  • HT4623 My passbook will not connect to the app store. How do i fix this?

    My passbook will not connect to the app store. How do i fix this?

    I got the same error... the trick didn't fix it... but I don't think it has to.
    I already have had the current American Airlines app and happen to be flying later today. I was in the app to view my boarding pass and it gave me the option to add it... clicked to do so..
    and now that boarding pass is in Passbook!
    While it's frustrating not to be able to see all the apps available that support passbook via that connection that isn't happening... and apps that support passbook don't seem to have the keyword 'passbook' to come up in a reg itunes search.. Apps you have and apps you want that you know support passbook are all you need. I initially thought had to download special passbook apps or something - not the case. Just grab the apps you want normal via the iTunes store - and those that support passbook allow you to add the cards and passes and such to it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Using Windows 7, i-tunes will not connect to i-tunes store.  How do I fix this?

    Using my desktop with Windows 7, my iTunes will not connect to the iTuens store.  All other functions of iTunes works great.  I have all other programs that require internet working just fine..ie browsers (IE, FireFox or Chrome, and all email services) and all work normal. 
    I updated iTunes to current version as of today April 6, 2012 and now it does not work going to the iTunes Store.
    I have about 6-8 different Apple devices that use this iTunes, but right now, none of these are connected with my iTunes, as I was just going in to do some music shopping first before connecting any of them to my PC. 
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks in advance for any and all helpful information!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • While on Firefox my computer crashed and firefox will not open. Everthing else runs fine, how do I fix this?

    I'm using a new Asus netbook and have no idea what caused the crash. I tried restarting firefox in the crash pop up window, nothing happens. I tried quitting firefox and then restarting in the crash window, it sends a report and that's all. I cant open firefox. I have power cycled the computer several times, tried to checking and install all plug ins, re-install firefox, uninstall and then reinstall ( could not reinstall), I restored the computer to the previous day and it still wont open. I tried opening it safe mode, I tried opening the computer in safemode, I still can't open firefox. I also tried to test for a virus by creating a notepad document on the desktop and naming in firefox.exe. Notepad ran fine. I also renamed firefox.exe to firefox3.exe. This didn't work and changed the name back.
    What do I do now?
    The computer I'm sending this from is not the one that crashed

    Both your Conduit Engine, particularly, and Alexa Toolbar are known troublemakers. I would advise Googling both for advice and removal instructions.
    I'm not sure it is a good idea to have both Foxit and Adobe Reader.

  • Firefox will not connect to serever.

    Firefox will not connect to server. Other application connect.
    I have removed and reloaded firefox several times.

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Firefox will not connect to internet, period; all troubleshooting on my end has been done

    Firefox will not connect to any webpage. This is occurring daily and constantly. I have road runner service for internet access. I have done all troubleshooting on my end -- emptying cache, resetting modem, resetting router, etc. I cannot connect to internet. My computer is checked -- Windows troubleshooting, etc. Firefox has also been crashing at least 4-5 times a day on average. Sometimes I have a couple of days free of crashes. Most times, this is becoming infuriating. I have to be on line for work. I have gone through checks and pinging with the internet service through Time Warner Cable. What is going on? It's impossible that every website in the world has a broken server!!!

    So you also rebooted your router correct?  Does the iPod still connect okay to other networks?

  • Firefox will not connect to certain major `websites" Why? I can go to Google and access

    In the last 4 days Firefox will not connect/find certain major websites. Basically says that server not found.
    What's the deal here? I use windows 7 and have the most current
    firefox update.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • HT4922 Downloaded 5.1.1. to my iphone. Now, Safari will not connect to my server.  Can not download web pages and many of my apps. Running very slow sluggish! Is there a fix? Sound like other users are experiencing same problems.  Anyone have a solution?

    Downloaded 5.1.1 to my iphone. Now, Safari will not connect to my server. Can not download web pages and many of my apps. Email seems to be ok. iphone running slow and sluggish.  I have read several other users have experienced the same problem. Any solutions?

    Basic troubleshooting steps oultlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    You need to go through all steps in succession until your problem is solved.  If going through ALL these steps fails to resolve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • Can anyone help - my mail on my ipad will not connect to the server. My internet access is fine. How can I get my email to connect to the server?

    My ipad will not connect tot he server when trying to access my mail. This has been happening since last Sunday. Some have said it is due to the latest software update. I am able to connect to the internet.

  • Firefox will not connect to any site since downloading new upgrade.

    Firefox will not connect to any websites since installing the latest upgrade. Google Chrome and Internet do work.

    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set to trust the
    previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as
    trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet
    again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see
    '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet?esab=a&s=Configure+firewalls+&r=0&as=s Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}

  • Both my iphone 4s and my ipad3 will not connect to the server when trying to access my email account. Why, and how do I fix it.

    Since 29/10/2012 my iphone 4s and more recently my ipad 3 will not connect to the server when trying to access my email account. All I get is an error message saying that 'cannot get mail, connection to the server failed' I hadnt changed any settings it just happened. I have since done a complete re-boot on the ipad but to no avail. Anybody got any suggestions?

    No. Everything was working fine and then it wasn't. I hadn't changed any settings or switched either one off. When the phone stopped working properly I ignored it because I always have my ipad with me but that just sopped working properly and now I am stuffed. I have tried most solutions suggested on here even wiping the ipad clean and re-booting. I did this exactly the same way as when I first got it but still no joy. The same with the phone.
