  • HT201210 I updated the ipad and when finished it asked me for a passcode. I tryed my password 3 times and now cannot get into the ipad. It says it is disabled.

    I updated my ipod this morning and it worked fine. I never needed a password to use my ipod before this. I tryed to get back in and it asked for a PASSCODE.  I tryed my password 3 times and now it just shows "ipad disabled"

    Go to item 12 in the AppleID FAQ for help with a disabled account.
    You can also go to the AppleID support page and click manage your account for additional help.

  • Help - My machine won't boot and I cannot get into the BIOS - 990FXA-GD65

    I have been trying to install an AHCI driver for use by WinXP, so far with no success (see this link: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=161637.0 )
    However, following my last unsuccessful attempt, I had to take a break from running any more attempts and switched off the machine for several days.
    I have come back to it tonight and I find that the machine won't boot at all and that pressing DEL or F11 after starting won't take me to the BIOS or the boot menu. The display shows nothing, other than 'No HDMI signal'
    Are there any tests I can do to establish what might be wrong?
    pbb

    Thankfully the machine has come back.
    I tried a couple of cmos/battery clears, with no success.
    Then I took out one stick of memory, cleared the cmos and it all worked on rebooting!
    I put back the memory slug, cleared cmos again and it continues to work!!
    What a relief - thanks xmad.

  • HT1277 i just updated with the new update and now cannot get into my email.  please help!

    i just updated with the new apple update and now cannot get into my email.  i get an error message that i tried to open mail version 4.5 and cannot in apple os x  please help!

    This happened because if Mail.app was moved from /Applications or placed in a sub-folder there, the update (Security Update 2012-004) couldn't find it and fails for writing new files to Mail. This update updates Mail 4.5 to 4.6, consequently the message that 4.5 is incompatible, since it's looking at the now "old" 4.5 version. See the thread linked below for a fix and some other possible workarounds.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4311280?tstart=0
    Basically, make sure Mail.app is in the Applications folder inside the Macintosh HD folder, and sitting by itself not in an enclosing folder. Then get the update from Apple Downloads   and run that again.

    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

  • Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. How can I delete it??

    Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. Is there any way I can delete it so I can delete the version I wanted, or even better change to the SD version? The film is still queuing in the downloads list. I've tried edit and delete but that doesn't work. I also can't re-download the film from iTunes.
    Any suggestions very welcome!

  • My music library seems corrupted. Nearly every song (431 albums) displays "the song ... could not be used because the original file cannot be found". Is there any way to correct this? Please help, thanks, Kelly

    Almost my entire itunes music library seems corrupted. Nearly every song (431 albums) displys "the song ...  cannot be used because the original file cannot be found". Is there any way to correct this? Please help!
    thanks,
    kelly61

    Select one of the songs in question and right click, then select "Get Info". On the main dialog page you should see where iTunes thinks the file resides. Then use Windows Explorer to see if the file is actually there. If not, find out where your music is stored.If there is not a correlation between iTunes and reality, go into iTunes and delete all of the files which are not found.  Then, in iTunes, select File->Add Folder to Library and select where the music is stored. iTunes will re-add all of the music into your library.

    Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help.  Thanks Apple for such a crappy update!  I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone.  Sheesh!  If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • HT201365 I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Help Please

    I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Can anyone help?

    If you know the password to your apple id login - you can then do a restoration once you have put your device into recovery mode using itunes.
    read this article to give you direction how to put your device into recovery mode.
    Once you have put in your apple id login and password this then will allow you to restore the device once the device is placed in recovery mode.
    good luck!

  • HT1174 On the opening screen of my ipad2 the itunes apple icon and the usb cord are displayed.  What do I do to delete them?  Do not tell  ll me to download something, as I cannot get into the ipad

    On the opening screen of my 1pad2 the itunes apple icon and usb cord are displayed.  How do I delete them?  Do NOT tell me to download anything, as I CANNOT GET INTO THE IPAD.

    You can't get rid of those icons because that means that you MUST connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore the device. You have no choice. There is no way to remove that from the screen. Something went wrong on the iPad and you need to restore it now.

  • I can open my iTunes and play my purchased music, but I cannot get into the iTunes store.  btw, I just downloaded the new version of iTunes

    I downloaded the new version of iTunes, and now, I cannot get into the iTunes Store. 

    many thanks.
    I am in my iTunes application and when I press the link to connect to the iTunes Store, it starts churning, and churning, but never connects. It has churned for hours and when I finally click the "X" to close it, I get error code 11222.

    ? I downloaded the upgrade this morning -- 6/6/12 -- and noew I cannot get into the Develop module. I get an error message.

    The problem seems to have been corrected. When I checked to make sure that all other modules were accessible, Lightroom 4 quit, restarted and then checked something - "power point curves", went through some kind of internal procedure, after whiuch the problem no longer existed. The error message had been : "An error occurred when attempting to change modules." I decided to respond in this way in case someone else stumbles into this.
    Thank You for responding.
