Works for some, but not all. As you might imagine, workarounds are not supported by Apple.

In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download. Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

The obvious way to resolve this on a computer would be to uninstall the app, then reinstall it, however on an iOS device that would cause all the data assoicated with the app to be thrown away.
Make sure your iTunes library has the latest updates for all your apps, then backup and restore the device. This should pull back a fresh copy of the app from your iTunes library and then give it the data from your device backup.

I just upgraded and lost my bookmarks, tool bar and tabs at thre bottom. Even the green bar is gone

I don't know any more details. I just want my computer back to where it was before upgrading firefox

If you do not like the new appearance of Firefox 4 then you can change some setting to restore the Firefox 3 appearance.
You can right click the orange Firefox button to open the toolbar context menu or use (F10) View > Toolbars.
* Click the Menu Bar entry to make the Menu Bar visible all the time.
* Click "Tabs on Top" to remove the check mark and place the Tab Bar at its original position just above the browser window.

The connection to our airport express says it has time out and lost connection?

the connecton to airport express say it has timed out and lost connection. can not hear music from airport express speakers. only the computer

What is your overall network configuration with the AirPort Express? That is, is the Express configured to join a wireless network provided by another router or is it your main router? If it is joining another router, what is the make & model of this router? Which model of the Express do you have? Finally, if you have another router, where is the Express located related to this router? Same room, different room, different floor?

Never synced before just upgraded and lost everything

Hi,
I tried upgrade my friend's phone on the another person's computer.
Successed.. Upgrading but I lost all contects and photos. I tried to back up and restore but i couldn't.
The phone i upgraded never synced before.
Is there anyway i can have photos and contacts back? Plz help me

This does not happen without ample warning. The first warning provided is the iPhone is associated with another iTunes library. This must be followed by manually selecting Sync Music under the Music tab or Sync Apps under the Apps tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on another computer and when doing so, a warning is provided indicating that doing so will erase all iTunes content on the iPhone first. This involves iTunes content on the iPhone only - everything on the iPhone is not erased with doing so.
Unless Sync Photos is selected under the Photos tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on another computer along with selecting photos on the computer's hard drive to be transferred to the iPhone followed by a sync, photos transferred from the computer the iPhone is normally synced with are not erased from the iPhone, nor are any photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll, which are not included with the iTunes sync process.
Unless Sync Contacts is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on another computer and a supported address book application on the computer is selected, contacts on the iPhone are not touched. The same for Safari bookmarks and calendar events.
The iPhone's backup does not include any iTunes content - no music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, or 3rd party apps, and the backup does not include any photos transferred from your computer. All iTunes content on the iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer - the computer the iPhone is normally synced with. All photos transferred from the computer the iPhone is normally synced with should remain on that computer as well.
Where is your husband's computer? Forget about his sister's computer. He needs his computer to restore all content on his iPhone as it was before.

HT5022 I just upgraded and lost my ability to configure my working 802.11g network via my older Airport Extreme!

I upgraded to Mavericks, so this comment may be out of place in this support community, but please understand that the above mentioned 5.6 version of the utility's support is dropped in Mavericks. I now need to purchase wireless networking gear in case my network needs to change at ALL. Otherwise, my Airport extreme is providing great service under its former, unchangable settings now.
I have no Macs running previous OSs, and no Windows machines here.

also have no Macs running any previous OSs and no Windows machines.
Chances are, you have friend who has one of the these devices who could spend the 5 minutes with you that you might need in the event that you needed to administer the older Express.
If that is not possible, then you are probably stuck if the Express needs some attention.

I have an iPhone 5 and I cannot connect to my airport express at home.

I've tried resetting the airport and everything. My first iPhone 5 would connect but I've since replaced it and the new one won't connect. Not sure what the issue is. Please help!

New logic board and now won't link to airport express

hi
I have a macbook which I bought in january, after 2 weeks I had various kernal panics and apple replaced the logic board. I picked it up yesterday and was using it at work on a wireless network all day, then I came home and tried to connect to my airport express and it wouldn't connect, it sees every other network in the building, but not mine (pre logic board replacement it connected fine). I reset the cable box, plus the airport express a couple of times but no luck, I then tried to connect my ibook and lo and behold it connects fine, I am on it at the moment.
I've restarted the macbook a few times, plus checked that airport is on, I've checked all my network connections, and they are fine. I've used airport setup assistant and admin utility, and it just can't see the express.
So does anyone have an idea how I can get my macbook to see my airport express?
I can find nothing wrong with it or the macbook.
thanks very much

Do you have access control (MAC address filtering) enabled on the AirPort Express (AX)? If so, you need to add the MAC address of the wireless interface of your MacBook.
Even better, disable access control. It offers no real security since the MAC addresses are easily discovered and cloned.

Problems connecting a second airport express to a stereo

Since I moved to 10.5 i lost my connection to an airport express which I had connected to a stereo.
I have an airport express base station which is working. How do I connect to the xpress at the stereo?

You need to set your main base station (the one connected to cable or DSL modem) up for WDS first otherwise there's nothing to search for when you set your remote and relay stations.
Make sure you have your base stations named so you can tell which one you are working with. I would unplug the second one when you set the first to help avoid this possible confusion.
Go to the WDS tab in Airport Admin Utility and turn on WDS. Set the base station as being the "main base station."
If you have your main base station working already this should be about all you need to set.
For the second base station, you should Turn on WDS but set it as a remote. Relay is only necessary if you want to "chain" stations together to reach more distant areas.
Click network tab and turn off distribute IP addresses if it is turned on. You do not need this as the main base station will take care of this. It should be turned on for the main station, but already is if it is working.
On the internet tab, you can leave configure using DHCP on, but you do have the option to set the addresses manually. I would recommend using DHCP until you are more familiar with how to set this.

HELP! I just got a 5S....synced to my computer....and lost the photos/videos that I took today before connecting to my computer that I need back! Is there any way to recover these?

If you took pictures and then set up your phone using a back up from an old phone, you have erased the pictures. If you emailed or texted them to someone, you may be able to get them back that way.
Best of luck.

I just upgraded to ITunes version 10.6.0.40 and now I am having trouble connecting to my Airport Express. I get error message 15000. I am connecting with an ethernet cable so it is not a wireless problem. Any ideas?

Sure...

I lost my connection with my AirPort Base Station when I upgraded to the OS Maverick. How can I get my system to recognize the base station again?

I lost my connection with my AirPort Base Station when I upgraded to the OS Maverick. I can still see the Internet, but the Time Machine cannot backup now because it cannot locate the AirPort base station. How can I resolve this issue?
Steps already taken with zero success:
1. Restarted the AirPort Base Station multiple times.
2. Restarted the Mac Pro multiple times.
3. Looked online for AirPort update for 6.3.2 version.
Other Apple products in my house can still see the AirPort Base Station, however my Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro cannot.
Please advise.

That information helps. If you want to use one of the SmartStor's disks as a repository for sharing your iTunes Library, then do not configure that disk as a RAID. Format it with Disk Utility using the Erase tab. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) is the correct choice.
Connect it to your Time Capsule, then use AirPort Utility to configure access requirements for sharing it on your network. It should appear as a shared volume in the Finder, available to all your Macs as you thought it should.
I also thought maybe the extra HD space would be added to the existing Airport Disk. It isn't.
Correct. There is no way to do that. The only way to increase the capacity of a Time Capsule's hard disk is to replace the Time Capsule (or its disk, if you are amenable to disassembling it) with a larger capacity model.
If you also want to use the SmartStor as a RAID, that is another story, and you should probably attack that problem separately.

I have an iPhone 4s in the UK with EE, I recently upgraded to iOS 8 and lost the ability to access cellular data.

I have an iPhone 4s in the UK with EE, I recently upgraded to iOS 8 and lost the ability to access cellular data.
I've upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 with no improvement.
I've reset network settings on both versions with no positive result.
I can't rollback to iOS 7 as apple has stopped signing the build.
I realise the 4s is fairly old tech but this experience has been quite time consuming and incredibly frustrating as I still haven't managed to resolve the issue. I had been holding back to upgrade to the new generation of iPhone but this experience and the negative press has made me seriously consider other options.

Here is what you can try,
Hold both the power and home buttons until the device powers off, may take 10sec. Let go of both as soon as screen goes black.
Open itunes on your computer and plug in your cable to the computer but NOT the phone.
Once itunes is open hold down the home button on phone and plug in cable and continue holding home button until you see the connect to iTunes logo on screen. iTunes will give a msg that a device has been detected in recovery mode. Now select restore and do not disconnect until you see your device in iTunes again.

I just updated iTunes to 11.4. No sooner done than I lost the connection to my Apple wireless keypad. Why? What can I do?

I updated iTunes to 11.4. No sooner had I done that, than I lost the connection to my wireless keyboard (Apple). Why? What can I do about it?
iMac, OSX 10.7.5
I inserted new batteries into the keyboard. That did not help. My Apple Keyboard connected by wire operates just fine.

Coincidental. Please follow Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues

Just purchased Airport Extreme ac and lost internet connection 3X. Reset to factory settings and worked for 2 days then lost connection and remedied by unplugging power supply. Anyone else having problems?

Just purchased Airport Extreme ac and lost internet connection 3X in less than one week. Fisrt time, reset to factory settings and fixed problem. Has occurred 2 additional times and connection re-established by unplugging AP extreme. Anyone else having these problems? Do I have a bad router? Thanks.

I definitely think this is a Mavericks issue. My iMac running Mavericks is the ONLY system in the house that drops the network randomly while all other systems never lose the network. No idea how to resolve this, but here is the workaround I'm posting:
I've had the 'network drop' issue with my Airport Extreme for the last 2 months. It reconnects when I pull the ethernet cable and plug it back in. I've tried downgrading the AE firmware, resetting to factory, etc. Nothing worked. I finally threw in the towel and created a script that monitors my network connectivity and restarts my interface if it senses it has dropped:
#!/bin/ksh
while true
do
yup=`ping -c1 -t2 www.google.com|grep from`
if [[ -n $yup ]]
     then echo "Internet is connected!"
else
        ifconfig en0 down; ifconfig en0 up
        echo "Down at `date +%m%d%Y%H%M%S`">>./dropped.out
fi
sleep 5
clear
done
I know its a workaround, but its saving me the headache of constantly pulling my cable and putting it back in!
Good luck!
