I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s
I have an AirPort Extreme running the latest software. I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s, iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 3G, my girlfriend's iPhone 4. The only devices that will connect to the network are our MacBook Pros and iPads, (1 and 2). I have reset the airport to default settings, I've restored my iPhone, I've even disabled the password. I am still unable to join my open airport extreme wifi network. PLEASE HELP!
Saying you tried everything isn't helpful. Perhaps describing in detail what you've done would allow people to better assist you.
If you're ever experiencing strange problems connecting to any wifi point you can always try resetting your network settings on your iPhone itself. This solves the majority of wifi problems.
To do this go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will clear all of your saved wifi hotspots and passwords, and hopefully solve your issue.
Please try this and respond with your results.

I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5
I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5. It has the latest software downloaded too. Keeps saying unable to join network after I type in the password. All my other devices are able to join but just not the iphone. I've called Verizon and my internet provider and they have been unable to help. I had no problems with my iphone 4 with this very same issue. Please help or I'll be forced to return this phone. I have 13 days left.
Try power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then on your phone go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, and try joining your network again. Note: resetting network settings will erase passwords for previously joined networks on your phone.

If you tried everything and still get USB Parent d...
For those that have tried everything and still receive the USB Parent fatal error.
I have tried everything on these forums and spend several hours getting it working. Finally I got it to working and with the latest version.
Here is what I did:
1. Run Nokia PC Suite Cleaner (No reboot)
2. Run a search through windows drive (probably c for anything "Nokia" and deleted.
3. Run registry cleaner (CCleaner).
4. Took groa's advice and added registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Wdf01005]
"SystemComponent"=dword:00000001
5. Checked through Add/Remove programs and deleted anything Nokia related.
6. Reboot computer.
7. Plugged in phone to charger.
8. Folled PC Suite installation and plugged in phone when prompted.
All drivers were installed successfully and phone is now recognized.
I hope this helps anyone that is still having this annoying problem.Glad that worked for you. I don't know what step did it, but it did and that's what matters.
*** I forgot to mention for step 3. I ran CCleaner for both Cleaner and Registry (making a registry backup). And lol I typo'd step 8. folled = followed.
For anyone else that doesn't know how to make a registry entry, here's how:
1. Make a new notepad file and add the following:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Wdf01005]
"SystemComponent"=dword:00000001
2. Save the file as X.reg (the X can be whatever).
Then you just click the file and import into your registry.

I am trying to set up my new iPad (1st time owner) and it tells me it is unable to join my home wifi network. What do I do now? This is the only wifi network I have...
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

I want to enter the password for a secured wifi network on several iphones. If I do this, is it possible for the end users to somehow extract the ip address and password information and use it from a pc/laptop/other mobile device. For security reasons, I don't want them to be able to to this.
Please advise,
Thanks.If you look at the top left of your screen you will either see a 3G (or 4G if you have AT&T) or you will see the wi-fi symbol. If you don't see the wi-fi symbol you are connecting to Gmail through your cellular data plan, not via wi-fi.
To answer your question, it doesn't happen often but when it does the steps I mentioned above will normally resolve it. Hopefully you won't have any further problem with this. -
Please return my money or give me credit on my accout. The downloan would not work and have tried everything. I purchased it from amazon and works great. So please credit my account. THANKS
THANK YOU SO MUCH stussaar!
My Mother did what you said for the Spam and my number was in there about 100 times. She deleted all them. Deleted me as a contact and then rebooted, then she text me and I text her back and I went right into the Spam again. I told her to tell TMobile this so then can maybe help and remove my number from Spam on their end.\
Thanks you so much! you got us 99.999 % the way there!!
I appreciate your help!!!! I hope this worked also for your problem!!
Thanks again!!!

I tried everything and still can't install-is there an executable?
I read all the posts in the shockwave forum and tried every
suggestion and it won't install. First, it was an endless loop of
always asking me to accept the active X control, click on the gold
bar, etc, back and forth. I tried accepting all cookies, turning
off my firewall, changing my security settings to downright
dangerous, and now there is nothing on the download page but that
blank box and I get one prompt to run an active x control and then
nothing. My time settings are correct, I uninstalled the old
version and now I have no shockwave at all, I have tried
everything! The only thing I haven't tried is uninstalling Flash
because I'm afraid if I do that I won't be able to reinstall that
either. When I go to the support page there is a link to download
an executable file but that just takes you back to the original
installation page and the same problems.
Please help me if you can! I'm getting gray hairs over this.
I know I always have problems installing shockwave when the new
version comes out but I can never remember how to do it. Why don't
you just put a link to a file you can download to your desktop and
install? Shockwave support team, are you there? I can't even figure
out how to contact Adobe support to get help other than this
forum.Thank you very much for your reply. I really appreciate it. I
found the link you just posted by doing a google search for "I
can't install Shockwave". When I clicked on your link it didn't
work for me but it looks like the same thing. Here it is again for
anyone else:

Are the links wrong on the download page or something? -

I've tried everything and still no response on Ipod
My duaghter has a Ipod mini, Pink in color. I plug it in and it says go to apple.com/ support for help. Did that ordered new battery and put it in and still ends up showing me a frown face and a battery that is not charging on the screen when I plug it in. tonight I found out that her friends over this weekend pluged in to our computer to download songs and their ipods are now frozen. I'm about ready to throw this thing in my lake out back. Sure would like to know if any body has any good ideas. Thanks, Shawn
"tonight I found out that her friends over this weekend pluged in to our computer to download songs and their ipods are now frozen"
That's a little odd and maybe there's a problem with your computer? There's also a pretty comprehensive post here about the sad iPod icon.
The sad iPod icon is one of the most difficult errors to cure as it usually means a hard drive problem.

I have tried everything, and still... I am lost.
Alright. I found my iPod... Its a really old one, I think it is the fifth generation. It is the really big, 20GB, touch wheel. Anywho. I When I found it, it was locked. I tried all the five R's... And now its telling me that I have to plug it into the external power supply. My question is... What do I do if I dont have an external power supply?
It isn't a fifth generation model. It is an earlier model since 5th generation models started at 30Gb and went up from there.
Anyway, one thing you might try is taking it to your local Best Buy, Radio Shack, Wal-mart, or any other store that has iPod dock compatible radios and speaker systems on display that are plugged in and that are designed to charge the ipod while playing from them. Plug your iPod into one of those and see if that gets you past that screen.

getting undefined message, not sure what happened. I did clean out my add remove programs and am not sure if I deleted a java program or what, but went on java and uploaded the necessary software, still unable. Even tried the add ons..etc
It seems it doesn't matter as since update for my plug ins firefox as a whole as slowed way way down and running resources like crazy. Need to fix this. I have been checking around for answers and dont seem to find an easy solution or update to fix this so ff is fast again. It also doesnt seem to be just when on a page with flash on it. It slows all pages down. Once have like 3 pages / tabs open. Fast computer to so this should be fast as heck like it normally is. Thats one main reason for firefox. Cause it runs fast but now slow as can be as of 3 days ago. I updated flash, all plugins and extensions but still slow.
Anybody have any fixes for this and my like posted issue please share. I will be creating a thread myself on this as well so can post there to if dont mind. -
I've tried everything and still my Firefox says it's still running.
I've tried restarting my computer, deleting Firefox and re installing, deleting the parent lock file, and it still wont open. I would love to have my Firefox back :(
You may have checked this, but since you didn't mention it: if you open the Windows Task Manager, can you find and terminate any instances of the firefox.exe process? Ctrl+Shift+Esc opens the Task Manager, then click the Processes tab. It's worth clicking the button to view processes started by other users just in case.

HT201352 Tried everything and still get ipod disabled on screen Help please if possible
I have tried to reset and erase and all the things online and I still get ipod disabled on the screen I don't know what is wrong Can someone offer a different suggestion
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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 most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
