Audible second of previous track during any kind of play.

My ipod 3G 8GB nano has been malfunctioning. On any play, before a song would start, a second or two of the previous track would play, then the regular track would begin. I have reset the ipod many times, downloaded the newest version of iTunes, and followed all other basic restart procedures, including restore. I am willing to accept any advice at this time.

ITunes 7 'previous track' glitch

Hello everyone. I've been experiencing a bit of an issue with iTunes with regards to the 'previous track' button. Oftentimes, if I press that button with a few seconds to go in the song, it'll still advance to the next track. Occasionally, when this happens, I can hear the previous track (the one I meant to go back to the beginning of) playing along with the next track! It doesn't occur every time, but is rather annoying when it does. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

(On an unrelated note: I've discovered that, on my Sawtooth G4, the Visualizer no longer runs nearly as smoothly as it did under iTunes 6.5. Also, with both Macs, I can't change the size of the visualizer from full screen, since the command codes to do such merely turn the full-screen visualizer off.)

Duplicate calendar entries - but not related to any kind of sync

I went on holiday for 3 weeks and during that time my iPod touch discharged completely. When I came back and charged it up again I saw that it had reset its date back to what I presume is the factory default of 01 January 1970. I set the date and time to the current date and time - and then discovered that all my MONTHLY and YEARLY repeating calendar entries (but not the WEEKLY ones) have all been duplicated. This is not the result of any kind of sync up since (following a complete system rebuild following a virus attack) I have not yet reinstalled iTunes on my PC and I have not knowingly synced with Outlook because I almost never use it. If I delete an entry that has been duplicated then BOTH entries are deleted. Has anyone seen this behaviour and can tell me how I can remove the duplicate entries? I have looked for posts relating to duplicate calendar entries but they all deal with syncing-related problems whereas mine is not. Thanks.

I have a similar issue. I bought an ipod touch last week and today I synced my entourage contacts, and address book. The address book entries are fine, but I have duplicates on my calendar. Now, its not duplicating per day, its duplicating the previous or next day. For instance, I have a birthday listed for today, it will also show for yesterday or tomorrow. What is causing this? I've checked the calendar on entourage and ical and both show correctly. (ical copies items from entourage)

error writing to file: C:\Program

itxib. Verify that you have access to that directory
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Failing to install windows 8.1/7/ any kind of windows on my imac,seeking help foreal

Hey there. It's going to be a long post since I've messed with it for 4 days, and still no success even in the time I'm currently writing this message - the furthest I got is having tons of crashes and black screens. And now I can't even reclaim my lost harddrive space (resizing partitions doesn't work anymore).
I'll start with that I already tried to make Bootcamp work about a year ago, but then quit it out of no success and reverted all the changes. But this time my situation is different - I'm pretty sure something messed up in the middle and now I'm seeking help and answers to my questions. And here we go - one bright day I decided to install Windows 8.1 as a secondary boot system on my iMac for personal reasons. I went and added Bootcamp's ability to make a bootable USB on my mac by changing the plist file, and finally had the option to do so. Then got an ISO of Windows 8.1's installation, burned it to a DVD with disk utility (on the lowest speed) and here's already where my problems started. The disk failed to burn for some unknown reason, even though when I compared the contents it had the exactly same thing in both the ISO and the DVD. Weird isn't it? I still tried to boot it - and guess what? the DVD booted but it had the non-EFI interface (huge and pixelated). Anyway when I pressed next I had some weird driver errors, so I decided to use an USB instead (1 DVD wasted so far). I used Bootcamp to create a bootable USB with drivers and went to boot it. The USB booted perfectly fine under the name "EFI Boot" and then I reached the partitions screen.. Obviously I had weird errors again (GPT/MBR stuff). One tutorial on the web suggested creating a partition for the windows rather than using the Bootcamp pre-made one. I followed it by booting my main system, and using disk utility to delete the Bootcamp partition. Later on I booted again to the installation and created a new partition from the partitions screen. Windows created two partitions - a Microsoft reserved partition, and the secondary partition which is used for the windows files. After some time the windows finally booted for the first time. It took pretty long but went smooth - until it finally booted. Since here the problems returned - the Windows crashed every 5 minutes from a driver error (that's AFTER I installed the Apple drivers right after the system finished booting), I googled it and followed various tuts but it still wasn't fixed. I decided to quit using 8 since I liked 7 more anyway (I currently have it installed as a virtual system in Parallels), so I decided to install 7 instead of 8 since I never had any issues with it. Booted up my main system again - went to Bootcamp Assistant, USB creation. ISO file + drivers on the USB. I reboot. Holding ALT and... my mac can't even see the USB drive! Luckily I had 4 more installations (various ISOs) of Win 7, so I decided to try them. I tried ALL the Installations I in none of them my mac could see the USB drive (I wonder how my USB survived all this rewriting on it...) Again to Google we go. I researched a bit and realized that I'm missing a file called xboot64.efi in the "efi/boot" folder, which can be taken from windows. I tried extracting it from install.wim but none of my archiving apps could open it (I tried Unarchiver, Keka, 7zX, terminal's unrar command and more, none could!). I also realized my Win 8 installation had this file so I added it to the Win 7 USB. Now my mac could see the USB in the boot screen - and it booted. I saw the "loading files" screen, and after one minute of it... black screen. I waited 10 minutes. Then 30. An hour. Still a pure black screen. I thought something is wrong with my file, and read that this file is also found in an already installed Win 7, so I went to parallels and took it from here, then added it to my installation. Again my mac could see the USB, but still no luck. When I pressed enter to boot from it, nothing happened as if the boot screen was stuck - the drive was selected but it didn't do anything. I waited long time again and decided to stop waiting. I tried to burn another DVD, this time with Titanium Toast. Again the DVD failed to burn, and when I checked the content, it was the same as the ISO I tried to burn from (official ISO from Microsoft of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1). I went and booted it - this time I saw again "Windows" and "EFI Boot"in the boot screen, both with a disc icon. "EFI Boot" didn't load like the usb previously (loads forever), so I booted the "Windows" thing. The setup loaded, and finally I could see the installation window. Reached the partitions screen... and here the problems returned once again. An error along the lines of that Windows can't be installed on a GPT partition. Some tuts on YouTube and in Google suggested to simply format the problematic partition. And so I did - yet the problem wasn't fixed. After messing with all that for one more day - trying different installations, ways to boot the USB and DVDs, formatting the Windows partition etc, I decided it's time to stop messing with it since luck definitely isn't in my side when it comes to Bootcamp (and for the record, I never had any issues with OSX, but when I tried adding windows to it.. eh, you can guess.) I booted back to my normal system, and went to disk utility to delete the partitions. The Windows partition was deleted easily, but the Microsoft reserved one.. not so quite. (by the way when I boot into it I get a Win 8.1 error screen that tells me to repair the system, since I formatted the Win partition itself). Until this very moment I still can't delete the reserved partition and return my beloved 30gb that I lost because of the resizing (I can't resize my Mac HD partition).
I'm really desperate now. I tried everything and the furthest I got is getting a broken Windows 8.1 (which I deleted later), destroying 5 DVDs, shortening the lifespan of my USB drive, and googling errors the whole day for 4 days in a row. And now I can't even return my lost 30gb even after I decided to quit it. Please help or suggest me what to do, whether it's about how to successfully install Win 7 or to return my lost gigabytes, any kind of help is appreciated. If you managed to read so far, thank you for reading my post and I hope you'll be able to assist me and get me out of this situation.

Read the Boot Camp Help first. Boot Camp does not yet support Windows 8.1 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/system-requirements. If you insist on installing 8.1 use a virtual machine like parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.

Previous Tracks on Garageband

I can't locate previous tracks when I record on Garageband. I click on the "Tracks" text but nothing happens. I used to be able to go back to previous tracks until I downloaded the new version. Any suggestions?

Shakey64 wrote:
Is it just a case of recording as a "Real Instrument" and not an "Electric Guitar"
Yes.
and if that is the case can I change a "Guitar Track" to a "Real Instrument Track"?
Has anyone got any bright ideas?

Sorry, I am not sure how to do that. I ended up just re recording my guitar parts.
All the Best.

Error when setting GPO Display information about previous logon during user logon on Wins 7

We recently try to deploy a GPO on our network (All Server 2008 and Windows 7) to show previous logons during
user logon. The setting is located in Computer Configuration| Policies |
Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Logon Options | Display
information about previous logons during user logon = Enabled. Our domain
level is set to Windows Server 2008. I verified that it is Windows Server 2008
on Domain and Trust.
Here is the article about this setting
Active Directory Domain Services: Last Interactive
Logon
But after we deploy the setting, we are no longer able to login
to any of our windows 7 machines. All of them got an error message said :
“Security policies on this computer are set to display information about the
last interactive logon. Windows could not retrieve this information. Please
contact your network administrator for assistance.”
The setting
worked on windows server 2008. I was able to login to DC and revise the setting,
so we can log back in the windows 7 machines.
Anyone has experience this
issue before? I looked up all of the web and only thing they said is to make
sure the domain functional level must be set to Windows Server 2008, which it
is.

Hi,
Have we also applied this setting to domain controllers? To make this policy work properly, we also need to apply this setting to domain controllers. If not, users will not be able to log on to the system.
Regarding this point, the following article can also be referred to for more information.

Problem with Policy "Display information about previous logons during user logon"

Hello,
I've a problem with the Policy "Setting Display information about previous logons during user logon".
It is applied correctly on computer, but I can't login anymore and message "Security policies on this computer are set to display information about the last interactive logon. Windows could not retrieve this information. Please contact your network administrator
for assistance" is appearing.
My home test domain has 2008 R2 functionality level since months, and I've raised my company infra level functionality to 2012 this morning. Both domain are making the same error.
This is non-sense, so any idea how to troubleshoot it ? Thanks in advance ! ;-)
PS : I was able to remove it in order to login again, no worries on this one...

Did you follow the guidance in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd446680%28v=ws.10%29.aspx?
Especially the following paragraph - the setting has to be applied to DCs and Members...:
You configure last interactive logon through a GPO. You must configure the following setting for the GPO with domain controllers in its scope of management if you want to report last interactive logon information to the directory service:
Computer Configuration| Policies | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Logon Options | Display information about previous logons during user logon = Enabled
If you want to display last interactive logon information to the user, you must configure this setting for both the GPO with domain controllers in its scope of management as well as any GPO with Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista client
computers in its scope of management.

Martin-
I'm struggling with the TechNet article you direct us to. We see in the TechNet article that Last Login Notification works ONLY with Server 2008 R2 and Vista. Do we interpret that correctly?
We need it to work with Server 2003, Server 2008, Win7, Win8, Win8.1, Server 2012, et. al.
What is the work around to enable *Last Login Notifications to Users* functionality for these OSs?
Thanks in advance,

PS CS3 does have any kind of LUT loader or adobegamma related daemon?

Hi!.
I have serious problems with calibration here.
White turns to maroon while going gray.
Something is going on very bad.
I have installed PS3. I´m told to remove any LUT loader or whatever photoshop installs on the system in order to leave my own profiles load.
I don´t find any kind of loader, and i´m quite worried about what´s going on with the color here.
I use equipment for photographer: 10bit NEC screen (multisync LCD3080UX+) and Matrox Parhelia 128MB graphic card. The software is Monaco Optix with BasicColor together, using a MonacoOptix XR calibration hardware.
I do everything correctly, and this goes wrong. Can you please help me or redirect me somewhere better?.
Thanks a lot. I need serious help here. Please, answer only if you know what are you talking about.

Hi there, people. I back again.
First, thanks a lot for your support here.
Second, i'm a girl, that will end up with the confusion.
The last thing is that i'm spanish so errors can't be avoided completely. I'm sorry.
Ok. let's start. I've read all the posts. There is, of course, no adobe gamma or any adobe software on the startup. I know what i'm saying, my computer level is not so bad, i must tell.
To "Lawrence", i don't get what do you mean with "defective CD or D/L". You mean what i installed is corrupted or has any problems?.
I installed it several times, and various versions. ANd i must tell it worked two years ago!.
Well. I know it's a quite difficult problem:
i use a 10bit screen from NEC as i said.
I use a Matrox Parhelia 128MB graphics card, specially built for photographers, as i investigated.
The problem came with my calibration hardware: Monaco Optix xr. It comes with a software called Monaco Optix too.
But 10bit screens were new at that time, 2 or 3 years ago, so we contacted with the germans to receive BasicColor software, adaptation for Monaco to use 10bit screens.
That's all. They told us to install firstly Monaco (don't ask me why!) and then BColor (3.1).
After that, Naviset, that intalls the controllers to use the digital controls of the screen when i calibrate.
So that's all. But it doesn't work... i wonder whos fault.
I think something is changing the profile. I have an idea: i could try to use the same profile with other system, so i can see if it works but the screen turns it bad, or whatever.
Other trial would be using another calibration HW.
Well. I wonder why i had to install MonacoOptix first. Maybe it installs some kind of color daemon to load the profile... no idea.
Do you have any clue?
Thanks a lot!

ITunes freezes when playing any kind of video

Up until a little while ago I was able to use iTunes to stream movie trailers, watch video podcasts, and watch movies saved in my library. For some reason now I am unable to.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Quicktime and iTunes, and I have even tried using older versions of both of these.
I can play videos in Quicktime OK, but not in iTunes.
The moment I hit "play", iTunes freezes. This happens with ANY kind of video (ie. podcasts, streaming, trailers, local videos, etc.)
Videos I used to once be able to play I cannot.
I have synced some of the videos to my iphone and they play fine on it, so the format is correct.
Any help would be great.

I had this same problem s a lot of others after updating to the latest I Tunes version. I finally got a decent response back from Apple, which was hard to do. Here is what they told me. Maybe it will help you:

Recently I've not been able to watch any kind of video on my iPad ie: music video, Netflix, YouTube, etc

Recently I've noticed that I'm not able to watch any kind of video on my iPad.....youtube, music videos, netflix, news videos, etc. I'll hit the play icon and then the pause button comes on and then quickly flips back to the play button. The video never starts. Everything else seems to be working fine. I'd like to know if anyone knows what causes this? Thanks.

Not sure what causes this, but see if this fixes it. Close all apps and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
