Help, please, with problem browsing Windows network since upgrade

I recently upgraded my MacBook from Leopard to Snow Leopard. Now I can't browse my home Windows network 90% of the time. None of the machines appear. Worked fine before. Anyone know how to fix what Apple broke?

Probably the easiest way to use an iPod on both Mac and Windows computers is to format the iPod (using iPod Updater) using the PC. This will force your iPod to use the Windows file system (FAT32) which both the Mac and PC can read from and write to without the help of additional software. Of course then all your software updates for the iPod will have to be done on Windows.  If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.

Problems with data using cellular network since upgrading to iOS8

I have an iPhone 5 and recently upgraded to iOS8. Since doing so, I am no longer able to use FaceTime and many other services (eg Snapchat, Apps Store, etc) when relying on the cellular network. I have not changed cellular carriers and it all worked fine with iOS7. What can I do?

Hi reader1961,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that issues with cellular data on your iPhone can be very frustrating. In this situation there are several troubleshooting steps that I would recommend to help you resolve the issue. Please refer to and use the attached article for troubleshooting steps and guidance.

Help please with ipods dock windows and mac based

Hello everyone,
I have an ipod but want to upload from two different locations. I found out from a reply from a previous question that I can do that but my problem seems to be that I have a windows based laptop at home but at my other location in my office I am using a Mac. From what I read I can not do this from one location to the other without reformating my ipod everytime which would be useless to me sense I do not have the same music or do all of my purchases from one location. Is this possible to upload from a windows and mac computer from two different locations or is this impossible? Thanks in advance!!!

Re installing ML will just install it overtop of your normal settings, it is not a clean install. having said that you should prepare by backing up your system.
The recovery partition is created when you install ML from MAS. (did you do that or do a clean install?)
there are two ways to get to the recovery partition and both ways are harmless if you don't have it.
one, directly to it by holding CMD+R while you hear the boot chime.
two, holding option down during the boot chime and selecting the recovery partition in the list of bootable drives.
once there, I would run disk utiltiy, verify and repair disks and permissions, and then I would run the reinstall Mountain Lion installer.

Browse windows networks with Thunar

Hi,
I am running xfce on arch linux, everything up to date I believe. I would like to be able to browse windows networks with the file manager (Thunar). I do not need to share files or even access password protected content. I am simply looking to be able to browse public folders. (Without having to mount anything manually)
I found some instructions for installing samba and fusesmb, but then found a note saying fusesmb doesn't work anymore. A search on that showed that most people seem to be using gigolo now, but there is no wiki page for it, and being a noob I am hesitant to try to mess with it on my own.
If someone could give me very precise instructions on how to do this (samba/gigolo or otherwise, I don't care about the method as long as it's not terribly difficult) I would be very grateful. Thanks!

Ok, I installed samba and smbnetfs and everything looks good, the workgroup shows up in the file manager now. However...
None of the windows computers show up.
I installed exactly as the wiki said, using gamin and smbnetfs but not SWAT. I changed the workgroup to the correct name. Some other setting I might have missed that it needs?

As I traced the http transactions, the updater downloaded https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/update/current/install/inline/win/x64/in stall_all_win_ax.z. On one hand, the 7MB file is unable to be opened via most zip utilities. On the other hand, the file seems to be for x64 platform and os per the url but mine is Windows XP. Is it a bug of Adobe?

Help please with FaceTime. The built in app seems to have disappeared from my iPad2. Bought it in Australia

Help please with FaceTime. My built in app seems to have disappeared.

If K Penguin's suggestion doesnt work, you will have to go to you iTunes and do a reset, that is if you do not have it in your back up library.

Can anyone help please with my Time Machine, I have been getting the following message The backup disk image "/Volumes/Mac Backup/Stephen Smith's iMac.sparsebundle" is already in use.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, for tv hook up.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, to hook up to tv for streaming. The display works through VGA but the audio isn't working. Got a plug that goes into headphone jack on computer and connects into the audio jack on the back of tv but no sound. I'm not quite sure what the issue is, whether its the wrong plug, the tv, or the computer. Best Buy says this is the right plug and it seems that it would be, but who knows. If anyone has any experience in this, I would appreciate the help!

Make sure those audio plugs are matched with the VGA plug. With your MacBook running something with audio switch between your sources on the TV Component, Composite and such. See if the sound is coming from another source. If so then you've got your audio plugs in the wrong jacks.
Also could you post the make and model number of your TV.
