HT201364 I got an iMac with OS 10.6.8. The download icon jumps to my dock and says downloading... but nothing happens! :-( Any help?
see description....
Less than an hour, you said that there is a download button showing in the App Store, in which Tab, Featured or Purchases?
And I assume that 16,000 means Kb/s (16Mb/s)

Got my ipad mini. It works perfectly fine until I updated to ios 6.0.2. Now I can't connect to wifi. I've tried every solutions offered in every forums and internet sites but nothing happened. Still ipad cannot connect to wifi. HELP!!!
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Trying to download itunes onto PC installed with windows vista. Download keeps getting to 99% with 1 second remaining and then freezes / does nothing? Any help appreciated.
I solved the problem! The updates orignally were downloaded to the C: drive of the server. I've since moved them to the E: drive and for some reason the Content folder in IIS didn't change the file path to the new WSUScontent folder.
The root cause for this was failing to use the UTILITY designed for this very purpose.
I edited the virtual directory settings in IIS and was able to put the correct path in.
You still need to use the UTILITY.. to fix all the other stuff you're still missing.
In the %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools folder...
WSUSUTIL MOVECONTENT E:\WSUS E:\WSUS\MoveContent.LOG -SKIPCOPY
This problem was caused by moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.
No. This problem was caused by IMPROPERLY moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.

I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem. -
I cannot download apps with the iPad, I touch the screen to either download or even to read about the app but nothing happens - any ideas?
thank you very much this has solved my problem and for that i am going to give you ten points.

The AirPrint from ipad2 to hp printer was working fine. All of a sudden the function no longer works! The ipad2 recognises the printer and even sends the print command. The printer centre say 'printing' but it remains syptuck in that position and no printing occurs. I've reset the wireless connections and deleted printing queues and reset the printter to original settings. The printer is found but nothing happens! Can anyone help out?
ccrobin I’m sorry your having this much trouble with this printer . Hopefully this step will fix your problem try a partial reset.
Ccrobin have you tried to connect a USB cord to the printer directly to the computer to see if it has the same issue?

Hi all,
I've been having issues with my iMac, particularly with the Office:Mac Suite. I took it to the Genius Bar and they confirmed there was some corruption and decided the best thing would be to transfer all my files to the external hard drive I had brought with me. After the transfer, they completely wiped all apps off the computer, then reloaded them. They then reloaded my data from the external hard drive back to the computer hard drive. I reloaded the Office mac 2008 Suite when I got home. Since then I have hooked up the external hard drive back to the computer (it's my time machine) and all is well, except, when I open any of the programs on the Office: Mac suite, I get the following message:
There is a problem with the Office database
Office might be unable to access the database or the database files might be damaged. Without the database, you might beunable to use the Address Book, Scrapbook. and other features that store your personal information
To rebuild the database, open Microsoft Office 2008/Office, and then open the Microsoft Databse Utility. For more information, open the Database Utility application, and on the Help menu, click Database Utility Help.
I did this and it gives me the option of rebuilding the DB but it gives no indication if there is danger of losing all my files. Does anybody else know what will happen? Is there another solution? Should I simply reload the Office: Mac suite again?
Help!
TamiCopy your DB to the internal hard drive and then run the rebuilder.
It might be the in the process of reinstalling Office the copy protection file was removed and thus you need to revalidate or something also.

I have a two problems with my new Ipad 2 operating system iOS 6.1.3
1) I can not syncronize with my itunes purchaces that I have on my mac book pro (operating system mountain lion)
2) When i purchase items from itunes store the downloads never finishes
I have tried starting and re-starting. Resetting the Ipad to original settings and non of this have worked. Any idea to what I should do?
Thanks a lot, JosephineThat's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it... -

Hi,
I'm having problems with my itunes syncing with my devices. I tried it with my old iphone 4 and now my iphone 5S.
When I plug the phone in, the computer recognises it as it starts to charge, but it doesn't get picked up by itunes.
I've tried repairing my itunes account, and deleting and reinstalling it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
LauraHi HILogics,

Hi - I'm trying to register for an iCloud account (I've just had a baby and am terrified I'm going to lose all my photos of him!) but when I try and register, it tells me it needs an email address so I go to edit my username and try and amend it so my email address and username are the same thing but nothing is happening. I keep going round in circles - can someone help?!
Where are you trying to amend your username?
It should be done at http://appleid.apple.com/ -
Please read title
Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

48 Hours ago I started to upgrade to Mountain Lion on a now 10 day old IMac - 30 minutes ago I got the email with the content code and redeem code for the download from the app store - it said download was happening, but nothing happened for 30 min - HOW DO I (or you) FIX IT!?
This is a User's Forum, yelling at us won't help. You have 90 days of customer support via telephone. Use them as they can interact with their system and hopefully get you back on track. Otherwise take it to them at the Genius Bar and have them make it good.

Recently got new iMac with Lion.....when I try to load my LogicPro software, I get 'OS does not support power PC'. Is there a download to fix or must I spend another 500 on software?
What version of Logic do you have?
And if you end up upgrading, it's only $199 now.
