Trying to restore, I've tried a dozen networks and I keep getting a "lost connection" after an hour or two, EVERYTIME. Using Cox Wi-fi with a netgear 300 router. Any suggestions?

Thanks, helped me figure out a bigger problem there was with my router's access control and all kinds of crazy numbers that needed to be changed, but I got it.
Problem is fixed as far as I can tell!

  • I'm trying to restore factory setting on my ipad mini and I keep getting error 2001.  It won't turn on and won't restore.

    I've been trying to fix my sister in law's ipad mini.  When I plug the ipad mini into itunes it say's it needs to restore factory settings.  When I do that, it tries to do it, but then says it can't because of an unknown error 2001.  I've tried it over and over, unplugged it and plugged it back in, tried to restore numerous times and the same thing keeps coming up.  It won't turn on and the screen just shows that I need to plug it into itunes.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    If the USB connection between your device and computer is interrupted, you may be unable to update or restore.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
    Try a different computer.
    If necessary, resolve any further issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.

    I believe there is a technique which uses some similar suggestion to unwittingly tempt the user into installing malware, in order to be able to watch some (usually sexually explicit) video, so be aware of this ruse.
    The only things I would download would be Perian that extends Quicktime, available here,
    http://www.perian.org/
    and if that did not do it, then try VLC to use instead of Quicktime.

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

  • Trying to redownload but keep getting a "lost connection error"

    In the past, I had some problems with my laptop so I recently re-installed Windows 7 yesterday. I got everything running fine. But today, I am having problems with flash player. Youtube videos don't play correctly and some websites don't display like they are supposed to. So, I tried redownloading adobe flash player, but I keep getting this "Lost connection" error. What is the problem and how do I fix it? I'm using FireFox, btw. It seems to work on Google Chrome but I like using FireFox better.

    Try using these installers:
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Apple TV won't load up. the light flashes and the logo appears on the TV then it just goes off and starts again. I've tried restoring via USB on 5 different computers and I keep getting error message 9? Can anyone please help?

    I have a black Apple TV that has recently stopped working. It loads the Apple Logo on screen then goes off and starts again. It's as if it is stuck in a loop. I've tried a re-boot and this has failed. I have tried a restore using a USB cable on 5 different computers, including a Mac Book Pro and it downloads the update file but when it tries to restore I get the error code 9 showing on screen. I just can't get it to do anything.
    Can anyone please help?

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • I'M TRYING TO PURCHASE SONGS THROUGH ITUNES AND IT KEEPS TELLING ME MY USERID IS DISABLED, BUT IT WON'T LET ME CREATE A NEW ONE???? ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    I'm trying to make a purchase, but it tells me my Apple ID has been disabled, it will not let me create a new one-just a new password. Any suggestions????

    If changing your password does not solve, then contact itunes support.

  • I'm trying to hookup my new AirPort Extreme with my net gear 7550 router/modem from Frontier. I'm not getting a wifi signal from the airport. What am I doing wrong?

    What am I doing wrong?

    I'm trying to use AirPort Untility to configure the old APExtreme to extend the network, but it won't let me.
    "Extend" is only used if the two AirPort Extremes are connecting using wireless only.
    "Create" is the correct setting to use since the AirPort Exremes are connecting using Ethernet.
    Configure the second AirPort Extreme to create a wireless network using the exact same wireless network name, same security setttings and same wireless password as the "main" AirPort Extreme and make sure that you are choosing the Bridge Mode option for the second AirPort Extreme before clicking Update to save the settings.
    When you do this, everything will act like one big wireless network and computers will automatically pick up a signal from the AirPort with the strongest signal based on their location.
    This Apple document more details on this....which is called a Roaming Network.

  • I am trying to update itunes to 11.1.1.11 and i keep getting 'erreo writing to file : C\ : Config.Ms\301ded48.rfb.Verify that you have access to that directory'. What does this mean and how can i fix it?

    I am trying to update itunes to 11.1.1.11 and keep getting message at the end ' error writing to file :c:\Config.Msi\301ded48.rbf.Verify that you have access to that directory'. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

    I had this exact same problem just now, trying to upgrade to 10.7.
    I even got that error msg when trying to UNINSTALL iTunes!
    After hours of frustration trying everyone's different suggestions, I downloaded Revo Uninstaller http://www.cnet.com.au/apps/revo-uninstaller-10610875/ which solved the problem.
    Use it to help uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    1. iTunes
    2. QuickTime
    3. Apple Software Update
    4. Apple Mobile Device Support
    5. Bonjour
    6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Then you can install iTunes from scratch.
    Good luck

  • I am trying to convert a whole lot of MP3 files and I keep getting error -50, on some of the tracks, but a significant percentage of them.

    I have several thousand mp3 files I'd like to convert to AAC, to allow Itunes Match to have a better chance at actually getting a pozitive match.
    Howver, after doing maybe 30 or so files I get an error - Error occured converting the file "<track Name>". An unknown error occurred (-50).
    Any ideas anyone?
