best way to repair the hinges might be to buy a non-working unit on ebay and scavenge the hinges.  Local computer repair shop may also be an option

  • My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?

    My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?
    The connections just stopped yesterday. Both laptops work OK when connected by ethernet cables and my main PC running XP64 connected also by ethernet is not affected.
    Both laptops can see my neighbour's wireless network and worked OK with my son-in-laws network last night when I took them over to his house.
    Can I assume that the "wireless component has died?
    Any recommendations for a direct updated replacement?
    I'm currently connected to NTL broadband but may at sometime switch to Sky broadband in the future but I understand that I would not be able to do this with my NTL phone line.

    Thanks for the comments Charrie21,
    SSID Broadcast is enabled,
    Of the 3 leds on the front left:
    WLAN ACT is not illuminated
    WLAN Link is illuminated [According to the instruction because it is connected to a cable modem],
    POWER is illuminated.
    Of the 3 leds on the front right:
    LINK is illuminated,
    ACT is not illuminated,
    Diag in not illuminated.
    The router has been reset  several times.
    SSID has been changed several times
    Channel number has been changed several times
    WAP was previously 64BIt and has been changed to 128Bit
    Firmware version is the same date as currently on the Linksys web sute for this model.
    I am thinking the "wireless" component is dead.

  • Since purchasing my Mac Pro with retina display, I can no longer change the preferences on MP Navigator for Canon MX870. Help?

    Since purchasing my Mac Pro with retina display, I can no longer change the preferences on MP Navigator for Canon MX870. I can change them on my old Mac Pro with Lion, but not the new one. I can scan but I can't save it to a folder on my hard drive. I can only let it default to a back up date folder. Tried all sorts of things to change the preferences and folders, nothing worked. Ideas?

    To prevent your iPhone from automatically syncing when you plug it in, click on iTunes in the menu bar, then preferences, then "devices", then tick "prevent iPhones, iPad's and iPod's from syncing automatically".
    Plug it in, then on the iPhone sync summary screen, click "info" along the top.
    Make sure the "sync contacts" option is not ticked. as long as it's not ticked, then it won't sync with your mac's contacts but will still include them in backups.
    Also, if you use iCloud, make sure that the iPhone/mac are either not signed into the same account, or that "contacts" is not turned on for both of them

  • HT204264 "If you exceed your iCloud storage limit, photos and videos won't upload to iCloud, and your library will no longer stay up to date across your devices."  Really?  Can't we support the existing "last 1k photos will be available in the cloud" mode

    "If you exceed your iCloud storage limit, photos and videos won't upload to iCloud, and your library will no longer stay up to date across your devices."  Really?  Can't we support the existing "last 1k photos will be available in the cloud" model?  If we don't do this, won't this kill auto-sync of new photos from iOS devices to our libraries on our Macs (if the Mac's Photos app has auto syncing with the cloud turned on) once we go over our 5gb limit?  I have 350GB of photos in my Mac Photos library - I am not going to pay $20/month for 1tb iCloud storage.  Please advise, Apple.  Thank you.

    I agree and am baffled by this also.  At first I was really excite about this new feature.  Mostly because I would be able to seamlessly sync videos along with my PhotoStream.  I just assumed there would be some systematic way to handle large libraries.  Like removing older files as the current PhotoStream does.  However, it appears that this new feature will simply 'shut down' when you reach your storage limit.  This just makes no sense to me.  I would have to double check, but I have all my photos and videos in iPhoto and stored on a 3 TB external hard drive and I think the full library is over 1 TB.  So, even if I was willing to pay $20 a month for photo syncing (which I am not) I couldn't do it because my library is too large.  Again I am just baffled why Apple cannot blend this new service with the existing PhotoSteam model.  My favorite aspect of PhotoSteam is that is uploads all my iPad and iPhone Photos to my Mac for permanent storage and it seems this is lost in the new version.

  • TS1702 after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store.

    after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store on my iPhone, i am unable to install new apps. i chose to fill out the security questions and the problem seems to occur since then. what could be a solution to get the app store working again??

    i just contacted apple support and the solution is the following!!!!!
    connect the iphone to your computer  and open itunes
    then click on itunes store at the left side of the screen
    then click at the right top side of your itunes screen on your email address (or id that is displayed there in the black bar)
    choose log out
    then go to the top of the screen with the search option in itunes where you can search in the store and choose an app that you have not yet installed.
    then you get the security questions also in itunes, fill the them out and after you have done that you are asked to log in again
    now when you install an app that works (it is then on your computer still)
    open the app store on your iphone and choose the updates button and install the app from the cloud
    now when you install new apps also from the app store on your iphone it works again!!! and you are no longer asked about the security questions
    (the other option they told me (that i did not have to use)  is: go to settings/general/ all the way at the bottom of the screen choose make new settings restore networksettings and choose yes)

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

  • I can no longer get the column view since installing 12.0.1.26.

    I can no longer get the column view since installing 12.0.1.26. The only thing my iTunes for PC will not display the column view of songs any more  The only thing I have access to is the view that displays the album covers. I used the Help function, followed the procedure several times.  When I click on the music icon, the icon flashes, but does not bring up a menu as shown in the "help" file.

    1) reset the iPad. Hold power home button until screen goes black, apple logo appears-release
    2) delete the app, reinstall.
    3) wait for an update to the app

  • I have purchased an Iphone 4 in Dubai two years ago. The model number is MC319LL. And unfortunately, I attempted to upgrade it online to a newer version 5.0.1(9A405) but right away my sim card was blocked. I can no longer use the telephone.

    Dear Sir:
    Two years ago I have purchased an Iphone 4 here in Carrefour Supermarket, Dubai UAE. The model number is MC319LL. Unfortunately last November 2011, I attempted to upgrade the OS to 5.0.1 but rightaway, my sim card(Etisalat UAE service provider) was blocked. As a result, I can no longer use the telephone function. I just found out recently that this model number .i.e.MC319LL is to be used for AT&T. My question is, how can I restore my unit to work as a celphone? And why is it that when I upgraded it, it was blocked. Was it illegal to sell this phone in the UAE market?
    Thanks a lot.

    You purchased a "hacked" iPhone(hacked to unlock it) from a non-official source for iPhones. Unfortunately, that's the risk you take when you purchase from a non-official source. There is no way to get your phone officially unlocked, & all warranty & support has been voided. Sorry, but you don't have any good choices here. Your best bet is to go back to Carrefour Supermarket & get your money back, then purchase an iPhone from an official source. If they won't give you your money back, have them "fix" your phone...they will have to "hack" it again. Good luck.

  • Problem after updating to iTunes 10.5 on Windows Vista.. I can no longer access the iTunes store..

    Hi
    After updating to iTunes 10.5 on Windows Vista I have found that I can no longer access the iTunes store... I am left with a blank iTunes screen with the loading bar stuck at halfway..
    All other features seem to work... only opening  the iTunes store is failing..
    I have ran the diagnostics feature and this says everything is ok, so I'm a bit stuck
    Please help

    Purple-Gecko...all that I can say is, "Boom!!!"  You are THE man/woman, whichever the case may be.
    The "netsh winsock reset" command worked like a charm for my machine (running Windows XP SP3).  I have had two weeks of frustration with this issue and finally found your post which got me back online with the iTunes store.  My problem accessing the iTunes store began once I downloaded and installed iTunes 10.5 in preparation to upgrade to OS5.  Once 10.5 was installed, I could open iTunes and access everything except the store (which prevented any of my devices from being able to sync). I followed all of the suggestions that I could find in Apple Support and the suggestions that I was emailed from Apple's support techs.  I unistalled all Apple software and reinstalled iTunes multiple times, and still could not access the store. 
    Your suggestion is the only "cure" that I have found.
    I thank you, my iPod thanks you, and my iPhone 4 thanks you for taking the time to post this fix.

  • Can no longer access the iTunes store.

    As of a few days ago I can no longer access the iTunes Store.  Keep getting the page that urges me to upgrade.
    I cannot not upgrade to the current version on my G5 Power PC.  Cannot access by using Search either.  I am running
    iTunes 7.5 because all newer versions required an upgrade of Quicktime which screwed up the performance of Final Cut Studio,
    which I can also not upgrade because I don't own an Intel Mac.  I am so tired of Apple not supporting their loyal customers
    who own older Macs, especially in these hard economic times.  Was considering the purchase of an iPhone, but not anymore. 
    If anyone knows of a work around to the iTunes problem I would appreciate an answer.  It not, then Goodbye Apple it was nice
    knowing you.

    This is what I had to do to access iTunes store with 10.4.11 (took all day for the downloads)
    1. download & install iTunes 9.2.1 (101 MB)
    2. download & install Quicktime 7.5.5 (61 MB)
    3. message 'need to install Safari 4.0.3 or later' (and I never use Safari)
    4. download Safari (26 MB)
    5. Safari won't install without 'latest security update'
    6. download latest security update 2009-005 (Intel) v. 1.0 (172 MB)
    7. take a long walk
    8. install security update and restart
    9. install Safari and restart
    And yes, now I can download music again from the iTunes store.  I would have given up and gone with Amazon.com but mp3 downloads are only available to folk in USA, and I'm in Australia.

  • Updated to 10.4.1 on Itunes and now can no longer access the actual Itunes store ...

    Now i have a bit more space, i can explain what is really properly wrong. The other day i updated my itunes to the 10.4.1 version and now can no longer access the Itunes store - whenever i try to do so i get the bar at the top gets to about half way then stops and nothing happens - on rare occasions however i am taken into a place that resembles the Itunes store but there is no detail and whenever i click on anything, NOTHING happens.
    Now on a SUPER RARE occasion i'll get a notice that the request was timed out?
    If ANYBODY can help me i'll be very grateful

  • After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

    After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

    The problem is with version 10.4.1.  I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work.  The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me.  Here was their list of steps:
    Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
    2.  Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
         a. iTunes
         b. QuickTime
         c. Apple Software Update
         d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
         e. Bonjour
         f.  Apple Appllcation Support
    3.  Reboot PC
    4.  Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
    If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes.  To correct this:
    5.  Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
    6.  Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
    7.  Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
    8.  Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date.  It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
    9.  Reboot PC

  • My scrollbar on the right side turned black, with the update, and I can no longer see the position marker to grab it and move up and down
