Using Safely Eject Hardware in Windows Vista Doesn't Disconnect iPod

When I use the Safely Eject Hardware Option to eject my iPod in Vista, my iPod still says "Do Not Disconnect", whilst in Windows XP it will allow me to use the iPod afterwards.
I know vista is got some compatability issues but does anyone else have this problem?
Thanks.

I thought I was alone with this problem. I recently went traveling last weekend, and began to think the X-Ray machines killed my iPod!
Whenever I connect my iPod to any computer using the USB connection, Windows will not mount it as a removable drive. The cable is good, because the iPod is being charged but Windows will not recognize it.
I have tried all the different USB ports, even on several different computers. Including my work, laptop, and my desktop. Windows will not recognize my iPod using the USB connection.
I'm in the process of restoring my desktop computer after a hard-drive failure (lucky me all my vital data were on a separate drive), so my desktop has a nice clean install of Windows.
My desktop has a firewire port, so I tried connecting to that port and Ta-Da, Windows recognized and mounted my iPod as a removable drive! Unfortunately my laptop nor my work computers do not have firewire ports.
Can anyone explain why the USB function suddenly stopped working? Does this mean I need to restore and loose all my music from my iPod? I do not let iTunes manage my music, I do that all myself. I can put my music back onto the device but it will be time consuming. If anyone knows the answer to this USB problem, perhaps you can reply to this thread or contact me.
Thanks,

How do I find the model number of a MacBook

A friend of mine has a MacBook that won't start up. How do I find the model number of her MacBook? A number like MBXXXLL/A or MAXXXLL/A.

HI,
Do you meant he serial number? If so, click the Apple Menu  then click: About This Mac. You will see Mac O S X. Under that click where you see: Version 10.x.x, then click one more time to see the serial number.
You can also view this information by launching the System Profiler (Applications/Utilties)
On the left under Contents select Hardware. The serial number will be displayed on the right.
Just out of curiosity, how is knowing the serial number going to help trouble shoot this MacBook ??

How do i find the IP address of my printer?

I have an HP 7130 all-in-one printer connected to a windows computer that is connected to a wireless router and modem. im using my macbook, which is also wireless to the same modem, and i am trying to set up a printer which requires the IP address of the printer it cannot find on its own. How do i find the IP address of the printer?
Thanks!

Hi Gavin,
Actually it was a typo fault on my behalf. Unfortunately the 7130 will not have an IP address as it doesn't have an Ethernet connection - just USB.
So, you are either going to have to connect the printer to the Windows computer and print from the Mac via the share or get some other hardware to share the printer. There are a number of wireless print servers on the market which allow you to connect your printer to its USB socket and then print wirelessly from your Windows and Mac computers. Or you could look at replacing the router with an Airport Extreme, which has a USB port for a printer.
If you want use what you have then connect the printer to the Windows computer and share it. Then on your Mac, open the Printer Setup Utility and click Add. Click More Printers and then Windows Printing > Network Neighborhood. You should see the Workgroup name set in the Windows computer appear. If it doesn't then wait several minutes and try again (sometimes it can take a while before Windows computers appear in this list). Once the workgroup name appears double click it and select the computer from the new menu. At this stage you may be prompted for a user name and password for the Windows computer. Input this information and then the printer share should appear. Select it and then browse for your printer model. Now there is a good chance that your model is not listed under the HP menu so you will have to use one of the provided drivers in the list and see which one works best for your printer. Once you have selected an appropriate model click Add. Now you should be able to print via wireless..

My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is not showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today & I would like to restore to last week when it was on my phone. How do I find the backup on my pc, how do I move it to itunes to restore phone back to

My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is now showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today and I need it back desperately. I need to restore my phone back to last Thursday when the information was on my phone. How do I find the backup on my pc and once I find it how do I move it to itunes for me to restore my phone to that day?

I wished I had known this before I said yes to using icloud. I guess those things will be lost and gone forever, since I do not want to lose my present settings and data. Also do not want to go through the hassle of backing up present, then resetting phone, then restoring oldest back up, then backing up oldest backup to pc, so I can safely backup selected items to my pc; then reset my phone again to restore latest back up. It would take way too much time and no guarantee.
I backed up my phone to my pc, but have not checked it yet, so don't know if it worked.
If I decide to quit using icloud (which will probably happen since backing up to external hard drive allows me to open backups) what will happen to my present data and settings? Will they just remain as they were without icloud, as they were before icloud? I'm scared to just delete it; not knowing what will happen. Also why is icloud now my outgoing mail server, when my web email was before I installed icloud and how do I restore my web email as my outgoing mail server. I am using yahoo/at&t for all my mail.
What will happen to my contacts, notes, messages, voice memos, calendar info, alerts, etc., on my phone if I delete icloud?

How do I find the model number on my keyboard? I have an anodised aluminium (short with no numeric pad on it) keyboard that came with my iMac that I bought in 2009, and I am wanting to find out what model it is.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Many of the Apple keyboards have the model number on the underside, often in very tiny grey print that is really, really hard to read
You can also go to the Apple symbol in the top left corner of your screen, drop down to About this Mac, then click more Info and navigate to the the hardware information about the interfacing equipment.
If you have your original order information from purchase, it may list each item you received with model/part number.

How do I find the IMEI?

Greetings,
My first PlayBook didn't recognize a SIM card, so I sent it back. BlackBerry has sent me a new PlayBook, but the box is generic, and doesn't list the IMEI number on the outside, like my original black box did. How do I find the IMEI number on my 4G LTE PlayBook?
Thanks,
Shane.

You can find the IMEI by tapping settings > About > Hardware.
If you don't see it, make sure you have the latest OS (2.1.0.1917).

How can i find the year/specs of a laptop?

I am planning on purchasing a macbook from a local shop and they say it is slightly used but are giving it to me for a substantially low price. They said they will allow me to check it out and see if i want to buy it or not. How can i find the year of purchase and specs of the laptop quickly and through simple use at the store to decided if i want to make the purchase? also, how can i judge if a mac is fully functioning in a short period of time? sorry for my lack of knowledge as i have only ever owned a pc

When examining the laptop, boot it up, click the Apple menu, and click "About This Mac." It will tell you the CPU and RAM. Click the More Info button for the full System Information listing of all hardware and software.
The System Information Hardware Overview section will list the exact model like this:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro8,2
You can look up the Model Identifier to determine the year of release and more specs. I have the MacTracker app on my iPhone which has a complete database of all Macs ever made, so I look it up there.
On the desktop, if you select the hard disk icon and choose Get Info you will get a readout of the disk capacity and how much is used/free.
It's hard to know if a Mac has a hidden problem, after only a few minutes of examination. You will have to wing it or ask for some kind of warranty.
