A few questions I really need answered!

Hello, my name is Ryan. My Mom bought me an iPod Classic [80GB Black] and I get to open it before Christmas to put Music on it, Charge it, etc. After reading that many iPod Classic owners are having problems, I need these questions answered:
I have heard that the iPod Classic's hardrive can be heard when playing Music, and watching TV shows,etc. I want to know if mine will have this problem and if it does, can it be fixed so that I can have a great iPod?
I also would like to know how do I get the firmware updates and what do they do?
I know so far that it's in iTunes but don't know where.
When I do get the firmware updates, will it eliminate the hearing the hardrive problem?
The hearing the hardrive problem is my biggest worry. I think that I'm going to get a piece of crap iPod and going to have to return it and go through this whole process again.
My Mom bought the iPod on 12/13/07 and I was wondering if the problem has been fixed with the later batches of iPods?
Please answer these as I am opening the iPod next weekend to put Music on it, Charge it, Firmware Updates then have to open it AGAIN on Christmas.
Again, the hardrive thing is my biggest fear because I want to have an awesome iPod the first time!
Thank you!

Hard drive noise is practically non-existant.
Firmware updates almost happen automatically. I believe yours should have the current firmware on it (1.0.3), Mine did when I bought it on the 9th.
Lag on coverflow's just gonna happen sometimes. But it's not like it takes a whole minute, just a couple seconds if you're doing a fast scan. It's a very cool feature if you're like me and make sure to have covers for all your albums. About the only issue I seem to have with it is that it sorts by artist instead of album title thus resulting in multiple copies in the flow listing if you have different artist listings in one album. But when you click on it it shows the tracks for the whole album so it's no big deal. If you have a few albums with duplicate titles (Like "Greatest Hits") then I suggest just putting the artist name in parenthesis after the album title so you and your ipod don't get confused. Otherwise it'll show the tracks for all the "greatest hits" albums thinking it's all one album... but I think that just happens in album listing... might happen in coverflow once you select a specific album. No big deal there though, nothing to lose sleep over
I hope you enjoy your iPod and your early christmas . It was always tough for me to act surprised when I already knew what my presents were, but maybe you're better at that than me... who knows?

  • Captivate 8 Demo. Few questions i couldn't answer by myself.

    Hello,
    I'm new with captivate and also english is not my native language so please excuse me incase you'll have hard time understanding me.
    Firstly i must say that my work is kinda strict, not much space for trying out something new, most of elements and design are documented and could not be changed. So switching to another application to make courses can be tricky.
    I see now that Captivate is a powerful tool, but lots of things are harder to do in it or i wasnt searching good enough.
    Perhaps someone could give me few tips on this problems?
    1. Its really hard to make some widgets do what you want. Many seemmingly easy things look so undecidable... One of them is Glossary widget. Is there any way to add cyrilic words in it? When i add them - nothing appears because there are only latin letters at bar text line. Maybe there is cyrrilic version for that widget?
    2. Wanted to ask about pausing project from auto advancing, but suddenly auto advancing work properly when i add invisible disabled buttons on slide and stops when i want to. Still would be so cool if devs could add Stop Auto Advance option.
    3. Scrollbar widget. Cant i somehow format text in more than one format?
    I need something like this:
    4. Is there any possible way to add HTML tags in text captions? Also, is there a way to implement your styles (.css-file) and use it in captions? For example, i can't paint circles in marked list with needed color, that is other than text, wanted to do it with special style i used before.
    5. TOC. Is there any way to move TOC on other than left or right locations?
    How can i make slide names move to a next line instead of getting cut?
    How can i remove "Slide Title" phrase and bookmark symbol? (using white font now to make it invisible).
    6. Table widget. Is there a way to delete borders between rows or columns?
    Want to achieve something like this:
    7. How can i get the variable defining number of attempts for a question? Want to place the number on slide so viewer could see how many attempts he is still having.
    8. I turned off numbering in a question but now there is a huge space between circle and an answer. Is there a way to decrease this space?
    Thats it for now. Would really appreciate if someone could help me with this.

    D) !reload
    E) type zl if you have your password and username in the formfile.

  • Hello I have a few questions and I need some help with my iTunes and  iPod

    Hello iTunes people.
    I have a little problem with my iTunes. I actually almost know nothing about iTunes really. But I have had a 80 gig ipod .. ummm I think it's a iPod classic maybe. A long time ago I just downloaded iTunes. I think one of my tech friends already had put the program onto my PC so I did not even have to download it. Anyways I put my life's collection of mp3's onto iTunes and then syncs it with my iPod and it worked great. Here is my problem. I just recently bought a MONSTER PC. I have lovingly named it " ED209 " I downloaded iTunes for it and I have the most up to date version.8.1.1 is the most current version correct? Ok well here is my problem. What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library. I DO NOT want to import anything from the library or playlist or whatever you call it ONTO the iPod because there is nothing in the library. Now this is were its gets weird and possibly silly. A person I was chatting with on Facebook sort of made fun of me because she was like " Dude! Just push " Sync " But the reason I am paranoid is because THIS is the message I get....
    " The iPod " Aaron's iPod " is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this iTunes library? "
    HOLY COW!! That girl on Facebook was making fun of me but READ THAT. That exactly says ERASE the "iPod" and Sync with THIS library " It does not say put what is ON the iPod into THIS Library. It says it the other way around. Clear as day it says it will ERASE the " Ipod " it does not say " Fill the library with whats on your iPod "
    Do I all of a sudden not understand English or something???? I know how to freaking read and from what it says is sounds a 100 percent like " we will ERASE youe iPod and put everything from this playist or library onto your iPiod" But there is NOTHING in my library? Am I mentally challenged or what?
    I hope someone can help me here and I have another request. Could someone just tell me all the cool things I can do with iTunes and my iPod? I am trying to read the help files and the FAQ and whatever else Apple provides you with but it has SO MUCH crap that looks usless. I find myself reading a whole paragraph about some simple little section of s section of a section of a feature! Know what I mean. Someone give me the long and short of the neat things I can do with this stuff. I have windows Vista with a wicked computer that has like 6 gigs of ram and m iPod is a 80 GB Classic
    help !!
    PROTEUS

    *What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library.*
    1). Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
    2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
    5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • InDesign printing question - help really needed!

    Maybe an easy question maybe not!
    Usually here at work our printing is out-sourced, but for a project I'm currently working on I need to print a few bits on the work printer [for the client]. So, I've got a black page [4 colour black] with large red text - when I send to print, obviously the black prints first; leaving white gaps for the text; red prints next but due to slight movement [I guess] I always seem to get what appears to be a tiny white outlines around sections of the text [where the red hasn't printed exactly in the gaps left when applying the black].
    Just wondering if there is any way around this, to minimise the issue, in InDesign. Or is this due to the printer used?
    Cheers in advance

    I'm reading the post to look something like this (0|100|100|0 red on a field of 65|50|50|100 black):
    http://www.zenodesign.com/scripts/redonK.png
    If I hide the black channel it looks like this:

    If I simulate the black plate off register, it looks like this:

    In this case you couldn't get white because there's no white on any of the plates.

  • Combo drive question, I really need your help!!

    Hi,
    I plan to buy a 9.5mm combo drive for my macbook pro (my superdrive died and I just need a new cheap optical drive) but I have one question: will I be able to use that combo drive to install Leopard (a dual layer dvd) on my macbook? Will the combo drive read dual layer dvd's? Thanks

    My son's optical drive died on his macbook. I looked into replacements, and noted that a burner was only $50 more than a combo drive. However, including installation, this was going to get expensive. I bought a portable external drive from LaCie for $110, saving $200+. The portable drive is very small and powered from the firewire port.
    If this is feasible for you, it may be a superior and cost-effective option.

  • Very stupid question, but i need answer

    how do i delete music from my ipod >.<
    plz answer

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
    If you are updating automatically then delete the files from the iTunes library and next time you connect they will automatically be deleted from your iPod.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and click on the icon when it shows in the iTunes source list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly.
    To select multiple items such as all the songs in an album, click on the first track in the list hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight the selection. Then press the delete key.
    To summarise, you start by highlighting the song/video/selection in either the iTunes library or on the iPod song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod
    There are also a couple of ways that do not involved deleting from iTunes. The default iPod setting is automatically update with iTunes when connected. You can keep the automatically update setting and select "automatically update selected playlists only" then all you need to do is remove the song from the chosen playlist(s) and update, it remains in your library should you want to add it in future.
    Another way but more difficult to manage is to choose the "Only update checked songs" option in the iPod Preferences. By un-checking a song in iTunes, it will not be updated to the iPod and if already on the iPod, unchecking the song in iTunes will remove it from the iPod during the next update with iTunes.

  • A few questions before I buy a new iMac/Mac mini and sign up for Creative Cloud.

    Hello Everyone,
    I am looking to purchase a new Apple computer and sign up for Creative Cloud within the next week and I have a few questions that should be answered before I proceed.
    My wife and I own a business and we will be using the CS6 apps to create brochures, Constant Contact mailings, product package inserts, edit product photography for print and web use, and short HD how-to videos. We are not graphics professionals or power users and wont be doing anything too complicated.
    Any help and answers will be greatly appreciated.
    I will start with the hardware questions first:
    I am trying to decide between the iMac and the Mac mini.
    The iMac is a 2.7Ghz Quad-core Intel core i5 and comes with 4GB of memory that is expandable to 16GB, which I will do for sure. It comes with a Radeon HD 6770M graphics card with 512MB of GDDR5 memory(not upgradable), and a 1TB HDD that runs at 7200RPM. This unit meets the specs required.
    The 2.5Ghz Mac Mini comes with 4GB of memory that is expandable to 8GB, I will also do this. It has a Radeon HD 6630M graphics card with 256MB of GDDR5 memory(not upgradable), and a 500GB HDD that runs at 5400RPM. This unit meets all the spec(I think) except for the speed of the HDD.
    Question: Will the mini run the software without too much of an issue considering the speed of the HDD?
    Question: Will the iMac run the software significantly better to justify the price difference?
    I already have 1 mini(purchased 4 months ago, with the same specs listed above) and will be purchasing a second computer for my wifes desk. If the mini will run CS6 fine, that is great and we can save a few bucks. If my mini will not run CS6 well, I will get the iMac for her desk as she will be doing the bulk of the work in that regard anyway.
    Now a couple of software questions.
    After reading hundreds of reviews and forum posts over the last few days I have seen many people having this or that issue. It seems to me that most of the issues are because of upgrades from Lion to Mountian Lion after installing CS6 first or trying to open CS3,4,5 files in CS6.
    If you want to know what issues have me concerned take a look at just this one forum:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2012/07/adobe-cs-apps-mountain-lion-no-known-issues.html
    Similar issues are discussed in the Apple forums as well as many other places around the web.
    I am not a computer professional but I know enough to maintain my systems and keep them running smoothly.
    We do not have any Adobe software installed on my mini and will not be opening any files from previous versions of Adobe product in the new CS6 software. These will be a clean installs on pristine systems running fully updated Mountian Lion OS's on both machines and creating new files from scratch.
    Question: Should I be expecting any issues like the ones I have read in the forums and blogs or are these just the normal things that happen when upgrading to new software with multiple hardware configurations?
    My feeling is that we will not be having too much of a problem due to the clean installs and no files from previous versions.
    Next up, the Creative Cloud(CC) FAQ states that you can install on 2 machines but can't open stuff at the same time.
    Question: Does this mean we can't be using any CS6 apps at the same time or just not using the same app at the same time?
    Example: PS and PS on both machines at same time = No, PS on one and Dreamweaver on the other at the same time=Yes?
    The CC FAQ page says Adobe will add Lightroom 4 later in 2012 while the main CC page lists it as available now.
    Question: Which is true?
    My mini is registered to me, with my name, iTunes account, Apple ID etc.
    Question: Do I need to do the initial set-up of the new machine with all my information to ensure the CS6 suite works on both machines? Do the computers need to be registered(as far as Apple configuration is concerned) to same person for them to work on one CC account or can I install CS6 on any 2 machines regardless of how they were initially set-up?
    This may seem like a silly question but I want to avoid any problems before they happen.
    Well, those are all of my questions at the moment. To anyone who made it this far in my looooong post, Thank You so much for your time. I appreciate your expertise and knowledge and hope that you can help me make this decision.
    Cheers,
    Alex Bogdan

    Alex,
    I'll try and answer your questions as best I can.
    Qn 1 Which Mac.
    Ans:- As I understand it both units will run Adobe CS6.
              Which one really depends on what you wand from CS6. If you are looking for high end demand and performance, then I would go for the IMac
              Your Specs for the Imac are right. However if you buy your IMac straight from Apple there are even higher specs.
              You can get:-
                                  3.4 GHz i7 processor rather than the i5
                                   2GB video card as opposed to a 1Gb video card.
                                   Of course such a model will cost you more.
              In the end it is needs compared with money to spend. That is only a decision you cam make.
    Q2:- Will the higher cost for the Imac justify copst.
    Ans:- Again it depends on what demands you intend to make on the hardware and software.
              But I note you have a business and if that businees expects to high demand and high speedy performance then I suspect the Imac would be more able to provide your needs.
              Again only you will know the answer to that.
    Q3:- Questions about CS6 reliability
    Ans:- I have been with Adobe for way over 10 years.
             Speaking, only for myself, it is the most reliable software on the market.
              It is true that if you look down this form, like any other and I am thinking about the Apple discussions forum, you will find numerous instances of problems.
              Again this is only my opinion, but although all these problems are real for the individuals:-
              First it is not clear why they have the problem e.g. what have they done or not done.
              Second, they are in the minority of the total users using the hardware / software.
              The only problem I am aware of with CS6 is Acrobat X. I understand it has been sorted Adobe, however it cost me so much work I have removed it from my system and reverted to Acrobat 9
              So what I am saying is that there are only two comapnies I rely 100% on: They are Adobe and Apple.
             So if you are happy with my opinion I would not worry about Adobe CS6
    Qn 4:- CS6 0n 2 machines.
    Ans:- Yes you will not be able to run the same program similtaneosly.
               I believe, if it is important that you do run the same program together, that you can acquire a further licience from Adobe to do that.
               You would need to contact Adobe about that.
    Qn 5:- Lightroom 4
    Ans:- Lightroom is now available as part of Creative Cloud.
    Qn 6:- Set up for individual machines
    Ans:- I do not believe you do. Once you have set up your Creative Cloud account you go to the apps site and download the apps for each machine.
              Each machine downloads the apps and your machine and the apps are registered by Adobe.
             Here is something that you may want to know:-
              Because I was so unhappy loosing all the Acrobat data with Acrobat X I ended up deleting Acrobat X
              However as far as Creative Cloud is concered Acrobat X is still on my machine.
              It is not a problem for me because I am happy with Acrobat 9, it fullfils my needs and has not crashed and lost me all my bookmarks.
              However here is the point:-
              Adobe, when there was a problem with Acrobat X requested that no-one deletes the application.
             Though I do not know for certain I believe registration of the apps you have with Creative Cloud are registered with Creative Cloud in their database. Therefore were you to delete an app, it will still be registered with Creative Cloud and you will not be able to download a further copy even though the app is no longer on your    machine.
              Therefore it maybe not a good idea to delete an app when you no longer have a use for it. If you want it back I suspect you will have to contact Adobe Support
    Personal Comment:-
              It is true many unfortunately have had all sorts of problems, including me with Acrobat X.
              That said, Creative Cloud in my view has been a major advance in how Adobe delivers software. I have no regrets with signing up to Creative Cloud and I expect to remain with it.
    Hope all of that goes some way to answering your questions.

  • Few questions about nokia lumia 720...

    I recently bought a Nokia Lumia 720 and have a few questions I would like answering...
    Why do we need to link our phone to a microsoft account? What if you dont want to link your email and your phone contacts? My phone is now full of useless numbers of people I havent spoken to\want to speak to.
    Where do I report bugs that I find with the phone? I have found a few.
    Why cant I sign into Skype without linking to a microsoft account too? [same issue as before]
    It would also be good if we could assign custom ring tones... I thought this would have been a standard feature.
    Sorry for the moan... 
    Jimmy 

    As I said, you can either set up a separate MS account just for the phone or you can filter you contacts under People > Settings > Filter contact lists so that you see only the ones you want to see. Linking to a cloud account is extremely useful for keeping a backup and for restoring the phone if you lose, change or simpley have to hard reset it. A friend lost his Lumia while travelling abroad, bought a new one on the spot, found a free wifi network and had all his contacts, messages and apps installed and running within half an hour.
    I don't understand your last point - if you mean restart the phone when it is frozen for any reason, that can be done by holding both the Power and Volume Down button pressed for maybe 10-15 seconds until the phone vibrates and restarts. That is usually called a soft reset and you do not lose any settings or data except the date and time settings which you need to set again manually. Otherwise you can simply turn the phone Off and On by holding the Power button pressed.

  • Few Mac questions and I need some answers

    Hello guys,
    I'm considering to buy a new Mac and I have a few questions:
    1. Whats better a Macbook Pro or iMac?
    I prefer desktops but notebooks are still useful. plus,I already have a notebook.
    I just don't know whats better and well-priced than the other, aside from the fact that one is a desktop and the other is a mobile laptop!
    2. Can I return a Mac if I don't like it?
    3. Do I get any kind of worldwide warranty specially in Saudi Arabia?
    because I'm going to buy it form Canada
    4. Can I get Arabic characters on the keyboard from Apple.ca as an additional option?!
    5. Should I wait for a newer Mac or a better deal?
    any news or rumors for 2010?!
    Thank you all
    chillinmango
    * Note: if this post isn't in the correct forum section, feel free to move this

    As for #1...better for what? What do you plan on doing with it. For example, a MacBook are often touted as "bulletproof" and might be better if you're planning on taking the computer with you as you hike through Europe knowing it might get dinged and banged around a bit. But if you want to do high-end graphics and videos, then you probably want a pro.
    Is it for taking notes while in college or for work at an architectural firm? What will you be doing with it? Also, have you checked out both in person? Because, as said, there is also a matter of taste involved (assuming that cost is not that big an issue).

    This has been covered here many times already, but again and in brief, because the owners of the content (who often are completely different from country to country, at least as far as licensing is concerned) do not allow cross-border sales.

    You'd have to ask the movie studios that question. They're the ones to in large part set the prices. Content owners across the board - music, movies, books, etc. - have mostly kept prices at high, if not higher, than the physical equivalent. It's starting to change, but only very slowly.
    3)why the movies i bought dont have any subtitles? not only no DVD are offered in french, there is not even french subtitle, not even english subtitles!!
    Again, you'd have to ask the movie studios that question. Matters of content are totally under their control.
