    Why does the calender do not show the right time if you want to choose 10, 11, 12 o'clock or any other time with 1x:00? It only shows 1:00 and there is no way to change the time to 1x:00.

    Ok well you need to get your facts straight. You say the reason to upgrade to OS 4 but half of these have to do with the new iPhone 4 and not the OS. Two totally different issues

    When I connect my iPod touch to my computer, I have a list of Events on my iTunes-iPod-Photos. I want to erase these Events. However, the photos are NOT on my MacBook Air-iPhoto. When I check one of the Events and then hit Apply, the photos appear on my iPod. And one last thing: When I connect the iPod and open iPhoto, iPhoto tries to load New Photos (I think), but nothing happens. Any ideas?

  • Why is the software update not showing up in general settings?

    Why does my software update not show up in general settings?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
    You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Why does the external drive not show up on the desktop.

    My wife has a G5 (iSight). When we turn on the external drive it does not mount. We have tried restarting the iMac with the external drive on and it still does not show up. What is the problem and what is the fix?
    Thanks

    Is it by chance a WD MyBook? They are known for problems like that. Could be the cable -- try a different one. Or it could be the Firewire port on the computer. Try a different port on the computer or on the external, if it has one. Have a look at this Apple article with other troubleshooting steps.

  • HT4628 The Wifi does not work when Macbook Air is started by Win8. How to let the Wifi work in Win8 ?

    Hi all,
    WIFI of Macbook Air works when the notebook started with OS X.
    But when I restart the Macbook Air with Win8, the Wifi does not work.
    The Macbook Air was bought last month. It is new model. The wifi may be a/c.
    Thanks,

    hey zyzzyxx, you're not the only one with this issue. it happens to me too. as soon as i unplug my cintiq via thunderbolt display my connection shoots straight back to having 20mbps down. i checked it using a speedtest.
    ever find a fix for it?

  • Why is First Generation iPad not connecting to MacBook Air?

    We received our daughter's first generation iPad. Whenever I connect it to the new MacBook Air the iPad will keep beeping, and give a message that "this iPhone is not longer connected to itunes" The beeping continues.
    It connects OK to my Macbook Pro, but I don't want to sync it with the MacBook Pro.
    I re-installed iTunes on the MacBook Air and then plugged in the iPad and got the message that the USB port was being disconnected because there was too much power draw on that port. The only USB connection is the iPad.
    Any ideas on what this could be? I'm using a newer cable, the iPad was 45% charged. Is there some limitation of the power draw on the MacBook Air? Is this older iPad drawing more power than the MacBook Air is capable of?

    - Macbook Air is plugged into external power
    - I cleaned the connections on the iPad and on the cable
    - Nothing changed, still get the USB power message and/or the message from iTunes that the device is no longer connected.

    This tiny site:: http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl ，into the search bar i pasted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoICzQpVCeA And then clicked "get flv url" Button，and the page loaded as expected,and i got the address of the .flv file. Good,
    But, the string in the location bar did not change，still http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl
    Viewing the page source of http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl , I found::

    then, just trying, I typed into the location bar:: http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl?url=http: … oICzQpVCeA
    the newly loaded page was different than that of http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl, BUT,
    it's not the result page，but looked just like the page of http://flv.appspot.com/flvurl with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoICzQpVCeA pasted into the search bar，and, with the "get flv url" Button NOT pressed yet.

  • Why is the Time remaining not showing up screen?

    When listening to music the time remaining doesn't show up on the screen. It does show up on my iPhone 4S but not iPod Touch.Why is that?

    Because you need to tap the Now Playing screen so that the time scrubber bar is overlayed onto the artwork.
