  • I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad.  I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad.  I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

    I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad.  I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad.  I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

    Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific.  but ...
    it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
    Try this:
    turn you keyboard off
    on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
    if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
    now reset your iPad:  hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
    After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
    now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
         if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
    touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
    touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.

  • Why does opening some links in Firefox causes a "Server Error in '/' Application Runtime Error" but not in "Internet Explorer"?

    When I click on some links in an email (and Firefox is the default browser) I get the following error:
    Server Error in '/' Application.
    Runtime Error
    Description: An exception occurred while processing your request. Additionally, another exception occurred while executing the custom error page for the first exception. The request has been terminated.
    If, however, I click the same links (and Internet Explorer is the default browser) I do not get any error and the proper content of the link is displayed.
    What is causing this error? As I prefer Firefox, how can this problem be fixed?
    OS Windows 7, Service Pack 1
    Firefox Version 32.0.1
    Internet Explorer Version 11.0.9600.17280
    Thank you for your assistance.

    When you look at the address in the address bar, does it seem to match up with the email?
    Sounds like Firefox sent the server something it wasn't expecting. Sometimes this can be caused by obsolete or corrupted cookies -- assuming you have visited the site before. It also might be caused by modifications to standard information sent to servers such as the "user agent" string that specifies your browser version and OS.
    To clear a site's cookies, while viewing a page on the site, either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?

    Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?
    And By hard boot I mean holding the home and power button down at the same time for 10 seconds or whatever
    I see other people have these grainy flash photographs if you try to take a picture in darkness the picture comes out very dark and grainy I thought the software would ultimately fix this but it's been going on for over a year I usually take my photographs in daylight but I need this to be fixed
    If it is a hardware issue I hope Apple will replace my iPhone 5 because I was just waiting for one of the iOS updates to fix it I bought my phone in November 2012 its the iPhone 5
    Please help or advise if you can was this just a software or hardware issue I know Apple was aware of it but I was advised that iOS update would fix it but obviously not
    Is it safe to do a hard boot on my iPhone five by holding the power and home button at the same time for 10 or 20 seconds I saw someone said that fixed there's at least temporarily
    I'm typing this on my iPhone five right now why do the words go off to the left and right no matter if I hold the phone vertical or horizontal the words bleed off to left right so for me to proofread it I have to move my text left to right to proof read it
    Thank you

    The flash on a smartphone camera is tiny. It only lights up a very small area right in front of the camera. It won't light up the whole scene.
    Have you seen the size of the flash on a professional camera? Even they can't light a whole scene in the dark.
    Fact is, a smartphone camera is not capable of taking good photos in the dark, even with the flash.
    You'll need to buy and learn how to use a professional, dedicated SLR camera to be able to take good photos in the dark. It is not easy.

    Hi pa_tom,
    In your printers folder on your computer, is the default printer set to your printer, or your printer- fax?

  • Why does ical print out starting tuesday?

    Why does ical print out staring the week on tuesday?
    Maybe the week starts one day later for the Yosemite dev team, but certainly not in my neck of the woods.
    The actual print out also looks nothing like the new matt and  'flat' graphic style of Yosemite.
    I suggest you start on monday next week and sort these issues out.
    Sunny

    For many people that is the correct option. If you think it should be different, tell Apple, as they aren't listening here.

  • Why does FireFox open as a very small box in the top l/h corner and i have to resize it every time

    Why does FireFox open as a very small box in the top l/h corner and i have to resize it every time this only occurs on the initial opening up of F/Fx after boot-up

    Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

  • Why does my printe say "used supply in use" 1217nfw

    Why does my printe say "used supply in use" model m1217nfw

    Hello,
    The "Used Supply in Use" means that the printer believes the toner cartridges installed in the printer have been previously used in another printer.
    Have you recently changed the toner cartridge on this printer? Are you having issues printing?
    Remember if you find any of my post helpful or want to say thanks make sure to click the white star under my name to give me Kudos.
    I really appreciate it!
    You should be able to still print without problems even though the message comes up.
