This last update turned off my USB ports. Anybody have a work around?
Right after I restarted from an Apple Update my 17" Intel iMac 1.83 - OS X 10.6.8 all my USB port stopped talking to my wired mouse and keyboard. I hope someone know a work around because two years ago I had to purchase an external DVD be my on board drive failed to see DVDs blanks and would not read any DVD. Just before that my built in iSight camera didn't work after an Apple Update. Please respond with you thoughts. Thank you.

Since this last update, something has happened to not only my phone, but to my daughters phone as well. We are constantly having to restart our phone and have no cell coverage or internet access in places we used to have no problems at all. This is very aggravating and I am ready to ditch the phone for something else! Please help!
I have a S3 and this is driving me crazy. I have taken the battery out (left out for 2 hours in dark place inside original box, SIM card out, hard reset, soft reset, and anything else I could think of including going back to factory settings.
My phone will turn off in the middle of something I am doing. No matter what it is. I still get signal and am able to talk to people. But I use my phone for work and it is starting to get annoying when you have to re-start the email you were typing because your phone turned off and a draft was not saved.
This is my replacement phone that I got back in March/April of this year. I have an otter box for it and had no problems with the other phone until I dropped it (no otter box).
Not to mention my battery will say its like at 80% in the middle of taking a picture and then it wont turn on until I have connected to a charger because it wont turn on without it because from the time I wanted to take the picture to when I turn it on, I lost 75% of my battery.
Or if I get lucky and it will turn on, I have lost half of my battery charge no what percentage it is.
Please help me fix this as I need a working phone and it is not great having to carry a portable charger with me at all times. -
How do you update smart playlists with live update turned off?
If I create a smart playlist in itunes and deselect live updating then how exactly does the smart playlist load up?
The reason I ask is that started setting up Smart Playlists for all of the artists on my computer and they're all set to live update which is consequently slowing down my itunes. I realize that I may not necessarily need that. My question is though...how exactly would I go about manually updating a smart playlist that has live updating turned off?Well, the problem is that I have smart playlists for every artist in my library (which is literally hundreds). With every live update turned on, every time I edit tags for a new single or something it'll scan all the smart playlists for matches. The reason I'd like to have smart playlists instead of regular playlists is that I tend to add a lot of singles, and, especially in the hip hop genre, they tend to have a lot of guest appearances so I'd like the smart playlists to do tehir job.....I'd just prefer to not have it set to live update so I can avoid delays during tagging.
Apparently this is a known side efffect of having many smart playlists in your itunes. I realize my way of working with them might be slightly unconventional in comparison to how they are typically used but it's great for me. If I could leave live update on without any performance degregation then I would but it seems I have to pick.
I read somewhere that if you shut down itunes and restart that it'll refresh all your smart playlists (if live update is turned off). -
I'm from India and after update i can't turn off my 3G or i have the option to turn on/off LTE only. I don't want to be always on 3G because my battery is running out of life.
This is the same as what happened to customers in most of the rest of the world in a past release, and it's because carriers want to stop supporting older transport methods.
There's nothing you can do about it other than complain to your carrier, as they're likely the ones who asked Apple to remove the option. -
The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?
The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?
iCloud wasn't on, I accepted iTunes offer to upgrade to 6.1.1.
Next time I went to sync through iTunes, iCloud was on.
Your advice appears to have solved my problem...for now.
Thank you.
Historically, the upgrade to 6.0 lost all of my contacts.
A manual restore brought them back.
Tech support said "Oh, that happens sometimes, you have to back up before upgrades", fortunately I do.
Again, thank you for the help. -

All plug-ins and Adobe add-ons gone after this last update! I want them back!
I have 4 critical Topaz plug-ins and several Adobe add-ons that make my workflow so much easier but after this last update they've disappeared. I found the Adobe AO's briefly in 'Extensions' and Features needed an update, I did and then it disappeared! I restarted and now 'Extensions' has NOTHING in it! I want my stuff back! How do I do this?
Thanks! I did redownload them and everything works again. AND my Adobe add-ons suddenly reappeared too! Thanks!

I have an iPhone 5 and lately the battery won't last, it turns off at 20%, what could it be?
I have an iPhone 5 and lately the battery won't last, it turns off at 20%, what could it be? I have to recharge 3 times per day
I heard from an apple specilist once that it is good to let your iPhone die atleast once a month. My iPhone 5 battery lasts all day if I charge it before I go to bed. Try not using your iPhone when it is charging. If you don't notice a difference soon, consult with the apple store

My airport turns off by itself and I have to restart the computer for it to work again and it only turns off again. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.8. What can I do to solve this problem?
Usually the HDD is the frist place to look. Use the original install disk and start up the MBP with the C key down. Go through the installation process until you see on the display a menu bar on top.
Click on UTILITIES.
From the drop down menu select Disk Utility.
Open Disk Utility>First Aid and run Verify and Repair.
What are the results?

If I go into settings and physically touch the WiFi that has been used since his was new than after waiting for 2 to 3 min it finally goes on line. I never had any problems until this last update. It always went on line automatically with out having to go into settings. Just a pain. Once I do this it usually stays on line.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If that didn't help, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -
my mac has started freezing and suddenly shutting down on me it seems as if every process has slowed down since downloading this last update of 11.1.4, any solutions? Because it shut down in the middle of a test twice now, saying keyboard issue.
What you describe sounds like a hardware issue. Unfortunately, you'll need to get that checked out by Apple. If you have an Apple Store near you, make an appointment with the Genius Bar and take the machine in for evaluation.

This last update forced my 83 year old mother to enter a passcode. She doesnt have one. This is her only computer. Now what Apple? The
I'm still not fully convinced that the system is asking for a previously entered passcode, rather than to set it up. If the passcode was set up before, your mother might not remember what the passcode was, but wouldn't she remember that she did set up something? What happens if she clicks on the Cancel button/word?
After each iOS upgrade you do have to re-enter the passcode. That's why you had to enter it.
My sympathies are with you. I know from personal experience how difficult it is to troubleshoot problems remotely, especially with someone who's not familiar with the proper terminology. Is it possible and reasonable for your mother to go to the Apple Genius alone?
IF she did indeed set up a password and can't remember it, there's a procedure that will reset the iPhone, but it's not pretty in terms of preserving data on the iPhone if it hadn't been backed up to iTunes or iCloud. These links might be of assistance:
