    If your on 10.6.8 like you should be for security/stability updates, somewhere along the line a later Bootcamp version was issued and only supports Win 7.

    Did you get a message that the iPad is disabled?

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Read all the groups and the OU's into my code

    dears
    i want to read all the group names that are under a certain Organization Unit into my code
    how to achevie this
    for example
    a as string []
    a = readAllGroups()
    Help please?!

    I've run into the issue and it seems to be related to an app not fully supporting the iOS you're on, the reboot doesn't usually solve it.
    I've solved it in the following manner(s):
    1) Backup the device to iCloud, then erase the iPad (Content and Network Settings).
    2) Setup the iPad and choose to restore from iTunes/iCloud Backup (wherever you backed it up)
    3) Perform any software updates
    I have not tried simply performing the software updates (which may fix it, but if it doesn't you won't be able to perform the above steps).
    Enjoy.

  • Ive just installed firefox and when i open it ive lost all the toolbars and the command bar, how can i set them up

    when i go back to Explorer all the toolbars and the command bar are avalable as you can probably tell i know very little about pc's
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == i installed fire fox

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Then they reset evermy ipod out of nowhere he erased all the songs and ything as if I had just purchased apps, photos, notes, everything I just delete and not q passes first erased all the songs and then complete a reset what happened?

    my ipod out of nowhere he erased all the songs and then they reset everything as if I had just purchased apps, photos, notes, erase everything and I just do not know what happens first erased all the songs and then complete a reset step? and

    Glitches happen sometimes. Just restore from backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    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 iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    You need itunes 10.6.3 or later.

  • Illustrator's font is different for some reason and hard to read, I need to change it so i can read all the tabs and file names. Like file, edit, options, type, select, effects..... swatches, layers.. every tab is in a different font that is hard to read

    Illustrator's tabs are all in a different font that I can read.
    I need to know how to change it so I can get back to a steady workflow.
    For example..
    File, edit, options, type, select,  effects, view, windows, help..... pathfinder, layers, swatches, stroke, and the file name (all the tabs)
    are all in a different font, I don't know how it got changed but now it is different.
    This is a shared computer so someone might have changes it on accident but I'm not sure.

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • All the xml and arrays are getting NULL Problem

    Hello guys
    I am working on a project which uses xml loading, e4x and array manipulation extensively, and it was going good but now I got stuck on a strange problem.  Whole code was fine and application was working and responding in a desired way, but then mystourisly it stopped working and started to retun NULL values to almost all the actionscript (internal) Arrays and XML varibales.
    Now Whenever i load xml file and assign the loaded values to internal xml variables, internal values get only NULL instead of data.
    Same is the situation with Arrays, I created some components in mxml, and when i passed them to arrays by reference, code gets compiled successfully, but again Array has only null values [that code was working fine too]

  • After updating itunes to 10.5.3, two of my ipod classics no longer are listed under "devices" when connected to the computer. They are visable in windows as ipod but i cannot access them.  there is nothing i can do to get itunes to recognize them.. help

    ive tried restarting the apple service, wiping the ipods, restoring one of the ipods when itunes found it the first time but that never completed (Itunes froze out eventually) and now itunes does not recognize either device.  Additionally, itunes works fine when no ipods are connected, but when i connect these two classic ipods itunes freezes non-responsive.  there is no now way to connect the ipods to itunes and there is no music either.  ive seen others with similar issues (appearing in windows but not itunes) but all of the suggestions are not working.  any help would be appreciated.
    thank you.

    iPod Classic are high drain USB devices, I hope you are not trying to connnect them simultaneously to iTunes, which will definitely hang your USB Host controller, thereby freeze iTunes.
    But here is an Apple Support Article on using multiple iPods for iTunes.

  • How do I make a notification go away after I have read all the messages and it still says that I have an unread message?

    My messages app says I have an unread message from someone, but I have no unread messages. How do I make the notification go away?

    Hi,
    I have had chats/conversations that have shown the blue "unread" indicator which goes if you reselect the chat but appears again when you select another Chat.
    I have also had the red Unread number indicator showing on the Dock icon badge as a separate issue.
    This second I have resolved in Force Quitting the DOCK in Activity Monitor ( I will use Terminal but prefer an User Interface option).
    The first I tend to solve by dismissing that particular Chat/Conversation.
    As you have tried the DOCK reset method by both the recommended methods of doing so I would try a PRAM/NVRAM reset.
    Restart the Mac holding down the CMD+ALT+P+R keys all at the same time until you have heard three Start up Bongs.
    You can then let the Start up Continue.

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for the original owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must contact the original owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the original owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.
