How about some information, i.e. operating system & version, browser & version, Flash Player version, and what you are doing when you get that error message?

Then you should try restoring the iOS software next. Read this and pay attention to the last part of the article that describes recovery mode, you may have to restore your iPad that way.

Error message - "entry point not found - asl_add_log_file could not be located in the dynamic link library ASL.dll". Does anyone have a clue how this can be fixed? I am running iTunes 9. Thank you.

I get this message when I start up my computer and when I try to open itunes. After a couple of clicks to cancel the message, all programmes still open. I've run a registry checker to no avail. I also cannot find the ASL.dll on my computer either. Any ideas?

If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

I have the ipad2 with the latest Os upgrade. On certain websites, I get the following error message: cannot open page. Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost. I have rebooted, turned off wifi and reset the password.

This is happening to only certain websites. Unfortunately, the work ones that I need to access. I appreciate any help.
Error message:
Cannot open page
Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost
I reset the wifi and the password, I also rebooted several times.

Do you have any other browsers on your iPad? If you don't have one, why don't you try downloading one of these free browsers - they will all be "lite" versions (not full featured) - but if you can access these websites with one of those - then I assume that we can point to Safari as being the culprit. That will not solve the Safari problem, but it will give us another point from which to work.

I have Mercury, iCab Mobile, Opera, Dolphin and Atomic. iCab Mobile - the paid version is great.
BTW ... have you tried to access these sites from another WiFi connection - like a library, a friend's house - any other WiFi network?

Downloaded iOS 8.2 on ipad3 and won't respond to code or turn on turn off button. Can't sync with my iMac either? You would think after iOS 8.1 apple would learn their lesson.

Downloaded iOS 8.2 and now won't respond to code or turn on and off button. If pressed Siri comes on and says connect to internet. iMac can't connect to iPad either? With ios8.1 fiasco apple would not release another problem.

do not download ios 8.2 it totally destroyed my iPad 2 , and hour after the update it gave me a black screen with the date and the battery status and that's it it wont shutdown itune will not reset cause of the find my ipad
DO NOT UPDATE to 8.2

Nature space app sound does not turn off and why is the camera living underneath the app screen

Cannot get the sound on the nature space app to turn off. And wondering if the app normally uses the camera. As I'm new to this it could be simple? Or is it a bug? The camera is sitting under the screen which isn't t making sense to me!!

Never mind. Apparently a duplicate of other threads. Possible fix: update the defective OSX Lion to Mountain Lion.

I have the same problem. I'm using Mavericks OS and latest iMovie. Both downloaded last week. I save the movie into File (as directed) and QuickTime
will not open. I'm then directed to a page of formats which are supposed to be supported on which is .mp4. Any tips?
