Tried all the wi-fi suggestions on this board so far an no luck
I have the same issue alot of people are having. I use WPA encryption with a Netgear WPN824 wireless router and my IPT can see my network but cannot connect no matter what I try. I have scoured this discussion board and tried everything suggested.
1) Manually entering all the ip/subnet/router addresses etc.
2) Changing encryptions, even disabling temporarily. It still wouldn't connect even with no security.
3) Changing the router broadcast channel. No luck.
4) Put my IPT's MAC address into the router
1) Yes I am entering my password correctly. The letters it has are all lowercase so no need to fiddle with the shift key on the keypad.
One thing to note, before I tried what has turned out to be 6+ hours of monkeying around with this, there was no info entered when I pressed the > symbol next to my network name. Other people were saying this info was filled in for them. I have a TiVo that connects wirelessly with no problems and all the same information.
I am so frustrated at this point. Thank you anyone for any help you can give.

I have been pinning websites as App Tabs on my mac book pro. However, whenever I exit firefox and reopen it next time, my tabs will be gone (even though I had pinned it and did not close it out). I tried all the trouble shooting suggestions on configuring the preferences but to no avail. Any suggestions on what my problem is?
well mine is remembering history but this happens even when im in the middle of something and a tab will open that's blank!! really really drives me nuts!! and the remember isn't the problem it does this after awhile, could it be faster fox browser add-on? or another add-on that's making it do it?

After updating to iOS 6 my battery life of iPad 2 has reduced drastically..plz help..have tried all the standard solutions suggested in forums but doesn't help
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.
First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative. -
I'm unable to connect my iphone 5s to the Dlink router. I tried all the apple support suggestions. But doesn't work. Please let me know.
I'm having this problem now with my 2 weeks old iPhone 6+. in the beginning everything going great and managed to connect every wifi around me. Then suddenly 1 week ago, All the wifi from my office, home, hotel and coffee house saying either incorrect password or can't join the wifi. But when i switch on my hotspot from my iPhone 5 it can be connect. i also try with my friend iPhone hotspot. So is it because of hardware problem or software problem. And i just restore my iPhone6+ and still can't connect to wifi and manage to join hotspot (also wifi right?) regret as all my downloaded stuff vanish and now can't download back using wifi.....
Thanks for assisting -
Every time I try to install Adobe Reader, I get error message "object already installed". Tried all the fixes and suggestions. I need help.
If you haved tried all the fixes and suggestions, there is not much to add. Just in case: did you really try using this tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html to first eliminate all traces of Reader, and then use the full offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/?

I turned it off manual then restarted it only to get the beach ball of doom. I tried all the different reboots suggested in the manual without success. I'm not tech savvy so would appreciate very clear instructions if you have a suggestion that doesn't show up in Apple's as to how to get rid of the beach ball. Many thanks. Jude
Jude,
You can do a couple of things. The first thing I'd try is restarting in Safe Mode. To do that when you hear the startup tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar appear. Let it fully boot, while you're in Safe Mode open Disk Utility(Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility) and Repair Disk Permissions. While you're in Disk Utility also run Repair Disk. After completing the 2 DU actions then restart normally to test the machine. -
Earlier today, I was bookmarking things and everything was working perfectly fine. I got back on firefox later, and i noticed all my bookmarks were gone. I tried bookmarking other pages and it didnt work! I WANT MY BOOKMARKS BACK AND I WANT TO BE ABLE TO BOOKMARK AGAIN! Your "helping" pages are no freaking help!!
What have you tried?
Have you gone through all the options in the [[lost bookmarks]] article? It is possible that the file that stores bookmarks is damaged, see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite Locked or damaged places.sqlite - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] -
iOS 5.1.1 Software Update - just tried to update and it didn't work! Got to the final stages and was presented with error 1602! My screen now has the frozen image of the itunes logo and usb thing. Happened once before - funnily enough when doing an update back in November - I had to visit an Apple store to have the phone restored. Would appreciate any advice as I would like to avoid another trip to the apple store.
found the real problem.
In my laptop where it couldn't detect the iphone and ipad, this folder is missing:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
The ipad was wrongly using a microsoft driver.
I found the correct drivers in:
C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\usbaapl64.inf_amd64_neutral_c111a aecb61e9a2b
Copy the contents to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
After that, I had to update the driver for Ipad in device manager.
Ipad was found under: "Removable Devices", as a storage device.
Once that is fixed, itunes can detect ipad, and I can restore it.
Apple should really look into ensuring that folder doesn't go missing during itunes update process. -
I'M USING IE8, XP (SP3). I've cleared caches,cookies,on flash,mozilla and IE8. Iran virus scans, maleware scans,and registry cleaners, but nothing seems to fix the problem. all of my program, apps. and updates are current.
This is probably a problem with your firefox profile. Try running firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]. If you want a clean start, you might want to make a new [[Managing Profiles|profile]].

My computer and itunes app do not see my iphone when I plug it into either USB port on the computer. The cable works because I can hear the iphone start charging off the computer. But there is no indication of the device in itunes or on my hard drive device list. Any ideas?
Have no idea what you mean by "basic stuff". Try EVERYTHING in this support article:
iPhone: Not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X -
i bought a iphone yesterday and its not showing up on itunes after doing everything apple said. i found the iphone on the pc its just that it windows XP think its a camera. please help!
Its a normal behavior that your OS find your iPhone as a camera because it is; that's the way to copy the pictures you took with your iPhone.
Do you actually open iTunes and look at the left side column in the Devices section for the sync options? -
I have tried all the steps as suggested by the community partners i.e. uninstall/reinstall itunes (number of times). If I plug my ipad 2 on my office PC which has itunes, it is recognised immediately. My lap top does not show 'NEW HARDWARE FOUND" as iPad. It just says new hardware found and shows scanner and camera hardware recognised. In my opinion there could be programme file which is having conflict with ipad 2 recognisation. I am surprised to find that APPLE has not yet come out with straightforward steps for stting up procedures to avoid this recognition issue. It is waste of time and causing lot of aggravation among iPad 2 purchasers.
Sounds like it could be your computer and not Apple. Sounds like some registry issues and/or other underlying problems.

TS3899 Can't send email, tried all the trouble shooting
Anybody have any idea why mail suddenly can't be sent?
Even though you tried "all the troubleshooting" I will offer this just in case. Sometimes settings can get corrupted.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional. -
