I keep getting error message -42408 when I try to open ITunes Store.I sent a email to support and they sent me a link from Roy B,I tried both of his sugegstions and neither worked.Anyone have any other ideas????

Did you get anywhere with this, ikeaheerlen?
I am having the same sort problem (although my keyboard is recognized so I'm much further along than you).
I had a MacBook Pro with an XP SP3 partition and a Windows 7 partition on it.
I switched to a Mac Pro and wanted to migrate them over to it.
I used WinClone to make backups of both partitions and transferred the WinClone images to the Mac Pro.
I manually created the partitions and restored the WinClone images into each one.
But VMware wouldn't recognize either one.
So I deleted them both, and let Boot Camp Assistant (re-)create a single Boot Camp partition.  Then I restored the Windows 7 WinClone image into it.
Ever since then all I get is "BOOTMGR is missing" error.
I thought maybe since I had dual-boot working (with a boot manager) in the old MacBook Pro setup, that the boot manager must've lived on the Windows XP SP3 partition, and it's completely missing from the Windows 7 partition.  So I figured I needed to recreate it somehow.
After using the Windows 7 DVD ISO disc image to boot from, and trying several automated/manual steps, I can now actually get VMware to recognize the Boot Camp partition as being one, but when it tries to set it up for use with VMware, it complains that it isn't ready because it must have shut down incorrectly.  It says to boot into Windows, then do a clean shutdown.  But when I select the Boot Camp partition from Startup Disk, it boots from it but I still get the "BOOTMGR is missing" error even in a 'native' Boot Camp boot
I've tried all the steps I can find (including manual "bcdedit" steps booted from the Windows 7 DVD disc image) to no avail.  I don't know what else to try at this point ...

    Interesting ...
    Your posting title mentions iPhone, but you seem to be talking about iPad.
    Also, the article you attached references Macs ...
    Anyway, here's a guide to setting up email for iPad:

  • My i phone will not open my yahoo mail, but sits and spins. I have reset the phone and network and still no help. Any other ideas?

    My i-phone stopped receiving e-mail on a regular basis.  Rather, it will sit and spin trying to load and then stop.   Usually, sometime in the night, it will all of a sudden load all of my mail, but then will not load new mail again.  I have updated and reset the phone and network, and the problem remains the same.  Does anyone know a fix for this issue?

    Try deleting the account, restarting your phone and then reinputting the account.

  • I can no longer scroll with the button on my touch pad. Have tried everything on Firefox help and still can't scroll....HELP please.

    I have just updated to the Firefox 4 Beta and from having no problems at all with the previous version I can now no longer scroll. I have reloaded my touch pad drivers and also been onto "about:config" and altered various things suggested by 'firefox help' and still no luck. The scroll button on the touch pad does still work as I can still scroll in Thunderbird and any of the other programs that I use, just not with Firefox any longer. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Many thanks.

    Since today the scrolling started to work for me. Was there a fix auto installed? I havent updated anything that I know about.
    I might have uninstall an old Java JRE, don't remember when I did it, could that have done it?

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • I downloaded a trial of photoshop.  It runs for a minute or so, then a message displays saying that photoshop has stopped.  No error codes, just the message. I have exhausted the "try this" stuff that I can find.  Any other ideas would be appreciated.

I have exhausted the "try this" stuff that I can find.  Any other ideas would be appreciated.  I would also like to know what some alternative applications might be.  This trial does not give me confidence in Adobe's product.

    I saw a similar question deeper into the forum right after I posted.  I followed the fix steps and it took care of the problem.
    Thanks for getting back to me.  I am good to go.

    Bill,
    I know your case well. It comes with the Antec SL350, which has enough power for your system.
    I would try different RAM just to see if you have a bad stick.
    Take Care,

    I have tried all of the above and still can't get my ipad to respond

    Everything? Did you see the very last part about restoring the iPad and did you notice that there is another link in that step in case you cannot restore the iPad?
    Symptoms
    Your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may occasionally stop responding to buttons, switches, or touchscreen input and may exhibit one or more of the symptoms listed below.

    Does not wake from sleep after pressing the Sleep/Wake button
    Does not turn on (or power on) when pressing any button
    Appears frozen or unresponsive
    Is unable to "Slide to Unlock" or "Slide to Power Off"
    If a single application is not responding or freezes when it opens, you can force it to close
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. When the red slider appears, release the Sleep/Wake button.
    Instead of dragging the red slider, press and hold the Home button for six seconds.

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds.
    If there is no video, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on

    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Home button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, let the device to continue to charge until it turns on.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes
