So I live in utah and my iPad is sitting on top of my piano but, find my iPhone says that it is in minianapolis. Is there something wrong with my iPad?
I Went to use find my iPhone on my iPad last night To find my phone And on the map it said my iPad that I was using was in minianapolis. I live in utah and I am definitely not in minianapolis And neither is my iPad. Is there a problem with my iPad? Also, I am having trouble searching anything on the internet. I have a full signal but, it takes so long for it to load anything that it comes up with a message that the server timed out and to try again. I'm not sure what to do. I have tried turning my iPad off and back on. I have tried closing all apps, I have deleted some of my apps and all my emails to free up some of the memory. Any other suggestion would be appreciated. thanks
Wifi-only iPads rely on getting their location from the router that they are connected to being in Apple's database (and being correct in that database) - only cellular iPads have a built-in GPS chip.
For Safari (are other apps that access the internet ok ?), see if the following help
- clear Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
- close Safari via the iPad's taskbar : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Safari app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
- soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My New ipad3, when i click onthe camera app, the front camera works but the other camera only shows a black screen ! Is there something wrong with my iPad ?
Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

MMy iPad mini keeps freezing up on me. Is there something wrong with the iPad? It freez a lot when I'm playing the big fish casino game. What can be done to fix this?
Hello there Lsu70,
If your app is rendering the iPad unresponsive, I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in this article to help get that resolved, named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
Start with these steps, but there are additional things to do if these do not resolve the issue:
Follow the steps below and test the app after each step.Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

my wifi suddenly wont work on my i4s. i already reset network, forget network, restart, and put it in the refrigerator (coz some people said maybe theres something wrong with the heat of wifi inside ). what should i do?
but sometimes, it can read,but wont connect.
sometimes it even wont read the wifi .
sometimes, when it can connect, the password already correct, but it didnt want to connect.
it suddenly happened, without i changed the seeetinggs or else.
i read every solutiuon on google., etc2, and tried the way, but it still wont work.
anyone can help ? pleasee ;(This is a totally absurd suggestion, except that it worked for me with my iPad. Forget the network, then when asked for the password, enter a wrong one. Try again and enter the correct password. Good luck.

There is always a blue screen appears after the Apple logo during the booting process. And then everything is back to normal. What is this thing? Is there something wrong with my screen or something?
Nah - that's just the normal boot process.

My ipod is cracked and it chipped away a little more last night and that's when my wifi stopped working. My wifi works on every other device in my house except for my ipod. Is there something wrong with my ipod?
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Try right next to the router
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Could it be this?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

I am trying to download Tap Tap Revenge on my new Ipad air..however..i searched for it in the App Store but there are none...help please..i really love this game! Is there something wrong with my App Store or my ipad??
It looks like the app is not currently in the App Store, I can't find it in the UK nor US stores.
If you had previously downloaded it then do you have a copy on your computer's iTunes so that you can sync it to your iPad ? -
Is there something wrong with Quicktime and TIFFs?
I've been trying to see with Firefox the TIFF images of patents at the USPTO site and I can't. The browser advises me to install the missing plug-in although Quicktime is already installed. I wonder if it's a Quicktime problem or a Firefox one. I have a reason to believe there's something wrong with Quicktime though. Read on to see why.
On my system the *TIFF Image Test* (from mozdev.org) fails although I have the latest Quicktime plug-in. This happens regardless of the browser I use, all latest editions: Firefox 3.6, Internet Explorer 8 (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions) and Chrome 4. All seem to fail to recognize the presence of the installed Quicktime although my Windows OS is set to open TIF/TIFF files with Quicktime/PictureViewer.
Running about:plugins on my Firefox does show the Quicktime plug-in for a variety of files but NOT for opening embedded TIF/TIFFs. Also, when I open *Tools -> Options -> Applications* I see there is no registered handler for TIF/TIFFs. They don't appear on the known Content Types.
Is there something wrong with the installation of Quicktime? I can see USPTO TIFF images only with Safari which appears to have an integrated TIFF viewer. I haven't tried to install alternatiff or any other alternative TIFF handler.DocBAZ,
I tried to visit the "test site" above. I'm not really sure it's an embedded image on a HTML page because I get a Firefox download window and a suggestion to open it with PictureViewer, which is the expected behavior for downloadable images. The mozdev.org test page on the other hand had an embedded image that needed the plugin, which is what is bugging me.
If you want a real complex test page with both an embedded TIFF and a downloadable one check AlternaTIFF here: http://www.alternatiff.com/testpage.html
Indeed the changes I made were in the QuickTime preferences, not PictureViewer which has no settings to change. And yes, Windows 7 has a unique place to deal with file types and MIME settings.
You will find some interesting suggestions over the problem at SuperUser.

rMBP: Sometimes, after having been shut down, i have to press the power button several times before the machine starts up. It's 3 weeks old, and this has happened 2 times now. Is there something wrong with my rMBP?
Did you purchase the Mac new?
You have 14 calendar days from the time your items are delivered to initiate a return as noted here.
Even though you are past the 14 day limit, if it were me, I'd take the Mac back and explain what's going on. Your Mac should work out of the box.

If so, remove and see if it helps. -
Theres something wrong with my ipad lock and keypad click sound
If i turn my ipad off, then back on again, theres a problem with the sound of the keyboard and lock clicks
When you lose keyboard clicks and the lock sounds, those are system sounds and they can be controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

However, if the problem is intermittent, I would first try resetting the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen, then let go of the buttons. That might cure the problem.
If it doesn't, then I would try resetting all settings. No data will be lost, but you will he to enter all of the device preferences and settings again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. -
So yesterday I went to do some work on my laptop.
My laptop is from about 2005-2006 so it's pretty knackered. Everything was going just fine but then my Avast! Security software notified me saying "VIRUS DETECTED" so I tried to go on the avast application but it wouldn't open. I tried to open my browser but the icon just bounced and stopped and them nothing happened after! So i clicked on the apple sign and clicked shut down. Then the system wouldn't shut down. So i held down the power button causing it to shut itself off. The next day I opened the laptop and turned it on. It made the healthy turning on noise and I can hear the fan working perfectly fine. The startup screen is showing. This is an all grey screen with the Apple logo in the middle and a spinning circle in the middle, the circle has been spinning for over 10 minutes now and I do not know what to do. I use this laptop for literally everything and I cannot possibly afford to replace this . I am hearbroken as I know that there is a possibility that I will no longer be able to use this laptop.
I would be extremely grateful if someone helped me as I am truly devastated. :(

Just curious if anyone could help. I bought my daughter an iPod for Christmas and it's only holding about 20 apps, 16 songs and 3 movies. I deleted all of my pictures, so no pictures. And it continues to say that I need to delete some items, b/c there basically isn't enough free space. I thought the iPod touch, held alot more than that and that is the reason why I bought it. Could anyone explain if this is normal or if this has happened to them. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
BarbaraYou are not giving us enough information. A singe move can easiy take more than one GB. Ehne you click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes on the computer a colored bargraph will show the discribution of storage used on the iPod. What does that show? If the "other" category is greater than about 1 GB you can restore yu iPod, sometimes to factory defaults/new iPod is required, to get it to its normal of about 1/2 GB.
