Magic mouse constantly disconnects and can't get it to connect without rebooting the computer. Anyone else have this issue

How do you solve the problem of the magic mouse constantly disconnecting? I have changed the batteries and turn it on and off, but the only way to get it to reconnect seems to be re-starting the computer. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Greetings Beth,
Wireless devices are susceptible to interference. Review this article for common sources: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3048#5
They are also very sensitive to low power. Make sure you are using VERY fresh batteries. If they have been sitting on a shelf for months they don't count as fresh IMO.
Troubleshooting steps to try after you read that article at the top:
Remove the following to the trash: Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences > com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
Restart the computer and re-pair the mouse and keyboard
If issue persists reset the SMC:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If the issue persists reset the PRAM:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Hope that helps!

I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

Madmonkey,
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Gaylefromnewhope,
Seems like you tried this all ready and it didn't help.
Next might be to reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
Note that when you do this you will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
If that doesn't help you might tries a restore of your iPad using iTunes on the computer you normall sync with. Do a backup and save all data first. Or
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

After updating to IOS 8, my cellular enabled iPad will show "no service" unless turned off and completely rebooted. Does anyone else have this issue?

After updating to IOS8, my iPad 2, which has both AT&T cellular and wifi, needs to be completely turned off and rebooted to get cellular service. Does anyone else have this issue ?

Hi Hi Steve Giusto,
If you are having issues with Xxx_state issue here_xxX, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close

Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -

If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Ever since I upgraded my iPhone to ios7 I can not get my iTunes app to open. Has anyone else had this issue or know how to fix?

Every time I touch my iTunes app it opens for about 1-2 seconds and then immediately shuts back down. Has anyone else experienced this or have suggestions on how to fix this?

Do you mean you updated to iTunes 11.1?
Did you restart your computer?

I can't login to Facebook from the app or on Safari. Is anyone else have this issue? I deleted FB from my iPhone 4 and reinstalled it. Still didn't work.

Make sure you have checked off iCloud contacts in your Contacts app under Groups in upper left corner.

The verification lists my card data and address etc. correctly but I need to keep entering the card security number. Support keep telling me to delete and re-enter my car info which does not help. Anyone else seen this issue? Seems to be something to do

Seems to be something to do with a new security check they have put in the system that does not work correctly and support is totally incapable of helping me out.
wth am i gonna do im feed up and on top i have no one to help me been calling itunes for days now im ****** off to the maxxx

I've been jumping through the hoops with Apple Support on this issue....first time I called they said I should try updating from IOS 4.0 to 4.1....tried that and the issue still persisted...then I called back to update the ticket and get the next steps...they said that the Bank is rejecting the request for verification and that is why it keeps prompting (which doesn't make sense since the confirmation seems to go through successfully). The rep also contacted the iTunes dept and had them run the verify manually and said the bank rejected it. The next hoop they want me to jump through is calling the bank to verify that the account is in good standing and inquire about the rejected requests. I'm fairly certain the bank account is in good standing....will verify of course....but I find it hard to believe that all the people who have posted here, plus countless others that are experiencing the same issue but haven't, are ALL having banking issues in the last 24hrs...I'm more convinced there is a disconnect on the back end between iTunes and Financial institutions...
I'm not sure I buy in to everything I was told...he also told me he has had several calls on this issue and they were all told to check with their banks. He could not verify that any of his past calls were resolved. Needless to say I'm not 100% believing everything he told me....weak response from Apple support on this issue so far.

Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

Glen_2015,
Let's make sure we find the root cause here! When did this start happening? Is there any physical or water damage to the device? Does the iPhone overheat during other activities? Please share some details.

IPhone 6 clicking noise coming from home button and also a little loose..anyone else have this issue or suggestions on how to handle it? Any and all suggestions are appreciated

It seems as if when I push my home button there is a loud click or a clicking noise that shouldn't be there. If I push the home button in certain areas or kind of on the side it's not so bad. Also it seems as if the button is kind of loose or wiggles a little bit and can also feel the little silver ring and seems as if it's either not on properly or the home button is sunken in pretty good. I was at the Apple Store and checked out some display models and didn't notice it on those and they all felt solid. Has anyone else had this issue or experienced this? Any and all suggestions will help greatly...I just want to know if it's normal or how I should go about taking care of it...thanks!

ok...the doctor is in!....well, yes I agree with other posts concerning "clicky" crunchy touch id/home buttons...ah... we do swaps, cleanings, alcohol wipes....NO NO NO! yes dirt can and will trap inside the extreme minor spaces around the home button and the screen cutout..yes twirling a q-tip round the button only stuffs grime deeper in, but can clean the edge...in this case, that crunch you hear (new out-of-box), its a very popular notice that most do hear a crunchy glass-like snapping sound...being that the touch id does have a sensor ring on the outer side, the actual noise your hearing is ........wait for it......MISS-ALLIGNMENT!!!! yes... pop that sucker open, remove bracket....what do you see??. touch id pressed thru and adheared around the ends of the button...and also most cases, not perfectly aligned..that noise is the actual ring brushing against the screen hole cutout causing metal and glass to bind against eachother... re-seating the button will correct the issue..being that theyre so close together, the slightest miss-alignment can cause that annoying crunchy click sound. find a swap that doesn't...ok that one works but now the silent switch is loose!!!!! ive seen it all

I cannot get my ringer to work on my phone, anyone else having this issue?

The day I received my phone it would randomly vibrate and then the ringer would turn back on. Now I cannot get my phone to do anything but vibrate and the ringer will not work at all. However; when I go into my settings on the phone my ringer is one and turned all the way up. Has anyone else had this issue with their phone?

Try a reset ( Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until Apple logo appears). Worked on my phone for other sounds like text and mail being extremely low. Might work for you and is quick and easy and you wont loose any of your data. Good luck!

My daughter bought an 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. We are using the charger from an ipod touch and it won't charge. Someone posted online that not all chargers will work on the classic. Anyone else have this issue and any suggestions?

My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch. It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic. Anyone else have this same issue? Any solutions?

The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay. The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs). My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work. So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch. We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger.
One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic. So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal. Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord. Or that I need to purchase an applie charger. We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work.
My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
Any other advice is greatly appreciated.

I'm using imessage and do not want to use sms in some cases. I have the settings turned off so its not supposed to use SMS but it still does anyway. Does anyone else have this issue?

Recently upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 5. I have a problem with imessage and sms. I have some contacts that I don't want to send sms to ever. So I set the "Send As SMS = off" thinking it would not ever send sms(unless I set it to). However, in the middle of imessage conversation with almost a full 3G signal it just sent as SMS. Then back to imessage. Totaly ignored the do no send sms setting.Has anyone else seen this issue? I wish the they would seperate these two apps so they could never cross up. Some people only have data and others have both.

Newest Macbook pro blacks out when the battery is near full and plugged in. Anyone else have this issue?

So for about 3 weeks, I have been forcing my macbook to close because whenever I wake it from sleeping to use it, I try to put in my password but it blacks out. I finally figured out that this only happens when its plugged in and near full battery life. Does anyone else have an issue similar to this?
