I have had a message indicator showing I have a text for a week now and there is no text.

I've reset it multiple times and gone through my entire text history to see if I could find anything unread and I cant. How can I get this to go away?

When you say you've gone through your entire history did you click on each thread or did you just scroll through the main page of messages after clicking on the "messages" app? Although that may be tedious (you don't have to scroll throuh each thread...just click on it and then go back to the main page) it might help clear that indicator for you, What may have happened is that the indicator showed while you were exiting an already opened thread...and you saw the message prior to exiting but the indicator managed to show at the same time. If you don't want to do that then you might have to restart your iPhone to see if that helps...which it might not...OR you might need to do a restore...which you may not really want to do, but might be what you need to do to get things back right. Also, try searching the Apple Support site (apple.com/support) to see if they have any articles to address something like this and what troubleshooting techniques it recommends.

(5) carrier sent me a text when I was overseas that said I had used too much data so they were turning it off for a bit, I have been home for three weeks now and we called them and they said that they weren't stopping it from turning on, how do I fix it?

How would I be able to fix this? I know that it's not my carrier anymore, is there something in settings or do I have to go to the Apple Store?

Your carrier is wrong. I know for a fact, because we've had iphone user who have gone abroad and went over their limit, and AT&T disable their service. When they returned to the state, I had to reactivate their serivce for them.
so call your carrier back and have them reactivate your service.

HT201269 I'm updating from my iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5 and have been 'restoring' for 2 hours now and the progress bar still states I hae 6 hours remaining. Will it really take this long? How long should a restore take? It's a 32gb device. Thanks.

I am having this problem. At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2. I am not sure why this is happening.
My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
The problem mainly occurs with apps. I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them. The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage. It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup. With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up. The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete. This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.

TS1702 i have 14 apps stuck in updating mode on ipad have tried to restart several times. they have been stuck for a week now

I have 14 updates that have been "stuck" updating for a week now. I have tried to restart update several times. I have tried toe restart ipad several times. I have the latest ios software udate. I have tried to pause and restart the apps individually. any ideas????

1. Check iTunes and see if you have a pending/stalled download e.g. Podcast, Books, Music, Movies or iTune U. Finish off the download and you should be able to update.
2. Connect iTune; and Check for available download (under Store). When download is completed, sync to iPad.

Ive had my macbook pro for a week now and when i cleaned the screen 4 days ago i found a little chip in the screen so the computer was definitely chipped at the manufacture or at the store but again its almost microscopic

To whom It May Concern,i have my macbook pro its a week old and after maybe 2-3 days cleaned it and noticed a little chip in the screen when the light flashed on the computer. Also my charger sometimes just dose not work ill plug it in at a different outlet then it will work its very frustrating to have this many issues i would like to see if i could get a new charger that actually works and a macbook without a tiny chip in it
Please let me know what you guys can do about it.
Thank You,

You are not addressing Apple, we are Apple users, like you.
Take it to an Apple Store as soon as you can, you can return it within 14 days of purchase.

I have Lion on my 13" pro and have kept it up to date. Today I had a message about the need to update firmware. I pressed restart and there was language about the screen ging gray. I think it said for a few minutes. It has been 3 hrs. is this a problem?.

I got an alert to update firmware. When I click for restart a message the screen would gray and and it might ake a few minutes. That was about three hours ago and it is still gray and sitting there. Is this to be expected? What could/should I do? I am typing this on an ipad because the Macboob Pro is currently useless.

With Firmware updates, Apple will usually offer instructions to complete the update, since they require an additional step to complete. It sounds like you haven't finished the Firmware update completely.
Since it's your computer and investment, I wouldn't risk it and would visit your local Apple Store and let them solve the problem. In the meantime, read this link from Apple:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1557?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
...to bring you up to date on the procedure.

Please help! I have been trying for a week now to update and get my music on my phone but iTunes just keeps telling me backing up...for hours on end. There's nothing to back up because it's a new phone and when I cancel the backup that takes forever too

When I plug my phone in it says it needs to update to the new software so I try to update it and it just says backing up. Someone please help me.

Dear ED3K:
First: I hope you don't work for Apple as you have some poor communication skills in assistance. That said, I would never in a million years pay you 45 dollars to help me. I think I would sleep with Satan first!!
No one here works for Apple. This is a user-to-user technical support forum. Everyone here is a volunteer. You tend to get from this forum what you bring to it. If you come in ranting and raving and saying you're going to throw your iPhone out the window and that Apple is mean, people are not likely to respond to you with sweetness and light and puppies and kittens.
If you really want help, I'd suggest you take a deep breath and then start a new thread in which you explain the problems you're having, the steps you've taken to resolve the problems, any error messages you've gotten. Stick to the facts. Check the attitude and emotion at the door. People will do their best to help you.
Best of luck.

I am so frustrated I could spit.. I have been experiencing issues for 1 week now and am unable to use my iphone. It started by shutting down every time I'd try to use it and now it won't turn on. When I plugged it in the charger apple flashes .

i have been unable to use my iphone for going on a week. It started by shutting down when ever I'd try to use it. Now it has just a dead black screen. If i plug it in it doesn't charge And the flashing apple continues every 2seconds never charging or turning on. I'm frustrated because I can't even get in to troubleshoot. I bought an iphone cuz I thought it was the best phone at the time. My contract isn't up til Aug. and I'm stuck with a bill and no phone. I do not own a computer but I have an ipad4 which I love. HELP!

Make an appointment at the genius bar are your nearest Apple store. At this point there is nothing you can do without a computer, so if you don't have one and don't know anyone who has one that you can use the Apple store is a good fallback.

I had a message that shows my mail box is full, i have deleted all my file but unfortunatly it shows no change on the storage at all

Ditto on Clinton's suggestion using OmniDiskSweeper. It is an excellent tool.
It may seem elementary, but do empty Trash. Only then do you gain storage space.

Unable to check plugins for 2 weeks now-error message-went to "help" & was warned I am using outdated version-so went to update but not available....any ideas? I am computer literate so you don't have to over-simplify your answer ; ) Thanks!

I keep rec. an error message every time I try to do a plugin check. It says "error finding service" and asks me to try again later. I have been trying for a couple weeks now and still get the same error. I clicked on "help" and was brought to a page that told me I am using an "insecure version" of Firefox....(LOL "INsecure...like it's scared, not sure what to do?? Shouldn't that be UNsecure?) Anyway, I thought I had the most recent version but maybe not so I clicked on the link to update Firefox. That took me to a page that told me all about how Firefox automatically updates unless I opt for it NOT to do this (I have not opted out of this feature) etc etc etc.....and there is no button to click to update now. I am unable to rectify this problem and I think some of the plugins ARE out of date but because of the error message I keep getting I can't check on them or update them. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ive had my iPod classic for some time now, and up to now have been using my laptop to sync songs from iTunes. Unfortunatley, the laptop has died and I'm thinking of buying a iPad.....but how do i now get any songs downloaded from iTunes to my iPod?

I've had my iPod classic for some time now, and up to now have been connecting it to my laptop to sync any downloaded tunes from iTunes. Unfortunately, the laptop has died and I'm thinking of buying a iPad.....but how do I now get any songs downloaded from iTunes to my iPod?

If an iPod is set to update automatically it will be associated with a particular library. If you connect that iPod to a different computer or a different library on the same computer you get the the message you are referring to. "The iPod "iPod Name"is linked to another another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to this iTunes music library and replace all existing songs and playlists on this iPod with those from this library". To use an iPod on multiple computers you change the update method to "manually manage songs and playlists". You can also use multiple iPods on a single computer so you will be able to connect both of your iPods to your existing iTunes. Connect the new iPod and follow the on screen instructions, iTunes will open and update your iPod.
For info:
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

I have been trying for two weeks to back up iCloud. I keep getting a message failure. Why??

I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is 4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

I have had my iMac for 55 days now and twice I had to power off/on and then It does not power up correctly. I verified my disk and found errors that could not be repaired. I erased the drive and restored system back to the previous day.

I have had my iMac for 55 days now and twice I had to power off/on and then It does not power up correctly. I verified my disk and found errors that could not be repaired (errors were associated with boot drive) I erased the drive and restored system back to the previous day. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Since it's a new machine, contact Apple's Support and let them deal with it. Allen's already recommended an Apple repair station visit. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you might be eligible for an onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine (depends on where you're located). BTW, the AppleCare Protection Plan's the best warranty policy available for desktop machines. Get it if you don't have it before contacting Apple.
