You are not addressing Apple here at all.

  • HT4623 while updating to ios6 my phone stopped mid way and will not continue or come on its only showing the apple logo. Anyone else having this problem

    While downloading iOS6 my phone stopped mid stream now its stuck on the apple logo and wont turn off or on or do anything. Is anyone else having this problem

    If your iPhone is listed in iTunes, click Restore on the Overview page and follow the instructions on screen.
    Should iTunes not detect your iPhone, try the following:
    Turn the device completely off and remove the USB cable from your iPhone while keeping the other end of the cable plugged into your computer.
    Now take your phone and press the home button.
    While you keep the Home button pressed, reconnect the USB cable to your iPhone
    Continue pressing the home button until the "Connect to iTunes" logo appears on your iPhone
    Now follow the instructions on your screen to restore your iPhone

  • When I update a recurring event on my iPhone, it does not make changes to the calendar in ical or icloud.  Is anyone else having this issue?

    Updating a recurring event on my iPhone does not update the event in either ical or icloud.  If I add a new event on the iPhone it updates right away.  Is this a known problem?  Should I get rid of the recurring event and just make changes day to day manually?  I like having the recurring event set for my work schedule because it rarely changes, but when it does, I'd like to use my iPhone for the updates instead of carrying around my MAC Book all the time.
    Thank you!

    After connecting to iTunes, I noticed that "Back up to iCloud" was selected (in the middle of the screen on the "Summary" tab, under "Backup"), and "Last backed up to iCloud" reflected the time that I attempted to back up from my phone. Even now, the phone still says "Last Backup: Never," so there is clearly a disconnect. Hopefully Apple will fix this soon.

    After upgrade to Yosemite my MacBook Air does not switch automaticly from wifi to ethernet. How to sloven problem?

    Have you tried changing the order in Network Preferences pane?
    Open System Preferences/Networks/Click the gear symbol under the service list. Select set service order then drag. If your wifi is above the ethernet move the ethernet to the top. Click ok. Click apply (bottom left) and test.
    Hope this helps

  • I am walking through Apples tutorial getting started with iOS development. I am at the storyboard area and can't seem to drag the cancel button to the green exit. I am not sure why the exit button doesn't except it. Is anyone else having this issue?

    I am walking through Apples tutorial getting started with iOS development. I am at the storyboard area and can't seem to drag the cancel button to the green exit. I am not sure why the exit button doesn't except it. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a work around? I have done this app twice and still cant get the exit to except the Cancel or Done  bar buttons

    Yes I checked it.  As far as I can see I did everything Apple said to do.  I took some screen shot so you can see how the screens are connected and what and where the code is, and what it does when I drag the cancel and done bar buttons to the exit

  • My MacBook Pro (purchased in 2011) is taking 10 minutes to boot-up.  It's also taking much longer to open files.  I have 650 GB out of 700 GB left on my machine so it's not that I've overloaded the memory.  Is anyone else having this problem?

    Look at this comprehensive trouble shooting document;

    I suggest that you start with SMC and PRAM resets.
    Then  a Safe Boot.

  • I updated my iPad Air to the newest ios 7 update. Since then, I can not turn wifi on in the settings and bluetooth constantly has a spinning gear in the settings. Anyone else having this problem or know of a solution?

    After updating to ios 7.0.4, my ipad air will not allow me to turn on the wifi in the settings, and the bluetooth constantly shows a spinning gear in the settings. I'm currently trying to restore factory settings on the ipad for the second time. Powering off did not help. Anyone else having this problem or know of a solution?

    I was going to suggest - Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings, but if you are restoring to factory settings, that should restore the settings back to factory defaults. But if you are restoring from a backup, after restoring to factory settings, try resetting all of the settings and see if that fixes it.
    It might be something in your backup.

  • Purchased my computer just before new ones came out in Oct. It runs slow and shows Gray screen sometimes when I open it. Anyone else having this problem?

    I have a new but 2010 model. It operates very slow and has gray screen occassionaly. One store said it's "safe sleep", the other graphic board. Is anyone else having this problem with computer only 4 mos. old?

    Your problems may be caused by software or hardware, including the gray screen and the slowness.  The intermittent gray screen is a puzzler and probably is hardware.   TUSL2C’s diagnosis may be right on the money.  A question is how to isolate it to HW or SW that so you can get good service? 
    The obvious cheap and easy fix is to replace that cable but I don’t think you can do that  because it is under warranty.  There are other ways to isolate the problem that won’t void the warranty.
    If the disk turns out to be healthy and it continues to boot to a gray screen then that will be a sign that internal hardware, other than the disk, is to blame.  Since they are blaming it on software we will be able to test it with a pristine OS X installation that has no 3rd-party software to blame.
    > They are calling it "Safe Sleep Mode" and that happens if I don't use the machine within 4 hours.
    The machine should go to sleep and wake up almost instantly every time without a gray screen.  If you can demonstrate the problem reliably by putting it to sleep and waking it up then that will be most useful.  We will show it failing on pristine OS X software without 3rd-party mods to prove it is an Apple problem.  Similarly if you can reliably show the gray screen from a power-on boot that will help.
    My first question is do you have a current Time Machine (or other) backup?  If not you should create one before we get to steps that could stress the disk.  If it is a faulty cable or a faulty disk then the system could stop functioning at any time.  It is always prudent to maintain a current backup and especially important when the system is sick.  If you do not have a Time Machine (or other) backup then post back for instructions on how to create one.
    In the mean time please download and run Etrecheck and post back the results.
    http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
    This will indicate possible software compatibles and other details that may be helpful in a diagnosis.
    Also run disk diagnostics with Disk Utility.  This will check if the disk and filesystem are healthy.
    From the Finder, pull down on the Go menu to Utilities.  This will open the Applications > Utilities folder.
    Then run Disk Utility.
    Click on the upper left disk icon.
    Does the S.M.A.R.T. status say “Verified”.
              If not the disk/SSD is unhealthy and needs to be replaced.
    Click on the icon indented below, usually called “Macintosh HD”.
    Verify Disk.
    If it finishes with a green “OK” message then all is well with the disk.
    If it shows errors in red then you may have found a problem.
    Click on Repair Disk Permissions.
    It will give lots of messages in black and white, which are OK.
    If it gives any messages in red then there is an issue to address.
    It will be useful to have some test that shows the slow speed that uses standard OS X applications such as Pages, Numbers, Presenter, iTunes, iMovie... or even just the Finder opening windows or starting applications.  We can then use that test when isolating the source of the slowness.
    How many seconds does it take to boot from power-on to either the login screen or the Finder is up?  Please time that.  It is a good speed test.  If it is over a minute then something is wrong.
    One way to isolate the issues will be to sandbox it using another disk to test what happens with different software on different hardware disks in different locations.  That will not void the warranty.
    But before going there or proceeding further let’s look at the Etrecheck and Disk Utility results, ensure the system is backed up, and then try some other standard tests.

  • My iphone 4s voice dictation for text messages is not consistently working. Sometimes it works, other times after the dictation it just gives me a blank space. Anyone else having this problem?

    My iphone 4s voice dictiation for text messages is not consistently working. I've had the phone since Thanksgiving and it always worked perfectly, but the last few weeks it's been hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Anyone else having this problem? I tried the hard reset but that hasn't fixed it.

    I have the same problem since updating to IOS 8.3. Any app to which I want to send a new link via IMessage does not allow me to select a contact to send the IMessage to. Using a pre-existing thread does not have same problem.

  • IPad with IOS 7 is suddenly unstable and crashes many times in a day. Had been very stable until 2 days ago no new apps added. Problem is worse on iPad 3 than on iPad 2. Anyone else having this problem? Possible answers or solutions?

    Two days ago my iPad 3 and IPad 2 started to crash very unexpectedly. Both iPads have wifi and cellular and both are running iOS 7.0.2. I will be working and suddenly the screen just wipes to black and then the big white Apple appears as if I have done a hard reset. The iPads always come back, but the crashes and unexpected app closures are happening with greater frequency. It happens more with the iPad 3 than with the iPad 2. Until two day ago both iPads had been very stable.  I don't keep a lot of apps open and I have plenty of GB of free space. I do hard resets after each event, doesn't help the situation. Did Apple do some kind of update to the OS in the last few days? I was just getting used to the new OS and this is very frustrating. Anyone else having this problem, have a possible answer or solution? Thanks for your help.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • HT3310 Can't get remote and mic to work at all with my iPad. Anyone else having this problem?

    Can't get EarPods remote and mic to work with my iPad 3. Anyone else having this problem and, if so, how did they fix it?

    I am trying to get my USB headphone and mic to work with Skype but I'm not having any success. I have tried several different headphones with the same result.
    What are the system requirements of your headphones & mics?  It's possible they are not compatible w/Macs and/or your current OS system.
