First frozen "on," then the folder, then nothing

First the Nano froze in the "on" position. Then when I got it home, it showed me that folder with the support. And now it won't reset. ITunes doesn't recognize it. I have plugged it in various USB ports. Nothing seems to recognize it. Any ideas?

Well, if the internal hard drive is no longer readable, there's pretty much nothing anyone here can do about it. There are no magic words that will fix a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the genius bar and have it looked at.

Hello there, gleab.
The following Knowledge Base article reviews the ways to import content into iTunes:
Adding music and other content to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
Also keep in mind which formats can be added:
You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Make sure the TV's menu is actually set to connect to that HDMI port.
Make sure the TV is 1080p and is setup to use that resolution on the HDMI port in question.

I have an IMac. I put a folder on the desk top and now want to delete it. The folder seems to be locked. I went to get info and tried to unlock it but still can't delete it. The folder has nothing in it. Any help would be great. Thanks

I have an IMac. I put a folder on the desk top and now want to delete it. The folder seems to be locked. I went into Get Info and attemted to unlock the folder and delete it. Won't go away. There is nothing in the folder. How do I unlock this folder and delete it? When I try to delete it, I'm asked for my password which I put in and is accepted, but will not delete the folder. Any help would be great.

If you are sure there is nothing in it, download trashit, a useful free app. That will dispose of it.

Button actions only work the first time used then nothing?

This is what I have...
I Have 2 buttons in MC named mcMovieTrans the AS for these buttons are in the MC's timeline, the code is:
stop();
function playLifeboy(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(3);
function playKrave(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndStop(2);
lifeboy_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playLifeboy);
krave_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playKrave);
when the buttons are activated they go to there corresponding frames and Stop. As an example of what happens next I'll show you frame 3 which plays MC mcKraveMovie:
Frame 45 has a flv. movie on it that plays at this frame. The AS for this timeline on Frame 45 is:
stop();
function playReturn(event:MouseEvent):void
gotoAndPlay(46);
return_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playReturn);
The AS for the timeline on Frame 90 is:
MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop(1);
This is where the problem occurs because when this action takes place and it returns to the parent MC (mcMovieTrans) The buttons actions dont work anymore.
And I get this error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at capQinc_fla::mcMovieTrans_89/frame1()[capQinc_fla.mcMovieTrans_89::frame1:15]
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at capQinc_fla::mcKraveMovie_97/frame90()[capQinc_fla.mcKraveMovie_97::frame90:1]
Thanks

Thanks,
I replaced all the button symbols that where in tweens on the MC mcKraveMovie with static art. But I still Get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at capQinc_fla::mcMovieTrans_89/frame1()[capQinc_fla.mcMovieTrans_89::frame1:15]
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at capQinc_fla::mcKraveMovie_97/frame90()[capQinc_fla.mcKraveMovie_97::frame90:1]
This is the timeline for the (Parent) MC mcMovieTrans:
If that helps at all, the only place where the buttons are (and there actions) are in Frame 1 of this Timeline
Thanks

Photo Booth is not saving pictures in the folder

Hey,
I am facing some issues with my Photo Booth! I am able to take pictures and they drop down to the bottom of the photo booth window, but when i check the folder in ‘'pictures'' its always empty. Before the pictures which were taken got automatically saved in the folder, now nothing happens.
I hope someone can help me out.
Sofia

Hello sofia62,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to have the pictures taken in PhotoBooth to show up in Pictures. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
This article says 4.x but these step still work to export in version 7.
Photo Booth 4.x: Export a Photo Booth snapshot or video clip
Click the thumbnail and choose File > Export, or Control-click the thumbnail and choose Export.Specify a filename, select a location for the file, and click Save.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

My G5 is starting up with an icon of a file folder with the smile face. Motor runs loudly and then nothing. What is going on?, my G5 is starting up with an icon of a file folder with the smile face. Motor runs loudly and then nothing. What is going on?

My G5 is starting up with an icon of a file folder with a blue smile face. The motor will run loudly for a few minutes and then nothing. I can not get it to run at all.
Any suggestions?

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If that doesn't work, Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

Iphone 4 sync issue - My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob

My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?

Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.

When i clicked on erase all content and setting in my iphone3, it first shut down and next the apple logo appears and then nothing happens, how to fix it

when i clicked on erase all content and setting in my iphone3, it first shut down and next the apple logo appears and then nothing happens, its been 12hrs since like that. i tried force restart by clicking the home and sleep/wake button, and still same issue.

I believe with the 3G and the older iOS, erase all content and settings acts differently than the newer iOS. You can use this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to place the phone in recovery mode and restore it.

When I click on Compose in my gmail acct. I get the error #000. Then nothing works. Gmail info sent me to you.

When I am in my gmail acct. and click on "Compose" the box comes up and I can type in it, but an error message #000 appears at the top. It says it will retry in "so many minutes" and never does. It just adds time. The retry button only adds to the time in the "so many minutes." You can type in the compose box but it will never send and then nothing else will work. I click on the inbox and it will not response and the same with the other buttons.
My husband has an account, too and it doesn't do this. I can click compose, type, and send in his gmail acct.

I deleted my download folder and now I can't download anything. I can't select the folder to "save file to" and when I select "ask me where to save files" I still can't download. it says your file will start downloading, but then it doesn't. Help!!

I deleted the folder that saves everything that is downloaded from Firefox. After that I can't download anymore. I've tried clearing my download history, reset the download folder, reset the download action by renaming the mimetype.rdfs file and it's still not working. I've tried to choose a different download folder but it doesn't let me select any folder at all. If I select "ask me where to save files" and then try and download something, the download doesn't start after I select save to. The only time it does actually download is when I select "open with...windows mediaplayer" when downloading then the download will start. Please help. Thank you.

You broke your phone by getting it wet. Nothing more to say. Bring it in to Apple for an out of warranty exchange or buy a new phone. There's really nothing else we users here can help you with.

When I swipe phone to open, and hit the phone icon, then make a call, most times it says "calling mobile" but then nothing happens.

Same thing here. I'm getting very frustrated. When I swipe phone to open, and hit the phone icon, then make a call, most times it says "calling mobile" but then nothing happens. Then I try to end the call and hit the END button. Sure, it looks like the call disconnected, but as soon as I try to make another call, I see the same screen (the first called) and the words "calling mobile". The only way I can rememdy this, naturally, is powering off and restarting. But, c'mon...$300 for a phone that you have to power down between calls???
I've got the latest OS update, no jailbreak, or anything exotic on my 4s. What's more, when I try to make a call 2 out of 3 times, the dumb SIRI opens up and stops me from making the call. (and, yes, I have very carefully checked my process that I am not intentionally activating SIRI with my cheek.)
Again, $300 for all this in just trying to make a call?

reset your phonr by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Presuming you get the chime, most of your Mac hardware is working and has passed the first part of the power-on self-test.
If the screen comes on, basic graphics is working.
The dark gray Apple is not present inside the Mac -- it must be loaded from a boot device. If the dark gray Apple appears, at least one of your boot devices has some capabilities. The flower petal/gear moves while Darwin is initializing and loading. If it stops immediately, something is terribly wrong.
When the screen turns blue, Mac OS X has loaded and your graphics card transitions to Interrupt-driven operation. LoginWindow task draws the login screen, and Mac OS X is ready for login.
What could be the problem depends on where in the process it stops, and whether the power light is blinking.
