  • TS1702 My millionaire and friends game won't load onto my iPad or iPhone 5? It was working in the beginning but now it won't even load. I have restarted my device & deleted and reinstalled the app several times and it still won't load? Please help

    Millionaire and friends game not loading! Please help! I have tried restarting the device & deleting the app and trying to reload but nothing works? I also tried to email the creators of the app but the email address for tech support bounced back to me so its obviously not a good email??

    I tried to email the developer (Canada) but the email for technical support is not a good email. My email got returned to me undeliverable? Not sure what to do next? I also want to get the game going again cause I made purchases to get more coins to play the game & now I can't even use it? Very frustrating!!!

  • HT201363 Hello, I have my pass word, I have my Apple ID, but itunes think I am buying a song for the first time and is asking me 2 security questions, please help, what should i do?

    I cannot remember the answeres to my security questions, please help.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Trying to change itunes country, get an error saying I cannot do it until I have redeemed my 5 credits, can't figure out how to get rid of the credits...Help?

    how do I spend song credits? Can't figure it out...trying to change store from US to other country and it won't let me do it until I've spent my credits but I can't figure out what kind of credits they are or how to use them - my profile simply says "5 credits"....Aaaaarghhhhhh...... Help?

    Hey rcstangeland,
    Thanks for the question. Free song credits are redeemed first when purchasing a song from the iTunes Store:
    iTunes Store: How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    When you buy individual songs from the iTunes Store:
    - Free song credits are redeemed first.
    - If you have no free song credits, gift certificate, prepaid card, and allowance credits are used next.
    - If your gift certificate, prepaid card, and/or allowance credit is less than the total cost of the purchase, your credit card is billed for the remaining balance.
    - If you have no free song credits or gift certificates, prepaid cards, or allowance credits, your credit card is billed for the songs you buy.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Synced phone for the first time, and all my contacts are gone. Please help

    I had to upgrade the iOS to 5. And all of the contacts are gone. Is there a way to recover them?

    How did you get the contacts loaded onto the iPhone in the first place?
    If you used iTunes that would imply the "source" of contacts was either on your computer (e.g. Outlook) or perhaps through a one-time upload from an e-mail service like GMail.  In either case, your contacts should (might) still be where they were when you originally put them onto your iPhone.
    If all your contacts were manually entered into the iPhone, then you're out of luck since they are not backed up, unless you set iCloud up to sync your contacts (in which case they'd still be in iCloud).

  • When i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:

    when i install or reinstall the new itunes i get an error message that says:
    apple application support was no found.
    apple application support is required to run ituneshelper. please uninstall itunes, then install itunes again.
    error 2
    thats all it says ive tried to reinstall uninstall ive done all that and it wont work. i use windows 7
    please help me!!

    Yeah, this is absolutely ********. I have t5he same message, only i just started getting it when my Iphone4 went in to recovery mode.
    I uninstalled itunes, downloaded the lates itunes just now, reinstalled it and got the same message.
    So, i did some more google research, and saw a recommendation that rather than installing itunes, one should unpack it with win zip, or win rar.
    I did this, and even though I just downloaded the apple software today, when i try installing application support, i gwt a message saying A LATER VERSION OF APPLE APPLICATION SUPPORT IS ALREADY INSTALLED.. go figure! Du-uh!
    So, i uninstalled the new itunes, went - control panel-programs- and dis a search for apple application support, found it and deleted it too.
    Resinstalled itunes and again the same message.
    unistalled everything again, tried installing application support first, then itunes, and now I get a message saying ITUNES WAS NOT ISNATLLED CORRECTLY!
    I am so annoyed right now, that if my puter was a person, I would be in Jail!

  • I have a 4th generation iPod nano 4th and when I turn it on, the screen won't progress passed the main screen with the Apple logo. What should I do?

    I have a 4th generation 8GB iPod nano and it will not progress past the blank screen with the white apple logo on it. I have charged it fully and tried to restart it by pressing and holding the menu buttons for 3-7 seconds. The devices screen will turn off and then, after a couple of seconds, the screen with the Apple logo will appear again. This screen will remain lit until the iPod runs out of battery again. I have tried plugging it into my Macbook Pro. I have the newest versions of iTunes software and OS X Mavericks. The computer will not recognize the iPod and the device will not show up in the computers list of devices. I looked up the troubleshooting for the device and found out how to put the device into disk mode. I followed the intructions but the iPod would not go into disk mode. The screen still displayed the Apple logo and would not set into disk mode. I fear that I have run out of options. I have come to this forum in hopes that I can still salvage my device. If there is anything I can do, please loet me know so I can try it. If not, I am affraid I will have to go to an Apple store of authorized retailer and have it repaired or replaced.

    Try manually connecting the device to your PC in Disk Mode and then restoring it iTunes.
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    Putting iPod devices with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode
    If necessary, verify that your iPod has a Click Wheel.
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it is charged.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will should say "Do not disconnect".
    If you are having difficulty putting your iPod into Disk Mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center. If you are still unable to put your iPod into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.

  • I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. Where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

    I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. My pc didn't create a backup before updating software so I can't revert back to ios 4.3.5 from there, where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

    I tried just about everything and finally brought my Ipod touch to the apple store.  The tech installed ios 4.3.5 but still no WIFI.  He recommended a $149 exchange - not really a bad deal with a new battery and 90 day warranty, but I thought I'd try again.
    The "solution" was bizarre.  On YouTube was a fix involving taking the motherboard out and heating the wifi components with a heat gun.
    I did not like that idea, but another involved turning it off, putting it in the freezer for five minutes and restarting.  It worked!  I must admit the fix does not work reliably, so I may still go for the exchange.  Still, I am now convinced that it is a hardware problem.    i remember back in the old days, TV repairmen sprayed a suspected bad resistor with Freon.  The chilled component would work long enough to identify what needed replacement.  Perhaps something similar is happening here.
    For anyone wanting to try this, I found it more convenient to place the back of my ipod on a  frozen cold pack until the wifi is restored.  It seems to happen when condensation forms on the face.  I used a towel to wipe off the moisture so as not to add to the problem.

  • I have a 4th generation ipod classic (click wheel) and it's giving me a sad ipod error as well as not mounting in itunes... I hear a clicking inside when it is connected to power but nothing is working. Help!

    I have a 4th generation ipod classic (click wheel) and it's giving me a sad ipod error as well as not mounting in itunes... I hear a clicking inside when it is connected to power but nothing is working. Help!

    You won't believe this but a friend of mine (who happens to be an Apple Genius) told me to put a towel or cloth on a sturdy countertop (I know this may sound weird) but hold the selct button (in the center) and menu part of the wheel at the same time until an Apple logo comes up on the screen and then quickly turn the ipod on it's side and wack it on the counter where the towel is so as not to damage anything cosmetically. It seems the clicking is the hard drive reader is stuck and this dislodges it. Mine works now (no clicking) and all seems to be well again. Who knew?
