ICloud turned on system, but will only give me the welcome screen

Https://www.icloud.com will default to the /ipad_welcome URL.

Thanks. I am reading about accessing iCloud under my user name using a browser in a MacFormat magazine. It claims I can, but I tend to think you are correct. It works on the MacBook Pro, but not on any of my iPhones or iPads.

    If you change your tool to the "Direct Selection Tool" (A) then you should be able to adjust the area for you to type in...

  • I bought an iPad and an iTunes card, I want to buy an application from the Apps store but it only gives me the option of credit card.  How can I buy Pages with my iTunes card to my iPad? thank you

    I bought an iPad and an iTunes card, I want to buy an application from the Apps store but it only gives me the option of credit card.  How can I buy Pages with my iTunes card to my iPad? thank you

    Have you redeemed your iTunes card to an account associated with an Apple ID?
    Once you have your iPad associated with an Apple ID AND you have an account with a credit card associated with the same Apple ID AND you have some 'store credit' (from redeeming your iTunes card) then purchases use the store credit before they charge the credit card, so you should be ok!
    Personally, I use 'store credit' as a way to monitor whether or not there have been any 'unauthorised' purchases because as soon as the store credit is zero, the security code from the credit card is needed for further purchases!  It does mean that I have sometimes to top up store credit before making a purchase, but 'better safe than sorry'!

  • Photoshop Elements 9 only opens to the Welcome screen.

    Elements 9 only opens to the Welcome screen. Organiser and Edit will not open. I cannot deactivate the programe so I can re-install. I have tried pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift but nothing happens.

    Hi Barry,
    The Welcome screen sometimes leaves a process running which can cause a problem which is why I suggested bypassing it.
    If you reboot the system and avoid the welcome screen by using the direct link does that work?
    When you tried resetting the preferences (Ctrl + Alt + Shift when starting up the editor from the direct link), did you see the message asking you to confirm the deletion? You need to hold the keys down all the time it is loading.
    Turning to the organizer, try loading it from the direct link above but hold the shift key down whilst it loads. It should enter the Catalog Manager. Select your current catalog and click on the Repair button to see if it finds any errors.
    Good luck
    Brian

  • Satellite L500 will not load past the 'welcome' screen

    Hi,
    My Toshiba Satellite L500 laptop will not load past the 'welcome' screen. The cursor thing just keeps going around and around but won't go to my desktop.
    Last night it went into some temporary profile and it had a message saying 'your other profile cannot load at this time please try again later'
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kara

    The error message is not known to me and also searching in google didnt get any hints.
    Possibly your Windows OS is muddled up.
    Did you try to boot Win 7 in safe mode?
    Try this. Restart your notebook, tap the F8 key.
    In advanced boot options choose the option called Safe Mode.
    If the notebook does not allow booting in Safe Mode, try the option Last Good Known Configuration.
    If this didnt help, try Repair my Computer. Here you can choose between different settings.
    The one which could solve this is HDD recovery which helps you to set the notebook to factory settings. But this means also that your HDD would be formatted!
    So be aware of this!

  • Trying to load ff on new supported tablet, but it only gives me the option of going to ff already loaded on my phone

    Whenever I try to load ff on my asus transformer tablet, the download only gives me the option to load it to my phone--that already has ff downloaded. There's a box in the download that lists the devices to send the download to, and the only option it will let me choose is my phone, and it won't let me add the tablet. This tablet is a ff supported device.

    Have you tried searching the Android market on the device for Firefox?

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 shows mpeg-4 files as a thumbnail, but will only show as a black screen when you double click on it, other video files are able to be played and are viewable.  Why?

    iphoto 9.5.1 shows mpeg-4 video files as a thumbnail, but will not play the video.  When try to play video it shows as a black screen.  Other video files play ok- (mpeg, .mov).  What do I have to do to view them?   If I use imovie they will play, but I sometime like to view them in iphoto.  It worked before I upgraded to 9.5.1 and 19.9.2 of the operationg system.

    Select the thrumbnail of one of the videos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option.  That should take you to the original mpeg4 file. 
    If it does then try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.

  • After a reset of settings on IPad2 it turns "on" but i only get to the logo screen with the progress bar under it. so it turns on to logo then to progress bar screen then off. and repeats over and over

    Well as I said in the "question", I did a reset of the settings on my IPad2. however when it powered back on from resetting. it lets the the logo screen with the progress bar under it. The progress bar gets about 1/4 of an inch from the left then stops. After a few mins Ipad shuts off then turns on to the logo screen, then goes to the logo/progress bar screen, does whats said above, then off. That cycle just repeats over and over. Any help with this would be appreciated.

  • I upgraded my OS from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 straight to Yosemite and now my iMac will turn on but will only go to a gray screen?

    After I installed Yosemite on my iMac, it will not restart. I goes to a gray screen and stops. The cursor moves around but the screen is blank? I went from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 straight to Yosemite, without upgrading to Maverick. Could that be the problem? And can I get it back to previous?
    Thanks, Phil.

    10.8.2 is no longer available. You can't install what you can't find.
    The download you found at Apple is an update file for 10.8 or 10.8.1 users and will not install without those versions being present.

  • I bought a used iphone5. My carrier activated my phone but will not give me the phone until we find out the password to the previous owners icloud account. Am I able to just switch to my icloud account or what would be a good solution for me?

    I bought a used iphone5, I got it activated but my carrier won't let me have the phone until I get the password from the previous owner but the passwords we were given don't work. Is there a way I could switch icloud user to my account without their password? Otherwise, can't I use the phone to atleast call and text without being signed into icloud account?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

  • When I open a link to a doc file, it opens in Microsoft Office 2010 as a .bmp file. I opened Firefox options to change what application should be used to open doc files, but it only gives me the option of the general Microsoft Office, not Microsoft Word.

    This did not happen on my laptop when I installed the Microsoft Office home & student edition, and my laptop also has Windows 7 and I use Firefox. Please help!

    Menu > File > Save As… > you get a wide choice of formats
    Are you using  Windows Word or Word for Mac?

  • HT1688 My phone is turning on but will not load past the apple screen

    help with my iphone 4 ive tried everything i know

    Reset, hold both the home and power buttons until the iPhone restarts again, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still problem, you may need to Restore the Firmware of your iPhone. If you decide to do this, try DFU Mode Restore. Steps for DFU Mode are, open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both Home and Power Buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release the Power button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds of holding Home button. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If Restoring iPhone Firmware fails, and you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

  • My iphone 4 has frozen. I can not slide to unlock nor shut the phone down. It flashes the apple logo from time to time but will not respond to the touch screen.

    My iphone 4 has frozen while I held the button down to try and access voice command. Now it will not allow me to slide and unlock. Won't respond to the shut down button on top nor any touch screen commands. The apple logo appears from time to time but mostly it shows my wallpaper and the time. Can you help me out ?

    Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
