Can't get AE to work with itunes
I would love to be able to wirelessly stream my itunes music to my stereo in another part of the house. I have a Zoom X6 wireless modem that is attached to my G4 via ethernet. Internet connectivity is no problem. But when I plug in the AE (it's only about 35 ft away) it just blinks amber. Am I missing something? I must be! I was hoping the wireless router/modem would allow me to transmit to the AE since it's connected to the mac via ethernet, in other words, I thought the wireless Modem/router would eliminate any need for an airport or for replacing my original airport card - which the computer does not see for some reason ..and which, btw, is now only availble online (since mac stopped supporting it) for about $150...
Any help will be greatly appreciated and will keep me from further pulling out my remaining hair .
imac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4) 800MHz, 512 MB RAM, iTunes 6.0.2, Zoom X6 DSL modem
imac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)
imac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)
It needs to be restored not reset.

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?
1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

Finally able to reset ipod, now I can't get it to work with itunes
I would appreciate any assistance, as I am growing very frustrated.
Friday night I was conducting a routine manual sync of my ipod. Everything was routine until I hit the disconnect button in itunes. My ipod disappeared from itunes device section, but "do not disconnect" stayed on the ipod's screen. I have had this problem before, and fixed it by resetting the ipod, so I tried that. The ipod would not reboot- I could hear noises as if the hard drive was spinning up, then the drive would stop. Then it would spin up again...etc. It did this over and over again, never even getting as far as the apple logo. I was able to put it into diagnostic mode but wasn't able to figure out anything helpful. Later that evening, I tried again to get the ipod to reset, and this time it got as far as the logo and stayed there.
I plugged the ipod into an outlet and let it charge overnight, and discovered that the next morning it had evidently reset to factory settings- all my content was gone, and the ipod asked me to select my language on startup, but it was again booting normally. However, when I hooked it back up to my computer via usb cable, I had problems again. Windows asked if I wanted to reformat the drive and I said no. Itunes refused to recognize that I had plugged the ipod in, even though windows clearly had and the ipod had the "do not disconnect" symbol up. I tried resetting the ipod and the computer. This time, itunes recognized that I had connected the ipod and asked if I wanted to reformat it. I said yes but itunes quickly froze and would not allow me to close it or end the process via task manager. I had to reboot to get itunes working again.
This is the situation I'm in now. Windows clearly recognizes the ipod- it shows as working in device manager and windows always asks if it should reformat when I plug it in (I tried saying yes once, but that didn't do anything). When I tried to select the ipod in windows explorer, explorer froze. When I open itunes after the ipod has been plugged in, or plug the ipod in while itunes is running, itunes refuses to recognize the ipod and freezes completely; task manager cannot end the process and the only way to restart itunes is by rebooting the computer. Trying to disconnect the ipod via windows' 'safely removal hardware' utility causes the utility to freeze and does not affect the ipod. The only way to get the ipod to stop displaying "do not disconnect" is to reset it, which again causes the ipod to (slowly) reboot and ask me to select a language.
I have tried reinstalling itunes. (It's 9.0.3 now.) I've tried switching usb cables. I've tried switching usb ports. I have tried to put the ipod in diagnostic mode, and I've tried putting it in disk mode- I'm not able to do either. I've been through all the relevant apple support pages I could find and I'm still unable to even diagnose exactly what the problem is, much less how to fix it. It seems more likely than not that the problem is the ipod itself rather than itunes, given my problems Friday night, but I have no way of knowing for sure.
The ipod is a 5g, 30gb, that I purchased new in December of 2006. I am running itunes 9.0.3 on windows vista home premium. Let me know if more details of my hardware/software are needed.
Thanks,
LindsayYou're not alone. I am having similar problems with my Ipod 5th gen 30gb.
When I connect it to my laptop (Vista - basic) it is not recognised by itunes. Itunes simply locks up.
So far I have tried the following to no avail:
Checked my pc's device manager - it recognises the device and says it is functioning properly.
Checked the drivers to make sure they are upt to date.
Uninstalled & reinstalled a previous version of itunes (as it worked fine before the latest release).
Reinstalled the latest itunes.
Reset the ipod.
Put the ipod into disk mode and reconnected to itunes.
Have tried to use the windows tool to scan and fix any bad sectors but it fails to complete a scan without locking that up as well.
Placed into disk mode when fully charged and then allowed the battery to drain completely. Then reconnected ipod (in disk mode)and it still is not recognised and locks up itunes.
At this point I dont really want to part with another $300 odd dollars for a new one. -
How can I get paypal to work with itunes?
I am having a problem with Paypal in general. I was thrilled when I saw that Paypal was a choice. So, I choose it for a payment option, verified all information and set up my preapproved payment account. For awhile everything was great. I bought music and podcasts with no problem. Then after trying to buy a song one day I was given a message that my account information has changed. I updated all my information (which I never changed in the first place) and that's when the problems started. I verifed all information with Paypal as well but when I click "Return to Merchant", I am directed to the apple website's itunes download page. I have already downloaded the latest version of itunes thinking MAYBE I needed to update. But still, no verification on the side of itunes that my account is active. Everytime I try to buy a song I am directed back to the page in itunes that I need to verify my paypal account. My account is active in paypal, but still I can't buy songs. I have verified my account information, I don't know how many times now in the past few days. I have emailed Apple support with my problem and have heard nothing back from them. I have been doing searches in discussions and have seen that paypal may not be the best choice for payment per so many problems customers are having. I feel I have no choice but to switch to a credit card if I want to buy anything in itunes. I think that if you offer a choice like paypal then it should be crediable. Apple really needs to take this choice away or fix it, and stop misleading customers into problems like this. It is really fustrating.
Oh yeah, once I actually got into my account information and re-entered all my info (once again!?) and then I am given an error message "Form not complete....enter country". This confuses me to NO END. My country (USA) is clearly stated in the form. I mean, you have no way to change it, it's already there! ?*&#@! So, I click "Done" but itunes will not accept it. I get the same "enter country" error over and over. I have changed browsers(from IE to Mozilla and back again) and tried countless advice I have found while searching in Discussions to no avail. I have updated my information until my fingers are sore. I have verified my paypal account so many time that my email is full of confirmations from Paypal. I cannot understand why this is happening or how to fix it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Old ipod, can not get it to connect with itunes & i no longer have the computer it was once synced to. It will not allow me to do anything but turn it off & on.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -

Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent. This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account. Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?
You have to look at the email protocol being used. the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider. -
How can I get Lion to work with label printer- Brother QL 570 or Dymo 450 Turbo?
I can't get Lion to work with label printers, either Brother QL 570 or Dymo Turbo 450. I want to uninstall Lion and use Snow Leopard unless there is a way to make Lion work with these devices. Any ideas?
Dymo has released new drivers since Lion came out. Have you downloaded and
installed them from the Dymo website?
Some people have said that their Dymo label printers were set to off line by Lion, but
worked fine after going to Print & Scan, selecting the Dymo printer, and making sure
it was active/on-line. I had to do that with my Dymo 450 Label Writer.
I cannot offer any tips about Brother, but you may wish to check their website
for latest drivers. -
My printer is a fairly new all-in-one Brother MFC-7860 DW. It is not listed in the iPad AirPrint printers. Can I get it to work with my new iPad2?
If it's not an Airprint enabled printer, you can not natively through your iPad. BUT, there are apps you can purchase in the App Store, like Print Central ($9), which is what I use myself and works well for my needs.

I need help with ISIGHT! I can't get it to work with MSN!
HI,
My issue is this... I have AIM/AOL and I am able to see myself on webcam.. however noone else can unless they HAVE a webcam... My first question is- "DO you have to have a WEBCAM on both ends for both people to see you?" Does the person I am chatting with HAVE to have a webcam to see me? If so WHY? They should atleast be able to see ME if I want them to... Also if they are using windows for PC platform... can they use a pc webcam and still connect with me through my isight although I am on a mac?
My second major ISSUE is.. WHY is the isight only compatible with AOL/AIM? I was told when I bought this it would be compatible with MSN Messenger for windows AND the MAC version... I have both and the isight does not show up on it... CAN ISIGHT be connected to msn messenger for MAC??? PLEASE help me!
I called APPLE tech support and they couldn't even help me! They told me to call Microsoft! Anyhow- one guy did say he was able to get his ISIGHT working with the MSN messenger for MAC platform.. do you have ANY idea how to do that?? The thing is ALL my freinds are on PC's and have MSN messenger..
ALSO- someone on mac rumors told me to look for a guy names RALPH! Said you know A LOT about mac and pc compatibility! PLEASE HELP
Bottom line - I want to use isight with msn so my msn pc friends can share webcam... I also have virtual pc software... is it easier to just get a pc webcam and do it through there? ( i tried that and it didn't work either) i need major TECH SUPPORT!
THANK YOUMicrosoft's Messenger for Mac (MSN) does not support webcams at all.
I have found the best alternative to MSN to be aMSN with macam for the webcam driver (it is a cheap usb webcam). Both are free open source projects. I guess if you use an iSight you will not need macam.
aMSN can be found here: http://amsn.sourceforge.net/
macam can be found here: http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/
The speed is substantially faster and it is far more stable than Mercury in my experience.
The only difficulty is the camera is often shown as being "in use by another application". To counter this I start macam, then plug in the camera (or unplug and plug back in). Then I start aMSN.
