How can I tell Apple to store my MAC-address of my Wifi Router in there location DB?

Hello
Recently I bought a new Wifi Router and when I use the Maps App it tells that my ipad is located in China (Shangai)
When I also want to use the automatic timezone feature in the preferences app it indicates that my ipad is in China (Shangai)
I have already searched for a number of discussions (in and out the Apple Support) and their I found that the problem is in a location DB managed by Apple (crowd-sourced database). It seems that my Wifi Router is registered with a wrong location. :-(
my questions :
.- is the somebody that can give me a procedure (certified by Apple) how I can update this location DB?
.- How can I store my Wifi Router MAC address with the correct location in this DB?
Already thanks in advance
Kindly regards
P@nt@ni

HT1515 Just installed Airport Express on Mac 10.6.8 Can't see base station. Hard Reset the Airport. Rebooted machine. How can I tell if this is a Mac problem or Airport Express Problem?

I have a Mac 10.6.8. Just installed Airport Express. I can't see any base stations. I did a hard reset on the Airport Express, turned off all devices, turned them back on. I see plenty of Airport networks in the neighborhood. How can I tell if I have a Mac problem or an Airport Express problem? Airport Express blinks Amber.

Obviously, I'm still using ethernet to be able to reply to this.
Alright, use the same ethernet cable to plug directly into the airport express. This will FORCE the airport utility to now see it regardless of weak signals & interference. You can set it up that way.
BTW, what is the original intent on the express?

How can I connetct internet on my ipad mini (non cellular) without wifi ? is there any wifi adapter available ?

You can not connect to the internet with a WiFi only iPad without WiFi. You can get a mobile hot spot from your carrier but that still connects to the iPad via WiFi and comes with a monthly data plan like a cell phone.

How can I tell the app store to ignore my external hard drive?

I have a macbook pro, that was running 10.8.. I wanted to upgrade to Yosemite, but was very afraid I would regret it, so I got an external hard drive, made a bootable clone, and then installed yosemite onto that, upgraded XCode, etc-- made sure everything would actually work.. After I saw everything was relatively good and painless, I then went to install Yosemite on my main computer..
Whoops? Yosemite installer is gone? It self deletes? That is really annoying since it's a 5.8gb download... Anyway, I re-download it, format my MBP hard drive and install from scratch.
I then boot from my MBP-- and go to the app store to install XCode, and--- it just has "OPEN" as an option, not install.. When I click OPEN, it's opening it off my external hard drive. WHAT?
So I unmount my external hard drive.. Click install.. remount my external hard drive, it goes along downloading the multi-gigabyte XCode file... I continue copying the various needed files from my bootable clone to my MBP... Two hours later, the download finishes... Guess what? No XCode in my Applications.
Apparently when I remounted my external drive, it decided "I already have XCode! no need for this!", and discarded the download?????
... Anyway, needless to say, this is ridiculously annoying. Is there a way to tell the app store to NOT look at anything except my internal HD?

Check the date & version of the external Xcode. If that is current drag it to the Apps folder, eject the external & run Xcode. It should update if it has any available.
I don't know what would have caused it to abort or remove the download. It's possible it installed into your user folder, check for the Applications folder in there.
Does the store list it as installed with & without the external connected?

How can I inform apple about my stolen Mac Book Pro?

I want to inform apple about my stolen Macbook Pro so that if they try to register it we can trace the computer. But apparently there is no reporting system. Is there another solution, an adress to write an e-mail?

... well you answered your own queston. there is no reporting system..Apple doesn't track stolen equipment.. perhaps you bought Lojackforlaptops or turned on Find my Mac.. if you are at a college, you might want to ask your IT department if they can look for your IT via Mac's "MAC" address if you know it.

HT2471 How can I tell if my g5 power mac quad(2006) uses PCIe or PCIx cards?

Hello,
I am purchasing a Pro Tools HD8 system, and I need to know if my g5 uses PCIe or PCIx cards? How do I find this out?
Regards, Dean.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and check the model identifier. If it's PowerMac11,2, the computer has PCI Express slots. If not, they're PCI-X.

How Can I Tell if My iPad Air Replacement is New or Refurbished

I'm getting a replacement iPad Air because mine had a problem with it, there were loose magnets in it. I've heard that people have another person's data on apps they have just downloaded and that makes me really uncomfortable.
How can I tell if my replacement is brand new or just refurbished? Is there info in the serial/model number?
Thanks.

You might hear a lot of things on the Internet but that doesn't make them true.
If you got a refurbished iPad from Apple it would be completely empty.
Refurbished iPads are identified on the packaging.
You can see the model number in Settings > Genera l> About > Model. The model number has a two-letter code, a number and some more letters. The last part stands for the country/region. The first letter can be "F" (refurbished), "M" (normal retail), or "P" (personalized / engraved).

How can I tell which apps or programs are open at any time. At a recent visit to the Genius at my local Apple store, the "Genius" told me that too many apps or programs are running in the background. I'm using Mountain Lion on a McBook Pro

I was told that my Mac has to work extra hard because there are too many apps and/or programs open in the background. How can one tell what is open?? It must be something which is not normally visible to the user??
Hans

Thanks, I have looked at that several times but I can't detect any one item which would indicate overusage. The small chart (indicator bars) are much on the low side and the onse which show are basically green? Not sure what the person at the Genius Bar saw so I'm somewhat puzzled.

How can i reset my app store setting? i have signed in and out with my own apple id but i used a different one at first and that one is not going away

How can i reset my app store setting?
I have signed in and out with my own apple id but i used a different one at first a few years ago and that one is not going away how do i change it to my own apple id?

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID. Your only option is to delete the content and buy it again with the new Apple ID.

How can I access my App Store now I have changed my apple ID

How can I access my App Store now I have changed to a new apple ID?

That wasn't a very good idea. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another or merge Apple IDs. Not for anyone. All of the content that you got free or bought with the old ID is forever associated with that ID. You cannot redownload or update any of it without the old Apple ID.

How can I get my App Store sign in to match my newly updated Apple ID?

How can I get my App Store sign in to match my newly updated Apple ID?
The old ID is already grayed in the box for my ID and it does not allow me to type in my new ID.

I appreciate your effort and realize I did not provide a lot of background.
My issue began when I unintentionally managed to add an additional .com onto my new apple ID and the system then incorrectly verified this "none existent" address. Following days of effort and emails to Apple support I finally ended up getting set up with my new ID on iTunes.
The next problem was my App store login continued to have the "old" ID grayed into the signin and since I had changed it to a new ID, I could not login at the App Store.
I spent about 20 minutes on the phone with a total of 3 Apple reps without a resolution to me problem.
The last Apple rep, Chad wanted to be able to take a screen shot of what I was telling him, which made no sense to me but I was willing to do what ever was required to solve the problem. Unfortunately, Chad hung up or somehow disconnected before I received the email required for allowing a screenshot. After calling back and adding another 5+ minutes invested, I decided to attempt to change back to my old ID.
Once I had changed my ID back to the old one, I could download updates and purchases.
I realize my question was asking a lot but my hope was someone would have some idea as to how to correct the problem Apple Support could not. It seems to me Apple needs to make a correction on their end but it is now into week two of attempting to solve the problem and I am pretty much disenchanted with Apple Support due to the amount of time and effort already invested and lack of progress.
Thanks for your suggestion. I think it was a good one considering the lack of other information.

How can I tell if my 6Plus is unlocked. Bought from Apple carrier is Verizon

How can I tell if my 6Plus is unlocked? Purchased directly from Apple. Carrier is Verizon. TY!

The GSM side of that phone is unlocked. Borrow a nanoSIM from someone who uses T-Mobile or AT&T and you can prove it to yourself.

How can I tell Apple to store my MAC-address of my Wifi Router in there location DB?
