Replacement iTouch e-mail loading unreliable. Followed all troubleshooting instructions. Any ideas?
Hi folks,
Got a replacement iTouch for a two-year old that had an unrelated hardware issue. 3rd generation I believe. Version is 4.3.5. Everything from old one reloaded fine, but have found that the e-mail sometimes loads, sometimes doesn't. When it doesn't, it either perpetually searches for new mail, or sometimes gives the following message:
The mail server ''imap.gmail.com'' is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings.
Could not find anything online that directly addresses this message. Went through all of Apple's instructions (reloading account, ensuring IMAP is enabled, etc) with no success. Safari connection is unaffected.
Everything was hunky-dory with the previous one for e-mail. What's the deal with my new iTouch? Your time is appreciated.
Cheers,
M
You can try deleting the mail account from the iPod and recreating it. However, I suspect there is a problem with your network or Gmail.

I've followed all the instructions to the letter but still can't access the signatures in my Mail account. Any ideas?
Hello,
In Mail Preferences>Signatures, what shows for All Sigs, And the ones assigned to a particular account?
Then in Compose a new Mail, what shows for Sig choices? -
My phone randomly shut off. When I turned it back on it said it needed to restore, to plug it into itunes. When I did, and tried to restore it, it failed with a code 21. I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all that the steps told me to, I've updated everything in my computer. I don't know what else to do. My phone will just show the apple sign and the itunes plug in sign.

My Ipod has an error code of 1604 when trying to restore. I have followed all recommended instructions...any ideas.??
If you did all of this
Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My Xtreamer media player won't read srt sub files downloaded from my iMac and stored in a 1Tb seagate external disk. However, the Xtreamer Elvira media player will read all the .avi files I have loaded in the external disk. Any ideas?
I am experiencing the same issue with a new external DVD burner, a Sony DRX-840U. When I load a CD into this external drive it appears in iTunes but when you go to import or play the CD iTunes indicates playing or importing for each individual track for just a moment. The end result is that nothing is ever imported or played. I am experiencing this on two different systems. One a notebook running Win2K and the other a desktop running XPpro. If I use the internal DVD drives on either of these systems everything work just fine. Yet I am able to use this new external DVD drive with every other application. For example Window Media Player has no problem playing or importing the same CD that iTunes fails on. The last person indicated that if one set the DVD drive in question to be the drive of choice under preferences>advanced>burning that all was ok. I my case this Sony external drive is the drive listed as the drive of choice for burning yet the issue still exists.
As this appears to be an issue that others are also experiencing help from Apple Tech Support would be greatly appreciated. -

I have followed all the instructions for uninstalling all the componets of Itunes in order to reinstall Itunes but I am still unable to download Itunes installer or setup. How do I fix this issue?
I couldn't download from the normal download link provided (http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/), but I searched the internet and found this link from apple support that worked for me to download iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows (64-bit): http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1615

I guess in October of 2013, Dropbox changed their program so you don't need a public folder to place your files in. I followed the instructions on numerous youtube and google result sites on how to do this. I thought I followed all the instructions but it still doesn't work. I downloaded Dropbox and configured it as instructed. I created a domain at .tk and when I put the URL in my browser, I see that .tk does go to my dropbox index html but it is a blank screen. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I would ask this to dropbox it could be they have blocked the option to avoid being used as free web hotels

Though the font on the desktop and email programs is fine (14 or 16 point), on the google sedarch pages or any websites that are accessed via Firefox, it is tiny. What's wrong? How can I make things more legible? I am working on a laptop and followed all the instructions given in DISPLAY.
Thanks for any advice.You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

I downloaded a ringtone from itunes (an apple company) to my iphone4 (an Apple product). Followed all the instructions from "Help" boards, sent to itunes on my pc converted to m4r synced back to iphone and still got squat. I thought iphones and apple were supposed to be so user friendly? Any other phone you download a ringtone click on it "use as ringtone" and your done.
Frank, thanks for your note. I wrote "COMPLETED" because I had gone to a lot of effort to get the content of the book precisely as I wanted it. I would fully expect to see my level of effort and care matched by functional competence in Aperture 3 to render the book the way I created it. Too much to ask?
And yes, I upgraded the Aperture 2 Library first. [Not ALL my tens of 000s of pix, because I use Lightroom selectively for photo editing. But Yes to the Aperture 2 Library.] That step took a number of minutes, but seemed to work fine (no error messages of any kind).
Then I opened the existing book project in Aperture 3, which followed some "magic-box" process that took a minute or so. As I said, when that step was done, by all appearances the book was ready to submit for printing - until I examined the photos a little more closely. You did see the blurry example I included, didn't you? That is what each and every photo looks like.
Text-box content appears to have been rendered pertectly, for the record (including captions).
So, ... is this result something you have heard of before? Do you know of a one-step solution? Or am I looking at an extended picture-by-picture fix? -
can't reset my apple id security question. I follow all the instructions and still I can't reset it. All I get is this We’re sorry. The system is unavailable. Please try again
If you are trying the reset link to your rescue email account and it's not working (Apple may have been doing maintenenace) then have you tried clearing your browser's history and cache and/or trying a different browser ?
If that doesn't work either then you can try contacting iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 -
I have just downloaded an app to my computer through itunes. It shows up as downloaded to my ipad, which I don't have. I want it on my computer. I follow all the instructions and always come to a deadend. Help! Thanks!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
Why do you want it on your computer, apps won't run on a computer.
