iTUNES 12.7 BANDAI TECH-PET iPhone APP Download Problem

This video is about iTUNES 12.7 BANDAI TECH-PET iPhone APP Download Problem

If you've upgrade your iTunes to 12.7 you need to watch this to get the background issue and Part 2 to understand the fix.

fixed1t Apple Mac Support

Apple Developers of iTUNES 12.7, have done away with the really useful iPAD, iPhone and iPod APP's management Pages.

Although This Appeared To Be A Minor Inconvenience, My Recent Purchase of a really cool 2013 Classic "BONDAI Dog TechPet" from JAPAN  has Identified Some Serious Failings With iTunes 12.7 

Although this problem came about with the BANDAI TechPet APP it is not specific to the APP and applies to any APP registered only on a single countries APP Site.  In this case it was an APP on the Apple Japan site.

SOPHOS Anti-Virus For Apple Computers

I'd used SOPHOS on the PC very successfully for many years, so I thought I'd give it a try out on my Apple MacBook Pro.  I had problems installing it on SIERRA due to the Apple OSX increased security since OSX9 and the SOPHOS instruction were somewhat vague.

In my usual #fixed1tMACsupport manner I set out finding a good way to get over the installation bug.



Here is the fix:



Once SOPHOS is installed correctly, as shown in the video above, then it works like a charm.

I ran it overnight and it worked its way through over 32 million files.  Not only does it spot and kill viruses but it also finds and removes adware and sneaky programs, it found Genieo on my system:


Its one of those programs that claims to be useful but isn't and is a bugger to remove.  SOPHOS removed it and 24 other Threats.

The best news about SOPHOS is its free and it works.

Please Note: I have a large collection of tried and tested #fixed1tMACsupport videos in a #fixed1t YouTube playlist:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVnKaE3t-yQXh2hubgJxdIs9kbKcEZrbA

on a range of tricky topics that can stop even the most serious users in their tracks.  So if you get some spare time rather than watching the latest crazy cat or dog video watch my fixes.  Forewarned will save you a lot of time should one of the problems arise.

Greyed Out iPad WiFi Network Access Fix Part 4

How To Network Greyed Out Wifi iPhone And iPad

Greyed Out iPad WiFi Network Access Fix   Part 4

fixed1t Apple IOS Support #iPhone #iPad

I purchased an iPad Mini with 4g GSM with an intermittent fault that switched it constantly from WiFi to 3G GSM making it unusable. Last week WiFi greyed out and died.

Part 4 - Reducing equipment required connect an iPad

 as a standalone device on LAN Ethernet network

Part 5 - To Be Researched And Tested



Here is the Equipment I Used

You can buy one of these using the links below:


1) The amazing USB 3 3-port USB Hub and Gigabit Ethernet Port



The USA Amazon does not have this CSL device, but they have one which is physically the same with the same spec but in black, so I hope it will do the same job.




The Canadian device is the same as the Amazon USA device:







2) An official Apple Lightening to USB adapter.  It only works with the Apple Adapter, there are cheaper alternative but they are really for charging and won't work as Bi-Directional ports which you need for this project to work.

Greyed Out iPad WiFi Network Access Fix Part 3

This is how to connect the parts to get your Wifi defective iPad or iPhone onto a LAN wired network.

If its a GSM device then it should be working via your GSM 3G or 4G when not connected to the network.

#fixed1tAPPLEIOStips



Here are links to the equipment you need:

1)  A Powered USB Hub, 4-port is best for portability.  It must be powered from an external power supply or the adapters will not work.










2) An official Apple Lightening to USB adapter.  It only works with the Apple Adapter, there are cheaper alternative but they are really for charging and won't work as Bi-Directional ports which you need for this project to work.









3) An Official Apple USB to LAN Network adapter, I have only tested this setup with the official Apple Lan Adapter so I can't vouch that any others will work.
