Ipad2 iBooks' dictionary will speak but not define.  How to fix it?

Dictionary was working fine, but when I chose "speak" but afterwords every time i tapped on a word for the definition it only had the choice "speak" and would not define any words.  What happened and how do I fix this?
Thank you

I have the same issue, and it is very annoying. I found that, to get out of the "speak" mode, if I hit the search icon and then go back to the book, the dictionary start working again. Try it and see if it works for you as well.

  • I have a new email address and my old email keeps coming up on icloud when trying to update apps and i don't know the password or security questions for the old email. I can sign in with my apple id which is tied to another email but not itunes how to fix

    I have an apple id and it has my current email attached to it. however when i go to update apps it's asking for the password for an old email. I no longer have the old email and can't use it. when I go to icloud on my ipad it asks for the password for old email. it doesn't allow me to change the old email to current. when i go to reset it i can't remember the password or security questions for the old email so it doesn't let me go any further. How do I fix this? Do i need to call apple support?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Receiving pop ups to secure my files and when I log into any website i get directed to a site with a pop up regarding security.  I assume I have a virus and not sure how to fix it

    I am receiving pop ups to security sites to secure my files etc.  I assume I have a virus but not sure how to fix it.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • IPad will open but not display information entered on a form sent as a PDF.

    iPad will open but not display information entered on a PDF file. Same file will open and display all information on my iMac. Anyone had this problem?

    I think that you are trying to view a form fields PDF file and you cannot see the content that was filled in on those fields. Form fields will not show in the mail app or in iBooks. Download Adobe Reader for the iPad. It is free and it offers a lot of features for a free app. Save that PDF to Adobe Reader and see if the text in the fields appear.

    Could you please try this: deploy the JSF library and then deploy your application? By default, you will find "jsf-1.2.war" under YOUR_WLS_HOME/common/deployable-libraries/.
    Regarding the JSF library, please refer to http://download-llnw.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/webapp/configurejsfandjtsl.html

  • Hp Officejet Pro 8500 will print but not anything with black ink. It keeps aligning itself.

    My Hp Officejet Pro 8500 will print but not anything with black ink - i have checked the black ink cartridge and it is full. Whenever i print anything in colour (only option) the printer goes into an alignment/maintenace loop that lasts for a long time and does not fix the problem. What should I do?

    Clean your printerhesd 4-5 times until the black fully restores.  I am on my third complete cleaning and have gone from 0% black to approx. 60-70%.  So, it works just takes time.

  • My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

    My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
    It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
    The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
    How do I fix this?

    Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

  • Hp photosmart c4480 using with mac OS X 10.9.4 will scan but not save or send

    hp photosmart c4480 using with mac OS X 10.9.4 will scan but not save or send.  says: could not be written to  check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read only. 

    Hello @JoScan , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing scan issues.  I would like to help.
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
    I would also suggest running your Apple updates:  OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    After the updates, I would recommend readding the OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • OS X 10.4.11 will send but not receive faxes on Power Mac G4 MDD

    OS X 10.4.11 will send but not receive faxes on my Power Mac G4 MDD. Perhaps I should remove the relevant .plist preference file(s). But which one(s) is it /are they? Or is there something else I should do?

    Thank you for your reply, BDAqua. I have set the fax feature to answer after 3 rings, but the phone rings only once when someone is trying to send a fax. The phone icon in the menu bar changes to "ringing ..." but nothing more happens. The phone line on which I receive faxes is dedicated to that use. I phoned in to its number earlier today from another phone. I heard it ring once and then it went to the busy signal. I then disconnected the fax phone line from its wall jack, connected a phone to the jack, and phoned in to it. The phone now rang and rang as it should. So this confirms the assumption that the fault is in the computer, presumably in the Print & Fax software. I should also mention that I don't find com.apple.print.FaxPrefs.plist in /Library/Preferences.

    whats going on?
    John

    Success. I discovered the issue that was preventing QTSS start up.
    The IP Bind tab listed a set of new Class C IP addresses that ARIN forced us to move to last year and which had been properly configured into our network and I had checked the matching address shared in our new web server config.
    However /library/quicktimestreaming/config/streamingserver.xml had not exterminated the obsolete address and I pico'ed in the Terminal to replace these lines
    <LIST-PREF NAME="bindipaddr" >
    <VALUE>old ip</VALUE>
    <VALUE>new ip</VALUE>
    </LIST-PREF>
    with this line, which will now overide whatever's poking in the old ip, probably one of those pesky permanently-burned Net Info DB's that can't be purged despite the reality that servers sometimes need wholesale refreshes to be re-networked:
    <PREF NAME="bindipaddr" >new ip</PREF>

  • Iphoto will launch but not respond

    I just bought my macbook and upgraded it to Lion a few weeks ago, but I'm not quite sure which version of iphoto I have or how to find that out. I was taking screenshots of a website yesterday and opening them with iphoto in order to edit them. A few photos in, however, iphoto stopped fully opening. Everytime I launch it I have to force quit it, because as soon as it launches the little pinwheel comes up and I can't do anything. I'm not sure how to fix this problem. It's not dire that I import the photos to edit them. I just want access to my library back!
    Thanks in advance.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • My o2 email will receive, but not send on my ipad

    My o2 email will receive, but not send. I've got other email accounts on the ipad &amp; they all work OK. The o2 mail account used to work properly, but I needed to remove the account &amp; since I've put it back on, it won't work on my ipad. Works ok on android mobile phone. I've checked the settings &amp; spoken to o2, but they couldn't solve! It may be since I've joined the cloud? Any advice, gratefully received. Thanks.

    Recheck the settings once again.  There is something wrong.  And it seems to happen to O2 people with some regularity.    Google o2 mail settings and you will get a page with the details.  Pay close attention to the port setting, you may need to change it on the pad, and that may be the problem.
