Frozen and nothing will fix it.

I need to call up iTune for help - but i can't. So now i dont know what to do.
I was downloading the connex ap last night when all of a sudden my iPod touch froze and blacked out. at first i thought 'this has happened before, give it 5 min and it will be fine' the next morning i wake up and it is still not working.
It will connect to the computer but freezes up when i try to sync (though the screen is still black).
Mines a first gen i think =S
help?????

My recommendation is to restart the iPhone. All you do is hold down the top button and hold down the home button for 5 seconds untill it automatically shuts down. Then click the top button untill you see a grey apple on your screen.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.
The internet goes out and I have to reset network setting each and every time. This is only a temporary solution which by the time I release the line with Spring or leave the apple store the issue is back. Sprint indicates that it is a know issue with the Iphone 5 and apple says it is a network issue as Sprint's network is not up to par with the Iphone and can not meet the expectations on the Iphone 5.
I have attached a few picture, as you can see it clearly says I have 5 bars and 3g available but I have no connections what so ever.
This issue affects all data and so I can not send or receive picture messages, use apps, or access the internet. The data goes in and out intermittently and it seems the phone chooses what I can and can't do.
For example I can watch Youtube or Vevo videos but I can not access Facebook or Instagram.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I will soon loose my patience....
I have reset my phone three time and have reset network and other setting mutltiple times.

My pdf's will not dl either and nothing will open except qt picture viewer.

my pdf's will not dl either and nothing will open except qt picture viewer. quick time is over riding pdf files. is there a check mark to take off somewhere. quick time should not over power pdf files.

I can't explain the cause to the problem - but I found two "work-arounds" to get me running again.
Workaround #1:
I found another program (and there are many) on the web that will also read .pdf files. I downloaded "Foxit Reader" , installed it and it works. I can now view my pdf docs!
However - I got so used to Adobe Reader - I really wanted to get Reader working again.
Workaround #2:
I re-installed Adobe Reader 8.
Instead of running the usual Adobe installation script that I got from the web, I copied (from another PC's C-drive) the "Reader 8.0" folder and all its contents into my current C- drive directory structure C:\Program Files\Adobe\.
I re-booted the PC and can now open my pdf files using Reader 8.
It seems to work - but I don't know what the effects of this installation method will have in the future - or the interaction it will have with other programs. I guess when I need to remove the program in the future - I'll have to do it manually, since it doesn't even register in the "Add or Remove Programs" under Control Panel.
===============
Hope this helps out anyone else with similar symptoms.
In the original problem, it's unfortunate that there were no error messages whatsoever when I tried opening the pdf files. It was like as if Reader was not even activated or even loaded on my PC. I'll bug me for a while - but at least I got Reader working again (for now....)!

HT4061 My iPad is disabled and nothing will get me passed this, not even a restore or factory reset

My iPad is disabled and nothing will get me passed this, not even a restore or factory reset. The restore through iTunes won't complete because it says there is a passcode on the iPad and cannot complete, but I can't get to the passcode screen to enter anything. Anyone have any suggestions?

HT1430 My iPad isn't getting connection to internet. It just suddenly stopped! It says it is connected to WiFi but it just keeps spinning and nothing will come up. Have tried rebooting my router and iPad (my other computer is connected just fine).

Try turning WiFi off on the iPad, then reset it again, turn WiFi on again and join your network again if necessary. Or go to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Forget this network. Reset your iPad and then join your network again. Or - settings>General>Reset>Reset network settings. Reset the iPad, then try to join your network again.

My iPod touch is frozen and it will not turn off or anything. What do I do?

My iPod touch is frozen and it will not turn off or anything. What do I do?
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, PLEASE HELLP ME!!!!!
I need help!!!

If not successful, try the remainder of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Love my new ipad. But after upgrading to ios7 Safari became dodgy. Now it is frozen in a white screen and nothing will free it. Everything else on the ipad works fine. I deleted data, history, cookies, etc. Same problem. No change after power down.

Everything worked fine on my new ipad. After I upgraded to ios7 it still worked fine even if it looked very different. But Safari started acting strangely (it is starting the same thing on my iPhone 4s, too). Finally, it froze in state with no URL, no keyboard will come up, I can get Safari to close and start, but not actually function. I went into settings and deleted all the cookies, data, history, and so forth. Same state. I powered down the iPad and restarted. Same state. I tried a trick were I held down the button to bring up the power down stripe and then holding down the home button. Same state.
What can I do? Can I delete Safari and re-install it somehow? Should I take it to an Apple store?

If powering down with hard reset (press and hold two buttons Power and home) will not give positive results follow that article

My Ipod screen in black and nothing will work

Its a 3rd gen ipod nano. I just took it off the charger and was watching a podcast, I then left it on the table for a second and when I cam back the screen was black.I tried to restart it but I won't work. I went on the apple site and did the 5r's, but nothing will work. The computer wont even pick up that I plugged something in it.
I don't have itunes 8.2, can that be the issue? I did try to instal it, but near the end it told me I didn't have permission for something and aborted?
Any ideas on what I can try to do to fix it? My warranties is up, and I rather not shell out the money for a new one

I have the same problem only with the 4g nano

Mac Keeps Crashing - Menu Bar Disappears and Nothing Will Run

I'm having major problems with a macbook, 2.2Ghz, 4Gb RAM, 160Gb Hard Drive, 10.5.2
I'm not sure if this is a software bug, something to do with the fact that I've recently installed 4Gb RAM, replacing 2Gb that I installed a few months ago, or possibly something with parallels desktop running Vista, I recently installed several vista updates.
Basically, there are several ways in which the computer keeps crashing - I've pretty much figured out how to make it crash now. When it crashes, the menu bar disappears, sometimes leaving the shadow beneath it and the right hand icons, sometimes not, and the dock becomes useless - nothing will run. I cant use expose etc or switch between windows. Pressing Cmd Alt Esc to open the force quit dialogue box bring up an empty box - implying that nothing whatsoever is running! I have to physically shut down the computer using by holding the power button and start it back up again. When it starts up, it sometimes continues to refuse to work until i restart it again. There is no message whatsoever about having restarted or crashed.
The computer will work fine for most processes, but the things making it crash are:
1. Entering Time Machine (I've had to stop backing up and disconnect my time machine drive now)
2. Using parallels desktop - I run windows vista, and it'll work fine until I launch any applications that are more complicated than just solitaire or freecell - windows messenger and powerpoint will cause the crash. OSX won't be working, but windows will continue to work fine - I can finish what Im doing and shut it down, although keyboard input no longer works. I then have to restart OSX.
3. Running DVD Player in Front Row has now started bringing up the grey screen of death and telling me to restart.
Obviously these things can be avoided - but I can't back up my computer, I can't watch DVD's without crashing the computer, restarting and then going straight into DVD player, and I can't use the copy of Vista on Parallels that I've just spent a fair bit of money on.
I've tried taking out each of the 2Gb Kingston RAM cards, which came brand new and sealed, to see if one or other is possibly faulty, but they are both causing the same problems. I don't have the previous RAM cards to hand to test.
Has anyone here experienced anything like this before, or can anyone help me?

Hiya Pricerob,
Your problems seem to be exactly the same as the issue I'm having when it happens. Can I ask how much RAM you have installed, and how frequently the problem occurs? I'm curious also because I'm planning on buying an imac soon, and was planning on installing the 4Gb of RAM I have into that when it arrives - the £300 apple charges for the upgrade is a little excessive.
I mentioned that I've tried to download the latest firmware update, but it keeps crashing upon completion. Have you had any issues like this?
Another really obscure thing I've found regarding the firmware update is that it saves an install file to my Applications/Utilities folder. This file would cause my mac to crash. Every time I opened the utilities folder, it would crash. I moved it to the desktop, and had major issues where the computer would crash immediately upon startup because the file was there, and the same problem once I managed to get it in the trash. It was only by accessing the macbook in target disk mode that I was able to delete the file and use my computer as normal again.
Anyway, considering the problems I've had, would anyone say it's worth risking installing the RAM into a new imac when it comes, considering that the problems with my macbook are ongoing even when the RAM is removed and I can easily reinstall the operating system on a brand new computer, or should I leave it and buy some more?

HT1338 trying to create a book and nothing will happen

When I try to create a book nothing will happen.

1. If you manually sort Images in a Project, and then create a new Book w. "Include selected Images" checked, your manual sort order will be preserved.
2. As a workaround for when you have already created a Book, batch rename your Images with a leading index or counter after setting the order manually. You'll have to create a Naming Preset, e.g.: "{Index}_{Version Name}". The renaming should go in the order that you selected the Images, so be sure to select the first one first, and then use "Edit→Select all" to extend the selection to all Images. Once the Images are in your Book, a sort on Version Name should be the same as the manual sort you created.
3. At the risk of stating the obvious, you could create the Book, import the Images, and then sort them. The Book -- it is, to Aperture, just a special kind of Album -- retains its own manual sort order. I recommend using Albums this way. Use Projects to cull and develop Images, and use Albums for output. Sorting for a Book (or any output) is better done in the container devoted to that output (and not in the Project, which is more general).

I have a white screen with an apple and nothing will work?

Turned my mac on and have a plain screen with an apple logo. Nothing will work?

Hi,
Some kernel extension or driver isn't loading properly, it seems. Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key down on startup until you reach the grey Apple backdrop with the spinning cogwheel and a progress bar. As soon as the progress bar shows up, you can let go of the Shift key.
Booting in Safe Mode takes a lo-ooong time, so be patient and don't interrupt (the computer booting, not me talking...). Once you've reached a workable Desktop, reboot in normal mode and tell us if it solved your problem.

MacBook Pro Mid - 2010 has question mark folder and block sign at start up could I get apple care and apple will fix it

I need information ASAP on what I should do with my MacBook Pro , am I able to just give apple the money for the apple care cost and they'll fix problem

It's too late, at this point, to get AppleCare, unless you purchased the machine on or after February of 2011 - and then you'd only have a few months, at best, of extended warranty.
The best thing that you can do is to either diagnose the symptoms and fix the machine yourself or take it into an Apple Store or AASP and have them diagnose and fix the problem(s).
If your profile is correct and you're running 10.5.8 then you should get disc one that came with your machine and boot from it and run Disk Utility's Verify and Repair commands on your hard drive. If it fails, you'll know that the problem is most likely with the hard drive.
Good luck,
Clinton
