hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?

I have never been able to upgrade my phone I always get an error message after it goes 2 hours on the computer someone told me I could do it wifi but I don't know where to go to start the download

Make sure you have the right system requirements before you start to update the iOS, you will need:
Apple ID (required for some features)
Internet access
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.5.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.5 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)

Haven't been able to make/receive calls or texts for a month

I've had no service on my phone for a month now and haven't been able to make or receive calls or texts. I've had my phone (iphone 4) for almost a year now, one day it was fine, the next it wasn't. It literally just happened over night. My sim card works fine in other phones so i know thats not the problem.
After an endless amount of phone calls to O2 and no solution to the problem, I've now been told that my phone isn't reading the sim card properly and my phone needs to be sent to Apple. I'd take it to a store but the nearest one is 45 miles away and I don't drive so it's not very easy to get to. Also, as i bought it from a different website and not from an apple store and don't have any proof of purchase or warranty, would they still be able to fix it for me?
I recently went to Spain and while I was there my phone worked perfectly and I could call and text as usual, but as soon as I got back to the UK it stopped working again which suggests to me that it's nothing to do with my phone, as it was able to read the sim card fine in another country. Would I achieve anything by getting it unlocked and changing to another network?
Has anybody encountered anything like this before or have any solutions to the problem? After a month of this i'm at my wits end!!

Thanks for the reply. I bought the phone on november the 1st 2011 and it has worked perfectly until the end of last month when it started saying 'no service', and no this didn't occur during an update or restore. I don't make many calls or send texts a lot so I don't know when exactly when it did happen but I know it was working on september the 28th and it wasn't on september the 30th, I didnt update, restore or anything. When I bought it, (cant remember exactly where i bought it but it was an online shop), it was sold as being on the O2 network.
I contacted the network and they said they could unlock it, so maybe i'll try it on the Orange network instead as I managed to use that without any problems in Spain.
Thank you for the answer to my other questions as well.

I am not able to access my Ipad as it says that icloud has not been backed up and it does not accept when i click ok

i am not able access my ipad as it says that the icloud has not been backed up. it also does not accept when i click ok.

Try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
When it's rebooted you can force a backup via Settings > iCloud

Ever since Firefox 3, I have never been able to upgrade easily. I always get a message telling me I am replacing my version with an older version. How is that possible?

When I download the newest version (this time it was 5, but I had the same problem with 4) and I drag the Firefox Logo to my Applications folder in Mac OSX (10.6.7) I get a message saying I am replacing my version with an OLDER VERSION. How can this be? When I check the Firefox "About" tab, it tells me I am still using 4, so how, if I just dragged 5 to my Applications folder, can I be replacing 4 with an "older" version? Truth be told, my Firefox has never functioned properly since 4, and now I have little "Firefox hard drive icons" all over my desktop. What happened?
I am having trouble with Comcast's XFINITY and they told me to update and maximize my browser. I don't seem to be able to do that. I just downloaded Firefox 5.0, but my version still says 4.1.

My iphone 3 speaker will not play, it is not in airplane mode,. I have rebooted it. I cannot make a call or recieve one because I cannot hear anyone unless they are on speaker, it says my ipod is stuck in headphones mode for the volume,..it isnt the headp

Please help me, and tell me if this is a hardware issue and I am required to take my phone in to the store to get a new one?

Oh wow, I forgot how narrow minded people can be. No its not the jailbreak causing it. The problem existed well before the jailbreak, and there are many other people with unjailbroken phones with the exact same audio problem. But. i removed the jailbreak, just for.you. guess what... It's.still doing it. Now would someone be willing to help me out? And don't bother to.suggest restoring it . Been there done that, didn't do anything except waste my time.

I used to be able to have several identical copies of Firefox open at once - not any more: they are significantly different and not useable Why??

Since installing version 5, I am now unable to have multiple versions of firefox open at once. The original format is ok but other copies are different
I have taken screen prints but cannot see how to send them to you

You can't attach images to the first post in a thread, but you can attach screenshot images to sub sequent posts in a thread.
Do you mean opening extra windows via Firefox > New Tab > New Window (Ctrl+N) ?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Never been able to view bill online: "Sorry! We're...

Hi everyone,
Has anyone ever been stuck with the following message when logged into the bill section of MyBT for any length of time:
"Sorry! We're not able to show your bill and usage details at the moment as the website is undergoing maintenance. Please try again later."
Since the account was created in June 2013 I have never been able to view the bill. The information for the "My Products" is also incorrect, it shows I only have unlimited weekend calls, even though I upgraded over the phone to free evenings in June 2013. However, I did recently have TV added, and this has shown up as a "product".
Before people start thinking this could be a problem at my end, please understand the following: I have another BT account on the same user login, so I can switch between them using the dropdown box and the bill for the other account shows just fine. I have also tried logging in on different computers, on different browsers. I have even gone as far as to create new login's and add my BT account to them, but to no avail.
I do currently have a ticket open for this but it's been open since mid July! I have shown them screen shots, etc, but they seem unable to do anything which deviates from a simple flowchart. I have been on the phone to BT for hours, which usually ends with the other person demanding I hang up as they cannot sort the problem (I.E. They have no actual problem solving knowledge) and if they don't end the call it will look bad on their metrics!
Wow, so if BT cannot solve it, they hang up. This was after the usual "We have reset your line, please wait 24 hours for it to stabilise.", as if this could magically make my bill appear.
It's a really worry that I have been unable to see what BT are charging me for, there have been a number of other big issues which have mainly been dealt with (E.G. BT creating new accounts for me rather than move my account to new house, double-charging line rental saver, etc). So I have no idea if I am currently being charged the correct amount.
For reference, I have attached a photo of my account below:

Perhaps one of the hits returned on a google search "setting up iis server" will help: https://www.google.com/search?q=setting+up+iis+server&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozil la:en-US:official&client=firefox-a.
I sympathize, as I had a lot of trouble trying to set up a localhost server on a Win8 computer. Experienced many false starts. Finally got it working to the extent I could actually work on a WP site locally, but the set up is still weird in that when I uploaded all the new files to make them live, nothing updated. Ended up making all the changes again to the live site.

Cannot and have never been able to connect to a testing server

Hello
I am using Dreamweaver and am trying to set up a testing site using IIS. I can’t get it set up. It says I don’t have administrative privileges. I am the administrator. This is a home computer and I am the only user of the computer. I am just a novice.
I posted my problem in an Adobe forum. I was told to enter a command in the administrator command because I am not an administrator (this made me scratch my head???). The following is what I was told to enter:
icacls %systemdrive%\inetpub /grant %userdomain%\%username%:(OI)(CI)(F) /grant %userdomain%\%username%:F
it does not work and says there is no command for” icasis” I am not sure what I need to enter, however. For system drive I put “C”. For user name I put the name of my computer. For user name I put my user name.
This is what I ended up with and this is what I put in the administrators command prompt:
icacls %C%\inetpub /grant %Joe-II%\%jtb%:(OI)(CI)(F) /grant %Joe-II%\%jtb%:F
I am sure this is wrong.
In addition, in properties of inetpub wwwroot it says I have read and write for both administrator and iis_iusrs privilages (I set it up following a DW tutorial).
So why can’t I set up testing server on iis? This problem has gone on for years. I have newer versions of Adobe and operating systems and I have never been able to set up a testing server. By the way, this is windows 8 professional.
Any help would be much appreciated. I would even pay someone to solve my problem but don’t know where I would go to do this.

<< Response was:
Hello,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues.
From the information you have provided, it would appear that your issue is based somewhere in the user account permissions configuration on your PC.
I recommend taking the following steps to ensure your user account has administrative permissions:
Open your "Start" menu and right click on "Computer" (or "My Computer" depending on your version of Windows).
Select "Manage".
In the new window titled "Computer Management", select "Local Users and Groups" under "System Tools".
Select the folder labeled "Users" and find your user account in the right panel.
Right click on your user name and select "properties".
Select the "Member of" tab and verify that you see "Administrators."
If not, you can select "Add" and then type "Administrators" in the field labeled "Enter the object names to select".
Please update us with the results once you've followed these instructions and we can troubleshoot based on that further information.
Be sure to let us know of any error messages or pop up windows you encounter.

My response: I did what you asked and I am listed as an Administrator or do see Administrators there. Thank you for your response. Hopefully you can trouble shoot from what I have replied.
Again, this has been going on for so long. I would even bee willing to pay to have this problem cleared up. Again, thanks.

HT5661 i have an iphone 3 i am selling .. if i go to erase all content and settings .. will the apps still be on the phone .. i've never been able to add apps to this phone and don't want to lose them

how do i prepare my iphone 3 to sell ..
i've never been able to download new apps so i don't want to lose the apps that are on there
am i to reset all settings? or erase all content and settings? or reset network settings?

Only the apps that are part of iOS will remain on the phone.
If you're going to sell it, use "Erase All Content and Settings".
If you're selling it, what difference does it make to you if the apps get erased? You don't have the legal right to transfer any apps you bought to anyone else. Not to mention the fact that you stated you have never been able to download new apps...
Why don't you just re-post the question in your native language. There are so many contradictions in your post that i don't believe you're conveying the questions you think you are.

Never been able to use browser or email

I have had my Kin TwoM for 2 weeks now and have never been able to connect via WIFI. The phone will not detect my home router so I cannot connect that way. In a WIFI hotspot I try and connect and it says cannot connect or no WIFI found (even though I know there is). I know the WIFI works because everyone around me is using it.
The one time (out of about 100) that the phone said it was actually connected, I tried both the browser and to sync my gmail and neither worked. Both kept running the trying to connect bar and never connected.
Not having a data plan and using WIFI was the major reason for getting this phone. Any suggestions?

Please make sure you have taken the following steps:
1. From the Home screen, select Settings.
2. Select Wireless Controls.
3. Select WiFi.
4. Select an available WiFi network.
5. If prompted, enter the appropriate password then select connect.
If you have taken these steps please PM me and we can troubleshoot further.
Thank you.

6267 Never been able to use the UMTS features ?

Hi
I have tried with several (3G) providers, but never been able to use the phones UMTS, any ideas to what could be wrong?
Thanks
Michael

OK, that makes the "fake Nokia" solution less likely.
Have you had your current SIM for a long time? Some of those that are more than, say, 3 or 4 years old don't allow access to 3G services. Or the SIM could be defective anyway.
I believe you said or implied that your phone was unlocked, so you need to see if other people who are already using 3G services with their SIM cards can also do so with your phone. You also need to try your SIM in their phones (if they are unlocked). That should point clearly to the culprit. If other people's SIMs work in your phone and your SIM doesn't in their's then your SIM needs replacing. OTOH, if other people's SIMs don't work in your phone and yours does in their phones, then your phone is the cause.

I have adobe premiere element 9. I have never been able to upload a clear video to youtube, always a pixel mess. the video is great before, crap once downloaded. I never found anyone to help me...Thanks in advance

Hello, I have adobe premiere element 9. I have never been able to upload a clear video to youtube. Great before, a pixel mess once uploaded. I have try all the different set up, some are a bit better but far from being nice to watch. I have a gopro, movie are taken in HD and a fairly new panasanic video, also HD. If I upload straight from the gopro movie (not using adobe) the video is great on youtube. I try to save the finished video (from adobe) on my computer, then upload it (not using adobe) still a pixel mess. I am not an expert but I have seen some nice and clear video on youtube and I would love to be able to do the same. I recently downloaded "handbrake" and make my finished video through it...still a pixel mess. I am not sure what to do, something maybe with my set up, the rendering....I have no idea.....
Any help will be very appreciated
Thanks in advance

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9 running on?
Pick a video source and let us stick with it through the troubleshooting.
What are the properties of the source file
Video Compression
Audio Compression
Frame Size
Frame Rate
Interlaced or Progressive
File Extension
Pixel Aspect Ratio
Duration
What have you been setting as the project preset for this video?
What is the file size and duration of this upload to YouTube from within the Premiere Elements project?
If you export the Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and then upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site, what are
all the Premiere Elements export settings for the saving of the file for uploading later to YouTube?
That is a lot to be asking. But the answers will be in the details.
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next to solve this issue.
Thanks.
