7.3.1 is out, issue NOT resolved, problem STILL there

I was not having the library (-50) problem
My iTunes just doesn't show up after pressing the icon on the dock
triangle is there, it bounces once and the fans of my MBP become 6000rpm
in activity monitor itunes is like 100% process full loading
BUT iTunes still doesn't work!!
I feel AWKWARD and FRUSTRATED when my PC friend used my Mac and found that he couldn't even launch the native music player on the Mac - after my boast on how stable the Mac platform is...
*****

Good News! With the help of tech support, my iTunes is working!
Here is basically what they had me do:
1. The start a fresh iTunes Library fix (put iTunes library in trash and .xml on desktop - this didn't work)
2. Create a new user (create a new user for account - this also didn't work)
3. Verify/Repair Permissions (this didn't work)
4. Insert OS Disk, for me it was putting in my Panther installation disk, then shutting down and starting up with Safe Boot (to activate safe boot, hold down "c" when restarting until OS is back up - this didn't work)
5. Upgrade Quicktime to most recent ver.7.2 (after I installed this, it required my comp to restart - my computer actually went to the blue screen of death and couldn't do anything. This is when I called tech support again and they had me shut down and restart with the option button held down. This brought it back to life and then I put in the OS disk again and reinstalled my entire OS - nothing was deleted though I was back to ver. 10.3 instead of 10.3.9. After I did this, I had to download 10.3.9 and Quicktime 7.2 (again) and install them. After this, iTunes works perfectly)
I hope one of these methods works for you, worst case scenario is that you would have to reinstall your OS, and thats not bad at all. If you've had your iPod for less then a year or have Applecare, Tech support will walk you through this no problem, they were very helpful. Let me know if it works.

  • HH5 (Type A) - Drop-out issues now resolved? Still...

    I have had a quick read about the forums - nothing conclusive on this one and as BT told us time and time again there wasn't a fault with the HH5 I don't suppose there will be an official post confirming a fix :-)
    So, I had an HH3 with external VDSL modem - all was well. Upgraded to HH5 (Type A) and I had nothing but problems. Constant rebooting and my lovely 78/14 connection becamse 52/8 and wouldn't budge.
    So I went back to the HH3, had an engineer visit and all was well once more.
    Fast forward to yesterday. HH3 takes a nose dive. Don't believe it is PSU, but basically it switched off and won't come back on - it's looking rather broken.
    So, I've still got my HH5 (Type A) in the draw and thought, well I do need fast broadband at home.
    So, to the questions.
    Has the issue with the HH5 (which I had, many others had, BT said wasn't an issue etc.) now been fixed? I appreciate that I will have out of date firmware, however if I start to use it and I'm assuming the firmware will aitomatically update itself, will all the old dropped connection issues have gone away?
    If not, is an acceptable option to use the HH5 togeother with my external VDSL modem? I remember this solving a lot of people's disconnection problems as it appeared to be an integrated modem issue in the HH5 and not using that seemed to solve all issues.
    Your advice greatly received.
    Thanks.

    the firmware fix has for vast majority fixed the connection dropping problem of the hh5a  many chose to get modem and use that in conjunction with the hh5a and were happy with their choice as it stopped the conenction drops.  it also appeared to help connection in general
    so you can try just leaving modem conencted and connect the hh5a to modem using hub wan port or you can conenct hub direct to master using the hub dsl socket

  • Issues not resolved after updating to latest SP BO 4.0

    Issues not resolved after updates to latest SP
    We initially installed BO 4.0 with SP4 FP3. After that updated the installation to SP6, SP7, SP8, SP9 and SP9 patch3. We skipped SP5 as it had no issues effecting the way we work.
    Now we discovered that most of the important issues for development like being able to modify merged dimensions by adding a dimension are not resolved, despite the updates which would have fixed the issue.
    Any ideas?
    Is it possible to install SP5 afterwards and then update again to the new SP10?

    You don't need to install SP5. Latest SP you have installed, will have all the fixes of SP5.
    You cannot install SP5 after installing SP9. There is no need to install aslo.

  • The camera on my ipad cannot be launched,the shutter appears closed and the button for taking a picture is not there. When tryying to use intsgram the message camera cannot be launched appears .tried to restart but problem still there

    My camera is not working .shutter appears closed.tried to restart ipad but problem still there.no problem with photo booth problem with istangram

    Try closing the Camera app via the taskbar and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    And by restart do you mean a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot). If not, and if closing the app doesn't fix it, then you could try that.

  • Issue not resolved after repair

    Hi allI have a Samsung Galaxy Mini. I have had it on a contract for 1 year. Some time ago it started to switch itself off randomly, and I could only switch it off after removing the battery and replacing it.The battery charges and holds a charge, so that doesn't seem to be an issue.I contacted O2 and they advised me to do various things, at one point said they would send me instructions by e-mail, which they never did.Last week, after much live chat, they asked me to send the phone back and I took it to the O2 shop, explained the problem all over again, and the phone was sent off for repair.Yesterday I received the phone back with a letter saying it was fixed, software updated and ready to go. I charged the phone and it seemed ok until this morning; it was fine when I got up but then it switched off again, and again only worked when I removed the battery and replaced it.O2 live chat were hopeless, and after 50 minutes with them I asked for a number to call. Called the number, got cut off twice, waited 30 minutes in total only to be told to send the phone back again for repair. I asked if they would replace it even temporarily while it was sent away but they refused. That will be 2 weeks I have been without a phone. The receipt for the repair says it is in warranty, but the problem is non-warranty (not sure how they know that as they don't seem to have a grip on what the problem is).  I have been unable to locate their policy on repairs. Hoping someone can advise me and help bring my blood pressure to an acceptable level :/

    Your best option would be to contact Samsung support and arrange the repair through them to be honest. I and many others have no faith in O2's repairers.http://www.samsung.com/uk/info/contactus.html

  • IMac Display Issues Not Resolved

    The Apple Store at La Cantera in San Antonio Needs Help!
    I purchased my first personal iMac on May 17, 2006. It was a reconditioned model. Granted, I work for a very large urban school district in technology, I decided that the Intel Mac was for me. Within ten minutes of receiveing my iMac from Fed-ex the display began to show pinkish and green pixels all over the screen. I took the unit in that day to the Apple "Geniuses" at my local store. They booted it and immediately ordered a new MLB and LCD. I was told by the Apple support site it would be ready the 23rd of May. The day came and went and no iMac. On the 25th the store now reported that they were waiting on a Bluetooth Chip that they had broken during my repair. So, I was forced to wait over the Memorial Day weekend and finally received my iMac today. After ten minutes of use, I noticed the same exact problem I took it in for. It was as if no one had repaired it! I checked my System Profiler and noticed that my one gig stick of ram had been replaced by two sticks of 256MB of RAM! Wow! Where did my RAM go? The manager said he trusted the integrity of his techs. Does that mean he doesn't trust mine? Sadly, I am returning my iMac and will probably never make the Switch. I really wanted to. But, Apple is just not ready to please their customers.

    How is it going on?

  • 2.0.1 update does not resolve problems with contacts

    I was glad to see there was an update for the iphone 2.0 firmware.
    I was pretty tired to wait for 10 sec for my accounts to open.
    Unfortenately, problems remain after update, and opening and searching for contacts is embarresing slow

    I found out, that if you reboot the phone and don't use any third party applications it stays fast. It only get's slow if you use installed applications, of course that's not what I bought the iPhone for, but I still have hope for the next update. But they shouldn't have to let us wait tooo long...
    The source of the problem might be, that while hitting the home button the application is only freezed and so still in memory. After collecting some programs the OS has to swap to make room for the new one.

  • I-phone device not recognised in i-tunes, but is on windows. All Apple support advice does not resolve problem

    My i-phone 3GS with latest operating system is not recognised in i-tunes, howver windows XP does see the device. I have tried all Apple support reccomendations to no avail. There was an error message when last syncing the device with i-tunes, I have uninstalled / re-installed etc and the device is recognised on other PC's i-tunes?

    I have the same problem too. My phone wont show on my pc that's why I can't move my photos. But it does show on itunes.
    Then I went to device manager and this is what I found. I dont know what to do though.

  • Windows Phone 8X Update Does Not Resolve Problems

    Microsoft has published the fixes that are included in the latest update here:
    http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/basics/windows-phone-8-update-history
    None of these updates are present on my device, even though I do see the version number in my phone's "About" screen that should include these fixes.  When will these be available for my phone?

  • Running an Alarm app (now removed) when I noticed my phone alternating between a blank screen & my passcode screen. Powering off and the hard shutdown did not resolve problem. Plugged in headset, phone works normal. Remove headset problem returns.

    iPhone 4 - - I was trying out the Alarm 4 free app.  I set the alarm for 2 minutes into the future for a test.  After one minute my phone naturally went to auto-lock and into sleep mode.  At approximately the time the alarm should have activated I noticed my iPhone 4 alternating between a blank screen with the apple logo to the passcode screen.  The passcode screen is only visible for a short moment so I am unable to attempt to input my passcode.
    I tride a normal shutdown and the "hard" shutdown.  The shutdowns work OK but when the phone comes back up it returns to the blank screen with apple logo & passcode screen loop.
    The interesting part - - I plugged in a headset and the phone works normal!  Unplug the headset and the phone returns to the "loop".
    BTW - yes I did remove the Alarm 4 application!
    I also turned off the auto-lock feature.  With the auto-lock off the phone loops between the blank w/apple logo screen and my home/slide-to-unlock page.
    So - - - as long as I leave the headset plugged in the phone works normal.  If I remove the headset my phone reverts back to the "loop".
    Any ideas?

    As a matter of fact I DID get my phone to work.  "Google" the term "recovery mode for iphones".
    You'll find lots of hits.
    Here is an example -
    http://www.tipb.com/2009/01/29/iphone-101-put-iphone-recovery-mode/
    There are a few different explanations throughout the Google-world.  Some are better explained than others.
    Bottomline - it worked!!!!
    Be advised the Recovery Mode is truly a last ditch effort.  In essence you will completely wipe your phone of everything and "recover" it to straight-out-of-the-box.  Be warned!
    Good luck!

  • Sign in password not recognozed problem - is there...

    I've browsed many posts where people cannot sign in due to a password not recognized error.  Has anyone found a fix for this? I've tried a hard power off/on and deleting and re-installing Skype, but still get the error.

    Yes, I am having the same probelm.  While I can sign into Skype.com using my username and password and view my account status, profile, etc., the Skype program installed on my PC will not load using my user name and password.  This only happened after I was prompted by Skype this AM to Upgrade my Skype program at their suggestion for a "better user experience".  Now I cannot use Skype at all...

  • DNS workng but not resolving itself

    Just promoted my 1st 2012 server to DC to replace 2003 DC.  DNS has replicated to 2012 and zone entries are the same on both servers.  The hostname of the 2012 server is not resolving even though there is entries in DNS on both servers for it.
    DNS on the 2012 server seems to be resolving everything else correctly except it's own name.  Network discovery and file share are enabled.  The NIC on both servers has the IP address of the 2003 server for DNS.   I can get to the 2012
    server if I use it's IP address but Client computers need to be able to get to the 2012 server by hostname. 

    try :
    1. Restart DNS services
    2. run these commands on server :
    ipconfig \flushdns
    ipconfig \registerdns

  • How do I clean install?  I have tried the reinstall osx but still the other apps I have downloaded are still there.  And also the Safari is not working anymore... I have to install Opera to have a working browser since I reinstalled the OS... please help.

    Hi Please help me to understand how the clean install works...
    I have purchased this ultrabook hoping I can slowly learn how to work it... I am a windows user and would like to shift to linux based machines...
    My first problem is that I need to run IE explorer and media player to play wmv files on a cbt nugget iso image... It's impossible to do it since Mac does not support WMV file format... so I need to install WINE to emulate windows OS inside OS X and run windows programs... I can't install it either by following this site...
    http://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/
    I can't seem to run wine after the last step, it has given me error messages.
    Now I tried to uninstall it, not working either,
    My last resort is to restore to factory default settings > power restart, press alt key as soon as you hear mac sound... choose HD on the right side, enter WIFI key and wait for 4 hours reinstalling os x Lion
    I found out all the apps are still there.... is there something I missed????

    What you're doing is reinstalling OS X over top of your present installation. If you want to reinstall "fresh", do this:
    Reboot while holding down Command + Option + R, first use Disk Utility to erase your volume, then reinstall OS X.
    Best done if you FIRST connect to the Internet using Ethernet...much faster than WiFi.

  • Another "DO NOT DISCONNECT" problem

    Before I go on I have 2 Nano's , so the problem I have is only with one of them. So this should eliminate many of the potential solutions to this problem ie. it is not my PC , it is not i.tunes , it is not the charging / download lead etc etc. I have tried just about all the suggestions in the support section of the apple site.
    Ok the problem I am having .
    On one of my nano's , I connect it to my PC , and I get the "DO NOT DISCONNECT" etc. However this ipod is not recognised by i.tunes. No icon's on the nano screen are flashing , so it is frozen. When I disconnect it from the PC , the screen backlight is still on and the DO NOT DISCONNECT is still there. None of the buttons will work , the only thing to do is reset it , pressing the MENU and centre button for 6 secs. If this ipod is connected to the PC , I also do the reset , it resets but then goes straight back to DO NOT DISCONNECT as before. Still no response on i.tunes. Both my nano's have been used recently on this PC.
    I have tried using ipod updater to restore this ipod but the updater freezes so I can't even get to the restore button.
    When I reset the ipod , the ipod charges and you can play the songs , so it is working as it should from the point of view. but you just can't get it to connect to i.tunes and it freezes with do not disconnect on the screen , so my son is stuck with the same play list if I can't get this going.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I know you may have already seen these articles, but you can check this out:
    iPod misssing in Windows or iTunes
    iPod shows up in "My Computer" but not in iTunes
    Here's something else, that you probably haven't heard about before. It's for if you are having an internal disk problem (which you are having).
    Pick up your iPod and stand over a carpeted surface, witht the bottom play/pause side of the iPod facing the ground. Hold the iPod a couple feet above the ground (about at waist-height), and drop it.
    This often solves people with disk problems, which some symptoms are: sad-faced iPod, not being recognized by iPod Updater, folder with exclamation point, not properly disconnecting.
    Hope this might solve it!
