Because of a PC problem I have lost all my music from iTunes Library. All my music is still on my Nano (1st generation). How can I safely transfer my music into my library, I don't want to risk losing it.
Because of a PC problem, I have lost the entire contents of my iTunes Library. I still have all my music on my Nano (1st generation). Is there a way of safely transferring my music from my Nano into iTunes Library. I would hate to lose it all.
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is based on you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

How can I move rentals from my Ipod back into my I tunes Library?
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer -
How can I make a weekly 'to do' list? I don't want it associated with a particular day or or time, just the week, preferably with the ability to check off or remove when done.
Thank you for the excellent reference Peddi. I had played with the OAMessageChoiceBean component yesterday, but I was able to tell from your instructions that "Picklist Display Attribute" and "Picklist Value Attribute" really are not for binding to the database EO. That was the key piece of information that had me confused.
In addition to adding the messageChoice component to the page, I needed to write some code to synchronize the picklist value with the corresponding code value, which I placed in am OAFormValueBean (hidden form field) which I could then bind to my application's database EO in the controller, running in the processFormRequest procedure:
/** Synchronize the catalog code with the selected catalog name */
protected void syncCatalogValues(OAPageContext pageContext,
OAWebBean webBean, MyApplicationAMImpl am) {
OAMessageChoiceBean mcb =
(OAMessageChoiceBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("CatalogName");
OAFormValueBean cc =
(OAFormValueBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("CatalogCode");
String catalogDescription = mcb.getText(pageContext);
if (catalogDescription != null) {
String catalogCode = am.getCatalogCode(catalogDescription);
cc.setValue(pageContext, catalogCode);
Along with a little code to get the catalogCode value from the LOVVO, that's all it took.
Thanks again. This was a great help.

How can I change the settings for being timed out (I don't want to be timed out ever)?
I am sorry but this isn't something that you can set. The system has timeouts built into the code.

Mac app store says an app is installed. It isn't. How can I force it to reload my app? I don't want to buy it again.
Hi ...
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase. -
I have purchased songs from itunes on my ipad but now they are not there anymore. How can they get them back? Dont come up in songs not on this ipad and in itunes it asks to buy again
If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option -

How can I turn off the Firefox tab before it opens. At the moment everytime I start the Internet two tabs open. I want to turn off the firefox tab before it opens.
Hi davesummers,
You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps! -
It seems that someone had access to my apple ID and password. This person logged in to my game center and changed the content of many games. As soon as i discovered, I changed my password so they won't be able to access my account again. Unfortunately it did not work because the other person still had access to my game center account and it seems to me that they need to log out in order for them not to be able to login again with the new password. but how can i get them out? or at least how can i be the only user of my apple ID using game center on my i-pad?
Thank you for your timei am also have the same thing how can i get they out from my game center ?

My iPhone is from Japan and I want to activate it here in the Philippines because I'm living here. I have lost the original SIM from Softbank and replaced it with a new SIM card from Globe. How can I use the SIM card from Globe?
You cannot. The iPhone is locked to Softbank, and only they can unlock it. Problem is that Softbank will NOT unlock the phone, as they do not offer iPhone unlocking.
Buy an iPhone in the Phillipines.
PS Before you go on a rant at Apple, be aware that Apple does NOT unlock phones and they do not set unlocking policies. The carriers (Softbank in this case) set the unlocking policy. -
There are quite a few having problems related to container.exe due to updating to 3.6.4 as I see from this forum.
I don't have video problems, never did, and sounds like if I update, it's going to start having problems..
It is possible for ff to make a patch so that we can have a user friendly and safe disable (without system code?)
I appreciate firefox very much and thank you developers for your hard work and care.
I just don't want to update until this is stable..too risky..
Thanks!

winvistAlso be aware that if you add a quiz to the project, that the drag and drop and quiz affect each other.
In a way we have been cheated into thinking that is also a learning tool for repeated attempts. With a quiz in the project it does not work.
I also tried it without the quiz. When learners now use it, the drag and drop will "hang" at times. EMBARRASING when a client phones you with a stuck learning session!!
I have spent hours with the online Adobe dudes. It some or other "buG".

How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

Now, I understand how the backup and restore the backup features function. However, if I don't want to transfer the music that I have on iTunes to my phone, how do I avoid it? How do I not transfer the music or take it out of my iPhone if it is already there? I really do not want any music on my iPhone because I have an iPod for that. Thanks. Hope someone can help.
When you connect your phone and start iTunes on the left side you will see your phone listed under devices.Click on te icon next to it that looks like a battery. Click on the music button at the top and uncheck the sync music box.
