My ipad won't connect to the internet because I am too far away from the internet connection box.
I cannot get my ipad to connect to any WiFi because of where it is. When I am next to the internet box, the signal is stong, but once I change rooms the signal goes away. What do I do to change this? I want to be able to be in any room of my house and still use my internet on my ipad. Anyone have any ideas!! Please help!
Sounds like your "internet box" (router) has a weak antenna, or a weak signal setting. You will have to figure out if your router has a power setting to boost its signal. Look in the manual for it.
Or get a better router with better signal. There's nothing from the iPad side that can be done to increase the signal though.
You might also want to try positioning the router in other locations, there may be something near it that may be interfering with the signal.

I shot a video using my iPad 2, and it is too far away from the subject. How do I zoom in and save the whole video like that? Thanks!
Sorry to be such a moron with this, but I just don't have much experience with this iPad. I have had it for over a year and I just keep adding stuff to it and it has worked great. Now that the memory is used up, I am trying to figure out how to free up space and not lose what I have paid for.
So, Step 1 is complete, as I have "Transferred" all of the purchases.
What is Step 2? I unchecked the concert on the iTunes library, did a sync, but it's still on my iPad.
Thanks again for the help!!! -

I have an Ipod Touch 4G, Although I have tried two connection leads to the computer, it comes up with the message ' Itunes could not connect to "Dads Ipod" because an invalid response was received from the device'. I can access the contents of the device via the connection leads using 'My Computer' but not through Itunes as the message always appears!! Using WinVista Homebasic. Is this a known fault with the Ipod4 and VISTA? It works okay on a laptop, however, I would like an expert to take me through the steps to sort out my home desktop computer? Please help? Thanks in advance

Error: Boot camp assistant: Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
OS 10.9.1
iMac 27-inch, Late 2009
Boot Camp Assistant Version 5.1.0 (473)
Every time I run this I get the above error after I hit "Continue" on the "Save Windows Support Software" page and subsequently hit "Download Windows 7 Support Software."
How do I successfully install 64 bit WIndows 7 on my iMac?
Thank you!Waited a month and tried again with the same result. What gives? Does Apple no longer support Bootcamp with Windows 7? Do they not read these posts and help out customers? If Apple doesn't care and won't help, can anyone else suggest something? My large company does not like Apple and barely supports those of us who buck the trend and buy Macs. If I have to buy a PC to support their software to work from home this only gives them more "ammunition" to decline to support Macs. Any advice anyone can give would be greatly appreciated!

Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server. this is the message that i get a few days now that i am trying to install windows through boot camp to my macbook!does anybody knows what i can do????
You keep it on the usb stick for after you boot into Windows. From Windows you install the Windows Support software on the stick. Do you realize that you need to buy and install Windows? The Windows Support software you downloaded is only the Windows drivers for your hardware.
Read the Boot Camp installation instructions and help guides located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ -
The screen on my Ipod touch came away from the back.
The screen on my ipod touch came away from the back and then stuck back down a couple of days later. The battery seems to be weak now but everything else is OK. What could have caused this? Over chargibg in the car cradle?, Heat? Being held too tightly in the cradle?, Getting water inside?
Has this happend to any of you.
DanIf you have successfully restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I try to get Windows 7 on my iMac 21.5-inch but on the Bootcamp Assistant I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." Please help me and thank you.
I have that problem too. There's many other discussion threads as well. Either Apple doesn't realize they have a problem, or they do and simply don't care. Either way, not good.
There is a workaround that I'm going to try next. Go to this webpage:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
Scroll down to the middle of the webpage. Hit "Expand All". Now, search the webpage for the Apple product name of your computer. It should be something like "MacBook Pro, 17-inch, Early 2008". If you're unsure what you have, open "About This Mac" (upper left corner of your screen, Apple menu), and hit "More Info".
Now that you've found your computer, read across the table, to the version of Windows that you want to install (32-bit or 64-bit). Hopefully you'll find a "4" or "5" there. Click on that number, to go to the download page for the drivers that you need. If you just see an empty box there, then you're out of luck....
Hopefully there will be drivers. Download those, unzip, and then copy to a USB stick that has been formatted for MS-DOS FAT (or FAT32). Use Disk Utility to format your USB stick if necessary. Now, you have the drivers you should have gotten from the Boot Camp Assistant download. You should then be able to go back to Boot Camp Assistant and follow the instructions from there.
Hope it works!

I use a Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010 on Mavericks and I've tried using the Boot Camp assistant to download support software for Windows 7. This gives the error "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
Further, I tried to separately download Boot Camp 4 and 5. When I do this and try to install from Windows 7, it says that this version of Boot Camp is not for this computer and doesn't install. The result is that I have Windows 7 working and installed, but am unable to use the trackpad to rightclick, brightness settings, etc.
Please help!
ThanksYou need to run Bootcamp Assistant and select only the menu item to download the Windows Support Software. Follow the instructions. The download servers are extremely slow therefore it may take several hours to get the download.

hi there i was trying to install windows via bootcamp and when i was trying to download the support software i had an error of "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." i am using a 15" 2009 macbook pro and the bootcamp version is 5.1.0 (473). can anyone help? thanks in advanced
Instead of downloading the Windows support software from Boot Camp Assistant, download it from the Apple website. Mid 2009 and older MacBooks Pro only support this Windows support software version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630 This version allows you to install a 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 version.
Follow Apple's steps to install Windows on your computer > http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf -
Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server...what does this mean? I'm trying to install windows 8.1 on my early 2009 iMac. I double check with telephone support to make sure I am able.
Assuming you are referring to the Windows Support software, normally it means the download server is busy or off line. If you know what version of the support software you need you can get it here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/downloads/
But in your case since you have an early 2009 iMac, your computer does not support Windows 8.1. See this table from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
