When unlocking with correct password, a message appears before pressing enter ! Disclosing (almost) password !! - Severe Security Breach !
In the new OS 5 (which I was updated to last week), if you define a password to lock your device, when you enter the correct password, before you press enter or the trackball, a message appears on top in a red frame "Press (green phonetube) to attemp an Emergency call".
This red frame/message might confirm to an unauthorized user trying to unlock the device, that he/she has guessed the correct password.
I think the correct operation should be to wait for a "enter" and if password is correct then unlock the device, otherwise anounce an incorrect password message and keep device locked.
Regards
The "Press (green phonetube) to attemp an Emergency call" is not confirming the password is correct, it is offering to allow you make a call to your local emergency number rather than typing in a password.

I addesd a lot of songs in my itunes, now when I synced my ipod this message appear "elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library (additional 382m is required). Then I uncheck a lot of song and synced my ipod again same message appeared. Do I need to buy a new ipod with more memories? Somebody told me to check apply after I unchecked some of the songs but I cannot find the word APPLY. please help I'm not a very technical person.
The Sync button becomes the Apply button, if you change the iPod's settings in iTunes. If you are only unchecking songs in the iTunes music library, you click on the Sync button.
When you select the iPod in iTunes, you see the iPod's Summary screen on the main part of the iTunes window. There is a checkbox there for Sync only checked songs. Did you check that checkbox? If you want iTunes to ignore the songs you unchecked when syncing your iPod, that setting needs to be enabled. If you change that setting, you'll see the the Sync botton has changed to Apply. Click Apply.
That method of unchecking songs works, but it may become annoying over time, as you need to uncheck more and more songs. If you want advice on some other more convenient ways to make it work, you can post back. -
when syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen. have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing. Ipad does not show up in itunes even though cable plugged in. Have shut down and restarted Windows 7 computer.
I had done all of that to no avail. I did call Apple Tech Support and after he suggested I try a USB port in the rear of the Win 7 computer, things starting working again. I had tried switching the USB port at the front of the machine but that had not helped. Everything is good to go again. thanks for your reply

Even though there are over 200 photos on my ipad, after trying both methods of importing and connecting with a lead, a message appears saying that there are no photos on this device. Any ideas?
Did you connect your iPad to your computer then open the application on your computer that transfers photos from a camera? Your computer should recognize the iPad as a camera. All photos in the Camera Roll on the iPad should then be seen and you should be able to copy them to the computer using that application.
Photos that were synced to your iPad by connecting to your syncing computer cannot be copied back this way as the master file for those photos are on the syncing computer. -
when I open iphoto the following message appears 'Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable'
Reboot you system, if you have not already done so - this should take care of the "in use by another application" part of the message.
If the problem persist you will need to create a new library or to repair your library, or to restore it from your backup.
If you do not yet have any images in your iPhoto Library simply move it to the Trash and hold down the option-key while launching iPhoto again. This will give you the option to create a new iPhoto Library or to pick another one, if you have other libraries.
To fix your current library, or to restore it from backup, if you already have pictures inside that you need to save, see Terence Devlin's posts here:
Re: Why do I keep getting asked to repair my iPhoto library?

I have the iphone 4 and when syncing my iphone an error message appears half way through saying "itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone cannot be determined" can anyone help? I cant back up my iphone as this appears every time :-(
As another post suggested, I restarted both the iPhone and the computer, and that fixed the problem.

Downloaded latest IOS 7.0.2 and it crashed my iphone 4. Now Ive got nothing and it wont restore when connected with Itunes cos Error Message 4005 comes up. Cant find it listed anywhere. Help
Hi!
It looks like there might be some security settings or software on your laptop that's preventing the restore process from working.
Check out this article in Apple's support. It shows you the steps you can take to try to get around error 1611.
Like diesel vdub said, a DFU-mode restore might give you success where a regular restore might not, so maybe you can try that.
What you need to do is put your phone into DFU mode, which is a low-level mode that helps the restore process get a little more done, or it can help iTunes get around certain roadblocks (hopefully like the one you're experiencing!). Your computer will install special DFU-iPhone drivers for it, and then iTunes will see it as a phone that needs restoring.
To get your phone into DFU mode:
Plug your phone into your laptop.
Turn the phone off.
Press and hold the power/lock button. Keep it held in, even after the display turns on and you see something on the screen. As soon as you see something on the screen, start holding the home button as well as the power button, so that they're being pressed together.
Keep both buttons pressed down for 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds, release the power button, but keep holding home until the laptop sees a new USB device. Once you see that, you're in DFU mode, and you can let go of buttons. Your iPhone screen will be blank during it all, even though it's actually on, in DFU mode.
Now your restore should work!
If your phone shows the Apple logo or anything else while you're trying to get it into DFU mode, then something went wrong. Try the steps again. If it suddenly starts up normally again, try reducing the time to a bit less than 10 seconds--try reducing it by about a second at a time. It should work! -
I just received a replacement iphone (4s with ios7) but whenever I try to log into my itunes store, after I enter my password, it acts as if I never logged in. If I enter an incorrect password it tells me so, but no error message at all when I enter the correct password - nothing happens. My itunes is up to date.
Have you tried going to Settings>iTunes and App Stores (or just Store) and signing out and then signing in again?

When unlocking with touch ID phone goes black with apple icon then locks again?
when I go to unlock my screen with the "touch ID" the home screen opens for a flash then goes to a black screen and the "apple" logo appears for 10-20 seconds then locks again. If I try to unlock with touch ID again it'l work usually. When using my pass code with the keypad no issue. Phone is brand new 7.0.4 software was already installed on the phone.
Thanks for the input.
Unfortunately that is not my case: I close all open apps several times a day and just had four open windows in Safari.
I closed all of them, just to make sure and did a reboot.
That helped for around 5 times, then the phone does the same thing again.
It actually doesn't reboot but just displays the black apple logo on a white screen for about 10 seconds and after that gives me the home screen.
So it is definitely not a reboot, I think.
Until now I assume it is an error, it would just be nice to know if it is a hardware or software error..... -
When I try to download a message appears to say my download manager is fake
I live in Thailand - land of fakes - I recently had my comp. repaired - new motherboard. Now when I try to download something a message appears to say that my Internet Download Manager is registered with a fake number.
Thank you AlleyKat for your assistance. I did not try to delete IDM it sounded too dangerous for an old computer illiterate guy like me to tackle. But I followed the instructions and disabled it in tools. So I can download things again now. However when I restarted my computer after disabling, the message was still there asking me to pay for their license.
Once again thank you.

Officejet A909a prints from mac but when from windows "out of paper" message appears.
I have an older 8500 which has been very loyal to me and I have looking after it well, which is now pushing 4000 pages. However i went to print a file from my Windows 7 PC yesterday which is connected via usb, and it wouldnt print saying it was out of paper (which it wasn't) about half full . So i tried again no luck. UN-installed then reinstalled the printer still noting. went to my work laptop (windows 7) which is connected wirelessly through the network, same again "no paper" message appears. i thought this is strange turned it off back on still nothing even after disconnecting it from the mains for a few minutes, nothing the same message still appears.
However, my son has a mac book pro and he just printed his coursework off the printer effortlessly through my network. so i know the printer is fine especially as i have now printed self test pages off through the printer itself.
I have no idea what to do now, as i have tried uninstalling then installing, printing via usb and network. and when i say "out of paper" i mean the printer receives the print command from my computer as it tries to feed paper a few times but cant pick it up also i have tried with various paper levels in the printer (full, half, about 20 pages, 1 single page)
Please help.Hello @Dangerous97,
I understand that when printing from your 2 Windows 7 computers you receive an 'out of paper' message after your HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer struggles and fails to pick up paper. However, you are able to print from a Mac computer. This is very unusual behaviour! I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. Also, thank you for including that you are able to print self-test pages from the printer with no issues as well.
Generally, 'out of paper' messages are caused by a hardware issue with the printer itself. Because you are able to print standalone to your printer and from a Mac, there may be an issue with the documents that you're trying to print from your Windows 7 computer or a programming issue with your printer.
With that being said, to start I would like you to click here to download and install the latest programming Firmware Update on your printer. Once the website opens select the Download button on the top left. Once the download is complete, please follow any onscreen instructions to send the update to your printer.
Once the Firmware has been successfully updated, please test printing again.
Please respond to this post with the result of the Firmware Update. Good luck!

[Bug] Alarm bugged when unlocking with camera.
I'm probably the 1,000,000th person to report this, but I thought I would pass it on anyway.
If you unlock your iPhone through the quick camera button on the lock screen while an alarm is currently sounding, you can no longer turn the alarm off and must cycle the phones power to stop the alarm.
To replicate:
Set an alarm for any time.
Lock your phone. (I was not using a password.)
When the alarm sounds, double click the home button.
Enter the phone through the camera button.
Enjoy continuous alarm.Who can help me what are the symbols of a moon and a lock with a partial circle around it not allowing me to turn on or off my phone

When I switched on my iPhone tonight it displayed the apple sign but in the top left hand corner a message appears in tiny writing in black and white and it doesn't let me go any further. I've tried holding both buttons down to reboot but it is still the same when I switch it back on.
Hi I can't read the message displayed as the writing is so tiny and cryptic. It starts with one line of text but continues down the page.
