    My daughters imessage & face time on her ipod touch has suddenly stopped working.  The only way i could get it going again was to reset it up with my email address.  This will not allow her to send messages to any of her contacts in her addess book.  I have tried to set up her email (which she previously used successfully) but it will not allow this it states 'unable to verify email because it is already in use' - anyone any ideas its is driving me mad !!

  • IPad just stopped working; will not turn on

    My iPad has suddenly stopped working. I picked it up this morning to read one of my newspaper apps and it won't turn on. The screen is completely blank. It was working normally last night. I thought maybe the battery had run out so I plugged it is to recharge but it still would not turn on. Do you think it might be the battery? I bought it in July. Thought the battery would last longer than that.

    Thank HEAVENS!!!! I was crying about my ipad, i have done so much to protect it and as i'm walking out of class to my car (my ipad worked during my entire class) i pull it out of its carrying case and push the home button and NOTHING! but the power and home button for 10 seconds, i'm so happy!!! I'm crying tears of joy right now as my BABY IS BACK!!!!! Now i'll be babying my 64GB wifi + 3g ipad even more she's not even a year old!!! I am so glad that i found this post in the apple discussion section. BLESS YOU!!! But how strange that this happened almost 10 days apart from yours doing the same thing. What's going on apple?

    Hi Hamish1P,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like an app you installed is not working. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If an app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open - Apple Support

  • Hi, I've tried charging continuously for 72 hours. But to no avail. It just stopped working out of the blue! I had only used it for about 1 month!

    Hi, I've tried charging continuously for 72 hours. But to no avail. It just stopped working out of the blue. Actually I believe I let the battery die off completely. When I tried charging it again, it never worked.
    I had only used it for about 1 month.
    I bought this in January at Best Buy, and still have the receipt. I was on long business trip and just got back. I can't get the 90 day customer service. How can I get this returned to Black Berry, they won't allow me to contact them without providing my credit card for incidence based service.
    Please help! Thanks.

    do any LED color happen when you plug it in?
    if only RED, then pug in until red goes out, wait 6 seconds and plug in again.
    repeat 3 times and wait to see if 5 green flashes while plugged in
    after 5 flahes, leave it plugged in for 90 minutes and it should boot up. if not hold power button down for 20 seconds and try again.
    You have 1 year warranty, choose option other when calling in and not phone support. This is confusing I  know.

  • My computer tells me I purchased the Rod Stewart Christmas album, but I did not. How can I get iTunes to cancel this "purchase". Also this thing has just started playing when I turn on my computer, how do I stop it?

    My computer tells me I purchased Rod Stewart's Christmas album. I DID NOT. How do I get iTunes to cancel the purchase. Also, this thing has suddenly started playing when I turn on my computer. How do I make it stop?

    It is probably too late to cancel it, but contact the iTunes store support staff at http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html and see what they can do for you.

  • My 2nd mini iPad in a year and same problem happened,it stopped working. what's wrong with mini iPads?!

    I got a replacement to my daughter’s iPad mini in September b/c her 1st one stopped working and now it happened again. I took it to the Apple store and  i was told that there's  nothing they can do. What's wrong with the iPad minis?

    I have an iPad mini and it works great, so do many other people.
    Is it possible your daughter abused the device?   If it gets dropped, even in a damage proof case, it is a shock to the iPad.   Most survive, but if it happens often, it might be a problem.
    Charging often, not completely, leaving in charger while in use a lot?
    Leaving the iPad in a hot car, or freezing the iPad?

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

  • Airplay on iPad has just stopped working with Apple TV2

    As of today, Airplay on my iPad with Apps that were working (eg TED, ABC iView) transmitting video and sound to Apple TV2 has ceased working. When the Airplay logo on the iPad app is pressed it remains white, not changing to blue as it normally does.

    Thanks for tip. Rebooting iPad fixed it. Apple TV seems very sensitive to connection issues. I have normally have no issues with my iMac, iPod, iPad, and Airport Express connections

  • I was using my iPad this morning and my internal speakers just stopped working when I tried to turn my nighttime playlist on. Does anyone know what I should do?

    I was listening to music this morning and the speakers on my iPad were working perfectly fine. Then I opened my iSleep App and used it to turn on my nighttime playlist and my alarm clock and my speakers weren't working. I tried restarting it (twice) and it didn't work.
    I plugged my headphones in and sound still comes out. And I don't listen my music all the way or for very long, so I'm pretty sure the speakers didn't blow out.
    Does anybody what the problem is?

    I can merely offer a suggestion, reset the iPad.
    Press Home + sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the white Apple logo appears.
