What web page was that?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

My screen has gone dark -and I have done everything I know to fix it.
I've reset it, turned the brightness/backlight up, nothing. Anyone know how to fix this?
Then it's time to take your iPod Nano to your local Apple Store or AASP. Let the staff figure it out.

Thanks to anyone that can help. Have lost everything on my computer and am having to start all over again. Windows by the way. Just want to know how I can get my music etc from my iPod back onto iTunes without losing it all. Have got rid of all the CDs as well! Many thanks, Ian M
See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Ipod mini screen has gone dark, and when backlight goes on v
Ipod mini screen has gone dark, and when backlight goes on the centre part with writing etc is almost black with light around edge. will this go? do i need to send it back?
Maybe your backlight is burning out? That's what I would think when the center is black but the edges have light. I'm not sure if a reset would fix the backlight but you can try (hold the menu and center buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo and then release). If I were I'd send it back to Apple but do you know if you are still under warranty? You should be if you've had your iPod less than a year.

My iPad has a glitch and I have to reset all the time.
My iPad has a glitch and I have restore it already. Also I've reset it as we'll. it seems like it is ten steps ahead of me sometimes. Is there anything that I missed that I could use to fix this problem.
Try a hard reset. You won't lose anything. If you need to do a restore, your computer should back your iPod up first. Instructions in link below.

I received my iwatch 3 days ago, and it has just gone dark and no response at all. What else should I try before returning it?
you should probably charge it. Plug it into the wall charger and let it sit overnight. Then hold both the crown and side buttons together while it's charging for 10 seconds or more and it should turn on.

Hi Lisa Wozniak,
Are you on a slow Network Connection? I would recommend you to Clear the browser Cache and History and then try again or try using a different browser on a different Network Connection.
Let me know if it works or not.

i have done all 7 steps recommended by the troubleshooting articles and only when i restart my router does my library show on apple tv2 but only for about 5 minutes, this was never a problem before the updates of itunes and apple tv2, i have spent insane amounts of money on the apple store buying movies and tv shows that i cannot watch anymore, and no there is no firewall on my laptop nor my router, so no port configuration is needed
i have read many articles for this problem but there is no solution, some say restart the router, others say uncheck the option to sync iphone over wi-fi, others suggest not hitting the "done" button after setting up homeshare on itunes, NONE of them work. My itunes library disappears from ym apple tv 2 after 5 minutes or soDid not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.
The only thing I can think of is if you got a replacement D610 as rumored here:
http://nikonrumors.com/2014/01/27/nikon-is-replacing-some-d600-cameras-with-new-d610-model s.aspx/
In that case, you would need the new version of Camera RAW or DNG converter as per Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras .
The other thing to check is if the files open in the Nikon native ViewNX software. If they don't it's time to call the service center. -
my i4s wifi button is not working. when i opened the setting and then wifi the button is greyed out. then i opened general and then about. in the bar of wifi address it is written N/A. what does its mean. i have done all other things like setting >general<reset<reset network setting. but all in vain. tell me the solution
restore your phone as new through itunes. if the issue persists after a factory restore via itunes, it means you've got a hardware issue and the phone needs to be repaired

Firefox not remembering passwords or usernames. Have done all that's suggested, still no luck.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?<br />
There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page.<br />
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.<br />
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you and you need to sign in once again.<br />

My Ipad has gone blank and I can't get anything to come back up on the screen?
My IPad has gone blank. I was checking my mail and it started flashing and then it froze then it went blank. All I have is a screen saver picture. I can use Suri but nothing else. HELP???? I have turned it off and turned it back on still nothing.
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.
Connect the iPad to a power source to charge the battery just in case. -
