Everytime I get thru to the point of extending the current wireless system I end up with an error and asks to retry. I have tried everything. Light keeps flashing amber. Any ideas out there

Installing Airport extreme to extend existing wireless system. I have airport Utility current. after getting to the point of extending the system it tells me there was an error and please retry. I am using my IPad and I phone with the utility and both don't work. I have internet via hard wire thru the AEBS and it does see the wireless signal but the big I shows up and the light still flashes amber. ( I am using an HP lap top and linksys router is main wireless station). Working on this most of the day, any help?

Please describe the changes you made in detail.. it is terribly hard to fix network issues remotely with vague general comments.
Was the TC, main router, bridged, connected via ethernet or joined to the wireless network???
What is the main router now..?? What is the wireless?
Do you have a direct connection to the TC by ethernet.. ?? If not you need one for setup.. plug ethernet to a laptop is easiest or remove the TC from the network and just plug it into the computer.. press and hold the reset for 10sec to get access.
Lion is hopeless network wise.. and you need to download the proper airport utility 5.6 before you attempt this.. so connect up by ethernet to the main router.. whatever that is and download the stuff you need before you begin.

At 8:00 am every morning there is a loud page-turning noise from my iPhone. I have no idea what it is and have tried everything to stop it. Any help out there?

Every morning at 8:00 am there is a loud page-turning sound from my iPhone 5s. I have no idea what is causing it and it can be quite startling earlhy in the morning if you are alone. Any one have any idea what it could be?

If it goes off at 8am every morning, then you have probably set the alarm without realising it.
Check the alarm and turn it off.

I restored my ipod touch however the apps will not sync. I tried to re-download but I changed my apple id as my old id is no longer a valid email address. Any ideas out there please

It might be logical to someone, but not to me. I agree it's a pain.
How did you change your Apple ID? Creating a new one is not what you want to do, but if you changed the ID associated with your purchases then that might have worked. You would need to sign in with the Apple ID on both your iPod Touch as well as in iTunes. I'm not sure how you changed it but clearly they need to match.
If it's just your password that is not getting recognized reset it here: http://iforgot.apple.com/
It will send an email confirmation to the email address associated with that Apple ID. The email address you elect to use might not look anything like your Apple ID. If you don't appear to get an email check your spam filter.

- You can only syncewith one iTunes library. It sounds like you change libraries such as changing the computer.
- As you may know you can transfer iTunes' pruchases to a new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- This previous discussion provide info on how to move other music from an iPod to a computer:
Best iPod to PC
- You can also manage music with different computers by:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
- If you need more help please provide more information.

I am about to go get my 4th iphone 4s since November! Up in the left coener where it shows your signal strength, it goes into searching mode and stays there. Kills my battery. This one has lasted the longest-I got it December 23. Any ideas out there?

I am about to go get my 4th iphone 4s since November! Up in the left corner where it shows your signal strength, it goes into searching mode and stays there. Kills my battery. While in searching, no calls can be made/recieved, no internet, etc. This one has lasted the longest-I got it December 23. Any ideas out there?

Both. The first two, I did use my itunes. The guy at the apple store said that could be the problem. The last time they gave me a new phone and SIM card, and the tech said it wouldnt be the itunes. Just to be safe, I never connected this phone to the itunes until last night-after it started searching- to save everything since I'm sure they will be replacing the phone today. But hey, thanks for the suggestions. I'm about at my wits end with Apple!! Especially since i added a third line to my account just so I could get an iphone back.

I've been using iMovie for a while now to make movies out of mostly travel photos and video clips. I try to vary the time for the photos from 1-4 sec. Any ideas out there?

I've been using iMovie for a while now to make movies out of mostly travel photos and video clips. I try to vary the time for the photos from 1-4 sec., although most of them are 1-2 seconds so as to keep it short. A friend of mine who saw my most recent product said that this is too short. Any ideas out there?

I apologize for my confusion on your question. I find that depending on the principal of each photo and my target audience to determine the time frame for each photo. It seems most people get impatient with viewing one photo for more than 1-2 seconds if the photo is not complex.
If there are several things that interests the viewers in any one image, they want to look at it a second or two longer. If the movie of images is a training aid, the images may need to be more than 3 seconds. For intro's, or a trailer for a training movie, no longer than 1-2 seconds.
That was a long answer to say, generally speaking, I find 3 seconds to be an average time length.

YouTube films are only playing audio, no pictures any ideas out there. Mike D

YouTube films are only playing audio, no pictures. Any ideas out there I have already cleared out my Safari history as suggested in another post, this solved the issue for a day but back to square one now.

I am having the same problem. Last night during a long call using headphones, suddenly I could not be heard, but I could hear the person I was talking to. I did not try the speaker. This morning with out the headphone twice I placed a call and heard no ringing, but the call did connect as I was told they got the call, but no one was there. I just reset the phone and will see what happens. I was thinking of going to the Apple store were I got the phone, but if they are going to ship it off rather than exchnage it, that is a no go for me at this point.

On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.

Hi Patrick,
Yes, a very frusterating issue indeed. Someone else had mentioned a possible issue with real player, I tried getting rid of that and same issues. I even got completely rid of firefox for the moment. Guess what, problem still is persisting. I think this means it maybe something else altogether. I will go back to re-add firefox after I get this straightened out but now using Chrome for the moment.
What I've also found out is that the sound can be restarted when I unplug and replug in the 3.5mm speaker cable from the audio output jack on the back of the computer. Any ideas?
Thanks!

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

My ipod has received error code (9). I have tried to restore, but failed. Any idea how to restore back to original settings?

Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Not sure if this will work, but you could try the app My Contacts Backup. This will back up your contacts as an email attachement. Send the email to yourself. Then turn off contacts syncing (to erase the contacts from your phone), open the email and tap the attachment to re-import the contacts to your phone. You will still have to go through them and remove the duplicates but at least they should not be duplicated again. (There is an app called
Remove Duplicate Contacts and Events that claims to be able to find and remove duplicates but you'll have to read the reviews in the app store to decide if you want to try it.)

YOu will need to contact your cell phone provider to resolve those issue, those are carrier features.
