  • 'Attach photo' to emails and messages has stopped working. Help?

    'Attach photo' to emails and messages has stopped working.
    The function is grayed out. Help?
    — Relatively new iPhone 6+ with latest system ...
    If on a mac, I'd be running a disk utility or looking to overwrite an app, or re-install the system.
    Although over 25 years on Macs, this is my first iPhone... and I'm missing a few (probably) subtle things to do to resurrect this function.
    Help?
    Thanks

    Hi CartoonBob,
    If you are having issues with being unable to attach a photo from Mail on your iPhone, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • My apple TV has stopped working completely.  Just a flashing Amber light

    My Apple TV has stopped working.  When it is turned on I just get a flashing amber light and it does not turn blue as normal.  It doesn't connect wirelessly to my Mac and it doesn't connect to the TV.  I do not get the setup menu and it is totally unresponsive to the remote control.  I have tried connecting it directly to my Mac but this also does nothing.  I am at a loss as to what to do next.  I have a lot of films and music stored on it and I am worried that I have lost it all.  I am not sure which generation it is, but it is the silver one, model number A1218.  Can anyone help?

    Unfortunately, it sounds as though your Apple TV 1 has failed. Unlike the later Apple TVs, you cannot connect it to iTunes to restore it.

  • Transferring CS4 from an old Mac to a new one, I get a notice saying "licensing for this product has stopped working" Error 150:30. Don't know what to do? Thanks.

    I'm trying to migrate my CS4 from my old Mac to my new one. When trying to open photoshop, i get a message saying "Licensing for this product has stopped working." And "Error: 150:30" I don't know what to do from here. Can someone help me? Thanks.

    "Migrating" and/or "transferring" an application is not just asking for trouble but demanding it!
    Always install an Adobe application from scratch, from the original media: CD or download.

  • TS2551 My computer keeps telling me that "ApplePhotoSream.exe has stopped working".... Does anyone know what may be causing this, or how to fix it????

    When I click on the iCloud icon on my computer systems tray, it brings up my active selections, but then shows the following message: "ApplePhotoStream.exe has stopped working"..... Then, it shuts down the program and says I will be notified of possible solutions to the problem. It has done this for several weeks, and I have not received notification as to what's going on.
    Is anyone else having/had this problem, and what is the solution to fix it????
    This is keeping my photos from being streamed to my other iOS devices, that I have synced.

    What OS are you using?

  • Itunes has stopped working error I have uninstalled and reinstalled now what

    Itunes has stopped working error.  I have unistalled and reinstalled and this is the first error ever with my ipod/itunes.  How can I fix it?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • My speaker has stopped working and it appears this is happening everywhere, what is Apple doing about this?

    I have an iPhone5. The speaker has stopped working. I have reset my settings, rebooted several times. I am running 6.1.2.
    The support center told me to jailbreak my phone and delete com.apple.iapd.plist. The internet has a deamon that they are saying to delete.
    There are thousands of complaints all over the place.
    APPLE -- WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT THIS? CAN YOU PLEASE LET US KNOW WHERE YOU STAND ON THIS HARDWARE/SOFTWARE ISSUE!!!
    Tomorrow, I am going to an apple store to replace my phone (I hope). I use my phone for business and cannot rely on Vibrate to know my phone is ringing.
    Does anyone know what is really going on? It is ridiculous that there are videos telling people to put Q-tips into the phone. If this is what we are resorting to then the iPhone makers should be embarrassed.
    I hope this post does not get blocked. I would really like to know what Apple plans to do about this or if anyone really knows how to fix this OTHER THAN replacing the phone.
    Thanks for listening!

    I find that difficult to believe... so difficult I would even say you're full of manure.

    No, there really are not.  Stop exaggerating.

    STOP SHOUTING!  We are users like yourself.  If you want to know what Apple is doing, contact them and ask them.

    That sounds like a much better idea than going to some supposed "service center" that suggests voiding the warranty on the device.
    Just out of curiousity, what have YOU done to try and resolve the issue?  Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Have you tried any of these steps?

  • TS3274 My apps sound has stopped working.  Music and Internet sound is fine but all games have no sound

    My sound has stopped working only on games
    Works fine for Internet and music
    How do I fix this?

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • TS5185 Messages on my MB Pro has stopped working completely

    I'm unable to send or recieve messages on my MB Pro
    It stopped working around mid December.

    Hi,
    It would be useful to know what you have tried.
    Start with the Apple Icon menu top left and About this Mac.
    Does this show the Serial Number ?
    In System Preferences > Date and Time does it show the Automatic server in use ?
    Have you set it to the Correct Time Zone ?
    In  Finder window use the GO Menu whilst holding down th ALT key.
    Select the Library that Appears.
    Navigate to Preferences.
    Find the com.apple.iChat.plist and Drag it to the Trash.
    Does the App start now ?
    In the Font Book scroll to the bottom of the List and check the AppleGothic Font.
    It should not  be disabled. It should validate (File Menu) and not be duplicated.
    Also check the Helvetica Neue and Lucida Grande whilst you are there.
    IF the app will open check the Details Button in Messages > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages account
    This should list you Location (county or Region for telephone International codes).

    I mean, literally it's stopped working.
    Last night, it was fine. This morning, my message history is gone, I can't click on anything, and I can't type if I manage to get a new message window.
    Has this happened to anyone else?
    Any suggestions for a fix?

  • My volume has stopped working completely after the iOS 8 update

    My sound has completely stopped working after the ios 8 update yesterday.please help

    I just now spoke with Apple support as I had a similar issue, where the volume on some apps and games did not work, and what I was told helped me out greatly.
    what I was told to do is hold down the power and the home screen button at the same time for about three or four seconds until the device shuts down and you should see it restarting. If the device does not restart on its own hit the power button and it should restart and then you should have no problem at all everything should be as it should be.
    I hope this helps you or someone else in a similar situation as it is helped me and hope this makes your day better. 
    My device is iPad air Retina.
