HT4901 My iPad was stolen. It is password protected and I locked it. So far no one has tried to turn it on. I would like to erase the content but am afraid that the "Find it' software would be diabled too. Can someone tell me if this is what happens?

If content is erased, then the ipad will no longer have  the Find My iPhone service turned on, hence can't be tracked.  But the thief will not be able to view your data/apps.  But thieves these days know about the service and can reset the device so that it is no longer tracked, although all data is erased anyway.  They don't care about getting at your data, only about keeping the device to sell or use it as their own.

  • Most of the time I get The Connection Was Reset. Can someone tell me why this happens?

    When I click on Firefox or when browsing or going from one site to the other I get "The connection was reset" then have to click on Try Again.
    Can someone tell me why this is happening?
    Thank you.
    THE CONNECTION WAS RESET again this morning. I even get this message when I click on the Firefox Icon to get on the net. When for example I download something then it returns me to their site I get The Connection Was Reset. When I uninstall a program and it sends to to their site in order to answer as to why I am uninstalling their program then I get The Connection Was Reset.
    Every time this happens I have to click on Try Again and find this to be annoying.
    This does not happen once or twice a week, it happen ALL THE TIME.
    This morning I went to Safe Mode and followed the instructions on INTERRUPTED OR RESET CONNECTION which tells us what to do but this did not work either.
    Would be great if someone was able to let me know what to do in order to prevent this message appearing all the time.

    Do not know how to delete this reply. I replied instead of editing my question. I have edited the above now.

  • Several times I've downloaded albums from iTunes to find that some of the tracks did not get fully downloaded so that the track with skip to the next one. Can someone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it?

    Several times I've downloaded an album from iTunes to find that not all of the tracks were fully downloaded so that some of the tracks will skip to the next one (instead of finishing the song). Can anyone tell me why this happens and how I can fix it?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies.
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • My PC crashed and I would like to remove some photos off my iPhone that are no longer on my computer.  How can I remove the photos?

    My laptop crashed.  This laptop housed photos that are on my iPhone.  I would like to delete them off my phone completely how can I do this if the computer crashed?

    When viewing the photo's (in the Photo App on iOS) a tab bar to change picture will appear at the bottom, one of the buttons is a trash can and simply press that. The tab will dissapear after a while of viewing the picture so if it is not there then tap anywhere on the picture for it to come up.

  • TS4036 My initial backup to iCloud  for my iPhone 3G is taking so long. I would like to use my phone, but am afraid to stop the backup process. Going on 16 hours.

    My backup to iCloud seems to be taking so long, I don't even have any confidence that it is working. Going on 16 hours. I want to use my phone, but it says if I stop it will return my phone to initial state. Do I lose all my apps?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

  • I finally was able to download and install mountain lion on my macbook pro. Within minutes, I received an email saying my iCloud account was accessed by my apple id. I unchecked the icloud box during the iTunes setup. Can someone tell me if this is a ha

    After months of failed attempts, I finally got mountain lion loaded on my macbook pro. Shortly thereafter I received an email saying my id had been used to access icloud.  During the setup process, I unchecked the icloud box so I am not sure whether this is normal or has someone else using icloud with my id. I am pretty sure that I did not select iclout  for set up.

    Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

  • HT4623 I update my new iphone with the data of my old iphone.  Now every email is post twice.  Can someone tell me how to correct that from happening?

    I purchase a new iphone.  I backed up my old iphone and moved the data to my new iphone.  My new iphone shows my emails twice every time a new email comes up.  How can I correct this issue?

    Just to make sure - You're saying you had backed up your iPhone 4. When you plug in the 3GS, and try to "restore" the data from the iPhone 4 backup onto the 3GS, you get that error? Check to see if the iOS version is up-to-date, and hopefully it isn't. It might also be because your iPhone 4 wasn't, and is causing some sort of problem.
    Good luck!

    Sounds fine to me. However - the price is rather high. Pricegrabber shows the same product for $125-140 along with lower shipping rates.

  • Can someone tell me why this is not setting the session variable?

    You need to set the session variable first.
    <?php
    session_start();
    if (isset($_POST['name1'])) $_SESSION['name1'] =
    $_POST['name1'];
    echo 'Hello, ' . $_SESSION['name1'];
    ?>
    By the way, using echo to create your form on page one is a
    complete
    waste of time. Just use an ordinary HTML form - a lot less
    typing, and a
    lot more efficient.
