  • How to turn on the icloud back

    i could not turn on the icloud back up button for iphone 5?it is shaded

    If the phone was provided by your employer, or if you added your employer's exchange email account, your employer may have installed a security profile preventing the phone from backing up to iCloud.  You also may notice that you have a setting called "Profile" in Settings>General, near the bottom.  You would have to confirm this with your employer's IT department.

  • TS1398 3GS IPhone will not recognize a Wi-Fi connection at home or work.  We have tried turning it on/off as well as turning airplane mode to on while turning it off then back on again.  My 3GS IPhone is working fine with our router at home.  Thanks

    My husband's 3GS IPhone will not recognize a Wi-Fi connection at home or work.  We have tried turning it on/off as well as turning airplane mode to on while turning it off then back on again.  My 3GS IPhone is working fine with our router at home.  Please advise what our next step should be.  Thank you for taking the time to read this post!!

    Just to double check you tried eveyrthing take a look at this link http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 .
    Can also try powering off the home router, then the phone, and then power up the router wait for the signal and then power up the phone and see if he can connect.

  • HT201472 Why can't Apple turn on the Find My iPhone feature if it's been stolen?

    A friend of mine's house was robbed this morning. They lost tens of thousands of dollars worth of belongings, including a new ipad 4. They have icloud on the device... and had the Find My iPhone app on other devices, but not the new ipad. In extreme cases, why can't Apple remotely turn on the Find My iPhone feature? If they could find the ipad it could lead them to the people who stole everything else from them.

    The suggestions has, more or less, been implemented in iOS 7: with iOS 7, you can make stolen devices unusable, and still display a text that might allow them to be recovered. See, for instance, http://www.imore.com/ios-7-preview-activation-lock-aims-keep-out-crooks

  • New owner of MBP, why can't you turn off the keyboard backlight in Win 7?

    I'm a new owner of MBP. I have Windows 7 64bits installed on bootcamp. The keyboard backlight is really bothering me. I thought Boot Camp was out for awhile, and I don't know why can't Apple fix this backlight control thing? I downloaded that power assistant software and I liked it; however, I was turned off that it wasn't a freeware. What can I do to turn this backlight off permanently?

    Well... seems like pre-2010 MBPs all had 'non-disablable' keyboard backlights on Windows. Installing BC 3.1 won't help at all. You could temporary minimize backlight level, but not turn it off. And on just any ambient light change it jumps back to maximum. Extremely erratic
    A friend of mine got a 2010 MBP and he's able to turn backlight off. I've got mid-2009 model with BC 3.1, and I can't. My another friend has late-2008 model, he can't turn the backlight off, either.
    I agree, ideally powerplan7 should have been a freeware. However, although I did spend $10 on a key, I'm oh-so-happy right now. With backlight disabled And since there are no alternatives AT ALL, I'm glad they're not selling this software for, say, $25.

  • Why can't you turn off the new message indicator on any of the blackberry devices?

    i can't believe that i cannot turn off having my blackberry notifiy me when i get an email.  at the top of the homescreen i either get a "Message Count" or if I turn this off i get the little red asterik alert folder appearing, plus the mail icon gets a red asterik on it.  i don't want to see this and i know that many other users feel the same way. 
    has anyone figured out a way to turn this off?  if not, how can we let blackberry know they need to fix this in future models?  there are message boards all over the internet with this same complaint. 
    a little more background: 
    - the issue is on a saturday afternoon when i grab my phone to make a call, i don't want to see a little red asterik notifying me that i have a new message.  i also don't want to see a running count all the time.
    - i tried turning off the data plan part so new messages wouldn't reach me, but the problem with that is when i later turn the data plan back on, the new messages are not then sent.  they never each my phone.  seems the server tries sending them once and if the data plan is turned off they don't make it, but never make it.
    i hope someone at blackberry reads this and they make this simple change in a future model.  i'll upgrade to it immediately when they do.  i love the device but hate being constantly reminded of new messages.

    Hi dplindsey, and welcome to the foams!
    It's also time for the 1am Eaddicts meeting to start
    Here's the deal, Turn off all the notification, ring tones, led''s for emails.
    Go to the main homescreen and hit the menu key twice select make a folder.
    Go to your main message queue icon, highlight it and press menu, select MOVE.
    Move the Icon in to folder.  TA DA!   It's GONE
    Data plan is good so you can still browse the web. Emails are stil getting delivered so you arent missing any.
    What do you think?
    If you need more information, please ask
    !If not, please resolve the post using the options by the kudos’ star
    Just check the post that had your answer!
    Thanks

  • Why can't I open Slideshow in Yahoo mail in Firefox 15.0.1 when it works fine if I use Safari? Mac OS X / v10.7.5

    For the last two days I've had a problem opening attached photos in the Yahoo Mail Slideshow feature. The screen goes to a grey layer as usual, but the photo never opens to view it. I don't think it's a Yahoo problem as the Slideshow works fine if I access my mail using Safari.
    Some older posts suggested clearing the cache of personal cookies, but I don't store any history on this computer so there is no cache to clear.

    Thank you.
    I've restarted Firefox in Safe Mode as suggested and when I open the Yahoo Mail slideshow it works fine. I guess that tells me there may be a corrupted file somewhere. I'm just not sure how to go about finding out how to correct it. When I try to switch to the 'Default Appearance Theme' it won't allow me to do it while in Safe Mode. Should I be trying this AFTER I get back out of 'Safe'?
    I don't keep any cache so I'm not sure how I can bypass it. I've tried reloading the mail inbox page by pressing "Command + Shift + R" but to no avail...
    This problem just came up in the last two days, so I went back one week in my Time Capsule backup to reload a copy of Firefox from a time when I wasn't having problems - still no luck. The photos won't open in the slideshow preview on Firefox unless I'm running in Safe Mode.
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions as to how to isolate the file or add-on that may be corrupted...

  • Why does my retina MBPro and the projector go blank, when connecting with HDMI? This worked fine until the latest OS and firmware update.

    Connecting through HDMI worked fine, until the recent firmware update and the 10.7.5 OS update. Now, both retina display and projector dosplay go blank, with the screen coming back when unplugged from the projector.

    Clone your system.
    Never apply updates w/o one.
    And yes there is a page with all the Apple Downloads to do manually and then you can keep it on hand. Same for the OS X Lion or ML installer - save them before running. Still on 10.6.8 so you have OS X 10.6 DVD.
    Combo updates do not do any harm. There could be issues to the drive directory beforehand.
    Mac Pro has been shipping with Lion since summer 2011, though you can even now still reinstall iwth 10.6.4+

  • Why can't I get embed codes at YouTube using Firefox on my desktop, while it works fine on my Macbook Pro with Firefox? This is a recent change.

    Recently, I noticed that when I attempt to "share" a YouTube video and click the share button, I get no embed codes. In fact I get no options at all. And, when I tried to share a YouTube playlist, again, nothing happens except an apparent text box opens that I cannot type or enter anything into. I use a Macbook Pro at work, with Firefox as my browser and everything works just as it should on YouTube. Since this is a quite recent problem with my Dell desktop (Firefox browser) at home, I suspect something has changed resulting in my current issue. Thanks for any help!

    YouTube Content Creators have the ability to disable embedding if they wish to keep their videos on YouTube only. This is most likely what has occurred and is more than likely not an issue with Firefox itself.

  • The spry pop-up menu I built in Adobe Dreamweaver worked fine in my old Firefox, I updated Firefox today and the menu no longer works--despite disabling the pop-up blocker in Firefox preferences...what's the problem??? I need the menu to work!!!

    I built a new pop-up menu for my website using Spry in Adobe Dreamweaver. Because of some differences in .HTML and .XHTML
    it took me days to get it right. I tested every variation in Firefox until it worked perfectly. Today, I installed the newest version of Firefox and now the pop-up no longer works. I changed the preferences in Firefox to disable to pop-up blocker and it STILL DOESN'T WORK...although an older style of pop-up menu (menu machine) which is no longer supported by Adobe, DOES WORK.
    HELP!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT.

    pixlor:
    OP is using CS3 and the menu blog is talking about the menus
    in earlier
    versions of FW, so *most* of the points made in the blog
    don't apply.
    That's not to say that using CS3 pop-up menus is a *good*
    thing....

    I am on Vacations in Nicaragua and I just lost my Ipod. I did not turned on the ICloud. How can I use "Find my Ipod".? please help me.

    You cannot use it.  You would have had to set it up on your ipod itself before you lost it.  Since you did not "turn on the icloud", then you have not set up find my ipod.
    Sorry.
    There is no way to track your ipod.
