If you're trying to connect to a Bonjour server on the remote network, that won't work over a layer 3 VPN. Use something like Hamachi or one of the SSH-tunnelling Bonjour proxy apps for that.

  • HT1386 I just got an iphone 4 and when I go to sync it, it appears in the left hand column but when I click on it there is just a blank screen with the apply logo and a tiny lock.

    I just got an iphone 4 and when I go to sync it, it appears in the left hand column but when I click on it there is just a blank screen with the apply logo and a tiny lock.

    OK, I think I fixed it.
    After trying to restore with an old backup from the phone (it estimated it would take 4 hours) I cancelled and went through the setup menus again, but set it up as a new phone. It then appeared in iTunes and I restored it from the computer, not the phone. It appears to be working, it's syncing my old apps right now.
    Summary:
    1. Reset settings on phone (hopefully you backed up fairly recently)
    2. Set up as NEW iPhone in setup menu on phone
    3. Restore from iTunes on computer when it recognizes the phone
    4. Cross fingers

    when i click on itunes store a message comes up with itunes stopped working

    Hey there Kezzleberry82,
    It sounds like you can open the iTunes application but when you click iTunes Store the application becomes unresponsive. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help troubleshoot the issue named:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Start with opening iTunes in Safe Mode, and continuing from there per the instructions here:
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    I have not been able to sync my mail with iCloud on my MacBookPro (Lion OS).  Everything else has been syncing fine for the past two months, but when I go to System Pref/iCloud/and try to check Mail, it asks me to choose an iCloud email address. When I put in my regular @me.com email, it says that address already exists (of course it does - it's mine!) and wants me to choose another one.  But I want it to sync with my stuff.  What can I do?  I haven't been able to find help anywhere online...  Thanks!

    You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

    How do I get albums and songs I have purchased back on my devices? They show up in my purchased list but when I click on them a little circle shows up with an x in it and it won't let me do anything with it. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    The Get Info. fields show up gray if the files is locked and iTunes knows it can't edit the file. Make sure the files are not marked as read only and, if necessary grant both your account and system full access to all files and subfolders of your media folder.
    You can set Part of a Compilation for multiple tracks from the Options tab of Get Info.
    See Grouping tracks into albums for tips on getting iTunes organized.

  • I have several albums in my library that I cannot get onto my device. I have tried manually adding the albums, but it doesn't work. I can view the albums in "Music," but when I click on "iPhone" they are gone. How can I transfer them over?

    Full question: I have several albums in my library that I cannot get onto my device. I have tried manually adding the albums, but it doesn't work. I can view the albums in "Music," but when I click on "iPhone" they are gone. How can I transfer them over?

  • I uploaded pictures from my camera then allowed iphoto to delete them from my camera. However, when I went to edit the pictures the thumbnails were viewable but when I clicked on the photos there was a triangle with an exclamation mark inside. Help!

    I also tried to upload the pictures onto my blog...but I couldn't click on the files as it seems they aren't there even though I can see the picture. The font of the file/picture name is grey instead of black indicating I am not allowed to click on it to open.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • I entered a wrong email address when I first set up my iPhone 5c, I successfully changed my Apple ID but when I try to download anything it still comes up with my old apple id

    I entered an invalid email when I first set up my iPhone 5s and forgot the password for the Apple ID. I managed to successfully change the Apple ID and password and validated it through email. However when I tried to download something from the App Store it still came up with my old apple id so I can't download anything. How can I fix this?

    It appears that you have apps that need updating that were pruchased from more than one account
    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • Keeps coming up that I need to update the FF 4.0 but when I click the update button & then the apply update button after the download it doesn't apply & just come back up to update firefox

    I have FireFox 4.0 it comes up and says that it needs to be updated, when I click the (NEXT) button & it does the contacting server/downloading the update. I click the apply update button & the fire fox window closes & the status bar come up with the installing the updates & will restart firefox in a moment. However once the window restarts, the notice that firefox needs to be updated come back. When I click the (next) button to download the update, the cycle begins.
    I clicked the HELP link at the top of the window & then the ABOUT FIREFOX to see if there might be multiple updates, but it's the same one each time "modzilla firefox yahoo edition yahoo 1.8"
    I love fire fox & until now have never had a problem when it comes to installing the updates.

    Well I went to the Tools/options/and general section & clicked on the restore default for the home page. However I am still having the same issue.

  • Trying to change the cache size of FF3.6 from 75meg to a larger size, it only applies on a per session basis. i check the about:config and the changes have applied but when i restart FF it has reset itself to 75 :(

    as per the question, tried to up the cache from 75meg to 300meg but it resets after i restart firefox, have tried to change to various cache sizes but to no avail.
    -=EDIT=-
    it must be something to do with the profile, as when i set up a new profile in the manager, the cache size problem no longer appears. but now, how to repair my profile

    ok, nothing in that text file helped but the original file that it was based on pointed me in the direction that it might be an extension. The only extensions i have are NoScript and FasterFox Lite version....
    I have now traced the fault to lie with FasterFox... if you are not familiar with fasterfox it speeds up internet connections in firefox... several of the options are presets... but when i selected custom it gave me the option of a cache setting, which was set to 75megs.
    I have now changed that cache setting in fasterfox to 300 Megs and it is now persistant in firefox on restart.
    hopefully this information will be helpful to other people in the future that suffer the same problem.
    Thanks for your help TonyE, its greatly appreciated

  • HT1277 Hi there,  From time to time all inbox messages just disappear.  Just then they disappeared when I  clicked on " get mail".  Yesterday they js=ust vanished?  Please help.  I have set up as Imap on laptop and iphone.

    HI,
    I have just set up mail and every now and then the entire inbox just vanishes.   This has happened 3 times in 2 days???  Any thoughts? 

    Mac HD says 2.49.72GB and 151.88 used??
    That's impossible. I think you mean to say that your HD capacity is 249.72 GB, and you've used 151.88 GB. You do have enough free space, so that means something else is going on to cause this problem.
    Aside from setting up the Gmail account(s), did you install or update anything just prior to this problem starting? If so, what were those items?
    I didn't mention any extension, so I'm assuming you're referring to seventy one's mention of TM (Time Machine). That is a built-in backup method that you can choose to take advantage of, but I would not do it, since it's not all it's cracked up to be. What you need is to setup and maintain every day a bootable backup of your entire hard drive. You can do that with SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner. You don't need an Airport device for these, nor Time Machine; in fact, I would shy away from using wireless for such things, as it's often more of a problem than a benefit.
    Also, there may be problems with your hard drive, so I would boot your Mac from the install disc, choose your language, then wait about 15 seconds for the menu bar at the top to appear and choose Utilities->Disk Utility and Repair Disk. If it comes back with any errors that can't be fixed, post them in your reply. But if not, then run Repair Permissions, and all you need to concern yourself with is the message at the end that 'Permission repair completed'; ignore anything else as long as you see that message.
    Then reboot your system and restart Mail and setup your account(s) again (assuming it's not there because you deleted the IMAP mail folder and the Envelope Index file. In the future, don't throw things away unless you know the consequences of doing so; you'll end up being unfortunately surprised when you lose critical information.
