  • I install latest update from my ipad 2, after the upgrade tablet running slowly. Probably the system requirements too high for my device. I think that users with older models should be able to install IOS 6.x.x on their devices or consider buying devices

    I install latest update from my ipad 2, after the upgrade tablet running slowly. Probably the system requirements too high for my device. I think that users with older models should be able to install IOS 6.x.x on their devices or consider buying devices from other manufacturers ...
    People are dissatisfied with the new update a lot, including some of my friends and acquaintances. Is it reasonable to wait until Apple implements the possibility to return to Ios Ios 6 to 7? And how soon it can be done?
    Sorry for my english, i am from Russia.

    I have a similar issue. I recently purchased an iPad Mini, and I started off by backing it up from the apps I had on my iPhone. Now, I have a number of apps that never downloaded and that I don't want on the iPad. Some of these are apps that I don't need, while others are the iPhone versions of apps. There are something like 23 apps that I have no use for, but iTunes tries to install every time I connect. I've also tried clicking the 'Will Install' buttons. There's no way to delete these apps from the iPad without first installing them, as far as I can see, and there's no way to NOT install them, in iTunes.
    It''s not just annoying, it's causing problems with installation of larger files and movies. Now, every time I sync to the computer, I get a warning that I'm over capacity by 580 MB, and larger apps will not install! Clicking Revert and a bunch of other things doesn't work, either. And I can't just delete some of the apps, because I or my wife use them on our phones!

  • Is PB compatible with older models of BB smartphone

    I`m have bought and waiting for delivery of my new PB. I was going to upgrade my phone,but now that i`ve bought a PB, felt that I wouldn`t have to now. So, is the PB compatible with all of the older BB smartphones, or are there features that will be lost if you don`t have a newer smartphone
    Thanks

    To agree with what Peter stated, to use the Bridge app, you must have OS5 or greater on the handheld BlackBerry.
    I don't recall that the 8100 model ever got OS5... i don't think so.

  • Icloud set up help...on windows 7 with older macs in house

    Hello
    Thanks for any help...I am trying to get my photos backed up to the cloud.
    I hope I got this right
    I went to sign up and it said I needed at least a windows PC or a mac that is a later version OS
    than my 10.6.8 and 10.5.0
    does this mean i can do the initial set up on my pc and then use it on my 10.5.O mac to upload my pictures to
    the cloud...most my photos are on 10.5.0 mac mini...
    OR do i have to have a different icloud account for mac and windows?
    Thanks I am so confused as to how to save my photos before I get a new mac and time capsule...
    i lost them all before and thankfully they were backed up to a drive...
    I want to secure these photos the best way I can as so many loved ones have passed away...
    Thanks...any help would be so appreciated...I don't mind paying for extra cloud storage if i know those
    photos are safe...
    and that I can set up on windows 7 and use it on my older macs
    Rose

    iCloud doesn't backup your photos, so there'd be no point trying to use that.
    Use Dropbox, OneDrive or Google Drive.
    Dropbox works on OS X 10.5.8 at least, so that may be your best option.

  • 3.0 - Bluetooth now works with older model BMW cars

    Unexpected bonus - After upgrading to 3.0 I decided to try pairing the iPhone to my 2004 BMW 530d and it works perfectly. Previous to this it would only pair with my wife's newer 2008 120d.

    Another one here with 2nd gen ipod touch. Immediately after the 3.0 upgrade, my wifi can't get mail. Sending works, as dose Net access, but all my mail accounts no longer come in seamlessly as they did before the upgrade. One does intermittently, but even that one has failed more often than not. Friends are having the same problem. Reset/restore has done nothing. Apple Store Genius also tried to no avail. Help, Apple! Will a 3.0.1 fix the bug?

  • Problem with shared HP930C printer on home network

    We have 2 networked computers at home -- one is Windows XP with an HP930C printer attached, the other is Windows Vista 32-bit with a Canon iP3600 attached.  Both printers are shared across the network.  Both computers will print to the Canon printer.  We used to able to use the HP printer from both computers.  Then it was detached for many months, and now we cannot use it from the Vista computer.
    The HP printer can be seen from Control Panel of both computers.  But when we try to print from Vista, a dialog box appears and disappears so quickly that it cannot be read -- nothing appears in the printer queue and nothing prints.  I downloaded and ran the HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility on the Vista computer, but it did not find the HP printer.
    I've checked everything I can think of, and I've run out of ideas.  Can anyone help, please?

    Hello freemcb, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing connectivity issues.  I would like to help.
    I would recommend powering down the printer and computers.  Once they are off, I would recommend removing the power cord from the router and waiting 60 seconds.  After the alloted time, plug the router back in and let it broadcast, then power on the printer and computers.
    I would also recommend utilizing this document on Wireless Printing Center Troubleshooting Issues.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Will Mountain Lion work with old models of Time Capsule?

    I was using an online backup service but it slowed down my machine so I want to go to an external drive backup. I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and I am thinking of purchasing an older version of Time capsule for my backups. My question is will mountain lion work with older models of Time Capsule? thanks so much.....

    Yes. I have a first generation Time Capsule and it works fine.
    Just make sure you buy at least 3 times the GB you are trying to backup. More is better.

  • Is it possible to use an older model Dell printer (wired) with a HP wireless laptop?

    I am using an HP Pavillion laptop computer with Windows 7 at home. I am connected to a wireless printer (Canon 3 in 1). I have to leave town & go to my aunt's house in another city. She has no computer setup at her house, but we have wireless router there so I can use my laptop.
    Can I take my old Dell printer (which I used when I had a desktop), plug it into my laptop (I assume I'll have to also install printer) & use it there (without it being wireless, etc.?). The ink should still be viable but it has been several months since I've used it. I need to know if it would be worthwhile to take my old printer with me & be able to set it up & use it. If so, is it possible to use a laptop (I use wireless at my aunt's house) with a hard-wired printer? And would it be hard to set up?
    Bottom line is, I'm selling stuff on Ebay this week, I have to make an emergency trip to help family, & will probably have to lug items (and print out shipping labels) while I'm there. I thought it might be useful to have in the long run a printer (albeit an older model) that I can use while helping out family in another city.
    I'm sure I'm leaving out some info but if you think you need more to answer my question, let me know.... thank you in advance.
    This question was solved.

    If I read this right, you can install your wired printer right now and test it out.  Then go on your trip and just plug in back into your computer and it will work just fine.

    Hello Everyone,
              I have a MacBook older model with me.I am running 10.7.6 on that, I was trying to use BootCamp to install windows on my mac. Since BootCamp can only work on a single Volume, I partitioned my Hard Disk to one volume.
    Using BootCamp I installed windows and everything worked fine. After installing windows and testing everything, I switched back to OS X and this time I tried to make another partition on my single portioned Mac volume and named it Backup. That too worked. Now I have three Volumes
    1)Development2)Backup3)BootCamp.
    Next when I switched to Windows, It should the classic error, No Bootable device found, please insert a Bootable CD and press any key. When I tried to enter my Mac OS X install DVD and by pressing option key, it does not show me the proper Mac OS X development volume. It keeps going back to the No bootable device found message.
    Any help will be much appreciated
    Regards
    Mithun

    you can't add a partition in between - you put Windows to a new partition number.
    GPT (GUID)
    EFI
    Mac HFS
    Lion Recovery
    Windows
    And now you have two HFS
    One partition and one Windows (plus Lion Recovery).
    If you were to have more, it can't be before Windows for one thing.

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    Cisco vpn client..
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/239113
    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

  • Help with setting up printer - works fine on windows!

    Hi
    Firstly any help is much appreciated!
    I have an AirPort Express Station with a HP Deskjet D2360 attached to the USB port.
    I have 3 Windows XP Printers that all print fine.
    My PowerBook, with Leopard, can located and install the Bonjour printer (using the drivers that came with Leopard). However when I print a document it appears in the printers job list then says it is complete. However the printer does nothing. I've attached the printer directly to my PowerBook and it works fine with the pre-installed drivers. The airtunes function of the airport also works fine from the PowerBook.
    Thanks again
    Chris
