  • HT4623 so I am updating my phone to the newest IOS and it has been doing it for hours.  I have now plugged it into the computer and it says that it is in recover mode and I should restore it?  What does that mean?  Do I lose everything on my phone?

    I am updating my phone to the newest IOS and it has been doing it for hours.  I have now plugged it into the computer and it says that it is in recover mode and I should restore it?  What does that mean?  Do I lose everything on my phone?  Is there anything else I can do?

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • I cannot record anything on iPod shuffle. Why? I do not recognise any of the windows shown in the various manuals about shuffle. Why? Currently an Orange light is blinking on the shuffle, and has been doing so for hours.  Why?

    I finally stumbled across a fix for this problem, and in case someone else is frustrated at some point by a similar issue I'm posting what finally worked to enable me to bring iTunes up at any time (without rebooting first).
    The solution was to go to the preferences to uncheck "search for shared libraries".
    I'm glad the problem is fixed, but Apple developers really should include a timeout function on iTunes search for a shared libraries. At least a visual dialog to confirm that the application is in the process of searching for a shared library on the network would help provide clues as to what is causing the spinning beach ball to appear right about the time the application window should pop up.

    Hi da522811,
    Are you still having trouble converting files? It sounds as though you may be trying to convert via Reader, is that correct? If so, please try logging out, and then logging back in. You may need to log out via the web interface at https://cloud.acrobat.com if you don't have access to the Sign Out button in Reader.

    If ATV is unplugged and you are still seeing an image that is not coming from ATV.
    If the update failed then you will need to connect ATV to a computer with iTunes via a USB cable and restore the software from iTunes.

  • My IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    my IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    Yes I have put in the correct password, its all numbers so can't get it wrong really.
    It has connected before as has my iPod and that won't connect either. I have checked that they aren't on the blocked list of the wi fi. Managed to download the new version of iOS and that hasn't made a difference.
    I have the wi fi plugged directly into the computer rather than the booster hub as the computer won't connect to it when its in the hub. I did get the iPad to connect to the internet when it twas in the hub but once I upgraded the iOS it won't accept the wifi password in the hub either.

    hi,my berry flip has been acting weird for a few weeks now.So is my 2 otherfriends. But specificly one of my friends. I think we are being hacked. Is there any ways i could find out who's doing this and or how can we prevent them from hacking us. Thank you.

    Hi there!
    "Hacking" of a BB would be highly unusual and unexpected -- if ever. After all, POTUS has one, and such would not be allowed if they were hackable. I believe that something else is going on, but lacking specifics, only generic advice can be given.
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    If that does not work, then please return to these forums (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/) and register an account so that we can provide you with direct assistance.
    Best!

  • HT1338 What's going on with iCloud (MobileMe)?  I'm able to sign in here, but I can't access mail on my Macbook Pro, iPhone, or work computer.  I always get an authorization error (user-id or passwork wrong).  This has been going on for almost a week now.

    The single download means that you won't be able to redownload it from the store without paying, either on a computer's iTunes or an iOS device - it doesn't stop you from copying the audiobook to your other computers or syncing it to your iOS devices, you just can't redownload it. (I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them requiring the one-time download.)
    You can download audiobooks on your computer's iTunes and sync them to iOS devices, you do not have to buy them directly on the device (if you do then you can copy them back to your computer's iTunes library by connecting the device and using the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option on your computer's iTunes).
    What you are doing to sync them should work i.e.
    - connecting the iPad to your Mac
    - selecting the iPad on your Mac's iTunes
    - selecting its Books tab and selecting the audiobooks that you want to sync to the iPad and syncing/applying that selection.
    You should then get an audiobooks option in the Music app on your iPad. If they aren't appearing there  then do they show in Settings > General > Usage > Music on the device - if you have audiobooks on the iPad then they should be listed there under an 'audiobooks' heading.
    By 'restart the iPad' do you mean a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    You could also try closing its Music app via the iPad's taskbar : Force an app to close in iOS.
    And do a soft-reset and retry syncing.
    I assume that music and other items sync ok ?

    I am trying to verify my email contact address with Apple. In the confirmation email I received, the link to verify is not active. This has been going on for over 2 weeks. They keep sending emails where I can't click on "VERIFY Now".

    In case anyone else has this problem, it turns out that my email provider's software was stripping the link out before it got to my mailbox.

    I have full membership to CC and have been using it for 4 months. Randomly Photoshop stopped opening jpgs, so I uninstalled and re-installed. Photoshop then stopped working all together. I signed out of the app manager and when I signed back in all my info was gone and only "TRIAL VERSIONS" of CC apps were available. I paid for this software. I need to be able to download it again.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

  • Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Please help!

    Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Also when I try to sink my mini with my iTunes account it says you cannot sync because the sync session failed to start.

    It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
    Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

    I have an iPad 1st generation that no longer has working volume buttons but every once in a while the sound turns on.  So I know the speakers still work.  I have tried resetting all settings and made sure that my side switch was auto lock not auto mute. I have tried the mystical swiping upward on the screen with 4 fingers to get some special sound menu (which I never succeeded in getting).  My headphone jack doesn't work all the time either so some times my kids can hear their games and sometimes they can't.  I am super frustrated at this point.  So any suggestions would be great.  Am I missing something basic or do we just have a soundless iPad now?

  • In the home page why does Firefox say I haven't upgraded when I have. This has been going on for over three weeks, I am now on 9 and still it says I have not upgraded.

    In the home page why does Firefox say I haven't upgraded when I have. So I upgrade again and still it says I haven't next time I log on. Today I upgraded to 9, it said congratulations on upgrading, I log off then log back on only to be told yet again I need to upgrade. What is going on?

  • ITunes 7.4.1 hangs & has been doing so for entire year!

    I am running a dual processor G4 machine with OS X 10.3.9. I have gone through many updates of iTunes and Quicktime, and always my problem remains. I have heard there may be a trigger relating to network activity, but I have yet to read anything on the issue that would clarify whether it relates to what I am about to describe. (In case it is relevant, however, I am on a network that serves to link printers and a cable modem between my Mac and some Windows PCs via ethernet — but this "network" does not involve logging into a remote host.)
    Okay, so here's the first of what is a twofold problem: If I want to use iTunes at all, I have to reboot my machine and launch iTunes immediately thereafter so that it loads before any other apps are launched. Even if I do not launch any apps after bootup, simply walking away and coming back later will trigger the problem of iTunes refusing to complete startup. So the gist of it is that if I fail to launch iTunes right after the computer boots, I will see the library load, the status bar complete successfully, and then, at the point where the app/window should appear… nothing. Not even an error message.
    The Activity Monitor simply states that iTunes has hung. To get rid of the spinning beach ball, I have to force iTunes to quit. Whenever the launch hangs up in this manner, I cannot even restart my machine because the logout will time out because iTunes is "not responding".
    The second component to this problem is that even if I reboot my computer and successfully launch iTunes — which, as I said, is the only way to make it work — I must continue using iTunes without interruption. Why? Because if I let the iTunes app go idle — say if I leave the computer for more than five minutes or launch another application — iTunes, upon my return, will "stop responding"… and again all I see is the spinning beach ball.
    As mentioned, there is no error messages whatsoever. In fact, when I view my crash log even the info. I find there (see below) is outdated. I cannot find anything more current than the error that was reported in March of this year (which, incidentally, is probably when all this started — about the same time OS 10.3.9 was installed to a fresh hard drive and my iTunes library was restored to my new drive using my iPod in conjunction with a third party app that spells iTunes backwards… but that's another story).
    Please keep in mind that I know next to nothing about UNIX command lines/troubleshooting. I've been using Macs since the '80s and was pretty good at troubleshooting all things pre-OS X, but when OS X came out Apple lost me.
    Thus far what I have done mostly amounts to repeatedly verifying/repairing disk permissions (using the install CD). Of course, if repairing permissions had helped, I wouldn't be here . I also downloaded and installed a fresh copy of QuickTime, but that didn't help, either. I've also run all the utilities, and everything turns up fine (I ONLY use OS X for Web surfing and iTunes; there are very few third-party apps installed).
    So now that I have given the circumstances, I will conclude this post with a sample from my console/crashlog. It dates back to March and isn't current, but hopefully it provides a clue as to why I've gone through all the iTunes/Quicktime updates and still see the exact same problem persist:

    Thanks again for any clues/tips you can provide! I've been dealing with this iTunes startup issue for the entire year thus far, but never had any such issues under Jaguar!

    I finally stumbled across a fix for this problem, and in case someone else is frustrated at some point by a similar issue I'm posting what finally worked to enable me to bring iTunes up at any time (without rebooting first).
    The solution was to go to the preferences to uncheck "search for shared libraries".
    I'm glad the problem is fixed, but Apple developers really should include a timeout function on iTunes search for a shared libraries. At least a visual dialog to confirm that the application is in the process of searching for a shared library on the network would help provide clues as to what is causing the spinning beach ball to appear right about the time the application window should pop up.
