    As given, removing from the library causes the songs to be removed during sync. So the space taken up is neccessary... What would you do if your iPhone where lost, stolen, damaged or needed to be restored?
    If you ned more room for storage buy a bigger drive. In fact buy two, one to use as a backup for your library and all your other important files.

  • Colour values for text keep changing, how can I stop this?

    Hi, I am using a bright blue/turquoise text against a dark purple background. For some reason with some of the text "clips" the values keep changing to something else after I click OK? Why is this and how do I stop it from doing it? It seems not to happen with other ones I have done, with same values on same sequence.

    Sorry Tom, it's the most basic options; the "Text" video generator from the "Text" drop down menu in Effects, and then the "Colour Solid" video generator under "Matte" in Effects. I'm using DV-PAL at 25fps. To set the background solid colour, I originally colour picked from a logo supplied by client, and then noted down the values from the HSB sliders. I practically did the same with the text colour except I picked the colour from the colour wheel first and played with the sliders until it looked right on the background. I am using these colours for both "black screen" with text and for bottom corner third (style, not generator) name boxes. The difference between the two is that the name boxes have an opacity of 82% whereas the "black screen" versions have an opacity of 100%. Although there has been some change to the values of the background colour for the "black screen" versions (which I actually prefer), I am able to get these to stay uniformly now, the text however is at the original values for the original clips and then changes with the later ones I've done even though background values are ok. Whereas the values for the name boxes have changed with both the background and text on the last two. Sorry, hope that is enough detail but not too much : )

  • Firefox freezes due to a script running. how can I stop it or fix it

    I keep having a script run when I am playing Face Book games Especially Battle Pirates and it freezes everything. What can i do to stop it? Or fix it so it dosen't freeze my game?
    This script runs over and over while I am playing Battle Pirates. Every time it runs it freezes the darn game and I have to click and click on the screen before a box pops up with a long string and asks if I want to stop the string. This is what it says:
    "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."
    " Script:http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/...tS5XVSwP/ks:42 "
    What is this and dose it need to run or is it a hacker messing with me and my FF browser ?
    When I'm in the middle of a battle screen and it freezes it messes me up. If I am in full screen when it freezes it throws me to another open Browser tab or out of full screen if i don't have another open.
    What is this? Something to do with FaceBook? A Hacker ? A BP game glitch. please help. This is driving me crazy. Imagine being in the middle of the best part of a BP battle and freeze.... then click click click i go and zoom to another open window away from the battle so i no longer have a view of the fight let alone control it or boom to non full screen and 1/2 the screen is obscured.
    It just happened again while I was typing this request for help. I have a window open with BP also and it took me there. HELP

    Hi knighterrant56,
    Have you looked at the Knowledge Base article [[Problems using Facebook in Firefox]]? There is a lot of good troubleshooting information in there. Please be sure to try all of the suggested steps. Each one is valuable and may be the answer to your issue.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How can I stop Firefox from opening (to "File Not Found") when opening my Opera browser?

    Ever since I installed Opera 10.61 on my new computer (Windows 7 Ultimate operating system), whenever I open Opera, Firefox opens one second later with the following error message:
    '''File not found '''
    Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Users/Nasheed/AppData/Local/Opera/Opera/temporary_downloads/client-en.xml.
    * Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
    * Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
    TRY AGAIN.
    <nowiki>****************************************************</nowiki><br />
    This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE OPERA BROWSER. How can I stop this from happening? I'm stumped.
    [EXTRA INFO - I was unable to enable Firefox to access my previous profile on the new computer (despite putting the old profile in the appropriate Mozilla Firefox folder. So, there are now two profiles in that location.
    After reading the answer to another forum member's question, I attempted to resolve the problem using Profile Manager, but I was unable to locate the Profile Manager. The Windows "Search" feature is not enabled on my new computer (nor can it be enabled from the Customize Start Menu options).]

    Thank you for your response, Cor-el.
    I had Opera set as my default browser since this began happening. I changed my default browser back to Firefox mainly because having Firefox open one or two seconds every time I open Opera was/is such a nuisance.
    I believe this problem began because I attempted to manually transfer the files from my old computer to the new one (via the backed up files in my external drive). I was unfamiliar with Windows 7 when I did this. Microsoft changed the file set up from what I had been used to in Windows XP. I used XP for six years before being exposed to Windows 7 (I never had Vista).
    I'm almost sure this problem has something to do with where I placed the application data when I was trying to reestablish the program set up on the new computer.

    Did you try to reboot the iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • How can i stop iTunes 7 for Windows from opening automatically whenever I browse my Music Folder in Windows?

    Whenever I'm browsing through my files on my PC, if I open the iTunes folder inside my music folder, iTunes automatically launches.  If I close iTunes without browsing away from this folder, it simply re-opens itself.
    edit:  I have no Apple devices currently connected to the computer and WiFi Sync is disabled.

    How do I disable itunes on my iphone 4s?
    iTunes app on the iPhone is for purchasing music.
    The fact the iPhone starts playing when connected to your car stereo is a function of your car bluetooth system.
    Consult your car dealer/bluetooth system manual.
    I have attempted to delete all music from the device (so there would be nothing to play), but 1 song remains in the iphone memory and I have been unable to delete that song.
    Connect the iPhone to computer and select it in iTunes.
    Click the Music tab and uncheck Sync music.
    Then click Apply at lower right of iTunes.

    Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue.... 
    so yes,  the solution was to  each log  into the mac separately.
    i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id)   - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
    but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -

    Have you previously synced photos to your iPad ? If so try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    A couple of different approached:
    Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
    Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

  • How can I stop Facebook renaming my contacts?

    I have a Mac running Mountain Lion, an iPhone 4 running iOS 6 and an original iPad running iOS 5.
    iOS 6 and Mountain Lion brought Facebook integration, which among other things, lets me link the Facebook information of my contacts, with the iCloud entry I already have for them. Nice touch, I thought.
    I have done this linking for most of the entries on my iPhone and it is nice and neat now. In each case I can choose which name to use for the unified card, and in all cases I have chosen the iCloud entry as the name, because some of my contacts have 'comedy' names for themselves on Facebook and I want to control how I name them on my phone.
    All is well, but these contacts peridoically rename themselves back to the Facebook entry name, and I have to manually reset it. It stays like that for a while and then again, all of a sudden it changes back. I'm not totally sure but it could be an iTunes sync which is resetting the names to Facebook defaults, or maybe an iCloud thing? I'm lost because now there are so many sources to check and potential places where the wrong setting could be applied across all the devices.
    How can I stop this happening? I don't want my contacts renaming themselves in my phone list against my wishes. Why are my choices about which name to use for the unified card being overridden?
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I'm tempted to turn the bloody Facebook integration off as it seems to be a bit more trouble than it's worth. As usual, nice idea but very beta-esque...

    I have this exact same problem. One solution is having your friends change their fake aliases on Facebook to their real bloody names, but I realise this is no easy fix.

    i got a new lenovo desktop windows 8.1,installed itunes and synced my iphone 4 no problems. then i imported a cd of songs which showed up in recently added but not in main library ,therefore it did not sync to the iphone. how can i get new songs to appear in the main library and sync properly
    thanks
    john

    Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

  • I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening?

    I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening? I've had my phone over 2 years and only in the past 2 months has it started deleting notes. Now they are all deleted, but thankfully still in my email, but only on a computer.

    I guess he/she open Notes in Gmail settings. This archives (one way sync) notes in gmail account under notes label that is invisible if you are using the standard gmail setup on your iPhone. You can see it on desktop browser, Safari or gmail app in iDevice. Am I wrong?
    Sorry for bad English.
