I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro. It is the wifi in my house. I get kicked off like every few minutes or so. Why is this and how can I stop it?

I think the other devices are fine. I'm not sure. It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week. I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it. It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.

Ipad keeps coming on and online, even though I have it shut off and wifi shut off, why is this and how can I stop it? After shutting it off, sometimes   10 minutes, or hours later it comes back on, even when not using it

When my Ipad has been disconnected from wifi and shut off, it keeps coming back on and online. It can happen in 10 minutes, or hours later, happens irregulary. Have noticed when it happens, I get nofications from facebook of comments and or posts.. I can switch the wifi off,    switch the iPad off and then set it beside me, hour later it dings, i have noficiations of face book things, and its online again.. why is this and how can I stop it from happening?

Yes, I went to settings and turned wifi off. Thought at first I wasnt letting it set for a sec or two before shutting the iPad off. so now I wait like a minute or two before shutting the iPad down. didnt seem to help. Tried actually logging out of facebook when I was done with it, worked for about 4 days, and now it has started coming on and coming online again,, I went through my notifications and shut things off,   Well see if it works. thank you.

On my iPod touch 4th gen the touchscreen doesn't work when I go to my music. Why is this and how can I stop it?

This is driving me crazy!! I think this may be happening becaues sometimes when I put my iPod into my iHome, the iPod says it is temporarily unavailible becaue it is over heated and has to cool down. I stopped putting it in my iHome right away but I'm curious if the touch screen is still not going to work on my music!
EXTRA:
*After I turn my iPod off and on again, the touchscreen starts back up.
*This has happened two times.

Hi,
Try doing a FULL restore of your device and then put everything back on it. Tell me if this works.

TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days. After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted. Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

Thank you for approving my feed iTunes . The only problem is, there is no art work, even though artwork was submitted correct sizes and formats were used. Why is this and how can the problem be rectified?

Thanks for getting back. Hadn't got round to re uploading the amended feed. I just did it now.
The only thing is, Feed Validator doesn't like it because of the picture size, and a couple of other things, it reeds the following:

The events may be incorrectly sorted. Try to sort the events by date, while in "Events" view.
Go to the "View" menu: Sort Photos > By Date > Descending. That should bring the most recent events to the top of the list.

When I look up the creation date for files on my Macbook I get the date and month in brackets, but not the year. Why is this and how can I look up the year?

When I look up the creation date for files on my Macbook (using "get info", or the information window in Iphoto) I get the date and month in brackets, but not the year. Why is this and how can I look up the year?

Does the Date Modified column in a window set to List view show the date correctly, or does it also display it incorrectly?
To add additional columns to a Finder (folder) window, with that window open and active open the View Options for it. You can do that by pressing Command-J or by selecting View Options from the View menu in the main menubar.

Since subscribing to iTunes match my ipad2 no longer offers the AirPlay option on the volume bar within Music, rendering my bowers Wilkins speakers useless for both iTunes and spotify. Why is this and how can I fix it?

Apple made no mention of this being an expected issue, so I can only assume it's unintentional. Otherwise I wouldn't have subscribed to Match in the first place!

How big is your library? I would recommend the following troubleshooting steps:
- Backup your library. Always a good idea before messing with things.
- Create a new library.   Refer to this article for details: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589. This won't delete your old library, you're just creating a new empty one. Also refer to this article to get back to your old library later.
- Add a few albums into this new library. Not everything, just a small sampling, as a test.
- Activate Match on this new library. You shouldn't have to re-pay, it should just say "Add Computer" or similar.
- At this point, Match should run again. With just a few albums it should complete in just a few minutes.
If iTunes doesn't crash at this point, then likely there's something about your original library that Match doesn't like - what that is I don't know, but at least you'll know it's not your PC.   If iTunes still crashes, then if could be a number of other things, but probably not your library.   My next suggestion (if you haven't already done this) is to uninstall / reinstall iTunes.   If that doesn't work, then my next ideas you won't like.

Norton Firewall logging connections from usr/sbin/nmbd every 6 seconds... What is this, and how can I stop it?

This whole situation first started with a complaint from my ISP that it appeared I had a trojan virus... around 1100-1200 messages per hour were being run through their servers via my account. I have also Anti-Virus enabled, so I was left scratching my head...
No viruses found on a full scan - so I started watching processes and connections. This nmbd process is suspicious... I don't run windows file sharing, nor have I ever. This just popped up recently. I also had two mac tech support calls, and one to Symantec - and it ran fine for a couple of days - but it's back again.
What is this, and how can I find the culprit, and remove it permanently...?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Thanks Thomas, appreciate the insight! Thanks for taking the time to help me think through this...
I have reset the password twice now...
It's only impacting one account, and the ISP says it's local to me - somewhere on my local network.
I do have a few devices on my home network. The only one with windows is my macbook air running parallels. I just use this to browse some web projects I work on (view in IE to make sure everything is looking like it should).
The passwords I have used both times - they were ones set by my isp - the type you can't remember, they seem rather strong (upper/lower case letters, numbers, symbols). That's what leads me to believe it's also local - something on my machine. And it only seems to be impacting one email account (I have 5 running in Mac Mail).
WiFi network is protected by WPA2 - just checked to be sure. All good there.
Now, in Norton Firewall log - I can see incoming and outgoing connections via Windows File Sharing/nmbd.
The reason I feel/felt that this is related to the spam sends is that once I saw the number of connects, and roughly equals the number of sends per hour of spam - I stopped the process with the firewall and suddenly my isp says the spam sends stop. That led me to believe they are related. Perhaps this virus or malware has spoofed it's name and is identifying itself as nmbd? I have no idea. Just scared to turn it all off just yet.
I did notice that Moutain Lion does not run this... (nmbd).
I did wonder about the Air sending something off of windows - but this all happened while it was off, laying on the desk next to me. It rarely gets used unless I'm testing or traveling.
I can understand nmbd being useful part of the system, I cannot understand how it would be very useful if I didn't turn it on, it connects at that frequency, and I don't have file sharing enabled. That's why I am hesitant to turn Norton off, and hope that everything just goes away. I want to try and get this problem figured out as simply turning Norton off doesn't seem like I'm taking steps to eliminate the problem. Perhaps Norton is causing other issues - and I'll be removing the software asap - but want to make sure the spam sends cease.
Let me know if that sparks any ideas... Thanks again!

TS5275 There is no Accept button next to GarageBand. Why is this and how can I fix it?

I was making a musical introduction for my YouTube channel (DiamondGriefingMC by the way, I'll provide a link for you to subscribe if you're into gaming) and had to make the in-app purchase in GarageBand to do so, but cannot do it because when I click on one of the sounds that are included in the purchase (which I don't have yet) the pop-up window that should be on-screen doesn't show up. Why is this, and what can I do to fix these pesky problems?
Read the article below for more info.

George, what is your GarageBand version? The in-App purchase is only available in GarageBand 10.0 on Mavericks, but your profile signature says "iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)". That would mean, you are running GB '11 and not 10.0.
If you are indeed using GarageBand 10.0 and do not see an accept button, it could mean, that GarageBand 10.0 has already been accepted to your AppleID or from a different AppleID than the one you are using now. Have you signed into the AppStore with the AppleID you used originally to buy GarageBand ?
Have you checked the Updates Page at the AppStore, to see, if there is an update?
How did you buy GarageBand originally?

When I download pictures from my camera, they turn out a nice big size in iPhoto; other pictures that have been e-mailed to me or imported from older libraries/other computers show up small. Why is this, and how can I make them all the larger size?

When I download pictures from my digital camera into iPhoto, they turn out a nice large size (usually almost the full screen), but when somebody e-mails me pictures and I import them into iPhoto, or when I transfer old photos from an old library into my new iPhoto library, they turn out very small--not exactly thumbnail-size, but too small to use for calendars or photo books. I don't know much about computers, so I don't know how this happened. Also, I can't find any discernible pattern to why this happens with some pictures and not others--ie: what I described above is usually true, but I have had e-mailed photos or old photos turn out the way I want them, which is in the larger size in iPhoto. Why is this happening, and how can I make all the pictures the larger size?

Some mail programs, including Apple Mail, can reduce the size of images that are attached to a message. It's happening at the sender's end, and all you can do is ask the sender for a larger image.

ITunes says I can update my software, but when I do this the system times out. Why is this and how can I get the update?

I need to update my iPad 2 to the latest operating system. When I open iTunes it says that I can do this. I start the download and update. When it's done it says it failed due to the system time out. What does this mean and how can I fix it?

disable your anti-virus and firewalls and try the update again.
