Back out 9 and got my CD burner working again

After going through all the threads and not seeming to get anywhere, I finally got things working again. I had installed 9 and, of course, as with many of you, the CD burning stopped. I tried deinstalling, reinstalling, updating GEAR, etc, etc but no luck.
Finally, I did this (all based on a lot of different recommendations)...
I located the 8.2 download of iTunes using a Google search. I downloaded the installation routine to my hard drive but did not install it yet.
I deinstalled iTunes 9.01 and rebooted.
I did the cleanup of GEAR using this as a guide... http://www.gearsoftware.com/wiki/index.php?title=DRIVERS:Windows_-_Updating%2C_removing%2C_64_bit_versions%2C_etc#Manual_Removal_.E2.80.9 332-bit rebooting each time it said to.
I installed 8.2 and used a previous but very current .itf file to load my library (press the shift key when starting iTunes and hold it down until you get prompted to select or create a new library).
I did this and my first tests didn't burn anything. I realized I was reusing CD's that I have tried to burn to but that hadn't seemed to work. Evidently something was on them because when I used a fresh one today, it worked.
One thing... currently I have 8x selected as the speed of burning based on an earlier recommendation. I don't know if I need to have that selected of the 'max speed'. I'll test that next time I need to burn a CD.
Good luck!
Dave

I tried to burn another CD today. I reset the speed to 'Max possible' and it did not work. I changed it back to 8x, used another CD and this time it worked.
At least I can reliably burn CD's again.

    OK. T-Mobile is NOT owned by AT&T... yet... The deal hasn't gone through yet. T-Mobie's US network is not compatible with the iPhone. Lots of things don't work right. There is not, and never has been an unlocked 3G sold in the US. Don't know where the phone originated, but more than likely it was in the US. If that's the case, the phone has been hacked/jailbroken to get it to work.
    Have you tried doing a restore or restoring the phone as new? I have to warn you, if you do so and the phone is hacked/jailbroken, it will re-lock to AT&T and will become unusalbe.  I think your best bet right now might be to save yourself a lot of grief and just upgrade to new phone from a legitimate source.
    I would never even consider buying an iPhone on ebay. 99% or more are hacked, jailbroken and/or stolen.

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

So can anyone help me :/ idk whats wrong woth this ps I have the 5

    Hello Neygotsole,
    Having your device malfunction can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is experiencing multiple issues. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

  • Anyone figure out how to get Powershot G2 to work again after update to 1.5

    All my raw files from my Powershot G2 are now "Unsupported" since the update. Has anyone figured out how to update the program to allow support for that camera again? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

    You can get the old hack for the Canon Powershot G2 RAW support to work again on 10.4.8 and Aperture 1.5, and you do NOT need to revert back to the old 10.4.7 IO Frameworks file. The solution is to download the new 2006-01 RAW Camera Support update from Apple's web site. Here is the link version for PPC machines (which is what I have):
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawsupportupdateppc.html
    There his also a Universal version on Apples site (but I have not tried this version):
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawsupportupdateuniversal.ht ml
    After you install this update, it will place a new copy of the RAW.plist file in the usual place:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ImageIO.fram ework/Versions/Current/Resources/Raw.plist
    Edit this file with the old hack, making sure to add the "<!-- 10.4.0 -->" to the 1st line and save it back. A few notes on this:
    1) I'm not sure whether the "<!-- 10.4.0 -->" is needed, but similar items appear in all other cameras now, so no harm in adding it.
    2) To place the editted version back in the library, I had to 1st move the old RAW.plist file to the trash, then copied the editted version to the library. I then restarted to allow me to delete the version in the trash (otherwise the system thinks it is still in use).
    3) To be safe, I also did a repair permisssions (which did repair the permissions of the new RAW.plist file).
    After this, I was able to open Powershot G2 RAW files in Aperture and PReview (have not tried iPhoto, but is shoudl also work there).
    Here is the hacked code for the Canon G2 camera.

  • My final cut pro 6, is missing some files. because of mac keeper. I think its atom strand.HD. what to do, and how to make it work again?????

    I got mac keeper to clean up some files, and now I cant open Final cut pro 6. because of missing files. it is loading, at Atom strand.HD file, before it says that the program suddenly shutted down. the atom strand.HD is a file, that is connected to motion. if I put motion in the garbage can, then final cut works, but if I take motion out of the garbage can again, then it doesn`t. arrrrr. shall I re install final cut or motion. or is there a better way to make it work, again????? !!!!

    Well, best bet would be to reinstall FCP.  I'd use the FCS REMOVER from digitalrebellion.com (free) to uninstall the app first, then reinstall from the DVD.

  • How do I uninstall Firefox update and make my Norton toolbar work again?

    Norton has all of my passwords saved in the toolbar, and now I can access any of them! How do I uninstall Firefox 17 and get back to 16 so that my toolbar works again? (I already ran the Norton Live Update and it did not fix the problem.)

    I already ran the Norton Live update and restarted with no success. I have Norton Security Suite, not Norton 360. The only way I have been able to make this work in the past is to stay 2 or 3 versions behind on Firefox.

  • It will sometimes work, and then after I shut it down, and then it does not work again. It says it is the proxy server.

    The proxy server is refusing connections
    Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
    It worked this morning, and now it is not working. It keeps doing this me. It will work, and then when I go to get on it again, it no longer works.
    * Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
    * Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
    working.

    Thank you, so much! That worked!!! I appreciate your help.

  • Mail notifications stop working and require a reboot to work again.

    Why do my mail notifications stop showing up on my iPhone 4s after a day or two? It usually works again after a reboot but then stops working again after a day or two? Very annoying. I have an iPad 2 as well, which is running iOS5 (like my iPhone 4s) and I don't have this notification problem like I do on my iPhone 4s. My mail is a converted MobileMe mail account that is now an iCloud account. Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Thanks for your reply! Mail notifications are turned on and I have it set to show the last 10 notifcations, I am using the banner and alert sounds.
    Like I said, it works but then after "a while" it stops working until I do a reboot... It is very consistent in this pattern.
    Also, I use the Twitter App (official one) and I have never gotten a notification even though I have Notifications turned on for Twitter too.
    Thanks,

  • TS2634 I bought a ipad back in December and the ear buds never worked.  The sound doesnt come out of what you put in your ear but comes out of the little hole on the outside of the ear buds.  Is this supposed to be this way?

    The earbuds that came with my ipad have never worked.  They have sound that comes out of the outside hole of the earbuds.  When you put them in your ears no sound can be heard.  Has this been a problem or did mine just come broken?

    I have the same problem and it has just started in the last day or so...
    Got the phone late July and then in the last day, everytime I plug into PC or take a photo,  I get the same "Disk Error / Retry message"
    What is interesting is that I always had the Photo Storage location as the Memory Card (detachable).   Seems odd that sometime in the last month or so the phone decided to change my setting to the Mass Memory. Might have been an firmware update that I have done in the past but not sure.
    Changing the Photo Storage Location back to the Memory Card has stopped the error coming up everytime a Photo wastaken, but the message continues when I plug in the phone to the PC.
    Phone was just updated to latest firmware this morning and that has not helped, although during the back-up process I could not save some files from the Mass Memory.
    I wonder if Optus will shout a new phone because their technicians are useless with past experiences and to be honest the N97 really promises so much but offers very little compared to all of my last Nokia's.
