Mode reset failure on AIR-AP1220B

In trying to reset a serie of 10 AP's for re-use I have the problem that "mode button reset" does not work, in other words it does not clear any passwords.
This makes logging either over console or IP gui impossible.
Is there any known way to resolve this problem ?

Well, it is the procedure so not sure how you can do otherwise ...

Did you try that method on another model of AP just to make sure you were doing it right ?
Normally if you hold the MODE button and then put the power and keep the mode button pressed for some more you will see on the console "Mode button held for x seconds".
Do you see this kind of output ?

Unable to enter Recovery Mode for my iPad Air

Unable to enter Recovery Mode for my iPad Air
While updating my iPad Air to iOS 7.0.6, it went into an endless loop of cycling between the white Apple screen and the whirling dashes. I can't even reliably shut it down. It seems a prime candidate for recovery mode, but unfortunately I can't get it there. When I try to enter recovery mode by attaching to iTunes then pressing the home key and then reattaching theUSB cable when attached to iTunes, I just go back into the same endless loop Apple screen / whirling dashes cycle.
Right now I'm just waiting for it to power off by letting the battery run down, to see if that jumpstart brings it back up into a different state.
Anything else I can try? Or is my next stop the Genius Bar?
Thank you,
Matt

The timing on this has to be...just...right to enter DFU mode. If that won't work, plug the iPad Air into your computer and set the iPad into recovery mode, like so:
1) Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
2) Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
3) Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
4) When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.

How do I download a Minecraft mod on my macbook air?

How do I download a Minecraft mod onto my Macbook Air?

You would be best asking this question on a minecraft community(such as planetminecraft.com, and there are plenty of videos for that, but the main thing is getting to the library directory. to do this, click finder, then on the top of the screen you will find GO. Click on GO and hold down "option". When you do that, "library" will pop up, so click on that. then once you are in library, go to application support ----> minecraft -------> bin ------> then you will find your minecraft.jar. click on it once and hit enter, so you can rename it. rename the file to minecraft.zip (say yes when it asks you if you want to change the extension). then double click minecraft.zip and you will get a folder called minecraft. rename that (hit enter on the document) to minecraft.jar. then enter the file and drag and drop the files of the mod. Search for META-INF in the file, and DELETE IT. then start minecraft, and you should be done!
If you need any more help feel free to contact me on my server (ip: play.psi-craft.com) and /mail send themine12 <message>

Maintenance mode reset

The instructions for a maintenance mode reset of the original Humax & BT Youview are at
http://videos.youview.com/support/maintenance_mode.pdf
Is there a comparable set of instructions for the G4 box ?

By request:
DTR-T2100 Maintenance Menu - For Dummies ( i.e. me! )
Maintenance Menu on BT DTR-T2100 Youview+ box.
1.     Turn off the DTR-T2100 using the switch at the back of box. Leave off for 30 seconds.
2.     Manually switch the TV to the associated HDMI or AV (Scart) port.
3.     Hold down the down arrow button (the button between the OK, Power and Record buttons on the Control Panel on the top of the box) whilst powering on the DTR-T2100 using the switch at the back of the box.
4.     Keep holding down the down arrow button as the “BT Logo – Waking Up” screen appears.
5.     After a few seconds the "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: POWER)" message appears towards the bottom of the screen. Immediately release the down arrow button.
6.     Press the Power button once on the Control Panel on the top of the box. (A small amount of patience is now required) The "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: POWER)" disappears from the BT Logo – Waking Up screen. After several seconds the screen goes blank. After several more seconds the Maintenance Mode menu finally appears.
7.     Select the Recovery option required using the Up and Down arrow buttons on the Control Panel on the top of the box and use the Right arrow button to confirm the option.

I have problem with my iPhone 4s, the problem is i can't turn on wifi, though i have wifi address in my iPhone setting when i go to the general then about option, i tryed many options like turning of iPhone in airplan mode, reset options, but still the same, its gray button of wifi, please help me.

Hello Pllumb,
It sounds like you are unable to turn on Wi-Fi because the option is grayed out in Settings. Use these steps from the following article named:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Reset failure count after?

In DS 5.2 there are three parameters for account (password) lockout:
lockout account after n login failures
reset failure count after n minutes
lockout duration n minutes
I do not fully understand the "reset failure count" parameter and how it affects the other two. Should it be under or over the lockout duration or does that matter? For example, If my lockout failure is 12 and duration is 12 hours, what should the reset be? Whats the best practice too? In general what do people set these at? Thanks.

The main objective of the parameter is to avoid brute-force attacks without affecting normal users that during a more or less long period, sometimes type their passwords incorrectly. This is specially relevant when the lockout is permanent.
I will try to explain the parameter with an example. Imagine you have set the following configuration:
Lockout account after 5 login failures
Reset failuer count after 10 minutes
Lockout duration Forever
A user tries to bind
01/01/2006 13:21:04 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:06 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:07 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:12 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:24 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:42 (bad)
The first five attemps will result in an invalid password error code, but the sixth will result in an account lockout. The user won't be able to bind succesfully until administrative actions are taken, even if providing the correct password.
Nevertheless, if user tries to bind at
01/01/2006 13:21:04 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:06 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:07 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:12 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:24 (bad)
02/01/2006 13:21:42 (bad)
02/01/2006 13:21:43 (ok)
this last attemp will result in a success code. As more than 10 minutes have passed since 5 and 6 attemps (a full day), the counter has been reseted and the account hasn't been locked out.

I can not access pages-numbers etc after resetting my mac air

Hi,
I can not find pages-numbers and other office doc after resetting my macbook air.
Even i can not find those prg at appstore/purchases.

Try this - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

If not:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then:
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I reseted my MacBook Air, and now I don't have my iphoto and microsoft office anymore, please help me..how can i get them back?

Thank you for your question,
If you have the installation disc for iLife and MS Office, then you can install it from there. With iPhoto, if you downloaded it from the Mac App Store, you can redownlad it fron the "Purchases" tab.

'Famous' blue screen at startup AND safe mode boot failure

Dear all,
Two days ago, after installing the new Java update/airport update and restarting, I encountered a 'blue screen' on startup after getting past the mac symbol and swirling cog. I cannot say whether the updates were the cause (doubtful) of if my cheap USB mouse that was still plugged it caused it or whether i have the dreaded 'bad sectors.' The cause aside, here is what i've tried to fix the issue:
1) Disk Utility - Verification (OK'd) and Repairs (fine)
2) Disk Utility - Verification of Permissions (a few needed to be done) All repaired
-blue screen-
-Restart after period-
3) Rebooting in safe mode, removing startup items from the login items settings menu
4) Removing startup items from System/Library/StartupItems folders
5) Remove airport extensions (recent - date modified in list view)
(NB - safe mode i could say my desktop perfectl in original form and all files!)
-Restart-
-no longer able to start in safe mode-
-blue screen remains-
6)Single User mode -
resetting preference files (loginwindow.plist and windowserver.plist)
Finally system profiler from Tiger DVD states:
*Permissions repaired
*Dependency errors: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily & com.apple.kernel.iokit no valid version found
*Integrity: kext has no receipt
I backed up most my data from the LAST crash, but recent music/1000 photos and others have been backed up altho i've been meaning to! Help!
I'M PANICKING now can no longer get in SAFE MODE!!
Please help Mac911!!!!

G3 iBook 800mhz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Update:
So, I managed to do ALL that you said, EXCEPT, the reboot and work fine business.
I created the admin account which works fine. So now I can see three user accounts (looks like there as already an admin type one).
The one I created works fine, only, I can only access/see the login screen through a safe boot, (otherwise blue screens...) . I can get into the admin account fine, but when restarting and logging in as my original user account it won't boot. Something is very wrong in MY user account. I think at this point my data there is still retrievable somehow for a backup, clean start. but i haven't reached that point yet.
Anyone have any clues what migt have caused the error in my user login?
One of the things I tried (too hastily now i admit) first was to remove the recently added updates from the extensions folder. has this exacerbated the problem? Can i put them back without logging in as me??
remember from my first post system profiler says software/extensions integrity 'kext has no receipt' and dependency errors: 'com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily and com.apple.kernel.iokit; no valid version found' - whereas in my newly created admin account it appears AOK.
is this the source?
any ideas anyone?
sorry lots of queries here but i am ever hopeful.....
All yours,

Factory reset for macbook air 2012???

I was given a macbook air and I would like to factory reset it but I dont know how. he doesnt remember any old passwords and ive never used a mac. the OS X UTLITIES panel appears when I turn it on . I just wanna bring it back to "right out of the box" status. help! lol id really appreciate it

The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this seemingly straightforward task very complex.
How you go about it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number onthis page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
1. If you don't own another Mac
a. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
b. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
c. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
d. Some 2010-2011 models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you can't reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and Internet Recovery will not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
2. If you do own another Mac
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
3. Partition and install OS X
a. If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
b. Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
c. An unusual problem may arise if all the following conditions apply:
          OS X 10.7 or later was installed by the previous owner
          The startup volume was encrypted with FileVault
          You're booted in Recovery mode (that is, not from a 10.6 installation disc)
In that case, you won't be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for guidance or see this discussion.
d. After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
e. Run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
4. Other issues
a. If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
b. If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
c. When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.

How to reset my macbook air 2012?

hi,, my name is jovito ,,i have this macbook air 2012,, and i planning to buy the new version,, and my friend want to buy my 2012 air.. but before he buy this air,, he wants me to reset it first.. and i dont kmow how to.. please help.. thank you...

Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
Run the Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted
If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
Erase the data partition(s) with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall the original OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by booting into Internet Recovery (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from discs or a read-only USB key, deliver those to the new owner.
The new owner will have to repurchase the software, if need be, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer them either.
Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

How do I reset my MacBook Air for a new user?

I have an older MacBook Air that I want to pass on to another user. Since it does not have a CD Drive, how can I reset the OS?

You would use the Recovery Partition to erase, and resintall the Operating System, provided you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.
Boot to it by holding don the OPTION key while booting, then select the Recovery Partition from the list of bootable partitions.
