  • Why do I see: iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn't connected to the Internet.  IE9 works fine but iTunes does not connect to the store.

    I have tried 4 days to get iTunes 10.4 working on my Win7 x64 machine.  I purchased a new iPhone4 and after syncing it the first time, I can't connect to the iTunes store.
    When I try to run iTunes Help, I get this message "iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn’t connected to the Internet."  However IE9 and Google Chrome run as always...... no connection problems.
    I have already uninstalled IE9 x64 and iTunes 10.4 x64 and reinstalled but still the same.  I followed all the instructions I could find about firewalls, ports, SSL etc.
    Diagnostice gives me this information:

    I did step 2 in the "iDVD:  Setting Encoding preferences" but my computer isn't giving me the pop-up in step 3 so i can't push an OK button in regards to the message.  I waited 15+ hours for it to burn and it sent me to this page.  I have tried to change the encoding settings again, and it adjusts the capacity but no message pop-up appears.

    You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
    (1) Page Info > Permissions tab
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
    (2) about:permissions
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
    Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
    Any luck?

    No it is not.  iPhones, like all cell phones are not locked to countries.  They are locked to carriers.
    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.  Contact the carrier.

  • "Your computer isn't connected to the internet"

    I hope I can make this succinct....
    Earlier today, Airport suddenly quit working. I couldn't access the internet (getting message "your computer isn't connected to the internet") and my email wouldn't work. I restarted the computer and it worked fine, for awhile. Then the same problem arose.
    I ran the network diagnostics. When i started, all Network Status lights were red (Airport, Airport settings, Network settings, ISP, Internet, Server all said "failed".)
    I selected the location "automatic" and then chose network port configuration "Airport". That made the airport light turn green, but the rest remained red.
    It asked me which airport network to join and i picked the appropriate one. I know the network is working because I'm using it on a separate computer to type and send this. The airport light remained green and the rest remained red.
    It asked if I use PPPoE or DHCP. Since I've always used DHCP in the past, I presume that continues to be the case. So I chose DHCP.
    It asked if I use a cable modem or DSL. I said yes, but it didn't need to be reset.
    The first couple times I tried this diagnostic, the ISP button would turn yellow in the beginning and later a pop up would showup saying "yor network settings have changed" or something to that effect.
    Any idea what might be causing this and/or how to solve it? I presume a network setting just got messed up but I have no idea what it might be.

    Hi, was this after the dreaded last Security update or two?
    Two things to try right now...
    Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Then Apply. These are safer/faster than most ISP's NDS numbers, and have been patched against DNS poisoning.

  • I keep getting a message about a bot running on my phone while trying to use the internet or Pinterest.  What is this?

    When using my phone off of WIFI I get warnings that there is a bot running on my phone (this does happen occasionally while connected to my WIFI).  This happens in safari and in Pinterest.  What does this mean, I can not search or post in Pinterest. 

        Let's make sure your Smartphone stays smart and keeps your apps working, Jennifer! Can you tell me exactly what it shown about the bot? Did this start after installing any recent applications or updates? Please try a soft reset by holding the Power and Home keys until device restarts.
    Thank you,

    i cant log on to or use my itunes at all because it tells me that i havent verified my password and every time i click resend verification email and nothing comes to my email.
    i dont know what to do now,  i have just tried to reset my password online and it said that it worked, but when i go on itunes there is still nothing working...

    IMO a 4 year old laptop is too dated to run the new OS X bloated versions, it should have stuck with 10.6.8 max, but it's likely too late to go back now as you have too many files and programs in the later OS X versions.
    However if you don't care and have basic type files that are neutral state file formats, like they will work on any Mac/PC or Linux machine (like pictures, music files etc) then you might be interested in going back to Snow Leopard for performance.

  • I bought an iPhone 5 yesterday and every time I try to restore my iPhone, I get error 21. I've tried numerous times and have tried things on the internet but still no luck. I have the latest iTunes update, anyone have any suggestions?

    Please help!

    Or the OP could try actually following Apple's documentation for troubleshooting and solving this very simple problem instead of uninstalling, reinstalling, installing old versions of software, etc...
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • When I delete an email on my phone it deletes it from my computer.  I have followed the instructions but it still happens.  How can I stop this?

    How can I stop my emails from being deleted on my MacPro automatically when I delete them from my iphone 4?

    Contact the email provider.  That sounds like normal behavior for most IMAP email accounts.

    I am having troubles, when I open LR I get a message that there is an error and it will try to fix the error next time it opens. LR closes on it's own, I reopen it and get that same message next time it opens, and this is going on and on where I can not use LR, any suggestions? If I click on a different set of photos in the libary before I get that message I might or might not get the message next time it oipens, but I still can not get to those photos, and it is not just one or two but most of my photos. HELP!!!!
    Thanks

    The first thing I would suggest is for you to go to the folder containing your catalog, using your system browser. There will be a folder that has the extension .lrdata. Delete that folder, and then try to start Lightroom. If that doesn't work, replace your catalog with your most recent backup.
