HT202157 Apple TV says it is updating date and time after a power outage here. But nothing happens. The wheel just keeps spinning. What do I do to be able to use my apple tv?

Apple TV says it is updating date and time after a power outage. But the wheel just spins and nothing happens.. The software is updated and my wifi router is on and working fine and recognized by the Apple TV. How do I get Apple TV to work again?

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately "Restart" did not change the situation. I then used the "Restore" option. After about 45 minutes of the unit going through the process, Apple TV was up and running again.

Moving Photoshop catalog from PC to Mac - stalls at 'backup catalog step' - just keeps spinning with no action

I am attempting to move all my Photoshop Elements catalogs from an old PC to a new Mac; followed the online instructions and made good progress converting catalogs to Elements 12 (from 6) until I got to the step of 'backing up catalogs so I can load them on an external heard drive. That's where Photoshop stalls - just spins and no action. Any idea how to complete this so I don't lose all those catalogs in the transition?

stop the backup and try repairing and optimizing the catalog in the catalog manager (file>manage catalogs)

You have run into the most complained about bug in AppleWorks 6 - known as the "Recent Items bug" - & has been around since AppleWorks 6 was released in March, 2000. There are three user tips in the User Tips Library dealing with Recent Items., the first two by Dale Gillard & the third by Yvan Koenig

VPN-User,
Ok - I see the list of issues and will ensure our X300 specialist takes a look at it.
Please do understand that while you have put together a very coherent list, I try to ensure priority to threads in which multiple customers are focused on a single issue, as we deliver the most benefit to the community in working on those. This forum is primarly a peer to peer discussion forum rather than a Lenovo chat / tech support where we try to solve each and every issue put forth.
Individuals with a long list of issues on a particular machine may find benefit from either contacting technical support and working through their list, or publishing it as you have done and wait for other users of the same system to share their experiences.
Thanks for your patience

HT4534 how secure is face time on mac

How secure is face time on Mac. I have confidential conversations and I need security.

FaceTime is HIPAA compliant and encrypted as long as the wireless network being used utilizes WPA2 Enterprise security with 128-bit AES encryption. FaceTime conversation stream is encrypted from end to end, and each FaceTime session has unique session keys for each user.

you may have flipped the micro switch inside the audio jack. To rectify this issue take a toothpick an gently wiggle it inside your audio jack.

Try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try connecting the iPod to your computer and restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes.
- If itunes does not see the iPod, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restire it. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

Face Time for Mac, Server Error Message

After upgrading to Lion, whenever signing in to Face Time, I get a message saying, "the server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." I've tried both apple ids I have and both give the same message. Even tried creating a new one and still get this message. What gives?

I bought my iPad mini two weeks ago and used my apple ID to make it sync with my iPhone. But so far I have not been able to activate iMessage and face time. It only gives me the option of signing in and when I do that I get an error message telling me that either my user name or password for my email is incorrect; even though I have been using my correct my apple ID in the password entry area. My apple ID works for every thing else. Please, can you help in this case?

HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Have just purchased Face Time and it now appears on the dock but I'm unable to open it. Error message tells me there is an internal Face Time error. error.

Have just purchased Fac Time. it is downloaded and the icon appears on the dock. When I try to open it i get the message "An internal Face Time error has ocurred". Any suggrstions for a novice.

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.
