Faces won't suggest probably matches (anymore)

When I first installed the new iPhoto, it scanned for hours, and did an amazing job with pictures of myself. It suggested almost all of them, and within minutes I had them all identified.
I then went to the next person, my dad, and....zero suggestions.
Tried mom...zero suggestions.
It seems to have only made suggestions for my face, and nobody else's. Anybody else experience faces doing that? Makes suggestions for one person, and that's it?

I found that iPhoto '09 learns very well. The more names you confirm (both accept and reject), the more accurate it becomes. And that includes making more suggestions. Find a couple of pictures that haven't been tagged at all, and manually assign a bunch of faces. This can lead to a whole new set of suggestions.

GIMP won't open PDF files anymore

I just reinstalled my system and noticed that GIMP won't open PDF files anymore. I remember being able to use GIMP to open PDFs and save them as high resolution images.... Am I missing something?

Make sure you have poppler-glib installed.
If you have imagemagick installed you might also want to try "convert my.pdf my.jpg". It will be done before gimp opens.

IPhone won't auto launch iTunes anymore

I just updated to Lion and the new version of iTunes. When I plug in my iPhone, however, iTunes won't launch and autosync anymore. I checked the settings and, based on my preference settings, it should autolaunch. I tried to click and unclick on the setting, restart the computer, etc., but nothing will get iTunes to launch when I plug in my phone. If I launch iTunes manually, it will immediately begin syncing however. Any thoughts how I can go back to the old way?

Same issue here. iTunes 10.4 doesn't seem to automatically install the iTunes Helper in your user login items.
Here's what I did:
Navigate to the Applications folder
Right Click on iTunes and select Show Package Contents
Navigate to Contents/MacOS/
Double-click on iTunes Helper to get it running. This will allow iTunes to start when you plug in your iPhone/iPod
Open System Preferences and go to Users & Groups
Select the Login Items tab to view the list
Drag iTunes Helper from the Finder into the Login Items to get it to run at login

My ipad 2 won't hold a charge anymore. What can I do?

My ipad 2 won't hold a charge anymore. I'll charge it up, get it to 100%, unplug it and shortly after wards, it's drained down. What can I do?

Batteries eventually fail, and it sounds like that's happened with your iPad. You'll need to take or send it Apple to get the battery replaced. See:

Why won't my g4 desktop come on. I was trying to boot in safe mode and it would not go in safe mode. It won't come back on anymore. Can some tell me what to do.

Try Single User mode (Command+S while starting up).
Then, run fsck.
At the command-line prompt type:
/sbin/fsck -fy
Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found:
** The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OKIf fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message:
***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****
Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
When fsck reports that your volume is OK, typerebootat the prompt and then press Return.
Your computer should start up normally and allow you to log in.

ITunes Match won't upload non-matched songs on my home network

As it says in the subject, iTunes Match won't upload non-matched songs on my home network. For a while I thought the problem was with iTunes Match itself. And maybe it still is somehow. But I recently discovered the problem only occurs on my own home network. Any time I add a song to iTunes that isn't in the iTunes store, it should upload it. But instead it just loops in failed attempts to upload, always stopping and starting over at step 1. Occasionally I'll get error messages like -9810, but more often it'll just continue to loop for hours on end. I recently took my MBP to a coffee shop and used their wifi and tried it there, and the songs uploaded without any problem at all. I never used to have this issue over the entire year I was using iTunes Match. My only guess as to what might have caused the issue is when we downgraded the speed of our internet. I can't recall for certain whether that was the exact time my issues began, but it's the only possible change I can think of. I've tried rebooting the router, turning iTunes Match and Genius off and on, rebooting the computer, creating a new iTunes Library, all not solving my problem. Any other ideas?

There's a longer thread discussing this problem over here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4160355?start=120&tstart=0
What I posted there is that if I enable QOS on my router and limit my upload bandwidth (I used a cap of 1024 kilobits/second) then iTunes Match stops looping and will successfully upload songs and complete match.
There aren't any blocked ports, it's really just iTunes being a pig and oversaturating the internet connection to a point of failure.
Super frustrating, it's been a bug for months. I wish I had a better solution.

Safari won't play youtube videos anymore. I've never had trouble in the past. I switched to chrome but then back to safari and changed the default browser to safari. Now safari won't open any sites that require a user and password. Any suggestions?

Hello everyone,
I've recently been getting error messages on youtube videos when using safari. This never used to happen. I tried using chrome but it didn't take care of the problem. When I set my default browser back to safari, safari won't open any websites that require a username and password. Any suggestions?

My case is different from those listed below. First, I'm running OS X 10.8.5 and Safari 6.0.5.
My problem is this:
I run a Google search, say, "youtube somesong", and from the hit list returned from google I
pick some selection. Youtube launches and plays the video without problems. However, when
i click on any of the alternate videos from the page's vertical list, only the name of the chosen video
appears beneath the video I just watched. The new selection itself is not loaded by Safari.
This occurs for any selection I choose. My way around this problem is to force a Safari reload of
the page by using the keyboard shortcut, Command-R. This fills in the old video window with the
video I just chose. Can I conclude that this is a Safari issue alone, or is it a Safari/Youtube combo gotcha? Anyway, the present condition *****.
This problem began sometime after i upgraded to Mountain Lion. I have reset Safari and have also
deleted the Youtube.com Cache, Cookies, and Local Storage from the Privacy settings under
System Preferences. I have also tested the problem by running Safari in 32 bit mode (no luck there).
If anyone out there has experienced this scenario, I sure could use a little help here.

ITunes match songs won't load in iTunes anymore

I purchased iTunes match a while ago and was very happy with it. Normally, I could just open iTunes on my computer and in a second or two all my songs could be streamed or downloaded. Just today though, when I open iTunes, my songs aren't loading. All of cloud tracks appear as in below. You can't stream or download anything and by the Music tab there is a smal cloud icon that keeps appearing as if it's loading. Is anybody else encountering this same problem?

I had an issue similar to this. I think the cause was an interruption in downloading a song from the cloud. After that, it would not let me download any more. Resetting the iTunes store cache under Preferences > Advanced, then restarting iTunes seemed to resolve the issue for me.

My iPad won't sync with iCloud anymore, iPhone and Mac are fine, suggestions?

I have NO calendars showing up in iCal, no lists in reminders, no contacts.
I've deleted the iCloud account on the iPad and resigned in - no help. All the settings for accounts are the same on my iPad and iPhone.
Curiously, I get no "Default Calendar" setting in my "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" pref on the iPad

Hello Modean,
It sounds like you have deleted and re added the iCloud account to your iPad but none of the iCloud content will sync to this one device. I have a few things to recommend for you. First, delete the iCloud account again from Settings > iCloud. Then close all the apps on the iPad:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, reset the network settings on your iPad then retest the issue:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

Take care,

IPod 3G Shows Sad-Face, Won't Let Me Do Five R's, just has a whirring sound

everytime i try to turn on my ipod, it just shows the sad face and has a faint whirring sound behind it, kinda like:
whirrrrrr(click)........whirrrrrr(click)........whirrrrrr(click)........
does this for a min. then turns off, can anybody help me?
(the ipod is the last monochromatic one before they went color, which i'm just about sure is the 3G)
thanks for any help!

Hello,
If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
In case you need an old versions (window only)
http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
Intermediate Level
A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=501330&tstart=0
C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
Tips
a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iPod updater.
b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

Advance Level
A. Diagnostic mode solution
If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
B. Format your iPod with a start disk
I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk
http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
Just in case that you are at the following situation
Your iPod warranty is expired
You don’t want to pay any service charges
You are prepared to buy a new one
You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
Last Resort Level
1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)
http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/index.cfm?page=Video/directory.html
2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.
