Change from Hidden Network to one that shows?
How do I change my "hidden network" settings? I hid my wifi network and now I can't find a way to make it show. I have a friend with a pc who wants to connect to my network when he's here but my network is hidden and doesn't show up on his laptop. How do I return it to the original setting when my network shows (or how do I tell a PC user how to log onto a hidden network?) He doesn't seem to have an option to enter the name and password of any network. Just those that are not hidden are available to him and we can't access those as they are locked. Thanks.
You can "unhide" the AirPort Express Base Station's (AX) wireless network via the AirPort Utility.
(ref: AirPort Utility > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless > Wireless Options > Create a closed network (uncheck))

I do not have an email from Apple for a charge that shows up on my credit card statement. I also do not see a charge in my history for this amount. How can I dispute the charge?
If nothing shows on the purchase history on your account, and you only have the one iTunes account that the card has been linked to and it's not a temporary store holding charge (you haven't changed your card details on your account ?), then you can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.
But if nothing shows on your purchase history then you should also consider contacting your card issuer. -
why cant i open all my bookmarks in a new tab? only the ones visible above me, not the ones that show up when i click in the arrow to the upper right?
Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons -

is there any diffrence in quality between apple products that is buy from united states or one that i buy from Emirate?
Not from this Forum .This is a User to User technical support Forum .There is no relevant Apple presence here
All iOS devices are made at the same factories in China for world wide distribution .
The only difference is that some Middle East governments forbid the shipping of devices with Facetime and Apple are required to remove it from shipments to certain Countries -
I can no longer update my apps on my IPhone 4 because I have a new e-mail account. When I try to update with my Apple ID the e-mail that shows up on the screen is my old e-mail address and since I once shared that with another person I no longer know the Apple ID for that particular e-mail.
How do I change the old e-mail address and keep it from showing up on my apps update screen? I have deleted the old e-mail account from my phone.

Need to change default map on iphone. The default maps app is dangerous - it wanted to take me down pedestrian areas and through no entries whilst trying to navigate in Leicester. It needs to be removed from my phone as it is a hazard. I clicked on a link in an email and the maps app was opened and so I used it to navigate. Big mistake. This app is a serious hazard!
I don't really want to get into a long debate here, but just to put in some background info. I travel a lot in the uk and have done for many years. For the last couple of years I have used either Nav free or waze as sat nav maps on my iphone. Whilst there has been some errors, they have been useable - and of course you have to use your common sense whilst using them.
On this occasion someone emailed an address to me in Leicester. I wanted to drive from on point in Leicester to this address that has been emailed to me. I clicked on the address in the email and it defaulted to the apple maps and plotted a route. It was about 1 mile away and told me it would take about 8 mins.
This was the worse journey I have experienced with a 'sat nav' - it tried to take me through 2 pedestrian areas and 1 no entry in that short journey. Clearly I didn't go I. The pedestrian areas or turn into the one way. However, the apple. Aps persisted to try and make me take these route, and I. The process kept urging me to take a u turn where it was clearly sign posted that it was illegal to do so.
In the end, I pulled over and switched to Waze - it directed me straight to my destination without any errors.
The point is, I am not talking about a mistake in the middle of no where. This is a major city in the UK - and fairly central ie near the city centre.
Generally I love Apple products and don't knock them as a company.
The original question was genuine- can I change the default mapping app so that I don't end up using the apple maps app again. It was a disaster like nothing I have seen before.
I now know that the answer is no.
Apple clearly need to sort this out. -
How do I change my Mail photo id tag that shows up in other mac users mail?
I looked around for what I thought was the obvious places like system preferences in Mail and accounts. I do not have a login setting to my mac since I'm the only one using it so I have no log in photo. The pic that is up is of me when I first got my mac and I'd like to update it. Where can I edit that outgoing photo of me which is ugly that shows up in emails I send to mac users?! Thanks, Matt
Mail isn't sending the photo. The Address Book photos are put on incoming mail that matches a user in the Address Book. You need to retouch your photo in the other users' Address Books.
It is possible other users could be getting your picture from a server. From Address Book's Help:
"A picture can appear in a contact’s card even though you haven’t added a picture yourself. If a picture whose filename matches the contact’s email address and whose file extension is .tiff (such as [email protected]) is located on your computer in a folder named Library/Images/People, or is located on a computer or server you’re connected to in a /Library/Images/People folder, the picture will automatically appear in Address Book, Mail, iChat and other applications where the contact’s email address is used." -
I'm totally new to iphone/ipod. I need help with the following:
1) How do I get rid of a folder of photos that showed up on my daughter's ipod touch when she received some songs from her aunt's itunes? After she got some songs from that itunes a folder of pictures showed up with no delete option. Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?
2) Also, my daughter uses same itunes as myself, how do I make sure any pics I have on my iphone & icloud (itunes) don't show up on her ipod? I shut off my photostream so perhaps this is the solution. But I noticed that a message I sent from her ipod to my sister (an iphone user) later showed up on my iphone (as if I had sent it from my iphone)! That was really odd. I'd like to keep our itunes account together simply so I can monitor her downloads, etc so I don't want to open up her own itunes to avoid automatic syncing.
I only want to share music between our devices. I don't want her pics nor my pics to go to icloud/itunes.
Thank you!1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

Logged into itunes account and had balance of $25.00. Purchased one tv show for $2.99 and now shows balance of $15.86. How can I get this issue corrected?
Go to your Purchase History and review your purchases to make sure that you should indeed have the balance left you think you should. iTunes doesn't always refresh the balance it shows, so it's possible you spent the money and it just wasn't being reflected in the display. This display error can usually be corrected by logging out of the iTunes Store and then back in.
If you confirm that you should have a higher balance left but the iTunes Store isn't showing it correctly, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

How to I change an email back to one that was previously used.
I had an iTunes account that was hacked several years ago. How do I change my iTunes ID back to that email since that is my primary email and I just got an iPhone?
Just make her a new AppleID - https://appleid.apple.com
On her device, log out of iMessage with your AppleID, then log back in with her new AppleID. For iCloud, first go into the iCloud account settings and disable find my iPhone, then delete the iCloud account. Now add a new iCloud account using her new AppleID.
You both can continue to use the same AppleID in the iTunes and App stores if you wish to share purchases. If not, just scroll to the bottom of the feature page in the store, log out with your AppleID and log back in with her AppleID (she will need your AppleID and password to update anything purchased with your AppleID though). -
Blank page showing when changing from two column to one column pages
This is the scenario:
Document with two master pages - Page1 has two content areas - left column and right column, Page 2 has one content area the full page width named 'FullPage'
One page set named PageSetOne - with multiple subforms, each with Pagination setting of Following Previous and Continue filling parent.
Second page set named PageSetTwo - this has a single subform with Pagination setting of place on Page2. The child subform has itself a subform with Pagination setting of Place in Content Area 'FullPage'.
This page set is initially set to be Hidden.
Third page set named PageSetThree - this has a single subform with Pagination setting of place in Page 1 and a child subform with Pagination setting of Following Previous.
[Obviously I am simplifying names and content here].
The problem is this: when in design mode, there is a blank page showing at the end of the document whenever there are sufficient subforms in PageSetOne such that subforms are displayed in the right hand column.
When subforms are removed so that nothing is showing in the right hand column then the blank page goes away.
I have put a marker subform immediately after the last subform in PageSetThree and can see that the blank page is showing after this.
Also, the following problem:
When in preview mode, the extra blank page at the end does not display (which is good)
BUT if the hidden PageSetTwo is made to be visible AND there is content showing in the right hand column prior to it,
THEN a blank page is displayed just before the newly displayed PageSetTwo page (a single column page on Master page Page2).
I have tried every combination of Pagination Place before and after settings and can find no way to avoid the blank pages.
Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on and how I can avoid these blanks showing up?I have finally managed to solve this problem.
The issue was not a subform extending too far out, it was a pagination setting, as Niall suggested.
I created a blank document to analyse the issue closely, and lo, my new blank doc with all default settings, worked perfectly.
So I revisited my forms and compared the pagination settings subform by subform.
This is what I had to change to ensure that all pages flowed with no extras:
PageSetOne (which is supposed to show using the two column master)
set the top page Place = ‘In Content Area Leftcolumn’ and After=Continue filling parent
All child subforms each with Pagination setting of Following Previous and Continue filling parent.
PageSetTwo (to show in the full page column Master)
set the top page Place = ‘In Content Area FullPage’ and After=Continue filling parent
All child subforms each with Pagination setting of Following Previous and Continue filling parent.
PageSetThree ( back to two column master)
set the top page Place = ‘On Page1’ and After=Continue filling parent
All child subforms each with Pagination setting of Following Previous and Continue filling parent.
I discovered that the critical setting was for PageSetOne. The After setting needed to be Continue filling Parent
Once I had those settings in order then the form performed as required.
This has been a frustrating learning experience but at least ultimately successful.

Clustered Environment - Changing from Public Network to Private Network
I have a clustered environment where the database sits on one node and the central instance sits on the other node. We just found out that somehow the communication between the database and central instance has been changed to talk over the public network instead of the private network. We don't know who did it or why.
So, my question is what do I need to do in SAP to accomodate the changing back to using the private network? Do I need to change system names in the profiles? Are there any gotchas on doing this? Are there any documents on doing this?
Thanks for any information you can provide on this topic.
Thanks,

Cannot get the copy setting to change from two-sided to one-sided on my officejet pro 8615
My copy setting on my printer (HP Officejet Pro 8615) all-in-one shows
Two Sided 1:1
When I tab over to where the 1-sided original and 1-sided original copy & 1-sided original and 2-sided copy can be selected, the blue light is on 1-sided original and 1-sided copy. It will not change to the One sided 1:1. The printer will print one side and asks you to flip over to side 2. As a result, I cannot print anything. Please helpHi @Granniej60
It sounds like we may need to select the option you want in the copy menu then select it as a default. To make sure I understand though, you are unable to select the 1 sided original : 2 sided copy, or you have selected it and it is not working?

How can I change the name of the administrator that shows on Home Icon?
Hello
I've bought this laptop from a reliable source, went to the Apple Store (Regent St) with the box and they registered it in my name, address and so on. No problems, the mac works fine.
However, the Home/Icon and administrator is in the name of the old owner. Obviously, he gave me the password. But, I really want to have my name on it.
I've the box, the discs and all the books. Everything is in really good conditions.
I read the manuals, the instructions are straight forward but on the net and forum related mac, I can see that are lots of people having problems when they reboot and are unable to login and so on...
The genius bar at the Apple Store is okay, but the staff main objective is to sell and they are not very patient and neither have much time for you. Normally I end up leaving the store with software that I don't have a clue how to use and the problem unsolved. And it stresses me out.
Can someone help me please.
Thank you
Best regards1. Yes, just the Shortname will be changed.
2. Not easier, but you can do that if you wish.
since I'm in the official Mac support forum should I expect to receive a reply from a Mac expert staff or it is unlikely to happen?
Just other Users here like you, trying to help other users. For a real Apple answer I think you have to call AppleCare, but rarely an Apple Host pops in... wouldn't expect it in this case though.
I do thank you for the info about your software and obviously will make a donation if everything works fine.
Not mine, but a worhy piece of SW just the same.

Trapping sync errors with eVB sync code??
Hi, Is there any way to 'trap' errors that occur when syncing from within an app that is using the sample eVB sync code? I'm talking about displaying the same type of error messages msync shows when an error occurs. Thanks.
