Getting a Firewire error and iPod will not go to sleep now

Has anyone received this error before? My husband plugged his iPod into our PC for charging. After iPod showed charged on the screen, he unplugged it then got the firewire connection error and iPod will go into sleep mode so will not hold a charge now. If anyone has any fixes for this, please let me know.
Thanks,
Kim

I've used some needle nose pliers and i thought i had fixed them, yet I still receive the error when plugged in. I think i see a few pins that are bent backwards/broken in half. So i guess it's not repairable by my means, but am i able to go to an Apple store and maybe get some help? I mean, it's just bent pins in the dock connector; I would think they could help with that for maybe a small fee, yeah?

TS2167 I am running OS X 10.8.2 and IWeb 3.0.4 (601) and everytime I try to publish my website I get an unexpected error and it does not publish my changes. My website is pretty simple, mostly made up of iPhoto albums in different categories.

Where are you publishing to? Can you publish successfully to a folder on your hard drive? Have you read this webpage: Publish iWeb site using FTP. It may have a clue to where the problem is.
A quick troubleshooting fix is
Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
However, when you delete the preference file you probably will have to use the app described below to select and open your domain file with iWeb:
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

You'll need to connect the iPod Touch to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restore it factory settings. There is no other way.

Itunes 7 and ipod will not talk. No WAY TO RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS!

Hi,
update to itunes 7, plugged in my ipod and got the message "itunes cannon read the contents of the ipod "IPOD" Go to the Summary tab in ipod prefrences and click Restore to restore the ipod to factory settings".
But there is no ipod prefrences tab in itunes becuase itunes can't read the contents of the ipod! A reset through the ipod did no good!
I am now stuck with a ipod that can not talk to itunes! How can I reset my ipod to factory defaults if itunes does not see it? And no, the old updater does not work, it says you must update through itunes 7.
How do I fix this ?

This is all interesting and much of it consistent with problems I'm having across of the iPODs we have within our household since migrating to iTunes Release 7! Both our past generation and current iPOD can no longer be synched with iTunes. I seriously hope Apple addresses this issue soon! I've tried numerous approaches. I can't get my wife and daughter's iPOD minis to synch at all! My generation 3 I am able to force it to update by unstalling and reinstalling the driver in Windows. Then by uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. It will then load the music from iTunes on to my iPOD. iTunes will indicate the update is complete but the iPOD will not indicate the update is complete. Appreciate any thoughts or ideas that others may discover to resolve. I'm currently convinced this is an issue with iTunes Release 7 though as I'm not able to get any of our iPODs to work which includes my gen 3, our minis or nanos.

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem on one of my Macs (MBP 15 Mid-2010 / OS X Yosemite): Both reader and Acrobat Pro download without a hitch. Both also install with no problem.
But once you click the program to open, they both return "an internal error occurred".
I tried downloading three separate copies, and still get the same error message when I install and launch. I've also uninstalled the previous installations via CleanMyMac2 to make sure it's no longer in the SSD. Same results.
Am using a new SSD as internal boot drive, with fresh / clean installation of OS X and Apps (previous internal HDD crashed) -- And am seeing errors not only with Acrobat, but also with LR5 which always comes up with a "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" -- inspite or uninstall, download and reinstall. Not sure if it's a registry issue? (Not even sure if that's the case with OS X).
Do I need to reformat the whole SSD? I hope not!
Thanks

I get a MobileMe Popup and it will not publish

When I try to either Publish entire site or Publish changes I get a tiresome MobileMe popup asking me to join MobileMe. I am already a member. I just want to publish the updates on my site and it will not let me. How can I get rid of it and publish without tiresome interference?

Try this suggestion from a MobileMe support person:
"First, please make sure you have quit out of iWeb. Then I would suggest resetting your MobileMe System Preferences. To do this, open the MobileMe System Preference, sign out, and enter a random set of letters and numbers for the MobileMe member name and password, then press the Return key. After you receive notice that the name or password is invalid, close System Preferences, reopen the MobileMe System Preference, and reenter your MobileMe member name (without the "@me.com") and password.
Then open up iWeb again and re-publish your site."
If that doesn't help, you could try the suggestion at the end of this thread:
_Annoying iWeb Startup! HELP!_
If still no luck and you prefer not to wait for more possible suggestions, MobileMe live chat support is now 24/7 — see this announcement.

Touchsmart 520-1047c Mouse and Keyboard will not work after sleep mode

I have an issue which I need some help with. When my computer goes to sleep the wireless mouse and keyboard will not work unless I restart, however each one will wake the system up but will not operate after that. I have tried just making the display go to sleep, both go to sleep but that makes no difference same issue occurs. The only work around I have found is going into the power settings and turning the sleep mode off for booth the computer and display. This does not solve the problem it just masks it. New batteries, unplugged and replugged the dongle, updated the bios and all drivers. Don't know what else to try. Anybody know how to fix this? Thank you in advance for your help.

Since upgrading to itunes 11.1.4.62 my iPad and Ipod will not sync

Since upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4.62 my iPad and iPod are no longer recognized by iTunes when plugged into my Windows 8.1 PC? I have re-downloaded itunes and re-intalled/repaired the program but still will recognize the two. This has never been an issue before have always sync the two and the only change has been the most recent upgrade of itunes?

I had to set up an admin user account on my pc after trying to restore my phone after ios 7 nearly broke my pc. I used the admin account to delete all apple stuff as instructed and installed 11.1.4. Hate the new look and all that was left was some old stuff i had bought on itunes.Anything less than about 2 years old and my extensive vinyl library i had uploaded all gone. i back up every week. i found some music in the recycle bin and it took hours to restore that but i was still missing loads. I plugged in my 3rd gen touch. All my sync settings were gone and it would not let me change them, it was all unticked so sync wiped my touch. i tried again but still wouldn't let me select anything and said duplicate names were specified, my options were to erase the touch, overwrite the library on the pc or cancel. So a disaster. Then I logged in under my usual user id where i had failed to download the new itunes and my old library still existed - shame i cannot back up or sync anymore here either. The only thing i could do was restore my wiped touch as i still had a back up left here. whenever i plug in i get the duplicate names specified message erase or cancel and i can't change the settings which are all unticked here too. I think itunes can see my admin account library and my usual account library and can see they are not the same and this is the duplicate names problem
i would like to know how i can get my music out of itunes safely on to my computer so i can play it on something other than itunes.
Unfortunately my iphone is on orange so i am cursed with that too and their latest service issues have destroyed my battery. I can't get a new phone though becuase i won't be able to restore to get my stuff on to new phone becuase of this duplicate names error.
Apple have really messed things up for me - please can you tell me how to get my music out in a format that will play on other players and i suppose i will just have to write off the £50 credit i have in tunes but i cannot carry on with these disasters and apples indifference

While updating to ios7 there was an error and it did not restore my phone, now when i try to restore i get a message i tunes could not restore because back up could not be saved

I was updating my phone to ios7 and due to the lead being pulled it failed during restore, it has ios7 on the phone but everytime i try to restore it so all my pics, apps, music etc is on the phone i get the error message itunes could not restore because back up could not be saved. please help, im using windows xp

Hello agardner37701,
I found some steps you can take when your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes when in Recovery Mode. I recommend reviewing the steps in the section titled "If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode" under step 5 in the following article:

I am getting a new computer and it will not have any web browser software preloaded. Can I get a CD with Firefox in order to install?

I have a new computer that will not have any web browser installed when I acquire it. So, I cannot download Firefox, say, using Internet Explorer. Can I get a copy of Firefox on a CD and use that instead.

Easiest is to download the full Firefox installer and copy that file to an USB stick.

Such an USB stick is also useful for making backups of your profile data, so if you do not already have one then this is an opportunity to start making backups.

I have read of other problems close to mine and tried there solutions with no success.I do not know if my setting in pref. are correct or not.

You're welcome.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
In order to fix the problem, we'll have to re-create Envelope Index. The thing is, Mail may choke on those messages while re-creating the index, so either be prepared for that or perform optional steps 1 and 3:
1. (Optional, but recommended). Assuming this is a POP account, in the Finder go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/, and identify the *.emlx files associated with the troublesome messages. Viewing the *.emlx files as List in the Finder showing the creation/modification date may help. Just identify them; do not get rid of them yet (you must quit Mail first).
2. Quit Mail.
3. (Optional, but recommended). Move to the Trash the troublesome *.emlx files found in step 1.
4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong -- e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down.
5. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
6. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. Locate Deleted Messages.mbox, and move it to the Trash. I assume there is nothing to be preserved there.
7. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be "imported". Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it's "importing", but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.
