My iPad is doing some strange things. Any suggestions???
Hi everyone
Thanks for taking time to read this. My iPad is doing some odd things and I think it's been sicne iOS 4.2 update. The problems I'm having are:
1) I installed The Sun newspaper app a few months back and it's been workng fine but recently it's having problems loading saying it cannot contact the server and to try later. My ISP says nothing is blocked their side. The Sun say everything is fine their side. I've updated my router but still no good. Now and again and with no pattern it will all of a sudden work. Interestingly thought, it works fine with my 3 MiFi dongle. The News Of The World App does the same thign, yet The Times and Financial Times apps work fine.
2) When surfing on Safari it will now and again say there was a problem displaying the page. I refresh a few times and it will load. When it's saying it can't display the page I have jumped on my Windows 7 laptop and accessed the page fine.
I have done a restore from back up and also a restore and setup as a new device. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the problem apps but to no avail.
Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks again in advance.
Hi,
1. Try resetting network settings. Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
2. For Safari. Tap Settings / Safari. Clear the history, cookies, and cache.
Restart your iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
See if you notice an improvement. If not, try syncing but omit the Sun app.
And try contacting the Sun app developer support.

I want to reinstall CS4 as it has been doing some strange things regarding printing, etc. However, when I did this before, it created a major problem and I ended up buying a new computer because no one could figure out why it kept hanging up during the installation. Hours on the phone, no results. I'm scared to do it on this computer. Should I try? Not even the Adobe support could get it resolved. I believe it was somehow reading a product number that could not be deleted or something, and nothing worked.
Message was edited by: Doug DougHello, as an addition:
In your case I would download a really new trial version of your program(s) in question and change it/them into a "real" version later, BUT because you said, that you "re-installed" already, so it will become a little bit more complicated. It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool" as Keith wrote.
Here an advice for that (The order varies depending on your individual needs. Please read all my proposals first, so you can better choose the first step:)
1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
3. Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
4. If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for may part - as it seems unlike you - had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.

Iphone doing some strange things!
I'll start from the beginning, I woke up this morning and my Iphone 4 wouldn't find a signal until I turned it off and on.
Skip forward an hour and I check it, it was saying (something along the lines of) 'Repair needed: Iphone cannot make or receive calls' so I turned it off and on again and that disappeared but now appeared 'Iphone needs to be restored' and it was on the emergency screen!
I plugged it into iTunes to restore it but it asked me for a lock code (which I had no way of typing in on the iPhone because it was stuck on the emergency screen! catch 22 or what..)
A quick google told me to put it into recovery mode and do a restore that way, which was all well and good until the end of the restore which popped up 'Error 1013'
I've tried this on my mac and my dads windows laptop and both give the same error.
Will I need to go to the apple store or is there anything I can do? I really don't want to have to make the trek to town unnecessarily (also I'm dying here without a phone! haha)
Can anyone offer some help?A little long but this thread might help with the 1013 error... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12632690�

I traded my iphone in and now have a new one (iPhone 5) with the same SIM. Since, I have had some iMessages meant for someone else and some strange things happening on my phone (applications opening by themselves, calls disappearing from log). Any ideas?
The answer is very simple: You were not the original owner of the phone. Target sold you a phone that had been returned. You can verify the date of the original sale here: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage. I suspect you will find that the warranty expiration date is not one year from the date that you bought it.

Recently my iPad started doing an odd thing. When I go to Google and touch to type something the keyboard appears, but immediately disappears. When I touch the second time the keyboard comes up and stays up. Any idea why it is doing that and anything to do about it?
Did you try rebooting the iPad? It can cure a lot of really simple little hinky issues.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
After update 6.0.1 I am unable to conduct online banking with wifi on. I can with 3G and wifi off. Same with iPad or my iPhone 4. Any suggestions?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

I have iPad 2. Just bought Panasonic AF200. I have adapter to upload pictures. My iPad says device not compatible. Any suggestion to get it working
Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks -
I have automatic upload etc. activated in Photo Stream. I just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, but nothing is sowing up on my iPhones my iMacs iPad or on Apple TV. Does anyone have. Any suggestions as to what I can. Do? I am currently on permahold with. apple Help.
THANKS!My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or http://www.apple.com/contact/
We are just end users here helping other end users.
Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
Good luck! -
I opened my account on the MacAir and have the new Mountain Lion showing i purchased. When I open my account on my other two machines it does not show. Any suggestions on why or how to fix?
iMac and Mac Pro
ThanksSADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much. -
Ipad2 printer is wifi but iPad can't find it. Any suggestions please.
I have bought a wifi printer, connected it to sky router but iPad can't find it. Any suggestions please.
Left to its own devices, the iPad won't find any printers at all except for, I gather, AirPrint ones. All the rest have to be handled in various different ways through various different apps and techniques.
Suggest you provide a bit more information about what you're actually trying to connect and perhaps someone can provide some more specific info for you. -
Hi, I'm currently browsing the web looking for a case that is compatible with the smart cover for the iPad 2. If anyone has any suggestions I would be glad to read all opinions! Thanks!
I love the Smart Cover. It fits the way I work and I love the instant on/off and the always available screen protection. I wouldn't use my iPad without it.
I got a Cover Buddy for the back, because I wanted the back to be less slippery when I'm using the iPad in the classroom, teaching. I picked this back cover because it's VERY lightweight, easy to get on or off and, protects the corners, has accurate cutouts for the ports, and (in the colors) has a rubberized surface:
http://www.switcheasy.com/products/CoverBuddy/
I have a Built NY "hoody" slip on case with a hard internal shell that I use when I'm in the field and I can put the iPad with the Smart Cover and the Cover Buddy inside this . But for everyday use, the Smart Cover with the Cover Buddy is a terrific combination. -
I created in iMovie, and extracted audio from one of the clips to use in the title sequence. All is well, export to iDVD and it plays OK, but when I burn the DVD the audio for the titles does not play. Any suggestions?
I am on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.6.7 running iMovie '11 and iDVD 7.1.1. Thanks for any input.

My iPhone 4 worked fine last night. When I woke up this morning, it had shut off and will not turn back on. I looked up the HOME+SLEEP key solutions, but my home button does not work. Any suggestions?
Try a reset: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.
