while you are with the person selling it to you, ask if you can do a complete restore of the software settings->general->reset->reset all
reboot the phone to factory settings and see if that fixes the problem.  if not, i wouldn't buy it unless they are selling it to you for less than $50.  wifi is crucial for keeping data low and using features like facetime

  • I am trying to do a full Time Machine Backup to a new external disk. The backup starts, and it says "Time remaining about 4 days." That seems like a very long time, but the real problem is that the computer "logs off" after a few hours, and the b.u. stops

    I am trying to do a full Time Machine Backup to a new external disk. The backup starts, and it says "Time remaining about 4 days." That seems like a very long time, but the real problem is that the computer "logs off" after a few hours, and the backup stops. The system preferences are set to "Never" for Computer sleep and Display sleep. The computer does not ordinarily log off automatically, but it has done this twice since I started the Time Machine backup.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the search box.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — anonymize before posting.

    Hello there, SamanthaYikwai.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some basic steps to try for reinstalling an app:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Reinstall the app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
    Delete the app.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store and download the app again.
    Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
    If the download stops, you can resume it.
    If the issue persists, then you may want to try and sync the application to your iOS device using  your computer by following the information in this article, under the section "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC":
    Download past purchases

  • HT201441 sir my iphone 4s is second hand and i forgot this cell apple id and password

    sir my iphone 4s is second hand and i forgot this cell apple id and password  id and password sent on
    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address and IMEI number - it's an invitation to spam and a security risk  - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
    Are you saying that the phone is locked because the previous owner left his ID on it? If this is the case only he can unlock it, either by giving you the ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices (see the page you came here from). If you cannot contact him and get him to do this you will be unable to use the phone.
    Or are you saying that you locked it and have forgotten the ID? In that case please see

  • Just bought an iPhone 5 in second hand and it seems that i need to have the Apple ID from the first owner to use it- Any advice?

    I bought an iphone 5 in second hand and therefore performed a factory hard resert. When I tryed to turn it on again, after going trough all the steps, I was asked to fill in the Apple ID and password from the first owner who now doesnt pick up the phone… So now there's no way I can turn it on because I always get stuck in that part where I need to fill in the Apple ID and Password! Does anyone know how can I solve this problem?? Because I'm pretty sure the guy who sold it to me is not going to pick up the phone ever again...

    So you are explaining a situation where a legitimate user needs help from Apple. Why wont Apple help? Apple knows everything about the iOS devices  that are on its network.  If the iOS device is attached to an Apple account then Apple knows about it and the owner. I have an Apple account so Apple also knows about me and the iOS devices that i own already. Apple even has my credit card info on file.
    I dont expect you to know if an iOS  device that i bought was stolen or not. But surely Apple knows cause they can send an email to the seller  who has the iPhone still attached to their account and tell them that i have their phone. Then Apple can tell that seller they have a certain amount of time to respond or the iOS device will be removed from their account. Thats the best that Apple can do for their customers to protect their devices. Apple does the same whenever i buy something on the App Store or change anything with my iOS devices on iCloud. They send me an email telling me what happened and what i can do if that info is not correct. Why cant they do it with these second hand buyer activation issues?

It sounds like a bit of a mess and what you may need is an onsite PC tech to do some maintenance on your PC.
    Also, learning to properly use punctuation (particularly periods) might not be a bad idea. As it is, your post was very hard to read.
    Good luck!

    I do the download for the new version, it goes smooth, and then when I try to open it up, it pops up in my Task Manager for a moment and then disappears. No error messages, just disappears.

    (b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
    (c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)

    A free upgrade was done and included Pages, Keynote, Numbers. The only problem is that I cant send Keynote files i.e with extension .key through gmail. Even compressing the files doesnt solve the issue.

  • I downloaded iOS 5 and then I found my Apps were missing. So then I looked it up on the web then found the fix. The only problem is that half the apps I downloaded are gone. One of my favorite, Angry Birds, which I bought is also gone.

    I need help! I downloaded iOS 5 on my iPod 3rd generation after backing EVERYTHIGN up 4 times and I think I might have synced it. But just forget that I synced anything. So then when I tried to Restore Back-up it DID NOT work. This was my first time using iTunes, and I ALWAYS download throught the APP store. So then I found the fix online. I actually found 3 different ways:
    A). Go to the App store and then go to 'UPDATES' then go to Purchased and download everything you need.
    - This didn't work for halfmy apps.
    B). Go to the iTunes store, go to File > Sync iPod then wait a LOOOOOOOOONG time.
    - This also did not work, and not just in the case of my missing apps, all my apps were just sitting there. Nothing happened. I deemed this as USELESS.
    C). I have a premonition that this option should work, but I can't find it. I have to go to the SUMMARY tab under device settings then click restore. The onlyproblem is, I CAN'T FIND IT! It probably should work.
    BOTTOM LINE: Some of my favorite Apps such as Angy Birds and Madden NFL '11 are now gone. I have no idea what happened. And my backed-up iPod on iTunes only has like 14 apps out of 100sof Apps.
    PLEASE HELP - SLL ANSWERS GET 5 POINTS

    Have you looked on all the pages of your iPod?  Have you looked in all your folders?  Have you you tried finding the apps using the iPod's search page.
    PS: Offering points in advance is a violation of there terms of service for this forum.  Perhaps it's why you have not received any other answers so far,

  • Out of Memory when trying to apply redaction to a document, how can this be fixed?

    I have a user that is trying to redact a document, and when she tries to apply the redaction, she is getting Out of Memory error, any thoughts on this? Is it a computer memory issue or something in the program that I can dump something to make room?  Thanks.

    Hey,
    Please mention the configuration of your system specially CPU and RAM.
    This error usually occurs, if you run too many memory-extensive applications simultaneously. So try performing those redaction tasks after closing some of the background processes/applications
    Hope that helps.
