After 2 weeks my ipod quit working, please help.
I’ve had my iPod 30GB for 2 weeks and it has worked perfect until last night when I properly unhooked from the computer (which I do many times a day) and the display showed the apple icon. The first thing I did was to reset it. after four minutes it showed the language screen and after another minute it went to the menu (does this each time I reset it). All my content was gone. Neither itunes or ipod updater recognize it. I put it in “disk mode” same results. It shows as a drive in windows explorer but when I click on it the computer shows “please insert disk into drive” I went though all the steps I could find on the web site and even tried to install it on a computer that has never had itunes on it. Same results. I have a second cable I tried also. The first time I reset the ipod it made a couple of clunking noises that it did not make before or since. Any ideas I hate to have to send it back.

Ipod not working, please help!!!!
I brought my ipod nano in september of last year. i have had no problem with it unitll now. yesterday when i went to navigate through the music section on my ipod it reset itself to the black apple logo. i have now fixed this problem and can navigate through the "music" file. However now whenever i connect the ipod to itunes, my ipod is recognised however when i connect it, it immediatly dis-connects itself from itunes. i also have a black pad lock next to the bar at which states how much free space i have left on the ipod. What is this?!?!?. i have read about many peoples problems with corrupt podcasts and i believe that i have a corrupt podcast. when i explore the ipod in my computer it shows a podcast in the music folder which i have tried to delete but whenevr i try to delete it it comes back again. this is the route to my problem i believe becasue now deleting every song off the ipod through my computer, this podcast is the only remaining item left on the ipod. I have tried the 5r's to correct my problem but whenevr i get to the last "r" (restore) i open the ipod updater and it says "internal ipod manager error" and shuts down the ipod updater.
sorry for the long post and please, someone help me!!!<br>

Try the steps listed here...
Strange iPod Behavior
The lock is normal. It means the iPod is set to automatically update.
Also, where are you deleting the podcast from? A folder on the iPod through My Computer?

my windows is 7(ultimate)
I understand that after you installed Firefox, it forked one time and it will no longer works. I do not understand what you mean when you say it was forked. Generally a reinstall is helpful here if Firefox will not start correctly, however be sure to make a back up [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

Fingerprint reader quit working PLEASE HELP
Help! I have tried seaching these forums, and nothing has worked.
My fingerprint reader was working fine this morning when I signed into windows. A couple of hours later, it just stopped working. HP Simple Pass seems to not even recognize it anymore.
I have tried restoring my system. Did not work.
I have tried re-installing the driver for the fingerprint reader from HP. Did not work.
Biometric Devices does not even show up in my device manager.
I am stuck, and I would really like to have this working again. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I have a Pavilion dv6.
Model #: A3E82AV
BIOS: F.26 - 04/03/2013 (0790100000205710000620100)
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
Thank you
This question was solved.
View Solution.You did not state your OS: Assuming Windows 8 - 64bit
HP Pavilion dv6t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers & Downloads
Assuming you are on the latest HP SimplePass as shown on your website --
this is important and where you need to be:
sp61399 HP SimplePass V6.0.100.272 Win7-8
NOTE: This version runs on Windows 7 AND Windows 8
==================================================================================
When you say that you reinstalled the Driver from HP,
Did you download and install the driver from your Website?
Validity Sensor Driver:
sp58900 Validity Sensor V4.4.234.0
==================================================================================
You might try the following:
Notebooks- Power Reset to Resolve Hardware and Software Issues- Sealed Non-Removable Battery
OR
Notebooks - Power Reset to Resolve Hardware and Software Issues - Removable Battery
The Power Reset cannot tell the difference between drivers - it does not analyze a driver before applying it.
EXAMPLE:
If the driver on disk is the wrong driver before the Reset, it is still the wrong driver after the Reset.
If the driver INSTRUCTIONS are tangled, messed up, or missing, then the Reset may fix the problem.
Why a Power Reset works to fix some issues:
The Power Reset does not install anything on your computer, it does not remove anything from your computer, and the Reset does not "change" anything on your computer. Your data and programs remain as they were before the reset was applied. The Reset drains out the old instructions and makes the computer go to the Operating System on disk to get new instructions.
Why a Power Reset might Not Work:
If the issue is more than just entanglement, if the "good instructions" on the computer are not good enough -- that is, you need an update, a new driver, or there is a problem that cannot be "untangled", then the Reset will not work.
If there is a hardware problem the Power Reset will not work.
===================================================================================
If No Joy:
Assuming that you can at least now see the Validity Sensor Driver in Device Manager > Biometrics
Then
Download your Validity Sensor Driver:
sp58900 Validity Sensor V4.4.234.0
Open Control Panel > Device Manager > Open your Biometric Devices >
Right Click on your Validity Sensor Driver > Uninstall (AND Tick to delete)
Reboot the Notebook and log in
Install the downloaded Validity Sensor driver
Reboot the Notebook and log in
====================================================================================
A suggestion:
Do not skip the requested reboots...
Good Luck!

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

After update iOS 8 some of the apps don't work please help me
After update iOS 8 some of the apps don't work please help me As fast as you can
There can be some of that. Unfortunately, it's up to the app developers to make their app work with the iOS.
So checking for updates can help. You can also look at the reviews for the app, see if others have the same issue. If 8 has broken the app, all you can do is wait.
In some cases, a reset can help. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again. (this can work if the app is fine with iOS8 but is just glitching...it's a harmless reboot of the system)
Another thing to try is to force quit the app(s) and force them to reboot. Double tap the home button. Flick the preview for the app up and off the screen to close it. Then single tap the home button to exit the mode. Try your app again. If it's just a glitch then this sometimes clears it up.
I know once I updated my devices I then had several updates pushed out - updates that required iOS8 so weren't available before the update. -

Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.

I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.
I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone. -
my keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me
Try this repair for Keynote 6.2, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
5
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
6
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
