TS1398 I work at a hospital that has free wifi. My ipad mini connected just fine when I first bought it but now it displays unable to connect? What changed? Please help! My mini still connects at home, just not at work.

My Ipad Mini will no longer connect to the wifi at work. It did when I first got it but now it just displays unable to connect. What gives? I work at a hospital and the wifi is not password protected and my mini connects fine at home. Please help!

Some of these won't apply to your situation.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My new (2 months old) 5s fingerprint recognition sensor does not work. It worked well when I first got it but now to get it to work I have to redo my fingerprints every few days, which completely negates the convenience and cost of the phone.

My new (2 months old) 5s fingerprint recognition sensor does not work. It worked well when I first got it but now to get it to work I have to redo my fingerprints every few days, which completely negates the convenience and cost of the phone. I have tried all the tips and they help a little but it always stops working and I have to redo my fingerprints. Does Apple read these comments? Is there an app that might help?

I also have iPhone 5s on day one and it's working since. When it's not registering, I just clean the Home button and it works straight away.
Did you try when registering fingerprint using all angles? It should learn the more you use it.
Did you clean the sensor with a soft cloth?

I installed Snow Leopard when it first came out but now my mac says it has os x 10.5.x. Where did snow leopard go?

I installed Snow Leopard when it first came out but now my mac says it has os x 10.5.x. Where did snow leopard go?

Hi, after a little more looking, I think your response might lead me to a solution. It looks like the Snow Leopard install package is on my MacBook Pro hard drive but apparently something isn't right because I'm still running 10.5. I found something called 10.6 Install Package or something like that and clicked on it. It asked me where I wanted to install it and I said on the MacBook Pro hard drive in a new folder called Snow Leopard. It told me the installation was successful. I then restarted the computer but it is still using 10.5. Any suggestions on what to do now?

I need to get photos off a water damaged iPhone 3GS. Can I take out the component that has the photos (is this the main board?) and put it into another of the same phone to retrieve the photos? Please help

I need to get photos off a water damaged iPhone 3GS. It spent time underwater, saltwater. I let it dry for a week, turned it on, the apple symbol came on, then it died. I need to retrieve my photos off it. Can I take out the component that has the photos (is this the main board?) and put it into another of the same phone to retrieve the photos? Please help

You're talking about the logic board. The two most likely things to get toasted, with water damage, are the battery(it shorts out), & the logic board. The worst water damage would be salt water. I'm afraid your logic board is toast.

My macbook pro would play a CD when I first got it, but now it will not.

When I first got my MacBook Pro it would play my CDs and DVDs. Now it will not. I am very frustrated because when you pay for an Apple product you expect it to do the basic things it is supposed to do!
Why will it not play CDs now? I have had this macbook only about 6 months.

Just unlocked Blackberry Curve 8520 with online code, now cannot make calls or send sms! PLEASE HELP!

Hi,
I unlocked my phone about an hour ago using a legitimate unlock code from unlocks.co.uk. I entered the code and it seemed to work fine and now my network shows up as Vodafone uk (I have unlocked it from T-Mobile)
It looks as though it is unlocked and I have checked the connections - I have signal and it says I am connected to the vodafone network, however, I cannot make any calls or send texts! If I try to call a number I get the call failed signed and the failed call dial tone. I tried to send a text but it didn't work - the text now has a red X and says 'unidentified subscriber'. I know this is a fault with my phone as the people I have tried to text and call have no problems with their phones/networks.
Please somebody help me! I have no idea what to do! I contacted the unlocking company and they say if I'm sure the sim I'm inserting is active (which I am) then it is likely my phone has been blacklisted, but I dont think it has. I bought it as a pay as you go handset from Argos just a week ago and it's been working fine until then.
I put my old t-mobile sim back in and it seems to work - does this mean it hasn't been unlocked successfully or not?
Many thanks

Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
Then try your Vodafone SIM again.

My iPad 2 speakers won't work anymore and neither do my headphones. The sound used to come out of my speaker scratchy, but now I have zero sound either way. Please help me.

So my speakers and my headphones don't work. Neither give out sound. I had a crackle in the sound from the speakers about three weeks ago and the headphones worked. Now maybe a week or two ago I have lost all sound. Please help

You may have dust or a small object in your headphone jack. You can purchase cans of air from computing stores that can clear any dust that may be causing the problem. If that doesn't work then a larger object may have damaged part of the jack at which point it would be advised to visit your local Genius Bar and see what repairs they can offer. Try not to insert any other objects especially ones with sharp edges into the jack as this often creates further damage. Hope everything is working again soon.

AirPrint laser printer for home that has "n" wifi capabilities

Looking for an AirPrint laser printer for home that has "n" wifi capabilities. Was shocked to findout that most lasers don't do "N" wifi or high speed networking yet. Am seriously considering the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w printer, but just found out it is a nightmare to setup. Thought I could run it by USB port off my Timecapsule… Is anyone doing that? Can it do that? Is there a better alternative?

Hi Scott,
You can also setup the P1102w without the USB cable. What you need to do is to connect the printer via ad-hoc to your iPad first. With the default network settings the printer has its own SSID that you can select from the WiFi list on your iPad. Then open Safari and go into the EWS - either by the printers IP or host name. There you go to Network - Wireless and make the settings for your infrastructure network.
However, both Laserjets will need a FW update that you install from a Mac or PC, so you may already use the install steps there to connect your printer to the network.
Regards,
Mandy

How will find my Iphone work on an Iphone that has no service

How will find my Iphone work on an Iphone that has no service and it locked so if someone found it they would not be able to connect it to a wifi source.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
Great link giving you peace of mind that at least they will not be able to use it with out your AppleID and Password.
According to the "Lost Mode" anytime the device is turned back on or able to receive a signal the phone will lock itself down and it's position will be updated to show its last known location.

My transparency does not work on my iPhone and I was wondering how I fix that? It worked when I first downloaded ios7 but not now.

Hello wilsontot_too,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing on your iPhone. It sounds like you are not noticing transparency on your iPhone. It may be that you have "Increase Contrast" turned on in your iPhone settings.
I recommend verifying that Increase Contrast is turned off in Settings>General>Accessibility.

My husband just got an iphone. I've had mine for a while. We use the same email address so I though we could use the same apple id and password. But now it appears everything on my phone also shows up on his phone and vis versa, even "Notes." Not good.

I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.

I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.

You have the iPhone 3GS, not the 3G. The last update to support the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
iOS 4.3.3 includes bug fixes etc. There is nothing really special about this update that wasn't introduced in iOS 4.3. iOS 5 is the one to wait for - it will be released in the Autumn/Fall and includes over '200' new features/improvements.
The additional text tines and ringtones were an iPhone 4-only feature.

Try doing it on your computer with iTunes and then sync to your iPad to see if it clears the problem.

I just got a new ipod 5 and when I plugged in the charging cord that came with it, it says it is not supported, and may not charge. It worked the first few times, but now it won't charge at all.

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. The cable as well as the iPod, is covered by the warranty.
