A lot of questions but few answers.  That is a fact.

A lot of questions and few answers.  That is a fact.  My question is about deregistering a kaputt PC, and synchronizing iPod and iPod with a replacement PC w/o losing content.  I had a Toshiba with tummy trouble sychronized with and iPod and an iPad.  I bought content on all three and added content from CDs I already had.  They synchronized fine.  I deleted iTunes on the troubled Toshiba and installed it on a new Gateway.  The Gateway has far less content on iTunes and threatens to delete content from the iPod or iPad if I synchronize.  All I want to do is get all the shtuff together again on at least the Gateway and the iPod, preferably the iPad also.  Also, how to deregister the kranky Toshiba given that iTunes is deleted on it.  Why am I appealing to someone out there with time on their hands.  Doesnt Apple employ people for that?  If not, its high time they did.

Apple does employ people to help with technical problems. They're called Apple Technical Support, available by phone (use the Contact Us link at the lower-right of any Apple web page), and Geniuses, available at any Apple Store.
As to your questions, I'm not completely clear on where you have what content, but if it's all on your iPod or iPad, then you can transfer the content back into iTunes (a subject which, by the way, has been covered here many times already). For content purchased from the iTunes Store, see this support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
For content not purchased from the iTunes Store, check out this post from Zevoneer for some iPod/iPhone media recovery options:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10570955#10570955
As to your question about "deregistering", I presume you're referring to authorization to the iTunes Store. It would have been best to have deauthorized the Toshiba before you uninstalled iTunes. You cannot yourself deauthorize a computer that's not working or to which you no longer have access. You can authorize a total of up to five systems, so it's probably not really important that you deauthorize your dead unit now. Once you reach five total authorizations, a button will appear in your iTunes Store account that will allow you to deauthorize all your systems, so that would at that time recover the now-useless authorization.
Regards.

  • Lots of questions and no answers?

    Hi All,
    I've posted the message about NAT through a 3000 series VPN concentrator. i got a quite helpful answer from someone. BUT, it appears that this forum has quite a lot of questions and no answers.
    Do Cisco people answer questions? who knows the offical support line that i presume (mutter mutter) costs per incident or something similar?
    thanks
    Matthew

    Matthew,
    The heading for the forum goes :

    If you you need more support please go to this link instead and maybe you would find what you are after. http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/support_solutions.shtml .

  • TS1702 Asking for security question to be answered that I don't know the answer to.

    Itunes is asking fo security questions to be answered that I don't seem to know the answers to. Need help fixing this problem.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

  • Partition Terror---Quick question but very important that I know the answer

    I bought my iBook G4 about 4 months ago, and when I got it I didn't make any partitions. 4 months ago I didn't even know what a partition was. But, now I need to make another partition. With only one partition right now it isn't as easy as booting up into a different partition and editing the one I want to. I have one partition and that is the boot partition (obviously). I need to find a (freeware, I'm broke as of now) program that you can boot up into. I also can't afford an external hard drive (seriously, everything right now has to be free).
    So basically:
    Q: Can anyone find a bootable program that lets you resize and add partitions that is free.
    A: ????????
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Small HD

    I want that other partition because my friend is BEGGING me to try linux. I don't see why I couldn't just try it for him. I am only going to make a small 5 GB Partition. My info does say small HD, but that doesn't mean it's all used up. I have a 30 GB HD and I have only used about 10 GB. Also, if anyone knows any Live CD version of linux, or one that can run of a flash drive (other than flashlinux). The reason I want to do this is because I know I am eventually going to end up sending his emails to the junk folder and block his instant messages and block his calls on my cell phone if I don't just try linux. He won't give up until I try it, just the same way he's been trying to get me to switch back to windows (That won't happen, ever, windows *****). Anyways, I just want to prove to him that Mac is better. Also he showed me a linux only program I'm really interested in, so thats another reason. I have a feeling that i'm going to have to take about 20-30 screen shots to prove to him I tried it. But really, that program is the main reason I want to get a small 5 GB portion of my HD for it.

  • Many questions, very few answers

    A few weeks ago I posted a question about Mac, mobile telephone and bluetooth. Have not got one single answer yet. Then I realised that there are a long list of similar questions in this forum, but very few useful answers. Does anyone have a theory about why this is so and what can be done to improve the situation?
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    In just 5 minutes I was able to set up my MacBook Pro to use my Sony Ericsson M600i as a blue-tooth modem. Here's how I did it:
    These instructions are taken from Ross Barkman's web-site http://www.taniwha.org.uk/. Even though the example below is for the SonyEricsson M600i, Ross provides 3G modem scripts for most handset makes. I have successfully used Ross scripts to set up networking with my SonyEricsson M600i as well as with my Nokia N70 and N80. Ross' scripts are pintware so please send Ross a small donation such as $5 for his excellent work.
    Ross also provides local operator settings which you need in order to configure Internet Connect. For example, in the case of the Swedish operator Telia you enter the following:
    Telephone Number: online.telia.se
    User: guest
    Password: guest
    For all other operators, please see: http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html
    Instructions
    1. Download the Sony Ericsson Modem Scripts from Ross Barkmans web site: http://www.taniwha.org.uk/files/SonyEricsson3G-2005-01.sit
    Drop the modem scripts into Library/Modem Scripts
    2. Set up PPP:
    A. Open Network Preferences
    B. Optional: Create a new location - call it "Mobile" or whatever (this is not absolutely necessary, since the modem config in the current location can have different settings to the existing Ethernet, etc. ports, but a separate location may be useful if you already have a mobile phone dial setting for the same IrDA/Bluetooth/USB port in your default location)
    C. Select "Show: Bluetooth" (or a USB-serial or IrDA Modem port if you are using those)
    D. Select the PPP tab and enter your network name in "Service Provider".
    E. Enter in "Telephone Number" the APN for your network or NONE
    F. Enter the Account name & Password (if required)
    G. Press the "PPP Options..." button
    H. Make sure that 'Send PPP echo packets' is not selected
    3. Set up modem
    A. Select the Bluetooth Modem (or the equivalent USB or IrDA name) tab in Network Preferences
    B. Set 'Modem: "Sony Ericsson 3G <whichever script you're trying>"'
    4. If using IrDA, turn on Sony Ericsson Infrared port:
    A. <This procedure varies from phone to phone - see your users guide>
    B. Line up phone's IR port facing IR port on PowerBook.
    5. Connect:
    A. Open Internet Connect
    B. Select Bluetooth Modem Port (or the equivalent USB or IrDA port name)
    C. Click "Connect"
    D. No dial/modem sounds are heard during connection process

  • HT201363 My account is asking for my security questions, but the answer to one is never right. Also, I can't receive reset information because the emergency email ends with .con, a mistake I missed when creating my account. Please help me I'm getting very

    Please help, my account will be locked. The safety email is s*****@gmail.con. It ends with .con. IT ENDS WITH .con. Since the last time you people didn't take that into account I decided to make it very obvious. Also, I can't change the email because I have to answer the security questions. Which I can't do because out of 4 choices, none are correct, and I can't get a reset email because the email doesn't exist and will never exist. I'm getting irritated because I also can't get proper support, mostly because I connot call, and the support I received didn't solve my problem because they didn't bother to read the whole problem. This is ruining my Apple experience, please help, or help me find someone who can.

    The other option is the ExpressLane at https://expresslane.apple.com and then iTunes, iTunes Store, Password and Security Questions, Forgotten Security Questions and then you have choices for making contact but those are still limited to calls or rescue email.  So this comes back to the same problem if you cannot call or receive an email.

    Hi!
    I don't have a solution fou you, just a few ideas =)
    You can check what headers response contains with
    response.containsHeader( "your_header_here");
    http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.2.1/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse.html#containsHeader(java.lang.String)
    after that you could set/overwrite those headers that you don't like with, for example:
    response.setHeader("Cache-control", "no-cache,max-age=0,must-revalidate");
    Aparently Pragma and Cache-control headers should be used in pair, as noted here
    http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2005-12/0003.html
    quote:"The author of Bad Behavior points out that RFC2616 requires that a
    Pragma: header to be accompanied by a Cache-Control: header. From what I
    see, it only says "SHOULD" (in section 14.32), but that is still a
    strong recommendation and something to be considered, IMHO."
    I'm a bit sceptical about you needing to cache the file, but if you feel strong about it, you could read this
    http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/#META
    If you're working on SSL there is supposed to be some kind of validation, certificate or something like that. IE6 and 7 both have strong security measures in these regards. Maybe you should look something up in that direction.
    Hope I helped.

  • Stupid question (but please answer)

    Hey all,
    I have a question, it is probably extremely lame, but please resist laughing at me.
    I have a desk in my house that I love to study, problem is that it is in the direct sunlight in the morning. Will it damage or warp my LCD display if I put the computer there near the window? I often leave my Acer there, however, it has a plastic body not an alumium one.
    Thanks,
    Stu

    I doubt it will damage it; but a general rule is to keep LCDs (or any electronics) away from direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

  • Anyone know how to remove Overdrive books from my iphone that have been transferred from my computer? They do not show up on itunes. I see a lot of answers to this question but they all are based on being able to see the books in iTunes.

    How do I remove Overdrive books from the library that were downloaded onto my computer then transferred to my iphone? The problem is that they do not show up in iTunes.
    I see this question asked a lot when I google, but they always give answers that assumes you can find the books in iTunes either under the books tab, or the audio books tab or in the music. They do not show up anywhere for me. They do not remove from the app like the ones I downloaded directly onto my iphone.the related archived article does not answer it either.  I even asked a guy working at an apple store and he could not help either.   Anybody...?
    Thanks!

  • My ipad mail is synced to my iMac mail account. On iPad, I can only see my inbox and sent messages. I can't see any of the folders I have created on my iMac. How do I do that? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there!

    My iPad mail is synced to my private email account, which I organise on my iMac. On iPad, I can only see inbox and sent messages folders, not any of the other folders in my email account I have created on my iMac. How do I get iPad to show my other folders? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there.

    If you select a mailbox, you should get an Edit button (easier to see in landscape mode). Clicking the button will provide you with check circles for the messages. You also get Delete and Move buttons at the bottom. Check the messages you want to move and then navigate to the mailbox you want to drop them into. I think as long as you can navigate to a mailbox you can move the messages to it.
    In the Mac Mail application and probably Outlook on the Windows side, you also setup rules to move messages to specific mailboxes. If the mailboxes are stored on the server, then you can have the sorting done on the server and they should appear that way on the iPad. If your later messages do not show up, you may need to have the iPad app pulled down more messages until they are all showing.

    You can't see your card redemption history - you can try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) but they might not be able to help you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    You've checked the purchase history on your account ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases
