Why can't I use links within my email messages? When a link is clicked, nothing happens--it doesn't go to that specific website.

HI Ana ...
I had FB working again two days ago, and yesterday in mid-serve Safari just "couldn't find the server" once more...
That's a different issue...
First, if you can just use English, open System Preferences > Language & Text then select the Language tab. Drag English to the top of the list then restart your Mac.
Now for the server issue. Try using Open DNS. That shold help the "couldn't find the server" issue...
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.
Try accessing Facebook on Safari now.

Why can't I use a backslash on my Iphone when entering my email address

Why can't I use a backslash on my Iphone when entering my email address

Best thing to do is go to your email, hit reply on any email and find the backslash on your keyboard. Select the Backslash and then cut/copy it into your mail settings or wherever you want to use it.

Why can't I use my previous MobileMe email address instead of creating a new one?

Why can't I use my previous MobileMe email address instead of creating a new one? When signing up for iCloud I'm asked to choose an email address [email protected] I am already using an @me address via moblileme. When i input that address it states that that address is already taken. Try picking a new one. I don't want a new one I want to use my mobileme address. How can that be done?

It appears you set up a new iCloud account rather than migrating your MobileMe account over to iCloud. I migrated everything over this morning and am still using my old MobileMe email address.
Check to see if you can migrate rather than open a new account.

I used an American Express card to purchase my Ipad from Apple online. I have an Apple ID. why can't I use Amex as my payment method when signing in to Itunes?

I have an Apple ID, created when I recently purchased an ipad from Apple online. I used my Amex as payment method. Why can I not use my Amex as payment method when signing in to iTunes for the first time?

Yup, I'm a Kiwi, living in sunny Blenheim. Just seems odd that I can use Amex for purchasing in the Apple store but not in the iTunes store. Perhaps the higher charge set by Amex is not economic for small purchases? Anyway,
I know now what to do now - buy an iTunes gift card and enter the activation code to redeem and sign up. Sorted! Thanks Kappy for taking an interest in my query.

Why can't I use and in the email address on my iPhone?

When in email address input mode, on iPhone, the < and > are not available. These characters are used to indicate an email address when a name is used as well. For example.... John Smith <[email protected]> This will add John Smith and his email address to my contact list, not on my phone, but in my email. Please tell me this will be possible when iOS7 comes out.
Thanks,
Eric
For now, the only way to do this is to go to the body of the email, enter the info John Smith <[email protected]> cut and paste it into the email address location.

Thank you! That worked... I didn't even remember I had that app on the phone .

Why can't I attach docs to my email, even when I'm in my mac or yahoo account when using an iPad. I'm thinking of returning it because it is a basic tool that isn't supported.

Why can't I attach files when writing an email, even when logged in to my mail account via safari, on my iPad. I'm thinking of retuning it as a big waste of time and money.

Except for the first response, all of you are unhelpful. The email was configured. Apple contacted me about the issue and said that the iPad cannot attach multiple docs to a single email regardless of whether the docs are located on the iCloud, in Pages, or a dropbox. It's operating system is not designed to do so (a stupid error if they are promoting the use of iPads for business and productivity, or even fields like architecture, design, and marketing, or even as an office alternative for remote use in meetings...which they are in professional consultations with offices). It also cannot do this through an alternate email site like a university server, yahoo, gmail, etc via Safari. Apple also cannot recommend a third party App that can do so. What they recommended, and there seems to be a lot of buzz about this being a problem with the iPad on the Internet, is that people go to their website, go to product feedback and go to enhancement requests and request the capacity to attach different types of files other than photos, and the capacity to attach multiple documents to an email. Basic functions...any email user would want. One of the Apple techs even thought it was implausible that they hadn't integrated this function ALREADY, when I called to set up the appointment.

Why can't I open new tabs. I can only have one tab at a time for when I hit the + button nothing happens

Since the last update (about a month or two ago) I have been unable open new tabs unless I find a webpage that takes me to a new link and therefore opens a new tab. It is highly annoying as I need to open multiple pages at once.

Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.

Why can't i receive iMessage as a text message when I am not connected to wifi?

My iphone currently does not have any data plans. I've noticed that when other iphone owner text me, and if I am not connected to a wifi, it doesn't come as text message and I must connect my phone to a wifi in order to receive what ever they sent. Which comes as an iMessage.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?

You have several choices:
1. Obtain a data plan for your iPhone, and do Settings > Messages > Send as SMS.
2. Use a cellular carrier that supports iMessage. A few (not many) do this.

Why can I not use mobile link in reader on window Vista?

Why can I not use mobile link in reader on window Vista?

Hi sze wing,
Please tell us a bit more--what do you mean by "cannot use"? Do you get an error message? Or are files not syncing as you expect?
Have you double-checked to make sure that Mobile Link is on? Please see Acrobat Help | Mobile Link: open once, read anywhere for instructions on enabling Mobile Link, if it isn't already enabled.
If it is enabled, and things still aren't working as expected, please let us know what issue you're facing, including any error messages.
Best,

Why can't I use iDisk for a back-up disk for Time Capsule?

G'Day All,
I am new to apple and mostly am loving it! Being new to this product has me asking some basic questions, like ... why can't I use iDisk for a back-up disk for Time Capsule?
Here I have something like 20 gb disk space available, but it seems I need to buy an external hard drive (or an airport) in order to use, what I believe is one of apples greatest inventions, the Time Machine...
Can anyone correct my flawed understanding or, better yet, teach me how to do it properly?
Cheers
Gabriel

Thank you Pondini.
Speed makes sense, but I thought I had plenty of size available ... never mind! Looking over some of the other posts, it looks as though I'd be better off with an external Hard drive than the Apple Time Capsule (if I want more than 12-18months service).
That was true of some of the ones made a couple of years ago (many of which Apple replaced way beyond the warranty period, and even some beyond the 3-year AppleCare period). Presumably Apple has fixed the power supply problem in the newer units, so they'll last longer.
If you don't have AppleCare for your Mac, I'd strongly suggest buying it. If you do, and buy a TimeCapsule, Airport, or other accessory within 2 years, it's covered, too.
But unless you need a wireless router, yes, paying for one in a Time Capsule doesn't make sense. A good external HD is a much better buy.
thank you for the links - I am still getting used to the way Apples work ...
If you haven't found these yet, you may find some handy tips here: http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/
