Regardless. This is an OS issue, no matter whether the host is movable or not.
Which means it's not even a Macbook what ever issue. Post should be in whatever os the op is using! Right?

I have an iPhone4 and when it goes to sleep I lose wi-fi connection. I then have to enter the password again. Shouldn't it reconize the wi-fi network automaticaly?
yes. have you tried a general phone reset by holding the sleep/wake button and home button until the phone restarts? have you tried to reset network settings? settings, general, reset, reset network settings. if that doesn't work try this support document:

When I enter Yahoo.ca, I lose my internet connection(safari). Can anyone help me with this. Thanks.
When I enter Yahoo.ca, I lose my internet connection. This happens most of the time. Sometimes immediatly, other times after a few minutes. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.
All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then? -
My macbook shut off and wont turn back on. Im pretty sure it is charging. The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed. Im in grad school and have lots saved. Please Help!
ronicr76,
First it would be helpful if you post the exact model, year and OS version you have.
> The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed<
So that light is the sleep indicator and tells us that the laptop is going to sleep when you close the lid. That would be normal behavior so the machine is still working. Possibly you're experiencing a backlight failure. With the machine supposedly "on" use a flashlight to carefully examine the screen. Do you see the desktop? Yes? machine is still running and something is wrong with the backlight.
You should immediately backup your computer or at the very least pull vital files off. With the computer hooked to another Mac (The way this is done depends on the exact MacBook, E.g.FireWire 800 to FireWire 800.) Then you restart the computer and hold the "t" key down. This puts your MacBook into "target mode":
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
Once your files are off try an SMC reset:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Are you able to get the backlight back on by opening and closing the display? Yes? Broken backlight cable refer to qualified service place. Even if it doesn't come on and you can still see the desktop with a flashlight it is still probably the backlight. Could be the a backlight problem also. -
I updated my iphone and when it came time for activation it won't work and keeps telling me to try again. At the top it says "No Service" and I have my SIM card in and a good WiFi connection and have connected it through iTunes but it says I have no SIM card and need to disconnect and insert my SIM. I don't understand why this keeps happening and it's been going on for a wile now. I have tried over and over again to get this iPhone to work but nothig is happening. I've even gone on the website for support (apple.com/support) but cannot find anything that will help me with this situation. Can someone please help me find a solution to this problem? I have been without a phone and do not have money to buy another one and it is crucial for me to get it fixed. Thanks.

What computer operating system is involved in the Premiere Elements 11 and 13 issues? Same computer or different ones? Are you installing from purchased download installation files or from purchased installation disc? Does Premiere Elements 11 work completely on this computer whereas 13 will not?
Let us go through the typical drill so as to take nothing for granted.
1. Does the problem exist with or without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Are you working with an individual home computer or in a
school or company network?
2. Are you running the program as Administrator and is there any "domain" account involved?
3. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on the computer with Premiere Elements?
Let us start by ruling in or out any of the above, and then we can decide what next.
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.
Please complete or update your system profile so the users here can properly help you. We don't even know which model iPod Nano you have!!!

Since downloading IOS8 when I log in to certain websites that are password specific, despite checking the keep logged in box, when I go back to home screen then back to website, I have been logged out and have to log back in-very frustrating-any ideas please?
To see registered devices in My account:
1) Go to Account > My Account
2) Scroll down, and ensure that that you first have an active subscrption (if you do not, you are not logged in to you Ovi Music unlimited account)
3) Below Unlimited downloads subscription box, you should have a Registered devices box.
Cheers,

I have a set of 3 USB disks connected to my Time capsule (TC) via a USB hub. I usually switch the TC at night. When I restart the next day it stucks in amber state. When I disconnect the USB hub where my discs connects and restart, the TC will start properly. Any hints?
LOL.. don't switch off the TC.. this is fairly typical behaviour..
Or try a different usb hub.. but you could well and truly run out of hubs before you fix the problem.
Are you running latest firmware for your TC?
What error message is coming up in the airport utility.. amber led is a fault indicator.. look up what the actual fault is and see if it is for instance overloading the usb. You are using a powered hub??
Get one bigger USB hard disk instead of 3 smaller ones. -
I need to upgrade to mac os snow leopard from 10.5.8, and have the lion OS usb. I can't upgrade to snow leopard as my father doesn't remember the admin password. If anyone can help it would be appreciated
Restart with the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD in the drive or with the Lion USB drive connected, hold down the Option key just after the restart, tab to the installation disk, and press Enter. If the computer has a firmware password set, it needs to be provided for this to work.

Mac extremely slow since recently downloading latest "numbers" software update. Also Mac when put to sleep, will now wake up by itself and go back to sleep etc, etc. Please Help!

Sorry, I am running version 3.2.2. (1878) for Numbers

OK, thanks. First, open Disk Utility and the Repair Disk Permissions on your internal HD. You can find DU in Applications - Utilitie. After doing so please restart in Safe Mode, this is easily done by holding down the Shift Key on your keyboard when you hear the start up tone, you will see a progress bar appear letting yuo know it's starting in Safe Mode. Then reset the SMC and PRAM, instructions can be found by clicking iMac SMC and PRAM reset. Then retest. -
IPhone 6 randomly loses iMessage, iCloud connectivity, and more...
My wife's iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.2) has been experiencing issues since day 1 (over a month). All issues seem related. Randomly (every few days), the phone
loses iMessage connectivity with other iOS devices. Standard text messages work, but no messaging from other Apple devices can be sent or received
loses iCloud connection. Apple ID can't be validated.
does not appear in "Find my iPhone" in iCloud. Well, it appears, but shows as "offline"
A reboot fixes all the issues. My wife, however, generally forgets to reboot her phone (and, frankly, should not have to).
I have had iPhones for a long time, and have been working in IT for over 30 years, so I am no noob. I have tried every fix mentioned online (reboot/reset network settings/factory restore/etc.) The problem ALWAYS returns.
This is an expensive device and these issues should NOT be happening constantly. She is getting frustrated and is considering selling this phone (and taking a substantial monetary loss) and going back to Android.
Hoping for any ideas that can stop these constant annoyances.

If she been experiencing this issue since day 1, why didn't you take it back to Apple? -

although it is doing what i asked it to do, i want it to charge, ok so it does it... although when i turn it on it's as if it's either not charged at all but only enough to have the apple icon on my ipod, once it's had enough (which is like, a minute) it switches itself off and carries on charging, sometimes it switches itself on but this just takes it back to step one. also, when i connect my device to the USB port itunes does not recognise it for some reason, i've updated the newest version of itunes recently and i've tried annother ipod on annother computer with the same USB cable, so it's either the newest version of itunes, my ipod or my computer. please help
P.S,
i do have the required version of windows for this to work, my computer isn't a mac, it's a pc, hope this helps...how long have you had your ipod? mine did the same but after a while you need to get a new one because of the battery...

I have a Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3, i have no problem viewing videos on youtube but when i try and watch movies or tv shows streaming them off websites, it seems to come up with this message.
'Please install flash player HD to continue (required),'
when i click the install button it leads me to this page
'You are currently using Apple Safari to browse the web. An outdated video player may be slowing the browser's performance.'
i have tried using safari, firefox and google chrome and all say the same thing.
i downloaded and installed both the flash player and the one from safari both seemed to install without a problem but when i go back and try and view the video it shows the same message.
Please help
Thank youHi oliviay29570750,
"flash player HD" is not a valid Adobe product. Flash Player is just known as Flash Player, not Flash Player HD. Can you please post a screenshot (How to post a screenshot in the forum) of the pop-up message and the page you go to when you click on the link (including the URL of the page)?
Thank you.

After I browsed a page in a websit, I could not close that page by using the X in the rt. hand top corner as when I did this Firefox told me that it would close all tabs. It was the only way out so I closed them and started from scratch.
mratlasdreamz,
which app are you running when you get the annoying chime as you try to correct a typo?
If you’re sure that you have a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU and 2 GB of 667 MHz RAM, then what you have is not a MacBook Pro, but an Early 2008 MacBook (did it really cost £2000 then?) — and with that model of MacBook, you could upgrade to Lion. Whether you stay with Snow Leopard or upgrade to Lion, you might find that upgrading your RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB could be helpful.
You can confirm which model you have by selecting About This Mac on the Apple menu, clicking the “More Info…” button, then clicking on the “System Report…” button, and looking at the “Model Identifier” value in the Hardware Overview section. If you have an Early 2008 MacBook, then the model identifier will say “MacBook4,1”. If it gives a different model identifier, then include that model identifier in your reply, and we can determine which model you have, and which CPU and speed of RAM it uses.
Note that Firefox 26 still supports Snow Leopard, and that Mozilla makes no CPU recommendations for Firefox on OS X other than “an Intel x86 processor”.
