3.1 useless and now hurting my MBP

Hi,
Installed the new software today when prompted by Apple, lots of problems. The main ones being -
- With iPhone plugged into the MacBook Pro for a few minutes the MBP speaker gives out a loud crack and then I have no sound. The only way to get it working again is to logoff and then log back into the laptop.
- iPhone will not complete backup, now tells me that I have error code -50
- iPhone starts backup and tells me that I am the wrong user, this never happened until today and I am the same as I was yesterday!
Very disappointed with Apple today!

Solved! It took some digging around but eventually I solved this (-50) error problem and no syn between iTunes 9.0 and iPhone 3.1 latest upgrades. The solution for me was to change my iPhone sync settings in iTunes. I usually do not sync from/to iPhoto and this option remains greyed out in my update folder, although it is greyed out the option if ticked would be to sync to iPhoto.
So, I checked the synx box for Photos and changed the folder from iPhoto to My Pictures. I then unchecked the option and synced the iPhone with iTunes, everything worked! I then reset the sync option to iPhoto but then left it unchecked as normal, the next sync then worked fine.
So, the problem is linked to iPhoto sync with iPhone, just change the settings and hopefully it will work if you have the same error (-50) problem.
Best Wishes,
Mickey

  • HT203164 Itunes destroyed my ipod (wiped it out and rendered it useless) and now i keep getting a cancelling burn message when trying to burn a cd.

    I've tried restarting the IMAPI cd burning service, different playlists, and blank cds.  I'm frustrated.  Can anyone help?  I'm running Windows XP.

    Hello there,
    It sounds like you are unable to burn a disc using Windows XP. You started with the troubleshooting I would have as well. Next try these steps from the article named:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: If you have trouble burning a disc
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12349
    If CD burning stops at a particular song, the playlist might include iTunes Store purchases that haven’t beenauthorized to play on this computer. To authorize this computer, double-click the purchased song (where CD burning stopped) and enter the information for the account that purchased the song. You can authorize up to five computers at a time. For more information, see Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases.
    Use Windows Update to make sure you have the latest Service Pack for your computer installed.
    Check your computer or drive manufacturer’s site for firmware updates and install any that are appropriate for your computer and CD or DVD drive.
    Try using a different brand of media or a different type of disc (for example, CD-RW instead of CD-R).
    Try choosing a lower burn speed.
    If the issue persists after these things have been checked, I would next try unisntalling iTunes altogether, along with its associated apps and then re install it with this article:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • How do I delete movies from iTunes library? I have moved them to the iCloud and now only seem to have the option to hide the icon in iCloud.  I am sure I chose poorly at the 'keep file' window.  Please help. My Brain hurts- 18   movies need to go-.

    Instead of removing the music from the cloud or the iTunes library why not shuffle your music using a Smart Playlist which excludes the holiday music, or tracks that are not checked. For example, use this very simple Smart Playlist:

  • Upgraded to new MBP and now I can't bounce?

    I recently upgraded my MPB and now for some reason, when I bounce, the file is empty/silent. I am using all the same gear and the same templates I used on my old computer. Nothing has changed except the computer. I went line by line through every setting with the old computer and everything is the same.
    Any insights? I tried bouncing in every format both offline and online. Same results. I also opened the file on my old computer and it bounced just fine.
    Help?

    Have you tried trashing logic prefs? Or perhaps copy the prefs from your old computer to your MBP, and substitute the current prefs there.
    Have you looked in System Preferences... and checked the sound settings?
    As a last resort, you can try zapping the PRAM, although that resets every system setting to defaults. Before starting up, press shift-option-p-r (a 'chord') and lift after the second chime.

  • I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work. Help?

    I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
    ^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
    I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
    Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.

    Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
    Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
    Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
    NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
    LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

  • Hey i bought a brand new MBP like 6 months ago and now it won't charge

    i bought a brand new MBP like 6 months ago and now it won't charge. I tried using a friends MBP charger of the same year as my computer but it still says not charging at the top right corner of the computer screen where the charging symbol is. This problem just happened out of nowhere because it was working the day before then the next day it just stopped working saying it is not charging. I tired doing all of the suggested techniques to fix it but not luck.
    This is the battery report is when my MBP is either connected to my charger or my friends charger which works perfectly on her computer.

  • MBP upgraded to Yosemite and now will not connect to Internet using a Cisco router

    I Upgraded my MBP mid 2010 to Yosemite and now it will not connect to Internet using a system that involves typing in my user name and password in an auto pop up window provided by Cisco security systems. Before, using Mavericks, it worked perfectly: boot up MBP and the Cisco pop up auto loaded. Typed it my password and hey presto, connected to Internet. Now, zilch. There is nothing wrong with the Cisco cos my iPad connects ok, as do both my iPhone's.
    the problem is with Yosemite therefore. Please help. I tried all the usual diags, etc to no avail.

    Sounds like there could be some kind of compatibility issue between ICS and this Bluetooth device of yours. Is there any compatibility info from the manufacturer about which Android versions that's being supported?

  • Leopard completely trashed my HDD and now won't install on my MBP

    I only moved away from Windows in the summer and now I feel I'm no better off. I've just upgraded my new MBP (only a few months old) to Leopard and it failed. Not only did it fail with some Sibling Link error (which fsck_hfs -r and other internet search result recommendations failed to resolve) but it resulted in my having to completely reformat my drive!
    I then let the install disk do a format of my drive and install and now I get this "The installer was unable to create the folder BaseSystem.pkg on the volume ...." or words to that effect. So now I have a new MBP that won't boot and won't install an operating system!
    What is this? Apple's Vista?
    Is there anything I can do to get this operating system to install???

    do you have a software install disk that came w/ your computer. If so, load it up, go to disk utility, zero out your HD, and then reinstall the OS from that disk. Leopard absolutely, completely, totally, and irreversibly hosed my pbg4, so much so that not only would it not eject the fri@@@@ Leopard DVD, it wouldn't even cotton pickin' START UP, save for booting into Open Firmware.. I decided that before I trashed it, I'd try one more time to start it up, hold down the **** eject key, to see what happened. I waited 30 minutes to let myself cool off before using the **** thing as target practice and, well, what'd'ya know, it started up, ejected the Leo DVD, immediately following which I inserted the disc for 10.2.7, shut it down, started it up, it booted immediatley into the installer for that OS, I went to disk utility, zero'd out the HD, after which I went about installing 10.2.7. I'm now on my pbg4 w/ that system installed and it's working (so far) flawlessly. What an absolute crock of rat @@@@ Leopard is turning out to be. Oh, btw, on this pbg4 there were no haxies, no 10.4.10 widgets, nothing fancy, save perhaps for Nisus Express and Firefox. I have Leo on a separate HD on my g5 dual 1.8 which is exactly where it's going to stay until all those bright bulbs at Apple can figure out what the **** is going on.
    Hope you have better fortune,

  • Transfer account from old MBP to new one and now my account password does not work.

    I trasferred my account from one MPB to a new one using targeted disk method.  I left my desk while it finished and came back to a registration page.  I registered and the system rebooted.  Now I see my login details but the password form my old Mac fails.  The hint it gives me also seems to be bogus becaues I've tried many variations of the hint and they also do not work. 
    I'm submitting this from my original MBP and had not problem using my old password logging in to it.  Why didn't my password transfer properly and now how do I fix my new MBP?
    I made sure duing the transfer process to select everything for transfer -- accounts, applications, etc.  All check boxes were checked.

  • How can I get rid of ios6 ? I have had this iPad for less than 2 weeks and,ade the mistle of "upgrading" to ios6 and now my map is completely useless.  Feel like I have been robbed

    how can I get rid of ios6 ? I have had this iPad for less than 2 weeks and made the mistake of "upgrading" to ios6 and now my map is completely useless.  Feel like I have been robbed

    There are alternatives. But none of them have Google street view, able to work on iOS 6. Apple should have offered this as a beta version, for a few more months instead of inflicting us with an inferior product. This iPad will probably be my last Apple product. A shame, because until last a few days ago, I thought the iPad and iPhone were fantastic.
    Apple should quit their petty squabbling with, Google and Samsung and concentrate on supplying the best product.
    Google and Samsung must be enjoying this particular fiasco.

  • Hi, i have a MBP 13, late 2012. Its over an year old since purchase and now out of warranty. This morning the computer did not boot so i went down to apple store and they looked at it and said its a logic board failure requiring replacement worth£350

    Hi, i have a macbookpro 13, late 2012. I bought it last year october and its an year old and now out of warranty. This morning the computer did not boot, so i went down to apple store and they looked at it and said its a logic board failure and needs replacement worth £350. The tech at apple store gave no explanation, why suddenly, my computer decided not to start at all and said to me it was a logic board failure for no apparent reason and requires replacement. I have maintained the laptop in a pristine condition. Now I feel I have been cheated. This clearly means the product is substandard as a £1100 laptop is not expected to fail in just over a year. My last laptop PC which was worth £450 served me for 4 years before it crashed and lived for another 2 years until I decided to get a mac. This is ridiculous. I don't have apple care at the moment which translates as pay to get it fixed. Anybody in my situation ? I want to sue apple for selling me a substandard good . Any thoughts? Should I go for another pc for £500 because there is no guarantee even after the laptop were fixed by apple for £350 it would last for another year. I need a reliable machine.

    This morning my MBP just woke up from sleep and is working without any glitches. I don't know what to say about this.

    As you have tried all of the remedies suggested I guess your phone is now useless and there is no hope. But if you post the specific remedies you have tried someone MIGHT notice one that you have missed.
