vivnelson,
I guess you have already done the obvious and wiped the disks with a clean cloth. You could try a cleaning disk for removing dirt from the drive lenses.

Itunes wont work anymore...error 7

My itunes wont work anymore on my latop, i uninstalled it and reinstalled it but when i try to get in to my itunes and error 7 message will pop up saying that it was installed incorrectly and ive installed it several times to find the same thing happening. I dont know what to do anymore so if someone could help me out i would really appreciate it a lot!!!

I got an upgrade iTunes request from Apple. And upgraded. I should never have done that. Now it says that "iTunes is not properly installed". Other strange messages are also coming up, like missing .dll files etc.
I have deleted all Apple programs. Used Revo Uninstall that also deletes registry files and left over files. I have used ByeiTunes and Registry mechanic. I have used everything that is suggested on this site:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/23959/completely-remove-itunes-and-other-apple-so ftware-from-a-windows-computer/
After doing all this, I got the same error message. So what wrong with Apple? When you have bought the product, you are left out in the dark. I have given up. Synchronizing the calendar with Outlook I can do manually, pictures that I have downloaded to my phone, I can access directly, and pictures taken by the phone I have to send to myself through e-mail. Music I never download using iTunes.
I have had enough. After this and after Apple has changed the plug that leaves me with 8 useless chargers and stands, there will be Samsung next time. I'm running Windows 7, 64 bits.
Hans (Professor of Marketingy). I wonder if Apple is reading this?

My voiceover wont work anymore it has a yellow triangle on it now

my voiceover wont work anymore it has a yellow triangle on it now can anyone help me

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
It is also completely possible that the impact has caused physical damage.
Good luck and let us know!

Volume switch on side of phone wont work anymore. HELP!

the switch on the side of my phone to change it from noise to vibrate wont work anymore. what can I do?

the switch on the side is not for changing from noise to vibrate. It is a mute switch to turn sound off. For vibrate go to settings>sounds and then look at the first two switches and chose the settings you want for them

I need these Devices because they are my only network access via the Asix USB to Ethernet Adapter.
After the installation I have compiled and used the drives for the Asis adapter.
The both other devices are my USB Keyboard and Mouse.
2. My other problem is, that after the update my resulution of my console is very weak, this is just bad but not a real problem, I can live with that.
Thanks in advance for helping me

Backup on CD/DVD wont work. crashes when it tries to burn 1. DVD

i tried it several times, but it wont work. if i start itunes tells me that it needs 4 DVDs to backup the whole library. so i put in the first one. the process collects informations and then writes the first DVD. then the burning process starts but windows shows up a messege that iTunes occured an error and had to be shut down. no more explantations.
now i reinstalled my windows xp and itunes so that i have a new clean system. i copied the library from a external HD. i tried it again but still, the error comes.
i have about 3.600 songs in my library, no other stuff. i used a 16 x DVD+R disc for burning. i also burned other stuff with other tools on this type of DVD so it seems not to be a hardware problem.
please, that exporting to DVD thin is the only way to properly transport my library to my new iMac. copiyng it with an external HD wont work so this is the only thing i can do.

nobody? meanwhile i retried the process but this time i choose CDs instead of DVDs. it took me a bunch of CDs but at least it worked. BUT after reimport in the Mac iTunes all the coverpics from my own imported cd's where gone. why is that so!? downloaded songs' covers are still there.

CD-ROM drive wont work anymore

Help!
My CD-ROM drive doesnt work anymore...if I try to put a CD or DVD in, it doesnt automatically take it in. It goes in almost all the way and then there is a sound and it spits it out. What do I do? Where do I look for it in my system profiler to know if it is being detected? Nothing has happened bw the time it work and now...Not sure what to do. My laptop is maybe 6 months old.
Thanks!

Aaron..thanks for ur reply! I was hoping there was something else that could be done bc now Im afraid I may have caused the problem, although Im not sure I did bc what I think could be related to this happened after the first week I got my laptop....
There were some posts about resetting the powerbook etc but wasnt sure if that actually worked for anyone...
I will inquire at apple I guess too...both my ipod and my powerbook are busted after 6 m onths...makes no sense.

Mini displayport wont work ANYMORE?.

Hey all.
About a year ago I bought a mini displayport to HDMI adapter, and it worked fine. But then it began to only work sometimes. And now it wont work at all.
Sometimes I try to plug it in and then pull slightly to one and the other side, and sometimes a picture actually accurs on my external screen - whick got me thinking that the problem must be a loose connection or something?
My question here is: Do u think that it is the adapter or the port?.. Has anyone ever experienced a broken Mini displayport?..
(it is a Moshi adapter, and it looks like new on the outside..)

the serial number is CNF74741T0

Ipod touch built-in speakers wont work anymore. please help

Like I said my ipod touch built in speakers wont work now yesterday I was able to hear and use them when I was using the pianist app from the itunes store and it worked fine and today I redownloaded the digidrummer lite app since my old one for some reason didnt work and once I did download the app I synced to my ipod and tried to play and noticed that no sound came out so I tried other apps and also my music and also no sound. with headphones connected it works fine sound comes out and all.

K, so last night I tried the home+sleep/wake button hold thing and reset it that way and also just normal shutoffs which didnt fix it and also tried the ideas that you guys said and no go. everynow and then it would make the sound when I unlock it. so i just left it on and let the battery die see if that would do something it got to 10% and shuts off i guess so then i charged it on my stereo system with an ipod dock and was listening to music then i disconected it and to my suprise it started playing through the internal speakers again. I was skeptical at first so I turned it off and tried again it worked. so i went to the app that I think caused the problem in the first place called digidrummer lite I was able to hear the drums tom toms etc went to the home menu tried again played that app once more but this time there was no sound. I went to my music and everynow and then it would play but fade out or not play at all. so I took digidrummer off and so far the speakers are working again but I will still need to test them more.

Updated to mavericks dvd wont work nor a external dvd

updated to mavericks from leopard and dvd drive stopped working as well as external dvd drive . it dismounts the external dvd drive half way through the burn . tried a disc cleaner . any ideas ? have clean reinstalled mavericks from usb but toast and disc utility wont burn now

Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. Using the Terminal app:
Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following
drutil eject
or in case you have an external and internal disc drive:
drutil eject internal
drutil eject external
or
drutil eject -drive internal
drutil eject -drive external
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into single-user mode. At the prompt enter the same Terminal command as used above.
To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

I have a macbook white with osx 10.6.8 and the software update wont work anymore for upgrading the software ,what should i do?

some of the apps that i just downloaded are not compatible with my software and when I tried to upgrade to mavericks from the app store, in my download list it wont download. Before ive tried download it, it worked, but i paused it, so when i tried again, nothings changed
Please help, should i download mac os x 10.7? and where?
thank you

Software Update won't take you beyond 10.6.8 which is the highest incremental update for Snow Leopard. The fact that it won't let you upgrade to Mavericks suggests that your Mac is not compatible.
You should start by checking that your Mac can handle Lion, for which the requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
The original early 2006 MacBooks have only a Core Duo processor and so are not compatible, but the models from late 2006 on have a Core 2 Duo and so should be.
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). You will get a code which you can use to download it from the Mac App Store.

DVD wont work - please advise?

Hi,
I am trying to burn a DVD video with AC3 surround sound using DVD Studio Pro 3.
I have exported my individual stems from Pro Tools HD, imported into A.Pack and have a AC3 fie.
I have a quicktime movie.
I have created a new project, imported my video and audio as assets and everything works fine.
As I am wanting this to play without a menu, I have followed Apples online document to set up parameters as follows: -
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93812
I have tested my DVD in simulator and it works fine.
I have built and formatted my DVD as standard DVD.
Prefs as follows: -
Aspect ratio 4:3
video standard : - pal
Encode mode : - on build
I am then given my video and audio TS files.
I have tested my Video_TS files in DVD player on the mac and that works fine.
When I burn my DVD the mac ejects it when done.
I try to load the DVD to test in macs DVD player and the DVD doesnt come up on the desktop.
I try to load the DVD in the external DVD player and it cannot recognise the disk.
I have followed every help file I can find and simulator and DVD player show no problems.
Please can anyone help?

Wellcome to the forums!!
You didn't mention your burning workflow, but most probably there is your mistake.
I think the best is creating a Disc Image from your DVDSP project and then burn it using Toast or Disk Utility. Check this * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP Tutorial *.
Hope that helps !

Burned a movie to DVD from Macbook, but dvd wont work on DVD player

how come does this message saying, this type of disc cannot play on a DVD player?, but it still works on the computer

Is your DVD player capable of playing DVDR? If it is then perhaps its just the way the file was burned. If you have a different DVD try using that and see if it plays. If that doesn't work then either your DVD player doesn't play DVDR or your settings are wrong.
