Hi recently I received a popup MSG that iOS6 was available to download for my iPad. This also came with about 6 apps to download. However these Apps have now been installing for over two days, I have tried all sorts to try to stop or cancel them?
Thought I had already posted a question re frozen installing apps offered with new iOS6?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

I need a way to fix this without losing my photos. I have a iPhone 3GS
This happened to me, it took me 44 hours to restore my photos. I explained everything under a similar question just two days ago. Mine got stuck for six hours on 139 of 811 and again at different places the last was 8:00 last night at 800 of 811, finally completed at 4:00 am this morning. Keep it plugged in, close to your wi-fi, make sure you wi-fi in connected in settings . Keep it in the locked sleeping position and don't use it. Tell everyone not to text or call you for the next 24 hours. If you have to use it don't unplug it, text back or answer the call an then immediately lock it and let it sleeps. When you use it it stops the restore and has to start up again. Hope this helps

Hello there, SamanthaYikwai.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some basic steps to try for reinstalling an app:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
Reinstall the app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
Delete the app.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store and download the app again.
Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
If the download stops, you can resume it.
If the issue persists, then you may want to try and sync the application to your iOS device using your computer by following the information in this article, under the section "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC":
Download past purchases

My facebook app has been frozen in the "waiting" mode for over 2 hours, since I tried to do the updates...Can anyone help?
I would suggest uninstalling the app, if it is app that you install, or buy. I also think that you should try getting a ipod touch trouble shooting book.

Hi everyone! WE just got an ipod touch 8G. We do have wireless internet, but can't join the network with the ipod touch. Message comes up.."unable to join the network".....very frustrating!

Getting error 107 downloading after effects. Have tried all suggested solutions
Need assistance with downloading after effects trial as I keep getting error 107. Have tried all suggested solutions. Thanks
It isn't the installation of the Adobe Download Assistant which can cause this problem it is where you select to download the install files too. The Adobe Download Assistant would be installed to your Program Files/Applications folder and install files would be downloaded to your user folder, by default, or your desktop.
Alternately you can intitate a direct download by following the steps listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369. -
Got advised that a new version of iTunes was available for my HP PC running Vista. Upon downloading, wouldn't launch. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Wouldn't launch. Both error messages said that a file named MSVCR80.dll was missing. Any help in correcting this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I also posted this question and then Googled it. The instruction was to delete, in order iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, Apple Application Support and iCloud. Uninstall worked for all but apple Mobile Dvice Support and i Cloud. However, when I reloaded iTunes, it worked fine. I hope this is helpful. RobinVista

How do I fix a cd that did not download correctly. I have tried all of the above fixes, but the songs either stop halfway through, or won't play at all.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -

My iPad 2 has a hoe button that is not responding constantly. It will either work right away or not respond for up to an hour. I have tried all of the suggestions posted on other questions and it's becoming ridiculous. I have a warranty but am afraid that if I get another iPad 2 the problem will continue on the new one.

If your iPad is defective and is still under warranty, you can take it to an Apple Authorized Repair Center and get it fixed. If you are worried about a defective replacement, then a repair may be a better way to go. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
Personally, I would prefer getting a replacement. You read about many defects here in this forum, but they only represent a tiny percentage of all iPads sold.

Please help! Both wi-fi and 3g not working on my iphone 4. I have tried all that i thought to resolve it but to no avail. Its been 5 days now and i can't have internet access, whats the need of have a smart phone with no internet access, really frustrating! pls help.
It may be a hardware failure, but start here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
As hardware failures go, WiFi chip failure is a common one. 3G is completely separate, however. -
I recently purchased FaceTime from the Application Store. After approx. ±10 meg, the application resets and starts downloading again. I have tried to download it at different times of the day but with the same results. I have been in contact with Apple support and have tried different options with the same result. I cannot download a new Version because in my Purchased List the applicaiton (FaceTime) is still there, and because I have halted it it tells me to resume. I can’t, because the same thing is going to happen. I have tried all the various troubleshooting tips supplied by my ISP and also Apple Support with no luck. I am currently working on a IMac OS 10.6.7. Has anybody got any ideas? Any suggestion would help. Thanks

As I said, I tried everything what the manual says, but hard luck. I have taken an appointment for today, lets see what happens.
Also there is no activity on unit when I use the remote. The unit is stuck on the first page itself where we have to choose the language. The unit seems to be fine to me but the real problem is remote does'nt have activity. The IR is not responding while pressing any of the button.
Good luck with your appointment.
Not much consolation but even new products can have issues and might need a trip to a store to return/replace.
The reason i asked about the LED on the AppleTV is that occasionally it thinks it's paired with a specific remote and ignores others - the unpair keypress I described is quick and free.

I'll be posting all the details of this tomorrow.
So, I'm back, the OP.
As briefly as i can:
Two phone family, currently one smart, one dumb phone. The dumb is eligible for upgrade.
Call into V and spoke with "Anthony" to get info on what plan(s) I might consider as I upgrade the dump to a new iPhone 6. Currently an old "grandfathered in" Nationwide 700 plan. This was Friday Sept 19. Get some info, which I assumed to be correct, including the fact, his words not mine, that the "upgrade (device) fee" can be negotiable.
Before I had any first hand knowledge, I assumed that I'd better get a "second opinion" so I drove over to my local Verizon (corporate) store. Well, I got a different story, including the percentage of my employee discount on service, my employer gives a 20% discount and has for years, I have my current statement / bill in my hand. But no.... Verizon guy says that is wrong, its only 18%. I ask him about upgrade fee being negotiable. He says no, never. So what had I learned? That V guy on the phone from Friday was either lying or just ignorant.
Soooooo.... now its Tuesday, Sept 23. The "BIG" day, day of 3 hours 50 minutes on the phone with SEVEN different V people, all of them telling me something different about what plan(s) I'm eligible for, your employee discount is 17, no 18, no 20 percent. Yes we can negotiate an upgrade fee, no we can't... At one point, now a couple hrs into it I say I've had enough, I want to talk to a supervisor. "I'm sorry sir, supers can't come to the phone" WHAT? Well later, once I did speak to a first level supervisor and then a second level I of course found out that was wrong - more lies / misinformation? The supervisor took the name of that V CS rep and looked at my every growing call log and said that he would speak to the CS rep.
So, nearing the 3 hrs mark into my attempt to find out about plans and buy an upgraded phone for my plan I reach "Brian". I have his direct number. Apparently he is something more important that the past 6 people I've spoken to over the past thee hrs. I tell him: "EVERY SINGLE PERSON I've spoken to so far has told me something different, and or contradicted what the last person I've spoken to has said!!!!!" Yes you can have 2 single line plans, no you can't, to get this plan your upgrading device has to be on the "Edge" plan, no it doesn't, your employers discount applies to the bottom line, no it doesn't, only to the data, and on, and on, and on.
Sooooooo I tell Brian, "here's how its going to go... YOU are going to wave the upgrade fee. I don't care where the money comes from, V or right out of your pocket. I've been on the phone for now closing in on FOUR HOURS...."
Sooooo he agrees. I laugh and tell him, "You know, it has nothing to do with the money, not its all about screwing V as much as I can, and wasting yours and V's time."
He says, order your phone and plan this week and I'll call you Friday (today Sept 26) and then credit your account the fee.
Soooo yesterday (Sept 25) I call in to do just that, order the phone and plan, WHICH I was told really the only plan that would suit you would be a More Everything Plan. So, ok that's that.
I speak to a CS / Sales rep. I buy the phone and then we go on to the plan. I tell the rep THIS WHOLE LONG STORY, and it looks like we are heading towards the More Everything, BUT she says to me, "you know, you could do that Single Line plan for BOTH of your phones?" I say "WHAT????" I was told by two reps NO, and two reps "Well.... maybe". This plan gets me everything I want AND saves me $10 a mo.
Sooooo we go for that, BUT.... I can't change my plan (from current Nation Wide 700) to 2 two single line plans until I activate my new phone (which will be 4 weeks until I get it - iPhone 6), SOOOOO once it arrives I HAVE TO CALL BACK TO V and switch - how much fun will that be??? MORE time (hours?) with V.
So we agree.... The rep says I just have to transfer you to our automated system where you'll agree to terms and conditions.. Fine. Up comes the computer voice... and.... it says "hello.... you are upgrading your device (123) 555-1234 (it gives a real number), press 1 if this is correct." WHAT???? That is NOT the phone number of my device ***? The auto system gives me the option to press another number to "enter a different number", so I do, AND...... The call disconnects.
Now... If I could track down ANY ONE OF THE PAST 8 PEOPLE I'D SPOKEN TO OVER THE PAST TWO DAYS, YOU'D BE READING ABOUT ME - "Upset customer KILLS everyone at V". I AM SO ******* ****** OFF AT V... I'm now into 2 hrs today, plus the nearly 4 hrs the other day on the phone.
Soooooo.... I call back, have to tell the story again, this time to "Nick" in N.Y. Nick says just go on line to your account, you can accept the terms there. Well, what do you know.... It works, amazing.
But.... Nick says great and reads back the info on the phone I bought and says "...and I see you are on the More Everything Plan..." WHAT, STOP, STOP, STOP. I tell Nick, "Nope, I am not, I never agreed to that, I'm waiting, keeping my old plan for 4 weeks until I get the new phone, THEN I'm to call back (oh joy) to V and upgrade my plan"
Nick say's well you have the More Everything plan, and it is costing you $10 more a month, BUT I can't un-do it because there is a purchase (my phone) in progress... I am not BEYOND MAD. We are now at SIX HOURS TOTAL TIME ON THE ******* PHONE OVER TWO DAYS.
I ask to speak to Nick's supervisor. Melanie comes on the line. I, weather she wants to hear it or not, TELL HER THE ENTIRE STORY, that when (and GOD help him if he doesn't) Brian, the top end supervisor calls on Friday (today) to check on my experience buying the phone / upgrading the plan AND to credit my account the upgrade fee, I'm going to have to tell him about EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED TODAY and about the TWO MORE HOURS ON THE PHONE. Melanie says, yes you do now have a More Everything... All I can do sir is apply a credit back to your account for the difference in cost between your old (what was my current) and the new More Everything (the plan I NEVER agreed to be on).
So, that is where we are as of now, Friday Sept 26 AM. "Brain" said he'd be calling by noon-ish Pacific time. I've got his direct number, and If I don't here from him by noon, his phone will be ringing off the hook very 30 seconds until he picks up.
My experience to simply upgrade one of the two phones on my plan and the plan itself HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE. VERIZON is sooo SCREWED UP. NO TWO PEOPLE KNOW THE SAME INFO, and the INEPTITUDE displayed is sickening.
