  • I have the original ipod touch and I can't get any apps on it because I think it is to old. Is there anything I can do to upgrade so that I can get apps without having to buy a new ipod!

    I have the original ipod touch and I can't get any apps on it. The only things I have on it are music and pictures. Do i have to install some sort of upgrade or something in order to get the apps on it? If so which upgrade is it and where do i find it? Thanks!

  • My phone thinks the headphones are plugged in and I can't get any sounds.  How to fix?

    My iphone 5 thinks that the headphones are plugged in and they are not.  I used them earlier today but they are no longer plugged in to the phone. I can't get any sound (text alerts, ringing, etc) on the phone outside headphones.  Any ideas on how to fix?

    I have resolved my own problem thanks to reviewing other discussions. The solution that worked for me and that was suggested by an Apple store associate some time ago was to plug and unplug my headphone jack into the iPad four times. On the fourth time leave the headphone jack connected and rotate the plug clockwise, then remove and try your sound. When you use the external volume control the HEADPHONE label should be gone. It appears I have to do this now every time after I've used my headphone jack.

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

    HI,
    Can we have a Pic ?
    Why do you think it is connected to the Messages App ?
    Realistically I would suggest the box is to do with anything but the Messages app.

  • I updated the software which was supposed to allow deleting photos from photos and it worked for a time and now only let's me delete a few of them.  Also I found that the photo section tripled some of the photos and I can't get rid of them.  What is going

    I updated the software as required for the iPad and now I can no longer delete photos from the app in the photo section.  I had been able to do it but now there are multiple photos of the same pic and I can't remove any of them.  What is wrong?

    Photos in the Camera Roll or in the Imported Images album can be deleted within the album. One the album and select the icon with the curved arrow. Then tap on the photo or photos you want to delete to select them. Finally tap delete.
    For photos in other albums you delete them by moving them out of the albums they were in on your computer. If you're using a Mac open iTunes on your Mac and move the photos out of the album then go through the sync process with your iPad.
    If you're using a pc then move the photos out of the folders they are in and go through the sync process.

  • How come I can't access the app store on my iPod touch? There is no icon and I can't get to it through the iTunes icon. My iPod does have the latest software.

    See question above.

    On my iPod touch I don't have a spotlight search icon or option available. Also under my settings and general there is no "restriction" options or settings. I reset the iPod several times and that doesn't work.
    The thing is the music that is on my iPod is not all in my iTunes library so I can never sync automatically. Also if i restore to factory settings then it will erase what i have on my iPod and not in my library. I always manually add songs. When I plug in my iPod and i go under Summary...the only other tabs are music, tv shows, photos and info. There is no Apps tab. When i plug in my iPhone i do get the apps tab.
    I got my iTouch awhile ago....is it possible that this is why i can't get apps?? I got the iTouch back in 2008.
    Ughhh this is so frustrating. I just want to get this one app on my iPod Touch. Please help!!

  • I have elements 11 and I did the 30 day trial of elements 12. When the trial expired it caused problems with my elements 11. Nothing opens correctly, some not at all and I can't get help?

    Please help me. I am so disappointed in Adobe. I was planning on upgrading to 12 after the trial period but was unsure still. The problem I am having now is that my PSE 11 Organizer is off the grid. When I right click on a file and go to "open With", it only offers me the option to use Premiere Elements and not Photoshop. I found the .exe@ file for Photoshop Elements 11 and created a shortcut to my task bar in order to get to it. That won't work on my organizer though. Should I just uninstall and reinstall the whole thing? I'm on Windows 8.1. I refuse to upgrade to 12 after being refused any support considering it was the trial they encouraged me to try that caused my problem.If I have to reinstall everything with it impact the projects I've created?

    wesb
    What computer operating system is involved in the Premiere Elements 11 and 13 issues? Same computer or different ones? Are you installing from purchased download installation files or from purchased installation disc? Does Premiere Elements 11 work completely on this computer whereas 13 will not?
    Let us go through the typical drill so as to take nothing for granted.
    1. Does the problem exist with or without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Are you working with an individual home computer or in a
    school or company network?
    2. Are you running the program as Administrator and is there any "domain" account involved?
    3. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on the computer with Premiere Elements?
    Let us start by ruling in or out any of the above, and then we can decide what next.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • There is a new Calendar function in Yahoo Mail, and I can't get Firefox to access this (though Safari will) - any comment?

    Everything else in my Rogers Yahoo Mail is fine - its just this new functionality that keeps reporting - over a week or so - that it can't be accessed. When I open Safari, I have no trouble accessing the Calendar (which has been redesigned by Yahoo).

  • HT201363 There is no option of a "rescue" email address and I can´t get the answers to my apple id security questions. What do I do?

    Its seems impossible to get to reset my apple id security questions even though I have tried to follow all of the instructions offered.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I just updated my ipod touch and when I go into itunes, it shows the icloud icon and I can't see any of my music.  I can see that the music is there from my desktop.  Is there someway I can shut the icloud "thing" down so that I can just access my music?

    I have just updated the itunes software on my two older ipod touches.  Now when I try to access itunes. all I get is the icloud icon and it spins endlessly so I never get to see my music library.  I can see from my desktop that my music is still on the device.  I just want to be able to access my music library.  How can I get past the iclud icon?

  • HT1267 How do I find the owner of an iphone I have found But there is no contacts or Cell number of the phone that is the phones cell number and the phone has been suspended and you can't get any information on returning it .

    How can I find the owner of a found phone that  must have been reported stolen but all you want to do is find out who the person is that owns the phone. But you have no idea who the person is who stole the phone in the first place but now you only want to give it back to its rightful owner.

    I found a iPhone 5s, and I'm willing to return to the owner ASAP, but it seems that "he" have not turned on "Find my iPhone".
    Could anyone help me get in touch with the owner, that was probably here for the 2014's World Cup?
    I'm a Brazilian Apple user, and got stolen 6 months ago. I'm fully aware of what it is. Please, don't flood me with the obvious. The law here DOES NOT WORK.
    This owner must get it back, even if I must send it overseas.
    Thank you for the support.

  • Some application installed Butterscotch and I can't get it out completely, even through regedit

    I removed it through control panel and that got it out of IE. My opsys is XP Professional. It still comes up in the little dialog box on the right...even though it's gone according to regedit!

    How is that "Butterscotch" related to Firefox?
    Have you looked to see if it installed an add-on into Firefox? <br />

    The music on my iPhone 4 is not working. There are red dots next to the selections and no sound occurs when they are touched.

    Can you play those songs in iTunes on your computer?
    Make sure they are all part of your iTunes library before you sync and that they were bought with the same AppleID you use on your phone.
