Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on". Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? I did not have this issue with the previous OS. Thank you.

Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Thank you!

Macpro dual core xeon. Why can I not download Lion even with snow leopard 10.6.8 already as sysyem?

macpro dual core xeon January 2008 Why can I not download Lion even with snow leopard 10.6.8 already as sysyem?

If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.

Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

You question is garbled. Are you saying your iPad cannot connect to a laptop with Snow Leopard? Restart your computer. Start iTunes and check for updates. If there are any updates to itunes download and install it. Then restart your computer and start iTunes.
Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
Finally connect your iPad to your computer. Use a USB on your computer that is not on the keyboard or connected to a hub.
If you do these things and it still doesn't show up in iTunes on your computer report back here and explain clearly just what happened.

On my iMac, iMessage is only displaying the text of the person responding to me and not the text I am sending them. I do not have this issue with my iPad or iPhone, how do I fix this? It did work fine last week.

I have read through some of the message boards and still can't seem to find this issue anywhere. Please help.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

I have a very old mac and need to upgrade to snow leopard to update my itunes, my disc drive is not working can i download snow leopard without a disc?

I have an old mac version 10.5.8 I need to update to snow leopard and my disc drive isn't working... Can I download snow leopard without a disc?

Snow Leopard is only available on disk. Furthermore, even if you had a working disk drive, you may not be able to install Snow Leopard anyway, depending on just how "old" your Mac is. It must have an Intel processor to run Snow Leopard (Macs with Intel processors were first made in 2006), among other requirements.

Any one else have this issue with their Mophie?

I am just wondering if anyone has this issue with their Mophie and can offer any tips.
I recieved a Mophie from a friend for my iPhone 4. It has a crack on it that if you put a piece tape on it, part of the case can come out. It works, but you have to hold it basically still in order for it to work.
At this point, it seems like I'm better off giving this Mophie a first class ticket to the trash but I just wanted to see if anyone else out there in the world has had a similar issue and can offer some tips but I'm sure it's beyond repair at this point.

There is something really very very wrong in the land of Cellular Companies!!!!!!! Verizon Wireless is not going to recover from this. August 28th was my time to be able to upgrade my phone. I upgraded to a Samsung Notebook II. Well I have it, its very pretty. BUT I CANNOT USE IT BECAUSE VERIZON WIRELESS IS SAYING "THEY ARE HAVING A PROBLEM INTERNALLY WITH EVERYONE WHO UPGRADED THEIR PHONES THAT ENTERED INTO THE EDGE PROGRAM. SOMEHOW THE PHONES CANNOT BE ACTIVATED FOR USE. THEY CAN GIVE ME NO TIME FRAME AS TO WHEN THIS WILL BE RESOLVED." I will still in the meantime be billed for the phone as if I was using it. I WAS OFFERED NOTHING FOR THIS POOR PLANNING AND EQUIPMENT/PLANNING FAILURE ON THE PART OF VERIZON. I WAS NOT OFFERED ANY DISCOUNT, PRICE LOWERING, GIFT CARD, SKIP A PAYMENT. NOTHING!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL CUSTOMER TO THIS COMPANY FOR YEARS AND THIS IS HOW I AM BEING TREATED.
I am so disgusted by this. Is there anyone else out there that is having this problem? That is probably why I read on somone's blog that they are only letting new customers do the Edge program now. It is a huge mess.
Right now what I want to do is return the phone and opt out of my contract early (it ends in December) with no dings against me.
One mad fed up and done with leaving Customer

HT5654 I tried to install the new update to iTunes on my Windows XP computer and I keep getting an error that say iTunes was not installed properly. Please reinstall iTunes. I tried that and it still won't work. Got any ideas what is wrong?

I tried to run the new update to iTunes and I got the error....iTunes was not installed properly. Please reinstall iTunes. I have tried that twice with no success. Anyone have any ideas what the problem is?

TS3992 I just keep getting an error that back up was not successful

My phone keeps telling me to back up my phone to iCloud since it has been awhile. When I try by (plugging in, turning on wifi) it just looks like its loading and then says back up was not successful. My iPad backs up just fine but my phone won't.

On a time capsule the error message is meaningless. That would only apply to an external drive...TC is a network drive.
I recommend you just reboot the whole network.. from off..
Restart in order.. modem.. TC.. clients. Wait 2 min between each one.
If the disk still won't mount give us more info..
Are you using wireless or ethernet?
How is the TC configured?
What sort of internet?

Anyone had an issue on iphone 4s where bluetooth connects one day and then the next will not discover anything, but then a little while later it works again? I have 2 audio devices and an apple keyboard that I have this issue with. Effects ALL.

I have an iphone 4s. A while ago it started having issues with bluetooth. All of the sudden, an audio headset I am using quits working with my iphone bluetooth. I check and my iphone doesn't see any of my bluetooth devices. I have an apple keyboard, a headset, and a speaker. Nothing shows up on my iphone but they all connect perfectly to my ipad. Then a day or so later it works again. The are all suddenly there. I just installed iOS7 and I'm still having the same problem. What is UP? Anyone have a clue what is going on?

I have this problem too. I have an iPhone 4, and this wasn't a problem when I bought the phone back in December. I think it came a month or so later and I suspect with a standard upgrade of something like itunes, or iphone software... but I can't pinpoint it to any specific update as it took me a while to notice it. For me, it does this with my work calendar which is run through Microsoft Outlook. But it's the exact same thing - and it means my calendar isn't reliable anymore.
I've made sure the time-zone settings are correct, I've updated all software, and gone through all possible settings for both my i-phone and Outlook. Nothing fixes the problem, even our tech guy at work didn't know what to do. I know it's not just my phone as the exact same thing has happened with my boss's iPhone which is an iPhone 3G, and it frustrates him to no end.
I'm really hoping someone at apple can tell us what's going on, especially since it never used to do this and there doesn't seem to be any way to fix it. If someone thinks they know what itunes update this was due to, let me know - I'll see if I can go back to that older version.
