  • I have the iCloud backup screen up and it won't let me do anything.  It's stuck and I can't shut the ipad down or use the screen at all.

    The iCloud back up screen it on my ipad.  It won't let me do anything, turn it down or use any of the screen.  I have even tried to force shut it down but it won't let me use the screen at all.  I plugged it into my main computer to do a backup and it's still stuck. 
    Help

    It's rude not to share your solution and then mark your answer as correct so that it may help others. So in case anybody else reads this ....
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    That will get you out of that backup screen. There is a reason that screens shows up. You haven't backed up your iPad! Make sure you backup regularly!

  • MacBook won't let me type anything at all

    MacBook won't let me type anything at all. It's running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snowleopard

    You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
    An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
    An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to allow it to run on Intel processors.
    10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
    10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
    10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

  • HELP?! My iPod touch won't let me type anything!

    I just got my ipod touch and finished setting it up and putting all my music on it. I was trying to get on the internet but I have to put in a password for my internet connection. Whenever the keyboard comes up on my iPod it won't let me type anything. It just pops up for a minute and then dissapears! *What's going on??* Can anyone help!

    Where are you physically located?
    What country's Store are you using?
    The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
    Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

  • Itunes store won't let me buy anything, why?

    ok, i just got up the nerve to buy a $50 itunes card first time, now i feel like i was duped, it won't let me buy anything, i redeemed the points, look in the store and decided the first thing i wanted to get was the ipod touch upgrade, i click on it and it asks me for my apple id password, i enter it correctly click "Buy" and then asks me for the password again and this time instead of the button saying "buy" its says "billing info" now it now takes me to the page and all the info is right, im not using a card because i don't have one and i don't think i should need one because i have the itunes points which is clearly displayed beside my account name on the itunes program. now after i click done it just takes me back to the itunes store home page... so then i think maybe the update just isn't available at the moment, so then i look up the app "video safe" and try to buy it, same exactly thing happens, someone plzz help, im confused as to y i am not able to buy anything, i have the points, id like to use them
    Message was edited by: insightdesigns

    apple should really make that clear, thats the reason i bought the points for in the first place, to get apps and the update. man this *****, ok so pretty much if i don't have a credit card then im screwed right? i can't get the update or get apps unless they are free? are there app cards or something i can buy in order to buy them? kuz i can't get a credit card and i want to get this stuff, and if im not mistaken isn't this bad? its stopping ppl from spending money on this stuff, its cutting profit, if you could use it for all of it then im sure ppl would buy them alot more, kuz its "re-donk-u-less" that they don't have an easier way to get the stuff like apps and upgrades unless you hav a credit card. idk man, is apple going to change that anytimes soon?

  • My iPod touch is disabled and has a passcode but it won't let me type in the passcode it's stuck on connect to iTunes screen help!!!!!

    My iPod touch 8th 3rd gen is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and won't let me do anything and iTunes won't restore it or do anything because there is a password on it and I can't type it in on the touch since it's stuck on this screen help please I've tried doin the power and menu button to restart it and it goes right back to connect to iTunes someone please helpme

    Try again placing the iPod in recovery mode.  It can be tricky. The computer should say it discovered an iPod in recovery mode.  Recovery mode bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod).  If not successful, try placing the iPod in DFU mode.

    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.

  • Inspector won't let me type in series section

    I'm trying to make custom error bars for my bar graph, but inspector won't let me enter anything into the series section.  The sections are not grayed out and I can still use the drop down menu.  It was working a few minutes ago, but now it has stopped and I can't get it to work again.  I'm using Numbers '09

    Hi Dania,
    If there is a parameter field taht you can't type into, then chances are that you haven't activated the feature that requires that field. For instance, if you can't type into the custom negative error bar field, make sure that you have enabled negative error bars.

  • Terminal won't let me type my password

    Hiya,
    Don't know anything about Terminal. I'm trying to set my computer up for remote printing to use at my university library. Using my IT services webpage, I copied and pasted a text string into the window as instructed. I got this:
    We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
    Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.
    Password:
    So what I think that means is that whatever I was supposed to enter there was fine. The problem is that it's won't let me type my password. I tried typing all different kinds of characters, and nothing happens- there's just a dark grey box after the colon. If I hit return, it says "sorry, password incorrect" or something.
    My computer is a two-year-old iBook G4 running some kind of OS X, if that matters. Sorry, I feel like this is probably really obvious, but I'm at a loss.
    Thanks,
    Kate
    iBook G4    

    When you are prompted for your password in Terminal nothing will be echoed to the screen when you type your password... no characters, no dots, the cursor won't move... that's normal... it's a security safeguard.
    Just type your password and press the return key.
    However, you must be logged into your computer with an account that has administrator privileges. And it's asking for the password of the account you're logged in to.

  • IPhone keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes"

    When I try to type the word "fixes", the iPhone (3G, with iPhone OS 2.2) keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes". If I hold down my finger for the last letter, and move it left and right, I can see that it is refusing to allow "S" to be typed. It switches between "A" and "D".
    I have seen other examples of this in the past, where the keyboard simply refuses to type some letters, but never on a common English word before.
    Has anyone found a way around this, other than accepting the wrong letter, backspacing, and re-typing?
    Cheers,
    Will.

    All this time, I thought it was me...I couldn't for the life of me type my daughter's name, Caitlin, into the phone. I would always get C-A-I-R-L-I-N. Again, thought it was just me not being able to hit that key right, though I don't really have a problem with anything else. Then this weekend, I finally tried to force the phone to type it right by trying to slide my finger to the "T", and it was completely skipped over. I went back and forth from "R" to "Y" several times. Nope, the "T" refused to be typed. Now that I know it's a confirmed bug, I feel a little bit better about my iPhone typing skills.

  • My iPad won't let me type and has a black square around and thing I touch

    my ipad won't let me type and has a blck square around anything I touch. Have done everything online so far...

    Your Users Guide has a whole chapter (at the end) devoted to what you do when things aren't going well, generally following the sequence of
    Restart - red slider, then boot up again
    Force Quit apps - either via Sleep/Wake followed by Home, or via Recents Tray
    Reset - hold Home & Sleep/Wake to force reboot
    Reset iPad Settings - Settings > General >Reset
    Erase All Content -   same as above
    Restore iPad Software - iTunes or iOS 5 equivalent
    You start at #1 and work your way through until the issue you're seeing goes away. If you get through all of the steps and it still doesn't work, you're pretty much out of gas and have to start talking to Apple.
    So, firs thing to try? Just power it down and then restart. If that fixes it, great; if not, move along and try the rest of the steps in order.
