Why is the amber light glowing when touchpad is active on my Pavilion DV6

I thought that the amber lights was supposed to glow when the touchpad is turned off but I have just noticed that mine is glowing when active.

Yes, many times. Also I have reloaded the driver software and even tried other drivers from Synaptics web site too - all to no avail!!

Why does the amber light blink when the wifi is working

Why does the amber light blink on the airport extreme when the wifi seems to be working?

The AirPort Extreme has a message for you. To see it, open AirPort Utility and click directly on the amber dot.
What does the message say?

Why does the amber light stay on even though the WiFi works?

My WIFi just stopped yesterday.
Initially nothing worked. I then Restarted the router—then the Airport Extreme–NOTHING. I called Apple support. He had me push the re-start button and a few other things. I can now get on WIFi, but the amber light still stays on. Why? Although my Mac works great, my iPhone doesn't.
Any ideas?

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref:Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

Why does the clone stamp work when I go from a darker colour to a lighter colour but not the other way around. How can I lighten up a dark area? Lasso tool takes from the wrong area too.

Why do you use the Blend Modes Lighter and Darker at all in this case and not simply Normal?
And what kept you from posting a screenshot?
I borrowed the image below for an HDR workshop I ran at the 2010 PSNZ National Convention, to demonstrate a method of removing halos. You'll remember that halos were a serious problem with early HDR, and while the halos in this image were caused by over sharpening, they are perfect for demonstrating this technique.
It relies on the fact that halos so often tend to put a lighter tone between the two areas where sharpening is being applied. Whether that is the sky abutting a dark line of hills, or the rock and little tower as in this image. I've uploaded it at the size it was supplied to me at (about 2700 pixels wide). So
Click to open the full image, right click and copy, and paste into Photoshop.
Select the clone tool, and set its blend mode to Darken.
Try to sample on a line horizontal to where you want to clone, to give the best tonal match, and start cloning.
Because the sky is darker than the halo, it overwrites it. But the rock is darker than the sky, so it has no affect.
It works even better if you clone on a new layer also set to Darken. No masking, just Photoshop blend mode magic.
You can also fix the little tower. Use a great big brush — just remember to sample horizontal to match the horizon.
Back then I was using the same trick with CAs after forgetting to fix them in ACR, and having done too much work to start again after spotting the problem.

Why does the music go off when the screen light is off?

Why does the music go off when the sceen light goes off

This is usually an indication that your headphones/earbuds are not plugged all the way in. Double check the connection and make sure that no metal from the jack is showing.

Airport extreme blinking amber light error when connecting to new modem

I have just bought and installed a new modem gateway. It is an Arris TG852G DOC 3.0 model with a built in WiFi router.
After connecting it and activating it through Comcast, I reset, then reconnected my airport extreme MD0331LL/A Model No. A1408 to the new Arris
modem, I am getting blinking amber lights on the base station. I have internet connectivity, but I am still getting an amber light. My wireless devices (ipad and iphones) all see the old network name and id and seem to work just fine.
When I scanned for my airport base station in my airport utility (version 5.6.1) to try to resolve the error message I get
a message stating that the Airport Utility is not detecting any airport devices.
I cannot reset the default settings as these buttons do not work within the Airport Utility.
I suspect interference between the built in router in the Arris and I understand I need to operate it in bridge mode. Can you please help me fix this.
The COMCAST people are extremely unhelpful, and stated that this is not their problem but a problem with my router
as they have provifded me internet connectivity through the modem and the issue is my problem.

Try connecting an Ethernet cable from your computer directly to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to see if AirPort Utility can detect the AirPort Extreme that way.
If yes, click on the AirPort Extreme and then click directly on the word Status (2nd line on the summary page)
A window will open to explain why the amber light is blinking
If the message indicates that you need to configure the AirPort in Bridge Mode......
Click the Internet icon at the top of the window
Click the Internet Connection tab just below
Change the setting for Connection Sharing to Off (Bridge Mode)
Click Update at the lower right of the window to save the new setting and restart the AirPort Extreme
You can disconnect the Ethernet cable that you were using to configure the AirPort Extreme now
It would be a good idea to power off both the Arris gateway and the AirPort Extreme now
Wait a minute
Start the Arris first, and let it run a full minute
Start the AirPort Extreme next the same way
You should be all set

I am connected to the internet, but the amber light keeps flashing. What is wrong?

What is wrong with my Airport express when the amber light keeps flashing, even though I am connected to the internet?

The AirPort Express has a message for you.
To find out what it is......
Open AirPort Utility, select the Express, click Manual Setup
Click directly on the word Status (3rd line)
A window will open with details about why the Express is complaining.

I just replaced my airport extreme and now the amber light on my airport express is flashing and so it is not being recognized. I have been on the computer and gone to airport utility and it is simply not showing up at all. What can I do?

Anytime you change networking hardware it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of that hardware. Check out the following AirPort User Tip for details. Please post back your results.

My Time Capsule does not recognize internet after DSL problem. I can hard wire my computer but cannot get TC to do wireless. How do I reset? I have unplugged for a reboot but the amber light is flashing.

I had a problem with DSL service provider. They have corrected their problem but now, I can only hard wire into my desktop for internet access. If I plug in through the Time Capsule, I get no wireless service. I unplugged the Time Capule and rebooted but now the amber light is blinking tellimg me that it cannot access internet. So, I have hard wired back to my Mac and need to know how to get the Time Capsue to recognize the internet when I plug into it.

Start with a factory reset and do setup over again.
If the DSL modem is working as router.. which will be the case for most people then the TC must be in bridge mode..
The Factory Reset.
Power down the TC.
Hold in reset. and keep holding it in. Be Gentle! It is a tiny surface mount switch with a plastic lever.. Attempting to push it out the other side of the TC will not make the switch turn on better.
(I fix TC and have several reset levers bent over and jammed or broken off).
Power on the TC.. remember with the reset held in.. this needs three arms.. a friend or power switch you can get to with your feet..
Keep holding in reset for about 10sec until the front LED flashes rapidly.
Release reset and wait .. the boot will be slow as it deletes previous setting.. only from router side and pulls out the factory defaults. No files are deleted on the hard disk.. but the name of the TC may change.

Hi, My Apple TV 1st generation is showing the apple logo and the amber light keeps blinking, after a while it shows a little Apple TV with a question mark blinking on top, any ideas?

Well my question says it all. I wasn´t using the apple tv, but noticed that the amber light started to blink, so I put it on the tv and there was the apple logo. I did the recory with the "MENU" + "-" button, but came back the same. After a while it showed a little Apple TV image with a "?" mark blinking on top. I disconected it the whole night but today is doing the same. Is like it got stuck on the restart. Can anyone help me?

Fixed it after trying everything listed here with no success.
First you will need to make sure you have the ability to connect your ATV box directly to your router via a cable. This issue is directly related to networking from my experience and once connected to wifi you will have a nightmare of a time to complete the fix.
1. Make sure you have NO network connection to the ATV box.
2. Hard reboot ATV using remote (aim remote at device and hold "menu" and "down/minus" until amber light blinks)
3. When ATV reboots to a diagnostic menu select "Factory Restore"
4. After Restore has completed select a language
5. You cannot skip the the wifi selection screen without setting up a connection, however: DO NOT SETUP WIFI! Instead plug in the direct cable to your router, and hit the menu button on your remote. You will see "connecting to network."
6 Once you are past the start up splash video you will eventually arrive at the connect to itunes screen which will start looping the apple logo and a new code about every 2 seconds. Disconnect the network cable.
7. After a few seconds the loop will stop. Press the menu button to skip the itunes connection (you will be able to do it later.)
8. At the following menu go to Settings > Screen Saver > Set delay for "Never"
9. Go back to the main menu, then go to Settings > Network > Configure TCP/IP > Click on "Using DHCP"
9. Click "Done"
10. Connect cable to router, and then proceed with updating your ATV.
After I was updated the problem did not return.
I have completed this solution personally twice on the same unit. After getting updated and stable, I recovered my ATV again, and had the same problems again. Repeated these steps and good to go.
Hope this helps someone, and good luck!

I just bought a new Motorola modem. Do I need to reconfigure my Airport Express? For some reason we have WiFi even though the amber light is blinking.

Red light glows when plugged in, but device wont respond

I've had the red Curve for nearly a year now. Today I accidentally knocked it off of my desk onto the carpet. It was not a hard fall, but when I picked the device up it seemed to have turned off. It would not turn back on viathe power button, so I attempted tor emove the battery. As I struggled with the back of the device, it seemed to start working again. I got the white screen with the hourglass that usually comes with the reinsertion of the battery. However, when I finally removed the battery and put it back in, the device would not respond. I plugged it in to the AC charger and the light glowed red for a few seconds, but the phone did not respond otherwise. Every time I unplug it and plug it back in, the red light glows but nothing else happens. I tried putting in a different battery but it didn't help. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my blackberry? do I need to simply leave it plugged in?

it's black. There seems to be nothing wrong with it except that the light turns red when I plug it in and it simply wont respond when I press buttons. There is nothing rattling inside and nothing seems broken at all. I heard that when phones are dropped, they may lose their battery power. Does this happen? If this is what happened, shouldn't the light then be green?

HT4847 Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

I found the solution .,,,
1) click on your current plan and press done your payment details will appear .
2) the first section is your plan and there is a botton "change" click on it
3) it will take you back to the upgrade options
4) press on the downgrade options
5) choose the 5 GB and the done botton will be enabled
6) click on it you'll back to the step number 2 , here read carefully you'll see that your changes will take effect after the current plan expired with the date.
