Photos tells me it is connecting to Library for shared photos. It's been saying this for about ten hours. I can't stop it from searching or get it to do anything else. I can go back to my photos but I can't get Photos to find the shared items.

Be sure Safari does not have the Block Pop-Up Windows preference set.
Where I work now there are several unencrypted VLANs that require authentication, and Safari promptly pops up a window for me to register every time.

My iPhone 4 froze when I was using the Facebook app. The only thing moving is the indicator at the top spinning to show its "thinking." Its been like this for about an hour, I can't even turn it off. Any ideas (other than letting the battery go dead)?
Thank you, I've tried that but it won't work either, the logo never comes up. It just stays on the FB app screen. I tried connecting to iTunes to see if I can fix something from there and it freezes iTunes. Also tried disconnecting the wifi (I don't know how I thought that would help but worth a try) and plugging it into the charger but still nothing. I think I'll have to visit the store tomorrow. I appreciate it, though!

I've tried to charge it and i've tried to reset it but it won't even connect to iTunes. Please help!
Don't know why it happened, but if you can't enter the passcode, you'll have to restore the phone to remove it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212. If you're running iOS 7 with Find My iPhone enabled, you'll have to force it into recover mode to restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

iPad started acting up, would not open books, screens come up that I never touched etc. so I did a reset, the apple icon showed up and has been on now for about 18 hours I can't even turn it off I plugged in in over night but still screen frozen? Any suggestions?

I imported about 300 RAW images yesterday and worked with them for about an hour. iPhoto locked up on me and I rebooted. After I did the event icon for that event is now gray and it says there are no photos. I know the photos are there. Any idea how I can recover them?
a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card -- I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos
Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

Photos cannot find the system photo library
I’m in trouble. I was deleting photos in ‘pictures’ as I wanted to clean up some space on my iMac. My assumption was that ‘pictures' is completely separate to iPhoto (or photos as it is now called). I then go back into photos (the old iPhoto) and get the message 'photos cannot find the system photo library’.
I cannot access any photos at all. I’m working on a large project this weekend and I have purchased hundreds of photos over the last 6 months which I require for the project. Blood pressure boiling at the moment!

You absolute genius. When I pressed alt and photos it gave me the option to open the ‘old version’ of iPhoto!!
Just so I don’t mess up again. How do I now get the old iPhotos back into photo?
I did try to look on my time capsule but when I viewed the last back up from this morning, there was no photo in the sidebar to even open?
I’m new to the forum. I did call Apple but probably not wise for me to articulate on this forum what they said!
The iPhoto migration to Photos would have been automatic when you upgraded - there is presumably a way to kickstart that again though I'm not certain how as I've not done so.
If you have a Time Capsule that's great.
I'll see if I can get some others to chip in.
Also, if you can still open iPhoto you can of course continue to use that for the time being. -
When I go to plug in my iPhone 5 to my PC it will charge my phone but it doesn't show up that it's connected to my computer or in iTunes. I have tried just about everything that I can find in the support discussions but nothing has worked. Any other suggestions?
If you have carefully follow ALL of the steps in that article, you are using a USB port directly on your computer and not a USB hub (don't use a front port on a tower or desktop either, as they are an internal hub) and you installed iTunes correctly using an Administrator ID and you have tried disabling your antivirus and firewall then there is no hope of it ever working. Look at the tip again, and go through it carefully, not skipping any steps.
Note, BTW, that an iPhone will not show up on a computer, only in iTunes. If there are photos in the Camera Roll then it will appear in Windows as a digital camera only. -
Reverting from AirPort Client Update 2009-002 to anything else.
I never update Airport because it seems every time I do, something goes a miss. Everything was perfect, no issues at all. By mistake, I did update to Airport Update 2009-02.
Now connections randomly drop to AP, can't disable WiFi, when it does reconnect have to force IP renew, then moments later connection drops again.
I want to revert. Yes, I know, there is no way to do that.
I will not accept:
+ Try fussing with my AP (SSID, Security, etc) that's not the problem - the problem is clearly the driver - it worked fine until the dumb update.
+ Try deleting \ adding networks.
+ Archive and Reinstall.
+ TimeMachine restores.
Perhaps there are some files I could extract from the package and replace on my machine?
That's my line of thought.. Any ideas are appreciated, except for the ones excluded above. Thanks

Just extracting the 2009-01 pkg file only has only the IO80211Family.kext file …
If you mean AirPort Client Update 2009-001, it has much more than a single file in it. The installed IO80211Family.kext appears to be a single file, but like many items it is actually a package (a special kind of folder) containing many files.
In Finder, right-click on the installed version in /System/Library/Extensions & choose "Show package contents" to see what I mean. Likewise, you can use Pacifist to fully expand the package contents of the download & see something similar.
Just replacing this file + fixing permissions did not work.
No surprise there -- it is what my "hard way" comment alluded to. To understand why it didn't work, consider first that a package is actually a structured group of related files containing resources designed to work together as a unit. The files often have internal references to one another & other mutual dependencies in their code. Thus, you can't simply substitute one file with another from a different package -- the files won't have fully compatible resources & won't work properly as a unit.
But there is more to it than that. An installer doesn't just replace files. In fact, although the package contents of an installer & the installed package look similar, they are actually quite different. (Comparing the two as suggested above with Pacifist & Finder will show that.) You can think of an installer package as the raw ingredients of the installed package plus the recipe to make it, housekeeping instructions for tidying up beforehand & afterwards, & the resources the process requires to do all of that. (Check the "Resources" tab in Pacifist to show the resource files.)
Often there is even more to it than that. Many OS packages have mutual dependencies on one another, just as their contents do. The "family" name isn't an arbitrary one -- just as with any family there are parents & children in the IO (input/output) extension family. Mixing members of different families leads to conflicts, often ones that interfere with more than the functionality of the 'foreign' member. Apple's software update mechanism & the installers themselves are designed to prevent this mismatch; when you bypass that it is up to you to manually do everything they do if you expect everything to work together without problems.
The root of the problem? The old driver worked, the new one has issues. How much simpler could it be?
As I hope the above makes clear, it isn't as simple as it seems. You can think of the OS as a very complex machine with thousands of precision parts, each of which must be undamaged & compatible with the others. One bad part can cause problems seemingly quite unrelated to its function, making the job of finding & replacing it much less straightforward than you might imagine. And if you don't do that, the damage will spread, especially when you 'overhaul' (update) the machine with new parts but miss the bad one.
That's why you so often see the advice to reinstall the OS. In effect, that replaces the machine with a brand new one with known-good parts, sparing you the usually very tedious task of tracking down & replacing just the original bad part & any others it has damaged.
But you said in the beginning that you don't want to do that. That seriously limits your choices, mostly to those that require substantial knowledge of the OS & its internal interdependencies to achieve success.
In short, it isn't a simple machine. Treating it as if it is won't get the job done. -
When I try to drag a song to my shuffle it says " this song is in iCloud and can't be transfered. Why is it ? I never downloaded anything like iCloud. I just want to be able to move my music where and when I waNT TO. i HAVE BEEN UNTILL i DOWNLOADED NEWEST VERSION OF ItUNES. gET ME OUT OF THIS!!!
thats tough man, yeah exchanging it is the best option. But why do people always leave a message saying" i'll probably just by an ipod" and it's usually followed by, "even though i don't like apple or ipod" . I mean fine, if u feel like giving up on the zen micro thats fine, i personally don't care if you're going to buy an ipod. for god sakes ipod isn't even the next alternati've mp3 players, theres plenty. Are u just trying to get the creative people saying "oh man we lost another one to ipod" cuz i'm sure they don't lose sleep over u wanting to buy an ipod instead of a zen. *done ranting*

As we were instructed I attempted to download the new Adobe Cloud to replace Adobe CS6 as it is about to expire. It had been downloading for about an hour when I lost power due to a storm. It was only off 20 minutes. When it came back up it had stopped because my internet of course was also off. Now I have tried to do it again and it tells me “that number has already been approved and uploaded” However, it has not because I do not have the cloud programs yet. I still have my CS6 but I am not sure what to do from here. Can you assist with this please?
After admittedly only a quick read the one thing you don't say is how you are trying to make this move. Most people with moving library issues do it the wrong way. Plenty of web sites tell you how to do it the wrong way.
If the iTunes application is started before the drive with the library is fully mounted and awake iTunes will revert back to the internal drive. -
Bought lots of music last night. Tried to sync my 5th generation nano.It's been saying something like, "step two, attempting to sync a***'s ipod for about 8 hours. It won't let me stop it. I can't disconnect at this time. Please help.I thought about using control. alt delete and stopping it. It says I will lose any unsaved data. The music appears to be in my library, so I should be safe, right? However even if that works and I can disconnect my ipod, why isn't it syncing? I have a 2nd one to sync as well. I am frustrated. Thank you!
Thanks you for replying planb77! My husband got home and told me to just disconnect the ipod. It had been at least 12 hours by then, The music was in my library but not on my ipod, He had me shut down, unplug my computer, take a rest from it and restart. I reset my ipod following instructions on the itunes site. I tried syncing again and was successful syncing both ipods. I really think it was great of you to take the time to help someone else.

Can someone verify the following regarding Find My Phone:
I assume the lost device (iPhone) and the device (ipad) one uses to find the lost item must have identical Apple IDs , PWs as well as identical iCloud identification?Back now. Are you saying that you entered you iCloud ID and password in the Find My iPhone app (see photo below), and it said you don't have an iCloud account? Are you sure this is the ID for your iCloud account (check Settings>iCloud next to Account at the top on the device you are trying to track)?
Also, did you try using this ID and password on icloud.com on your computer to try to track it, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442? Did that work? -
if i bought my ipod touch 32gb in germany where the voltage is 220v and i live in America where the voltage is 110, i will have to wait to get to my home to charge it for first time or I can charge it here and change the voltage of the battery in America?
please i need help, im worried that if I connect my ipod here, it will burn or sometihng bad.Just connect it to a computer's USB port.
Most wall chargers are dual voltage (110- 220 volts) and only require a plug adopter. Check the wall charger to see if yours is. -
I am backing up my computer to an external hard drive using Time Machine. It has been at 288.91 "used" for a while... should I just let it ride? It's been going for about 7 hours now
It does not immediately delete the files that are missing.. it merely tries to backup the new files it has discovered on the external drive. Since you moved the files there, the backup at least for a while will contain both copies.. and that is why it doesn't have enough space to backup.
Fixing the problem.. hmm pondini is the expert.. you should be able to delete the backup of the photos in existing backup.. there are instructions to do it.. but it is a very poor way to do things.
Much better. .archive off the existing backup.. this is long and slow but worth it. you need a usb drive of the same size as the TC drive. Then erase the TC and start a fresh set of backups.
The alternative is to use the USB drive as a new target.. but it is much slower than the TC internal drive.
