    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.

  • I have a problem I can not up grade to the new AOL due to having a MAC 10.4. Now when I go on the site opens but when I finish one thing it tells me error message Offline Mode. What can i do it just shuts the internet down.

    When I open Firefox , and go to AOL.com it goes to the home page with a message to up grade. I have tried that it tells me I can not do it on my operating system MAC 10.4. Now when I sign on to Aol to use my favorites some time it lets me on, but if i write something e-mail or such it sends it them tells me error message Offline mode check off in file which I do, but it shuts down the internet. I cannot get back on.

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    It is a mute point now. PSE12 finally failed to the point it locked up the MAC. I had to restore the MAC OS from backup to a point before the PSE12 update.
    The MAC now operates correctly and so does PSE12. I don't think I'll be updating PSE any time soon.

  • What can be done to avoid getting the following error when trying to delete unused clips he operation could not be completed.  *** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil

    what can be done to avoid getting the following error when trying to delete unused clips in Imovie 09 "the operation could not be completed.  *** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil"  I use to get these type of error messages when trying to delete unsused clips from a large event 60 minutes or longer, but now I get this message when trying to reduce a 4 minute event.
    Also, does anyone know if there is a limit to the total amount of space that can be taken up by Projects in Imovie 09
    Thanks for any help

    Zachy,
    It goes something like this...
    Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
    Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem. However beginning over and over again and using other ports did not solve this unfortunately.
    Here is the SQL I used to setup the mirroring.
    * Principal DB
    CREATE ENDPOINT [MirroringEndpoint]
        AUTHORIZATION [DOMAIN\administrator]
        STATE=STARTED
        AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
        FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER, AUTHENTICATION = WINDOWS NEGOTIATE
    , ENCRYPTION = REQUIRED ALGORITHM RC4)
    BACKUP DATABASE TEST
        TO DISK = 'C:\full-backup.bak'
        WITH FORMAT
    BACKUP LOG TEST
        TO DISK = 'C:\log.bak'
    ALTER DATABASE TEST SET PARTNER ='tcp://sql2.domain.local:5022';
    * Mirroring DB
    CREATE ENDPOINT [MirroringEndpoint]
        AUTHORIZATION [DOMAIN\administrator]
        STATE=STARTED
        AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
        FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER, AUTHENTICATION = WINDOWS NEGOTIATE
    , ENCRYPTION = REQUIRED ALGORITHM RC4)
    RESTORE DATABASE TEST
        FROM DISK = 'C:\full-backup.bak'
        WITH NORECOVERY
    RESTORE LOG TEST
        FROM DISK = 'C:\log.bak'
        WITH FILE=1, NORECOVERY
    ALTER DATABASE TEST SET PARTNER ='tcp://sql1.domain.local:5022';
    The last statement on the principal server gives me the following error :
    Msg 1418, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    The server network address "tcp://sql2.domain.local:5022" can not be reached or does not exist. Check the network address name and that the ports for the local and remote endpoints are operational.
    From the principal server I'm able to ping the mirror server and can establish a telnet connection. When the statement gets executed even netstat gives me the following output :
    TCP    0.0.0.0:5022           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       1244  [sqlservr.exe]

    TCP    10.1.1.140:5022       10.1.1.110:1220       TIME_WAIT       0
    Is it normal so many ports get opened?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated (as this drives me crazy :-( )
    Found the problem eventually. The mirroring ran as the NT_AUTORITY user instead of DOMAIN\administrator.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    You appear to have a second generation iPod touch, not a third, and those can't be updated past 4.2.1. Apple sold 8GB second generation models at the same time as the third generation ones.

    Hello Tommy,
    The editing session should not time out for 24 hours for a normal login. The period is even longer if “remember me” was checked at login... And if the session timed out, you should have been prompted with the login dialog, not thrown an error.
    I've sent you a private message regarding further troubleshooting.

  • My iPod does not turn on and it is not recognized by my laptop in iTunes... What can I do?

    My iPod does not turn on and it is not recognized by my laptop in iTunes... What can I do?
    Model iPod 2 Touch, 8G, It stoped working less than a month after it was purchased but I never sent it back for repairs or warranty to Apple.. Is there still a way to repair it on my own. It just simply does not turn on or charge and it is not recognized by iTunes when I plug it in to my MacBook Pro.
    Please advise...

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The appointment is free.
