I'm sure this question has been asked before, i bought a iPad 2 from my friend and i hadn't used it for nearly 5 months then i tried to activate it and it says that there a iCloud account linked to it but my friend has NEVER used iCloud. What can i

I just want to know how get rid of a iCloud account from a ipad2 that i purchased off my friend. My friend has NEVER used iCloud so i don't know how this iCloud account got linked to this ipad2 and i don't know how to get rid of it? Please help.

If your friend is the iPhone’s original owner, tell them to take the device and its original purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.
If not, but you're able to contact the person who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
If neither of the above applies, you can't activate the device but may be able to get it refunded. Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

I just asked a question, was told to start an account because this question had been asked before - do I need to re-ask the entire question?

I downloaded a program to watch streaming video of a soccer game. Immediately after that, when opening Firefox, the screen came up as MP3Tube a search engine by Yahoo. How do i get rid of this screen and get back to Firefox?

Thanks!!! Things are so easy when you know how.

I know this question has been asked before a long time ago but NO Answer

Hello, This question has been asked before but no answer so I thought I'd ask it again since it's been a few years..
How can I replace the folder icons in a Picture Library with a thumbnail of a photo in a folder? I know I can do something very similar in the 'getting started' list by using a 'Promoted Links List' does the picture library
use the same type of methold? I'd like to see a thumbnail of one of the photos instead of a yellow file folder.
Thank you,
Joan

I'm a bit of fan of: lapointes add-ons.
If you have these installed (free of charge) it is just a powershell command. (set-spolist)
check: http://www.falchionconsulting.com/PowerShellViewer/Default.aspx?Version=SPO&Cmdlet=Set-SPOList

Sets a value that specifies the URI for the icon of the List.
Good luck!

So, I know this has been asked before. But, has anyone heard from Apple?

So, I know this has been asked before, but I'm just looking to see if anyone had heard from Apple on this at all. The minimum volume on my iPod Classic 160gb is too high, and I can't lower it. (AKA when I kill the volume, I can still hear music).
I called them today, but the rep was pretty useless. He even dropped the "well, just press pause" line on me. Took him a while to understand that when I'm in bed or studying, etc. the minimum volume is too loud, and I wanted to be able to set it lower.
The best workaround I've found so far is to buy headphones with their own volume control, but I just can't help but feel that someone shouldn't have to by additonal gear after buying this thing on account of such a basic feature exclusion.
Anyways, thanks for any help !

Wow, easy there company boy!
I've heard all of what you spit up before. And for your point of "Well, in several cases, people have complained (here in these discussion pages), that they expect the volume to be zero when turned to minimum position" that kind of ties in to why Apple should fix this.
And yeah....it's pretty much a given that "you and I have different interpretations of what constitues too loud" This is where the option to adjust the minimum volume comes in to play. (I relly feel bad for you. Honestly. Having to live everyday of your life this way must be just brutal)
The wording would be pretty simple too. " Be aware there are many instances of the minimum volume being too loud, so think twice before dropping a few hundred bucks on this"
And, you're right. It is horrible to 'whine' about being ripped off and asking if there is a possible fix for the issue. I really do apologize for that. I should just suck it up and not voice my opinion that this is not fair to consumers, and Apple shouldn't fix a known issue with a product.
I did reset & restore, I figured that was pretty much implied since I said I spoke to Support.
And I am not at all surprised that you would say "I - for one - am not surprised that Apple might say, "simply hit the pause button"." Again, I don't want it on muteReading your post made my eye twitch at least three times.
This is exactly the reason I was resitant to post on a forum. But, I got a good laugh anyways. Thanks guy!

I know this has been asked before But I Deleted 6 mths worth of Bookmark folders, Cant use Undo,

I know this has been asked before But I Deleted 10 mths worth of Bookmark folders, Cant use Undo & havent backed up (live & learn) Someone posted do a restore from "Import & Backup" My listing in Restore is only 2010-6-29 back to 2010-6-22. Is this the way to go to retrieve as much as possible or is there another solution?

Those dates are when a backup was automatically made by Firefox, not dates when you saved specific bookmarks. Try restoring the backup from the day before you deleted all those bookmarks. It will restore the entire backup file - not just what you deleted, you will lose any bookmarks that you saved after the date of the file you restore.

When I sync my iphone it says that there is newer version of the software but when I click the 'update'button I am told that 'itunes' is the latest version?

when I sync my iphone it says that there is newer version of the software but when I click the 'update' button I am told that 'itunes' is the latest version? There seem to be a few apps that are not compatible with my phone and I am wondering if that is because it is not up to date or beacuse it is a 3gs?

Snow Leopard requirements here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
I recommend no less than 2GB's of RAM. There is no download for SL, you must purchase from Apple, $29 at any Apple store. Leopard is no longer sold by Apple. About the only place you can find a retail disk is eBay, however the prices are getting ridiculous.

Any suggestions to resolve this problem

Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss) Then try the update again.

WHY ARE SECURITY QUESTIONS ,THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ASKED BEFORE,NEEDED TO DOWNLOAD CONTENT FROM ITUNES ?

IV'E TRIED THIS EVENING TO DOWNLOAD A SONG FROM ITUNES AND SECURITY QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ASKED BEFORE ARE NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE DOWNLOAD. WHY?

The security questions have been added to provide additional security for iTunes Store accounts. You will need to set up the questions and answers now, and provide those answers from time to time.
Regards.

Trying to download itunes, the window says that there is an error on page, so nothing will download.

I am trying to download itunes but the window says that there is an error on page, so nothing will download. I was able to download quicktime without any issues. I am running on windows xp and not real computer savvy, so non techy terms will help me the best, thanks much.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

Dark Epson prints. Yes I know it has been asked before!

Having invested in Lightroom 2 (and now 3) and Photoshop CS5 I am starting to get to grips with them.
However I cannot get them to print correctly with my admittedly ancient Epson R300.
For color management:
I have tried managed by printer and various settings of color management within Epson (color controls and photo enhance)
I have tried Epson profiles in Lightroom or Photoshop and colour management switched off in Epson (ICM and no color management)
None work fully satisfactorily; mainly they are too dark and none are close to the screen image and the real image in terms of colour. I take photos in Raw format and have even tried saving photo in jpg format through lightroom and then opening jpg and printing the jpg but still not good.
However if I open jpg in my old freebie Photoshop Album Starter edition 3.2 and print hey presto a reasonable print!
Why can my super sophisticated Adobe products not print pictures correctly that my free Adobe product can?
Any suggestions grateful recieved

thanks for reply
whilst display is not calibrated the picture on screen is a fair representation in terms of colour and i can print that "fair representation" via photoshop albulm or, in fact, through online commercial digital serivces like photobox or even windows photo viewer. It is just a problem with lightroom or photshop cs5

I know this has been asked before...

After about nine months, my Northbridge chipset fan has gone from simply noisy to an irritating vibration. I know that the Zalman Fanmate 2 will slow it down to 5000 rpm, but it sounds like the fan is on its way out. I'm reluctant to spray it with WD 40 because I don't want to remove the fan unless I'm going to replace it. I did e-mail tech support at MSI and they probably will send me a new fan. What are some other good aftermarket options? I appreciate any advice that people can offer. BTW, other than the fan, I've had no problems with the board, which is about as good as you can get without going to SLI.

Will it fit on the Neo-4 Platinum? It seems to me that I have a few options here:
(1) Buy a Zalman Fanmate 2 and turn down the fan. It used to run regularly at 7,670 RPM, but lately, it's running at 8,000 RPM+ and is rattling things. Yet, Speedfan says the temp of the Northbridge is 17 or 18C, so it's not overheating.
(2) Buy a general four channel fan controller. I like the Zalman that fits in the 3.5 bay, but my case has a plastic door that closes, so I may need one with just push buttons. Any advice on that is appreciated. The problem with that idea is that the back fan is a 120mm Antec Smartcool and the front is the Antec 120mm that came with the case set on medium.
(3) Buy a Vantec Iceberg copper heatsink and fan, some Arctic Silver 5 and the Arctic Silver clean kit, pull the motherboard out (next time I get the case with a removable motherboard tray) and install it.
(4) Buy this(http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=872908&CatId=99) or (http://www.quietpcusa.com/acb/showdetl.cfm?&DID=8&User_ID=760103&st=7443&st2=-49144413&st3=35057438&Product_ID=91&CATID=5), cut some pins off with my Dremel Moto-Tool and install.
(5) Buy this (http://www.quietpcusa.com/acb/showdetl.cfm?&DID=8&User_ID=760103&st=7443&st2=-49144413&st3=35057438&Product_ID=359&CATID=5), cut some pins off--probably still won't fit though--and install.
My video card just clears the Northbridge but probably can be worked around. Next to it I put an Antec blue LED cyclone blower to help keep the card, and the system, cool. On high, it's still not that loud. Even with two 120mm Antec fans, the system still hits 41C during gaming. Thanks for the advice so far guys.

Bluetooth. This has been asked before but no answer.

Why is there no function in Siri, or other app, to switch on/off wifi and bluetooth on the iPhone. It's such a pain especially when in the car.

There has been no answer because we're not Apple here, just users like yourself. We have no idea as to why Apple does or doesn't do something. Speculation is strictly forbidden by the Terms of Use of this forum.

Ok I know this has been asked before but....

OK AFTER I MADE MY OWN RINGTONE AND THEN DRAG IT OVER TO MY IPHONE....I SEE IT IN MY RINGTONE FOLDER BUT IN THE IPHONE UNDER SETTING IT DOESNT SHOW AND I ALSO HAVE TWO OF THE SAME RINGTONES THAT WAS ALREADY THERE!!!!
IM TOOOOO LOST I BEEN FOOLING AROUND WITH IT FOR LIKE 3HR NOW TRYING DIFFERENT THINGS....WHAT AM I DOING WRONG??
PLEEEEEEASE HELP!!

Well since the only official way for ringtones is to buy them, it is hard for us to help you since you really didn't tell us how you tried to circumvent the only officially supported way.
And as mentioned, turn off caps lock.

Forgive me if this has been asked before...

I'm looking to get Final Cut Express. I've moved on from my love affair with iMovie '08. I know that it's a different animal. I'm ready for it (I left iPhoto to go to Aperture and never looked back). Learning the software is not my concern. I can do it.
What I'm interested in is what I need to learn AWAY from the computer. I'll be producing talking-head interviews, small documentaries, family movies, small church events. What I do in iMOvie now is one camera action that I edit down to a minute or so. I don't foresee, in the near future, going past five minutes for my longest project.
Do I learn cinematography? Movie making? I just don't know where to turn. Can anyone offer any advice on that? Thanks so much!
Scott

Hi Scott Hampton-
It sounds as though you need a publication that is easy to quickly understand similar to these:
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Filmmaking
Filmmaking for Dummies
Teach Yourself Film Making
Do realize that this will not make your films any good or even pleasurable to watch. That will come with the experience that you currently do not have. Also keep in mind that "interning" with no experience may get you a job carrying around a bunch of gear and labeling blank tapes and fetching coffee for those that already have experience.
The other thing you do not indicate is what type of film making you want to do. There is a huge difference between knowing where and when to stand during a wedding and the filming of a music video in the streets of a busy city, as an example.
Luck-
