My email, when I open it, displays the emails, but also a rotating rainbow ball, which just keeps spinning. I can't access my emails, nor send nor receive. What do I do?

Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your email account name>Delete Account. A window will popu after you select your email account in the settings and there is a large red Delete Button at the bottom of the window.
Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Add account. Tap on Add account and start entering your email account details again. If your email account doesn't fit one the per installed accounts in there, tap on Other - and add your account in there.
I would restart the iPad after you delete the email account, just to be starting "fresh" again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button

Clifton I must disagree with you on the above statement. It is my opinion and experience that you should never connect the camera directly to any computer, Mac Windows Whatever.
It is always best to Remove the memory card from the camera and put it in a card reader, whether an external reader or one built into the computer, to copy images from the card.
Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)
Chiara, sorry for hijacking your thread.

Two days ago, I have a new iphone 4S. After I installed the OS and start the iphone, I found a strange screen says "!9D/JC" that blocks the iphone and I can not access the iphone until click many times on the "Desmiss" button at the botom of the screen.

I appreciate if you could provide me support to solve this problem especially it consumes the battery a lot.

We had to change email and I can't access the old one. iCloud sends instructions to change passwords to the old account. I have tried deleting the old iCloud and create a new account, but it shows iCloud sent verification to the old email address again!

We had to change our email address and I cannot have access to the old one. I have changed accounts but iCloud sends verification instructions to the old address. I deleted the old but it won't let me access a new account without he verification and they keep sending it to my old email address.

Also-I tried to use my backup hard drive, but I wasn't able to drag/transfer/send/move any of my muic files onto my iTouch when the iTouch was connected to my computer. I can't figure out why it won't let me do that.
The only thing I can see when I open my iTouch on my computer is my file with photos. I can't see videos, music, or anything else. What's going on?

Can't access personal email and therefore can't access internet on 8703e

Hi there, I am having a very large problem, and it will take a while to explain. I spent most of yesterday trying to fix it, but all to no avail. Ok, so I bought a used 8703e BlackBerry on eBay, simply because Verizon is getting rid of their unlimited data plan on July 7 but will grandfather in those who have the plan before that date. Since I only had a regular phone, I needed a smartphone that was capable of having the plan so I could lock in. Unfortunately, I don't upgrade until August, and it would be stupid to buy a real phone before then. Hence, the BlackBerry. Now I activated it ok, and the calls and text messaging work. However, I only have the option to add an Enterprise email account under the setup wizard. I do not have an email setup or email settings icon like everyone says I should. Therefore, I cannot access my service books, and cannot sign the user agreement, and cannot get online. I saw online that this problem might be because it had an IT policy on it. Also, when I called Verizon, they said this was probably the problem. So I went through the steps listed - I upgraded my OS to the beta 4.5, I used the jl_Cmnder, I tried the policy.bin thing. In a way, these actions were successful - they eliminated the firewall that had previously been enabled. But it hasn't changed anything else. I saw that there was an option to create a Blackberry account online so that I could send myself the service books, and I thought that might work now that I disabled the firewall. However, for some stupid reason Verizon won't let you create an account online; it has to be done through the wireless device, which I can't do because I can't access the internet because I can't set up email and agree to the user terms. Ahh! In addition, I have done the Advanced Options - RHT - Register Now thing many times, and it doesn't seem to do anything. I just really need help. Is there a way to manually load the option for personal email on to the device? I think that if I could do that, then I could receive the service books, and all would be well. Thank you for taking the time to read this word vomit, and I anxiously look forward to your response!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
There is no manual way to add the Personal email configuration to a BB. That is 100% pushed by the carrier, when the proper data plan is enabled. But, if the carrier does not natively support that model BB, they most often will not push the SBs. You would have to do some very tedious things to acquire and install the SBs. Using a non-native BB on a carrier network that does not support it natively is very tricky indeed. I suggest you first obtain a commitment from VZW that they will allow your specific device on their network. Next, see if they support it natively; if they do, then go back to them for formal support...you are paying them for this service and they are not delivering it. If they don't natively support your model, then you will have a lot of tedious work to do in order to get it all working.
Good luck!

I lost everything in the menue bar at the top of the page and I can't find a way to get it back

I don't know what I did but suddenly I lost everything at the top of the page save for one line that contains "Bing" Yuck, MSN, news, video and stuff I don't and never use. But I can find a way to return Mozilla to its default format. I have removed firefox and relaoded it three times. Unfortunately that doesn't help
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a week ago, right after I downloaded and was talking on the phone and not paying attention as I clicked aroudn

In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide.

Hi K,
The fact that cleaning worked once still suggests a dirty lens. Try this alternate cleaning method: Use a credit card, or something similar, and wrap it with an LCD cleaning cloth type product (basically a thin micro-fiber type cloth). Gently slide the "cleaner" in and out a few times in the left side of the optical drive opening. Make sure you can hold onto the cloth so it doesn't get stuck inside the drive. This cleans the lens, which may be all you need.

In the icloud settings, I am told I need to accept the terms and conditions to use icloud. However, when I click on "Terms and conditions", I get a message "unable to connect to server". This has been happening for a week now since I upgraded to iOS 7.06. There is no problem with my wifi or cellular connectivity, all other applications work perfectly. P.S.I have never used icloud before, but wish to do so now. How do I overcome this problem?

Have you turned the iPad off then back on? That often helps with problems.

Bought seagur backup plus and used it to back up my Imac.Plugged it into my laptop and it only appears on the desktop and I can't access info/files on it.

I bought a Seagur back up plus to back up all the files etc on my Imac.However when i pluggedit into my laptop(HP) it mshows on the desktop but I can't access the photos,music etc on it.I got the EHD that was for mac or pc.

Can you provide a link to that, I cannot find any such OSX App!?

I'm using Windows Firewall and even turning it off does not change the situation and I can not access any new emails.

I was using TB on my XP machines and they went down so I was forced to move to a Vista based laptop. It eventually crashed and so I converted my computer from Vista to win 7, Home premium. In both iterations, I have been able to set up TB and transfer all the data & emails that was in them at the time ( from the bood drive that was in the xp machine). but since that time I have not been able to access anything new after that date. It will neither send nor receive emails from both gmail and cox.net accounts that I have. I've attached the settings below. I tried changing some things on [email protected], so that info is obviously wrong.
I've tried deleting TB but apparently have not been able to remove all the data because when I reload it, it just comes back immediately the way it was.
Any help would be appreciated. I really like how TB works and would love to be able to use it again.
Jim

I need help with Apple iCloud verification. I don't have the email and I can't figure out how to get Apple to send me a new one.

So, in order to back up my music and stuff to the cloud I need to verify my Apple ID and I don't have the verification e-mail. If someone out there could help me out by telling me how to get Apple to send another one, or if they can, I would appreciate it alot. Thank you!!!!!
