Not being able to shut off the power with the remote
There has been much discussion on this subject but I didn't see where anyone addressed the question of power consumption. If I do not manually turn my boxes off, how much will it cost me per year to leave the power on?

Does anyone know how to resolve the problem of apps not being able to download in the App Store? After the IOS 6 update I haven't been able to download any apps.

Constant problems: asking for password, not retrieving mail from the server,leaving things in the outbox. Then it can be fine for days. iPad and iPhone apps sometimes hang for a bit as well.
A friend just bought an iMac and has had nothing but trouble with ROGERS mail. Support guy walked us through the whole set up today and everything was fine for a while and then it just quit.
I am wondering if having an IPad, computer and phone all communicating with server at the same time causes problems. -
In the attempt of updating my ipod touch, i am faced with the problem of not being able to be connected to the itunes in my computer (windows xp ) because my ipod touch got blocked up, leaving the icon of USB cable and itunes on my touch screen. I am asked to restore my ipod first, but i have tried using all the examples stated and still can't help. Please please, can some one help me out ? Ones in the process of trying, i see an error code: 1656 and most of the time nothing. Thanks
See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore via iTunes
Next try DFU mode

I want to download a picture from my hotmail email, but it keeps reverting back to the email pic. Wont download it. I had to go to my Yahoo account to do this! When I went to the feedback for the New beta version FireFox 4 I was told I had to install the beta version - WHICH I already have! HELP
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I downloaded the Beta version FireFox 4The version I am using is 4.0 - I went and Reset user agent to everything showing on the link sent:
general.useragent.extra.firefox;Firefox/4.0b1
general.useragent.locale;en-US
general.useragent.security;U
I am still unable to download pics in hotmail..... Along with not being able to use Aviary Image Editor as it says it is Not compatible with the 4.0 version. So that Add-on picked up the right version I am using. (I use this to take ScreenShots!) - I sure hope this will be available when FireFox 4.0 is fully launched.....................
Along with the email pic problem :(
Thanks for the help -
DVD Drive not being able to boot off of. Not seen in Boot Menu options in Bios.
HI Guys,
I am having a serious problem here and Lenovo Support has been bouncing me around between Hardware and Software Support.. They are extremely uneducated and I miss Dell Support. They are not educated about their own product and it saddens me. Here is my problem and there should be a simple soulution. Please help.
1) I have a IdeaPad U 430 Touch laptop. It came pre installed with Windows 8 Home. Unfortunately Windows 8 Home did not work with any of my Business Applications..
2) I completey wiped my Hard Drive using Government Software to write 1 and 0's.. I installed Winows 7 Ultimate successfully by booting off of my External USB DVD Drive.
3) After sucessfully installing WIndows 7 Ultimate I upgraded my Bios to the latest version.
4) I am able to see my DVD Drive in WIndows 7 at the Operating System Level.
5) This is the problem I can see the External USB DVD DRIVE in Windows 7 Operating System Level. Its in Windows Explorer.. However I am unable to Boot off the DVD Drive. When I reboot the latop and press F12 the External USB DVD Drive is not listed there. This is the Same External USB DVD Drive I used to wipe the Hard Drive Clean and install Windows 7 successfully.. My Bios is set to Legacy..
6) Please Help.. Someonehi Agent0
Thanks for Posting!
Upgrading the BIOS might set off something.
Check under Exit TAB and see if you have OS optimized or OS optimal Settings.
Change it to other OS or Disable.
Save and Exit
Boot into BIOS again.
Check Boot Tab if you have now a Boot mode and Boot Priority.
Set those to Legacy / Legacy first.
Look for Secureboot and disable it.
Save and Exit and try the F12 and see if you can have the ODD drive as an option again.
Regards
Solid Cruver

When I turn off the computer my preferances are forgot. My screen saver aways goes to photos. Ittune always ask if I want to upgrade even after telling it not to . firefox always goes the upgrade page a progam I have to save my clipboard resets itself.
This does appear to be an issue with synergy, but I've also noticed on my C2D Macbook Pro that the screen does not wake from sleep when I simply touch or move around on the touchpad. Now, I have to hit a button (like return) to get the monitor to wake up. Submitting a button strike through synergy does not work, though. Neither does a mouse click on either the trackpad or through synergy.
It also appears that synergy is functioning even though the monitor is off. My mouse does move to the screen and progress across it (I have a three monitor setup with the Mac in the middle, so I can move it off my left system to my Mac, keep moving, and eventually it will show up on the third screen). If synergy weren't working, I would expect it to go from screen 1 to screen 3.
So I think there's something up with how Lion detects that the monitor should be reenabled, and synergy is even more affected by that decision. -
My iMac says my iCloud mail account is off line and is refusing to go online - Ok I rarely use iCloud mail but now the problem has spread to my calendar, which has frozen stating it is connecting to the iCloud server (for the past 8 hours).
Any help would be greatly appreciated by this silver surfer.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

On IMAP email, is there a fix for not being able to save to the SENT or DRAFTS folder?
Dear Support,
Recently I switched from POP to IMAP email. Now the IMAP account does not save Drafts or Sent folders. The POP account is still set up and does save. I love using Thunderbird and have used it for over 10 years. This bug is very annoying to me. Can you please tell me if a fix is in the works? From the chat boards it seems like many users do have the bug.
Thank you,
ChrisWrt the drafts folder, try to use the local one instead of the one on the server.
Problems with copying messages to the Sent folder on the server may be caused by an unreliable Internet connection. I'm afraid there isn't much you can do about this. Have you checked with your email provider? -
want to update to Mavericks but get the message: can't connect to App store. What can I do?
Go to your User Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.

Not being able to connect to itunes store with mobile modem
Hello. I just bought a t-mobile web n walk internet modem. I found that I could not connect to the itunes store using this despite the internet working fine. I was also having no problem connecting to the itunes store when hooked up via airport. I could find no answers posted anywhere on how to fix this. I fixed it by selecting 'view my account' from the 'store' menu and then entering my password and pressing 'done'. After this I could then access the itunes store via my mobile modem as well as airport. Thought I'd post this so that it hopefully helps anyone with the same problem in future. Karma an all...cheers
