Why does location manager always reports kCLErrorLocationUnknown in simulator?

As the subject says the location manager is always sending the kCLErrorLocationUnknown error in the simulator. I've tried changing the accuracy and it didn't help.
Here is the code:
     locmanager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
     [locmanager setDelegate:self];
     [locmanager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer];
     [locmanager startUpdatingLocation];
This always calls didFailWithError with error kCLErrorLocationUnknown.
Any idea of what is wrong?
TIA,
FR

I read somewhere that apple doesn't use skyhook any more
Googling bears this out, but I can't find a way to manually update the Apple DB. Which must mean that Apple does it magically. Try allowing your iPhone to get a precise GPS position and then use it over your WiFi access point to download an app or song from the iTune store.

Because the owners of the songs have not licensed them for sale in the U.S.
Apple doesn't have any say in the matter. it's up to the owner of the distribution rights for the music.

HT4623 Hi why does my itunes always say "error contacting server" when i update my iPhone 5 with the iOs 6.1.3 update

Hi why does my itunes always say "error contacting server" when i update my iPhone 5 (iOs 6.0.2) with the iOs 6.1.3 update?

Hey Tigergirl17,
Thanks for the question. If you haven't already done so, you may want to update iTunes to v11.1 (released on Sept 18th). After updating iTunes, you can then update your iPhone 5 to iOS 7.

Why does favicon not always download on PC ... whereas it does on Mac?

Why does favicon not always download on PC ... whereas it does on Mac?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Why does App Store always crash when I try to open the appliction?

Why does App Store always crash when I try to open the appliction?

You don't have the typical symptoms that I associate the following issue with (normally the error kicks in just when folks visit the Store), but just in case try gn_id's suggestion from the following post:
Re: iTunes 11 crashes when opening the store - no error message

MSI Afterburner - why does my beta copy reports it's expiring?

Afterburner V2.2 beta - why does my beta copy reports it's expiring?
Do we have another software alternative other than AFterburner for the GTX 560 Ti Hawk?

This is not entirely correct. Only if you reset the system date you extend the expiration date, otherwise you'll get an error message like this.
and the program does not start.
Every beta has a limited time period to work.The expiration date of the 2.2beta8 is 27/11/2011.
But until then it'll be a new version released. So stay cool, or use the non-expiring version 2.1, or go back to the future with your system time.

Why does my ipad always says CANNOT CONNECT TO ITUNES STORE even when i got all the internet connections needed?

Check to make sure you don't have your restrictions turned on, which may be preventing your access to iTunes.
Tap on the settings icon, then tap General, then check to see if you have restrictions turned to ON. If so turn it off.

Why does location services not work on my ipad2 with ios7?

Why does my wifi only iPad 2 location serves not work...worked for years, even when I traveled extensively and returned home. I loaded ios7plus and went out West for the holidays. Worked out West and on return, did not...live in country and worked when I took it to Mickey d's six miles away. Only change is ios7 and it's default to Apple maps. Apple support claimed to have passed this to engineering, but despite my follow ups with them using my case number, they have left me in limbo with a silent phone. This is very wrong and not the apple I have known...very frustrated.

Cause Wi-Fi only iPads do not have GPS receivers in them, nor can they use the cell towers for triangulating position. Best they can do is guesstimate based on the hotspots they are connecting to. They base their guess on a database of known hotspots, which can be incomplete, erroneous or wildly inaccurate. The rise of the problem can be due to any change you or your ISP has done to the Wi-Fi setup you use.
If you need to depend on critical apps that require reliable Location Services, get Wi-Fi+Cell devices next time. They can be used without a SIM chip with no problems (and not paying for cell charges), but GPS will work fine.

Why does Application Manager say "Try" for Acrobat XI Pro?

If I have a Creative Cloud subscription, why does the Application Manager say "Try" for the Acrobat XI Pro app? Shouldn't I be able to upgrade my existing X Pro version? I have tried in the past, but it will not work after download.

Re-reading my post from Saturday, I thought I could add some more detail about what I am actually seeing.
When I launch Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.2, the standard Acrobat window providing options for the next actions I can take with Acrobat - Open a file, combine files into a PDF, etc. - appears briefly and then Adobe Application Manager launches automatically. AAM shows me a window labeled "Adobe Acrobat XI." At the top of the window area is the title "Serial Number Upgrade," and the text below that headline states, "Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer." It goes on to state, "To use this serial number, you must own one of these qualifying products. Please choose the one you own and enter its serial number."
Below that there is a drop-down menu titled "Select a product," which lists the following products:
Adobe Acrobat X Standard
Adobe Acrobat XI Standard
Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard
Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard
Adobe Acrobat X Pro Macintosh
Adobe Acrobat X Pro Windows
Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional Macintosh
Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional Windows
Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional Macintosh
Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Windows
Adobe Acrobat 3D V8
Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended
Adobe Acrobat X Suite
Next to this drop-down menu is a text entry block for the serial number.
Below that is the text, "If you have registered products in the past, you can go to you account page to find your serial number. Contact Customer Support for further assistance."
My next step will probably be to do another complete uninstall and reinstall to see if that changes anything.

Why does iphone not always pick up signal in new city?

I just flew to Vegas, Phoenix and Atlanta. Each time, iphone did not acquire signal on landing for minutes (at least), but immediately picked it up when I powered down and powered back on. What is the technical reason for this, and why does turning the phone off and on help to re-establish connection? I realize this issue is not unique to iphones, but I've never understood why it happens.

palmerimoots,
Whether or not GSM signals from any cellular phone will cause a plan to crash is not the point. The point is the FAA requires devices that have not been certified by the FAA not radiate in any radio frequency. Airplane mode was designed to comply with those rules and regulations. I don't have confirmation, but comparing my battery life on a trip this last week to my mothers to back in late July the iPhone seemed to have better battery life in a No Service area. I personally suspect that after being in a No Service area for a while the iPhone will stop searching as frequently. When you power off the iPhone or put it in Airplane mode for a few minutes and then come out of Airplane mode the iPhone will search for signal.
There is a limited waiver in place for WiFi for some airlines that are experimenting with offering WiFi, but that does not extend to the GSM frequencies.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Why does Application Manager show up in Japanese?

I have been having problems with the Application Manager always showing up in Japanaese making it very hard for this English speaker to figure out what I'm trying to download. I have tried re-installing the software to no avail.
This is on a MacBook Air running 10.8.2 Mountain Lion.
Any thoughts on how to fix this so that I can download applications?

Why does my trackpad always show 100% in system preferences?

I read where someone is having the exact problem but with the keyboard instead. A widget was suggested as a work around but is it a problem with Lion or is there something else I could do to fix it. Thanks

I can only hope Apple read these things and look into it.
Thanks anyway.
Do try uk-max's suggestion. Othewise, keep an eye on the battery level that does work so you don't wind up with a dead battery and can't re-pair it (because the battery is dead.....).
FWIW, Apple is aware of the issue; I sent in a bug report - I've heard of several being stuck at 57%, some at 100%. On mine, it was always the wrong percentage showing in the Bluetooth menu bar.
For anyone else: we are not discussing laptop batteries, but the battery level of the magic trackpad (or mouse, for that matter) - both are bluetooth, both have batteries, and there has been a problem showing the correct battery level for both.

Why does Startup Manager only show Recovery HD and not my other drives like Macintosh HD and my USB drive?

I'm not really sure what happened to my Mac but when I start it, it only shows Recovery HD and nothing else. I tried re-installing Mountain Lion through my Apple ID but it states that I have not purchased it and will not let me proceed. I have bought a usb drive that has Mountain Lion, since I cannot purchase it in the apple store, on it to install it from there but I cannot boot into my USB because it only shows "Recovery HD" in Startup Manager. I would really appreciate some input from you all, thank you for your time in advance.

Either your drive is failing or has been corrupted. Please try the following. You cannot do the following unless you have purchased Lion or later. From your post that's not clear. Without knowing your exact model I cannot tell you what to do.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
If your computer is a 2010 or earlier model, then you should be able to do the following:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Why does my Firefox crash reporter hang?

Please help as Firefox is my preferred browser followed by Opera and Chrome in that order
Frequent Firefox crashes are disruptive of my workflow which is very web-dependent
STEPWISE:
1. I have frequent crashes
2. The Crash Reporter comes up
3. Submit report is enabled
4. I select QUIT or RESTART - a rotating symbol shows the reporter is trying to do something BUT NOTHING HAPPENS
5. I close the Reporter window
6. I try to run Firefox again: That brings up the reporter panel again.
7. THE ONLY WAY I CAN OPEN FIREFOX AGAIN IS TO REBOOT MY COMPUTER.
8. I switch to OPERA browser to access Mozilla support
9. I follow instructioins:
If you can't open Firefox because it crashes at startup even in Safe Mode:
Go to ~/.mozilla/firefox/Crash Reports/submitted.
10. That brings up a long list of "Reports submitted" all with the following format and all sized 50B containing ZERO INFORMATION
bp-06def14b-da8b-450e-8157-7ae252141029.txt plain text document 50 B 29/10/2014 21:33:34
11. Before posting this question I tried to "Automatically add" troubleshooting information - which only brought up the dysfunctioning trouble shooter again!
12. The link to "try these manual steps" brought up a fresh "Ask a Question" window - presumably because it attempted to open in Firefox instead of OPERA which I'm using to log this this report since I'll have to reboot before being able to use Firefox again.
SYSTEM INFO:
OS: Ubuntu 14.04 - fully updated
Mozilla Firefox 33.0 (Info via Terminal since Firefox is stalled)
Plugins: Zotero, AdBlock Plus, Print edit, Download Helper (from memory since FF is stalled)
I use Thunderbird 31.2.0 for email - Firefox DOES NOT bring Thunderbird down with it when both are running
BUT Thunderbird also crashes unexpectedly but not nearly as often as Firefox

Is it possible to start Firefox in Safe Mode, I do understand that the frequent crashes are disrupting and after a crash that Firefox will not open, you need to restart the computer.
In about:config are there any changed about:config entries related to the crash report: browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash
However in the meantime I will see what I can find.

When there are several tabs open, why does the search always take place on the 2nd tab (the first tab seems never to change from the home page) despite my selecting a different tab in which to do a google search?

I have Mozilla Firefox 10.0. When I open it, it correctly opens on the homepage in the first tab. Once I have another, or several, tabs open, no matter which tab is active, any google search I do immediately takes place in tab No 2. It doesn't seem to matter how many times I go to e.g. tab 4 to do a search (because I wish to compare with the webpage open in tab 2), yet it always now does the search in tab 2. This is very irritating. There must be some setting that has gone pear-shaped, but where/which? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />
