Can't update iPod, please help!!!
Normally when you click on "file" in iTunes, one option is "update iPod" but it is pale (can't select it). I can't update it so please reply if you can help!!
Also, yesterday it wouldn't let me disconnect/eject the iPod, and also every now and again a message saying something about a "corrupt file" comes up.
If you can help me with any of these things. PARTICULARLY the updating one then please reply ASAP!!
thanks!

Try this link put. It has some good basic information on how to update your ipod. Try to manually update your ipod, the instructions for it are in there. When you are talking about the smart list i think you are refering to the smart playlist. What you can do is set a playlist that has different options that will automatically update the playlist. Say for instance everything that you rate as five stars you can make a playlist that will take all of the songs that have five stars and put it on that playlist without you having to do anything.
Now about the issue of the do not disconnect. I had the same issue with mine when I had first got my ipod. If you look in itunes at the very top in the little dropdown menus there will be one called preferences. Now with your ipod connected click on the ipod tab. There should be an option in there that will let you listen to music etc while it is charging on the computer. The default setting for when it is hooked up to a computer is to not play music or anything until it is unplugged.
I hope that will take care of your questions, if not let me know and i'll see what i can find for you and if it did work if you don't mind let me know.

Hi,
When trying to update Adobe Extension Manager CS6.0.0 to 6.0.2 I get this error:
Adobe Extension Manager CS6 Update
There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M2I218
I can not run the recent CS6 Update successfully, I get the U44M2I218 for all the apps, even when I deselect Adobe Extension Manager and only update the other apps.
I tried doing the below suggested steps but this didn't fix the issue:
In the Applications folder locate the Extension Manager CS6 folder and open.
Trash the Adobe Extension Manager CS6.
Download a fresh copy of the Adobe Extension Manager CS6 fromhttp://download.macromedia.com/pub/dw_exchange/extension_manager/mac/A dobeExtensionManager6.0All.dmg
Install Extension Manager
Download the 6.0.2 update fromhttp://download.macromedia.com/pub/dw_exchange/extension_manager/mac/A dobeExtensionManager-6.0.2-mul-AdobeUpdate.dmg
Install Update
Open Adobe Application Manager (via any Adobe program "Update..." in its "Help" pull-down.
Check for Updates and 6.0.4 should be available. Install.
I'm trying this on a Mac running 10.6.8
Does anyone have any tips?
Thanks!Hi DJ,
Can you enable the update log with the steps below and try update to 6.0.2 again. Then, you can get the log file. Please post the content here. Thanks.
1. Open a Terminal window.
2. Run command: cd /tmp
3. Run command: touch ribs3debug
4. After that a new file named "ribs3debug" should have been created in /tmp folder.
5. Update Extension Manager CS6, via Adobe Application Manager or running updater installer manually.
6. The new log file "/Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers/Adobe Extension Manager CS6 xxxx.log.gz" will be created( check the create date of the file and make sure it is the log of your patch installation ).

Trouble Updating iPod, Please Help
Every time I try to update my iPod (nano), I get the message:
"Songs on the iPod "Owners iPod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist."
Does anyone know what this means? I've tried to reinstall iTunes, and pretty much any thing else the website reccomends. If you know what to do, I'd really apperciate your help. Just as a note (not sure if it matters) all my generic playlists, like Top 25 Most Played or Top 25 Rated were erased. Also, I have no songs under the "Owners iPod" list anymore. All my songs are listed only under "Library". I tried to transfer the songs to the "Owners iPod" list, but it wouldn't let me.
ThanksHave a look at this previous post and see if it helps: "iPod cannot sync because one or more playlist does not exist" http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=607312

Created new site, now can't update.. please help!
I created my new site in IWeb 08 after the upgrade. My old site stayed in IWeb until I was done replicating it. I did pull the blog from the old site to the new site so I wouldn't lose my entries.
Everything looks great in IWeb. However when I publish it goes through the creating pages stuff and finishes. But instead of telling me go visit my page, it tells me my .mac membership expires in 2 weeks and ask if I want to renew. It's set to automatic renewel so I'm not going to renew it again.
The funny thing is. Prior to me adding my videos and photos in I could publish fine. I actually see the first part of what I published fine. Just can't publish anymore. I noticed that after I do publish I have to restart IWeb before I can publish again because it won't recognize that the files have changed.
Could this be because I have too many photos / videos? Is this what it would do. I have about 7 qt 1-2 minute videos, and one 19 minute qt video. Then I have about 200 photos.
I have the minimum .mac storage account. 5 GB i think? I didn't cross that i doubt.
Thanks!As an update. Now I publish it and it's going through the motions... I just never get the confirmation that it was published. But all my pages turn blue to indicate they have been... Only they really wern't updated. I close IWeb and come back and they are all red. I repeat the upload process... file, upload all to .mac... logging in... creating page x...y...z... dissapears. Pages turned blue, nothing is update.

My iPod Touch 4th generation just won't download apps. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help!
Hi, when you say you have tried everything... I presume you have gone into Settings > Store and logged out and back in with your account details?
You could try purchasing an app via iTunes to see if its an issue with the device or the account you're using.
Hope this helps. -
Hello! I was on my Mac and then I clicked on iTunes. Then I clicked on Account, and accidentally removed my device from my Mac, how can I get it back? Also when I plug my iPod into the computer, it downloads everything that is on my computer, how can I stop this. please help! please help!!!!!!thank you
Is the iPod still singed into the account isn Settings>iTunes and App Stores and SettingsZ>iCloudl? If it is then I would not be concerned.

Battery running down fast using Yosemite, running the latest update 10.10.2. I think there is bug in this update. Please help me out or is there a way can i switch back to mavericks and how
1. Check the cycle count of the battery against the rated life for your model. The battery may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.8 or earlier.
3. In the Energy Saver preference pane, uncheck the box marked
Enable Power Nap while on battery power
if it's shown (it may not be.)
4. You can also try resetting the SMC.
5. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
6. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center. -

you have 2 ipods, please help
Hi, I have just bought another ipod, I have now a 60GB video ipod and a new 8GB ipod. Does it pose any problem when synchronising ? Can they have different names ? ThksYou can name your iPod whatever you like. If you are connecting a second iPod for your own use, just connect it to your computer and it will update from your existing library. Depending on the size of your library and the type of iPod you choose you can have it update the whole library, selected playlists or you can manage it manually.
When using a small capacity iPod like the Nano with a large library, you can choose the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" (called Sync Music - All songs and Playlists in iTunes 7). This would allow you to create a playlist specifically for your Nano and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod Nano (around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB). You can read more about playlists at these links:
