    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • Why has my USB Superdrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?

    Why has my Apple USB SuperDrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?
    Normally I plug it in and insert a CD or DVD and it is immediately recognised, but today it took the DVD, made a 'whirring' noise for a few seconds and then stopped without being recognised.

    Try the options on this list:

  • HT203175 While trying to use my iTunes library it will suddenly stop working with the erro message Runtime error R6025 pure virtual function call.  HELP!!!

    While trying to use my iTunes library it will suddenly stop working with the error message Runtime error R6025 pure virtual function call.
    Help???

    Just responded to this in another thread (note we used Captivate 7 so it might be a different error).
    We found that when we created files with embedded swf files that existed ABOVE widgets in the timeline, when someone else tried to open our file it broke/we got the runtime error. The original person could still open it for a time, but eventually the cache would clear and they couldn't.
    However, if we ensured swf files are BELOW widgets in the source files, it didn't break. In fact, if we found one that was breaking and got the author to move the swf file on the timeline, it would start working for others.
    STRANGE! Let me know if this works for you to!

  • My macbook camera has stopped working - tried on Skype, Facetime, and Photobooth. Any ideas how to fix this?

    My macbook (purchased in 2007) Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 camera has stopped working - tried on Skype, Facetime, and Photobooth. Any ideas how to fix this?

    If restarting doesn't fix, use the relevant suggestions from Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight.  If nothing else there works, the repair by an Apple-Authorized Service Provider suggested there and by spudnuty will get it sorted.
    (Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

  • IPhone 3GS suddenly stopped working with wifi in only one location

    This is the situation.  I have an iPhone 3GS and it the wifi suddenly stopped working at my house (just with the iPhone).
    I have an Airport express (latest generation) and a time capsule (1st generation).  All of my devices (except a PC laptop which isn't much of an issue, and the iPhone) cannot connect to it.  The devices I have are as follows: Apple TV, iPod Touch, iPad 2, the "new" iPad, a macintosh computer.
    However, when I move the Airport express to my work location, and plug it into the ethernet there, the iPhone works totally fine.  It seems like the issue is just at my house.  The Time Capsule works intermittently sometimes; random devices cannot connect to the network sometimes.  The airport express seemed to fix this problem.  I have read that this problem is related to the operating system "Lion" but the network was working fine for months and months after I have upgraded to lion.  Sometimes both devices cease to work, and there is no internet to any devices in my home.
    The network is password protected, so that removes the possibility of neighbors connecting to the network.  The name of the network contains spaces and "symbols" which I have heard is an issue for PC's trying to connect to networks.  Both my home and my workplace are on the same internet provider.
    My questions are:
    Why does the airport express work with the iPhone at my workplace and not at my house?
    How many devices can a 1st gen Time Capsule handle at once?
    If I buy an airport extreme, will it fix this issue?
    How can I fix this?
    I have restarted the device several times (both the iPhone and Time Capsule) and it still didn't fix anything.

    Using the delete all content and settings option is not restoring the iPhone. Using the delete all content and settings option does exactly that - all content and settings are securely deleted except for the firmware, which is not a restore.
    If you do this followed by re-installing an app via the iTunes sync process, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will be lost. 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is not stored with the app on your iPhone and is not stored with the app or synced with the app in your iTunes library on your computer.
    3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is stored separately from the app on your iPhone and is included with your iPhone's backup which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
    Restoring an iPhone with iTunes completely erases the iPhone first followed by the firmware being re-installed. After the firmware is re-installed, you are prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. The other selection available is as a new iPhone. After either one, this must be followed by a sync with iTunes. If you restore from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installing an app that stores data you need to access, the data will be restored with the app. If you restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installng an app, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will not be restored with the app since you didn't restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup where this data is stored.
    If you restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup with no change, you can follow this by restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup to recover the 3rd party app settings and the data created and stored by the app along with all other data included with your iPhone's backup.

  • HT204368 My Bluetooth just suddenly stopped working with my vehicles factory system. It's worked for almost a year with no issues. My wife's phone will easily paid with the vehicle,so nothing has changed with the vehicle. What gives apple?

    Why would my bluetooth suddenly stop working?

    I have had non-Apple Bluetooth devices simply stop communicating after being paired with a device for a year or longer with no apparent reason. The solution was simply to pair the device again.
    An explanation is likely to be elusive, resulting only in manufacturers of the devices blaming each other for deficiencies either real or imagined.

  • Camera suddenly stopped working

    Suddenly the camera on my iphone 3g stopped working today. I focus it and press the button; the shutter goes (although I don't hear a click), and then it just exits out to the home page. And no picture is there.

    You know that you don't need to get to the store to send it in for warranty?
    And why would you not want the camera to get fixed or have a whole phone.. But if you're not gonna sell it after a year or two, and can live without the camera i guess it's ok to be without
    Btw, i think however you could restore your phone all by yourself with doing a total restore. Just back up whatever you got on the phone before like in the link that is given above.

  • Camera suddenly stopped working HELP

    I have been editing with a Canon ZR-80 on my G-4 laptop. For no reason, that I can determine, the set-up stopped working today. I hooked everything up and when I opened FCP it said it was not seeing a device. I made sure the camera was in VCR mode, cable secure, on etc and everything was fine. I continued and tried to capture anyway. When I pressed play the camera started playing the video, but you couldn't see it on the log and capture screen. It just says, Device not available.
    Please help!

    update quicktime today?
    if so ...
    To do a full quicktime reinstall.
    Go to /library/receipts and delete any files that say Quicktime followed by a number e.g. Quicktime703.pkg
    Go to the Apple quicktime site and download the appropriate version of Quicktime to your hard drive.
    Run the Quicktime installer.
    Repair Disk Permissions for your System Disk (Disk Utility > Select the system disk > Repair Disk Permissions)
    Reboot
    Good luck.

  • Flash has suddenly stopped working with Safari and Firefox.

    I have a Wordpress blog. Suddenly, Flash has stopped working on Safari and Firefox in relation to my Wordpress module. But everything works fine from my PC laptop and other MACs owned by friends, etc. It is only on my iMac that Flash has stopped working. Any ideas?

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system? Do you have a 32 bit or 64 bit version?

  • I need help.. My front and back camera suddenly stop working.

    Few days ago, my front and back cmaera stop working. I tried all the possible options but still having the same problems.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    * No data is lost due to a reset

  • Audio suddenly stops working with my voice over although I can see the track there is no sound?

    So I'm doing a project and recording voice, in several parts, over with no problems. I go to play back and it all works just fine for a few minutes then the audio suddenly cuts out. I can see all the clips with the associated graphs and can't see any issues, the audio just stops???

    If it will not connect to your computer, and it will not connect to the Internet, either via WiFi or cellular data, then there is no practical way to extract the information. There are no magic words that will fix the broken hardware.
    You could try a 3rd party data recovery service, but doing so will forfeit your right to a discounted out of warranty replacement. Only you can decide it it's worth that.

  • Sony Handycam DCR-HC40 suddenly stops working with iMovie HD

    Is it possible the FireWire (iLink) connection is busted?
    I've bought two brand new FireWire cable and still iMovie couldn't see the camera. Camera has full battery; plays movies fine. Computer FW socket is fine too.
    Please, anyone, help?
    This camcorder menu is thoroughly confusing and now maybe something even worse has happened.

    Hi -- I've noticed quite a few posts from Sony camcorder owners who are having similar problems. I am having the same issue with a Sony DCR TRV240. I've used this camcorder successfully before via firewire with both an eMac desktop and a Powerbook G4, but suddenly I'm getting "Camera Not Connected". Despite following all the troubleshooting advice I can find from Mac and Sony, I've had no luck. I also purchased a new firewire cord -- didn't fix the problem. Did you ever solve your issue?

  • My blue tooth suddenly stopped working with my iphone 5.

    My blue tooth in my car worked in the morning and did not work in the afternoon. No changes were made to my car or iphone. Re-paring did not work. I even deleted my iphone and started over - still no luck. Any ideas?

    If you deleted the phone from the car, did you delete the car from the phone? If not, make sure they are both deleted from the other, then put both devices in pairing/discover mode. See if they will pair after that.

  • How do I resolve sound issues? I have gone to settings but I have not made any changes but some sounds suddenly stopped working like keyboard clicks etc.

    I haven't made changes to my sound settings but suddenly now certain sounds do not work such when I plug up to change, keyboard clicks on messages, etc
