Unfortunately, I have tried signing into Itunes for the past hour and keep getting this message: 'We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the itunes store at the time. Please try again later.' I'm using a thinkpad laptop T430. Please help!
I have got the same problem. I am using windows 8.1, latest version of iTunes, Symantec NIS. My internet connection is working.
My apple Id and my password are correct since they work on my iPad and on my iPhone.
message is "ware sorry.we cannot complete your request on the itunes store at this time." And in smaller letters : "try again later". Which i did many times over several days. Just does not work.
any idea anybody ? -
I'm new to the iCloud and Mac in general. After experiencing a hard drive that went out of the blue, I lost everything. I wanted to use the icloud to back my documents up. I went into the iCloud under settings but it only shows my iPhone and daughter's iPod. How do I get my Mac to back up too? Is there something I need to use to have the documents back up?
You cannot back up your Mac to iCloud. Even backing the whole thing up to another online service would be dubious because it would take a very long time. You should buy an external hard disk and back up to that - even better, buy two and use one to make a Time Machine backup and the other to clone your Mac from time to time, thus giving you a backup from which you can boot in an emergency.
If you wanted to back up a suitably sized selection of data to an online service there are a number of third-party methods available, some of which are examined here:

Out of the blue my iPhone 4S home button and notification centre has stopped working.
Out of the blue my iPhone 4S home button and notification centre has stopped working. I used the phone and switched it off. The next time I turned it on they weren’t working. The phone wasn’t dropped on banged around. – Any Ideas, Anyone??
Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW. Have ALL of these steps been tried?
If you've been through ALL these steps and still have problems, you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation. -

for five days bought ipione 4s and out of the blue loses the signal on the network and makes it very regularly, I have upgraded to version 5.0.1 if you can help me.
I had the previous model and forced to buy 4s to catch a better signal, the network I have is cosmote and where it is full house is important, I want your helpHi ChrisBell,
my Pixi shows me the missed calls in a list of its own? I don't have many, so maybe I'm missing something. But I agree with your half-ranting to some degree. As a long-time Palm-user (my last phone was a Treo 680, terrible form factor, good UI), I am really disappointed with the standard software on this phone. Memos and Tasks, which AFAIK were there and useful even on the first Newton's, have regressed beyond the point of usefulness now (solution: Toodledo and Done!, at least for now).
But ChrisBell: if you feel up for it, you could start tinkering. Many people love these phones so much they have started developing patches to solve the obvious problems skimmed over by developers. Try looking up "webosquickinstall" and "preware", and you will find over 300 patches and a lot of free software to help you out. I am not a computer wizard myself, but I am not scared of them either, and I have been able to make good use of all these extras made available by the community.
just a thought, might help you out on a few of your half-rants -
Out of the blue, all of my purchased ringtones and music aren't displayed anymore on my iPhone.
I went to iTunes to see if they were stored there, but the downloads folder also appears to be empty. If I try to select a ringtone I've downloaded before, a popup appears saying that I've already purchased that item and asking if I want to cancel or buy. If I click on buy, then I pay for the item again even if I already have it! The only place I can still see my purchased items is in the iTunes application on my computer, but even though I've already selected sync, the ringtones and songs still won't appear on my iPhone.
What happeneded and how can I get them back without having to pay for them all over again?
Thank you!I'm having the same problem on an iphone 4s running iOS8; when i updated to iOS8, all my ringtones went missing, and when i got a £50 gift card for christmas (2014), I purchased some songs from the iTunes store on my iPhone. i downloaded songs from paramore, panic! at the disco, coldplay, and imagine dragons, over wi-fi, and they went into my iphone music library; but when i re-opened the music app a few days later, in a place where i had no wi-fi, except for my 3G phone signal, some cloud icons appeared next to my newly purchased songs, telling me to re-download them from the cloud, when i haven't even deleted them. this has happened twice now, and i had to use up some of my 5GB data allowance to redownload them from the cloud. This is annoying and i need to fix this issue ASAP.

Out of the blue today, my gmail will not send. I recently upgraded to Mavericks. But I have not had problems until today. I can receive mail but not send. Any easy suggestions of what to do?
I have been having the exact same problem for weeks now with gmail. None of my computers will send Gmail (they will recieve) and my Maverick computers (10.9.1) show gmail smtp.gmail.com as "offline". I had installed Post Box and apple support thought it was that i had too many accounts (I have 2 ipads, an iphone (latest iOs), a work and home iMac and a powerbook). I disabled all my gmail accounts in Mail and still no go from PostBox either . I tried connection doctor and it just spins for outgoing and say I either haveve the wrong pw or login - I dont. I terminaled and tested port 465 (according to gmail instructions) and it works (port 25 did not). I can access gmail from the webmail and send/recieve mail from it and it shows up in my webmail outbox. It is configured for imap.I just cannot send mail at all from any gmail account from any apple device using Mail (or PostBox). I am at a loss as was the apple support person who wished me good luck very politely and sympathetically.

New BT Vision Box delivered out of the blue
I have had a brand new black BT Vision Box delivered this morning out of the blue(I currently have on of the old silver boxes). The letter indicated that they were issueing everyone with a new box due to features being rolled out and that the silver box will stop working in 28 days. I have an almost full hard drive of programs and films and there is no way of transfering the data accross. They advise us to watch everything before sending the box back in a prepaid envelope.
As I don't want anything new to be recorded on the old box can I set up my new black box and still watch the recordings on the old box?
Solved!

Yes you can, but what you would need to do is -
leave the silver box plugged in to the mains and connected to the hub via the ethernet cable
then remove the ethernet cable from the silver box and connect this cable to the black box
switch the black box on and allow it to boot up
The silver box will then run and allow you to watch your recorded content
(putting the silver box in to standby is fine, but don't unplug the mains supply)

Hi All.
In iPhoto I have lost the double click that opensup photos, the double click now appears as a ! in a triangle. At the same time I have lost the print facility in iPhoto. This happened out of the blue and I have been unable to reconcile either problem. Can anyone help please.
BillThe ! means that iPhoto has lost connection to the origianl file.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -

When I type my email address in the "To:" field, a random name comes up next to it as "Holidays in United States". This just started happening out of the blue and I have no idea why. Does anyone else have any idea?
Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app. I am certain other applications also need this information. Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information. Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

PB-12 HD died out of the blue!
Has anyone had their HD die on them Out of the blue?
My laptop was working fine one minute, and when I went back to it a few minutes later, it was frozen. I tried to start it from the Power Button and it would not start again. The daisy wheel just spun and spun.
I Talked to a Apple tech and he informed me that the HD looked as if it were the problem. I took it to an Apple partner store and now have been waiting for over 2 weeks for a new HD.
The worse part was that I wanted to do a routine back up of my Home folder, but waited a day as it was my sons birthday! Now I have lost all my Notes, documents etc... Everything. Luckily there were no photos or music on the laptop, they're all on the PowerMac.
I was wondering if I was the only one who has had this happen to them?Hi Six,
I have never had this happen personally (knock wood), but as a service tech I have seen it happen. Hardware can fail with no warning, and there can be a number of reasons why. I am sorry that it happened so suddenly to you, but rest assured you are not alone out there. I hope your new hard drive gives you many years of reliable service!
