Options above number key have swapped and no longer do what they should!
hi, possibly silly question, but my the exclamation point, at sign, number sign etc. that sit above the number keys have somehow defaulted to showing different things. eg. the at sign now shows a ™ and the number sign now shows a £. i'm not sure how i turned this on, or how (more importantly) i turn it off again. any help would be much appreciated!! thanks.
Sounds like you set a different keyboard layout for United Kingdom. System Preferences>International>Formats. Change the Region to United States.

I have just purchased a new apple cordless keyboard. The numeric line of keys along the top are not functioning as they should. For example I am unable to get a question mark or a forward slash. I have tried holding down both shift and alt keys.
Thanks for prompt response - I tried what you suggested but I'm afraid it has not helped. It seems as though the line of number keys along the top aren't actually doing what is printed on them. Some are OK, but the further towards the right hand side of the keyboard you go, the less predicatable it becomes. So whilst the second key from the left gives me 1 and ! when holding the shift key, by the time I get to the 6 when I press and hold shift I get ^ rather than & symbol which is what is actually printed on the key. The & symbol is actually on the next key along - and when I hit the key with 8 I get * rather than the ( which is printed on they key but actually located on the next key along. Things get even more muddled by the time I am over on the right hand side as rather than a question mark (I have had to type the word as I cannot find the symbol anywhere!) I get this _ and the other symbol marked on the key is a comma, but I get - instead. It is going to drive me mad if every time I want to type something it is a guessing game....! What do you suggest - question mark

I have a 2 yr old Iphone 4 and have not backed up or connected to Itunes up for 1 yr. I have new Windows 7 computer and want to connect and copy Itunes backed up folder from external HD (a year ago) to new computer and install new Itunes and new IOS. What steps should I take and what precautions? I don't want to lose any data on my phone such as music, photos, contacts, notes, texts etc, nor lose music from prior backed up Itune folder. Apps should be OK from app store? Thanks for any help.

My credit card was charged about $100 for 8 different transactions. Five amounts were $9.90. These dates are Aug 6, 7, 28 and 29. I have not ordered anything and don't know what they are for. Please help me. Linda Feddersen

I am trying to use "screenr" and it keeps telling me it cannot detect Java even though I have downloaded and updated Java? What is going on or what might I do to correct this?
ThanksFirefox needs 32-bit plugins, so you'll need to install 32-bit Java for Firefox.
No, you can't change Firefox from 32-bt to 64-bit. There is a Nightly 64-bit version (alpha) of Firefox, but it is used only to test for regressions until development is resumed. -

does 6210 navigator have 3G and wifi?? what is the maximum external memory supported??
yes it does. A-GPS is recommended to be used which requires connection to your provider's network and will incur data costs. a suggesion i would have is to maybe purchase N78 instead? it is almost similar in functionality and also has Wi-Fi and FM transmitter, and their GPS functionality are identical. would probably be cheaper as well.
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post! -

When i watch youtube videos my screen goes blury and i cant see what they are doing. Any solutions?
Does any one know a suloution?
Sounds a bit like a hardware problem, faulty RAM in particular. Run the Hardware Test (see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303605) which is either on a separate CD/DVD or on the install disk 1:
- Make sure that no peripheral devices (printer, keyboard, mouse,...) are attached to the computer.
- Insert the disk and reboot while holding down the "D"-key on the Macbook's keyboard.
- Run the tests (also try the extended one if the other doesn't find any errors)
If the test finds an error report back to Apple with the error number. If the computer is still under warranty, they should organize a repair.
Hope that helps

I tried to reset my iPhone (3gs) with deleting all data. When it power off and automatically again on then it is showing Apple logo only. Not restore and startup my phone. iPhone alerming low charge and I tried to charge and not charging.
What I should do now?Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new". -

If y forgot your security questions/answers then:
From a Kappy post
The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

My iPod will not charge at all it will when it's off it will power on and charge to a certain pint then will stop and no longer charge what is its problem I've tried 3 cords and three different outlets and also in my computer! What is wrong with it?it won't charge when it's powered on only when it s off then it turns on and stops charging?? What's wrong with it ad how much is a Genius Bar appt at apple stores??
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I'm making a slideshow with Lightroom 5. I'm using a 2014 Macbook Pro. Everything works except when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are smaller than what they should be. But the preview is showing the correct photo size. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks!
Hey ronfya
Did you ever get any feedback on this? I haven't read the Technicolor link yet. I was just trying to figure out why my stuff comes out darker on Vimeo. Could this be because FCPX is displaying it to brightly?

I Used to have all my photos in my iPad and iPhone long time ago and then I bought a new iPad last year but I never get my previous photos again what can I do please help me
Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days and your iCloud back only remains on iCloud for 180 days. If you're looking for photos from last year I'm afraid they wouldn't be in iCloud at this point. Unless you have another backup on your computer or they are still on one of your other devices they're gone now.
