Internet recovery fails every time
I tried to reinstall mountain lion on my recently purchased MacBook Air 2013 model, I erased the SSD to install the OS onto and when the computer was rebooted it went into Internet recovery which downloads just to above half way but then fails with this error: http://i.imgur.com/QvLUjZB.jpg
Is there anything I can do? I don't want to of broken my MacBook so soon and I don't live even close to an apple store for them to take a look and it being my first and only mac, I'm not too mac savvy.
I have a PC too which can be used to create a bootable USB or something of the like if possible.
You may need to buy 2 things, an ethernet adaptor for the Air and a cable, the other choice is where you are now.
But wait till it fails or finishes, it may take longer than you expect.

I am getting error (-1) while updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1. The phone has gone into a recovery mode. Restore fails every time at "restoring the firmware" stage. Striped bar remains for a long time, then shows "error (-1)" and the restore fails. I have been doing it for last 12 hours. Help!
Thanks for your reply Michalo. I am in India and here Apple care does not work on Sundays. I have been without my phone for the entire day. Perhaps tomorrow will bring some respite. There is not solution to "error (-1)" on any forum it seems. I found one forum which suggested use of Tiny Umbrella. Any idea about that?

I am trying to convert a Microsoft Publisher Document to PDF but it fails every time although the reason is not clear. Anyone else had problems like this and how do I solve it? Thanks. Ray
Hi raythree,
I'm sorry that your PDF conversion is working. Can you please tell me if you're getting a specific error message? Knowing that can help pinpoint the cause of the conversion failure. However, here are a couple of things that you could try:
Clear your browser cache (steps to do this vary by browser).
If you're using a work computer, check with your IT team to confirm if you have firewall/proxy settings that restrict the ability to upload files to the Internet.
Try another web browser. A list of supported browsers for accessing the ExportPDF service is available here: http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/.
Also, note that there is a 100MB file size limit, so if your publisher file is larger than that, it won't upload to ExportPDF.
I hope this helps. But let us know if you need further assistance.
Best,

Updating Adobe Community Help files fails every time after starting
Hello,
I e.g. go to «Support Center for Photoshop» from the menu within the app. Adobe Community Help starts up and tells me theres new content, do I want to download that. It seems to start the dl just fine, then reports an error «16882» (if I'm remembering it right).
Why? We have very fast very broadband internet connection and I use a 2011 27" iMac with max Gig RAM installed.
Any hints there would be appreciated.
Thanks!Thanks, Mister Kapoor,
that solved my problem!
All the best to you, sincerely,
Olaf Mueller

Seems Adobe Air or Cummunity help has gone cprrupt. Lets follow the below suggestions:
Step 1: Uninstall adobe air from Utilities and re-install the latest adobe AIR from "http://get.adobe.com/air/otherversions/"
Step 2: Follow "http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/842/cpsid_84215.html" and re-install the Community Help Air application.
Step 3: Restart the machine and launch adobe Community Help and try to install all the updates and check if it works fine.
Hope that Helps!.

Iv downloaded the 0845 wizard from the App Store. Registered my details and it has been working. But for some reason it won't let me log in and keep saying failed every time I try to use it. Iv deleted and re-downloaded the app and it still says the same?
I would say to start by looking on their web site... unfortunately, that appears to be dead.
Based on the horrible ratings on the App Store (1 star for the current version), I'm not surprised it doesn't work well. -
I reset my iPhone 5s yesterday because my fingerprint bottom is not working. It says that failed every time I was trying to put my print... Now that I reset my phone the fingerprint pass code do not appear in the setting.
Hi Emilemny,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The TouchID settings will not be available until you create a passcode, see the article linked below for more information.
iPhone 5s: Using Touch ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883
You can set up Touch ID in iOS Setup Assistant or by tapping Settings > Touch ID & Passcode. To set up Touch ID, you must first set a passcode. Touch ID is designed to minimize the input of your passcode, but you need a passcode for additional security validation, such as enrolling new fingerprints.

Import from iphoto fails every time.
Import from iphoto fails every time.
It should not be a serious flaw, since this something that you only do ONCE. You don't want to use both organizer and iphoto. You'll have two sets of photos with no knowledge of each other. Import from iphoto is not meant to be a regular use item, only for the one time after you've decided organizer is what you prefer. It's fine to make a small test catalog while you decide whether iphoto or organizer suits you better, but to keep on using both is going to make you crazy in short order.

My installation of Adobe Acrobat Professional 11 UE MAC ESSC fails every time I try it. I don't know how to contact Adobe to get help. I am running Mac 10.8.5. Galen Strawson
I don't have this machine but here are a few things you could look at; that is if you haven't already.
Things you could try:
Changing up the Bios Settings.
if it came with win 8. it is probably runs a uefi firmware. These often have a bios backwards compatibility mode. You could try checking those options and turn off secure boot and turn on the bios backwards compatibility mode and see if win 10 will install.
if it came with win 7, it may have a bios with those features not turned on; if that's the case try turning them on.
Note: you may lose/gain security features or boot speed by disabling or changing some of these features. But it may tell you if a uefi firmware or bios settings incompatibility that could be causing your installation issue. You could also try a different
HDD.
Also you didn't mention whether you were trying to install from a usb stick or if you burned the iso to a DVD. If you are trying from a USB and have a DVD drive. Try burning as a DVD. I had dell lattitude that would never install from my usb; it would start
installing but then it would stall, but from a dvd in the dvd drive it installed alright... kind of weird (I was installing win 7 not 10, so not sure whether it would make a difference on win 10.)
Win 10 may also run but the install is borking on your machine... this is unconventional and surely not recommended, but you could put that laptop hard drive in another machine and run the install. Then on the last reboot swap the hard drive back into your
laptop and see if it boots up.
This may allow you to try running the os and see how it works on that laptop, if that's your goal. -
I have been trying to update my cc info but for some reason it has kept saying the cc info did not match with the bank info so the transaction failed every time I made an attempt to download something even it was free. However, I saw my cc online got charged $1.00 everything I was trying to update my cc info ...why?
Im wondering why my post hasn't been answered yet. I did file a report with the BBB and I had a rude representative from Verizon call me named Steve. He said I can file all of the reports I want and I will just keep getting calls from him. I can understand why my phone couldn't be replaced because of the small crack. I guess I have to eat that one (but it sucks because the lollipop update is what caused the problems) but what about all of the data overage I had to pay for for trying to fix this phone because of a lollipop update. I dont think it is fair to have to pay that as well. In addition, because I have an east coast phone number but live on the west coast, I cannot have tech support after 8pm. Verizon has cut this off. Im very dissatisfied and I have been a customer of Verizon for 13 years. Im hoping for a response this time.

IPhone 5 iOS 7.1.4 Call failed every time when the other person hung up before me
iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.4 says Call failed every time when the other person hung up before me,
Is there anything I can do to about that please?Hey there Yonidawit,
It sounds like you are are getting a message saying that the call failed, when the person you are talking to hangs up. I have a few things to recommend here. First close all the open apps:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test it out again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If that does not resolve it, try resetting your network settings:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

my software update fails every time I attempt to update. I have restarted the device, selected software update but when it get to the end of "preparing software update", it fails and says the update was not successful. any ideas?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
