    Hi! I brought an iPhone 4 off my friend at work. The day I brought it, it was working fine but now I can't seem to send any messages or make phone calls. The network is showing up fine but each time I try to make a call it says "call failed" I can't seem to send any messages either? I can use the Internet fine and everything else on the phone. Can anyone help?

    Hi chelsinator,
    You can reset the phone and it won't cause any problems or cause you to lose any data - Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears.
    The other thing you should do is to reset your network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to set up your Wifi again, but that oftentimes clears things up.

  • Hi Forum, can u please help? iRecently bought a mac pro & my garageband 11 was working fine but now it's showing a question mark in the dock but it won't open. I think it may have been accidentally trashed. I've searched the trash & spotlighted. What now?

    Hi Forum, can u please help? iRecently bought a macbook pro and garageband 11 was working fine but now it's showing a question mark in the dock and it won't open. I think it may have been accidentally trashed. I've searched the trash and spotlighted but don't know what to do next. Any ideas? Thanks.

    How  did you install GarageBand on your Mac? Did it come preinstalled with the other iLife applications?
    If your MacOS supports the AppStore, you should be able to redownload GarageBand from the AppStore, see this support Article: OS X: About OS X Recovery on how to download again:
    Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

  • Siri was working fine but now is not.

    Have had my phone about two weeks.   Siri was working fine last night.  This morning it is not   Trying to use it to do an email - the microphone lights up and it appears as if it is recording - the little dots appear - but it does not write out what I said.  I have tried disabling siri and turning off phone and then turning back on and nothing helps   Very frustrating   Please help me

    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)
    Note: Nothing will be deleted.

  • I have an apple 2 for about 3 months and everything was working fine but now I can't access safari what can I do

    I have an apple2 for about 3 months and everything was fine,but now when I try to access safari it doesn't open what can I do

    Have you tried a "hard reset"? If so, I would take the phone to an Apple store. If not,
    1. Make sure the phone is OFF
    2. Hold the HOME button and then press the power button and HOLD IT.
    3. Hold both buttons until the phone comes ON, goes OFF and come ON again (about 45 seconds)
    4. Re-sync with iTunes.
    Hope this helps.

  • Hi my iPad mini was working fine but now is just a blank screen will not respond to any buttons or connect to I tunes

    My iPad mini was working fine then screen black and will not. Respond to any buttons or connect to iTunes

    Plug it into the wall charger an wait for at least 30 minutes.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • I purchased an iPod touch 5 64gb mint condition, it was working good but now I reset it and it's asking for the Apple ID of the original owner. Does anyone know how to bypass this so it works for me?

    I purchased an iPod Touch 5 64gb mint condition, it was working great but I reset it and now it's asking me for an Apple Id. Problem is it want the original owners & not mine. I would have no problem contacting the person I bought it off of but I no longer have their information since when it worked I deleted the emails!
    Does anyone know how to bypass this problem so that I can have the ipod work for me and my Apple ID?
    I would even take it to Apple if they could fix it, would they? and what might that cost me?
    Any suggestions would be great!!!!

    Nope. Only the previous owner can do that. See:

  • Computer was working fine, but now is having issues.

    I just got a new laptop last week, i installed Arch Linux correctly (UEFI) And everything has been running fine until today, i ran some updates and updated things like linux-headers and other things like that (Not 100% what all was updated at this time). I powered off my computer a few different times today, i had no issues, then about an hour ago i went to turn it on, it went through the grub menu successfully, then started checking blocks, then it shows a blank screen but the backlight screen is still on, ive rebooted at least 5 times to see if that would help with it, i also kept the battery out for about 30 minutes while having it unplugged, and now its been sitting on that screen for about 20 minutes.
    Not sure why this happened, it makes no sense, the HDD itself (1TB SATA) is fine, but nothing will boot, it pauses right where SystemD normally goes through the hardware check.
    Is this a known issue? What could have caused this?

    Ok so you guys were right on both parts, Linux Kernel did update (I thought just headers did, but i was wrong) And my Video card updated as well.

  • I export an ACCESS table to an existing Excel file. Seemed like it was working fine, but now I see that it DOES NOT clear the file first.

    Thus - if I transferred 10 records last time, and there are only 6 to transfer this time, it replaces records 1 thru 6 in Excel, but LEAVES records 7-10 in the Excel file ?? 

    When you export the access Table to an existing excel file ,you should get the message like the screenshot below:
    If you click 'Yes' ,a new workbook will created ,the problem you mentioned doesn't exist.
    Maybe you can try to export data within Excel. On the Data Tab->Click
    From Access->choose the database file, then when you update your database in Access, these data will updated automatically.

  • HT4623 I downloaded ios7 and initially it was working fine. Now it is flashing from my home screen to the white screen with the black apple every 3-5 seconds. It's so annoying and I can't make it stop! I tried shutting down all the way - nope! HELP!

    I downloaded ios7 on my iphone 5 yesterday. All day it worked fine, then last evening it started blinking from the white screen with the black apple to my home screen. Each screen only stays up for 3-5 seconds then switches back. I have tried shutting down and it is still happening! Does anyone know how to fix this issue without having to go into the store?

    Your power adapter is OK. If the only place it will not work is in your home, your house wiring and / or the appliances connected to it are likely to be the reason your Mac will not charge.
    From Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters:
    Identify line noise issues.
    Unplug the power adapter from the wall, let it sit for 60 seconds, then plug the adapter back in.
    If the adapter works after this 60-second "rest", you most likely have a line noise issue with your power source. You should reset the adapter periodically by repeating this moment of rest. This issue occurs when the AC adapter's "over voltage protection" feature senses ground noise and then turns off the adapter.
    Some possible sources of line noise include lights with ballasts, refrigerators, or mini-refrigerators that are on the same electrical circuit as your computer. This behavior may not occur if you plug the power adapter into an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or plug it into a different circuit.
    Unless the adapter continues to exhibit this behavior on a known good outlet, it does not need to be replaced.
    Household wiring problems are very common. They can also be very dangerous. Fortunately most problems can be easily fixed by a qualified electrician.

    My iphone 3GS pics are getting really blurry. At first it didn't happen. I`ve tryed cleaning the lens, but it didn`t work. What else should I try doing?

    I would call Apple tech support, which is excellent.  Or take the phone to your local Apple store - not AT&T or Verizon, as the Apple techs specialize in Apple products and are somewhat fanatical about them.
    Regarding the photos, they are probably still on the simm card in the phone and recoverable.  Check with the Apple folks to get them back... sorry about your pet!
