Battery replacement and file transfers

When you're copying your files from your Ipod onto your computer, i understand that you have to open it as a portable media device and then copy each folder onto the computer. But when you look at the folders, they contain the songs in a random order. Is there anyway to organize them without doing it manually? And is there a service that will back up my files for me so that i can keep all my playlists? And is there an easier way to do this?
thanks

Chiller,
These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring playlists, ratings, playcounts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…
Don King Resurrected: Deleted files from hard drive (free user steps – music recovery only)
MacMuse: Computer Crashed (free user steps – music recovery only)
Copying music from iPod to computer (a primer on various methods and software)
Copying Songs from Your iPod to a Mac or PC (resource for 3rd party software)
iPodRip Software
PodUtil Software
Senuti (Mac OS X v10.3 or higher Recovery Utility)
XPlay (Software For Music Recovery &/or Cross-Platform Functionality)
XPlay Photo Browser (For recovering Photos)
After recovering your song files, strongly consider developing a thorough backup strategy for just this type of situation.
You need at least three sets of your music:
-- One full set on the PC within iTunes (on internal HD or ExHD)
-- One full set on an separate external backup medium (CD/DVD/ExHD/other)
-- One (full or partial) set on the iPod
Music files on just the iPod and the computer is not considered having any backup. If you cannot store your complete music files on the computer, then create and maintain two external sets.
Backup both the music files and the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). What are the iTunes Library files?
Here is a post on developing a backup strategy: http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=394618&messageID=1263275

Problem with Jabber and file transfers WAN - LAN-Users - a solution!

Hi,
I read a lot of messages about problems with file transfers between iChat-Users, if one (or both) are behind a NAT.
I had this problem to and found an easy solution:
My situation
iChat-Server behind a Netgear ProSafe FireWall. I opened the needed Ports including Port 7777 (the Port for the iChat-proxy (proxy65).
The iChat-Server is configured to host the domain "server.ourdomain.com" (as an example).
This address can be reached from the LAN and also from the WAN-side.
From the LAN-side the DNS redirects to 192.168.1.1, from the WAN this domain redirects to our official IP-address (the WAN-IP of the FireWall).
I tried nearly all kinds of mentioned solutions, but nothing helped.
The really easy solution is: I just added our official IP to the "Hosted Domains" in the iChat-section of Server-Admin.
After that change, the transfers are made via the proxy65 of iChat-Server. The transfers are shown in the log /private/var/jabberd/log/proxy65.log.
I think, that the other posters who also have this kind of problem are working in a similar setup (domain name of server is used from the LAN AND the WAN-side with different IP-addresses (LAN-IP & WAN-IP).
This solution will only work, if the WAN-IP is a fixed address.

Until the introduction of file promises in AIR Athena, it has never been possible to drag remote files out of an AIR application.
You could refer to the http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/articles/using_file_promises.html
Hope this is helpful. Please let me know if I could help more.

3rd gen battery replacement and life after

After 3 years, the battery on my 20GB 3rd Gen iPod is finally failing. I'm stuck between sending it in for battery replacement or just buying a new iPod.
For those of you who have sent in a 3rd gen for replacement--how was your experience with the replacement iPod? Did you get the same 3-4 years generally expected from the model, or did it deteriorate faster? Is it worth the $65 , or should I just suck it up and spend more on a brand new iPod?
20GB 3rd Gen iPod Windows XP

By all means replace it! The 3G is a great device if what you want to do is play music!
Yes, if you do it yourself and fail to follow the instructions by popping the right side first, you can and will rip the ribbon cale to the headphones. But that's why one should follow instructions or have a pro do it
Should you send it in to Apple for the $65 job? That's up to you. There are 3rd party folks who will do it for less or will use a better battery. I replaced my own with a higher capacity battery, and have wonderful play time. One company I've dealt with is iPodResQ. I'm not making any money from this recommendation, just voicing my approval of the quality and price of their parts and services.
Look around, google 3G iPod battery replacement, read the instructions. If you feel uncomfortable with them, then get a pro to do it.
I've has several folks want to buy my 3G from me because of its distinctive appearance. Seems it's already "retro", and therefore cool. So why ditch it because of the battery? If that's the only reason you are thinking of replacing it, then don't. Benefits of the 3G include the fact that Dynamic playlists still work on them, unlike newer models that traded that function for the benefit of podcasting. That alone is enough for me to keep mine.
For the record, I own a 15GB 3G that is my go everywhere workhorse, and a 40GB 4G that goes with me on trips with most of my library. I like the 3G more.

IPod 4 only working when conected to mains after battery replacment and stuck in recovery mode when conected to power

HI,
i have replaced the screen and battery on my iPod 4 i then tested it and it was working so i sealed it closed. (still working after sealed) (when new batterys are installed it is normally reccomended that you give them a full battery cycle for optium battery life), so i let it die. after this i put it on charge and the lightening bolt sign for charging came on, i left it for a full day and no change in battery life and when disconected it died so i plugged it into the pc and this continued so i reset it a few times then it decided to loop the apple sign when conected to power. i put it into dfu mode (the only time the pc reconises it) and went to restore it and it came up error 21 (i think) and now is stuck in recovery mode and dies when disconected from power. Lots of probs
any help would be apreacheated. thanks

Take it to somebody with more experience fixing iPods.

Can i get my battery replaced and screen replaced in one trip?

i have a ipod 4th gen that has a broken screen, a bad battery, and the headphone jack is messed up is there any possible way to get these all fixed with out spending a fortune?

Yes you can. With all that's wrong you'd be better off replacing it with a refurbished iPod cost is about 1/2 new. Contact Apple Genius Bar set up an appointment. Good luck.

ITunes / iPod locking up when during music and file transfers!

I'm having this problem with all 3 iPods in my household, but all on the same machine (20" iMac G5).
Quite often, when hooking up my iPod to transfer songs, or graphics files the whole thing just locks up. My "do not disconnect" screen freezes, and in iTunes I just get the spinning ball FOREVER. iTunes WILL NOT force quit, nor will it eject my iPod. Most of the time I have to force my computer to shut down because it will not do anything else.
I have no idea if it is my machine, or the iPods, or iTunes. I've checked and repaired permissions, and I've also run Tech Tool Pro. Nothing seems to resolve this issue.
Please... can anyone help?

I have a smiliar problem. Sometimes my iPod just gets "stuck" on the upload of certain songs (always different songs). It will just stay uploading the same song forever! so I have to unplug my iPod (even though it says "do not disconnect") and force quit iTunes. A few times I have had to force a shut down of my computer and twice when I did that all of my Favorite on FireFox dissapeared, my desktop was the default blue, my tool bar was defalut and my iTunes library was missing! I got all the songs back, but had to spend HOURS re-doing all of the playlists and then re-uploading everthiing to my iPod.
I avoided this the latest time by only uploading one playlist at a time, but it was very time consuming and still got "stuck" twice!
Any suggestions?? I have the extended protection plan on my computer and ipod...

Are LR 5.3 catalogs and files transferred to LR CC?

I have LR 5.3 installed. I have just subscxribed to the CC. Should I download the LR CC? And if I do will it clash with the installed LR 5.3? Will the LR 5.3 catalogs, preferences, and settings be preserved in LR CC?
Thank you

Thank you
In my case, the answer was "yes" - it preserved everything. When you install any version of LR5, if there is a previous version then the new one takes over the settings, catalog, presets, preferences etc - but replaces the software itself. The CC installer also sets the licence to the CC licence.
Lightroom CC v 5.3 is, I think, exactly the same as the perpetual-licence Lightroom 5.3. The only difference I could see is that when I go to Help menu, Lightroom Registration, Licence - I see a different licence number to the one for my perpetual-licence version.

Wireless tethered shooting and file transfers

Does Lightroom support tethered shooting via the many wireless adaptors such as the Nikon wu-1b? Also can it pull files from the camera through the wireless adaptor? Side question do any of the Adobe mobile apps support tethered shooting? The native Nikon app is severely lacking... Camranger look compeling but that router attachement is a handful.

"Can I be able to transfer digital photos, art files, data,etc. among 4 Macs 1 Dell computers wirelessly via airport connection?"
Yes.
"Also, is it in the Airport software where I enable security settings for multiple computers so no outsiders can log into my airport?"
Yes, you will need to use either the AirPort Utility or the older AirPort Admin Utility / AirPort Setup Assistant, to set up wireless encryption on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX).

Bring my MBP in for battery replacement comes back with broken display

So I took my late 2011 15" MBP in for a warranty covered battery replacement and when I returned to pick it up they told me that the display does not work. Never had an issue with the display and worked fine when I brought in an opened it up for them to inspect it cosmetically. They tell me it will be 500 dollars to repair this and theres nothing I can do about it. They offered to let me pay for half of the repair. But still, does this not seem right? You dont drive your car in for an oil change and come back to find 4 flat tires you are $500 on the hook for.

May be some sort of electronic short also took out the display along with the battery, if there was obvious physical damage they would have caught it at the get go.
If you don't have AppleCare, a 3 year old machine facing high repair costs, I would suggest you don't spend another dime on it and either buy a new one or a cheaper Windows laptop if your rough on hardware.
My Early 2011 is still like brand new, because I'm very careful with it.
This will assist in getting your data off the dead machine.

Problems with encoding and files

Hi friends pls some help my problems is the following
I have a ftp server running on linux and in my program I download files from the ftp server using class specified below.When I download the file content not all content is coming ok. For example I have a string with
Ra�l��1234%#=?[a_@ and when I read content using my methods this part is retirved ok Ra and this one is retrived wrong ��
whith characteres very stranges.
I suppose that the problem is with the encoding, then all day I tried some settings in the class new InputStreamReader.First the encoding UTF-8 because I have created the file using this encoding. Something like this:
in = new InputStreamReader(new GZIPInputStream(localFtp.get(serverFile)),"UTF-8");
but does not work
After I realized that I use the statement localFtp.ascii();
declaring that the content will be downloaded in ascii encoding so
I made this change :
in = new InputStreamReader(new GZIPInputStream(localFtp.get(serverFile)),"US-ASCII");
but still does not work
Please somebody can help me this is very urgent
Here is my code

What is the stores with IPhone battery replacement in South Africa?

Hi there, I sent my Apple phone in to have the battery replaced and was told I must buy a refurbished phone at the cost of R1695.00 as the battery cannot be replaced by anyone in South Africa. Is this true?

Battery Replacement Service
If your iPhone requires service due to the battery’s diminished ability to hold an electrical charge and it is not covered under Apple's warranty or statutory consumer rights, please contact your carrier.

Battery replacement out side USA

I bought t my laptop from USA after 3 months I return back home (Bahrain)
I am in Bahrain now and I checked Toshiba web site I found the advice to replace battery
So I contact the authorized dealer in Bahrain and I get the information that the dealer will not give any support in battery replacement and I don't know if this statement is right or no
Please give advice on that matter

If you are writing about Toshiba battery replacement program I think it can be done in country of purchase only.
Is the battery OK? I mean if everything is OK there is no reason for panic.
