TS3992 Since updating to iOS 6, my iPad has not been able to back up to cloud. I have more than enough storage,have deleted apps, tried manual back-ups, but back-up will not complete. I keep getting messages to back-up, but NOTHING has worked. Help!

My iPad will not back up to cloud inspite of trying everything mentioned. I have more than enough space on device. It was last backed-up on 12-12-12. Have never had this problem before. Keep getting messages that it needs backing up. Have tried multiple manual back-ups for at least 24 hrs or more, but back-up will not complete. Help!

If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test: Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options. Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup. If that doesn't work, then this post will not help. If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup. If successful, keep repeating these steps. If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail. (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

I am trying to install the latest update for HP Printers, it will not completely install ,now my printers won't work. Help!

I am trying to install the latest update for HP Printers, it will not completely install ,now my printers won't work. Help!

Hello Carolyn - Thank you for your quick response to my concerns, I had already gone to the HP support site and tried to get the latest HP drivers, the site said for Lion 10.7 there was NA version. So, I just used my time machine to replaced the OS from that time spot. I got my printers working again, so all right with the printer. But, the fact remains that I still keep getting the New Update HP Printer in the software update window. But, what happens if I try to download and install it is this: It starts the download, everything seems to come down fine, it starts write the files and then starts moving items into place, the blue bar fills to all most the end and slows down to a stop and never completes the installation. I have left my laptop on over night and it never finishes the operation. I can only force quit the software update. Which has knock out my printer drivers. Now, I just keep unchecking the box in the software updates for new HP printer software. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just my system? Sincerely: Professor G

DirectD2 is blocked in graphics and is asking for newer version, commercials will not complete on MSNBC

The commercials stop and do not complete when I watch MSNBC, when I look up the trouble solution is gives: DirectD2Enabled: then lists, Blocked on your graphics driver. Try updating your graphics driver to version 10.6 or newer.

Try this:
Start iTunes in iTunes Safe Mode:
1. hold down the Shift and Control key together and click to start iTunes.
2. when you see the iTunes icon in the task bar, click on it.
3. you will get a box that says "iTunes is running in safe mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been termporarily disabled." [I don't know what plug-ins I installed but you should clearly see that these so-called visual plug-ins are likely the cause of your issues];
4. click Continue to open iTunes.
Now press your sync button and everything should work fine.

I am a subscriber to a web site that no longer allows me to connect. The message I receive is,"Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address that will not complete." Why, and what can I do to fix it?

I am using a new computer with the latest version of FF on it. When the problem began, I was using an older computer that had a virus and malware on it. I have not yet cleaned the files from the old computer and consequently have not transferred any of them. I don't understand why I am having this same problem. I am not experienced with FF and wonder if there is some setting that I need to change.

Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL, change the top option to '''Everything '''and in the bottom menu, checkmark '''Cache '''(uncheck all the others). Then click '''Clear Now'''.
Then go to '''Tools''' | '''Options '''| '''Advanced '''and in the Network tab | Offline Storage menu, click '''Clear Now'''.
Then go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''Privacy''', click '''Show Cookies '''button and delete the cookies for lumosity.com.
Then try again.

Plenty of space for Download, but it will not complete.

The loading dialog box remains open with the bar going madly from left to right. Load never finishes. Had same problem yesterday. Finally gave up. Trying again today with same result. I have 9 GB of space available so that's not the issue.

When trying to do a system backup to my remote LaCie hard drive, what does it mean when I get a message that says "waiting for volume LaCie disk"? While this message apears no back-up occurs. Is there a setting I need to change?

You can't do a backup of icloud to an external drive. In fact, does your post have anything to do with icloud (you're in the icloud forum)?
What kind of "system backup" are you doing? Are you using Time Machine?

when turn imessage on there is a message saying waiting for activation but it doesnt change anybody knows why?

Hi guys,
I keep getting "waiting for activation" on my iMessage. I can only send/receive iMessage from my email address, NOT my phone number.
I have done all kind of fixing suggestions that I can find online, but nothing works so far.
- Date & time set as automatic (I don't know why this matter, but mine was already set as automatic from the begining)
- Reset network setting
- Changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8.
- Restore to factory setting (from back up & as new iPhone)
- Turning on/off iMessage & facetime
- Sign out/in of apple ID
- Change location from apple ID
- Hard reset/reboot
And many others.
...me too. I'm in Portugal having the same issue!! Hopefuly Apple will give us a solution, shortly...

I upgraded from the 4s to the 5s on Tuesday and requested my O2 number be carried over to my new EE contract. Everything has been carried over fine but i have been unable to switch on Imessage and Facetime, Error message shows 'Waiting for Activation' I've done the the resets and followed the instructions from the Apple Help page but still can't get it to switch on??

If you say you have done everything in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268, then you should probably contact your carrier for their advice.

Check if /*+ FULL(PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F) */ hint existed in the SDE_ORA_INVENTORYPRODUCTDIMENSION_FULL mapping Source qualifier?.

Issue: installed Adobe Reader XI, Norwegian version, existing pdf will not open or appear empty

I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, but I still have the same issue. Adobe automatically gives me the Norwegian version as I live in Norway. When I open existing pdf files they appear empty, and automatically close themselves after a few seconds.
Any idea how I can solve this problem?
Your input is highly appreciated!
Thank you.

Thank you so much for your swift response, Pat! The first step – accepting the Eula license agreement solved my problem ☺ ☺ ☺
Wish you a great day – you just helped making mine a lot better!

TS1398 My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet. It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet. It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My iPhone adobe reader for iOS6 is stuck in update state and will not complete updating any ideas?

My iPhone 4 adobe reader for iOS6 is stuck in update state and will not complete updating should I uninstall and reinstall the app?

The update process is handled entirely by iOS and unfortunately, there isn't anything the Reader can do during this process to prevent "stuck updates". Generally, we don't recommend uninstalling unless you have to because uninstalling will delete all of the PDF's in your documents!
Here are some steps that work for most users:
1.       Make sure wifi and/or cellular data are turned on
2.       Test to be sure your internet connection is working by opening safari and browsing to a website (like www.adobe.com).
3.       Single tap the app’s icon on the home screen and it will pause the download. Now go back to the iTunes Apps store, switch to the “Updates” screen and click “Update” to resume the download.
4.       If this doesn't work, go to Settings -> iTunes & App Stores and tap the Apple ID to sign-out. Restart the iPad, go back to Settings -> iTunes Apps Store and sign-in. Tap the waiting icon to update the app.
Please let me know if this helps!
