INSTALLED IPHOTO but it is nice being able to start over and organize iPhoto a little better than before.
I am sorry this is such a long post but for people like me who are not professionals in the computer department, sometimes it's good to "dumb" things done so that us "average joes" can understand a little better. Hopefully this will work for those who are having issues like mine. Thanks for all the help from everyone from my previous posts.

Tom:
To help prevent loss like you experienced see the tip at the end of my signature.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

A FINAL FIX
Posted: Oct 16, 2006 7:45 AM in response to: Tagliente Reply Email
After much arguing on the phone with apple support, I got a straight answer. The problems are due to old iTunes software and virus protection.
1) Uninstall iTunes, Apple Update, and Quicktime using the 'Add/Remove' software option in the control panel.
2) Open your program files folder (Found in My Computer in the C: drive)
3) Delete any folders that may be left such as iTunes, ipod, Apple Updater, Quicktime)
4) Download the iTunes 7 install package from the apple website (http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/). Be sure to save the file to your desktop.
5) Exit your web browser
6) Turn off all virus protection software. This includes firewalls, spyware protection systemguards, etc. The “how” to do this depends on your virus software. For example, with McAfee open the Security Center and click Computer and Files. Click configure. The new window has the options to turn things off. Turn everything off.
7) Install iTunes 7 (includes Quicktime [needed for iTunes])
8) Restart
9) Turn virus protection and firewalls back on
10) Plug in iPod and you’re golden!
This worked for me and I no longer get any messages about iPod in recovery mode or unable to update iPod.
Good luck.
Windows XP
By the way, I think I clearly stated in my post that when trying to update my nano from version 1.2 to 1.3 (after being prompted to do so from launching itunes 7.0.1.8) it will not perform the suggested update offering up a cryptic message about the files on my ipod being in use by another program.

Safari fix that worked for us after persistent crashes

In trying to back up all files on our G4 Powerbook in case our hard drive was crashing (we had tried fixing permissions, reinstalling Safari after using Pacifist to take it out of one of the software updates, resetting Safari, boosting Safari's database storage cache, and then were having Google Sketchup starting to crash as well) we got this message during the backup - 'Unable to read the file cookies.plist'. Since I'd tried resetting Safari I hadn't thought this file might be the corrupted one. I went to Library/Cookies and threw the file away and now everything's fine - Safari and Sketchup are both working. Good luck!

If doing so improved the situation, this confirms that one of Safari's database files has become corrupt and is causing the crashing, and this shows up in your crash log as Thread 3 having crashed.
The blacklists from Google’s Safe Browsing Initiative (where Safari checks for 'fraudulent websites') are contained in a database cache file called SafeBrowsing.db - the file was created when you first launched Safari 3.2, and if you have the browser open, the file is modified approximately every 30 minutes.
As an alternative to turning off 'Warn when visiting a fraudulent website', which will lose you that important security feature, you should delete that database file, (but first close Safari):
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari (this is a folder)/SafeBrowsing.db
It will be recreated next time you open Safari, and will then start again collecting details of dodgy websites.

IE7 Flash9 install fix that worked!

I've tried nearly every solution mentioned all over adobe, ms
and elsewhere to no avail.
I must have uninstalled and reinstalled, deleting folders,
reg fixes, etc, etc a hundred times.
Another user had linked to this tech article in another post
(sorry lost the post), thought I'ld put it up top.
It's the only thing that allowed IE7 to install Flash9
successfully. Thanks other user!

p.s. I work on alot of pcs, I have only seen this
installation problem on machines
that previously had some version of Flash and updated to IE7.
Virgin builds of fully
updated XP with IE7 seem to install Flash 9 just fine.
just sayin ;)

I live in a country which does not have iTunes Store but I can purchase a voucher from eBay. However according to Q&A from Apple:-
"Gift certificates and gift cards purchased on the iTunes Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased. Gift certificates purchased in the United States may only be redeemed by residents of the United States."
Not only that, those who have access to iTunes Store are making unreasonable profits from selling those vouchers. A US$15 iTunes Store voucher is sold for $18.
Can anyone CONFIRM 100% that the voucher I purchase from eBay actually can work? I doubt because before I can redeem the voucher from iTunes Store, I have to register first. And to register, I need a credit card which has a billing address in the US or a country which already has iTunes Store.
