Strange and Sudden Problem With Ipad and Itunes

Hey all, have been searching online and haven't found an answer to this problem... so any help would be very much appreciated!
My girlfriend's father gave us an IPad as a very generous present several months ago. He had hooked it up to his computer to play with it a bit before handing it over, so of course his ITunes info was present when I plugged it into my computer. No problem: I went into the setting and changed everything, sync'ed it up, etc.
No problems until last week.
I saw I needed to update some apps. I went into the Ipad's App Store. It prompted me for my ITunes username and password. I entered it, and it let me continue. I went to update my apps, and it prompted me a second time: this time suddenly asking for my gf's father's password!
I have never had this problem before (use the ipad all the time, etc). As far as troubleshooting, I have so far:
1) Gone into the ipad settings, signed out of my username, signed back in, etc.
2) Signed out of the IPad's itunes in settings, gone into my computer's Itunes and signed out... then plugged Ipad into computer and signed back in to both Itunes at the same time.
But still, the same thing happens.... prompts me for MY itunes password upon just entering the App Store.... then asking for my gf's father's password the moment I try to download something.
Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

In order to resolve this, you need to do the following:
1) Go back to your girlfriend's father's computer where the iPad was first synced.
2.) Plug the iPad in to the computer.
3.) Sign out of your dad's iTunes Store account via iTunes.
4.) Then, reboot the iPad.
That should fix the issue.

  • Getting error and connection problems with iPad and DLink DI-634M router

    We're seeing spotty connectivity from our iPad - sometimes it works fine, other times it can't get to any websites. Looking at our wireless router logs, I found a bunch of messages like this for the iPad's address:
    "Blocked incoming TCP packet from 192.168.0.140:52023 to 74.125.0.222:80 with unexpected acknowledgement 3307518865 (expected 3307530074 to 3307595610)"
    What does this indicate and how can I fix it?
    Searching a bit, I found recommendations to disable SPI on the router's firewall, but I don't see any option for doing that on the DI-634M's admin pages.
    Any help appreciated - thanks.

  • Serious and Sudden Problem with Z10 NEED HELP PLEASE

    I have a z10, one of the first that came out in Toronto (if it makes a
    difference), a couple of hours ago I came across a serious and sudden
    problem.
    I was able to swipe left and right between pages of apps, even drop down
    from the top, but I cannot open anything, not even make a call or settings
    options.
    Any time I try to, for a split second it looks like its about to load
    something then nothing. (image slides to the right quickly and goes back on
    every attempt)
    So I first did a reset, same problem, then I did a battery pull (about 15 minutes) and problem presisted.
    I tried through USB to do a backup on blackberry manager and perhaps do a
    re-install of everything, however when I was prompted for the password of
    my device on my PC it kept telling me it was an incorrect password (I use
    this blackberry on my computer 4-7 days a week, twice a day sometimes for a
    year and I have never miss typed my password nor have i changed it)
    After trying everything to make sure the first letter maybe was upper/lower
    case, even my other possible phone password, nothing worked..
    On the 5th failed attempt my phone prompted me to type 'blackberry', which
    i did, then i typed my password on my phone which i type in about 15 times
    a day becuase I set my phone to a 5 minute lock and still said it was incorrect.... I am no on 9/10 attempts and lost
    for options.
    Please if anyone can give me any suggestions, or even how to backup my phone
    and whipe it now, or I have an earlier backup form 4 months ago that I
    wouldnt mind going back to in worst case scenario.
    Thank you for your help in advance,
    Solved!

    Sorry, no I haven't experienced that. It could be from an app you downloaded but that's just a guess. Wiping the device will tell us a lot. If the device still doesn't work you'll want to reload the OS using BB Link. if it still doesn't work after that then warranty support will be necessary through Rogers.

  • I'm at the end of my tether with not being able to access itunes which I could do perfectly well before! Now my laptop won't even connect to the internet despite the connection at the hub being excellent! No problem with ipad and phone - only windows!

    I'm tired of this problem of not being able to access itunes on my laptop and now no internet access despite connection and strength being excellent. What are windows playing at? Worked perfectly well until recently. Very frustrating and time consuming!

    Just a few lines to assure you you are not alone regarding speed delivery. By no means.
    I'm on Infinity 2 with HH5 - was virtually guaranteed 63 d/l and told possibly even up to 78. My actual speeds are nearer 15 (yes 15!) to 28 d/l if I am lucky. I've played all the obligatory games of checking and posting and reviewing my HH stats - and of course wasting my time with India "help" customer services who are instructed to read from a script of inane generalities which are usually completely irrelevant and have no connection whatsoever with a user's Specific problem.
    It more often than not turns out that the automated monitoring system imposes a software called DLM = Digital Line Management = which (with the endless excuse of improving line stability) increases noise margins and drastically reduces speed. This can kick in pretty rapidly and can take at least 3 to 4 days to modify itself - if indeed at all!!! Usually an Openreach engineer visit is then needed - who will re-set the Profile to what it is you are supposed to be paying for ..... then of course it is totally possible that DLM will re-emerge and the same old cycle of troubles will have to be endured.
    We pay in good faith at the outset on the back of so many promises - only to be cynically let down and dismissed once signed up. It is quite wrong we have to continually argue our case to (try) to get anywhere and are always reminded that we are tied into contracts with expensive escape clauses - or that an engineer's visit is only free IF it is proved the fault is not inside your house - which it very rarely is! This is often more an Ordeal than a subscribed service. Superfast reliable Broadband in the UK ? Ha!

  • HT4623 Sound and other problems with Ipad 3 after ios 6.1.3 update

    I purchased Ipad 3 last year and got problem of losing sound when I restored the Ipad throgh itunes. The sound came back automatically after I charged the device to 100%. Recently I got the same problem when the operating system was Ios 6.1.2 and then i got updated it to ios 6.1.3. The problem has not been solved while has been added up. Now the Ipad operation is slow, its either freezes and crashes frequently. Once it gets in sleep mode then it does not come back untill i press power button and home button togehter for sometime. I have checked all settings like mute and have restored the ios multiple times on two separate PCs but the problem is still there. Please help me what i need to do next.

    Try a reboot of your ipad. Hold the Sleep/Wake button and Home button simulataneously. Keep holding, ignoring the red slider, until the Apple logo appears. Release the buttons and let the ipad restart. A reboot often fixes numerous problems.
    Also are you aware that by suncing with a different computer it is likely the personal stuff you had on your ipad from your imac will be removed?
    The ipad is designed to sync with only one device.

  • Problems with iPad and iPhone... new appointments in grey color after creating on my book...

    I have some problems with Calendar application on my iPhone and iPad under iOS 6 with Microsoft Exchange 2010 accounts
    When I create new appointment on my MacBook in iCal or in Outlook when new appointment have one or more recipients then after synchronization on my mobile devices I see new appointment in grey color but not in color of my calendar... color changes to right color only after saving some changes to appointment on mobile device but only on this device

    but you should have a backup in itunes.
    Every time you sync your iOS device iTunes creates a backup. go check if its there, iTunes Preferences >Devices. and there you should see if you have a backup, and in case from which date the backup is.
    And ofcourse you can get your icloud data back by just logging in with your Appleid under icloud in settings on the iphone.
    But anyway, if the iPhone works when you restor it as new: try adding your backup, and see if the issue comes back. And experiment with your backup and try to work out what is causing the issue, my guess is that its some app!   Good Luck!

  • Problem with Ipad and Home Sharing - Please Chime In

    Just got my ipad and love it.  But, can't seem to get home sharing working.  I have set it up and can successfully share between two different computers on the network.  I set up the ipad in settings/ipod and it doesn't give me an error message (which I can force with a bad password), so it seems to be talking to the cloud (plus the ipad is generally able to hit the internet and the internal network is free of firewalls.  But, when I go to the ipod icon I don't see any little house on the "library bar".  Right now, I should even see two (for both computers that can see each other and are sharing.  What am I missing here?  Any suggestions?  I've already upgraded to the newest itunes and even tried a new itunes account, to no avail.  Restarted the ipad, etc. 
    I need your ideas.  Thanks.

    OK. Done. But I still do not understand how I ended up with the duplicates ?

  • Problems with ipad and app sync

    I bought a couple of apps with my ipad, and when I connect it to my imac, itunes tells me that these apps cannot be transferred to the computer because it´s not activated. But when I activate it, it tells me that it is already activated. I´m using only one appleID. I don´t know what to do.I bought keynote for ipad with my imac and I can´t transfer it to my ipad. I would be happy if someone can help me.

    I had a bit of this a little while ago, then it went away. I kept activating the iMac in iTunes, and eventually it shut up.
    Try restarting the iPad, and if that doesn't work, back it up and do a Restore
    To get Keynote on the iPad, in the interim go to the App Store on iPad, and check Purchases - keynote should show up there and you can download it.

  • Encore CS3 - Hangs and import problems with menus and avi footage with audio tracks present.

    I'm trying to import some footage files in .avi format into Encore CS3 and am having several problems.
    In what follows when I say "crash" I mean Encore quits with a standard Windows error. When I say "hang" I mean Encore does not quit but rather becomes an unresponsive process that must be killed manually using Windows Task Manager.
    My System:
    WinXP Pro SP2
    2.93 GHz Intel Celeron CPU - single core
    Intel PERL mobo
    3GB 400MHz RAM
    NVidia 7800GS video
    I mention these specs however I am not experiencing any hardware
    related bugs or issues (like out of memory or video driver crashes
    etc) when using any CS3 app.
    The footage files (as reported by GSpot) and problems I am seeing. In all cases GSpot reports that I have the appropriate codec installed:
    footage1.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 192kb/s, 716834 KB
    Attempting to import as timeline causes Encore CS3 to hang.
    Importing as an Asset allows it to import but when I try to click
    on it in the project windown to add it to a new empty timeline,
    Encore hangs. It plays fine in Windows Media Player.
    footage2.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG-1 Layer 3 48kHz 128kb/s, 718302 KB
    Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
    with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
    fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no audio.
    footage3.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG1-Layer3 48kHz 112kb/s, 717606 KB
    Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
    with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
    fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no
    audio. I tried converting this one using AVS to both MPEG3 and DivX,
    each using MPEG1-Layer3 44kHz 192kb/s audio, and got the same issue
    upon importing into Encore CS3. I also loaded it into Camtasia
    Studio and it looked fine over there. The audio was present and I
    was able to export it as a .WAV file. When I tried looking at the
    file in Soundbooth CS3, there was no audio track or, more
    accurately, the audio track was a flat line.
    By way of comparison these are importing perfectly:
    footage4.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Beta2, MPEG1-Layer3 48kHz 189kb/s Two mono
    channels LAME3.96r, 717436 KB.
    footage5.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Final, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s Six
    channels (3/2 .1), 716418 KB.
    footage6.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Final, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s Six
    channels (3/2 .1), 716418 KB.
    footage7.avi - XVID XviD 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s 6 channels
    (3/2 .1), 717502 KB
    footage8.avi - XVID XviD 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s 6 channels

    Although this one imported & transcoded correctly, when I went to
    build it to a DVD image file I got some strange errors during the
    "planning video" stage that prevented the process from completing.
    Unfortunately I neglected to write down the error message I recieved
    which read like quite nonsensical babble to me, and I have since
    deleted the project folder. I remember it was not a memory or
    display related error and it included a timestamp where the error
    was happening. I played the footage in the preview panel thru the
    identified timestamp but it previewed perfectly without even a
    jitter in either the video or audio. Took forever to transcode so I
    doubt I'll be doing this one again anytime soon.
    Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the

    Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the remote control to make it appear. Other than that it seems to play ok in that player. Also tested it in 2 other DVD players (a Panasonic and Zenith) and it worked just fine like it's supposed to in them. Also plays perfectly in my computer's DVD player/burner using Windows Media Player v10. I tried burning to Memorex +RW single-layer single-sided disks at 6, 7, & 8Mbps project settings but got the exact same result every time.
    Encore CS3 crashes fairly often during authoring, particularly during imports, and when I go to edit things like calling up a timeline in the timeline panel, dragging footage into an existing timeline, or changing button links in a menu etc.. I have also experienced seemingly random hangs even more often, probably 5 or 6 times as often as a crash. Saving the project after every little change I make, then closing and restarting Encore allows me to make progress albeit at a significantly reduced workflow rate. Accessing Photoshop from Encore appears to be working flawlessly so far aside from the slow load times. Encore hangs sometimes during video transcoding, repeat the process and it works ok. If I try to import a menu from the library after importing my footage files, Encore hangs trying to import it either at the 50% mark or the 99% mark (it varies even with the same exact menu selected from the library). If I import the menu first and the footage after, then no problems. Also trying to render motion menus after importing footage causes Encore to hang, render before footage import and everything works ok. Interestingly enough, previewing my project in Encore's monitor or preview panels works perfectly even in High quality mode -- in fact it operates quite smoothly in comparison to other apps I have tried. Although those footage files that had missing audio tracks on import obviously played silently, I have yet to experience a hang or crash during a preview or when scrubbing through a timeline in the monitor panel.
    The last problem I've seen is with the project cache files. It doesn't always get rid of cache files when stuff is deleted from the project. I was working on one project and surprisingly ran out of disk space. When I tracked it down I found that there were some two dozen copies of a footage file I had repeatedly imported and deleted from the project still sitting in the cache folder. The file was an avi about 2GB so it was taking up some 40 GB of disk space for stuff that was no longer in the project. I tried shutting down Encore and manually deleting all the cache files, and that worked for most of them, but there was one 2GB file that kept reappearing in the cache folder even though it was no longer in the project. The XML file in the cache folder still had references to it in there so I can only assume that was the reason it kept showing up. I eventually had to delete and totally recreate the project from scratch to regain my lost disk space. This included having to sit thru a 6 hour long transcoding session which pissed me off to no end.
    Encore CS3 appears on the surface to be a very powerful, feature rich, and approachable app with a simple easy to use interface, but it is awfully bugged in just about every area I have explored and still needs lots and lots of work for it to be really useful. Frankly for me it is pretty damn annoying that I have invested so much money in this suite only to find several of the apps in it (Encore & Premiere in particular) behaving this poorly. In my opinion every single app in the suite exhibits lousy performance whenever you must do anything at all involving the disk from the time you click to start it up until the time you click to close it down. Several of them are just as seriously bugged as Encore too, and being a long time Photoshop v5.5 user I expected much more from Adobe. Even Photoshop is two or three times as slow now (e.g. it takes about 20-30 seconds to simply create an empty 500x500 pixel image file and almost a full minute to load a 30x60 pixel single-layer gif). So far I have attempted to create 6 DVDs using Encore and after 3 weeks of effort have only succeeded in getting one of them onto a final disk -- and that one is kinda limping to work correctly in my DVD player. Three of those projects became so corrupted while working on them that I had to delete them completely and recreate them from scratch, only to find that I still couldn't get them to completion for one reason or another. Seriously disappointing.

  • Order and Refund Problems with Chat and Vision

    Howdy,
    I am having a similar NIGHTMARE experience with Chat and Vision.
    I ordered my headset in January, and this is July.  I have still not received my refund.  They've strung me along every step of the way delaying, first the delivery of the product, to providing me with a product that did nto work right.  Then the same thing with the refund.  Delay at every turn.  
    Their big tactic is simply not to write.  I think they're hoping you'll forget all about your refund and have them keep the money.
    I have never ever ever dealt with a company this horrible.  And, I am too wondering what the heck is Skype doing teaming up with them?  BAD, BAD, BAD idea.

  • Problem with iPad and version 10.4.11

    I just received an iPad as a gift but I have have been unable to sync it with my computer. To remedy this, I purchased Mac OS X version 10.6, only to find that it is not compatible with my computer. I have not been able to find a version 10.5 on-line to download. Is there any other way to set up an iPad? I cannot afford to buy a new computer at this time.

    Using a friend's computer going to the Apple store to activate is fine but it's not going to be practical in the long term. In order to download OS updates and iTunes content a long term solution will be needed. The only way to do this is to acquire a copy of 10.5. As it's been discontinued now Ebay would probably be the best option. It's possible you may be able to get a copy from Apple customer service for a nominal fee.

    When trying to copy and paste, i have a hard time with at least 9 attempts before it takes effect. Thais has been going on for about 2 weeks now. Everything seems to happen as it's suppose to until you go and try to paste.

    Update; As of now, i am able to copy and paste. Steps i have taken to correct issues i had before.
    - I installed browser again, but issue came up again.
    -I uninstalled Google Chrome browser, it recently showed up in my task manger when i was not using the browser. AnVir Task Manger showed it being in use, so i stopped the processor and uninstalled Google Chrome.
    '''From Zdnet;Google has shipped a new version of its Chrome web browser to fix at least 14 security vulnerabilities that expose users to malicious hacker attacks.'''
    -I was using Iobit Toolbox Memory. For some reason, this seemed to be the cause of the problem. After uninstalling it, i am able to copy and paste with no more issues.
    I'm no expert, but this has worked for me. Enjoy your weekend. :-)

  • Re: Order and Refund Problems with Chat and Vision

    Oh my god. Chat and vision are by far the worst customer service I have ever had to deal with. I ordered 4 RTX Dual Skype phones and had endless trouble with them straight out of the pack: not charging properly, not staying logged in, not allowing Skype calls!!! And other major issues.
    Also I was charged import duty which is the exact opposite of what they say on their website. The customer support constantly drags the process out asking for documents that I've already supplied and taking days between communication. Constantly avoiding any commitment and refund! Why is Skype linked up with these people? They are actually worse than Eircom. They now want to collect the phones and have them 'assessed' by there team back in Hong Kong. Any chance I will see a refund or the phones again or any glimmer of actual customer support? I doubt it. It seems that their approach is to string you out until you loose patience! Skype get your act together!!!!! Sort these crooks out.

    Hello,
    I've sent your post to the Chat&Vision customer support unit together with a request for urgent action.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
