My FaceTime on my iMac has stopped working but it still works on my ipad whats wrong

My facetime on my imac has suddenly stopped working and will not accept my password, it still works on my ipad what is wrong

Either the physical drive or the enclosure electronics has failed. The light you are seeing is powered by the USB connection, the power, electricity, all USB ports put out. That doesn't mean the actual physical hard drive or the USB to SATA bus electronics are working properly. If it doesn't show in Disk Utility then it is DEAD.
Most of the time it is the enclosures electronics that fail. Removing the physical drive from the enclosure and put it in another enclosure or using a SATA to USB adapter, one that has it's own AC power supply, might allow you to get the files off the drive.

  • Dictation on my new iMac has stopped working on both the internal

    Dictation on my new iMac has stopped working on both the internal & external microphones. Any suggestions?

    Does the onscreen microphone come up but it doesn't convert speech to text? Or does the onscreen microphone not appear at all?
    In System Preferences > Dictation & Speech > Dictation, is the microphone set to "Automatic"? You might try setting it to "Internal microphone" to see if it works.
    Have you tried restarting the iMac?

  • My microphone has stopped working on my ipad 2 16GB 3G.  How do I get it to start working again?

    I am not sure when it happened but my microphone has stopped working on my ipad 2.  I downloaded an application from the App Store called Starmaker for my daughter.  When she tried to follow the start up instructions, she could not make a demo recording as there is no sound.
    My daughter and I have used the recording/sound facility before as, when away from, I have used Skype and my daughter has used the talking animal apps.
    I have tried a hard reset and tried to clear the microphone by blowing on it and using the hoover attachment to clear it but unfortunately there has been no difference. 
    I would be grateful for any advice you have to clear this problem, so I can have the full use of my ipad again.
    Thank you.

    If you have a passcode on the device and you don't know it, then thats another issue. For that, the ipad will need to be restored. This may or may not also resolve your mic issue.
    You didn't say wether or not the mic fails with just this one app, or with facetime and skype as well.
    Try this audio recording app if needed to test further

    I'd stay away from using anything like a vaccuum on the ipad, but clean air might work
    Try backing up the ipad to both icloud and itunes first.

    After backing up your ipad, then try restoring it, first set up as a 'new' device.

  • ITunes has stopped working when syncing iPad Air.

    Please:  someone help me....
    I am at my wits ends.  I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success.  I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems.   (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that
    if there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!).  It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem  There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
    there are just that - suggestions. 
    I have posted my problem on the Apple forum.  I have not heard.  But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem.  and now I have no idea which way to go....
    Rant two ends.  The problem:
    I have windows 7 SP 1.  iTunes 12.0.1.26.  I can imports CDs and play music.  But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue.  I problem have
    not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12.  (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some.  Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
    laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
    The steps I tried
    Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1).  Failed.
    Tried to sync iPhone 5S.  It stopped.  I then looked through the apps etc in the phone.  I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.  
    Tried again, and worked.  Hmmm.  (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
    Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result.  No success.
    I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled.  No success.  tried a number of times.  (one of the definitions stupid  is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
    Searched google, apple and microsoft pages.  Read them all.  No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
    Backed up iPad, and restored iPad.  No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state.  It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
    Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc.  No success.  Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
    Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4.  Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed).  Now, same result.  (it all worked happily previously)
    Tried a hard reset on the iPad.  No luck
    Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem.  Deleted iTunes and Quick Time.  Reinstalled iTunes.  No success.
    Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" .  Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG.  Same bad result.
    Status:
    I am thoroughly out of sorts.  And it is Tax time, which will not improve my temper.
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 installed. iCloud installed
    windows 7 SP1.  The PC is not asking for any updates.
    Qucktime not installed
    iOS 8.1.2
    iPad is probably useless, until problem solved - not all photos or apps downloaded
    HELP!!
    iPad Air, iOS 8.1.2, Windows 7

    Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
    There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
    Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
    Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

  • "itunes has stopped working" after connecting ipad mini to computer Windows 7

    itunes can play 2 out of 10 movies already on my computer. Otherwise, when I start to play the other movies, I get the notice itunes has stopped working etc.
    Quicktime Player VERSION 7.7.4 can get to the Apple Store and order a movie.  But when I insert my Ipad mini, itunes IMMEDIATELY "itunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."  
    I reinstalled lastest itunes 11.1.3  after uninstalling it, and placed it not on the C Drive, which is pretty full but on another drive. I use ImTooiTransferPlatinum to put muisc onto my ipad mini, not itunes.

    also when I open itunes in safemode (using shift+ctrl), it works normally...

    My screen roation has stopped working. It stays on the landscape setting all the time.
    Its not the screen lock or the mute button.
    I've completed a hard reset, reset to factory settings and updated the recent download and nothing is curing the problem.

  • MY PHOTO STREAM EXECUTION PROGRAM HAS STOPPED WORKING ON MY LAPTOP, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    My photo stream execution program has stopped working, what should I do?

    Best place to ask would be in the iOS discussion area. I don't own an iPad, but if I did, I'd be trying to sync to iTunes to preserve the data while I sorted out the problem with the app.

  • My new imac has stopped working!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!

    I turned my imac on this evening to find that after the grey apple screen, the 'Loading Mac OSX' screen comes on and then goes off and a black screen comes up.
    On this black screen it says:
    Login Apr 22 ntpd[148]
    Can't open /var/run/ntpd.pid input/output error
    Please help me, i don't know whats wrong and what to do to fix it. I had to press and hold the power button to turn it off. When i turned it back on - still the same thing.
    I have only had my imac for about 4 days... don't want to have to take it back already... just as i have finished copying all my files.
    Thanks for any help in advance

    Hello! At this point the first thing to try is to boot from the install cd/dvd. With the disk inserted hold down the "c" key at startup. Once booted run diskutility repair disk. You'll have to navigate within the installer window. If you can't get the tray open hold down the bouse button and turn it off and back on to open the tray. Tom

  • HT5176 Dictation has stopped working on my iPad 3rd generation

    I have always used (and loved) the dictation feature on my iPad 3rd gen. It has recently stopped working. I see the microphone hightlighted, but then it just spins and spins and returns to normal without showing anything written. I have done a hard restart a couple of times, checked the volume. Is there something else I need to do? I really miss this using this feature!

    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • My photostream has stopped working on my ipad

    Photostream is working on my iphone but no photos are coming through to my ipad for days.Everything is on wifi so thats not the problem.

    Make sure that the My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing are enabled in the Photos/iCloud preference pane.
    If they are then disable them, reboot, reenable and try again.  The My Photo Stream can be seen in the sidebar which is activated with this menu option:
    If you were using iPhoto 9.6.1 before upgrading to 10.10.3 you can still use iPhoto and your iPhoto library.  The iPhoto application is still in the Applications folder.  It was just replaced in the Dock by Photos.
