  • Cleaned trackpad with Windex! Now it won't work!!!

    Okay, I'm stupid. I used Windex or something like that to clean the trackpad of my iBook, and now the trackpad barely works. I just now read in the manual that you're not supposed to use cleaning solutions to clean this area.
    Is there any way to make it work again?

    Windex's ammonia is not the greatest of cleaners to use on your Mac, as the ammonia can potentially destroy the system components. You should use some of Macs authorized cleaners.
    As for your trackpad, drying it out is a good option. I had this happen to my iBook a year ago with 401, and the trackpad was doomed. I had to take it in for repair, and you might have to do this. hopefully, it will be under the warrenty.
    Good Luck, Mike

  • I cleaned my wireless keyboard with a cloth that had a few sprays of windex on it, wiping back and forth and up and down on the keys. Now, various keys are not working. Is there a way to "reset" the keyboard to restore the keys?

    Thanks for replying (thorvsphoenix)
    The windex was sprayed on the cloth, not the keyboard. And only one or two pumps on a hand towel. No liquid seeped between the keys the towel was barely damp. You are saying the ammonia gas created the problem?
    I think It was more an issue of multiple keys being depressed at the same time that screwed up the configuration. That is why I need to "reboot" the keyboard.

  • I switched my keyboard to french and now it won't change back to english. Quite the hassle when trying to write in english. Why would it be stuck?

    When the keyboard pops up, tab the Globe icon, and select the English keyboard.

  • Itunes updated and now it won't work.  I unstalled it and reinstalled the older version and it still won't open. Says the itunes library won't work with the older program. Help

    It says it cannot removed the older version of iTunes.
    Doublechecking before proceeding ... what's the precise text of that message, please? (There's a couple of different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

    Yes, connect to your computer with the latest version of iTunes installed and restore it. If it doesn't show up in iTunes when you connect it see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    You also said: "It also will not let me download any music onto it." What happens when you try to sync music to the iPod?

  • I just (10 minutes ago) downloaded an update to Firefox Sync and now it won't work

    A few minutes ago (10 November 2010 18:00 GMT approx) I downloaded an update to Firefox Sync after getting a prompt and now it won't work. It is not listed under tools as before or in the browser taskbar. It appears as a green jigsaw-puzzle-piece in my list of add-ons saying "this add-on will be installed when you restart Firefox". I have restarted FF about 5 times now and it still won't install. I have the most up to date version of FF.

    I assume Google toolbar extension is not compatible with Firefox 5.
    You can try this extension to override compatibility issues,

  • HT5538 I changed my apple ID and now iMessages won't work

    I recently changed my Apple ID and now iMessages won't work on my Mac. It will still work on my iPhone and iPad, but they will not communicate with my Mac. None of the messages I try to send from my Mac will go through.

    HI,
    This is a step up from the previous suggestion.
    Make the Finder the "front" app.
    Use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
    Select the Library that appears in the Menu list.
    Navigate to Preferences.
    Find com.apple.imservice.imesssages.plist and drag it to the Trash.
    Restart the app.
    You will most likely have to re-enter the Apple ID
    If that does not work delete the com.apple.imessages.bag.plist  (this one holds the server it should be trying rather).
    Again Restart the app.

  • I bought Cool Edit Pro v. 2 many yrs ago.  loaded onto new PC and now it won't work

    It now thinks it's a "trial version" and won't let me use it.  It's NOT A TRIAL VER, I PAID FOR IT.  The Adobe support guys don't want to help, I need a work around

    I loaded it using the original CD and license number.  My old PC had Windows XP but my new PC has Windows 7.  It worked for a while, but then up pops the "trial version" stuff saying I used up my 12 free hours.  It wasn't a trial version, I bought it years ago and have been using it all along

    Where did you reload it from? Do you still have the original CD and serial number? Maybe it isn't compatible with your new PC so we need a bit more info to see if it is compatible.

  • My computer won't let me run the setup.exe file. I am an admin I've run as admin and I've downloaded many times. I just reformatted my computer and now it won't work.

    Try this  - 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 equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • I just upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now Safari won't work.  What version of Safari do I need?

    I finally got around to updating to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now Safari won't work.  It was version 4.0.5.  I know I should of upgraded prior but didn't need to because everything was working.  Any suggestions how to fix this?

    Are you opening Safari directly from /Applications rather than using a Dock shortcut ?.
    If the one in /Applications won't work either - what happens exactly... if there's a crash report, please post it here.
    Also, check Software Update, and/or manually install  Safari 5.1.9 for Snow Leopard
