30g with tons of problems...
I got my 5G 30g iPod video on Friday and put about 300 songs on it and everything was fine but then I updated my iTunes program online and then my iPod wouldn't show up in the iTunes menu. It said I needed to restore my iPod to factory settings. But when I tried to go to the iPod Updater program it wasn't there. So I reinstalled the older version of iTunes that came w/ my iPod and it still didn't work. So I went on the iPod and reset everything thinking it would help, but it didn't, it just took the songs I had put on there off... So I went online and tried everything the Apple support site said and it still wasn't showing up in iTunes. Then today I got back on and found the iPod Updater and tried to restore my iPod. But it said that it had a disk write error and a formatting failure, and when I tried again it said it had a firmware update failure. And now my iPod won't turn on and it has a little folder icon w/ an exclamation point and the URL www.apple.com/support/ipod. So I went there and I've tried everything, except I still can't restore it with the updater...
Sorry if this is a common problem(although I don't think it is...)
Please help. This is the most money I've ever spent on one thing, and its really dissappointing that its not working...
Windows XP
I had the same exact problems and i sent mine in to the apple store and they sent it back to me and said that everything was fine but like you said i couldn't get into anything and that little folder shows up but when i got it back it was working fine and i went to load it up on my coputer and it did the same thing after i got it back from the store and all i did was restore it and somehow i got it to work but im still having problems loading up my music to it. It just seems like everytime i plug my ipod in everything just slows down and i don't know what the deal is but i hope this helped you.

I have a 4g ipod touch with tons of problems.
The home button no longer responds and when it does it takes at least 10 minutes of repeatedly clicking it.
When my ipod turns off it takes hours to a day for it to turn back on.
Should i replace it, and if so, how much will that cost?
Is it repairable?I do have service and repair coverage! Thank you for that link
Does that mean I can replace it for no cost or that its just for repair service? -
IPhone 4 problems? I'm having a ton of problems with my IPhone. Help?
I'm having a ton of problems with my iPhone 4 running iOS 6.1.3. Yesterday, I accidentally added a keyboard shortcut that was extremely long and it screwed up my iPhone. For one, the keyboard section of settings would take forever to open, and when it did open and I tried to delete the shortcut, my phone would restart and when I got back, the shortcut was still there. So I reset my phone. 7 times. And it still didn't work. I finally ended up using find my iPhone to erase it and then it worked. The shortcuts were gone and my phone stopped randomly restarting every 5 minutes. But when I got home, I plugged it into iTunes to get all my music an photos back on. I set it up as a new phone. After it was done syncing, I changed the name to the name of what it was before I reset it for the first time. Then, all of the sudden, it started crashing again. Sure enough, the shortcuts were there again. How do I get my music and photos back on my phone without the keyboard shortcuts being added back on? BTW, my songs are all off of CDs so I can't just re download them from the iTunes Store.
It sounds like you restored it with your backup because the shorcuts were back on there. Restore again, as new without your backup. They sync your media back on.

Tons of problems with original iphone since 2.0 update
i have the 4gb iphone got it the first week it came out and have not had a problem with it since it came out. I think in the past year i had to restore it twice. Since the 2.0 i have a list of problems.
1. when i turn my phone of it turns it self right back on.
2. The speaker sounds like it is blown it make a bad crackling.
3. I keep getting a message that tells me that my phone is not compatible with this accessory would i like to go in to airplane mode. Even thought nothing is plugged in and with this problem it turn the screen on every couple of min so my battery is dead by mid day.
4. My sound sometimes does not work ex. keyboard or apps.
5. and i have not been able to download apps or from my phone or. i have to delete the app from my phone and reinstall it.
with all these problems i have to restore my phone once our twice a week to get it to work properly. i am at the point of going back to my old phone just so i can have a phone that will work all day.I tried restoring the iPhone as a new one, but since it wont back up on iTunes in the first place after the restore I get an error stating "the last backup on xx/xx/2008 is corrupt" and had to re-enter all new contacts just like when I first bought the phone. This only happened after the 2.0.2 software update...what the he11 did that update do my phone? I'm almost hoping i can return this phone to get my old one back...which actually worked btw.

Adobe Flash Update infected Firefox with tons of viruses. Help!
I got with one of those annoying fake Adobe Flash Updates, and unfortunately fell for it and installed it, which has infected Firefox (and Chrome, and IE, for that matter) with tons of viruses that I CANNOT get rid of. I'm on a Windows 7 PC.
Basically, what they do:
- Adds "Enhanced Text" everywhere (text is underlined and leads to an ad)
- Adds unwanted banners on sites
- Frequent pop-ups
- Redirects my searches (Google is essentially unusable)
- Can't log-in to certain sites (eBay)
The last two are really killing me and making the internet very hard to enjoy. I've run Malwarebytes several times (first a quick scan, then a full scan), as well as TDSSKiller. Both detected malware and deleted them, but nothing changed. As per the internet's advice, I've tried disabling all my extensions/plug-ins, but doing that didn't help either - many reference specific extensions that cause these problems, like "CCodec" or "ghostery" but nothing like that appears in my add-ons menu. I went into Programs and Features and uninstalled anything suspicious-looking (which somehow lead to half that list disappearing? All my programs are still there, but for whatever reason that list shortened significantly), and still nothing.
I'm really at a loss here. None of my browsers are working properly and nothing I do seems to help.Looks like you need to be locked and loaded for a virus to come, or just avoid it.
Can you try those scans in safe mode? Safe mode likely will prevent the malware from running at all during the safe mode session.

OS X Mountain Lion no longer supports pinyin Chinese input with tones?
I use Macbook Air. Since updated to OS X Mountain Lion, I don't seem to be able to input Chinese using Pinyin with tones, both in Simplified and Traditional versions. For example to type "蘋果電腦“, I used to type ping2guo3dian4nao3 <space> to get that, but in the new OS, pingguodiannao<space> to get that. I like tones because tones can narrow down the subsets of choices for Chinese characters during typing. In general, that should speed up typing Chinese. Also, it's a better way for me to learn Mandarin tones are essential part of the language.
Not sure I missed some settings so this is still available in the new OS...
Thank you.This problem is a huge disadvantage for typing in Chinese. Apple has recently touted Mountain Lion's pinyin input as being superior (i.e. quicker) when mixing English and Chinese in the same sentence. However, if you're typing Chinese words in isolation from other Chinese characters the lack of context and inability to choose a tone leaves you with hundreds (for some characters) of choices. Scrolling through the tone choices with option+tab is a slower alternative than simply typing them and it really seems to me that while Microsoft has improved pinyin input with each new OS release, Apple has taken us backwards with this one.
Please Apple, allow us to turn Dynamic Prompt off again! -

I have an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes.
All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem. The movie in question is not 'corrupt' as you can watch it in iMovie direct from the SD card but as soon as you try to import it, it just says 'error'. iIve tried moving the file to an external drive ( and other variations on this theme) then importing but have had no luck.
Can anyone please help me.The mystery remains....
Thanks for the pointers. The file type is .mts (a proprietry sony one).
I have now found some video converter software (Wondershare and iSkysoft) at a cost. Either will convert this file for me into .mp4. This I can then import into iMovie without any problems. I've checked this on the trial versions and it worked well but without paying am left with a giant watermark in the video
The mystery (which I still havent solved) is why did 20 other .mts files import fine and then this one not?
If you could point me in the direction of some free .mts converter software that would be the cherry on the cake.
Thanks -

I'm assuming you have Photo Stream set up of both devices. However, it seems many users are experiencing the same as you - my take is that streaming photos is not foolproof yet.

Am I the only one with these various problems...??
Hi all,
I start my first post and introduction ever on this forum with a imposing problem with Aperture 3.03
I just did the upgrade to Aperture 3 & 3.03. Coming off Aperture 2, I was able to rotate, crop and do all the things I wanted by just placing the pointer while clicking, holding, and moving all at the same time with no issues. With Aperture 3.03, no such luck. I've noticed that now if I want to rotate an image or even crop an image the first effort to move anything is ignored. It shows all the signs of being ready to move something, but nothing happens, nothing moves on first try. If I stop the click and place click the second time it is responsive as usual....What gives???
Here is another issue. Cropping is all over the place and never right on the first try. Even if I have a set aspect ratio it does not provide me with the one I selected. I'm always getting the wrong aspect ratio even though the right one is selected. If I pick "Master Aspect Ratio", I get a variable ratio instead of a fixed ratio??? If I click again it changes again. This program is not stable!!
One other thing has anyone noticed that you cannot use the arrow keys to move from one picture to another after editing the photo?? It is happening to me. If I complete an edit and want to move to the next photo, the program will not respond to key commands in any way. I'm forced to return to Browser mode and even then it seems hit or miss whether is responds to key commands again. navigating seems to be a big impediment when actively editing.
So, am I the only one with these problems???
Lets hear your story...
Note: just installed the newest stability update for Snow Leopard/Aperture 3 just made available on August 18, 2010. No change...
Steve,
Bethlehem, Pa.
Message was edited by: hdskullfire2I don't see any of these issues! You have listed several, disconnected issues. Perhaps you should pick one of them, and give us a blow-by-blow of your action steps.
For rotation, click that button at the bottom of the View window, and then use one of the [ or ] bracket keys as listed for direction.

My iPhone 5 is not being recognized by my iMac. All my other devices, including iPod and iPad are recognized with no sync problems. I've tried every approach with online help as well as an Apple advisor by phone. Help? Any other suggestions other than going to an Apple Store?

Oh I know there are many other vocabulary mistakes but never mind them I was just too excited when I wrote all of that while typing very quickly
P.S: if you have any question then ask and please do tell me if it works or not with u but I'm definitely sure it'll work so tell me this and we'll get excited together
Also if you have an experience to share then do share it as well please.

Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems
Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems.
I have been working at this for about 4 hours now with no success and I am getting pretty frustrated, so if it show up in my typing please ignore it. I just don't understand why these multi-million dollar companies can't write a manual or put up a web site that can actually help someone with a problem.
Ok, venting aside.
I am running a gateway computer.
Operating System = XP
Router = Linksys WRT54G
I have two other computers that are working fine with the existing wireless net work and have been for some time.
I'm pretty good with my computer but haven't touched my router since initial set-up and all that was done was a basic set up.
My I-pod is searching for a network and I'm three feet away from it but it doesn't find it.
I printed out my wireless setting. I presume SSID name equals the name box on the ipod-touch
Security = WEP
What seems to be kicking my A$$ is the password. The route setting have never been changed so I would pesume the password should be the default "admin" which I put in (JOIN) and get the "Could not find network" screen
So, I have perused this message board trying to discover and answer to mine, and and apparently many others question with no definitive results.
So I guess what I and everybody else needs is a step by step how to guide on how to discover the info needed and enter in what we need to make this work.
Thanks in advance to anybody that can actually help with this issue. A step by step do this would be nice.Thank you Terpfen for replying, and please excuse my ill temper earlier. I've calmed down some now.
Step: 1 followed step one previously, Main screen, settings, Wi-Fi. Also set power down to 5 min to give I-Pod plenty of time to find network.
Wi-Fi Network Screen.
Wi-Fi ON
Choose a Network (searching indicator) symbol spinning.
Other ...
Ask to Join Networks ON
At this point the I-pod does not find any networks available. The indicator just spins but never returns any results. I am 3 feet for my WRT54G router.
Hence the easy connect isn't connecting.
The next step. is to manually set-up the connection.
Main screen, setting, Wi-Fi, Other.
press "Other" which brings up two fields
Name __________
Security ___________
First Question? Which Name are they looking for. when I went to my router 192.168.1.1 It has the name linksys. However, when I go to my Wireless Network setting it has the name * ???? * which is different than Linksys router.
Now, since one of the goals here is file sharing I presume I should be using the Wireless Network settings name. (which I have tried.)
Next is security, Wireless Network setting indicate setting for WEP Once this is selected you then back-up to the "Enter Network Setting Screen" and you now have a password line added.
Now I have never set a password for the router so the password for the router is the default Password "admin" And I don't recall ever setting a password for my network setting. But, I only use about three different passwords and a cycled through them still with no success.
So, I need some expert advise on how and where to find the info to input into the required field to work or what I need to reset in my router to make this work.
Thanks again for anyone who has constructive input to resolve my and probably many other peoples issues with this problem. -
used to be firefox and hulu got along just fine, never had my computer get retarded slow or any of the other things its currently doing while there's a tab open with hulu... but here lately its been eating the snot outta my processor (between firefox.exe and plugin container the two are consistently using 100% of my processor... most of it being firefox.exe itself)
and tonight i cant watch hulu at all. the video shows a frame then its another 10-15 seconds before another single frame is showed.
my firefox is the most current version.
my adobe flash player plugin is the most current version.
there's no reason this should be happening but it is happening and its friggin annoying
============================
this happens anytime i'm in the part of hulu that has the player for showing whatever episode i'm attempting to watch. when i attempt to watch hulu i have no other tabs open and no other excess programs running on my computer, and firefox+plugincontainer run my CPU to 100% just between those two processes. i can browse around the internet just fine (like checking my email, or even getting to my queue list on hulu, which i have my homepage set as.. the queue list loads fine but the player part of hulu is when things go to crap)
and i just tried the exact same episode of lie to me that i couldnt watch on firefox.... tried watching it on internet explorer and its playing perfextly fine EVEN WHILE FIREFOX IS OPEN.
firefox is my preferred browser and i hope this junk can be fixed somehow.Hi John, Sorry you have such problems, but you are in the wrong place for such a discussion.

2014 .3 is much too buggy and full of error messages. Creating problems as I am on a timeline with my client and I don't have time to fool around with all the problems.
You didn't mention what error(s) you've encountered? A workaround for the most commonly hit problem is here Re: error in Muse : Object UID:U6875 has two (or more) owners: U3633 and U3165
If you have a copy of your .muse file that has not been saved using 2014.3, you can downgrade by uninstalling Muse and then choose Previous Version in the Filters drop down in the Apps panel of the Creative Cloud desktop app. There will be a popup next to Muse where you can select a prior version to install.
