My Air won't do anything, I can't move the mouse and the keys won't respond. It came after an OS update from the Mac Appstore. HELP!
After an OS update, from the Mac Appstore my Air won't do anything.
I updated OSX from the appstore, and I restarted my laptop. Now I'm in the choose profile screen and nothing happends. At all. I can't move the mouse, the keys aren't responding etc.
You should also ask this in the MacBook Air forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?
You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue. -
My phone keeps freezing and I have the 5s and now it won't turn on but I can talk to sir
My phone keeps freezing and I have the 5s and now it won't turn on but I can talk to sir
If you can talk to Siri, but the screen is not turning on, try the 2 button reset. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake (Power) Button and the Home Button at the same time for at least 10 seconds. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If that doesn't make you screen come back on, you can try restoring your iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

I recently when to England. When I returned to the US, my iPhone 5 wouldn't find the 4G network. I've tried restoring network settings, I've tried hard resets. I finally wiped the phone, and now, it won't let me restore anything. I'm kind of stuck - this is both my personal and my work phone, so I'm really in a bother here. Help!
I had "do not disturb" on in England. I did take it off airplane mode periodically, but I never actually used the network. I stuck to local wifi to do brousing and a bit of messaging. It periodically told me I was on an English network, but I didn't actually use it. And I had data roaming shut off all together.
when I try to restore, I get this message:
Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes. If this problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support.
When I try it through iTunes, I get a similar message.
and the network just keeps saying, "Searching..." -
Can't export photos to a thumbdrive. I have saved them to a folder on the desktop, and it still won't work. Do I need to change a setting?
I have saved them to a folder on the desktop, and it still won't work.
What still won't work? You have the photos in a folder on the Desktop, right? So what happens when you drag that folder onto the thumbdrive? Many such drives have a slider lock switch. Make sure it's not in the locked position.
Otherwise give us more detailed info on your setup and issue.

I can not get my phone to sign in to my wi fi. I used to, then I lost power to the internet and now it won't. All other devices will.
Try forgetting the Wi-Fi network and then joining it again, just tap Settings > Wi-Fi > the arrow next to your network > Forget this Network, then join the network again.
If that doesn't do it, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -
MY DOWNLOAD KEEPS FREEZING AND I HAVE TO KEEP BUYING IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. IT'S WASTING MY MONEY. I HAVE NOW RENTED MY MOVIE 4 TIMES AND IT STILL WON'T FINISH DOWNLOADING. WHY CAN'T I GET THE RENTAL FOR FREE IF IT KEEPS DOING THIS? CAN YOU PLEASE HELP? THANK YOU.
Please turn off your caps lock. All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read. Many will not read such posts.
If it doesn't finish downloading then just click Store>Check For Available Downloads
There is no need to keep re-buying it. -

i tried to download the ios7 and when my phone rebooted it now says could not activate phone because the activation server cannot be reached, so now I can't get into anything on my phone
The activation servers are probably overloaded with everyone trying to update to iOS 7 today. You might need to wait and try again later.

I purchased Pro so I can edit my pdf doc and it still won't let me edit it. How do I edit my pdf file?
You say it won't let you edit it. What do you mean
* You don't know how
* The can't find the tools you expect to find for editing
* You know how to edit, but you can't select text to edit at all
* The tools are there but greyed out
* You get an error message (what?)
* Something else? -
I have an old apple id that I don't use (and I don't remember the password) and it now won't let me log in for updates, how can I delete it
Click here and try resetting that account’s password.
That Apple ID is stored inside each of those applications. If you can’t get back into it, you’ll need to delete and redownload all of them, which may require repurchasing paid ones.

New (3mo) macbook air screen goes black and sometimes won't come back on after I unplug it from the power cord. Any ideas why it is doing this? Sometimes I have to hold power button for 10 seconds for it to shut off then back on. Sometimes holding the power button for a second is enough for it to come back on.
I took it to the Genius Bar, and they identified it as a hardware issue. Just got it back today. Parts replaced were:
620-5629 Display Module — Symptom: Distored/blurred/focus video issue
605-3284 Top Case with Keyboard — Symptom: specific key(s) do not work
So far so good. I'd suggest taking it in and not trying to work around it — it's a rare hardware issue (given the number of threads about it) and should be replaced. -
What can I expect of my 4s with wifi connectivity. My 4s receive a signal from the same router I have always used. My 3G would pick up a signal throughout the house, and my 4s won't allow me out of the room. Is my new phone defective or just inferior.
4S at my house have stronger antenna than 3G iPhone. Reset Network Settings, tap Settings App>General>Reset, near bottom>Reset Network Settings. If still problem take to Apple for Warranty Coverage.

My keyboard will connect wirelessly but my mouse will not. I have tried many times, put new batteries in etc. The Bluetooth appears to be on (as the wireless keyboard is working). I don't have a 'wired' mouse so I can't get into preferences etc. Is the mouse dead perhaps? The green light is flickering so it should be ok???
Thank you for your help
Sully (frustrated Irishman)From what you say I would suggest the batteries are not connecting properly.
First, thoroughly clean all contacts, both inside the mouse and the contact points of the batteries. Use an alcohol based cleaner (whisky will do, hic!) dampen (not wet) cotton buds for cleaning.
Then check to see if they fit firmly. If you can shake your mouse and hear things are loose, that will be the batteries. Check the make. Apple and Duracell, in that order, are the best batteries. Where slight undersizing has been reported they are with other than the foregoing.
You can resolve the size problem with appropriate packing but that will always be a makeshift solution. After, reassemble, turn on the mouse and with luck, away you go.
Hopefully this will solve your problem but in any case let us know how you get on.
