  • Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad? As of today my google calendar not longer appears on either device.

    Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad 2? As of today it no longer shows up. Thanks.

    Let me re-qualify my issue. Under my Google Calendar account I have the main calendar I originally set up when setting up my account. I then set up several other calendars under this same account such as events, work, family and so on. All the calendars showed up on my iPhone and iPad with no problem and worked great for a year and a half now until yesterday. My main calendar does still show up but the others no longer appear on my devices. Going on line to look at my Google calendar/calendars everything is fine with all of them. Any thoughts as to why they no longer show up on my iPhone or iPad? Thanks again.

    I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • My iPad was stolen in brazil.  i cannot get the manufacturer id number from my iPhone or my macbook air....they are all linked together though.  any suggestions on how and if i can possibly retrieve this and thus locate the device? thanks julie

    Launch iTunes, go to the Preferences, select Devices, and hover your cursor over the backup file for the iPod. That should show you the serial number, IMEI, and possibly the MEID.
    The manufacturer ID will not help you locate the iPad, though. If you set up the Find My iPad service in the Settings prior to the iPad going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPad is turned on, connected to a WiFi or 3G network, and has not had the Find My iPad service disabled or the iPad been completely restored). 
    If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPad (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • Is anyone having trouble with the cursor jumping around since Lion was installed on your computer? Never happened until Lion.

    Is anyone having trouble with the cursor jumping around while typing since you installed Lion? Never had any problems of that sort prior to Lion. I have an older machine. I believe it is a 2008 MacBook Pro. Especially happens with Yahoo. I am baffled.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • I'm having trouble with my Ellipsis Jetpack connecting to a Windows 8.1 computer

    Has anyone had any problems connecting the jetpack (Ellipsis) to the internet with a computer that is running Windows 8,1?  I was able to remove my password and it connected, but I'm leary about connecting without the password.  It connected beautifully with my laptop using Windows 7 and my android phone (as well as the Verizon salesman's phone) who hooked me up.  Any help would greatly be appreciated!  I spent 2-1/2 hours on the phone with HP and Verizon support at the same time and neither tech had an answer.

    Thank you for your answer, but my Ellipsis is a jet pack.  There is a tablet called Ellipsis, however, mine is a wireless jet pack.  I believe it is relatively new (since around Dec. 2013) give or take a few months. 
    I am trying to connect to the internet from my desktop computer running Windows 8.1 using my Ellipsis Jet Pack device.  My Ellipsis jet pack connected every device in the house except for the desktop.  Once I erased my password and tried getting on the internet via the jet pack and no password, my desktop computer accepted it and I was online.
    I've been reading about connectivity issues that 8.1 is having right now.  I have a feeling that it is the Windows 8.1 issue more so than the jet pack. 
    Thank you!

  • Having trouble with the touch pad responding when I click it on the macbook pro I have to click it about 3 to 4 times before it works

    has anyone had trouble with the touch pad on the macbook pro not working properly. I have to click it 3 or 4 times befre it responds. Can these be replaced?

    Your MacBook Pro has enough compute power to do airframe stress analysis modeling or weather forecasting. This is not a computational issue.
    Most USB printers do the imaging on the Mac, then send the stream of bits to the printer. The speed of doing this depends on the Printer driver.
    Some drivers will image the page in "slices", and then pause to image the next slice after the first one completes. This may also depend on whether you have enough RAM memory available to do the imaging for a whole page at a time.
    You have not mentioned what Printer, or whether this is indeed the latest driver for it.

  • Having trouble with your iphone6 not connecting to your car? here is what worked for me

    Back up your phone!!!
    Go to Settings>General at the bottom of the screen hit “Reset.” On next screen select "Reset All Settings." This will reset your locked screen, your internet passwords, Touch ID & Passcode, your zoomed view, battery percentage, etc. You won’t  loose any apps or docs. Just go back and change them as you did when you first got the phone. Delete all the Bluetooth devices on both in your Car and on the iPhone (on the phone: go to Bluetooth>My Devices, click on the “i” at the right and click on "Forget This Device"). Shut down both the phone and the car. Restart the car and the phone. “Pair" your phone. Shut the car off and restart. Give it a few minutes to allow the car to update the phonebook.
    This worked like a gem.

    Agreed!!
    Same story......after waiting over 36 hours for activation, finally called 877-800-3701 AGAIN (probably the 4th or 5th time) and got an incredible CS person named Michelle who could not have been more helpful. She actually took the time to look at my account, saw that it was ready to activate, and went through all the steps to manually activate it. Whole process took about 45 minutes, but it was with someone from AT & T instead of waiting around all day for some magical email. Now, iPhone works like a charm and was worth the wait.
    So to all still waiting for activation, keep calling the 3701 number. And keep doing it until someone takes the time to help you. It really does work......

  • I just purchased the 4S and am having trouble with it at least once a day says Invalid Sim, what would cause this and how do I fix it

    Then, if there's any data on the drive that you want to keep, you have to back up before you do anything else -- assuming it's still possible.
    Basically you have three options:
    1. Install a copy of the Mac OS on an external hard drive, boot from it, and copy the data from the internal drive.
    2. Start the problem Mac in FireWire target mode (command-T at startup) and connect it to a working Mac with a FireWire cable. The internal drive will mount as a FireWire device.
    3. Remove the internal drive and mount in an external enclosure on another Mac.
    Once you've backed up, follow the sequence in the support article linked below. The article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running Lion) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime.

  • Anyone having trouble with IMac dropping internet connections? inter

    My IMac is dropping my internet connection?
    Any ideas or suggestions on what is causing this?
    george

    I too have this problem but I've had it for about 2 years.  We used to think it was because I was on wi-fi and I was getting interference.  I moved the modem closer and that didn't help.  Then my ISP kept telling me it was my Dlink modem so I chucked that modem out and went with my ISP's modem.  That didn't solve the problem but at least my ISP couldn't blame it on other equipment.   I then moved the modem right beside my iMac and I was still loosing the connection  while on wi-fi.  I got so fed up that I have hard wired my iMac right into the modem and it's still happening.  Ive had my cable company out here a zillion times trying to trouble shoot this.  They changed all of my cabling from the road to my house and from my house to the computer.  They gave me a new modem and then they gave me another new modem but a different brand.  I'm still dropping my internet connection every few minutes. 
    The one thing that I discovered with my provider is that I'm not actually loosing connection to the internet as they don't see my internet dropping at all.  It's as if the signal comes and goes on this iMac and when it goes, I'm left with my curser doing the whirley-bird until it reconnects to the net.  Usually takes 5 minutes or so but it eventually comes back.  My wi-fi is fine with my iPad and my iPhone but it wasn't with this iMac.  I've been on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion and I've had the same problem with all three OS's on this iMac. 
    I'm totally at a loss as to why this is happening.  It's very frustraging and makes it near impossible to use online banking or booking flights etc because I can't keep a connection long enough.
    Anybody have any brilliant suggestions to try?

  • I'm having trouble with uploading two documents to iCloud from pages.

    On my iPad2, two documents continue to have the blue 'updating' bar at the bottom and Pages continues to say "updateing 2 items" with the little spnning wheel. I've got plenty of space available both on the iPad and iCloud. Other documents are uplaoding just fine. The two documents are between 4 and 5 pages of text only. Any ideas?

    The easiest way to set up to most provider routers is to set up the time capsule to bridge mode with dhcp enabled--meaning the time capsule pulls an IP address from the providers router. Then connect the other express or extreme to time capsule using apples built in bridging.
    Doing it this way gives your network one dhcp server--the providers router. This way you will be able to reach all your providers tv receivers for the app controllers because all devices will be on the same subnet.
    The trade off is the controlling device for firewall and ports is the providers router. So if you want remote access to your hard drive in the time capsule you will need to allow this through the providers router.
    To me it sounds like you have 2 dhcp servers and when you reboot the dhcp server that boots up the quickest give the IP address out. Then when the time to live timer expires and the devices needs to check and make sure it is still good with its IP address another dhcp server steps in and causes your issue.
