HD won't appear on Desktop and cannot use Find for HD searches
The HD icon disappeared from my Desktop last week and I cannot get it back using Finder Preferences. Also when I search with Find it cannot see anything on the HD although all applications etc are there and can be used. External HD icon and CDs etc. show up on desktop. Tried Disk Utility first Aid but still nothing. Other "dummy accounts" have same problem. Any ideas??? I'm stumped.

After 10.7.2. update cannot see SD card reader in usb drive. Used to appear on desktop and start iPhoto but now nothing happens. It is recognised by system profiler (usb hub), but cannot find it anywhere. Any ideas?
Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

When plugged my samsung in USB as memory device no new device icon appears at desktop like it used to do in snow leopard. But USB prober recognizes the phone... Why and How?
OK, I think you are trying to connect the printer wirelessly to your wireless router, right?
I think that is the way to go, so let's do that:
1. Restart the router by pulling its power cord momentarily. Let it restart.
2. On the front of the printer go to Setup > Wireless (or Netowrk, not sure) > Wireless Setup Wizard. Run the Wizard to connect your printer to your router.
3. After that, go to Control Panel > Devices & Printers and delete all instances of the printer.
4. Finally re-add the printer with these instructions:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing. Get its IP from a Network Test printed from the front panel of the printer.
2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Devices & Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.

The iPad you connected is not recognized and cannot be activated for servic
Hi there,
Today I've received a replacement iPad (from Apple), and surprise surprise, when I connected it to iTunes for proceed with the initial setup, the following message arised
We're sorry, the iPad you connected is not recognized and cannot be activated for service.
We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information.
I've contacted with my local apple support, and they told me to try to reinstall the iPad entering in DFU mode. I did it twice, and both times the procedure went perfectly but once finished the above message appeared once again.
They have told me to send it once again for repair, but, someone knows how to resolve this ? I've sent my previous iPad ten days ago, and now, I will have to wait other ten and I'm a little bit dissapointed.
Well, thanks in advance and merry christmas for all of you.
julioThey should pay to overnight pickup and overnight delivery back to you since it's their screwup. Ask them!

I have lost the original remote for my Apple TV. I went to install it at my fiancés house, and cannot use the remote app on my ipad or iPhone. Can I still control the Apple TV with the apps?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen. -

i run os x 10.4.11 and cannot download itunes for my ipad? what OS do i need?
Which exact model iPad? It would almost certainly state system requirements on the packaging.
From http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/ the current model requires at least 10.5.8 -
I have Aperture 3 iinstalled and have used it for quite a while. Now when I try to open it a licensing window appears and wants the reg #. I copy it from the program on another comupter, yet it says that it's invalid. Any ideas?
Check this support article:
Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2005
Sometimes look-alike characters may be confused, also you may need to enter the previous registration numbers as well, if your Aperture version is an upgrade to Aperture 2 or 1.

What version of iWork are you trying to use? If you're not using iWork 9.3 in Mavericks, be sure to run Software Update before running any of the applications. You can also download the standalone updater from this page.

My problem is after i did a restore on my 32gb ipod touch i now get a error on itunes that says "There is a problem with your device,We're sorry the device you connected may be damaged and cannot be activated for service. " Please help
In the ipad discussion forums there apparently is a HUGE problem with people not being able to update to ios 4.3.3, it apparently locks up their devices and they are also getting the error "there is a problem with your device".... some are reporting the same problem with their ipod touch as well... it looks like it's a global issue
The forum is in the ipad section under the title of "There is a problem with your device".
I have dodged a bullet on this one since i have not updated my ipod's or ipad in the last couple of days.... i will hold off syncing to itunes until this issue is fixed... good luck, and spread the word if you can to get apple to listen -
