I have a few pre-sales questions. Can you help?
Here are some things I need answers to before I decide to buy a Nano.
1. Can this be used as a storage device for documents? I would like to transfer data between work and home computers easily.
2. If I'm listening to a podcast and need to stop, is it easy to setup a bookmark so I can resume later? I know that it remembers where you are when you turn it off, but what if I want to stop a podcast and go listen to a song? How can I easily resume the podcast?
3. Many of my podcasts are just a few minutes long and I need an easy way to delete them when I'm done as I drive down the freeway at 70+ MPH. Is it easy to delete a podcast or song while driving?
4. I see that it syncs the "To Do" list that I have on iCal. Can I add a "to do" with my Nano? Or do I need to wait until I am home on my computer to do this and sync it over?
Thanks!!!!
1).Someone already mentioned this but your number one is incorrect. Your nano can be used as an external disk up to the available capacity on it as long as you have it set in disk mode. You won't be able to view items on it directly that you store in such manner but you will be able to use it to store and move data.
2). You're correct about the video podcasts but the original poster mentioned nothing about video podcasts so that was an irrelevant note.
3). This is only part true....if you use your iPod in autosync mode. If you are a manual mode user you do not have to delete things off of your iTunes in order to delete it from your iPod. You can delete whatever you want from your iPod and have it remain in your iTunes untouched. You do have to do so with it connected to iTunes of course, but other than that your iTunes can keep everything in it that you put without affecting what you take off of your iPod.
And your sidenote...ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! Just the mention of 70mph and messing with the iPod disturbed me lol.

I try to sync my nano and get: the ipod cant be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the items library (need 100MB) - I have a new computer?? can you help me understand this message: what to do?
Hello pryan1012,
What this message means is that you have more music in your itunes library than there is free space in your ipod.
I had this same issue at one time. This is what helped me put my music on the ipod. I used manually manage.
Learn how to sync muisc here.
Hope this helps.

I have a MacBook pro version 10.6.7 with snow leopard. After an scheduled software upgrade I could not open Quicken (It said it could not open the files). Now I can only open it if I have my external drive on. Can you help?
All the information that I had input on Quicken is gone. I have to have the external hard drive that I use to back up to be able to use quicken now. It is as if it was erased from the laptop hardriveTry repairing permissions. My favorite way is with a utility called AppleJack. Info and download here. It's free. It only works when you boot in Single User Mode. When restarting or booting, hold down the Command key and S keys.
You will get a very different startup screen that looks like the Terminal app has hijacked the screen. Just let the lines of text scroll by. When that happens you will get a text entry prompt. Type in "AppleJack" without the quotation marks.
A DOS looking menu will appear. Choose 1 or d to run Disk Repair. If you get a message that Disk Repair found and corrected errors, run it again. Repeat until you get the "your disk appears to be ok" message. This rarely happens with my experience, though. This does the same thing as as booting from an external drive and running Disk Utility's repair. Only, no external drive is required!
Next, choose 2 or p to repair disk permissions. This will take a little while. AppleJack warns that it will take up to an half hour to run repair permissions. It'n never taken more than about ten minutes for my MacBook Pro.
As permissions are repaired, you will see each repair scroll on the screen. When done, the menu returns, choose q to quit. Then at the prompt, enter "exit" without the quotes. Your MacBook Pro should restart into Mac OS normally after this.
Hope this helps. -

If the movie you downloaded from the iTunes Store is not playing in iTunes for Windows, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:

Try to Reset it (hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons).
If that does not work try Restoring it in iTunes.
Still no go? You will need to get it serviced. -

Have you deleted your prefs?
From the Photoshop help files:
Restore all preferences to default settings
Do one of the following:
Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings.
(Mac OS only) Open the Preferences folder in the Library folder, and drag the Adobe Photoshop CS Settings folder to the Trash.
New Preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop.
If that does not work reinstall. -

I forgot my apple security question can you help
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I have the serial number but cannot see how to download it. please can you help?
Hi Shaun,
Elements 6 is a legacy product and the download is not available on Adobe's website.
Also check the configuration of your new machine, Elements 6 might not be compatible with that.

i´m usung version 17.0 and it´s impossible remenber paswords for sites, I have Master Password andsaved passwords.
REMEMBER PASSWORDS FOR SITES DO NOT WORK -IT´S NOT OPERATIVE
-Please , can you help me.- ThanksHi,
Usually Firefox will not save passwords on sites that disallow saving. You could try to use an add-on like [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lastpass-password-manager/ LastPass] that has options to override that and other.

Before that, as a test you can try to check if it's working here. If not, then you can Reset Firefox and start afresh.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
