How do you configure an ipod in Windows format if you don't have a dirty PC
Bear with me on this one! We've just got a new Fiat 500 and it says, to play the ipod through the in car system, that you have to configure the ipod as an external disc - done. Then it says:
'if the configuration has been made on an Apple, make the configuration in Windows format; memorize the music tracks as mp3 files not protected from copying'
Does anyone know if this is even possible on a macbook with no windows pc anywhere to be seen (thank god!)??

If you are in a country where you can re-download films then they might show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it for re-downloading. Otherwise, if you don't have a copy of them anywhere (and if they are still in the store) then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
On your laptop, what you can re-download will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage :

How do I download iCloud on a Windows PC if I don't have Windows 7 or 8?
I have had a iPod 2nd Gen for 3 years now, and I've wanted to update it for a long time. (I thought about buying a new one, but they're too expensive, and before you know it the iPod 6th Gen will be out the week after I buy the new model.) I didn't want to lose all of my iTunes spendings and apps, and one of my friends told me about iCloud. I thought I would give it a shot, excited. I knew it wasn't as easy as it looked. We only have Windows XP and Vista. Not Windows 7 or 8, which is needed to download iCloud. It would be great if there was another way to to download it without going to all the trouble of updating my computers, which would cost as much as a new iPod. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
You could install iCloud on your Vista computer (if running Vista SP2) using iCloud control panel for Windows 2.1.2: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1687. However, you can't run iCloud on an iPod Touch Gen 2. iCloud requires iOS 5 or higher and your iPod can't be updated beyond 4.2.1.
If you want to back it up on your computer using iTunes, connect it to your computer, launch iTunes and sync it. It will automatically back it up to your computer when it syncs. (There is more inforation on this in this article under "iTunes: How to Back Up": http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766.) If you never synced with iTunes before you might not want to do this as it will remove all your purchased media from your iPod and replace it with the media in your iTunes library.
Also, you can always redownload your purchased media again if you need to, as long as it's still in the iTunes & App Store, by following this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519. -

How do I reprogram my ipod from Windows to Mac?
How do I reprogram my ipod from Windows to Mac?
Connect the iPod. Decline any offers from iTunes to sync it, if this is the first time the iPod has been connected to the Mac. When the iPod appears in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES, select it there. Over to the right, on the Summary tab, there is a Restore button. Click it. Follow the prompts.
Restore will erase the iPod and install the latest software, using default settings. If it is connected to a Mac when you do the Restore, it will use Mac formatting during the erase. That's basically the only difference. The software is the same, so it is not really "reprogrammed." -
How do you get your tunes and voice recordings from your iPod Touch into iTunes on a new computer if you don't have Mobile Me?
iTunes on tmy new computer shows none of my data and I fear if I sync my iPod with the computer all will be deleted on the iPod.
I still have everything in iTunes on the old computer.Just move your iTunes library to you new computer. You can transfer iTunes purchases to you new computer from your iPod by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848Make sure you also move the backup. You an find where the the backup is located here:

After you move you stuff to the new computer, restore the iPod from backup. -

How do you agree to the latest iCloud Terms of Service if you don't have an iOS device only a Mac computer and an Apple TV with an iCloud account?
Part 2
Thanks for the feedback Skhorchid. Glad it worked for you too.
A bit later I discovered that Photo Stream was not working on my Windows 7 PC either. If I opened the iCloud control panel and put a check in the box to turn on Photo Stream, and then closed and reopened the control panel, the check mark was gone again. Also, nothing happened when I clicked on the options button beside the Photo Stream check box. I already had version 2 of the iCloud control panel so I could not upgrade further.
I ended up uninstalling the iCloud control panel, rebooting, downloading a fresh copy from Apple, and reinstalling it. This worked and I now have photo stream working on my Windows 7 system as well. -

have firefox 3.0.10 on my Mac with OS X .5.6 I can download the latest version of firefox, 7.0.1 dmg. I can open that and get a drive on the desktop. I am the only user and system administrator. How can I not have sufficient privileges? but when I drag the firefox program to the applications folder I always get this message from the firefox program. "you don't have sufficient privileges to open firefox" What is going wrong to prevent me from updating my firefox?
See:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

How can I get an ipod replacement dock on my Ilive it188b or have it repaired?
The ipod dock on my Ilive it188b stopped working and doesn't play or charge my compatible ipod which works on my other stereo. Everything else on the stereo works fine. I contacted the company and they would not sell me a replacement dock because of their agreement with Apple. How can I get an ipod replacement dock on my Ilive it188b or have it repaired? I have checked locally, and the electronics hospital reapair place will not work on it. Is my only option to try and sell it on craigslist or ebay?
You can arrange online service here.

If it's busted, you get a replacement. -
Since installing Firefox 4 on my MacBook OS X version 10.6.7 I've been unable to activate my Bookmarks or history. When logging on Firefox I get an error message "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application." When I follow the direction as stated in "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional, Solution 1: Restart your computer," it doesn't help. When I attempt Solution 2: My computer generates, ""You don’t have permission to rename the item “places.sqlite”
Start at http://www.mozilla.com and download the latest
version. '''At the completion of the download don't let the setup start Firefox for you, when the setup ends, start Firefox in your normal manner this way you will be less likely to create a new profile.'''
The extra startup pages are temporary -- read them. The next time
Firefox comes up you should be back to starting with your normal home page.
'''Note: Firefox must be down once the install starts. '''
Close Firefox with File>Exit. Then make sure Firefox is not running --
On Windows: check the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
'''On Mac: Firefox > Quit then Command+option+Esc, if Firefox running use Force quit'''
Permission errors on Mac:
'''If you were getting permission errors on a Mac, download the latest
Firefox version, then uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Do not remove
your profile directories and files as they contain your settings,

How do you get your options in your workflow in camera raw 6.0 to stay so you don't have to change them everytime?
No one, absolutely no one should be using Adobe Camera Raw 6.0. You should be on Camera Raw 6.7.
Don't rely on the Adobe auto updater to tell you there are no available updates and assume "everything is up to date". That auto updater was totally unreliable until CS6.
The workflow options are absolutely sticky. You should not have to change them at all unless you want to.
If they're not after you update ACR to 6.7, you'd need to troubleshoot your system.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

When I try to sync my IPOD (3rd gen) on ITunes, I receive the following error message - you don't have enough access permissions to perform this operation..can anyone assist?

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
