I'm having this weird problem that I have never experienced before.

So, my charger isn't charging my Macbook Pro. Yet, under the battery thing on the toolbar it says "Power Source: Power Adaptor" so it's showing the charger is working just fine. And its not showing the orange light at all, but when I take the plug off of my computer it shows the orange light yet its not even connected and the percentage is 6% so its not adding to the charge (and luckily not decreasing the battery level). So, how can I fix this problem? Anybody experience something like this?

Either the Charger or battery is going bad, as you may have guessed. You can try an SMC & PRAM to see if those help, but aside of that... SMC: SHIFT-CONTROL-OPTION-Power and pressed and let go at the same time. PRAM: OPTION-COMMAND-R-P hold these and turn on the computer but keep these held down until you hear the startup sound twice.

If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

Hi,
Your best bet at this point then is to contact iTunes Support and get them to straighten this out for you:
https://expresslane.apple.com/Issues.action
Select the options that best apply to your issue. You will have a chance to provide a written description before you submit. iTunes Support will get back to you via email, usually within 24 hours. Be sure to check your Junk/Spam email folder if you don't hear back by then.
They should be able to sort it out for you...
Good luck!
Cheers,

I have os x 10.5.8 and noticed a menu extra that I have never seen before. Is there a way to identify it? I tried to delete it i.e. comm drag, didn't work.

I have os x 10.5.8 and noticed a menu extra that I have never seen before. Is there a way to identify it? I tried to delete it i.e. comm + drag, didn't work.

If you can't CMD+ drag it off, try this...
You've probably got a couple of corrupt preference files.
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist
where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
This will reset your Menu Bar to the default, you'll need to go through System Preferences to reset the ones you need. (If they are already checked, uncheck them first and then recheck them).
reboot

I have this weird problem. I have an iPhone. Next to where it says "slide to unlock", there is a camera button that just appeared. Is there a way I can delete it?

I have a weird problem. I have an iPhone 3G. I just got the camera sliding button next to where it says "slide to unlock". Is there a way I can delete that then restore my original screen?

It actually says my iPhone is 3G Version 5.1.
Then you must have a 3GS, not a 3G. iOS5 cannot be installed on a 3G.
Either way, the camera icon cannot be removed. It gives you quick access to the Camera but not your Camera Roll without unlocking, assuming you're using a passcode.

Hi sir...my firefox is having this peculiar problem ..i have tried all the steps given in the prevoius page..but youtube video is not buffering...

initially it buffers for a second...suddenly message appears 'error occured..'...only youtube is having this problem..other website videos buffers fine..i have tried all the solutions you have given in the these pages...but its not working..please help me out...

Thank you for your question, we are currently investigating the cause of this and a work around. Currently there was a blocking of a number of ips in India that has had a large affect on Firefox/Youtube users.
Suggestions for troubleshooting this issue have been:
*"Clear the Cache":
Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
*"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
*As well as temporarily changing dns to 8.8.8.8
*Flushing the dns cache on the computer
*File may be unavailable, please try again later.
*Disable all video players from [about:addons] and see if it will play from the default HTML5 player.
Please post back with your results, it could help other users. Thank you.

Big problem that I have never heard of before...

My iPod had corrupted music files on it, so I decided to restore the whole thing to see if that fixed the problem, after restoring I had issues syncing my iPod again. I have about 2200 songs in my library and it would only upload about 150 or so before it stuck on the 150th or so song. It would say it was still uploading but I waited about a half hour and still nothing. I tried restoring the iPod multiple times, and one time my computer froze while restoring so I unplugged the iPod and when I tried to turn it on, it made a weird beeping noise. The backlight turned on but there was no display. Resetting had no effect on this problem. I tried to plug it in the computer to restore again, but the computer just said waiting for ipod to be ready.
I'm pretty sure it has to be serviced or replaced because of this problem, but I am not even sure if I am still within warranty or not. I do not feel like shelling out money that I do not have to repair this problem when it technically is not my fault.
I just would like to know what I should do.

Sorry no one jumped right in to solve your problem for you. I read your mind but I still couldn't tell when you got your iPod as it appeared to be empty.
You can go here http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/ and on the right hand side in about the middle of the page you can enter the serial number of your iPod and see what support options you have. If it is still in warranty if you will look up a bit you can do an online service request. If you live near an Apple Store you can make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have them look at it.
If it is out of warranty you can go to http://www.iresq.com to see about service, or use Google to find other places who work on iPods.
It does sound like you have a hardware issue, but you could try Disk Utility on it and do a Repair.

After updating my iPad mini to iOS 6.2 iTunes decided to wipe everything off and seem to take my account back into the past as all music, apps, videos was gone! Only a few songs where left that I have never seem before? How do I get my liabary back?

Today I got a iPad mini but after updating it my pc and iTunes decided to clear my whole iTunes library including manual downloads as well as purchased items (apps, music etc) it seems iTunes has gone back in time as there are only a few songs on my iTunes which are really old ones of mine. How do I get my current iTunes library back? Thanks.

Slone,
I finally decided to turn this annoyance into an opportunity. After a lot of experimenting I found that my iPad was just fine under 7.1 if I simply restored it as new. I have a lot of time on my hands and I had 1424 apps on my iPad! This is why every attempt to restore took so long.
I decided to restore as new, spend a day restoring the apps I really used. Doing so gave me a quick iPad with only bout a quarter of the storage used.
Granted it was a pain in the arse, but I wrote it off as in the old days when you had to do this with windows 95 just to keep a stable system.
I DO have some data in a few files of the now unused backup but a quick google search finds a couple Mac programs out there that will allow you go extract audio recordings, app data files etc. from the backup. I'll do that someday if I even miss the files I've probably forgotten that are there.
Anyway, there was nothing wrong with my hardware. I think there were just some troublesome setup items that 7.1 didn't like. Once set up as new, the ipad was fine.
Good luck!

Iphone 4, having a weird problem /: can't seem to fix it!

So i have been having my iphone for a while, i have no warranty on the phone now. I have this weird problem that when i scoll down my messages and stuff i can see the outline of the message kind of show rainbowish colors that sort of show a bit when i scroll, right near the border of the message. its kind of annoying at times, also there are times when i press the home button, right when i get to my wallpaper, the outline of the letters when i text are there like very very faint, they disappear after for a while but then come back sort of like a glitch, and i cant fix it at all. then i would see faint horizontal lines, i would notice them when i use the camera, they disappear also. can anyone help me with this or suggest something?

Screen lag is normaly the LCD itself. But try restoring the iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

HT201272 I am tryying to make a song purchase on iTunes from the only computer I have made purchases from. iTunes has just told me that I have never made a purchse from this computer before. It is asking me security questions I have no idea what the answe

I have checked the emails that I have on file and they are correct. When I press the "Send email" button to help reset security information it is sending it to an email address that I have never ever had! Why is it not sending the email to one of the two emai addresses that ARE on file? I have no idea why it is even sending anything to that email adress or where it came from.
I have money on my account. My account is now locked. It is sending instructions to an emai address that I have never seen before. I cannot find anyway to get phone support. I have a feeling this is going to take at lest a week if not longer to fix.
Can anything be done...??

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

TS1631 Iphone 4 microphone not picking up sound properly. Is there a solution to this? Or anyone else having the same problem that have solved it.

Iphone 4 microphone not picking up sound properly. Is there a solution to this? Or anyone else having the same problem that have solved it.

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.
If you've gone through ALL the troubleshooting steps and you're still having the problem, then you most likely have a hardware issue and will need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

I am having a weird problem with my phone every since it was updated this last time. I can sync movies from my computer to my iphone but any movies I buy with my phone I can not sync to the computer. But I redownload it to the computer and can then sync.

I for the first time since buying my iphone and ipods for almost three years am concedering getting rid of them as I am getting tired of this problem. I can sync anything from my computer to the iphone. I can not sync movies bought on the iphone to my computer. I have tried everything and spent days trying to trouble shoot. I literally have bought hundreds of movies off Itunes but will not buy any thing else until I can figure this problem out. I have uninstalled Itunes reinstalled, troubles shooted using the itunes trouble shooter and reset my phone and nothing works.
When I try to sync from my phone to the computer it says it can not be done because the iphone is not hooked up to the computer. I have only had these problesm since the new update not before. I have bought new cables twice to see if it helped and has not. Both my kids have Ipods, I have a Iphone and was planning on buying two Ipads for the kids for Christmas but not if I can fix this.

You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

Since i got the new Iphone 4s it constantly drops calls. Apple have replaced the phone with another new iphone 4s but i am still having the same problem. I have checked with vodapohe that there is no issue from there end, given a new sim, still drops out
