Every single form of media stops on iPhone 4
Guys, heres my prob. The phone i have is an iPhone GSM 4 running 4.3.5, and just today morning, every single form of media (songs on iPod, on other music apps, videos on youtube, even taptap revenge) have this problem where if i play it, they will play for 2 seconds, and then stops. For videos, they will play and load normally for 2 seconds or 3 seconds, the the video will stop and all loaded content (the white line at the tip which means that those parts of the video is loaded) will dissapear, and when i press play again, the video will play for another 2 seconds. Same for other download apps (idownload) and games (taptap). I read a lot of forums and many people have the problem where their music stops playing randomly, but all my music just stops like 2-3 seconds after i play it. And headphones arent a problem since i tried with and without them. Also the problem occurred suddenly, as i was watching youtube just before the videos stopped 2 seconds after playing. This is very frustrating. Anyone with similiar problems and know how to solve this?? Soooooo many thanks guys.
Hi taroli,
Where exactly are you getting the error message about the access rights & do you have the exact message that appears? Is it an iTunes error when you're trying to sync the data over?
The above would help isolate exactly where the issue is, would make sure you update iTunes and try another PC if possible. However if the issue is software related from the iOS then there will be no direct way to get all of that data across as any corruption would be saved in the backup file from the old phone, you would be able to sync content to the PC then sync it to the new phone however.
Here's a link to see exactly what backups contain and what's not stored there so you know what data you can preserve if the issue is iPhone related: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Hope this helps.

Managing/Organizing Multiple Forms of Media
I'm a new convert to Mac from Windows. I have various forms of media ranging from iPhone photos and videos to , DSLR photos and GoPro videos etc... In Windows I used Picasa which worked well. Since I could clump images and videos into a single folder from a single event (i.e. 2014 Christmas) and I could preview everything there.
As I migrate over to iPhoto i'm reluctant as I'm not sure how well iPhoto manages video. I've seen recommendations that iPhoto works best in "managed" mode over "referenced." I still like the idea that each event is in it's own separate real folder.
Also I've started to utilize iMovie to put together home videos, and need to make sure whichever permanent solution I come up with works well with that as well. I've seen Picasa is available on mac and I have installed that as a present term solution but want to identify if in the long run iPhoto will be better.Simple, yes, fast... no.
Start at the bottom of your folder tree and drag a folder of material (photos and video) to the Album heading in the iPhoto Window. iPhoto will import the material and make an Album with the same name. You can create the enclosing folders in iPhoto (File -> New Folder) and drag the album to it.
That said, bluntly, Year-Month is pretty much pointless in iPhoto. (and indeed, in general.) Who remembers that it was February 2003 when you went to that party? You just remember the party with John and the dog and it was February - or maybe March? ) 02? 03? was it 04?
You can find all the photos from any Year or Month with the Calendar tool in the search window. You can find any day or date range (say, Feb 05 to March 11 2013) with a Smart Album. So why waste time with folders dated by year? Better to be able to search on 'party' 'john' 'dog' or whatever it is that's in your head.
Here's a canned answer that I use to suggest *some* of the possibilities of organising with iPhoto. It might spark something:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 60k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
Hope something there helps.

Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,

[CS3] Is there a way to stop the modal alert on EVERY SINGLE ERROR during a bulk update?
I've inherited quite a mess I'll admit -- I've got ~ 8000 pages each with different dreamweaver templates with the entire site being in a varying state of disrepair. I need to perform a global change -- I'm thinking the way to go about this is to update the templates (thre are ~40 of them, not nested) and let the process run through. However, I've encountered difficulties.
After about ~2300 files loaded into the site cache, dreamweaver crashes -- there is no error, it's an unhandled exception.... it consistently crashes at this point. I'm not sure if this is a specific page causing the problem, or if it's that I'm trying to load 8K files into the site cache.... So anyway, with it crashing consistently trying to build the site cache, I basically press "stop" whenever it tries, and that seems to abort the building and the 'update pages' screen comes up and tries to update the files.
My next problem is that there are countless errors in each of these pages and templates -- ranging from the 'template not found' when an old or outdated file is referencing a template that has been deleted -- to various mismatched head or body tags. Of course, and this is probably the most annoying thing I've ever encountered, this bulk process that should run over 1000s of files without interaction seems to feel the need to give me a modal alert for every single error. The process stops until I press 'OK'
I'm talking update 5-10 files, error... hit 'return', another 5-10 files are processed, another alert, hit 'return' -- rinse and repeat. Oh, and I made the mistake one time of hitting 'return' one too many times -- oh yes, this will STOP the current update because default focus is on the 'Stop' button, for whatever reason. and if I want to get the rest of the files, I need to run it again -- from the start.
Is there a way to silence these errors? They're already showing up in the log, I wouldn't mind going through it once the entire site has been udpated to clean thing up ... but I'm updating quite literally thousands of pages here, I would wager that 1/3 of them have some form of an error on it... do I really need to press "OK" two thousand times to do a bulk update with this program?
Any tips from the pros?This one might help.

Hi, my iPhone 5s was disabled because i forgot my passcode. I was relying to 3 finger prints that I was saving before. I didn't know that passcode is required when the phone restarted. So I follow every single steps to recover my iPhone using i tunes.
Suddenly an iTunes pop up a message "that I must respond to iTunes on my phone, so that the computer could have access to the phone".
HOW COULD I RESPOND ON MY PHONE WHEN I WAS DISABLED ALREADY?
IS THERE ANY BUTTON TO BE PRESS AS CODE COMBINATION THAT STANDS AS MY RESPOND TO ITUNES?
<Edited by Host>Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

Iphone require me to local every single file.. why
Not sure is it something wrong with the database. I just re-installed leopard and I copy the entire iphone library from my backup.
When I opened the application it seems fine, all the thrumbnail and folder is there but when I click onto it. it said they cannot find the file and want me to local it.. and I have to do it for every single one..
I tried to delete the whole folder and import the file again but it said the volume cannot be found..
is there something wrong with my database ??Well what's happened here is that you've referenced the file and the file's location has changed. When you reference a file then you take responsibility for file management, and one of the trickiest things to do is move libraries across volumes.
Using REFERENCED libraries you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls.
1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
Always allowing for personal preference, I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.
If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
If you're concerned about finding the files there are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
As to getting our of your present predicament:
What version of iPhoto are you using? Your posting on the v5 forum, but you're on a MacBook and iirc the earliest version of iPhoto that came on a MacBook was v6. I ask as it makes a difference on the possible fixes.

Hi all I recently rang my service provider to complain about my
iPhone 4. Iv done this several times but they always fob me off. This time I kicked off and they told me I would have to speak to apple. I did and they told me there was nothing they could do as my phone was out of warranty.
Its really frustrated me cause it's a widely publicised issue that apple dropped a complete bollock allowing such a major flaw ever get released and then they have the cheek to use the warranty as a reason. This issue should not have anything to do with warranty as it's a fault
With every single iPhone 4 out there. There should have been a recall and the issue resolved. Im disgusted apple and I won't be buying anything from any of your products again.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this as apple want to charge me to repair even though it's there fault this issue exists?
ThanksI have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Every single website url address, or url address within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu.
I don't want everything added or saved in the location bar. Only urls that I used a lot used to be saved there but now every single url (and url within a url)I visit is being added to it.
How can I stop this? This just started happening.
I'm sure it's a simple browser setting but I've checked and nothing gives an option to control this.

iPhone 4S - Is anyone else experiencing strange behavior by the autocorrect? it's trying to autocorrect every single word... for instance "is" corrected to "OS". ***? it's happening on every single word!! Can i reset the feature?? HELP!
I have been an iPhone user since the first iPhone. In fact, i was first in line in 2007 at the Boston Apple Store at Chestnut Hill Mall.
I've never experienced such strange behavior by the autocorrect feature. Granted there is the occasional annoying autocorrect, but this is out of control. I can't even make it through a sentence without getting frustrated and wanting to throw the brand new iPhone 4S accross the room!
Someone please help!!!OOPS!! This is a case of user error..
I turned on a couple keyboards looking for the Emoji keyboard last night... So my assumption is that the "keyboards > language selection" is linked to the dictionaries the system uses for autocorrect? Well, whatever the case, I turned everything off except English and Emoji and that seemed to correct the problem.
If anyone else is having a blond moment, like me, consider user error first. LOL

I am not able to restore my iphone 4 after trying to install the new softwear. I tried every single possible way. What can I do?
There are two ways that a backup can become encrypted:
You chose to encrypt it, then forgot the password.
If you have company-provided MS Exchange access your IT department has the option of requiring your backup to be encrypted. The first time you backed up or synced after installing MS Exchange you were prompted for a password. That is the password you need.
If you don't have the password any longer there is no way to restore the backup. -
My machine has gone dead slow. I have to wait for minutes to perform every single function. Like it stopped typing four times during this question.
If this started happening without your having made any changes and without a warning of low disk space, then it's likely that the boot drive, or some other hardware component, is failing. Back up all data immediately, then run the Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics.
Even if the test is negative, you should make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested more thoroughly.
