TS3988 Why does PhotoStream on my laptop keep shutting off?

Every time I turn on my laptop it says Photo Stream has encountered a problem and needs to shut down.
I have checked all of my settings, I have an iphone and ipad linked with icloud.
I've tried all of the troubleshooting steps and all of my email addresses and passwords are correct.

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Why does my iPhone 4S WiFi keeps shutting off?

This is the SECOND black iPhone 4S with problems with WiFi once the IOS 8 updated is downloaded. So frustrating!
Just after the IOS 8 update was available, I updated my black iPhone 4S. Soon after, I experienced a hot battery, screen freezes, and the screen toggle button for WiFi was grayed out. I called Apple support and they tried to help me. Very pleasant! After about 30 minutes, we concluded to reset the phone back to the original factory settings. This fix did not work and the Apple tech told me about purchasing a new replacement phone. Mind you, the 4S was less than two years old. Not long after, I went into my cellular carrier and they agreed to provide me with a new Apple iPhone 4S. The new one worked just fine for several months. Now, that 4S has begun freezing up, and the WiFi screen toggle is again grayed. Again, so frustrating!
I am mentioning the BLACK 4S only because my wife has the white 4S and it has not experienced any issues, even with the IOS 8 updates.
I need help please! This cannot be a coincidence that two separate black 4S phones each have an issue with the WiFi toggle.
Thank you,
Mike

Why does my Iomega and WD keep shutting down?

why does my Iomega and WD keep shutting down?

Was gonna reply "cause they are unremitting pieces of crap" (got two Iomega NAS boxes out for repairs as we speak), but I'll bite anyway....

Why does my 2009 27" imac keep shutting down?

why does my 2009 27" imac keep shutting down?

Could, also, be failing hard drive , power supply or logic board.
You may have to make an appointment and take your iMac in to Apple or Apple authorized repair center for diagnostics and a repair estimate.
If your iMac has a 1 TB internal hard drive, it maybe a Seagate drive and maybe eligible for free replacement under the Apple Seagate 1 TB internal hard drive replacement program.
If you can get your iMac running, you need to backup all of your data ASAP!. Either backup to optical disc, flash drive/s or purchase an external hard drive for backup. You can use a data cloning program such as CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper to make an exact copy of your iMac's internal hard drive.
You can check for eligibility for free hard drive replacement by inputting your iMac's serial number here.

Why does my generation 1 ipad keep dropping off

Why does my ipad keep dropping off. It is generation 1.

Dropping of of what - wifi? When you ask a question you need to provide enough info to get an answer.
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

Why does the "set automatically" button keep turning off in the my date & time area of my settings? When it is off I can not use facetime or imessages.keep during off on my iPad?

I wasn't able to use FaceTime or iMessages and found out it was because the "set auomatically" button was off under date & time in the settings area. Why does tha button turn off?

I wouldn't suggest going to get it yourself. You could find yourself in a situation you cannot get out of and could get hurt. Second, as stated before, it is more for misplaced or lost devices, not stolen devices. Many police agencies do not feel they have probable cause, just from your statement on a map location to justify attempts to recover the device. There have been many posts from others who have had devices stolen where the police will not confront someone based on that map location. I understand you are impacted by the theft, but this is what we have insurance for. To protect your content, from now on I suggest you put a passcode on the device. I hope you have changed all of the passwords for accounts you had on the device, since all of your content and data was accessible to the thief.

Why does my iPad email app keep shutting down?

I just purchased my iPad 2 3G last week, so I am a new iPad/Apple user. I really like the product and now wonder why I have stayed loyal to the Windows PC for so long. I'm still looking for some of those useful PC keys and keystroke shortcuts that I am so accustomed to, but I am adapting.
My iPad mail app keeps shutting down on me, whether I am typing a message or just reviewing/managing my mail. I use a bluetooth keyboard, so it is not a matter of me bumping the touch screen that is causing the app to close.
I have lost a lot of important business emails while composing them and eventually stopped using my iPad to compose email.
Is there a setting controlling this or is it a program glitch?
Thanks.

Pam-
It could be that the battery charge indicator is showing 100 percent when you actually have almost no charge left. In case that is the problem, leave your iPad connected to its wall charger overnight, and see if that helps.
One other thing to try, is to reset (reboot) your iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes solves mysterious problems.

Why does my HP DV6 laptop randomly shut down and stop charging?

I believe I've asked this question before. In August 2011 I got a laptop:
HP DV6
Product #:
LW260UA#ABD
Processor
AMD A8-3500M APU
My problem is that my laptop always has to sit in a certain position of it is going to be able to charge. Is this due to the port where the laptop is charging being faulty and loose? Also when I unplug the charger the laptop shuts off automatically within 1 minute. I then have to plug the laptop up to the charger again for it to work. Basically, I need to ALWAYS have my laptop plugged in for it to work. I tried doing the battery test on the laptop, but it said it's fine and has no bad cells. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi melkouas,
Thank you for your inquiry, I will try my best to help.
I grasp that you are experiencing a charge issue. You have tested the battery and it is OK, but you must be connected to power for it to work.
I have located documents I believe will help. Battery Does not Power Notebook or Hold a Charge
and Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 7).
Please let me know if you would like further assistance.

Why does my iPad ( 1st generation) keep shutting down

Does anyone have any ideas why my iPad (1st generation) keep closing down and what I need to do to rectify it?

Why does my i pad 2 keep shutting down or freezing?

I recieived my i pad 2 3 days ago and it keeps either freezing or shutting down in the middle of something. Why is this happening? Can I adjust something to stop this?

In addition to KP's advice there are a couple of other basic things to try.
Quitting open/running/recent apps
Quit apps by double tapping the home button to bring up the multitasking/recents tray at the bottom, hold down on any of the app icons in the tray until all the icons wiggle, then tap the minus sign in the corner to quit/close the apps.
Then restart the iPad
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button at the top of the iPad until the red slider appears, then slide to the right to power off. Turn the iPad on again by pressing the sleep button until the Apple logo appears. See if this helps.

Why does my mac mini server keep dropping off the network?

I have Verizon FiOS and use its router/wireless to connect all macbooks, macbook pros, etc. connect to each other and the snow leopard server, which runs the printers and time machine for one of the laptops. I'm not using any other heavy duty server apps. I just want the mac mini to stay on the network and do its job. Invariably when I go down stairs to the mac mini and ethernet to the router to share screen, I find some update that needs to be installed, which apparently is why the mac mini has gone on strike. I usually can see the problem when I go to connect to server and see the other macbooks, but not the mac mini. Then after much coaxing, I'm able to get the server back on line for a few days, until the next software update. The server is set to auto restart, but why is it balking at rejoining the network?
mac mini is running snow leopard, as are three of the four macbooks. router is an actiontec model. wireless network is WPA2 and mac mini is ethernet connected to the router.

I've just experienced this problem when using a Marantz SR4001 receiver between my Mac Mini and HD TV. I noticed that the problem didn't happen all the time and I have found a workaround solution.
The problem is not a fault, but seems to be caused by the receiver defaulting the HDMI video properties. It's an old unit so I'm thinking that 720p is a default resolution for the receiver.
I can make the problem happen if the receiver is turned on before the TV. Seems that without an output connection the receiver is telling the mac that it expects 720p.
If I turn on the TV before the receiver, the TV seems to tell the receiver that it is expecting 1080p 25fps and the receiver obliges and the Mac retains those display properties.
So it appears that the video output device dictates the output properties back to the receiver and the receiver in turn back to the Mac. In absence of an output device the receiver defaults to 720p.
Solution: Turn on the TV before the receiver.

Why does my WD2GO Pro app keep shutting down when I'm trying to access a file?

Ive invested in a WD My Book Live 2TB network hard drive and the associated WD2GO Pro app for the ipad.
This is great for tiny files (1-2mb) but anything over 20mb make the app shut down.
Why is the ipad shutting down? Cant it show a PDF over a certain size?
I know I can open it in other programmes (PDF by corporate smalltalk) but WD2GO provides the facility to create a URL link to the hard drive, thus allowing me to email this link to clients / printers etc.
The silly thing is that if Im really quick I can send the link but if Im longer than about 4 seconds the app shuts down.
Frustrating isnt the word!
Hope someone somewhere out there has an idea. Just please dont say that the new Ipad solves this problem as Ill be (forced) into upgrading lol

Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder then the com.apple.safari folder. Move the Cache.db file (might say ApplicationCache.db) to the Trash.
Try Safari. If it crashes again, follow the instructions for uninstalling then reinstalling Flash > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Restart your Mac Try Safari.

Why does my intel imac (2008) keep shutting down?

Imac recently started shutting down. no new hardware/software additions. Happens randomly, sometimes on start-up. Any ideas?

From: Eustace Mendis
Sounds like a Broken Drive...
Most of the times this will be solved with a HardDrive Replacement
although,
you could try this
Restart your Mac and hold down the Command key and the R key (Command-R).
Keep holding these keys until the Apple icon appears.
This indicates that your Mac is starting up.
After the Recovery System is finished starting up,
you should see a desktop with an OS X menu bar and a "Mac OS X Utilities" window.
After you do this, select Disk Utility and run it.
On the next screen,
Select the hard drive in the left hand column,
the First Aid tab on the top, and click on Reparid Disk. (bottom left)
When that is done, click on Repair Permissions.
When that is done, quit Disk Utility and restart.
