I hard reset my ipad but it's now looking for activation. Why? And how can I get around it?

It's just suddenly saying ACTIVATION REQUIRED.
It's been a few weeks since I backed up so I'm somewhat nervous.
Help please. Anyone?

Sorry the news isn't better. I have to say I've not heard of it losing information from doing a reset - holding down the Sleep & Home buttons together until the Apple logo appears - I'm assuming this may be a result of the initial crash where the iPad froze.
If you backup to iCloud there is a very good chance your data will be backed up, or if you've backed up to iTunes a backup will be there but what will be present is dependant on how long ago it was backed up and what data has been added since this backup.
Regards,
Steve

When i download the new update for IPad, afterwards my youtube app is gone. Why and how can i get it back?

Please help me i use youtube everyday and now i dont have it on my IPad!

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6. You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)

If you see a dialog telling you the app is not avaiable, then it's not available.
And keep in mind, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

AdaS_VZW,
I'm not sure if the area has been surveyed; it's a large group of apartment buildings about a within a couple miles of Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia, so I would imagine that it probably has, but I'm not sure. How would I find out?
I understand that the Network Extender does not support LTE connections (I know there are two models, the 1x-only and 3g, both made by Samsung - I have the 3g model, SCS-2U01). I know that it can support a 3G data connection, but that should be irrelevant - I'm always connected to my wifi network in my apartment.
What's particularly vexing, however, is that both a Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Nexus in my apartment (the other lines on my account) do not seem to have this issue. While I haven't done so with the S4, the Nexus exhibits this problem when my SIM is in it - and again, this is a fresh SIM from just a few weeks ago.
I'm currently trying to disable Mobile Data when in the apartment to see if that will make it more stable. I'll post in a day or two with results from that.

If that Article does not resolve it... then you have a problem.
Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
Be sure to make an appointment first...
Note:
That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

Nightly builds offer x64 versions, but beta builds don't; why, and how can I get an "official" x64 build?

2 months ago, i downloaded Nightly 9.0a1 x64 directly from the FTP server. It works fine, but I haven't updated it for a while, since it works fine.
I notice that 9.0b1 is the new beta, but there is no x64 version i can find to download.
I'm confused why there still doesn't seem to be an "official" x64 build, except as a Nightly version, which doesn't like all my add-ons.
There have been x64 builds available for years, but never anything current and official.

Firefox tarballs from Mozilla Org use prefs within Firefox for updates. The "toggle" for not automatically updating - '''app.update.enabled''' and where to look for updates - '''app.update.url'''. The first needs to be '''''false''''' and the second could be a '''''null''''' string, do an update can't be found.
''I use both prefs to keep Firefox from updating by itself. I install each new version of Firefox as it is released, and keep the older versions around for reference purposes. Those prefs are the same since Firefox 1.5 came out.''
The versions of Firefox that are part of an operating system installation usually are that OS's own build of Firefox, and don't use the same update setup as Mozilla uses, in most cases. I am not familiar with Cent OS, but Ubuntu and Debian look for Firefox updates and from their own program repository servers outside of Firefox - as with the tarballs from Mozilla.

That's nice, the device is listed on your Apple profile.
That has absolutely nothing to do with syncing to a computer.
Try a different USB port.
Restart the device.
Restart the computer.

I have a children's book on iBook but no one can see it when they look for children's books How can I get it to the iBook reader easier

What is the best way to promote my book in iBooks?

Open your iTunes Connect > Deliver your Content and download the relevant PDF seen top right.

If you want to help your freinds or family, you can use this - https://linkmaker.itunes.apple.com/us/ copy the text link and email it around. Change the US to your own country if needed.
Paid books should allow you 50 token codes to allow a free download of your book. Useful if you want magazines, local newspapers etc,. to review your book.
Good Luck with your book... Hope it sells in millions....

HT201317 My photos are syncing from my iPhone, to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but it is no longer syncing to my computer (Microsoft, not Apple). Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?

My photos are syncing from my iPhone to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but they are no longer syncing to our home computer (Microsoft operating system, not Apple). Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved? I have since tried to remove and reinstall the iCloud application in my computer's control panel. I have verified that I am using the latest Apple operating system and the latest iTunes. I have reset my photo stream. Not sure what else to try... I was also having an issue with my calendar where it would sync from my computer to my iPhone but not vice versa. Somehow in all the resetting that's resolved, but the photo issue is not. Again - photos are going into the photostream, but not wirelessly being put into the file on my computer.

To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

If you already updated to 8.0 you're doing nothing wrong. It's one of the lovely issues created by the update. I just tested mine, same problem.

you have definitely tried the correct steps, all you would need to do now is a back up & restore to factory settings. If after that the issue remains then you would most likely need a replacement unit.

You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.
