The woodlands store issue
First of all, sorry for my english.
About a week ago (April 2, 2011 9:24) my colleague bought ipad 2 64GB wifi+3G for me at the Woodlands store. One of the important parameters was AT&T version of the device (because here in Russia, we have no CDMA operators).
It is electronic queue in the shop, so my colleague set AT&T parameter when he was taking queue ticket. Despite that seller gave him Verizon version of the device and my colleague didn't see a little sign "verizon" on the box label. I found it out only when I have opened the box in Russia. Another colleague has the same issue - he bought 2 devices by mistake. I think it is sellers mistake.
As a result I have a top ipad 2 64GB wifi+3G which costs 840$ but I can't use a 3g internet what I need so much. (Here in Russia I can use internet-wifi only at home, we have very few places with wifi-internet even in our capital.)
I can't bring it back to the shop because I am locating many thousand miles from it.
Im very sad about that, and I hope other people did not run into the same issue.
If your "colleague" is still back in the states, ship it back and to him for return. Otherwise sell it on ebay.

I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

Experience with Apple Store in the Woodlands, TX.
The staff were very friendly. I had two week 37 units I had purchased at another location and over the last two days they exchanged both of them for me and went out of their way to hold a week 38 model.
I did have to register to see an "Apple Genius", but after seeing the problem he did not argue and agreed the blacks look reflective. We now have two week 38 models and they both look great and pass the contrast, gamma and white saturation test that you see failing here:
http://jdeats762.bravehost.com/iBadScreen.htm
I was not charged a restocking fee on either unit. I was also told by the staff that they had heard about problem from other stores, but did not elaborate. He said the rumor is "Apple is probably going to make an announcement and have us pull the week 37 units so they can't be sold". He didn't elaborate beyond that.
But buyer beware until that announcement and order comes from Apple Corporate, the Apple stores are still going to sell week 37 units, this isn't the Apple Store's fault, it's just the way they have to do business, even the managers hands are tied until Apple's corporate office puts out a statement and issues a command.
My experience with Woodlands, TX store was excellent.

I recently purchased a tv episode from the iTunes store. However, I can not get the tv episode downloaded to my IPOD Touch i.e. can not sync movie although music works fine. From what I read it is an issue with the format of the episode. The format is HD and apparently is too much for my IPOD touch. According to the documentation, the SD format for the episode should have been downloaded at the same time as the HD. I have the latest iOS for my IPOD Touch, 4.2.1 and latest for ITunes 10.5.3.3. I am using my PC with Windows 7. I can not download directly to the IPOD Touch since access to the clous is required i.e. iOS 4.3 or higher. Any suggestions?
My suggestion is for you to do the downloads overnight.

Issue with the App Store showing up blank.
Issue with the App Store, it will not let me search for new apps. The screen is blank. The update section and features section works, but it will not let me search for new apps. I have restarted my phone and no changes. The newest update to the iphones when the iphone 5 came out, i think, messed up this app. When i am looking at how to fix it, it tells me to delete it and try again, but the App store is not a deletable app. Any ideas why my App store, specifically the search section of this app doesn't work?
I suspect it is on Apple's side of things. Mine was blank too, but now it works again. Fixed itself one morning.

I have 3 Iphone 4's. One of them updates from the App Store with no issues. My other two which are under the same AppleID will not let me do updates. when I try it asks for my Credit card info then after i enter it it says "security code invalid". Has anyone else had this issue and how have you fixed it?
thank youLeigh...
but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.
Plants vs. Zombies, and that is all for additional software on here
FYI: Some third party software can cause issues with the App Store > Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.) -
Ok here is the deal. I purchased match for myself from itunes from my mac and for my iphone. It worked, i assume, as it was supposed to. All the music from my library and my phone went to the cloud and my phone now has an extra 7gigs of memory that i didn't have. I decided to do the same for my daughter's new itunes account for her mini. For the mini the match was bought from her toshiba laptop and it just doesn't want to work. She will need the extra memory spce for her other interests. Am I missing something? Did I do it wrong? is there anone else experiencing the same issues?
On the Mac Mini sign into the iTunes Store using the same account ID that was used to purchase the service on the toshiba laptop.

Apple tv is giving me a meesage that says... There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Go to the iTunes Store on your computer and click Purchase History to resolve problem. I have gone to my purchase history but can't seem to fix this issue.
You can contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department at no charge using the form on their Support page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find an "Email Us" button) and explain your problem to them.

I have had the same account for over 4 years. I have had my ipod touch for 2 years and have always been able to access the itunes store and download content from my pc and my ipod touch. A few months ago, I started to receive the message that I've entered the wrong password but I know that it is correct. I can download all I want from my pc without any problems at all. How do I get my device to accept my itunes password so that I can get back to downloading content directly to my device?
I'm having the same issue. Just hooked up a Mac Mini and running the internet just fine over wifi, but Facetime isn't working. I'm going to try resetting my router in the morning.

Your signature in 1st post was 10.8.2.
You went backwards?
Did you reformat and reinstall when you first purchased it?
If not I HIGHLY recommend you do that before you do anything else.
