Empty "Links1" and "Links2" folders in Safari after syncing my Internet Explorer Bookmarks with iTunes.

I use Firefox and Internet Explorer on my desktop and sync the bookmarks between them using XMarks. I then sync my Internet Eplorer bookmarks to my iPad using iTunes. On top of all of my bookmarks, which sync fine, I have 2 extra empty folders called "Links__1" and "Links__2". I can delete them but they eventually reappear after syncing (though not always on the next sync).
Any ideas on what is causing this and how to prevent this would be appreciated.

Solved.
I think.
I had 2 hidden "Favorites Bar" folders in my Favorites folder. Deleted them and the pronlem seems to have gone away.
Fingers crossed.

It's a pre-installed app and therefore cannot be deleted so you may have inadvertently moved it onto a screen or into a folder, check the utilities folder as this is a common one for it to disappear into. Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the app it still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where it is. If you find it on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it. Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

I upgraded to 10.5.1 and all my music disappeared after syncing. How do I get it back?

i upgraded iTunes to 10.5.1 and all my music disappeared after syncing. How do I get it back?

I lost all my music, too - except for 3 pieces!? And I just upgraded, didn't choose sync'ing :-(((
Sure would like to get back my music, videos and playlists!
Most of it was my personal compositions/recordings, not bought at the iTunes store.

You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

Restart your computer
While your computer is restarting, clear all of the applications from the background on your iPhone. You can do this by pushing the home button twice and swiping the programs off the screen by pushing them upwards.
After you are done doing that, restart your phone.
Wait about 10 seconds or so and turn your phone back on. By the time you get your phone back on your computer should be completly restarted and ready to go.
When your phone is back on, plug it into your computer. This should automatically bring up your Itunes, you may get another pop up that says autoplay, you can close that out. That's it. I hope it helps and good luck

Is it the same user/iTunes account or...?
Syncing to a new computer should give you the opportunity to replace the exisiting contents with the new.

No, sorry... did not happen becasue no such model exists.
If the device is in recovery mode, any data on it is already lost.
The only options are:
Restore the device to get it functional.
Enjoy the paper weight.
For what reason did you attempt to update the device without first ensuring that your data was safe, meaning backing up the device and copying important pictures/videos taken with the device to a computer?

I have a 80gb ipod classic and i cannot get it to sync anymore since I updated my itunes. Does anyone have any suggestions on what i should do

Does the device show up in Windows Explorer when connected?
Have you tried going into Control Panel > Programs & Features > iTunes > Repair?
Have you proved the cable with a different device, or the device's connectivity with a different computer?

Some of my applications and/or folders got corrupted after using Migration Assistant

Hello,
Had an iMac with Snow Leopard installed (1 single admin user).
Also had a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard installed (1 single admin user).
Got everything transfered to a single brand new MacMini with Lion pre-installed using the following method:
- Started the new Mac Mini from scratch and used Migration Assistant during setup process to import ALL data from old MacMini (user, applications, settings and other files) using ethernet connection.
- This went perfectly well with 1 or 2 minor errors regarding 1 or 2 startup items but resolved with erasing and re-installing them.
- Applied all available Software Updates to get an updated version of Lion (10.7.5)
- Then launched Migration Assistant from the new Mac Mini to import ALL data from iMac (user, applications, settings and other files)
- This went well as I got the same message than previous transfer (all data was transferred OK)
- Also got another message saying some X folder was not compatible with targeted system and same with some CHUD folder.
I finally got my 2 admin users gathered onto the single new Mac Mini in 2 separate admin user sessions.
If an app was already transferred from the old Mini but also installed on the iMac it did not get transferred from the iMac thus keeping the Mac Mini version.
For such apps I have permissions issues and some of the folders used by the 2 different admin users such as /Movies or /Documents are locked depending on which user session is opened.
I tried repairing permissionsusing Disk Utility but with no success.
I also tried to delete and re-install these applications but it did not work.
Last chance was to grant full access attributes to the related folders via their information panel or System Preferences (User & Groups tab) but it did not work either.
Could somebody please explain the background for this issue and how could I solve it?
I am thinking of re-installing Lion from scratch, transfer the old Mac Mini again (ALL data) and then import iMac user but only USER data (not applications and settings). Would it work?
Thanks for any help you could provide,
François

I was finally able to fix this by using a couple of preference management utilities. Either I missed a key preference file for each app, or there are some hidden preference files, but when I used the prefence management utitilities (such as Preferntial Treatment, PrefEdit, Defaulter, or PlistEdit Pro) I was able to look at the prefs for Firefox and Photoshop CS2 and see where the hostname for the my old G4 was listed. (in the case of Photoshop CS2 it was actually in the list of recently opened files!! I should have noticed that from within Photoshop)
Now that I've removed those entries from preferences both Photoshop and Firefox run without prompting that the old G4 had to mounted.
oh, also... I found that for both Photoshop & Firefox I could actually get them to work without mounting the old G4's root volume - it just took clicking past the pop-ups (about 10 of them for each app) and waiting a long time as it searched around for the next one (maybe about 10 minutes total ... normally I don't have time to waste like that, but I got curious and made the time).
Thank you for your suggestions. as I had suspected, Migration Assistant moved some preferences from the old G4 that had it's hostname embedded and for some reason the apps weren't clearing them out when they were launched on the new machine (again, odd since I didn't have Migration Assistant move the apps from the old G4 to the new G5 - I installed each app on the G5 as a new install (aka: a "clean install") to avoid just this type of problem).
My real thanks are to the authors of the above mentioned preference management utilities.

Nokia E71 and Isync-Delete my contacts after syncing

Hey guys really need help! after syncing with entourage some of my contacts got deleted for no reasons. I am not sure how many but quite a few got deleted.
Can I know how can I stop this from happening and sometimes it duplicates the events.
Please help thanks heap!

Syncing Entourage with iCal and Address Book and then onto your phone increases the likelihood of duplication or corruption of data.
In general, the less things you are syncing with the better, so consider switching to Address Book and iCal rather than using Entourage for best results.
Clicking "Reset Sync History..." in iSync's Preferences may resolve your current issue, but make sure you backup first and keep regular backups in the future to avoid data loss, if this happens again.

Safari says "Please Update Internet Explorer"

In last two days, everytime I try to connect google.com (and once that I try to connect facebook.com), there pops up a message saying "WARNING! Your internet Explorer is out of date Please Update" though I never installed IE before. When I click OK, it directs me a suspicious (probably fraud) page saying that "OUTDATED BROWSER DETECTED" and wants me to install IE. You can check screenshots. This really disturbs me because I can't use google.com or google search anymore!
Can it be a virus or something?
PS: I started to see this after I installed Chrome, TunnelBear, Zenmate, Hotspot Shield (I uninstall the last two in a couple of minutes after installing). Can these softwares be suspicious?
As unsuccessful attempts, I reset Safari, clear cookies and restart the system... Don't work...
Please help!

This looks like a hacked router.
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network ▹ Advanced... ▹ DNS
Under DNS Servers you should have one or more numerical addresses, such as “192.168.1.1” or “10.0.0.1”. What are those addresses?

After synching my iPhone5 (w iOS8) with iTunes, the Usage/Storage is no longer correct

This evening, I was syncing my iPhone5 (which is running iOS8) with iTunes, and noticed that all of a sudden, my overall storage breakdown of my phone was not adding up. My phone should have 7.4 GBs of space remaining, but all of sudden it started displaying that 23.5GB was available! All of the apps, photos, music, etc., appear to have synced correctly and are present on my phone, but the iOS is no longer recognizing how much storage I actual have available.
I initially tried re-syncing items, and did not change anything.
I then fully restored my iPhone and this seemed to fix the problem.
After re-syncing all of my music, the problem did not re-appear.
After an additional sync, it appeared that a bunch of album artwork was syncing to the device, and then suddenly the problem reappeared.
This appears to be a problem with the syncing between iTunes and the iPhone in iOS8, and it's screwing up how data is recognized and counted in the total device usage.
Any help or suggestions on how to fix this?

I had restrictions on other things, but not deleting apps - but I disabled all restrictions & now I see the x again... seems silly, but oh well, as long as it worked. Thanks!
