    I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    Try here:
    iTunes: Unable to sync photos
    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

  • Window stuck maximised; "restore down" minimizes window.

    There are a few posts already about this problem, where FF windows will not resize from maximum via the restore down button, but instead minimize to the toolbar...and vice versa, you can only maximize the window from the minimized position.
    After searching for solutions to this problem, I saw one post that suggested closing Firefox (I have 13.0.1), then opening it in Safe Mode. I'm running Windows Vista and couldn't find how to open FF that way, but instead I ran FF as administrator and the problem was solved!
    I wanted to share this solution to help others in previous posts, but the threads have been locked and marked as Solved, which is why I am posting this 'question'. Just In Case there is anyone out there who also is seeking solutions to the problem! (And also to perhaps encourage administrators to keep threads open a Little bit longer...it would seem that several so-called 'solved' problems actually are not.
    Thanks!

    TokyoBill, thanks for sharing your solution for your problem with us.
    by the way see in the next links what is and how to open firefox in '''safe mode ''':

  • When I click the restore down button the webpage is suddenly too wide and I cannot adjust it with the black arrows.

    Two hours ago it was fine but now it won't let me adjust the width when I restore down pages. The width is currently half the screen, which is too large for what I'm doing. The black double-headed arrow appears, but it won't let me make the webpage thinner. I can make it wider, though, but that's not what I need.

    There is a minimum width. Users have reported different values ranging from 374 to about 400 pixels. If you need a window smaller than the minimum width, please see these threads for how to override the built-in minimum with a smaller one:

  • After deleting mozilla as part of migration to windows 7 from xp, can't reinstall as it hangs up after user authorization( flashes a message that disappears)

    Tried to make some room on the hard drive by erasing the windows old folder on this computer that was created when I upgraded to windows 7 from XP. After erasing that folder Firefox no longer worked so I went to Mozilla and downloaded it again- at least the stub installer, but after running that file some message quickly pops up (too fast to read) then the user authorization comes up and I choose yes, make the changes to the system and it never gets anywhere from there. It doesn't go to the downloading screen or anything else. I have tried turning off all anti-virus and anti-malware software (Norton 360). I have removed all references in the registry and rebooting several times. I have also gone directly to the downloads folder and ran the installer as administrator and that doesn't work either. I don't know what else to try. The other browsers don't compare to Firefox. I am an ED of a nonprofit and want to support Mozilla and really need my productivity back! Please help!

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 26: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    if possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • I can not open anything in Firefox. Nothing at all. I try to open the troubleshooting tab but it can not even do that. I do not get error messages.

    It wont respond to my clicking at all. I have just downloaded firefox and have not used it at all. What should i do?

    See if you can start Firefox in Safe Mode.
    You can use one of these to start Firefox in <u>Safe Mode</u>:
    *On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
    *On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
    *Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • My screen will not restore down using the icon

    My screen will not restore down on Firefox. It will restore down on IE8 but I prefer to use Ftrefox.

    Do you have any peripherals connected to the computer such as a printer, external HD, scannner etc. If so try disconnecting each one by one. My guess is one of them may be causing your problem.

  • Firefox keeps crahing when I close a tab or minimize the browser, any fix?

  • Can't rectify a problem after  trying to delete the Movie folder from iDisk

    A little while ago I deleted the folder named "Movies" from my iDisk. I had never used it so I thought I could just get rid of it. Since then whenever I start the laptop, presumably at the stage it syncs the iDisk, I get the message.. ...There is a problem deleting the folder "Movies" . You do not have permission to delete this folder. You can check your permissions in the Info panel in the Finder.
    Its as if the command to try to delete this folder is undoable but simply won't go away. Its really irritating. I accept I'll have to live with the folder, I just want to get rid of the recurring message.
    I can see now that the Movie folder is one I'm going to have to live with!
    How can I get back to the default folder setup so this message doesn't come up any more.
    By the way, The "permissions" on the iDisk say that I have read / write privileges.
    Many thanks... iain B

  • JNI Problem - JAVA invoke C++ and the way back from C++ to JAVA

    Hi @ all!
    I am a computer science student and I have a problem with the JNI Interface.
    First the program structure:
    We have a Java GUI a wrapper and a C++ protocol. That is the general communication way:
    left side:
    JAVA GUI
    |
    Wrapper (JAVA)
    |
    C++ protocol
    |
    |
    Network transfer
    |
    |
    C++ protocol
    |
    Wrapper (JAVA)
    |
    JAVA Gui
    The program sequence is following:
    - The GUI will be started and call a protocol init method in the native code. The JAVA and C++ instance are already running!!
    - The protocol handles some information.
    - Then the left side e.g. invoke a method. The protocol transmits the packet to the other side. But HERE is the problem. On the other side the protocol must call a static JAVA Method from the running JAVA instance.
    I have no idea how I can handle this problem. I tried to save the env pointer und the jobject at the first invocation from Java to C++. With this elements I tried to getObjectClass(saved jobject) and tried to invoke the static JAVA method but I got a SIGSEGV from the JVM.
    How can I solve this problem??
    By the way, I generate through the java wrapper my C++ header and the the Java wrapper load a shared object!
    I work with a Gentoo System and with Java 1.5.
    I hope anybody can help me!
    Cheers,
    Edited by: polo6n2 on Jul 3, 2008 1:04 AM

    You mean the communication is aschronous?
    Then the C++ side will have a C++ thread. That thread calls a method. That method FIRST uses the JNI method to attache the thread.
    Then you look up whatever you need in java, maybe a class and you call JNI methods to interact with it.
    If you don't attach the thread it will not work.
    JAVA method but I got a SIGSEGVThen you did something wrong in your C++ code.
