  • When I try to log on to Facebook, My iPad will not recognize my password, and I get an error code 190. What is it and why do I get it?

    When I try to log onto Facebook, my iPad will not recognize my password, and I get an error code 190, but I can log on on my HP desktop. What is code 190, and why do I get it?

    I was using the FB app that came with the iPad. What I eventually did was.
    1. Held down both home key and on-off button until iPad shut down, then rebooted.
    2. Uninstalled FB app.
    3. Went to App Store and re-installed FB app.
    The iPad had numerous problems. My son saw my plea on FB as I was accessing it through my HP computer, and he walked me through it. While he was at it, he taught me how to disconnect auto-correct. I am not certain that I want to keep that off, but everything is working the way it is supposed to  the way it was in the beginning. 
    I am curious, though, as to what ears to the problem in the first place. After checking various sites, it seems that a code 190 has to do with windows not Apple.
    But thank you for the response.

  • HT4061 I bought my mom an iPad for Christmas this year.  We can't use it as it will not recognize her passwords.  How do I reset it without using passwords.  I want this thing wiped clean, just like it came from the store so that I might start over.

  • My hard drive thinks it is the Ma OS X Install disc and will not erase. How might I start this repair over?

    I'm not the sharpest crayon, and was getting frustrated by the fact that erasing my hard drive and reinstalling Snow Leopard and my applications would not get my computer to start up without the Mac OS X Install disc inserted. In the course of that, in Disk Utility, since none of the options were working and my computer would not recognize my backup drive, I ended up copying the Install disc as the source onto my one partition on my hard drive. Now, the computer starts up, but goes directly to the install proceedure. However, there is no drive to select to install Mac OS X to. Disk Utility won't allow for the option to erase the drive again. How do I make my computer usable again?

    Can't do that. The intallation steps reach the point where you have to choose the disc to install to. There is no disc to choose on the screen. The space is empty. I cannot select anything to erase and install to.

  • Since I installed the last Mavericks update, my MacBook Pro will not recognize my Nook ebook reader

    Since I installed the last Mavericks update, OS 10.9.2, my MacBook Pro will not recognize my Nook ebook reader.  Maybe it's a coincidence; maybe not.  Any ideas?

    Check the Barnes & Noble or Nook websites to see if there are any Nook driver or software updates for OS X Mavericks.

  • TS1363 When I plug my ipod into the usb port of my desktop, It will not recognize that anything is plugged into it.  However it does recognize my flash drives, so trying to resolve my problem.  Please help...

    When I plug my ipod into my desk top my computer will not recognize the ipod in the usb port.  I checked my usb port with one of my flash drives and it works fine.  My ipod is in stuck in recovery mode, so has to be gone thru on itunes.  Please help me

    Yes, I think so...  But what's odd here (to me) is that it actually matters what song the iPod was playing before being connected to that USB port.  What happens if you connect the iPod when it is not playing any song?  It seem like either the car audio system knows where to look for the iPod's song files, or it doesn't. 
    If you have a USB flash drive, try putting a few song files on it, and connecting it to that USB port.  That's probably the primary reason for that USB port, so customer can attach USB flash drives with song files.  If that works, and you can properly browse and play songs from the USB flash drive, you should just get a $5 8GB USB flash drive, fill it with your "car songs," and leaving it connected to the car audio system.  That would be more convenient that remembering to connect and disconnect your nano all the time, and less wear-and-tear on the nano.

  • How can I install LR -5 if it will not recognize my password?

    I have new iMAC, Adobe staff helped me to install LR 5, which I used in my PC, but installation won't recognize any password (not my computer, not my email, not my Adobe)

    Hi Ellen928,
    When you install any program on MAC, it generally requires your MAC password to continue with the installation.
    Please try to use your iMAC password when asked. If that does not work then I would request you to paste the screen shot of the window which asks for the password.
    Regards,
    Anand

  • How do you sync a phone if the original computer crashed and other computers will not recognize it?

    I have a 3gs and the computer that I originaly synced it on crashed and when I try to sync with another computer, it will not let me. any suggestions? Can I sync the phone on my wifes computer, she has her i 4 synced to it?

    Did you manage to resolve this issue?
    I called Apple Care, tried various things that did not work, then completely reset my iPhone 5 and restored from a recent backup. That worked for a day or so, then the definct "other" number was again offered when I started typing the name of a contact whom I wanted to text.

  • HT1338 Why does the iPhoto that came installed on my iMac not update with Software Update?

    I have iPhoto v9.1.5 that came pre-installed on my iMac. However, although there have been newer versions available on the App Store (currently up to v9.2.3) there have never been any updates available in "Software Update".
    Weirder still, when I go to the App Store, iPhoto is one of the apps showing as available to update. But when I click to update, the App Store sometimes tells me I "must log-in with the account used to purchase the application", and sometimes that "only apps purchased from the App Store can be updated". I've tried both the accounts I have with the App Store, but same result each time.
    I had a very disappointing experience with Apple Customer Support, speaking to several people in different departments - none of whom could explain why I couldn't update iPhoto, nor offering any kind of fix. Not what you expect from Apple!
    Does anyone have any clue how I can fix this? v9.1.5 ***** on so many levels - but then maybe v9.2.3 is just as bad and I should just trash it and use something else anyway..... Any advice will be considered!

    I've since found other posts on this issue (like https://discussions.apple.com/message/16434345#16434345), so at least I'm not the only one. Seems that Apple are being incredibly slow to resolve this. The only solution I've read is to get my hands on an iLife installation disc - and amazingly, none of the techs on the phone (I've spoken to several) have come up with this solution!
    But is there any other way?

  • HT4623 IOS 6 updates are installed. Phone will not recognize my old password, nor will it accept the new password. New password was said to be updated. what to do?

    Need help to have Iphone recognize my new password.  I have just changed it and it was accepted via the computer but the phone continues to say password is not valid.

    If Settings>iCloud is showing your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Why does the family locator sesson timed out and will not let you log back in for 24 hours?

    Sometimes when I log into family locator it says session timed out and signs you out?  Than it makes you wait 24 hours or longer to log back in.

        angery, Let's get your Family Locator sessions working properly! When this happens, have you tried closing and reopening your web browser? Are you signed into the Family Locator site as the Account Owner or Account Manager? The Family Locator app is also available on select mobile devices. Open the app store (e.g., Google Play , App Store , etc.) on your device and search for Verizon Family Locator. If the app appears in the search results, your device is compatible and you can download the app. This may be a great alternative to the Web Site. Please let us know which if you need further assistant.

  • My 2nd Gen iPod touch would not finish backing up to update to 4.2 firmware. So I tried to restore it, and it failed to restore. It shows the "Connect to iTunes" logo and iTunes will not recognize it. How can I get iTunes to recognize it?

    Please help.

    Think I got it figured out... I missed the whole "sync apps" when my iPod was connected to my computer (in iTunes)
