  • Whenever i click a song it take awhile to play? before i updated to ios 8 i never did that it was always fast. but then when i updated to ios 8 it became slow. But whenever i close out of the app and go back it it will go from slow to not slow?

    Please help?

    If you delete the YouTube app you will not be affecting your YouTube account.  You can always reinstall it & see if that fixes the problem.
    As far as Safari pages reloading between tabs, I have also noticed the issue after iOS 8 on my iPad 2.  Updating to the latest iOS on older devices can see a degradation in performance within certain apps due to the limitations of those devices. 
    We made the choice to update & with the many benefits of the latest & greatest iOS there are bound to be some problems too, 

  • I have the 1st generation ipod touch i installed an update which now it is 3.1.3 version i was able to put my apps on it but when i want to use the apps it will not let me use them. what do i need to do?

    I have the 1st generation ipod touch i installed an update which now it is 3.1.3 version i was able to put my apps on it but when i want to use the apps it will not let me use them. What do i need to do?

    Does it happen with the apps that came with the iPod?
    Does it happen with all apps you have downloaded/installed?
    Have you ried deleting the apps and redownload/install the apps?  You will not be charged again if you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.
    Next would be to restore from backup
    Last would be to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • I PUSH TO UPDATE AND IT IS HUNG IN THE MIDDLE AND WILL NOT COMPLETE

    On my IPAD 2 I started the UPDATE and is hung in the middle and will not complete. Bob Hopkins   What did I do and I do not all the question you asked
    <Edited By Host>

    What is showing on your iPad's screen ?
    If it's on the progress bar which hasn't moved for a while then try a soft-reset and see if that gets the update to complete : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should reappear and it will hopefully boot up properly.
    If it doesn't then try recovery mode and restore to your backup : If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If it's showing something else ... ?

  • I am unable to burn any info-photo ect on to a disk. I have a 27" I mac mid 2010 version. I put in a disk, hit burn, it runs for about 3 mins and ejects the disk sayiny there was an error with the drive and will not restart.

    The optical drive has probably failed. It's a fairly common thing with these slim SuperDrives. Does it read any discs you put into it? You can try resetting the SMC and pram but I'll be surprised if it helps.
    To reset the SMC
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on
    Resetting PRAM and NVRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • I changed emails.  My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

    I changed emails.  My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

    What a mess the Apple ID, and associating emails, ID etc has got itself in
    I have a new iPad but after 2 days of trying all sorts still can't sync it because it is says it is associated to the other via the iCloud
    I can't use my alternate email address to setup a new Apple ID account as it says it's already used or associated, but I haven't knowingly done anything
    One message says "This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
    I am at a complete loss on what to do

  • I have gone out of my way to buy an iPad 2 and you're telling me that I cannot have Siri, as you know iPad's are expensive, and you'd expect the newest updated whenever available. I am not a happy customer and will not but from Apple again.

    If you want to use the "newest updated whatever available." then you would have to buy the newest hardware that supports that. iPad 2 is not the newest hardware available and it can't/does not support siri.

  • I have bought and ipad first generation and i would like to put my ebooks on how can I do this please the Ibook app will not download on this ipad

    I have bought a apple ipad 1st generation and I would like to put my ebooks on how would I do this the ibook app will not download on this ipad many thanks for any help offered

    Try downloading the current version of the iBooks app on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history. Then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it.
    If the ebooks aren't ibooks, then unless they are digital-rights-management free epubs then you probably won't be able to add them to your computer's iTunes library (File > Add To Library) and sync them to your iPad - in they do have DRM on them then does the store that you got them from have their own app in your computer's iTunes ? If they then you could try the above and see if they have an iOS 5 compatible version available.

  • Now that i have updated to ios 6 on my ipad 2 a lot of my apps included the app store is not working properly! What could this be???

    A lot of my apps are not running. I tried downloading an app from the app store and it give me a message saying "Cannont connect to iTunes store" and a few of the games and apps i downloaded wont open and/or load... This didnt start until i updated to ios6 how can i reverse this or what can i do to fix this error!!!?????

    We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work.  We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either.  The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps.  ***** doesn't it.

  • HT201210 I was doing an update on my iphone and it stopped short of getting it all the way done. Now my phone is stuck with an itunes icon on the screen, and will not allow me to do anything with it. I tried shutting it down and restarting it...same icon

    I tried to update my phone. The update didnt go all the way through, and ended up freezing the screen on my iphone with an itunes icon on it. I tried to reboot phone with no success...the icon stays on there with no other function of the phone available. Anybody know of a fix?

    Put your iphone in dfu mode by doing this. Turn your iphone off. When its off, hold home and power button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button and keep holding home button for another 10 seconds. Then open up itunes on your pc and plug your iphone to your pc. Itunes should recognize your iphone in recovery mode and it will tell you to restore it. Click restore, and your iphone will restore. Remember that, if you do this you will lose everything that was on your iphone. You can restore from backup later on. Hope I helped. If you have any questions or problems with this tutarial, you can contact me personaly on my email [email protected]   . Hope I helped. Cheers

  • Help!- ipad was disconnected when updating software...now it won't recognize the ipad and can't complete a restore.It can't recognize the serial # or name,etc..

    i was updating my ipad to the new ios software. the cable got disconnected just as it was completing the update. when it connected again it said i need to restore it. Once going thru the restore process, it said that Itunes can't recognize the ipad. one note, the ipad shows on my itunes as a "IPAD" and no name, serial #, etc...  The ipad has a symbol on it telling me to connect to itunes

    A System Reset cures many ills.  It's easy, quick and harmless:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
    Finally,  the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less   comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

  • TS2755 Since updating my iPhone 5 to ios7 my phone has trouble sending iMessages. Sometimes it won't send the message and will not automatically send it as an SMS despite this option being selected in settings. It's happening with 3 other people I know to

    Since updating my iPhone 5 to ios7 my phone often fails to send iMessages. It won't automatically send as an SMS despite this being switched on in the settings section.  This is also happening wig my partners phone and my mothers phone.  I want to report it to Apple but I don't know how.
    Firstly, is there a way this can be reported to Apple so they can fix the bug? And secondly, does anyone have any suggestions in relation to fixing this problem?
    I usually love my phone but I am finding it unreliable at the moment and am wishing I didn't update it.

    Restart your phone.
