  • I click on firefox and i get the circle icon for 2 seconds and then it's gone. I tried to "trouble shoot" but not working either HELP!

    I googled Firefox and downloaded it for free. Now when I click on the firebox icon at the bottom of the computer page, a small blue circle pops up circles a few times and then goes away. I have tried to go to the menu button but when I do it just take me back to the previous page I was on.
    I cant seem to access firefox. Or reset it. What can I do to gain access again? The icon is still on my screen but I cant get into it.

    Hi there,
    Are you sure you downloaded it from mozilla.org and not from another site? There are unfortunately counterfeit sites out there that are trying to offer Firefox downloads when in reality they are malicious.
    Go to www.mozilla.org and make sure you install Firefox from there and let us know if that makes things work for you.
    Thanks!

    I fixed it!!
    While not connected to any USB cable I put the iPad in recovery mode.
    To do that turn the iPad completely off. Press and hold the home button while turning the iPad on, once you see the apple logo release the home button.
    Turn on your OS X mac after it boots up connect the USB from iPod to Mac. iTunes should start. If not launch itunes.
    Perform the factory restore process paying attention to all of the screen message windows. Then set up the ipad like it was new.

    Hi there Mullin1!
    I have a couple of articles here that can help you troubleshoot and resolve this issue. This first article will help walk you through some basic troubleshooting steps for FaceTime, and it can be found here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3367
    After going through those steps, if you are still having issues with your Wi-Fi connection, then you will want to reference the further steps located in this article:

    my ipad is still asking for the passcode while restoring and its dispalying and an error message. what should i do because i cant acess my ipad anymore. someone help me.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • I put my sim card into a new iphone and tried to change it back to the old one and now the phone is locked. It's asking for a passcode and I didn't have a passcode set up.

    Hi! I need help! I put my sim card into a new iphone (3g) and then tried to put it back into the old one to get my contacts from it. Now the old iphone is locked and it's asking for a passcode, but I never set up a passcode on it. Has anyone experienced this or does anyone know what to do? Thanks!

    Not sure if this applies to your region, but in Australia the SIM password is often written on the "credit card" sized plastic card that the SIM was provided to you with the phone by the telco. Do you still have this? It could be in the iPhone box?

    A similar unlocked iP5 will work on 3G but NOT on  4G as the
