The F 3.6 "Downloading Update" appears to be an endless loop (Mac OS 10.5.8) - any thoughts??
The horizontal barber shop bar continues, with the message "Connecting to the Update server" - something is not taking,
thanks, in advance

I tried to download my pictures with my memory card from my camera (this has always been sucessful) however the pictures would not download, and appear to be encrypted and unable to view, also not saved in my 'Iphotos' This also erased the pictures from the memory card. Help.....anyway of retrieving them?
With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
did you get a message when trying to import from the memory card?
did you use a card reader?
what was you exact workflow for attempting the import?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library? See image below:
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

My daughter has 2 websites she can not fully access because the iPad won't download updates for Adobe. What is Apple doing to solve this problem?
Flash has been used for more than just displaying videos. The Vote choice your daughter found is one of those flash type sites that will not display on iOS devices. There are now over 100 million iPads, and who knows how many more iPhones out there. Developers who want their content to display on all these devices will have to move away from the old Flash technology.
There were some version of Flash that ran on other brands of tablets. But Adobe has stopped all development of Flash for all mobile devices. As time goes on and mobile operating systems evolve the no Apple devices will lose their ability to run Flash too. Web developers need to move on to cleaner, more efficient types of programming. -
Whats wrong with the servers i cant download update 5.1 firmware
whats wrong with the servers i cant download update 5.1 firmware ive been trying for 2 days it says i dont have permission to access the requested source
What says you don't have permission to access the requested source? That is not an error that should come up at all either from iTunes or when attempting an over the air upgrade. At least not an error that has anything to do with the servers.
It could be a permissions problem on your computer or an issue being caused by your firewall or antivirus software. -

I have an iPhone 4 and since I updated to iOS6 I must hit the home button several times to return home or sometimes turn off and then back on. Any thoughts? Could this be related to running low on available storage?
Hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the phone shuts down and let it restart.

I need to use an existing ID (email address) on a new iPhone. It tells me "choose another ID - that one is in use," with the option to "use existing ID," however, it is an endless loop, referring me only to change my password on the existing ID.
How do I enable my new device with an existing ID - I do not need to change the password for the millionth time!
None of the FAQs (or the Community choices below) address new devices, they are all about APPS and iCloud stuff.If it is an existing iCloud ID, you should be able to just go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with it.

Since yesterday my iphone 4 has started to freeze intermittently when unlocking. When it happens nothing happens (left it for an hour last night) until I reset the phone, but it's done it 5 times today. Never had this prob before. Any thoughts?
I had the same problem (freezing iphone when trying to unlock) today.
1) I made a backup of my iphone using itunes.
2) Went to my service provider and made a sim swap. So, I think there was a problem with the nano simcard.
Problem solved. -
Last night I downloaded the latest Word update. Today the first Word document crashed and I lost 45 minutes of work in spite of having saved the document numerous times. Why is Word crashing the day after a safety update? I have Office 2008 for Mac
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/LaunchDaemons
Open Console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & next startup for clues. -
Itunes is throwing a -15000 error code on my Windows vista. Ipad and Ipod work great for streaming to remote speakers, trying to use the computer and it throws the error code.
Any thoughts? I've rebooted the laptop, modem, and AE, even plugged in the laptop recommended by other users, still nothing.the following is for W7 but might work for you:

This format confuses me. I intended to simply ask a question but then this discussion window opened up and my question appears as though it were a topic.
Can we ask a question without beginning a discussion? Then I am chided for trying to post a "blank message". I am only asking a question. What is all this talk of messages anyway?
My question is: The icon next to "trash" that shows downloading is gone. The bootcamp icon is also gone. How do I get them both back.
ThanksWelcome,
If you are refering to the Dock Icon which showed you your Downloads folder then open a Finder Window on your Home folder and drag the Downloads folder to the dock. It will create an Icon for the folder.
Not sure about the Bootcamp icon, don;t use it but if there is a Bootcamp folder the procedure should be the same.
regards
BTW Starting a discussion is the same as asking a question. -
Anyone unable to login to the App Store to download updates?
I go to update my apps, and it says I can't login at this time. It's been going on for about a week now. My connection is fine and I know my password is correct. Anyone else having this trouble? It seems to have started happening out of the blue. I also tried to log out and put my info back in but when I go to sign in it says my information is incorrect. Yet when I go to create another ID, it gives me the same message - cannot connect. So I don't think it has anything to do with my info. I'm sad because I have updates I can't download and my apps won't open then,
Hi Julie_x01,

Unable to open the iTunes store or download/update apps
When I try to open the iTunes store on my iPhone i get the error "cannot connect to iTunes store". When I try to download or update apps I get the loading bar on the app icon, but it never downloads. I contacted apple support and was told to check here. I have already restarted the phone several times. I have disabled and enabled wifi. I verified that the issue is not the wireless network, because I have this issue on 3 different networks as well as 3G. I also have no problems using safari, I am writing this post from my phone. I would love some suggestions to fix this.
Is iTunes endlessly saying "Accessing iTunes Store"? Or is something a bit different going on?

iBooks will not open only the icon is there when I go to App Store to download it just says open like it is already there !! Help please this is my first ipad but have always used apple products
First quit all apps (Double tap the Home button and swipe the app preview page up) and try a reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
Check your Restrictions:
Settings > General > Restrictions
Is it in Settings?
Try deleting from here: Settings > General > Usage > iBooks > Delete App
Then redownload
