PROBLEM:
1) after creating a book, clicking on the "Buy Book" button does absolutely nothing.
2) after selecting a photo, I can't choose "order prints" from the "share" menu as it is grayed out.
I finally took my computer to a genius bar at an Apple Store. My problem is solved. Here is what happened:
The genius tried several things:
• running Disk Utility (verifying disk permissions & verifying the disk),
• making a guest account to see if same error still occurs (it did),
• checking for software updates, &
• having various internet browsers (i.e.: Safari rather than Firefox) set as the default.
None of these fixed the problem.
He also searched online for a remedy and discussed the problem with at least one other mac genius.
Next he used the Console utility and looked at some log (I am not certain on the specifics here). He said he could see some past mentions of iPhoto in it. He did not explain, but he seemed interested in what he found using Console.
He had booted from his own external hard drive to run Disk Utility. This external hard drive also happened to have the iPhoto software on it. So he ran iPhoto, using my computer but using the external hard drive for the start up disk, using the software from the external drive…. NO PROBLEM (i.e.: the “order print” button was NOT grey when he selected a photo; we did not go through the trouble of creating a book to try to order).
He found mention, on the Apple discussion board, that a genius had fixed said problem by replacing the iPhoto software (i.e.: reloading the software). I too recall reading this several months ago somewhere, but I can’t find it now.
So he renamed my application “iPhoto Old” and copied the iPhoto application from his external drive to my hard drive. Now my problems are solved. I deleted the “iPhoto old” application file. Both applications (the iPhoto I had on my computer & the iPhoto he had on his external drive) were ver 6.0.5.
I discussed with him about how to tell others (you) how to solve this problem. He said it is not simple to reload iPhoto because iLife does not let you re-install just iPhoto. Also, he mentioned something about fooling the computer into knowing what version you have and that Software Update would have problems. I wish I knew more. He made it sound like you should take it to a Genius Bar until Apple makes it possible to re-install just iPhoto software.
I hope this info is helpful to end-users and Mac Geniuses out there. I wish I had my problem fixed months ago so that I would have been able to order photo books for holiday gifts. ☹

Just got an iPad. Have created an Apple ID but can't log into the apps store. Press sign in and nothing happens. Any advice?
Have you just created the Apple ID? If so it's possible you may need to activate it after receiving an email? Have you checked for an activation email? I can't be sure if it does send one or not as did mine ages ago.
You may also find this useful if you continue to have problems: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

i am trying to download icarly episodes and it does not go any further than clicking on buy season button. nothing happens when i click the button?
I would first try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. -
I have in my ipad icloud backup window open and I can't close and I can't do anything I tried to press OK and nothing happen is freezing
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have a Mac Pro using OSX 10.7.4. When using apple mail I click on the address icon to obtain email address and nothing happens. I've restarted both the application and the Mac but still won't open address book. Any ideas please.
Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
Are you using iCloud?
For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account. -
I just updated my iPhone 6 to IOS 8.3. My safari will not let me search anything. If I type in a website URL, the Go button is greyed out. If I type in something to search on google, I press Go and nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I have cleared history, reset my phone, tried using wifi and mobile data.I have this problem too and have tried all suggestions to fix, with no luck.
Safari did work for a short time by switching to Private, but stopped working soon after -

My ipad has the message-This ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi-fi. I press ok and nothing happens. I have it locked, plugged into wall, and conected to wi-fi. How do I get it past ok?
Go to Settings, iCloud, and then Storage and Backup. You will then see a button to backup your iPad. It may be that you have much stuff (i.e. photos, apps) for it to do a full backup but you will be able to tell what the estimated backup should be and what it will consist of so that you can choose to prune down items. If you don't want to backup and get rid of the messages you can just turn backup off from this area as well.

My ipod touch 5th gen. 16gb ios 8.1.2 wont turn on, i press the power button and nothing happens, and my home button doesnt work, PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Search does not work. Put something in search, press search and nothing happens
"Search" in the middle of the page does not seem to work. I put something in there, press search and nothing happens. I have to go to the top right hand corner (Google) and put it in there and then it takes me to where i want to go. Once there if i want to use search it works once it has taken me to a web site. How can i fix this?
Hello Albert,
the web dynpro applications for internal and external candidated existed with eRec 6.0 SP 7 (or 9 depending if we count delivered or working ) so the were available before SES and are working with the old TREX setup as long as the SES business function is not activated.
As a general issue you could check IMG node "Assign Search Template Groups to Search Applications". The web dynpro applications use new CompIds (the ones with capital letters). Check if the Ids are existing (you might need to compare with client 000) and if the Search Mask Group Ids assigned are correct.
Furthermore check the application log (SLG1). If there is some configuration issue in the search masks a log entry should be written. If you need assistance with the log entry, just post it here and we will see if we can help.
Kind Regards

I have finished a book in Aperture 3. When I press" buy book' a text comes up " empty text field detected in book" I have been through the book many times and can't find it. Can I over ride it? At this stage the book wants me to cancel
I have been through the book many times and can't find it. Can I over ride it? At this stage the book wants me to cancel
Sure, you can override the warning and press "Continue" instead.
But you said "you have been through the book many times" - have you checked the pages in Aperture's book view or have you checked the preview of the book? I'd look at least at at the "Preview" of the Book - after pressing "Continue" you will see the "Preview" button when the next panel is shown. Look carefully at the preview of the book, if any text is missing.
If you are sure that you like what you see in the preview and no empty textfields show, you can proceed to buy the book.

I too had this problem after I redeemed two $50 gift cards. I solved the problem by uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it. Give it a try.
