Ipad and Iphone show offline on find my phone, but they are both on, what am I doing wrong
My iphone was lost and im trying to locate it using find my phone however it says all devices are offline!
I have my Ipad thats connected to the same apple id and the find my phone is enabled and im currently connected to my home wifi as well as hotspot, but, it says offline!
What am I missing, please help me fix this so I can attempt to find my phone!
Thank you
If the location of the device is unknown, then it will show up as offline. It's quite possible that your router has not been properly registered by your provider to show its location. Also your device has be be turned on and connected to wifi.
As for iphones, they shouldn't have this router problem, since they are also connected to cell towers.
Did you ever test all your devices before, at home, to see if they could be located. If they were found, then my hypothesis in the first paragraph is probably not correct. You might test your ipad at another location, like a mall to see if you can find it using the Find My iPhone app.

I have turned my keychain 'on' on both my i phone 5 and my ipad. the instructions online say I should just follow the on screen instructions to set this up, but there are none. What I am doing wrong?
Apps downloaded on one should also appear on the other as long as the app in question runs on both iPads and iPhones.

Can I put the 2Gb RAM (X2) from my MacBook Pro into my MacBook? The intel is different (2Ghz not 2.3) and the speed is 2000 not 1333. But they are both DDR3.
I have just upgraded the Pro to 16Gb and the MacBook is SO slow. Just wondering if I could use the old RAM.Full specification of MB5.1 RAM;
204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM, non-ECC (non parity), unbuffered.
MBP8.1, 8.2 or 8.3;
204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM, non-ECC (non parity), unbuffered.
PC3 is the same as DDR3. the number is peak transfer rate (approximated).
Further reading suggests your swap may work, but it's not guaranteed. If you get 3 beeps on start up (or the sleep light flashing in bursts of 3), first check it's correctly seated, but be prepared to swap them back.
If you encounter any instability or kernel panics, change them back. -

Hi, just bought my daughter an Iphone 4s and I can't get it to let her on youtube, Facebook etc., keeps saying no internet connection. My husband and I have 3G smartphones and we can get on them on ours, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Also, my other daughter has the same phone and has no trouble getting on these sites either. Any information to help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
Well, did you activate this new phone?

I want to Facetime my Ipad from my Iphone but they are both set up with the same Apple id. Do I need to create a new id for one of them in order to facetime with the other?
You should be able to call the iPad using your Apple ID from the iPhone. When calling from iPad use the iPhone's phone number to initiate the call.

I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?
An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad? -
Hi all, Since I updated to Mavericks I am having trouble with Safari showing all the buttons/clickable options, but they are gray and will not work. Specifically, the Trash Can/Delete and the "Move to" folder button simply do not work. Any ideas?

Hello savtaneg
Start with the article below to sync your calendars with your iPhone. Try turning off iCloud calendars and then turning them back on.

I have a Macbook Pro, 10.8.2 and can not get it to mirror websites on my Apple TV. What am i doing wrong?
Is your MacBook Pro early 2011 or newer. If not that is whay you cannot mirror and a third party app called airparrot would help.

what cables are best when connecting apple tv, my HD tv has 2 HDMI slots but they are both in use, one for Sky and one for cinema. There are no hdmi slots spare on the cinema either ...
Mine has four Seriously shauntana the splitter is easy, a simple click to changre feed and eventually you will damage the HDMI port or cable by taking it in and out. True you can only use one feed at a time nut you can only use one port on the telly at one time too. I used it on my old one port telly for PS3 and Sky and it worked a treat.
Enjoy

I am trying to sync some new purchases on to my i phone but they are coming up as restricted in downloads and are unplayable can anyone help?
Overdrive media are not iTunes purchases so they do not transfer with:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
Overdive media are copy protected so you can only read them via Overdrive. I do not understand what you mean by free books and are now paid. Overdrive are typically books for a public library.
You can try looking on your iPod via a third-party program like PhoneView, Touch copy or the free program iFunBox -
