i have a iphone 5 and my phones imessege has not been working, it connects to my email but not my phone number it says its an option but its in grey and i am not able to click it as an option

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the  go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

  • I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all.

    I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.

    I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
    There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
    Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet.

  • My iPhone 5 has not been working properly please help!!

    I have a 16GB iPhone 5 with the latest update (iOS 7.1.2) and lately (about a week or so) it's not been working right. It first started where the screen would freeze and then I'd have to click the power button and return to lock screen I get it to work again, or sometimes even turn off my phone. Then one day I tried to take a picture and it wouldn't let me?? So I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on it worked again. Then the other day I went to play music and it wouldn't let me. First I tried from the itube app then thought maybe the app wasnt working, so I went to my iTunes music on my phone and that wasn't working. It wouldn't let me press play/pause/next. basically it wouldn't let me do anything and then it just froze. I put it to sleep and went back to my music about 30min later and it was fine. Then today my screen froze so I held down the power button to turn it off. Nothing happened for 10 seconds then the screen just went black, no little spinny thing like what normally comes up when it powers off. Then no matter what I did it wouldn't turn on. I looked up on here how to fix this and found a solution (plugging it into my computer and holding the power and home button for 20 seconds). Anyway, basically what my problem is is that I dont want my phone to be like this? Should I take it in to be looked at or is there maybe an app causing this ?? I honestly have no idea and it just recently started being like this (I've had this phone for 3 months and it's new. It still has about 5GB of space left). Please let me know if you have a solution or if this phone just is like this. Sorry if this isn't very descriptive :/ Ive been able to get my phone working again every time so far, but next time I might not and I really want to fix it. Thank you!!

    Apple is aware of the issue and is workingon an update to address iMessage issues.
    In the meantime I have found that a good old fashion reset cures it for a while.
    Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
    Others have had success with this:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages
    Note: This will clear all wifi passwords.

  • I dropped my iphone yesterday on its backside from my computer desk to floor.the distance is about 50cm. and it has a  phone case. it did't work any  vertical direction lock .then i restarted my phone, it recovered.but i am not sure is it ok ?

    Good job with trying the two-button reset, that would have been my first advice for you.  Next, I suggest you take the reset/update a step further.  This step may risk losing the data on your phone, but since it's not working already, there may be no other solution.
    On your computer, make sure you have internet acces and the latest version of iTunes installed.
    Launch iTunes and connect the iPhone
    Press and hold both sleep/wake and home buttons
    After ten seconds, only release the sleep/wake button.
    If you were successful, the iPhone screen should stay dark and the computer should display a popup. 
    If you see a message saying "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode," then continue by clicking yes to each subsequent popup. 
    If the iPhone displays the silver Apple logo start over with step three of these instructions.

  • My imessage has not been working. the internet and imessage only work on wifi. how do i fix this

    MY IMESSAGE HAS NOT BEEN WORKING. IT ONLY WORKS WHEN I AM CONNECTED TO WIFI. THE INTERNET DOESNT WORK EITHER. I TRIED EVERYTHING AND NO ONE ON THE VERIZON PHONE NUMBER WILL ANSWER.

    First make sure cellular data is toggled on.
    Secondly make sure airplane mode is set to off.
    Thirdly, make sure to toggle to "on" the send text/SMS/MMS if you cannot use imessage.
    I don't know what model iPhone you have, if a 5,5c, or 5s make sure the Sim card is functioning properly. (Remove with device turned off, the carefully place back in device) then turn on the iPhone.
    Hopefully problem solved.

    May have other solutions.
    Good Luck

    Update to comment - I found this thread that is related:
    Did Adobe Acrobat Reader revert to this bad and nonintuitive way to highlight text? The highlight approach described in this thread - to select text with handles - does work, but it is truly slow and clumsy.

    What I am saying is ..........
    The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
    The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship  with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
    With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount  usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
    This is how O2 function and according to Gemma  this is how Vodafone work

    Hello
    Tap the screen when playing a song and you should see playback options and tap the repeat until it is white. When it is blue it on repeat and if it has a 1 on it then it is repeating the same song over and over again.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. 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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Hello Jm23ur,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,
    BobbyD

    You can only get those pictures from the other PC. Pictures that have been synced from a computer via iTunes are not in the iPhone backup. You have to get them from the other PC, not other choice.

  • My macbook(2008) has been working well until a few hours ago. I tried plugging it in to several outlets but the light stays green no matter what, It will not charge. Also it will not stay on or turn on if I unplug it from the outlet, anyone have any idea

    My macbook(2008) has been working well until a few hours ago. I tried plugging it in to several outlets but the light stays green no matter what, It will not charge on any outlet. Also it will not start when it is unplugged when my battery is at 50%. It also will shut down immediately if I unplug it from the charger, even though it says it isnt being charged by it. Can anyone help with this problem?

    So you have the 13" aluminum notebook that just says "MacBook" on the display, correct?
    You can get a new battery for $100 from Other World Computing here.
    Alternatively, you can get one through Apple for $130 here.
    I personally would go through OWC - they're a highly-recommended third party for these kinds of parts and their batteries work just as well as Apple's.
