TS1398 this didn't help me at all. out of the clear clue my iPad can't even scan for wireless networks. even when I type in my home wireless network name. my phone can connect to it but for whatever reason my iPad won't. nothing I've tried works. I'm ****

believe me I've tried EVERTHING and my iPad still 'can't scan for wireless networks'. it happened all of a sudden and is really really frustrating. I really don't want to have to drive 40 minutes to the nearest 'genius bar'. I'm about ready to break this thing over my knee. I've even tried the frig trick. it worked for about 30 seconds. and then? nothing. any non sarcastic suggestions?

  • HT2311 this didn't help me at all.  I am unable to download the updated version of itunes because it says I need the Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later.  I have gone to my updates and my computer says that all of my updates are current.  Please help me figure this

    I need to know what it is I need to do to get this done so I can download the new itunes.  Because as it is I am unable to connect my iphone to my itunes account

    You need to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6, which requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM. Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu to check your Mac's CPU and amount of installed RAM.

  • I, too, keeping getting a pop up when in Safari that is from "tap-security.rubicon....  I saw the suggestion to turn off all extensions, but this didn't help.  What next can be done?

    I read that several other people have been bothered by a drop down message talking about a bad certificate and perhaps non secure site when working in Safari.  I, too, keeping getting this pop up when in Safari that is from "tap-security.rubicon....  I saw the suggestion to turn off all extensions, but this didn't help.  What next can be done?

    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
    If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide, AdwareMedic, or Remove unwanted adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac - Apple Support.
    Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.

    Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
    Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

  • I have unlocked my iPhone 3G with Vodafone via iTunes, but now the downloaded apps crash immediately when opened. I've tried a Restore, but this didn't help. I've also tried removing all apps and re-installing them, but they still don't work. Any ideas?

    yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
    With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
    open itunes on my computer
    click on my device on the left
    go to the device summary
    click restore
    it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
    then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
    then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
    Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

  • TS3274 My iPad shuts down frequently while I am using it.  I took it to the Apple Store & they cleared it out and I reloaded the Apps and this didn't help.  What should I do?

    I am stumped as my iPad2 is frequently shutting down while I am using it.  I took it to the Apple Store where they cleared it and I reloaded the Apps, but this didn't help.  It is less than a year old.

    Another fellow Apple users suggested the following steps:
    1. Try a reset (probably unnecessary for you, but try it anyway)
    2. Clean docking port with clean tooth brush and alcohol (and not too much alcohol)
    3. Try another wall socket (preferably one that's not shared with other devices)
    4. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    5. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
    6. Make sure you're not using a USB hub (may not have enough of power)

    Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. If the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode, then Restore the Firmware. If not recognized, then hold both Home and Power Buttons until the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.

    Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

    Device experiences issues, locks up.
    I need to do a reset.
    How would I do that with a pass code lock in place?
    Wait until the battery dies?
    Apple's changes in iOS 7 are smarter.
    "Losing your iOS device feels lousy. Thankfully, Find My iPhone can help you get it back. But if it looks like that’s not going to happen, new security features in iOS 7 make it harder for anyone who’s not you to use or sell your device. Now turning off Find My iPhone or erasing your device requires your Apple ID and password. Find My iPhone can also continue to display a custom message, even after your device is erased. And your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can reactivate it. Which means your device is still your device. No matter where it is."

  • TS1398 How can I use both, Windows PC and iMac, when using WiFi?. It is either-or. What can I do?

    How can I use both, Windows PC and iMac, when using WiFi?. It is either-or. What can I do?

    What does this have to do with using an iPad?
    But yes, you should be able to connect to your home WiFi network with multiple computers and devices. In my house my wife, my daughter and I will all be using the WiFi Internet connection at the same time with our Laptops and I will also be using my iPad, my daughter uses her iPhone, and we have no issues at all.
    Is this what you want to know about?

  • I'm out of the US with my PowerMac G3 and plugged directly to a 220 volt current. It blew up! Is my computer fried or can it be repaired? I'd reaally appreciate anyone's help... thanks.

    Question:
    I'm out of the US with my PowerMac G3 and plugged directly to a 220 volt current. It blew up! Is my computer fried or can it be repaired? I'd reaally appreciate anyone's help... thanks.

    You didn't indicate whether you have a beige G3 or a Blue & White model.  In the case of the former, you'll be limited to buying/installing a used PSU, whereas a Blue & White G3 can use a modified PC ATX power supply.   You need to buy one with a fan at the rear of the PSU (or 2 fans - front & rear), to create the same direction of airflow as Apple's original.  An ATX PSU with a large fan on its underside is ideal for many PC builds, but not suited for use in a B&W G3.  It's recommended to use an ATX extension cable and modify it, instead of altering the wiring on the actual PSU (for warranty reasons).  You can read about the cable modification under the heading "ATX Power," on this "Accelerate Your Mac" page.

    Leave it alone for an hour and try the reset procedure again. Make sure you're using a genuine Apple charger & cable in a known good wall outlet. You can also try another cable if necessary, and make sure the charging area is clean and free of fluff & debris.

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.
