Computer doesn't shutdown

I sometimes get this when shutting down.
/etc/rc.shutdown:line 153: 2078 Segmentation fault /sbin/poweroff -d -f -h -i
There shutdown stops and I have to kill it with the powerbutton.
It doesn't happen often but it happens.

Try:
pacman -Syy
pacman -Suu
pacman -S kernel26 kernel26-firmware
If it doesn't work, try to replace your rc.shutdown with the default one, from initscripts package.

Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?

How can I transfer the songs from a CD to iTunes if my computer doesn't have a CD drive?

I have iTunes installed in my personal computer and that's the only computer where I connect my ipod touch (5th generation) and where I have all my music. But the problem is that this personal computer doesn't have a CD drive. I was thinking about installing iTunes on another computer (that does have a CD drive) and transfering the songs from the CD here and then connect my ipod to transfer the album. But will my ipod synce in this new computer and make a security copy and delete all my previous songs (from my personal computer)? And also, will I be able to transfer the album from my ipod to the iTunes library in my personal computer? Or is there any other solution for this? Thank you.

Or is there any other solution for this?
Be careful, the method you describe will indeed delete the contents of your iPod.
Instead, after you rip your CD on the other computer, copy the resulting song files to a flash drive. Then copy them from the flash drive to your main computer, and add them to your iTunes library.

I need to know how to delete the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded it tonight and my computer doesn't have that little edit bar to work with so I can download the proper Adobe player and my internet has been screwed up ever since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I just want the old version of it back since I apparently can't download the Adobe stuff that is necessary to keep my computer safe from Hackers. It sure would have been nice to know there was an issue with the new Firefox Update BEFORE I uploaded it. I have Vista which is usually an issue with both Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run much of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

I have a macbook pro 15" Retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram yet when i try to download a HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD?

i have a macbook pro 15" retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram when i try to download an HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD? i went to the support on the apple website and looked at the specs that a computer has to meet in order to play HD movies and mine is well above them. Why can't i play the movies?

That would at least partially explain it.
These MacBook Pros drew more power than the power brick could readily supply, and so would only run at top speed when the power brick was supplemented by the battery.
Though the applicable tech note has been removed, it stated:
"If the battery is removed from a MacBook or MacBook Pro, the computer will automatically reduce the processor speed. This prevents the computer from shutting down if it demands more power than the A/C adapter alone can provide."

I tried updating to iOS 5 and now my computer doesn't recognize my iPhone 4.

When I plug the phone in, my computer doesn't even see that there is something in the USB port. I know the port/cord are ok because I just synced last night (still using the old OS). Now my iPhone screen recognizes that it's plugged in but it shows the USB cord and an arrow telling me to plug into iTunes. IT IS!!! Please help. I have read through so many articles and nothing has worked so far.

Hey palmtree2001,
Lets see if we can get your iPod touch recognized and charged. Take a look at the first article to go over making sure the drivers are working properly to any third party conflicts. If you are still having issues with charging, take a look at the second article for some suggestions to get it working.

Computer doesn't recognize ipod touch

when I plug my ipod into my laptop via a usb cable, the computer doesn't see it...ie it doesn't show up in My Computer as it used to do. It seems like this began when I went to IOS 5
I followed the troubleshooting steps (except the msconfig one) that start here

they talk about itunes not recognizing the ipod touch, when I guess my problem is that the computer doesn't see it.

Did you already try to remove and reinstall all Apple related software, like explained in this article?

My Windows 8.1 computer doesn't recognize my iPod nano 7th generation. Why?

My Windows 8.1 computer doesn't recognize my iPod nano 7th generation. Why?
When I connect my iPod to my computer, nothing happens. I've read the tips in the section "support" and I noticed that maybe Windows 8 is not one of the operating systems that are compatible with an iPod nano 7th generation. If I'm right, what can I do if my only device is a Windows 8?

Hi, Grafiti.
Thank you for the question. Below, I have attached a couple troubleshooting articles that will help resolve the device not being recognized by iTunes.

Did you update to iOS 7? If yes you need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1
If you are using iTunes 11.0 and iOS 6.x then show the left sidebar in iTunes.
When in iTunes on your computer use the View menu to View Sidebar. The device should show up there when connected.

My computer doesn't see my external hard drive

Hello. I have a Power Mac G4, X10.4.6 and for a long time I've used it successfully with my hard drice - and Icecube 800 hard drive connected through a firewire cable. Now i just formated the intern hard disks and now the computer doesn't see the hard drive. The Icecube 800 doesn't require installation of any drivers and it still works perfectly on other computers. And there's nothing wrong with the ports because I can still connect my iPod. What do i do? Thank you, Sebastian.

It does. It may not call it "resetting the port", but this method is what resets the port:
"Tip: FireWire ports are keyed, which means the FireWire cable can only be inserted one way. Check that you are inserting the FireWire cable into the FireWire port in the correct orientation.
If the issue persists, try these steps:
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Disconnect all FireWire devices and all other cables, except the keyboard and mouse cable(s).
3. Disconnect the computer from the power outlet and wait for 3 to 5 minutes.
4. Plug the computer back in and turn it on.
5. Reconnect the FireWire device(s) (one at a time if there is more than one) and test. Test with each FireWire port if you have more than one."
If it isn't resetting the port properly, I think your port, cable, or controller is damaged.

I have Windows 8.1. I have had MageMaker 7.0.1 working fine on desktop for MANY years. Had to get a new hard drive. Now computer doesn't read the PM DVD. so I can't reinstall it. Can anyone help?

Sorry, but the chance of ever getting PM to work on Windows 8 is somewhere
near zero.
Buy a very old computer or move to a new application.

How do you get a cd out of the imac g5 drive if the computer doesn't know it's in there. I've tried shutting it off and holding the mouse button, but nothing works because the computer can't eject what it isn't registering to be there in the first place.

I can't get access to the cd that is probably slid past where it is supposed to go. The computer doesn't note it is in there. This happened once before and I used another cd to tap it into place, and then I could eject the cd. It's a library music cd and nothing I've done to eject it, works. The dvd drive is empty to the computer, even though I've tried to trick it by getting it to burn a cd or dvd. It says insert disc. Hope someone knows how to pop it into place or open the thing up to get access to the drive. That cd is due!

power off your machine. hold down your left mouse button. power on your machine. This should eject the cd.
Eject cd
Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.
http://www.osxfaq.com/dailytips/01-2003/01-16.ws
You indicate you are running on a g5, but 10.6 doesn't run on on a G5.
On a PowerPC-based Macintosh (but not an Intel-based Macintosh), you may use Open Firmware to eject a CD or DVD disc when normal methods for ejecting it have not succeeded.
Immediately after the startup sound, press and hold the key combination Command-Option-o-f. Enter commands:
eject cd
mac-boot
