Why won't my eMc boot when I install a new Airport Express Card?

I just tried to install an Airport Express Card into my eMac. After each time I reseated and then turned on the power, my eMac would not boot. It boots fine without the card, any ideas or suggestions?

There's a possibility that the card id defective and should be exchanged, but a stronger possibility that the Airport Extreme card (Airport Express is a different, external device) isn't actually seated quite all the way. Many posters in the eMac forums have noted that it takes a suprising amount of force to fully seat the card and to get it to move the last millimeter or whatever into the slot. You need to press the card to just short of where the eMac chassis starts moving away from you on your desk or table.

Why won't my ipod charge when i use my new usb

why won't my ipod charge when i use my new usb is used?

A new USB what? Cable? If the old one still works and the new one does not that would point to a bad new cable.

Why won't my windows 8 pc connect to my new airport extreme

Both I phones, ipad and 2 MacBooks are connected. Pc recognizes network but won't conmect. I named the network the same as last router.

The iDevices have a user-friendly feature that detects and connects to the Airport - you can also configure it this way.
When you set up the Airport Extreme you would have specified a password and password type (the default I believe is WPA2).
On your Windows device when you click on the Airport Wireless Network on your system tray (bottom right) do you get the password prompt?
If not, right-click the WiFi icon on the system tray and go to Open Network and Sharing Center>Manage Wireless Network and then click right-click the WiFi network there and click on remove - This will remove settings for it that are on your machine.
Then go back to your task tray and single-click the WiFi icon and try and connect again. Hopefully you'll get the password prompt and be able to enter the key/password to access your WiFi.
If not, let me know.

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. When I use the new airport express network I created error message says ip address is wrong. Help setting this new airport express up

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. Using the new airport express network I just set up it says the ip address is invalid. What can I do to overcome this blinking amber light and error messages?

You need to begin by configuring the AEX to Join an existing network (Bridge Mode.) You can then connect to it using Wi-Fi, but the AEX will not extend your existing network.
If you can connect the AEX to your existing router using Ethernet, then you could use it to Create a new network. Otherwise, if you want to extend your existing network you will need to get a Wireless Access Point - WAP - from a non-Apple product like D-Link.

Why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

I'm not sure if this answers your question. I will update them in iTunes. Then I will connect my phone and in the phone controls I can click the "Update" button and it will change to "Will Update" but doesn't.
That's part of the problem. Once upon a time, iTunes would just automatically update apps from the computer to the phone and now it apparently requires prompting that doesn't work.

Why won't my screen turn when the phone does?

Not all apps support screen rotation. The Home screens do not rotate. But also check to make sure you have not locked screen rotation. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the Control Center and check that rotation lock is not on.

You're welcome.
Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

Hey there Ray_J,
I understand that you want iTunes to be opening every time you connect your phone to your computer. You may wish to adjust this setting in your iTunes preferences to affect this behavior:
Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically
Prevent devices from automatically syncing with this iTunes library when a device is connected. To sync a device, click the Sync button when the device is connected.
iTunes 12 for Mac: iTunes Devices preferences
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH19595
If this is unchecked, iTunes will open automatically when you connect an iOS device. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

You posted this in the iPhone forum. Check in Control Center (swipe up from the home screen) and see if the rotation lock is turned on there (an icon of a lock with a circled arrow).

Why won't my ipod pause when I turn off the ignition in my car? It used to.

Why won't my ipod pause when I turn off the ignition in my car? It used to.

How is the iPod connected to your car stereo?, (via earphone jack or iPod dock connector)
By "pause" you mean that now it is playing thru your car stereo, while previously, it stopped playing thru your car stereo, when you switch off the ignition?
Anyway, I don't think it is an iPod problem, but you can try the
iPod Hard Reset -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON.
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
refer to this Apple supprt Article on the 5Rs
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
This reset wont delete any of your songs, just put all the settings back to when you first took it out of the box.

HT1338 my 5th generation ipod won't sync anymore to my PowerMac G4. It worked fine, but when I installed a new hard drive it won't work anymore.

my 5th generation ipod won't sync anymore to my PowerMac G4. It worked fine, but when I installed a new hard drive it won't work anymore. I've re-installed iTunes, the latest version for Tiger, I've reset and restored my iPod. The ipod shows up fine in the source banner and I can transfer files to it, however when I unplug the iPod the files are not there.

Maybe try to repair the iPod's HD using Disk Utility located in the Applications -> Utilities folder. If that doesn't help, try a low level reformat of the drive using the same application. Make sure you choose Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) as the file system format.

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.
