IPad 1 and Amazon Kindle App worked, but not after reset
The Amazon Kindle App worked on my iPad 1 until I did a reset to give the iPad to a friend after buying the iPad Air. The Kindle App had been working with the current version of the OS. Now when my friend tries to install the Kindle App, it indicates that the current Kindle App doesn't work with the current OS and says that it is downloading an earlier version. Then it blows up and doesn't download. Interesting that the Amazon Shopping App does the same thing.
In talking with Amazon customer support, they indicate that the problem is with Apple. They sent a long email indicating how it should work. Sadly it doesn't. The older version should be installed.
When a problem exists between Amazon and Apple where does one go? Pointing fingers at the other seems to be the answer.
All I know is that the Kindle App was working on the 3 year old iPad before I did a reset and now I can't download it. The App Store needs to be fixed or the Kindle App needs to be fixed. Help please.
One would presume that, if what you were told was true, Amazon has reported this problem to Apple and that Apple is working on a correction.
Perhaps this wil be corrected soon.

I will try to start firefox and then it stops working. It will work for about 2 seconds and then it goes to a blank screen. The screen is transparent and i can see my desk top threw firefox. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it and firefox still will not work on my computer. I have run scans on my computer as well to see if it was a virus that was preventing it from running. If anyone could help me I would be very greatful.
hello see-saw-sally, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/940393#answer-377118 from another user] we found out that this might be related to malware active on your pc. please close all firefox windows and try [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|running firefox in safemode]] (by pressing the shift key while you're starting it). in firefox safemode go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove the entry named "Codec v1.0" or any other addons that look suspicious & you have not installed intentionally. afterwards see if you can run firefox normally again...
please also do an in-depth scan of your system with the security software already in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & keep firefox and your plugins up-to-date in order to stay safe on the web.

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 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.

Hello Besibert
This is a hardware issue.
To resolve this issue you need to try some unorthodox methods to get some results. Try to insert the headset back into the port and "wiggle" it while pulling it out and then inserting it back in. Try this a couple of times and see if this helps.
The reason for this is because there's a "lever" or spring mechanism that got stuck. No hard reset or soft reset will fix this (I speak from experience). -
when i try and answer the phone, i cant hear anything through the phone. the speaker phone and blue tooth work fine.
Help has arrived, julie_s! I apologize for the delay as I understand how time sensitive this situation is! If you still need assistance with activating the device I have started following you so please follow back and send a Direct Message to review account details.

PDF working, but not after download from site
Hello,
I have created a .pdf file using PDFlite from a Word document. The conversion works and I can open it without any problems. I upload the .pdf to my website to make it available for download by users, but when I download the file from the website and attempt to open it the reader tells me that there is a problem. The file is damaged or the file type is not supported - the generic error message.
I uploaded the file to my website using Dreamweaver at first and then did it using FTP in binary mode and ASCII modes but none of them have allowed me to download a working copy. Can you please help?
Thanks,
RobHi Pat,
Good question, I'm not sure how I would find that out?
Perhaps this is the problem. I have a page where I link to a php page like this:
<a href="report.php">Click here to download it automatically.</a>
And the report.php page contains this code:
<?php
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename=report.pdf');
header('Content-type: pdf');
readfile('report.pdf');
?>
Perhaps I should do it differently? Or use another way? I did it this way because I wanted the download to start automatically. -
No images or form elements are displaying in Firefox, used to work but not after an update
Virtually no images are displaying in Firefox, mainly background images - but on every website. Also, form elements are often not visible. Didn't happen before; new Vaio laptop running windows 7 - it can't all be bad coding. Yes, load images automatically is checked etc.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Is there anyway to open a mobi format book on ipad without installing the kindle app but any other app
Have you tried GoodReader? It claims to handle very large file sizes and it's very good for annotations. It's my PDF reader of choice on the iPad
From the GoodReader manual:
File types to view in GoodReader
There are two types of viewing engines - the ones that we've written ourselves, and the built-in device's standard viewing engine. Our own engines provide great flexibility and many additional features not found in the built-in engine (for example, opening very large files). The built-in engine is very powerful and knows many file formats, but has many limitations and no additional features.
Files of very big size (our own viewing engine):
very large PDF files (including password-protected). File size is not the limit. Revolutionary PDF Reflow (Extract Pure Text) mode. See Viewing PDF Files for details.
very large TXT files. See Viewing TXT Files for details.
high-resolution pictures and other graphic files (including slideshow viewing mode). See Viewing Pictures for details.
And as a free bonus - files of normal size (iOS standard viewing engine):
all file formats supported by Safari engine: Microsoft Office files - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML files and Safariwebarchives
iWork'08/09 files - Pages, Numbers, Keynote (files must be saved with Include Preview option)
.ai files saved with PDF Compatible option
audio files (natively supported by iOS)
video files (natively supported by iOS) -

The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
in the line up of thumbnails.
Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
Please let us know if that worked for you.
Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home Button to view your recently-used apps.
Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the icon.
