AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I THINK ITS TOTALLY BROKEN!!!!

I left it to charge for 5 friggen hours and i wake up and i see that like ink exploded in the interior. . . i dun know what to do, i think its permanently broken and i dont have a warranty . . . any ideas? I see like a stray of ink or something in the interior of the screen. Lately, its been going away, but thats not doing me any good, as i can hear the click wheel but cant see the screen and occasionally the backlight shows up. I have no idea what to do, i'm very ****** right now. Any ideas at all?

I have changed several screens, it is not that hard if you have some mech ability. You can get screens on ebay for under 20 dollars. there are several tutortials that will walk you through it. Instructions and a tutortial site are included as well as the take apart tools. You will need a small mangnetic (it will work best) phillips and a small flat blade screwdriver and a little patience. Just go slow and follow the instructions and in a hour or so you will have a new screen.

  • My ipod wont charge or do anything at all i think its broken

    yeah i think its broken it wont turn on(uncharged) but when i connect it to the usb it doesnt charge and doesnt make any thing at all it usualy shows a battery. i switched the usb cable and tryed a car charger nothing worked. can i switch it for a new one? ok well help me

    I just spend about 500 bucks (the 60 gig unit, plus accessories)...I would love to spend a little more on a steam roller, and make my iPod into a pancake...also, the back is so smooth, it would make and excellent skipping stone.
    I'm beyond frustrated. The unit is less that 24 hours old, the Tech's have gone home for the evening, and my unit just turns on and off by itself...If it's not broken, by the time I get home from work tomorrow, and if the battery doesn't die as well...I'm sure the unit will be toasted.
    I want my 500 bucks back

  • Root RAID-1 support totally broken in Solaris 10

    Has anyone else noticed yet that support for recovery of a RAID-1 on the root partition is totally broken under Solaris 10? While one can set up a set of RAID-1 partitions for /, swap and /export/home under Solaris 10 in the same manner as Solaris 9 and the resulting RAID-1 is functional, its recovery process is not! If you power down the machine and remove one of the IDE drives making up the RAID-1 (each on their own IDE bus of course), the machine will kernel panic as expected on bootup. However unlike Solaris 9 which allows you to still login to delete the metastat database from the missing drive, Solaris 10 immediately reboots the machine upon the kernel panic. This makes the use of RAID-1 not only non-functional but actually dangerous since it doubles the chance that you will have a drive failure which will make the machine unbootable. Back to Solaris 9 for me.

  • Less than a month and its already broken

    Dear BT and Forum users,
    I am not very happy with my BB service right now and have come on here in the hope that I might get more that platitudes and fob offs.
    So...  a few weeks ago my husband finally gave into the sales calls and agreed to have Infinity installed. Our reason - not so much faster internet but in the hope we might get a consistant service.The service we had before that was tempermental at best and we were sick of having to reset the router every other day.  (in hindsight we should have just gone with an alternative ISP).
    It was installed a couple of weeks ago and worked well until last Wednesday, since then the service has been a comedy of errors.  To start with my husband confirmed from the outset that they problem was not coming from inside the house but the customer service operator insisted on booking an engineer.
    We agreed to the Friday morning appointment. I booked the morning off work (using annual leave) and the engineer didn't show up. My husband called at 12.30 (they won't take calls from me as I'm not on the bill) and he was assured the appointment was booked in. Shortly after 1 I took a call at the home to say the "system" had lost the booking and the engineer wouldn't be coming.
    I said I was in all day, he could come now but that was clearly off script and the call centre operative wouldn't enterntain the idea (annoyingly there were 2 BT vans in my neighbourhood that afternoon). Instead they wanted me to rebook another 4 hour appointment. I couldn't stop in Saturday and wasn't going to lose more leave. I said I would discuss the options with my husband. 
    What followed that afternoon was a series of coversations with them, some with me at home and some with my husband at work offering the same options and us giving the same response. I don't know if the operatives weren't talking to each other or didn't understand but it was really irritating. In the end they said they would call my husband at 4pm. They called some time after 5 and said the would try the exchange first and call us Monday morning if they needed to access the property.
    Saturday 8.30 the engineer called to say they were on their way, we had the time so we waited. He arrived and was in the house all of 15 minutes before confirming the problem was in the exchange (all that time wasted for that!). We got a call Sunday to say they needed a new part at the exchange then today my husband got an undecipherable voicemail and a text saying the service will be fixed in the next 72 hours. He has spoken to them this evening and we're still non-the-wiser as now there's a fault further up the line. 
    Whilst all this is going on we have tried to find out if they expect us to pay for the Infinity and BT Vision whilst the services are not working. All they will say is they won't look at refunding losses until the issue is fixed. I realise they can't give us a total but it was a pretty straight forward question - am I paying for this non-service. One operator has said I can have £10 to cover the missed appointment (I value my time and annual leave a little higher).
    In all honestly the loss of internet and BT vision is frustrating but what has really dissapointed me is the lack of customer service. No one in the call centres seem to have a clue what's going on (we've had so many versions of what's wrong) and are too tied to a script. There's no sense of inconvenience - I'm supposed to be ready and waiting for 4 hours at a time but they will fix it sometime in the next 3 day. 
    Right now I'm not even sure its worth waiting to get this fixed.
    I'd love for someone to come on here and fix this for me but I'd settle for a little peer support/shared experience.
    Thanks

    OK, so I was being a little optimisitic. We're back online (yay!) but now the bill is just more of the same. Apparently we have to wait 48 hours before they will tell us how they are adjusting the bill  I understand that they cannot confirm the problem si fixed yet because of some internal policy but they won't even tell us how much they would calculate as of now - a pretty straight forward question. 
    So with that, we threw in the towel... said if they can't asnwer a simple question we were off. Of course when I told then operator this he said he's put me straight through to his boss and then left me on hold for over 20 minutes before I gave up!
    Called back to leaver dept. to be told we have to pay £200 to cancel (funny they could give us that figure pretty easily). I don't know what was said when he signed up but I am going to be investigating this further. We've had the service less than a month and its been broken a week.

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

  • I have a firefox update 27.0.1 that keeps popping up and I think its a fake and I need it removed please.

    Im running vista here. A firefox 27.0.1 update notice keeps popping up by my toolbar on bottom right side of my screen.. and goes away. Moments later a big EMPTY firefox update box appears in the middle of my screen. All it lets me do is close it, but it always comes back about 2 hours later.
    I think its an empty fake !!!
    How do I get rid of it .... please help me.

    Normally warnings are fakes but in your case I am not sure.
    Your sytem info aside is indicating you are using Firefox 21, so either you are using an out of date and unsupported version of Firefox, or something is going wrong and Firefox is not reporting the correct information.
    When you use the Firefox button and the help option you should get an option about firefox that confirms the version you are using.
    Possibly you have security software preventing updates. Have a look at these articles then please post back and confirm what version you are using.

    Well... it's not actually an iTunes or even an Apple question is it? But you can use either Shazam or Soundhound.
    If you do a search for both of them, you will find the various options available to you, which include apps for portable devices and in the case of Shazam, a work-round that allows you to use an online option using your computer's microphone on either a PC or Mac.
    There may be other services as well, but I know these two.
    I do not receive any reward (financial or otherwise) as a result of mentioning either Shazam or Soundhound.

    You must take it back to an Apple Store in the US. The warranty is not international. You cannot send it from Chile as Apple does not accept international shipments.

    If bought directly from an Apple Retail store or Apple Online store, and is still within the 14 day return period Apple Offers you can take it back and get a full refund which you can then use towards buying the other version.
    If its already past the 14 day period then you won't be able to return it for a refund no.
    If you did not buy it from an Apple Retail store or Apple Online Store you will have to consult with the store you bought it from about their return policies.
