My iPad recently flew off my SUV (embarrassing!) while driving, which mangled the back initially. But a little while later, the glass cracked as well. Without buying a new iPad (tight budget), what can be done to get it repaired? Thanks!

Looking for some help. I'm on a tight budget and had an embarrassing mishap in which my iPad (1st Gen) flew off my SUV while driving! I felt fortunate at first, because the iPad still works, but then the glass cracked a little while later. Mega-bummer as I used my iPad a lot - great product that I used on the road and in my recliner at home! The following are some pictures before the glass cracked. I would really value any assistance that can be provided as I look into getting the iPad repaired vs. replaced. Many thanks!
One of my many questions is, would it be possible to get the glass replaced and just have the back bent back into place?
Power Button, Volume Control and Rotation Lock (or Mute/Unmute) - none of these work at present. I presume that the aluminum is crimped down on the buttons.
Side profile - has a curve in it... similar photo to follow.
... and a shot of the back.
I must say, the iPad in its case was pretty durable considering that it flew off my SUV while picking up speed in upwards of 50 mph! Hats off to Apple for a good product! Thanks!

Apple does not repair, they replace.
I do not think they will touch your ipad since it was obviously abused and is not covered by warranty.

I bought PhotoShop 12.0 for Windows 8. I cannot find the Curves function in the program. Is Curves excluded from this version? If so, how can I upgrade to get Curves? Thank you!

Thank you, Michel, for your helpful answer. I have downloaded SmartCurve and saved the files in C:\program files\adobe\Photoshop elements\plug-ins. I re-started PhotoShop. Do I access SmartCurve to adjust curves from within PhotoShop?
You can acces it from the menu 'Filters', there is a line called 'Easy.Filter', click it and it shows 'Smartcurve'.
Separately, can I upgrade my PhotoShop Elements to Photoshop without signing up to the CC 'rental' system of monthly payments? Sincere thanks, Ted
I know that you don't need the CC 'rental' subscription to have Photoshop, but as far as I know, there is no upgrade path from Elements except periodical special offers.

Since installation of Mavericks, Time Capsule works very slowly, and the next backup of 236 GM will take nearly 30 days. What can I do to get backup more rapidly ?

Since the installation of Mavericks, Time capsule works very slowly and will need 30 days or more to produce a complete backup of about 200 GB. What can I do to get a complete backup more rapidly ?

What setup is the TC now.. ? what model and what firmware? Maverick seems to need 7.6.4 on the older TC.. and latest firmware on the AC version.
Is it in router or bridge mode? Do not use wireless only.. join a wireless network.
Is the computer connected by wireless or ethernet? I strongly recommend a test by ethernet.. with wireless in the computer turned off. If it is still very slow something is majorly wrong.. but I need the info I asked for to troubleshoot further.

Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

How can I get my photos off the old family album programme without buying a new photoshop programme?

The pop up to register my adobe photshop starter edition keeps coming up on screen. I have many family pictures I want to view, copy, print etc. I cannot get the code to unlock it as it states this programme is no longer available and the links forward me to a page to purchase another family programme - this is not something I want to do. Does anyone have any suggestions please??

Download the free trial of Photoshop Elements 10 using the link below. Use the Organizer to convert your catalog: You can convert catalogs made with previous versions of Photoshop Elements, or with Photoshop Album, so that you can use them in the current version of Photoshop Elements.
Select File à Catalog
Click Convert.
The Convert Catalog dialog box opens and searches the default locations for the catalogs of Photoshop Elements and Photoshop Album.
(Optional) To browse additional locations for catalogs, click Find More Catalogs, and browse to the locations.
Select a catalog from the list to convert, and click Convert.
To close the Convert Catalog dialog box, click Done.
The free trial Lasts for 30 days but only the Editor program expires. The Organizer is yours to keep.

I get the message "rnpag has stopped working" followed by "firfoxx has stopped working", what can I do to get firefox working again?

Over the past few months firefox has been crashing unexpectedly but just today it crashed and will not reopen even after shutting down and restarting my laptop. The message that appears when I start my laptop and again when I try to open firefox is "rnpag has stopped working" this is then followed by the message "firefox has stopped working" when I request a solution to the problem nothing happens.

You don't have "Photoshop" proper. You have a cheapo emasculated version called Photoshop Elements. That is NOT Photoshop.
As Gene told you:
Unfortunately, you're in the wrong forum. This is not the Elements forum.
Here's the link to the forum you want:

I am thinking up buying a new 15in MBP. What can be restored from my current Time Machine Back up?

This will be my second MBP, so first time to try migrating.
Can Time Machine restore software like SEE Finance, Microsoft Office, Norton, Adobe Lightroom from my current MBP? Or does it just migrate data.
How do I migrate my iTunes over?
Hope you can advise me.
Thanks

Hello,
Sorry for the trouble. I am Vineeth and I am from the Norton Support team.
It is easy to install your Norton product on your new MBP. You can follow the steps in this support article to download and install the Norton product: http://www.Norton.com/install

What can I do to get my pictures back if my iPhoto doesn't want to open anymore?

My iPhotos says I have to restart or shutdown my computer in order for it to reopen but when I do so it just keeps saying the same thing and now I have lost all my photos. What can I do to get them back?

Hmmm
Using a computer without a back up is, frankly, like driving without a seat belt. You'll be fine - unless there's a problem. If there is a problem then you'll be rather worse off than if you were wearing one.
Updating software - any software, apps, OS, plug-ins, anything - without a back up is like driving drunk and blindfolded without a seatbelt... The same warning applies but you're much more likely to have an issue at upgrading and installing time than other times.
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

Look under the Store menu in iTunes for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the track there to be downloaded. If not, and you're in the US, just look under the Quick Links on the main iTunes Store page for the Purchased link. Click that and you should be able to find and re-download the track.
If it's not there, or you're not in the US, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their contact page and explain the problem to them.
Regards.

I have an I mac with Lion and the curser freezes, what can be done.

I have an I mac with Lion and the curser freezes. It froze in Word, Safari, Iphoto, and photoshop, what can be done?.

4GB of RAM is not very much RAM these days particularly if you tend to have many windows open at one time. For example if you are working in Safari and have several tabs open and then work on a Photoshop project that will eat a lot of RAM. One simple way to check is open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and click the System Memory tab. Run this under typical use and check the amount of FREE RAM. It will look something like:
I can see from my example I am dangerously low on RAM by the amount of free RAM I have. I suspect if you upgrade to 8, 12 or even 16GB of RAM your machine would work much better. BTW ...my MacBook Air is limited to 4GB so it's up to me to manage my RAM better.

HT1212 My fully charged iPhone screen is black and not responding. what can I do to get it to work again? I have never syncd on iTunes. I connected to my laptop and iTunes app displays error msg saying phone is locked and unlock phone to connect.

My fully charged iPhone has a black screen and is not responding but has Siri and sound. I connected to laptop and iTunes gives error msg indicating phone is locked and I to enter passcode. but I can't enter the passcode because the screen is black. I have never syncd with iTunes. What can I do to get my phone back?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.
