It’s important to make sure Apple Battery Charger is fully assembled (including the batteries) before plugging it into a power outlet.  Apple Battery charger may become warm after routine use; this is normal.  It may take up to five hours to fully charge the batteries.

Batteries fully charged with Apple Battery Charger and used in some wireless input devices released earlier than Magic Trackpad may appear to have slightly less than 100% charge when you view the available battery life in the Bluetooth menu bar in Mac OS X.  This is normal behavior and does not necessarily indicate that the batteries were not fully charged.

Checking the Status Indicator Lights

The indicator light located on top of the Apple Battery Charger displays the charging status of the batteries.

Amber: The batteries are charging.

Green: The batteries are charged and ready to use. 

Flashing Amber: This may indicate any of the following conditions: 

1. The batteries have not been properly installed.
2. An unsupported type of battery is in the charger.
3. The batteries may be faulty or damaged and should be replaced.

No Light: May indicate either of the following conditions:

1. The batteries are charged and ready to use, but more than six hours have elapsed.
2. The inserted batteries are too fully discharged to be detected immediately by Apple Battery Charger. 

When to Unplug Apple Battery Charger

You should unplug Apple Battery Charger from the power outlet if any of the following conditions exist:

1. The charger plug, the adaptor itself, or the charging case is damaged.
2. The charger is exposed to rain, liquid, or excessive moisture.
3. You suspect the charger needs service or repair.
4. The AC power cord has become frayed or damaged.
5. You suspect a battery is damaged.

  CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1777

  Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later, Windows 7, Vista, XP SP2 or later

  Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution

  Description: A buffer overflow exists in the handling of "itpc:" URLs. Accessing a maliciously crafted "itpc:" URL may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This issue is addressed through improved bounds checking. Credit to Clint Ruoho of Laconic Security for reporting this issue.

• Use iTunes to update to the latest version of iOS for your iPhone.
• Disable FaceTime in Settings > Phone and then turn it on again. Do this by sliding the slider off and then on.
• Reset All Settings under Settings > General > Reset.

Frequently used by corporations and educational institutions for increased security, firewalls work by blocking certain Internet traffic from entering or leaving a network.

Internet traffic moves through a firewall based on service-identification numbers that are referred to as ports. Certain ports must be open for FaceTime to work. Network administrators typically open a minimal set of network ports, allowing the traffic for approved applications to enter and leave the network while blocking other network traffic.

Ports to open

If the Wi-Fi network router that you are connected to uses a firewall or security software to restrict Internet access, contact the network administrator and reference this technical article. To use FaceTime on a restricted Wi-Fi network, port forwarding must be enabled for ports 443 (TCP), 3478–3497 (UDP), 16384–16386 (UDP), and 16393–16402 (UDP).

Depending on the NAT configuration for the router and network, additional ports may be used to send and receive video. Some router-specific features or configurations may interfere with FaceTime. This includes port mapping on either end, SIP dropping, or dynamic opening of media ports.

The Wi-Fi network administrator can refer to their router, firewall, or security software documentation for information on configuring port forwarding.

If you encounter issues using a Wi-Fi network, use standard Wi-Fi network troubleshooting to resolve interference and other issues.

Importing photos to your computer

Pictures and videos you take with your iPhone are saved in the iPhone’s Camera Roll. (For iPod touch and iPad, saved images are stored in Saved Photos). Items in the Camera Roll or the Saved Photos album of your device can be imported to your computer for safe keeping. If you want, you can then sync these pictures back to your device. Learn more about importing your device’s photos and videos in Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer.

Once complete, the resulting information (sample shown below) can help you troubleshoot syncing issues related to iTunes.

When the results are displayed, a status light appears next to each test. A green light next to a particular test indicates that no issues were found. When iTunes detects an issue with a test, a red or yellow light is displayed next to a Help button. The Help button will display troubleshooting information in iTunes or on the Apple support website that may resolve the issue.

In addition to the status lights and support content, iTunes can display a detailed report of the computer’s configuration and connectivity test results by clicking Next. This report has several sections which contain different information.

Understanding the Device Sync Tests report

General system information:

This first section of the diagnostics report displays the following general information:

• Windows version and build
• Make and model of the PC
• Version of iTunes and QuickTime installed
• Whether or not the current user profile has administrator privileges

To help with these precautions, please follow these tips:

• Always sign out after you have finished purchasing from any Apple website or service.
• Avoid using the same password for multiple online accounts.
• Avoid using passwords that you have used in the past.
• Your Apple ID account password should be something only you know, and should not be shared with anyone, even family members.
• Choose a security question and answer that only you know the answer to, and that cannot be easily guessed by someone else.
• To increase the security of your account, it is best to choose a password that contains at least eight characters and uses a combination of numbers, letters and symbols (for example, @, $ or %).
• Changing your password frequently will help to reduce the chance of someone else gaining access to your Apple ID without your knowledge.You can change your password using iForgot.

If you suspect that someone knows your Apple ID username and password, change your account password immediately. In addition, if someone can access your email, they may be able to access your Apple ID. Make sure that the password to your email is different from your Apple ID.

For more information about what an Apple ID is please see the Apple ID Support page here.
