    When I ring someone from my iPhone 4 they can't hear me sometimes and other times they can hear me fine. This has only started happening since I updated to iOS 6 it was perfect the day before.

    Good news! I believe I have fixed my phone!!
    A friend of mine was having the same problem that I was having where you could hear other people but they couldn't hear you.
    We fixed the problem by redownloading the 4.2.1 update. 4th post down on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 is a list of links to the update files. I downloaded the one for my phone and did a restore (from a backup) after downloading the file and double clicking it so iTunes opens. Since I've done this my phone has been working perfectly again!
    It might take you a few tries, it took my friend 3 tries until his worked right and it worked for me on the first try. I'm guessing something was screwing up during the download.

  • Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available.  Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?

    Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available.  Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?

    I have the 6500A without plus and it is with a LAN cable connected with my Router.
    First make sure you have the latest printer firmware installed.
    Next restart the printer and the Router.
    I had the same. Problem but it went away after rebooting the Router.

    sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
    All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
    Mac also is platform and OS.
    Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.

  • Has anyone had the problem with their iPhone 5 where some people cannot receive texts from you?  And if so, is there a fix?

    Has anyone had the problem of not being able to send texts to certain people? 

    Here is another screenshot.  In this example, I did 'Get Info' on one of the goofy ones, and it shows that this Wolfmother song is sorted by the Eagles.  ***? 

  • Why can I sometimes paste text into a revision history dialog box and other times cannot?

    Why can I sometimes paste copied text (from another VI's revision history, for instance or from anywhere else) into a revision history dialog box and other times cannot? All versions of LabVIEW! It's something like the control key becomes diabled. I've noticed the same thing when saving many VI's at once, some will let you paste into revision history and others will not. Aren't all VI's created equally when it comes to revision history? All versions of LabVIEW since 3 have plagued me with this problem.

    Hello,
    If you'd like to add text to the revision history of a VI, you can
    paste into the Comment box and add all of your text at once.  The
    history itself can be read from this window, but cannot be directly
    edited.  The History field is read-only in the dialog box. 
    If you feel this should not be the case, your best course of action is
    to express your desire for added functionality to our developers on the Product Feedback page of our website.

    Hi,
    There was a Messages beta for Lion but basically the app Messages comes with Mountain Lion.
    You are asked for an Apple ID as the first step.
    If you add this Apple ID to your iPhone the Apple ID and iPhone number become linked and iMessages sent to either will be "Received at " on both.
    However this "Syncing" as Apple calls it only starts from the day/Time they are linked.
    Open chats that exist on the iPhone are not transferred to other devices.
    In fact the "sync" is Display on all devices and nothing more.
    Any action on the iPhone to an iMessages does not happen to those showing on your Mac version (or an iPad)

  • HT5731 How can I download my TV episodes to my Macbook Pro. I bought them from my iPad2, and I looked for them with the same AppleID on iTunes Store and they wont download to my iTunes.

    How can I download my TV episodes to my Macbook Pro. I bought them from my iPad2, and I looked for them with the same AppleID on iTunes Store and they wont download to my iTunes.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

    I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing. And I can't download any app because problems with my account regarding the credit card but the information is correct and it says it is not!!!

    You'll have to contact iTunes store support regarding your credit card information problem: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.  I'm not clear on what you're saying about your backup.  Are you saying that when you connect to iTunes it's asking you to restore from backup even though you already have?

    I can FaceTime from my ipad2 to my iphone4s but I can't FaceTime from my iphone4s to my ipad2 !!!!!! Can you help me please

    Review the Settings/FaceTime on each device. Each device should be set to it's own "reached at" and Caller ID. For example your iPhone can use it's phone number then set the iPad to use your Apple ID email address or one of the iCloud addresses. The call will not go through if both devices are set to receive a call on the same address.

  • Sometimes domestic text and other times M2M, why?

    I was considering going to a lower priced plan so I was looking over my text message usage to see if I can drop down a tier.
    I noticed that the same number being text/picture messaged is sometimes shown as "domestic text" and other times "M2M". This IS a Verizon number and its not just happening to one, but to multiple Verizon numbers I text. 
    I don't know if this is just a coincidence but when its shown as M2M it tends to be in the evening, and when its shown as domestic it tends to be in the day.
    Does whether or not it gets charged as one thing or the other depend on the time of day of the usage?

    Thank you for the great information SuzyQ!
    Please keep in mind that messages sent/received to/from any Verizon Wireless number are always M2M regardless of how the number is displayed on your bill, and if your text message package includes Unlimited M2M you will not be billed for M2M messages. Please note that our $5.00 message package does not include M2M feature and each message counts towards the 250 message allowance (including M2M messages). You can change your text message package online if you login to your My Verizon account or we can change it for you if you dial *611 on your mobile phone to contact our Customer Service department.

  • When i try to download itunes and other things it says my ios is out of date how do i update i have updated all updates but still will not let me dowload some application this is an old  mac book and firt time i have used it please help

    i have got an old mac book from a relative but i dont know how to upgrade to a later operating system.
    i have installed the updates but it keeps coming up i need a more up to date operating sytem ios6??
    pleasehelp

    Your old MacBook series, built between 2006 and 2010, had several
    different verions within those years and they do not all accept a later
    upgrade to the most newest OS X versions...
    These shipped with (early) intel-version Tiger OS X 10.4.x through
    Leopard 10.5.x, and early models can use Snow Leopard 10.6.8,
    & some can run as late as Lion 10.7.5; or maybe Mavericks 10.9.2.
    Hardware limits and system configuration specs determine this.
    A supported computer may also need hardware upgrade (RAM)
    to run a later OS X system version along with newer software.

    •Apple MacBook Specs (ALL MacBook Technical Specs) - everymac.com:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/index-macbook.html
    The base system upgrade for earliest MacBook 1.1 & MB2.1 past
    the original as-shipped Leopard 10.5.x, would be Snow Leopard
    10.6 (w/ Combo update to 10.6.8 v.1.1) for Snow Leopard download.
    So your MacBook likely has either Leopard or Snow Leopard. If it has
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed/updated to last step, then it may be
    able to go to the online Mac App Store, App Store, iTunes Store, etc.
    You can see if an applicable upgrade past the current OS X system
    is available from the Mac App Store. If yours is MacBook1.1 (early)
    then highest it may go is Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The later MB2.1
    has limited upgrade, and could use Lion OS X 10.7.5 at most.
    More recent builds of MacBook, toward the last model year 2010,
    can take as new an upgrade as Mavericks OS X 10.9.2. This is
    based on build version specs, hardware limitation, and so on.

    some help. Additional info from "More Info" in the next window can

    You're not confusing this with a shared Photo Stream...?
    Because the short answer is no, photos don't appear unless they were put there by someone with your Apple ID credentials. To rule out that possibility, change your Apple ID password by carefully following all these instructions:
    iCloud: Change your iCloud account password
    If you decide to change your password, and you also want to change your Apple ID, I recommend you do not concurrently change your Apple ID until sufficient time has passed and you are confident the password change has been effected on all your iOS devices. 24 hours ought to be more than enough.
    It is not necessary to change your Apple ID unless it is an email address you no longer wish to use.
