No internet for safari and .mac, but works for iChat and 3rd party browsers
After confusing safari (switching links while loading) sometimes I loose the internet connection for .mac services and safari. Safari will not connect to the internet, iDisk will not load or show in network prefs, etc. However, network still shows an internet connection, iChat still connects, third party (FireFox) browsers connect, etc. I just can't use some Apple apps that need internet. Usually, this has eventually corrected itself after reboots, but this time I can't get it to fix itself.
Odd, found it. Somehow the "web proxy" box was getting selected (by itself! a default?), effectively stopping the connection. Why that also affected some Apple apps and not others and not third party? I've no idea.

I have Wi Fi at home, over the weekend it stopped working on our Ipad and Iphone, yet it still works on Blackberry and laptop and desktop, have tried forget this network, have tried reset network settings but looks like nothing works, The Ipad and phone show the "mushroom" bars as if connected, yet it doesn't display the family wi fi network as normal,.....help
I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 tonight and initially had the same problem. I could send a text via iMessage only through cellular network; not my wifi. After fooling around with the settings for an hour or so, I THINK I solved the problem...
According to an article I read online, iOS 6 unifies your phone number and Apple ID. Therefore, if someone sends an iMessage to your phone number, you could hypothetically receive it via an iPad or Mac. In my case, I didn't have my cell number listed on my Apple ID account. Therefore, when I connected to my wifi, iMessage tried to access my number via my Apple ID. Since I didn't have my number listed, iMessage subsequently didn't work.
I logged into my Apple ID, added my mobile number. I also rest my network settings under 'settings,' 'general,' 'reset,' and 'reset network settings.' Then, I restarted my phone. Under my message settings, I selected 'send and receive' and made sure BOTH my phone number AND email address were selected. Everything SEEMS to be working fine now...
Hope this helps! -
Problem with validateRegExp (problem with IE and chrome but works for firefox)
Hi everyone,
I have a simple af:inputText with an af:validateRegExp in it with pattern "([^$%# ]+([ ]*[^$%# ]+)*)$".
Now when I enter a very big value in this inputText and finally add a space to it, it gives a proper validation exception in Mozilla FireFox.
But when I run the same thing in IE/ Chrome the screen hangs and after some time page not responding exception comes. What it is observed in chrome is that after a very long time it gives the proper validation exception even if page not responding error has come earlier. Has anyone faced such kind of problem earlier? Is there any solution for this?
{code}
<af:inputText label="Label 1"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_datePOC.it1}"
id="it1" maximumLength="120">
<af:validateRegExp pattern="([^$%# ]+([ ]*[^$%# ]+)*)$"/>
</af:inputText>
{code}Hi Frank,
Thanks for your reply. I tried checking this pattern in java as well using an validator, in that case the thread got sucked for a bigger length string. So I guess the problem is with expression only. But I dont get one thing, if the problem would have been with expression it shouldnt have worked for smaller length string. But in this case it is working fine with a smaller length string.

My photos are not being updated through photostream on my mac computer, but are syncing on my iphone and ipad. Does anyone have any ideas as to what settings could be wrong?
What system are you running on your desktop Mac? Photo Stream requires a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later. So if your profile is correct you'll need to download and apply the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) updater.
If you're not running 9.2.2 or later do the same for iPhoto, download and apply the updater required to get you to 9.2.2 or later.

Idk what I did
I got it out!
Here is how.
None of the Apple-suggested ways worked. However, before totally giving up I started Roxio Popcorn and pressed the big eject button on it. It came out effortlessly!
So, I thought "Weird..."
I put the CD back in and reproduced my original problem. I got it out just as easily using Roxio Popcorn Eject feature.
So, I then thought "Maybe it is the disk?" There is nothing wrong with the disk as far as I can tell. It is perfectly round, has a smooth label-side surface. It is not even a label, it is a standard software install disk you buy in stores.
I inserted a different disk. The mini mounted it, I browsed it, and then ejected it by dragging it to trash. Worked fine.
I tried a few other disks.
The drive seems to work fine.
Maybe that CD is cursed, I dunno. I tried that disk in my PowerBook and it works fine there.
Who knows ?
I am still backing up my hard drive as I type this message in case I need to take it to the store. -
My PowerBook G4 says that it's connected to wifi, but it still no internet connection. The connection will work for a while, and then I'll have to run diagnostics and it will work again for a few minutes and then stop working again. What's going on??

I have seral email accounts on my Mac. One does not work on the Mac but works on my iPad and iPhone. The account information was added on the Mac. I keeps rejecting my password.
You don't input the information in manually for iCloud mail. It is automatically set up for you when you sign into iCloud via System Preferences and choose the Mail checkbox. Sign out of iCloud or deselect Mail in iCloud preferences. Open Mail's preferences and choose accounts tab. If iCloud account still exists in the list, delete it. Sign back into iCloud or check the box for mail. The account will be auto created for you.

Safari Hangs after deleting :Awesome" but works for few when restrating
Safari Hangs after deleting"Awesome" but works for few minutes once shutdown and restart
I tried to look at other similar problems and tried to play around with it.
What I noticed was that I deleted the application but did not uninstall the extension.
Now I have now uninstalled the extension and Safari is back to normal.
Thanks Andy for your response -
My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones and a USB cord that works from the laptop won't work from 3 or 4 different wall boxes that work for others. I'm stumped :/
Update: It seems as though the phone will charge if I plug it in and then turn it off. It will not charge while the phone is on. Also iTunes will not recognize it, so I can't sync or anything. I read somewhere that it could be a fuse somewhere?? Or maybe the dock connector. Where is the best place to get this repaired?

it should be all the MacBook Pro mid 2010 with symptoms, there should get their logic board changed for free, mine mac is 3 month late and i had this problem for over a year, but i first saw this article today
Hey Clintonfrombirmingham
I called Apple technical support in Denmark, but with no positive reply.
She couldn't do anything, and said that They had sent a recall Email about the problem and with their offer to repair the Macbook Pro, but I'd never recieved an Email about the problem. She wasn't in power to make an exception. It can't be true that i paid a lot of money, for a product that can't barely stand on its own feets, Apple didn't tell me that the product I was about to buy, would restart every 5 minute. and now when they know the problem, they wont repair it? it just don't make sense for me. If a car seller discovers that all the brakes in a car he had sold, will crash after some years he will call all the cars back to repair no mater what. i just don't understand how Apple will make good service for their custumers, by extending the warranty from 2 to 3 years, but wont take the computers there is a little bit to old, 4 months will make the difference. i can't believe it.
What can i do now?

First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first night.
The speed may have been ok at that time and is too inconsistent/too slow overall. interference may have proven to be more of an issue since as well. If using public DNS that will provide Intermittant results
I'm sure using a hotspot would be fine but it depends on your viewing habits. An HD movie is around 4-5GB. It would also be subject to speed. requirements so best to test to see how it compares.
You would have to check with your Carrier if hotspot it's enabled then just to into your settings and toggle it ON -
Hello all,
I bought an iPhone 5 in the US and brought it back to Brasil. Now I'm trying to use Siri, but once I press the "home" button "voice control" appears and it only works for me to call my contacts. The manual guide tells me to go to Settings>General>Siri. At the General menu "Siri" doesn't appear. What should I do to set Siri up if it doesn't appear at settings>general?
Thank you,
Melanie.Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure Siri is set to On.

I reset my ID and password for my Mac. How do I get that ID and password to work for my iPhone? My account is disabled on the iPhone until I have the ID and password synched for both devices.
You cannot merge iCloud/Apple IDs. You must decide which one ot use, one or the other. Login with your new ID on your computer.
Be aware that content/apps purchased with the old ID will be forever tied to that ID. -
