Why am i getting error messages when trying to get email, why am i getting error messages when trying to get email
For the last two evening, my email has not been coming through with Comcast email. I get error messages like unable to verify user name and password or connection to the server has timed out. I have done a soft reset, deleted the email account and reinstalled but nothing works.
I had this same problem happen to me about 3 weeks ago or so. I'm with Rogers in Canada (iPhone 4).
Out of nowhere I started having errors with both of my email accounts on my phone (Hotmail, Gmail) which I had been using without problem since I got the phone in October 2010. I tried re-entering settings, removing and setting them up from scratch again, all to no avail. First it was Hotmail but Gmail shortly followed. I could, however, check both of these emails via a browser on a computer, so I knew those services weren't both down.
It also happened on two different wi-fi networks and with 3G.
Then as sure as it started, it ended. It was after about 6-10 days that all my email returned to normal.
If you've only had it happen for a few days now, I'd give it maybe another week and see if it goes away. I know this isn't a fix, and I was never able to find an explanation for the problem.

Why am i getting error message when trying to install iOS 7.0.3 to iPhone 5? It just won't download.
Why am i getting an error message when trying to download and install iOS 7.0,3 to iPhone 5?

If one is downloading directly to the iPhone via WiFi, it doesn't matter what version of iTunes is on the computer.
I decided to sync my phone to Outlook via iTunes. First thing, iTunes discovered that 7.0.3 was not on my phone. It asked if i wanted to install it. I said, "yes", and VOILA!! 7.0.3 is now installed on my iPhone.
So therein is the answer. Have no idea what bug is in there to keep it from loading to some phones directly via WiFi, but obviously, it is something!!
There is no bug. While you can update your iOS via wi-fi, it's recommended to do so via USB & iTunes. Depending on your wi-fi connection & singal strength, you can get errors. That's not a function specifically of the device. -

Why am I getting an error message when trying to use a Pages template?
You are getting an error message because there is an error.
Knowing wht version of Pages you are using, what template you are attempting to open, and what error message Pages is sending you might help determine why you are getting that specific rror message. Without those, the first sentence above i pretty much all that can be said with any assurance.

Why am I getting the message "Project could not be prepared because an error occurred. (File already open with write permission.) when trying to
share to the media browser? I have done this many times before and never got this message. This is very frustrating. Can anyone help me?Hi
Error -49 opWrErr File already open with write permission
Trash the preference files while application is NOT Running.
Easiest way to find out if this is the problem is by:
• Create a new User-Account
• Log out of Your old one and into this
• Re-try iMovie
If it now works OK - then 99.9% the problem is iMovie pref. file that needs to be trashed.
from Karsten Schlüter
Some users notice on exporting larger projects from within iMovie that this operation is aborted with an 'error -49'
This issue occurs only on MacOs machines using 10.7x
try switching-off the Local Mobile Backup
in Terminal copy/paste
sudo tmutil disablelocal
Re-launch Mac

Why do I get "generic error" message when trying to upload a self-created, 1hr .wmv file?
I went through the forums and made sure that any blocks or copywrites weren't triggered by the file, it's clean and can be opened using a media player and other video editing software like windows MovieMaker. I keep getting "The importer reported a generic error" message and have no idea how to proceed. Can someone please help?
Re: Why do I get "generic error" message when trying to upload a self-created, 1hr .wmv file?
This ARTICLE starts with a checklist on setting up a computer to run PrE best, then goes into a series of links for tuning up one's computer and OS, and then links on troubleshooting.
There is also a link on posting all necessary info, to help others help you.
Without knowing much more about your system, it is impossible to say much beyond that WMV's are tough assests to work with, requiring a lot of CPU horsepower.
Good luck,

Why am I getting an error message when trying to download iOS 6.0.1?
Given that iOS 6 and 6.0.1 have been out for a good few days now, why am I still getting an error message? Is it simply a case of keep trying??
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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

When trying to upload Version 5 update for IPad after the download is complete and the files are being processed I get an error message - 3259 which says the internet connection is timed out but in fact it is still operational. The download is unsuccessful. Why is this?
Try temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.

Why do I get an error message when trying to sync my ipads with my imac
We have two ipads - version 2 I think - the last ones with the old style plug. Both are running IOS 7.1.1 Over the last week, every time I try to sync either ipad with my imac (27" - about 18 months old) which is running OSX 10.9.2 I get the following error message. "The Ipad cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred (1723)" In every case it takes a while for the error message to appear - the sync gives every impression of rolling along just fine through the various steps - when it reaches step 5 of 6 (syncing photos) it seems to hang up, then after a while the error message shows up.
Interestingly, there are no photos on the ipad, so nothing to sync to the imac, but I discovered all of this when I tried to sync some photos in the other direction, from iphoto to one of the ipads. All I got was the pin wheel of death. I am running the most current version of iphoto too.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be gratefully accepted.Can you create a test Project in PrE 9 and does that work. If so, close that Project and then Open it again in PrE 9.
It could be as simple as your PrE 8 Projects just not Opening in PrE 9. There is often forward compatibility, but not always. It is usually best to finish Projects in the version, in which they were started.
Good luck,
