Hi Gabriel246,
What version of BlackBerry Link do you currently have installed? Also, can you provide me the full software version of your BlackBerry Z10?
Thanks.

So you are saying that you followed all of the steps in the support document for problems with connection, including removing and reinstalling iTunes? You do not say what you have tried, so it is hard to make recommendations. If this is the case, then you have tried resolving driver issues? What if you go to Device Manager and look for the iPhone. You should be able to click on it and see about drivers. You can update/reinstall the device driver.

I Was trying to update my apps, then i got an alert that said sign in required. I pressed continue, then it took me to my acct settings and it said there was a prob with my previous purchase and I havent purchased anything???

Can someone tell me how to install webcam isight A1023 on my mac mini with OS 10.8

Please help me to install my webcam isight A1023 on my mac mini with OS 10.8

All you need do is follow the instructions in the iSight User Guide (Manual) that came with your old external iSight.
Neither your system info nor your post identify which Mac mini you use. If your mini is a newer model that has only a Firewire 800 port, and, if you don't already have one that works, you will need a FW400-800 adapter or cable.
Be aware of Possible Conflicts with Firewire iSight. If you encounter such problems with your mini system and cannot resolve them, you can workaround the Firewire issues by using a Mac compatible USB external camera.

MSI 538 - prob with firmware update

I have seen that many had this same prob with this mp3 player.I tryed to update my ms-5538 and got message "Unidentified NOR Flash type".Set usb 1.1 nothing hapens, tryed other comps-same thing.Please help,what to do.

the links don't seem to be working properly at the moment, this is the file you need:
http://us2.msi.com.tw/files/downloads/frm_exe/MS5538FW_v1.11.03.zip
you can ignore the instructions in the ReadMe file. extract all the files in the zip, connect your 538 player (ensuring it is recognised and working correctly) and then run the FWISP.exe program file to update the firmware
PS if your player is currently working fine with no problems then you do not need to update the firmware

Webcams and Skype with 10.3.9

Hi all, I searched before posting my question...thanks for any help in advance.
I have SKYPE and all is workig well-speechwise. Would like to now connect a webcam to see those I call/Skype with, what should I buy so it works with Skype and on my PBook G4 with OS 10.3 (have all updates). The folks I communicate with have a PC not Mac, but I don't think that is a problem via SKYPE (?)
Thank-you
Marketa

You don't need any more software . The iSight instruction book says that to use iSight, you must have the following:
"A Macintosh computer with a G3 processor at 600 Mz or greater or any G4 or G5 processor.
Mac OS 10.2.5 or later and iChat AV.
A .Mac America Online (AOL) or AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) account (only required to use iChat AV outside your local area network).
A broadband internet connection using a DSL or cable modem.
You can video conference with other iChat AV users and Windows AIM users.
You must have iChat AV to be able to use iSight with other applications."
Presumably the last instruction covers the situation where you want to use iSight with Skype. I first used my iSight camera with iChat (which was already on my iMac computer) and my daughter set up a Windows AIM account. This used to regularly crash after about five minutes, giving us both sound but no picture ( a frequently reported occurrence in the Discussions pages). After we swapped to using Skype, the problems disappeared. I am no expert and got help initially to set up using this Discussion forum. If you need any really expert technical help, I'm sure others will be willing to jump in and give it.
Good luck !

I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out". No probs with old computer, just the new one. I'm onto my third new computer - same problem. Any suggestions please?

I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs using the new computer, there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out" during play back, similar to a small scratch on a vinyl record. Although when I play the same song over again, the "miss" occurs in a different location during the song. No probs with old computer, just the new one. I'm onto my third new computer - same problem. Any suggestions please?

You don't say which version of iTunes you are using, but the symptoms you describe have been encountered by some users with the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.
There is an alternative version for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
that seems to address the most of the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version of 12.1.0.77 - including problems with Bluetooth speakers where either sound is degraded or completely absent. The alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer. The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8). It may also be necessary to ensure that your Bluetooth speakers are active and selected as the default audio device before you run iTunes.
If this doesn't address the issue, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.

Will a external Apple iSight work with the latest Mac Mini?

with a firewire 400-800 if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
Many Thanks

Will a external apple isight work with the latest mac mini.
Yes (if the external iSight works.)
External iSights are great webcams, but they are getting old (as consumer electronics go) and some have had pretty rough treatment. You can test yours using the suggestions from this page:
http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get your external iSight working with your mini.
If you do not already have an external iSight and are considering buying one now,
a new webcam (with warranty) may be a better choice.
Many available alternatives are listed here: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/

Use one of the following ways to connect your FW400 external iSight to a FW800 Mac port:
• To use the FW400 6pin-6pin cable that comes with iSight, you can use a 6pin-9pin adapter
like one of these:
http://tinyurl.com/ydsbb6m&emsp; (I use this one.)
http://tinyurl.com/cgll7o
http://www.sonnettech.com/product/fw_adapter.html
• This Firewire 400-800 cable can work:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/TP320LL/A (I use this one.)
• Some report that this low-priced alternative cable works:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189097
I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get external iSight working with your mini. Once iSight works when it is the only FW connected device, you can try connecting other Firewire devices to determine whehter you can use any of them without conflict.
... if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
With your 10.6.3 mini, you can use QuickTime X, iChat, Photo Booth, iMovie, and some of the other apps that are installed with OS X. Your Mac's Help for each of these apps can tell you how to use them with iSight (or other connected cameras.)
Some more apps you can use are shown in this list:
http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage7.html
The web links for each app gives details on what functions is offers with your webcam.
Many Thanks

External iSight Camera not working after update installed?

a couple of weeks ago I turned on iChat and up popped a window that said i needed to update the (external) iSight camera i had plugged into my minimac (firewire). followed the instructions and did just that. little greenlight glowed happily, rotated lens and opened iChat--little green light blinked off and then iChat showed that the camera was not turned on. tried turning it on and off by rotating the lens, unplugging firewire and also restarted computer...no change. looked for update to firmware and downloaded 1.0.3, only to be told it does not work with OS 10.4 (bummer).
had a back up camera, plugged that in and no problems...trouble is roomate recently got the pop-up screen when he was using it and, thinking he was doing me a favor, 'updated'...so now have 2 cameras that do not work and no answers to be found on the posts or the apple support site.
any ideas?

Welcome to Discussions, johnboysf
(1) Assuming you are not ANY having other problems with your Macs and that your Mac OS X Maintenance is up to date, you can concentrate on the iSight part of your system(s).
Restart your Mac with no unnecessary peripherals connected and try the suggestions here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93240
(2) If your iSight still does not work with any app, check for Possible hardware or software conflicts with iSight.
(3) I cannot tell whether your mini is an iNtel or PPC. Apply the appropriate Combo Updater as follows if you still have the problem:
• Backup your Home Folder, or at very least, your important files.
• Repair permissions. (Click here if you need help.)
• For PPC, download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update (PPC).
• For iNtel, download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update v1.1 (Intel).
• Finish with another Permissions Repair, and then check your iSight again.
Users have reported fixes to a variety of audio, video, connectivity, and software conflicts and unreliability issues after properly applying Combo Updates.
(4) If your problem persists after trying all of the above, the problem may be with your iSight itself. The fact that you got that notification after you had previously been using your iSight successfully under OS 10.4.x, and the fact that the updater ran for you and your roommate under OS 10.4.x, makes me think there may be something wrong with your iSights. The Tiger (10.4.x) OS includes all the necessary earlier update (including iSight Firmware 1.0.3) and installs the Firmware update if necessary at the time you installed Tiger or first connected your iSight. Therefore, the Firmware update should be unnecessary and should not have been identified by Software Update... as being needed (unless someone has improperly thrown away some OS X files.)
As you note, iSight Firmware 1.0.3 will not run except on Mac OS X v10.3.7-10.3.9 (or, it now seems, if something is wrong.) If you have access to a Firewire-equipped Mac that is using one of these OSs, you can try applying the update to your iSights using that Mac.
(5) If you cannot find a Mac that is still using Panther, or if applying the update does not resolve your problem, contact your Apple Authorized Service Provider for professional service. Ask your AASP if he wants to see your Macs, too, to check whether their software has been modified or damaged.

SD card reader prob with L530 on Win 7

this forum is so crowded, incredible. sorry to say that. have a serious prob with the integrated SD card reader with my L530 on Win 7:
- not showing in device manager with/without card
- not showing in explorer, when card inserted (tried different cards, no worries)
- installed all available lenovo&win7 card reader driver, no change
- not even LED light flickering or anything, just off, no function
- no option in power management to enable card reader (as suggested in some forums)
would be a shame if i couldnt use the in-built lenovo hardware.
thanks for help
klingsor

Hi, klingsor
I would firstly make sure that the Card Reader is enabled in BIOS. This can be done by entering BIOS (hit Enter at splash screen, then hit F1 when the menu pops up.) From here, select Security and then I/O Port Access. Make sure the Card Reader here is set to Enabled.
I would also recommened making sure your BIOS has been updated, as this can sometimes cause some issues with peripherals not working as intended. The latest version can be found here.
Best,
Adam

Which USB Webcams will work with iChat?

Hi,
I'm new to these forums and am wanting to get a webcam, but iSights are no longer available and I don't have the interest or money to get a DV Camcorder.
So which USB webcams will work with iChat?
I take it I'll also have to purchase iChatUSBcam or whatever it's called.
Thanks
Iain

Hi Iain:
There is a list of cams on their website:

The only USB cam that doesn't require iChatUSBCam is the iMage.

Power Up probs with kt6 delta fis2r

I've recently changed my mother board and given my kt6 delta fis2r to my dad. It came out of my comp in fine working condition (earthed when removing etc.) It's now in my dad's case and when it's switched on it immidiatly switches off again. The bios was updated to 5.5 but was working for weeks before being moved. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advanced.

Just spoken to him, he's had the board out on the box connected it accross and it does the same, it's not actually getting far enough to give anything on the d-bracket. I've got a spare power supply here that isn't a Q-Tec and we're gonna try it on that first. My bro has also had probs this weekend so I'm told, he had a KT6V with the same power supply, and is now running my dads kt4 ultra. My bros PSU isn't liking my dad's comp either, so I'm now wondering if it's something to do with the 4 pin power plug on both PSU's? Still confused tho as I havn't had any probs with the board while it was on my Q-tec PSU, just lucky I guess?
Thanks for all of the replies, I'll be changing my PSU asap.

Problems with istallation windows updates

As
Andreas mentioned, more information would be helpful for troubleshooting, like the symptom and error code.
