  • I have a regular PC and I am trying to get my Notes from my I Phone onto ICloud, but it will not allow me to.  Can someone help me? I just updated my phone after not doing it for a year and am new to I Cloud.  Can you all help me? Thanks.

    Hello. I would really appreciate anyone's help.  I just updated my I Phone.  I am not a tech savvy person, although I am a writer.  So, please understand. I just got an I Cloud account. I am about to get a new I Phone tomorrow and therefore, I need help.  I need to know how to back up notes on my computer.  It is not a MAC.  Can someone help me?  It will not allow me to.

    iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
    Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers

  • My iPod touch will not send e mail. Can someone help?

    My iPod touch will not send e mail. I have tried for months now and have no success. It connects to many different wifi networks with no problem it even receives e mail but it will not let me respond or send newly composed e mail.
    Can someone help me out?

    Hey,
    Who is providing the email account? Most email accounts provided by Internet Service Providers will only let you send emails when connected to the Internet over their connection.
    You can try entering your email address on the iPhone Mail Setup Assistant, if its a common provider the settings will be displayed.

  • I have money on my account but it will not let me purchase music can someone help? pls

    I have loaded an itunes gift card to my itunes account and it will not let me purchase any music can anyone help with this

    What exactly happens when you try to buy something ? If you've already removed the card from your account then iTunes shouldn't be asking for any details about it.
    If you log into into your account is the card still shown . On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
    Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

  • Have a CS2 script that will not run in CS3. Can someone help?

    I have a script that was written for me to find a certain paragraph style and replace the paragraph with an anchored text frame containing the text from the paragraph. I moved the script over to CS3 and updated the style names for my new document, but nothing happens when I try to run the script. I'll flow the script in after my opening post.

    //find paragraph style text and replace with text in anchored text frame
    myDoc = app.activeDocument
    myPstyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.itemByName("Teaching Tip");
    app.findPreferences = app.changePreferences = null;
    app.findPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = myPstyle;
    myFinds = myDoc.search("", false, false, undefined, {appliedParagraphStyle:myPstyle});
    for (var j = myFinds.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
    makeAnchor(myFinds[j]);
    if ((j > 0) && (j % 100 == 0)) {
    myDoc.save(myDoc.fullName);
    function getParentTextFlow(theTextRef) {
    // Returns reference to parent story or text of cell, as appropriate
    if (theTextRef.parent.constructor.name == "Cell") {
    return theTextRef.parent.texts[0];
    } else {
    return theTextRef.parentStory;
    function makeAnchor(theText) {
    // Transfers contents of theText into new anchored frame that replaces theText
    var myStory = getParentTextFlow(theText);
    var myAnchLocation = theText.insertionPoints[-2].index;
    var myTF = myStory.insertionPoints[myAncLocation].textFrames.add();
    myStory.recompose();
    makeInchWide(myTF);
    myTF.applyObjectStyle(myDoc.objectStyles.item("Teacher's Tip", true));
    theText.move(LocationOptions.atEnd, myTF.parentStory);
    myAnchStory = myTF.parentStory;
    theText.move(LocationOptions.atEnd, myAnchStory);
    myAnchStory.texts[0].appliedParagraphStyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.item("Teaching Tip");
    myTF.fit(FitOptions.frameToContent);
    makeInchWide(myTF);
    function makeInchWide(theObj) {
    // Makes theObj one inch wide
    //Save user's measurement preferences
    userHoriz = myDoc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits;
    userVert = myDoc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.inches;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.inches;
    var myBounds = theObj.geometricBounds;
    myBounds[3] = myBounds[1] + 3;
    theObj.geometricBounds = myBounds;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = userHoriz
    myDoc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = userVert

  • Hello, I have a Macbook pro retina-2013.  About Mavericks I could set my 4K monitor via HDMI on 2560x1440.  This I can not set at Yosemite. Can someone help me there?

    Hello, I have a Macbook pro retina-2013.  About Mavericks I could set my 4K monitor via HDMI on 2560x1440.  This I can not set at Yosemite. Can someone help me there?

    They really pushed that it would all work great! Has anyone had the same struggle? Are there any step-by-step instructions to get linked up?
    Call Verizon's wireless tech support & explain your problem to them.  They will provide "step-by-step" instructions over the phone. 
    Take notes too!
    TIP:  If you do call & don't want to go through all those darn promps, when you initially call, just don't say anything.  The automatic voice will then say,  "will connect you to a service rep."

  • IPad (Retina) on iOS 6.01 bought in UK and brought to Dubai, iMessage and Facetime activated and worked in the UK but now will not activate at all. Can anyone help...

    Hi
    I got an iPad (Retina) on iOS 6.01 as a gift in the UK and brought to Dubai.
    My Facetime/iMessage activated and worked in the UK just fine but now (even with VPN) will not activate at all.
    Can anyone help...

    Hi Bob
    With all due respect I think you are missing my point.
    I'm aware that on Apple devices bought in UAE these apps are blocked and theres nothing that can be done there. My device is bought in the UK so it has Facetime and it worked fine.
    I know categorically that iMessage works in Dubai without issue for almost everyong I know on an iPhone, I also know from seeing it that Facetime + VPN works as this gives your device a UK IP.
    My question is not the obtaining of these apps but why even with a VPN mine are not working when others in Dubai are?
    Thanks

    Try putting it into "Disk Mode" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Then with it in this mode connect it to the PC and try to run the latest iPod updater to do a restore and update software if you have the option. the latest iPod updater is 2006-03-23 and can be downloaded here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

  • After installing Mavericks my desktop font size is smaller ... not sure how to enlarge, can someone help?

    ... not sure how to enlarge, can someone help?

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
