I installed OS Lion on my late 2009 Macbook and now I am having issues with WiFi.  When my computer goes to sleep my mac won't recognize my WiFi and I need to use the network assistant EVERYTIME to get on the internet.

Very frustrated as my Macbook has been freezing a lot especially when streaming video online or sometimes just by being on a website with a lot of flash.  I've updated all my software and I have 4 gigs of ram.  I do have most of my 250 gig hard drive used up....coud this be an issue?

  • I have installed mountain lion on my early 2009 macbook (not unibody) and it is terrible, it's like owning a windows pc again (almost) What can I do? I paid for mountain lion, is there any way of giving it back and getting a refund?

    I have installed mountain lion on my early 2009 macbook (not unibody) and it is terrible, it's like owning a windows pc again (almost) What can I do? I paid for mountain lion, is there any way of giving it back and getting a refund? obvisoulsy after unintalling it. I couldn't see any reason why it would be bad for my particular macbook, and it downloaded without a problem.

    In what way is it terrible? Mountain Lion is pretty stable. If you are having problems, most likely they are unique to your particular system and can be fixed. If you don't like some of the new features, that does not constitute reason for a refund.
    If that does not suit you, you will have to discuss a refund with Apple, as they are the only ones who can say. Note that the App Store terms do say that all sales are final, so you are not guaranteed a refund, especially since whatever problems you had are not due to defective software.

  • I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all.

    I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all my music and ringtones. What should I do? I don't want to loose all my items.

    When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
    You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    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

  • I restarted my phone and now I am having problems with it. It will turn on but only goes to the black screen with the droid eye before shutting off again and trying to restart, what can I do to fix that?

        I'm sorry to learn that your phone is having problems starting up, marinema08. I'm sorry if this is incorrect, but are you using the original HTC Droid Incredible or a later Droid Incredible model? Please try placing your phone in Safe Mode to see if you are able to move past the Droid eye. http://vz.to/1kdQWVI If you are able to enable Safe Mode, please try deleting any recent applications you have added.

  • I downloaded the new os7 on my Ipad mini. Now in order to use the ipad I need to use a passcode. I cannot get pass the login screen and I never set up my ipad to use a passcode. What can I do?

    I downloaded the new os7 on my ipad mini. Now in order to use the Ipad, I need to enter a passcode. I cannot get pass this screen. I did
    not set it up to use a passcode. What can I do? I am not too computer savy.

    I have the same problem. I upgraded to iOS7, entered my usual passcode when prompted in setup, and when I tried to access my iPad after installation was finished it denied my passcode. I can't connect to any internet to erase it or anything because the new iOS hasn't yet been configured to a wifi network, so I can't backup from anything either.
    When I connect the iPad to iTunes, it tells me that Find My iPad must be disabled on my iPad before backup or restore can continue - and I can't access anything beyond the lock screen of my iPad at all because it refuses to accept my passcode, so I can't get to Find My iPad.

  • Anyone having issues with data when using iphone 4 on straight talk?

    ok. so i have a straight talk micro sim card purchased for installing in an iphone 4. i have found ways to get the data and mms to work perfectly using a method i found on sinfuliphone.com without jailbreaking. its been working great for last couple months. now my data is not working at all but i can still do mms msgs. was wondering if anyone else had this issue and any suggestions.

    Since Straight Talk customer service was no help at all by telling me to call apple instead of trying to help me, this is what I did to fix the issue! I am not saying it will work for you but it worked for me so what do you have to lose! First of all, I have a At&t iphone!
    The first thing I did was remove the Straight Talk APN Profile that was installed or remove any one there! Because of what I read in the Straight Talk website which was:::
    For iPhone customers who activated using anAT&T compatible SIM card, there is NO need to program APN settings as this will be done automatically.
    Ok, here is what I did after that: First I removed the SIM card from the phone, then I rebooted the phone, then I reset network settings, then put the SIM card back in and BAM, I had 3G once again!
    Please keep in mind I am no expert, It was just by chance that this worked for me! And all of this with no APN Profile what so ever! Good Luck,,,,Dano

  • My mac won't recognize ANY wifi networks.

    All of the sudden, my airport utility on my Macbook Pro won't detect any wifi networks. My other devices recognize my network, as well as about 12 others around me, but my laptop, which never had a problem before, won't find any. My computer crashes at least once daily (it's old at this point), and it did today, not unusual, and now my airport can't find any networks. Help? I'm running Yosemite.

    You have a Yosemite issue, so your best bet for a timely and informed response would be to post in the Yosemite support forum. The link is just below:
    OS X Yosemite
    Alternately, but probably not quite as appropriate, you could try a post in the MacBook Pro support forum as well:

  • I just installed Firefox 4 and now I'm having problems with my gmail. The cursor seems to "stick" or "jump" when composing a new e-mail (or cutting and pasting text). I want my smooth (and fast) gmail functionality back!

    no additional details

    You know, I was thinking if I went ahead and just created a new account, then shipped all my Home folder under the new account and used chown to fix the ownership details, then most likely the problems of my current account would be transferred to the new one.
    How about skipping all .plist files and other preferences? What if I only transferred my actual work documents from all software that I use, plus emails and what have you? Would that tend to minimize the chances of problems re-manifesting themselves in the new environment?

  • I download exclusively from itunes and I have been having issues with the music stopping after about 25 seconds either skipping to the next song or just going silent and still moving as if it is playing? how do i fix this?

    I have an ipod nano, classic and Iphone4s...i download itunes, it says it is completely downloaded, i go to play it either on my pc or on one of my devices and it plays about 24 seconds of the song and skips to the next song. Sometimes it continues to "play" as in the timer is still moving but there is no sound or picture...how do i fix this? It is really frustrating...i let it go with one or 2 songs but when it is everything I download any more I'm getting fed up. I tried going into the info on the song and options and making sure it didn't have the stop time changed (the solution that apple support gave me) Any solutions? I want to actually listen to the music I download!!!

  • I have both a PC (work) and my new Macbook Air. I am having issues with opening files that I have saved on my USB Flash Drive. The files are not corrupted because it works on my PC perfectly. Could someone advise how to fix the issue?

    Please help!!!

    Yes, I have the MS Office software for MAC that I bought from the Apple Store.
    This is the Error.
    Excel Cannot Open this File.
    The file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file.
    - I created these files on my MAC, but I have worked on it on my PC. But I can't reopen it on my MAC anymore.
