IPad Gen 3 had classic iOS8 glitch, 24hrs later of little to no usage its Died Apple Tech said a fault code came up but wouldn't elaborate - just the up sell to either a new Air2 or a refurbished Gen 3 @ $360AUD !! Anyone else??

ipad Gen 3 dead... Apple tech says major fault.. seems  to have occurred after iOS 8 update and even though its 2 years old its been only lightly used.. Seems very sus with the new Air2 out and a perfectly good iPad just all of a sudden dead- Help !!

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • HT4623 I keep getting an error message "cannot connect to the internet."  Is this a problem with my internet provider, or has anyone else had this problem.

    I keep getting an error message "cannot connect to the internet."  Is this a problem with my internet provider, or has anyone else had this problem.

    I get that problem once in a while and I will not be able to connect to the Internet with any of the 5 or 6 (or 7 or 8 ) web browsers that I use on my iPad. The one thing that I do that has never failed to work for me is to close all apps on my iPad and reset the device. I can't guarantee that it will work for you, but this works for me every time I get the server failed to load/can't connect to the Internet message.... Or whatever the exact message is.
    If you have a ton of apps in the multitasking display, it can take a while to close them all, so you could just trey resetting the iPad first and that might be all that you need to do.
    Closing apps in iOS 7 works like this. Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    I found a post with the answer.  Basically I just logged out of the iCloud.  My concern was that I would loose my contacts.   But when i logged back in with the correct AppleID -- it was all there.

  • When I press slightly on either side of my macbook pro august 2011 trackpad or if I click the tracpad, I hear a light tick noise, sounds kinda like metal.  Anyone else have this problem? What is it?

    When I press slightly on either side of my macbook pro august 2011 trackpad or if I click the trackpad, I hear a light tick noise, sounds kinda like metal.  Anyone else have this problem? What is it?

    It's a spring-loaded grounding contact between the top case/chassis and the bottom pan of the machine. When you press, it scratches against the inside of the bottom pan and makes the sound. It's completely harmless and doesn't indicate that anything is wrong, but it can be slightly annoying. A visit to a Genius Bar may result in quieting it partially or completely.

    If you use Lion, go to Applications/ Mission Control and, if you have more Desktops, as attached, it means you have more, and you must select the one you need for a certain app. If default settings has not changed, this is Control with left / right arrow
    If in Snow Leopard and earlier, you have these settings in System Preferences only. In Lion, you also have some settings in Sys Prefs.

    This software update keeps popping up almost everyday in my iMac 27 although I keep updating. Looks like the either the update is not happening on my machine or some other problem. Anyone else know of this? Everytime I check for updates (I have the setting to manual check), an alert pops up in Apple store with the phrase "Lexmark Printer Software Update 2.11" available for download.
    Is there a way I can turn off this notification for Printer updates until it is resolved? It is pretty annoying.
    Thanks

    Not sure this will help yet, having just noticed it myself, but you can now get the Lexmark driver 3.0 for download here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1397
    I'm going to give that a try to see if I stop getting the constant reminder for 2.11.

    I have been trying to watch tutorials on how layering works. All I want to do is this: I have one image of a radio with a white background. I need to have just the radio extracted, then on a new layer (white one/blank/plain) I need to copy and paste the image of the radio two times. How can I DO THIS!?!?!?! Thanks!

    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the radio from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and the radio B on a separate layer.

  • I RECEIVED AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT I COULD NOT MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS AND I HAD TO RESTORE VIA ITUNES.  I HAVE DONE SO AND LOST LOADS OF APPS ETC (MY FAULT FOR NOTBACKING UP) BUT STILL UNABLE TO MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS.

    Phone is only a few months old and was working fine last night - it ran out of battery but on being charged up this morning it was effectively locked.  I received an error message that I could not make or receive calls and I had to restore via itunes.  I have done so and lost loads of apps etc (my fault for not backing up) but still unable to make or receive calls.  Anyone had anything similar and can advise who I should contact or what I can do.
    Thanks,

    try contacting your carrier and see whats going on.

  • Just received a replacement ipad and when I connected it to my computer I followed the prompts exactly like the apple tech said. Problem is, I get to a screen prompt that asks me to restore (which he said to click) and now my screen is frozen.

    I just received a replacement iPad and when I connected it to my computer I followed the prompts exactly like the apple tech told me too. When I got to a prompt asking if I wanted to restore the iPad he said to click on it. I did. Now my iPad screen is frozen on the iTunes connect screen and I cannot get out of it.  An iPad shows connected in my iTunes folder, but when I run a diagnostic it says no iPad is detected.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Personally, I would call Apple back.  However...
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • New Kensington Pilotboard wireless desktop - numerous issues Anyone else??

    I just got a G4 500 AGP and also picked up a new Kensington Pilot Board wireless desktop on sale at Compxxx and it has given me fits and was wondering if anyone else had similar issues??
    Here is what I have going on :
    1) Random keys not responding at all mostly towards right side of keyboard
    2) MASSIVE system slowdown which seemed to go away after going back to a generic keyboard/mouse that are wired
    3) Horrible lag when typing and I am not a fast typer by ANY standards
    I put 2 new and fresh sets of batteries in both keyboard and mouse and re-synched about 10 times and restarted several times and un-installed and re-installed software as well with same problems persisting. Is this just a junk product or did I get a lemon??

    Tim, welcome, I have the same keyboard and it work just fine. And yes, new batteries really make a huge difference. Try Repairing Permissions and see if that solves the issue. Also if the USB cable is plug into a PCI card move it to one of the computer outlets and try moving the censor to a new location.
    The tracking speed of the mouse can be adjusted but this should not effect the OS performance at all.

  • My Tungsten E2 is no longer compatible with my computer, because my new computer has Microsoft Vista (64-bit) - anyone else with the same complaint?

    I can't believe that Palm doesn't come up with a fix or patch for the Tungsten E2 to be compatible with M/S Vista (64-bit), or a new Palm Pilot that will work with Vista.  I use(d) my Palm all the time, and have found it terribly inconvenient that not I'm without the use of it, or at least the ability to back up or synchronize the Palm with my computer, in the off chance that my Palm crashed and I lost everything I have in it.  Anyone feel the same?

  • I'm trying to mirror my iPad 2 or my iPhone 4S to my Apple TV but I don't see the Airplay icon on either device.

    I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S. I bought Apple TV recently and I've gotten bored of just using it to stream Netflix. I've been trying all morning to get Airplay to work on either my iPad or my iPhone, but I don't even see the Airplay icon when I doubleclick the Home button and swipe right. For a while when I first bought my Apple TV, I was able to play movies from my MacBook to my AppleTV, but now I don't see that option on my MacBook either. What is going on?!? At this point, I'm feeling like AppleTV might have been a waste of $99 if it's so difficult to get to work properly, but there has to be something that is wrong. I haven't changed any security settings or anything recently, and all my devices are running off the same wifi network. I tried everything that Apple says to do if Airplay doesn't work, but nothing is helping.

    You have to swipe in a left to right motion. If the airplay icon isn't showing up it's likely something within your network that is blocking it. You can also try rebooting devices and router.
