Trying to setup facebook account on new phone

I just had my Droid 2 delivered this morning (yeah!!), activated it and am now trying to setup my facebook account on my new phone. Every time I try and do so an error message pops up saying "Internal service error occurred. Pleas try again." Any ideas on what is going on because it's driving me up the wall. Thanks.

I would recommend testing the data connection first to ensure service is working properly. I have listed some steps below:
Step 1. Ensure you have 3G indicator (and when accessing data, both arrows highlight/flash white
Step 2. Ensure that the network settings are enabled. *Instructions below:
Enable Data – Select Menu > Select Settings > Select Data Manager > Select Data Delivery > Ensure all three are checked marked green (Background Data, Data Roaming, and Data Enabled). ***Please note*** Data roaming charges will only apply if you are outside of the United States.
Ensure Mobile Network is Automatic – Select Menu > Select Settings > Select Wireless & Networks > Select Mobile networks > Select System select > Check automatic
Ensure Wifi is off, and Airplane mode is off:
Wifi - Select Menu > Select Settings > Select Wireless & Networks > uncheck Wifi (if checked)
Airplane mode - Network is Automatic – Select Menu > Select Settings > Select Wireless & Networks > uncheck Airplane mode (if checked)
***Test the browser, to also ensure you are getting data connection.
Step 3. Perform a soft reset – Turn off the device and take the battery out of the back. Once removed, place the battery back into the device and power it back on.
Step 4. Try to create a new Facebook account, or login is you have an existing one.
Step 5. If the steps above do not work, I would recommend creating a Facebook account on the Facebook website (using your Mac/PC). Once created, try to log in as an existing user on the device.
Step 6. Final step: If all of the above did not work, try hard resetting the device. ***Please Note*** Performing a hard reset will remove ALL data including the Google account, system data, application data, application settings, and downloaded applications. Only perform this reset if absolutely necessary.
Performing a Hard reset article below:
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=31308
Once the hard reset is complete, you will have to go through the initial setup information once again. When you complete the initial setup, test the data connection and try to create the Facebook account once again.
I hope this information helps!

Trying to add itunes account for new phone, sharing existing music folder

My wife's phone is already linked to the admin user account on my imac.
I have created another account to use for linking my own iphone 4 to.
I have tried the directions I have found so far for making the folder of our current music available to the new account: I moved the itunes media folder to the public folder, and went to the advanced setting in itunes in both the original account and in the new account, and pointed itunes to the newly located folder - music only shows in the original account. Going to itunes with the new account doesn't let me see any of our existing music.
I have not yet added my iphone to the new account. Will doing so help itunes set itself up?

You can have more than one account authorised on the same iTunes on your computer, but having/using just the one account us usually the best approach.
If you created a new iTunes account then you can log out of it on the iPad by tapping on it in Settings > Store and then log in with the old account. If you bought / downloaded any content with that new account then that content will be tied to that account and it can't be copied or transferred to a different one - so if you want to keep that content you will need to remember the account name and password in order to download any app updates to its purchases and in case you ever need to re-authorise the account again.
As long as you old iTunes account is authorised on the computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) that you connect the iPad to (and your content is on your computer), you should be able to sync content from that account to the iPad.

I am trying to setup iCloud account and when I login I see a popup. The Maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone. Pls, help me fix it. What other accounts? Thanks

Then you'll have to use another iOS device or Mac running OS X Lion or higher to create a new account for you to use on your phone. If you don't have one, perhaps a friend would allow you to create and account on their device (note: this will use one of their three maximum accounts). To do this, they would need to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which will delete the account from their device but not from iCloud), then allow you to sign back in with your ID to create the new account. Then tap Delete Account to delete the new account from their device, and finally, sign back in with their iCloud ID to restore their iCloud account to their device. Then you can sign in with your ID on your phone in Settings>iCloud and use the new account.

Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

Trying to setup RAID 1 with new SATA drives on xserve 2009 model

Trying to setup RAID 1 with new SATA drives on xserve 2009 model
I have an Xserve rack mount model Xserve 2.26 Quad Core (EMC# 2279) with an Apple RAID card, 24GB RAM (running 10.9 Server software)
Purchased two Western Digital 1TB SATA III 7200 RPM 64MB Cache Black WD1003FZEX drives
It came with three 160GB SATA drives. I'm leaving one of the original 160GB drives for the OS, but I want to replace the 2 other drives and set it up with RAID 1 (mirrored). I bought 2 brand new Western Digital 1TB SATA drives and formatted them on another Mac through Disk Utility with Mac OS Extended (Journaled) formatting. I then placed the new drives in the Xserve and booted it up. After I login it immediately gives me 2 error windows saying...
"Apple RAID Card
The Apple RAID Card installed in your system requires your attention."
It has two buttons underneath this message allowing me to either select 'Ignore' or 'Open RAID Utility'
I've tried to RAID the drives the Disk Utility and through the RAID Utility with no success.
I have both drives mounted on the desktop, as separate drives, but I really need to set these up as a RAID 1.
I've been reading other forums, where others have been able to get this to work by using a jumper on certain pins (5 & 6)of the drive to back down the transfer rate to 1.5 Gb per second. I tried that and it didn't work for me. Maybe I used the wrong pins -- I just don't know. I'm also wondering if there is some Apple firmware that is required on these drives? I'm asking for help from anyone who has gone through this same issue. Thanks in advance.

UPDATE -- I had an issue with the RAID card battery, it was dead and I have since replaced it. But I am still unable to setup the RAID 1 drive configuration. Does anyone know if it has something to do with the faster transfer rates on these new drives. Maybe they need to be clocked down with certain jumper settings on these Western Digital drives? Or am I fighting a losing battle because these drives don't have Apple firmware? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

When trying to add Facebook account to my iPhoto 11 (9.3.1) I get this error message "Facebook didn't recognize your email password combination". Email and passwords are correct. Problems are even with veryfication code which I am asked to use instead of password.

In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it

Tried to migrate account to new phone w/o success

I set up Sync on my new phone using the old one. New phone still does not have bookmarks, etc. Tried removing the sync info and going through set up a new device a couple of times, but that did not work either.

Migrating bookmarks with sync with two android devices can be done with the steps below:
# Go to Settings > Sync > + add account
# Select Firefox Sync account
# Once verified, tap "Sync Now"
# or if its a new account add the deprecated firefox account and choose advanced setup. [[How do I add a device to Firefox Sync?]]
In order to manage what to sync in about:accounts in the newer version of sync, however this is not available for the old sync. [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

Trying to update my account with new email address.

My original account details I put in the wrong (non existent) email address.
Problem is appears I have since already setup a new account with new email address from my iphone.
Now verification emails are being sent to non existnet email address and I can't change itunes account on laptop.

Did you update your old iTunes account or create a new one ? If you updated the old one then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then you will need to continue to use the old account to download updates to its apps (or to redownload its content) - content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it and it can't be transferred to a different account.

Transfer iTunes accounts to new phone

I have a new iPhone 4s that I acquired from a family member. I cannot use my iCloud account for my new phone because it is associated with another account. I also would like to use my present iTunes account with this phone but cannot do it.
Please help.

Hey jinasapple88,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your family member has not set the phone to factory settings before giving it to you. If possible, I would contact your family member and ask them to follow these steps:

Can't delete old iCloud account from new phone

Have trouble deleting old iCloud account from my new phone keep getting a message saying can not delete cause in use

iCloud accounts can be deleted in Mail, Contacts and Calenders in System Preferences from the Apple sign menu on your Host or Main mac.
I had heaps of trouble with this - i fixed it by going back to my host imac and clicked on apple sign - system preferences - then under the Internet and Wireless heading clicked on Mail, Contacts & Calenders. from there you can select iCloud amongst your other stuff in the left window - delete the old one by hitting the (minus) - sign down the bottom after selecting iCloud. Keep your calenders and contacts on your mac when asked.
Once you've deleted the old one and its gone from the window reselect iCloud from the right window of options. Use your new apple ID (current e-mail) to set this one up.
Once you sync all your devices it should all be good.
Took me ages to work this out but minutes to fix once I had.
hope this helps

Trying to setup mail account

I am trying to setup my email account in the mail program. I have my mobile me email working in there properly, but my charter email is not getting setup correctly. Everytime I go to set it up, I get a message stating that "Mail cannot send my password securely to the server", and asks to continue or setup manually. I've tried both ways several times, and it never works. I've even contacted my ISP, and they walked me through the whole setup, and say its a problem with my computer settings. I know my password is correct, and have even reset it to be sure. I can get into my email account just fine on the online webpage and on my iPhone.
I'm guessing there is a security setting somewhere i'm not aware of.... Please help..

HELP! i was trying to get pics from my newer phone onto my computer for a project. i accidentally restored my old iphone and lost all the pictures, texts, from my newer one. can this be fixed? please say yes :(

please someone help me!

You need to check if a back up was made of your new phone when the content that has now gone missing was on their.
Also if you used iCloud you could check if there was a back up made on there and it should have pictures from camera roll if they were on there when the back up was made. Also you could check photostream if you used it and see if the photos are on there aswel.
hope this helps

Lost itunes and apps from trying to restore them on a new phone!

Hi guys!
Lost all my itunes and apps from trying to put all my stuff onto a new iphne but on itunes it said i had to create an account for the newphone and now it has written over all my data fro my previous phone, on mypurchase history all my itunes are there but there is nooptions which can enable me to download themonto my newphone? any help guys?

You could try iPhone Backup Extractor to see if it would read the backup. If so, it would allow you to extract some of your data. (If probably won't read it but you could download the trial version first just to see.) If not, then there's nothing you can do.

Trying to setup email account - getting "server connection failed"

I'm hoping someone out there can help me setup a POP account on my iphone. My host where the email account is based says it supports POP and/or IMAP, but I've tried to create a new account on the iphone with both methods and get the same message each time. The error says:
Server Connection Failed
The certificate for [email protected] may be invalid.
I just setup the same email account in my microsoft outlook and it works fine. Any thoughts???

Same problem here. We are running Exchange 2007 at my school and all I want is to get my mail sent to my iphone. I have no need to sync my iphone to my school computer.
