I work for a charity and am organising a fund raiser. Does apple donate appliances to charities?

Well the title says it all!! I work for a charity and am organising a fund raiser and I'd like to know if Apple would donate a device to us to use as a prize for our fund raiser.
The charity I work for is based in the UK and our main aims and objectives are to get as many young people of all backgrounds on the water to take part in various watersports such as sailing, windsurfing and stand up paddleboarding. These experiences help young people to gain new skills, maintain an active lifestyle, become well balanced and mature individuals and also just shows them a good time. It is a very important part of life to have fun and experience new things and all of our staff and volunteers are passionate about what we do.

Apple don't generally do that, but you could always try contacting their European HQ:

Hi, I can't get Firefox to work with "ScreenPrint Platinum". It has worked for a year and longer. However, now it does not accept commands via "prtScn" key .

I'm currently using version 5.4.0.4 of ScreenPrint Platinum and it works fine with Safari and Goggle Chrome, but I prefer Firefox. Has a change been made with later versions of Firefox. I'm using version 18.0.2 and would appreciate your feedback. Thanks, Richard

Do you know whether ScreenPrint installs an add-on into Firefox? If so, it's possible that during an update it became disabled. You could check that theory here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
Note that disabled extensions are "grayed out" and listed at the bottom after all the enabled extensions.
As far as I know, Firefox does not intercept the PrtScn key for its own purposes, but it's possible that another add-on is doing that. Or if you have interacted with a Flash player in the current page, the player may be intercepting it.
If you need a Firefox-specific workaround, you can try this extension: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/fireshot/ Fireshot].

Iphone 6 (Verizon,64GB,space gray) microphone works for text dictation and Siri but stopped working for calls and voice memos.

My iphone 6 the micorphone has stoppped working unless I speak loudly right into it and its still not clear during calls and voice memos. But it works just fine for Siri and text dictation. I use the earbuds for work so not sure how long its been going on. Only change is I updated to iOS 8.1.3. Not sure if I should exchange my phone or if its a software glitch since the same mic seems to work for some things and not others. Any ideas would be apreciated.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

Auto To working for one material and not working for other material

Hi,
Hope everybody is doing fine.
I have configured the auto TO. Its working fine for one material and not working for the other material. I checked the material master and wm 1,2 views have the same fileds / values. What could be wrong?
I didn't setup the back ground processing job. Is that is affecting it?
thanks for any help.
regrads,

You are right but then what could be wrong? Its working for one material and not working for otehr material? Any clue?

Multicast works for a day and then stops

I'm running multicast in unicast mode on our WLC because I can't enable PIM on wired side yet for a couple reasons. It works consistently on 3 out of 6 WLAN's. And the weird thing is the other 3 WLAN's will work for a day, and when I come in the next day, multicast traffic has stopped flowing. I have verified this through IGMP snooping, using a bonjour browser, testing airplay, and using packet capture on a wireless NIC. 2 of the WLAN's are configured almost identically, but one works consistently day after day, and the other only works for a day after resetting the wlan. I have been coming in the morning and changing a single setting back and forth just to reset the WLAN so it will work for the rest of the day. I'm just writing this to see if someone can think of why it would work fine for the shole day and then stop working by the next morning. It's not an IGMP timeout setting, because it works for much longer than the timeout and behaves the same way even without IGMP snooping on. It started doing this after upgrading to 7.0.240.0. We have very little amount of multicast traffic on wireless, and low channel utilization. It does the same exact thing whether 802.11a or 802.11g so I don't think it has to do with data rates. When I have IGMP snooping on, and on the WLAN's where it's not working, the controller will see the multicast group join message from the client, but the client doesn't see the IGMP query from the controller. It shouldn't be wired config related since it's unicast mode. I've tried with and without broadcasting enabled. Any ideas?

Okay, so I discovered two things, but I still don't know what caused this problem. When I was running 7.0.230.0 I had increased my EAP-Broadcast key interval to 86400 due to a bug. This seems to be related to the fact that on the wlan's where multicast was not working, it stopped by the next day. When I backed this interval down to 3600 the multicast stopped working after an hour instead of a day. So that's why I believe it was somewhat related to the broadcast key, since that key is used for multicast.
What I realized is that multicast was working on all the wlan's on all AP's that had been rebooted since the controller upgrade (They had been rebooted due to a switch losing power). This is weird because all the AP's were rebooted when they received their own 7.0.240.0 software upgrade, so I don't know why they would have needed to be rebooted again. Anyway, I rebooted a few more AP's and multicast works properly on all wlan's on those. I'm just replying to my own thread here in case someone has a similar problem after upgrading your controller - try rebooting all your access points again. Or maybe reboot after changing EAP-Broadcast Key interval.

I work for the County and we purchased a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 long ago. The person that did the order is no longer here. All I have is the CD Disk that is new but i did not know the key code is. Is there a way to get the keycode for this?

It would not work anyway. The activation servers have been retired and Adobe has provided a new CS2 download along with a new serial number for CS2 owners.

My PowerBook G4 says that it's connected to wifi, but it still no internet connection. The connection will work for a while, and then I'll have to run diagnostics and it will work again for a few minutes and then stop working again. What's going on??

I have been unsuccessfully trying to extend the wifi of my Time 2T Capsule with an Airport Extreme 2nd Gen. It works for a while and then loses configuration. I have done everything possible, disconnected it, reset it but it keeps failing, what to do?

What model and firmware is the 2TB TC?
What firmware is the AE?
Does the AE get good signal from the TC in its current location?
Signal can only be extended that is received intact.
Is it extending on 5ghz? As I remember it a Gen2 AE is only single band, although you can choose either 2.4ghz or 5ghz.
I am fairly sure you are going to tell me your TC is AC model..
I would do a couple of things..
1. Fix the wireless name, make it short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
2. Fix the wireless channel for 2.4ghz so it is not going to jump around.
3. Get real results from the AE in its current location for signal strength.. this is really only possible on v5 utility. And that is a double pain with Mavericks because you cannot use it.
Apple have removed all the useful diagnostics from the airport utility. There is next to nothing left. So you need to use the computer and its diagnostics to find signal levels in the location.

I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor.Can we re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive for a old macbook?Just one example.

I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor who we get to buy all our Apple products from.Can we (university) re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive once the hard drive gets replaced? How can we as the university IT department legally re-install macosx on a imac,macbook, macbookair etc. We would like to load customized macosx imaging software onto the mac machines(imac, macbook, etc ). The university has its own IT workshop and we would like our users to get their laptops back in the shortest turnaround time.

We're not "Apple Inc." here, just users like you.
So whatever we say is not an official statement, nor does it in any way, shape, or form represent the official or unofficial policies or opinions of Apple, Inc.
But I'll offer my quick opinion, having worked in information-systems and technology support in a wide variety of environments over many years.
Question #1. "NO!"
No tech support nor repair facility, even if "Apple-authorized", is automatically empowered to install or upgrade OS X on a replacement hard drive just because it is more convenient or time-efficient. When the repair is complete, the student should be expected to (re)install the operating system themself*!
Nurturing students (and occasionally dragging them, screaming and kicking!) as budding computer-, tablet-, smartphone-users to become digitally self-sufficient is a worthy goal that any institution of higher education must pursue.
Making students totally dependent upon "Mother Support" for every little thing about their personal digital devices is a grave disservice to both the students and the people who provide the support. Support-mothered students do become life-long digital dependents, instead of taking the required time to learn enough about the care and feeding of their digital "pets" to sustain them. Entreprenurial students may choose to become 'experts' and actually help each other with their devices, and even make money doing it. Some students may even be inspired/coerced to pursue a career in tech support!!!
*By all means, if the student requests additional help (re-installing the OS), then the University should charge the student a fair price for the service, provided that the user provides the OS on original or upgrade media, or in the case of the 'digital download' upgrades (for OS X 10.7 and 10.8) provides proof of purchase for the OS upgrade, or the original purchase receipt or other recognized documentation for the purchase of the computer showing the version of OS installed when purchased. Students need to learn about personal responsibility, economics ("What is MY time really worth"?), and proper record-keeping too!
Question #2. Regarding the customized imaging software, provide it on media or a link for students to download and install it. Make it their responsibility!

My time capsule worked for several weeks and is now telling me backup disk not available? What to do?

My time capsule worked for several weeks and now is not backing up. Tells me backup disk not available? Any suggestions?

This is a lion bug..
Generally just rebooting the TC will get it back. Otherwise you need to reset the TC and redo its setup.
Tell us a bit more.. but there is as yet no work around or fix for lion.
Certain things help.. but wireless is also a weak link. It will generally work better by ethernet.
Try and get back if it is still bugging you.. I can suggest some other things.. but I do not know of or read a bullet yet.
(Snow and TC firmware 7.5.2 which I run do not have this issue.. so the bug was introduced with Lion and 7.6 firmware)

Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Some users have reported that Apple is aware of the issue.
