Mac air is not charging, cord is fine
My Mac Air is not charging, the cord/connector is fine, all other devices plugged are working. I tried plugging directly on the wall too. This happened once in the past, then worked again. I thought my Mac Air had a problem, took it to the Apple Store but my cord worked there and so did theirs. This is so annoying! Does anyone have new suggestions? I read the posts relating this same problem, is Apple coming up with anything to solve this?

I am part of a family sharing setup. Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases? If so, how do I set this up?
Yes. Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance. Here is how it works:
Family purchases and payments
After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card. -
i have tried this 6+ times to "How to share music between different accounts on a single computer" on my wifes mac and can not get it to work!! On my PC no problem but on the MAC it will not work, follow the instructions to the T but no go????
It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.

IPod with dock connector is not getting charged with car charger and iTrip
My iPod from 2003 with dock connector is not getting charged in my car by using the griffin iTrip with USB car charger. iTrip works, but not the charger. Maybe there´s not enough power output from the car charger? Only 5.0V with 400mA are coming out. iPod needs more? 12V with 1.0A?
Does somebody have information about that problem for me?Has Apple dropped support for older model iPods?
Nope. Support is still there, even back to the original 1G iPod with the wheel that actually turns. I have a 3G iPod, and it syncs just fine. There have not been any software updates for years, but the old software still works fine with the latest iTunes.
You have to use FireWire, which you seem to be doing.
Try putting it into Disk Mode first, then connect it.

Does the iPod currently play music as it should?
Do you have another docking cable (FireWire) that you can try? FireWire connectors often get worn and they no longer work, although the power connection can continue to work.
Did you try the other FireWire port in the iMac? -
Please, the battery of my mac air does not last more than two hours, it's been over 30 days I sent for technical assistance and nothing! I am very disappointed with the mac air, I had a very different expectation of apples products!!!
Maybe the problem is not your MB Air......
Try these:
Make sure bluetooth is turned off if you're not using it.
Set your screen brightness to 4 bars.
See what's loading in your login items. Delete the ones you don't need.
Open Activity Monitor - under All Processes see what's using most of your CPU's resources.
Highlight the ones with the highest %CPU and hit quit process.
Remember that when Apple says that your battery should last 7 hours, they tested it just browsing the web and not have anything open in the background and screen is set at 50% brightness. -

My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi. It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection. One question is how to delete some of the networks that I don't use. Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
Thanks.Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
It shouldn't but sometimes deleting the list of networks actually does solve the problem you are describing. Have you turned WiFi off and then back on on the computer? -

Iphone 5 factory unlocked mobile not getting charged
Hello Apple Support,
I bought a factory unlocked mobile when I was in US in March'2015, after coming to India I was using it with a GSM sim I got here and it was working fine for a week.For the last 2 days the phone is not getting charged. I thought it might be a issue with the Lightning USB charging cable and checked with a new Lightning to USB cable but the wasn't getting charged. So I took it to the apple service center here in India,Bangalore. The apple service person checked the mobile, did some battery/hardware reset and checked again with a charging cable but the issue was still there. He also said in the apple website the mobile's IMEI shows as locked. I explained to him I bought it as factory unlocked and I was using it with a GSM sim as well but he told me that is what the apple website showed and it cannot be service in India rather I should take to US for servicing.
Can you(Apple support) please help me out with a solution for my problem ?
My apple iphone 5 IMEI number is : ************
Thanks !
<Personal Information Edited by Host>This is not Apple Support
This is a User to User Technical Support Community .Apple neither read nor respond here
You purchased an iPhone in the US .The iPhone warranty is not International and you can only receive Service and Support for an iPhone in The Country of Sale ,in your case the USA
You can either take it to an Apple Store in the US or send it to a friend or relative to take into Apple
Apple neither accept mail in of a product from cross border nor do they ship cross border
and the only source of iPhones that are not locked to a carrier are the Apple Retail Stores in the US -
Ipad not getting charged while connected to the laptop
ipad not getting charged while connected to the laptop.
It's no different from the iPad 1 in that regard. When connected to a computer via USB it should charge when sleeping only. Hit the sleep button and leave it for a while to see if that works. It's much slower charging that way than using the actual charger.
Not all USB's are powered, or powered enough, so what the previous poster said could also be the case. -
I have a US txt only plan. What setting should I have my iPhone 5 on so I do not get charged cellular or data or roaming charges?
The main ones are:
Settings > General > Cellular > Data Roaming (should be "Off")
Settings > General > Cellular > Cellular Data (sounds like you want this "Off") -
Got an ipad mini 1 month ago.
1. It does not have a preloaded calculator.
2. It does not detect WiFi signals all the time.
3. The most recent problem: it is not getting charged. Tried charging it through the comp, power socket. Not a problem with the lightning cable as it is charging other phones. Kindly assist.Some things to try first:
1. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

If problems persist, take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.
