2 brand new mini ipods, same problem!

Me and my brother each bought a mini ipod today, and we both have the same problem. the ipods are skipping parts of songs and getting stuck, like a cd player does when the cd is scratched. please help!

Mine had a similar problem after I plugged it into my computer's speakers to play. I sent it in for repair and they sent me a new one...still don't know what the problem was though.

I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini. Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead." The mouse still works but can't type. If I restart, everything is fine again. Is there anything that will fix this problem?

Also, I am trying to connect my Mini from the mini-Displayport to the Displayport of my Dell U2410 monitor. The image is very grainy,even though it is set to the correct resolution: 1920 X 1200 at 60Hz. If I use HDMI to VGA input, the image is much clearer. Is there a way to get the Displayport to work?

I'm having exactly the same keyboard issue. Certainly nothing has ever enhanced my concentration while coding like suddenly becoming unable to type.
I'm seeing a great many devicemgr and rake errors in my system log. I don't know if they're related. How 'bout you?
If you're unfamiliar with the system log…
Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
If necessary, choose View > Show Log List.
system.log is at the top of the FILES section.
Try searching it for hot words like DEBUG, FATAL, and aborted.
I've found some discussions that would tend to indicate my errors are postGres related – I'm running OS X server.

My Brand New Refurbished Ipod Touch is not working

I just bought a brand new refurbished Ipod touch 32GB (current generation), after a week it shows flickering white screens. I seldom used it for the whole week. When I went to apple service centre they told me that the water leak indicator turns into purple colour supposedly white. I ask them, how this thing can happen, because honestly I was always keep it safe and never been contact to any liquid or soak into water. Then I went to another service centre to get second thought – same feedback was given to me. The warranty was void because of the water leak indicator turns into purple colour.
Anyone can help me to resolve my case? Honestly, I seldom used my Ipod touch, never been contact with water and it was always safely kept. Maybe there is some problem down the factory line, why it was refurbished? What is the history of this iPod touch? Maybe from there, something can help me that can prove that is the original problem of this iPod touch.

i also got a refurb Touch. luckily, mine works as expected.
a refurb enjoys the same warranty as a new one. take yours to an Apple store near you and have it replaced.

Brand New Mini - Can't Migrate from Old

OK, Santa brought a brand new mini to replace my trusty 2007 mini. I fired it up and tried to use migration assistant to migrate from the 2007. First I tried it via network. It got to the screen where it showed the old mini as the source but then just sat there with the buzz saw spinning and 'looking for other computers'. I don't understand why it was still looking...it had found the one that it needed. So I plug my Time Machine disk into it. It gets to about the same point...shows the disk and the buzz saw and the 'looking for other computers' message. Why is it looking for other computer? I rebooted and it finally recognized the Time Machine disk and I selected what I wanted to migrate and it went on its merry way while we had dinner. I come back a couple hours later and it says 'copying system info...about a minute left' or something close. I left it there for about an hour and finally shut it down & restarted. It then went to the gray screen with the apple and the buzz saw and hung there for about an hour. I tried a few more times and then booted into the Utilities screen and am in the process of re-installng Lion. I'm not happy. Any idea what the problems were/are? I hope I can get it working after all this. Did I mention that I'm not happy?

Error message: Volume "Macintosh HD is full" on brand new mini

Hi,
Just installed Logic X on a brand new Mini 2.6Ghz, 256 ss HD, 16 gigs Ram. This is a dedicated machine for music so there is really no other major programs installed. I have almost 200 gigs of free HD space. I am using 2 interfaces as an agregate device for a total of 20 i/o. One is a MOTU 896MK3 and the other is an Audiofire Echo which is the master clock. The connection is Firewire 400 and I'm recording at 44.1 to the same internal HD. I also optimized my computer settings by turning off indexing and time machine.
On this project I have about 12 tracks of live drums enabled which I can record with no problem but when I try to play the tracks back after about 30 seconds in it stops and I get this error message: Volume "Macintosh HD is full" . The session has no software instruments at this time and I have no plugins on the tracks yet. When I look at my CPU load it's very low as would be expected and I have a ton of HD space. This computer is literally 2 days old. I am monitoring the individual tracks back through the interfaces into the returns on my analog mixer channels. I should also say that I had similar issues trying to run this setup on an older macbook pro which had a lot of software installed on it and is not a robust, I thought that upgrading to a newer faster machine would be the way to go. I am suspecting that my agregate interface setup could be a week link but getting an HD error message doesn't make any sense to me. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Its normally caused by a disk data problem ..... and the solution in this thread usually fixes it...
if this doesnt fix it.. try rebuilding your Spotlight indexes.... as Spotlight is what Logic uses to track everything on disk.... so it could be a corrected index that is at the root of your problem.

Do you have a technical question for us volunteer users?

I have a brand new 8gb iPod touch 4g which has 0.43gb of other data right out of the box.

I have a brand new 8gb iPod touch 4g which has 0.43gb of other data before I've even put anything on it.I appreciate the OS takes up about 1.5gb, but this is in addition to that. There is absolutely nothing on the iPod and I've already done a factory reset.
The amount of yellow "other" data seems to go up and down if I click sync (although it is not syncing anything). There is no other data on the device. Is this normal?

That is about right. Normally it is about 1/2 GB. If can grow because of corrupt files. Then it is necessary to restore the iPod sometimes from backup works but sometimes a restore to factory defaults/new iPod is required. The other is made of ite items that do not fit the other categories listed.

My touch screen stopped working...on my brand new replacement iPod touch.

I recieved my replacement while on vacation in Vegas, about five days ago. My new iPod has been kept nice and safe in it's case without any bumps that could damage it. Today, May 4th, I go to school with a perfectly working iPod. On my way home, kept safe in my pocket all day, the touch screen stopped working, and restarting it didn't fix it. It's brand new, so whats wrong and how can I fix it PLEASE!

yes i have the same problem. But also other then the fact that the touch screen doesnt register it is really dark, like there is no light bulb

1 iPod Touch, 1 iPod Nano (Brand New) & 2 iPod Classics Not Reconized

Hi,
I have 1 iPod Touch, 2 iPod Classic & 1 iPod Nano (brand new one)
Since the iTunes V9 update none of them will show up in Windows or iTunes.
I have tryed the 5 R's, wiping everything off the computer and reinstalling it, reinstalling iTunes and more!
Still nothing
Have any of you had the same problem and managed to solve it ??
Thanks in advance

Sorry, I followed both guides and uninstalled everything - rebooted, reinstalled iTunes like your second link instructions said.
PC sees all devices fine in Windows Explorer (and makes the pling sound when I connect them, they just do not show up in iTunes.
(ipod nano, ipod touch 32GB, iphone 1st gen, ipad 1st gen)
Manually starting or restarting all itunes/ipod related services doesn't do a thing either, nothing will sync.
I'm at a loss.

Cannot install 10.4.3 on my brand new mini

Help!
I have a brand-new mac mini OSX 10.4, which is not connected to the internet. It tells me that the HD has 37.1GB, 25.2GB free.
I downloaded the 10.4.3 update onto my 256MB "datakey" (USB flash drive) and tried to install it onto my new mini. When I got to the "Select Destination" stage I was prevented from selecting the HD and the message told me that "Installing requires 292MB of space. You cannot install mac OSX update on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
What's the problem?
And also, do I really need the update at all? I'm not planning to do much at the moment aside from importing music, watching DVDs, and maybe doing some photo editing and word processing.
Thank you!

Which updater did you download? There are four different 10.43 updaters; one for Mac OS X client, another for Mac OS X Server, plus combo updaters for each of the first two. If you have a client version of Mac OS X 10.4 prior to 10.42 installed, you need the 10.43 combo updater.

Brand New Mini / Brand New LCD Projector

Just bought a Mac Mini 1.42 GHz with the 80 GB hard drive and the Combo drive. I just opened the box and plugged it into my brand new Panasonic PT-900U LCD projector and nothing. No video. Nothing at all.
It seems many people are having video problems with the mini. What's the deal? Will this mini work with my brand new projector? My PowerBook works instanly with the projector. I don't have a monitor to test the mini with at all. I have no way of knowing if the mini is even booting as I can't see a thing.
Can I hook the mini to my PowerBook? HELP!!!

Snap-
Can you also plug something else, like a computer, into the projector and verify that it is working? And if you had another monitor to plug into the mini I would try that as well.
I do not know what your trouble shooting expertise is, so please excuse me if you have tried that already. But it would help to narrow things down to the actual culprit.

Replacement iPod, Same Problem.

I just got my replacement photo ipod and paid thirty dollars for S+H. Now, the new iPod has the exact same problem. What route should I take? Will I be able to get another replacement? What will Apple do to ensure it doesn't happen again?
I'm very upset and would like to hear what I should do.
Thanks.
-Lake.

What email address did you use? Apple does not have email support.
See if anything here can help;
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61771
If not, your iPod will need to be sent in for service. You can either take it to an Apple store, or request service online here;

Good luck.

New video card same problem

I just got a brand new Geforce FX 5200 Ultra card to replace my Radeon 9000 Pro. I still have the same problem. When I still had the the Radeon I bought some more memory to go with the 256MB dimm I started with. When I install the 512MB dimm, I get no image on my monitor. When I remove it, it runs fine. I get the exact same problem with the new card as I did with the old one. What the hell is causing this problem. I had the new dimm tested and it works.
My setup is:
Processor: 2.4 GHz Intel P4
Video: BFG Asylum Geforce FX 5200 Ultra 128MB
Sound: Creative Soundblaster Live 5.1
Mobo: 645E Max (MS-6547)
Memory: Kingston PC2700 256MB,512MB KVR333X64C25
Interface Card:Matrox ATA 133 interface card
Hard Drives: 40GB Seagate 5400 RPM (ST340823A), 80GB Matrox 7200 RPM
Is this a bios setting problem? Is my mobo at fault? If so, will updating the bios help.
If I need to replace the mobo, can anyone suggest good mobo that will work with my current memory.
Thanks
Matt

I have tried the 512MB dimm alone. It is of the same model as the 256MB dimm (KVR333X64C25) which is Kingston. It is producing the same symptoms as the 9000 Pro card did. I had the memory tested and both dimms work. Both dimms are Kingston PC2700 dimms.

Snow Leopard Server on brand new Mini; Gray screen

I installed Snow Leopard Server on a new Mini. The install went fine. Shut the mini down. Started it up about 24 hours later, and I get to the gray screen and that's it.
I exchanged the mini for a new one. Installed Snow Leopard Server on the new one. Install went fine. Ran updates. Restarted the mini several times with no problem. Shut it down, waited 24 hours, and now it's the gray screen again.
Now what?

There's a huge thread on this (client, not server, but same concept) which you can find here.
