    I have the exact same problem & just posted a similar question.  FYI,  I'm using a Go Daddy, POP account.
    The problem is tied to the upgrade to ios 5.   Last week, I upgraded to ios 5 on my 3G to make sure my PC was current when I recieved my 4G this week.
    On the 3G, I had to delete over 2,600 emails and thought all would be fine with the new 4G but NO.   Now I have over 3000 emails to delete on my 4G!    They are all the same ones I just got done deleting last week + other emails that were deleted last week.
    Very frustrating!    Sure hope there is a way to delete all these emails at once!!!!!
    Delete them from the GoDaddy account on the website

  • How do I get Firefox 5 to work with FAFSA data entry web site @ed.gov which only allows Firefox 3.6 or earlier?

    Site blocks usage of Firefox 4 and Firefox 5. Is there a way to get Firefox 5 to tell the site I'm using Firefox 3.6? Can I use a portable version of Firefox 3.6 without scrambling Firefox 5 (I don't like this option because there isn't an official portable version, but it's probably better than IE.)?
    BTW, this is a fundamental customer (as opposed to enterprise) support issue being created by the new release schedule. It doesn't matter how good Firefox is if I can't use it.

    Yes, use Firefox Portable for that website. <br />
    http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36
    I doubt is this is an issue with the Fast Release schedule, more like an issue with a website that is incorrectly screening the user agent of the browsers being used, or with a website that hasn't been updated for a browser that was released over three months ago.

  • How can I get my iPod to work with its updater?

    Hey all, I have a 4G iPod, and it isn't recognized by iTunes. I connect it to its dock, and open the updater. The updater freezes and won't work UNLESS I leave it alone, after a few minutes the updater recognizes an iPod, but not any information about it (like the serial number or software version). Knowing this, I have sucessfully restored my iPod, only to find that the same problem is still there. The iPod shows up in "My Computer", but I can't get into it. Also of interest, whenever I connect the iPod, AutoPlay immediately starts, and asks me what I want windows to do every time I connect the device, but it doesn't show me a list of options...perhaps AutoPlay is messing the iPod-iTunes connection up? Can anyone help? Tried tons of thing on the site already.
    Thanks

    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Otherwise you need a working dock connector and computer wither iTuned and internet connection
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • How do I get JavaForOSX2014-0 to work?

    how do I get JavaForOSX2014-0 to work?

    Just try using from View->Fit to screen and check if it works. Reset the preferences by:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Check in any other windows app like word or any other app you aware of it is there.
    Thanks,

  • How do I get my AppleID to work with iCloud?

    How do I get my AppleID to work with iCloud? It says that I have a valid ID, but that I can't use it with iCloud...
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks!!

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

    I am trying to setup my ipad 2 but I can't get back to the wi-fi connections section.  How do I get there, nothing is working.

    The Wi-Fi connections section is in Settings > Wi-Fi
    If the home screen is not visible tap the Home button, the button on the front of your iPad that has the rounded square in it. Once you reach the Home screen swipe through the screen of apps until you find the Settings app. Tap Settings and go to Wi-Fi.
    If your iPad is completely non responsive, try a restart.
    Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep button simultaneously ignoring the red slider. Keep holding until the Aple logo appears and your iPad will restart.
    The sleep button is on the side of your iPad on the side opposite from the Home button.
