GOT THE NEW MICRO FIRMWARE TO WORK!! Worth reading for those who've had proble

So to recap, my problem with both the 2.xx firmwares was as follows:
I have USB . proprietary on my system. I also added an ALi USB2.0 PCI card for the speed boost. USB . and 2.0 both worked fine with the .xx firmware. However, as soon as I upgraded . worked fine. The Micro was recognized as an MTP device, etc. etc.
The added USB 2.0 ports were another story -- the device was recognized by WinXP SP2 as an "unrecognized device" and by Creative not at all.
Anyway, my "revelation" came when I tried to manually identify the Micro as an MTP device by electing to choose my own driver. Everytime I tried this, it would start installing and then my computer would crash and suddenly reset. This is what caused me to think that the USB 2.0 card might be causing a conflict, even though none was identified by Windows. A conflict that only apparently arises through MTP use. Don't ask me why.
Anyway, I opened my system up and just moved the USB 2.0 card to another slot. LO AND BEHOLD, as soon as the card was reidentified by the system (and assigned a different memory address due to its new physical location on the board), so was my Zen!! It now works perfectly with my 2.0 card.
Anyway, so far so good. Hope this helps someone else.

Anecdotally people have a lot of problems with the ALI chipset, so it's good you've got it to work

You want to downgrade because the new updates won't work? Read this.

First of all, I'm not any kind of techie person, I just have gone through this horrible experience of not being able to get into the itunes store at all after downloading the last 2 updates (7.4.2.4 and 7.4.3.1). Once I downgraded to 7.3.2.6 I was back in the itunes store downloading whatever I wanted. But, it was not all fun & games - the library file wouldn't work with the older version of itunes, and I lost all my playlists and had to reimport all my music. The second time I downgraded I did figure out how to save the playlists, but I still haven't figured out how to restore the itunes library file. If anyone has ideas about that feel free to post here.
I consider this a last resort if you really need to get into the store. Hopefully you have already tried other suggestions in other forums. If you do decide to try this, you should read everything first to see what you're getting into. Also, if you just bought a new ipod, it probably won't work with the older version. You should keep calling the apple support phone #.
The process isn't that much harder than installing an new version, although you need to uninstall 7.4.x first. *If you decide to try this I highly suggest you do a backup to disk first just in case.* Uninstalling itunes doesn't delete any of your music files, but it never hurts to have a backup. Go to File>Backup to disc.
By the way, this is assuming you're on Windows XP.
First get ready:
1. Go to File>Export Library. Save this file somewhere in your My Documents Folder, not the iTunes folder.
2. Export each playlist you have individually by right clicking on the playlist and selecting Export songlist. Save these text files in the same folder as #1.
3. Now, download the version of iTunes you want from oldapps.com/itunes.htm. I used 7.3.2 and it worked fine.
4. While that's downloading start uninstalling iTunes under Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs. Remove Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, iTunes and QuickTime. Don't restart until all 4 are removed. (Optional, also run CCleaner - click the 'issues' button. This gets rid of a lot of little files that don't get removed in this process, but it's a little intimidating if you're not a techie person.)
5. Now restart. After you're back up, click on the iTunes setup file you just downloaded. After it installs, when you open iTunes the first time, you'll probably see this error: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." When you click ok the box closes & iTunes doesn't open.
Go into your iTunes folder (usually in your My Music folder) and remove this file - it will show up as iTunes Library.itl or maybe just iTunes Library. You could just delete it because you already have a backup from step #1. The other file, also called iTunes Library, is an .xml file that you can delete if you want.
6. Open iTunes - it will look totally blank w/ no files. Don't panic! Go to File>Import and try to import the library you made way back in step #1. I'm sorry to say it might not work. If it doesn't, the next thing to try is to import an older version of the library file, which will be in the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder inside the iTunes folder. This also didn't work for me. So....
7. If you couldn't get the library file to open, you need to add your music back in. I just went to File>Add Folder to Library and added my My Music folder. You could also try doing it from backup discs but that takes a long time; in either case, if you have a lot of music this will take awhile. Just let iTunes do it's thing.
8. Now you can go to File>Import and select the playlists you created in step #1. This did work for me when I went from 7.4.3.1 back to 7.3.2.6.
You should be good to go! I hope this helps some people. If you have any questions you can post them, but I can't promise that I will have answers.

Hi - it sounds like you still need to move the library file, which is in step 5 of my original post; this is assuming you exported your library before you went back to 7.3 - if you didn't do that, don't delete anything yet - just try moving the itunes library.itl file onto your desktop:
"5. Now restart. After you're back up, click on the iTunes setup file you just downloaded. After it installs, when you open iTunes the first time, you'll probably see this error: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." When you click ok the box closes & iTunes doesn't open.
"Go into your iTunes folder (usually in your My Music folder) and remove this file - it will show up as iTunes Library.itl or maybe just iTunes Library. You could just delete it because you already have a backup from step #1. The other file, also called iTunes Library, is an .xml file that you can delete if you want (actually, just leave the .xml file where it is).
"6. Open iTunes - it will look totally blank w/ no files. Don't panic! Go to File>Import and try to import the library you made way back in step #1."
Since I wrote that I've gone back and forth a couple of times, and importing the backup library file should work. If for some reason you didn't export your library, you can try importing the iTunes Music Library.xml file in your iTunes folder. It takes a really long time but this does also work.
If you were having the same 11333 error that I was, I was finally able to get into the iTunes store with 7.4.3 after installing certificate revocations lists as described on this page: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306628
I think that's helped a lot of people - have you tried that? Of course, to do that you would have to reinstall the newer version to try it.
Please post again if you are still having problems with the library, but I think you should be ok!

I try to delete the things I have typed in, like passwords and usernames and things like that. Before I got the new download, it always worked. Now it won't. Help?

When I get on facebook, youtube, or yahoo, I type in my password and username. Other people get on this computer, and I don't want them to know my username or passwords. But when I clear the history, it doesn't clear it anymore. Before I had the new download it would always clear.

Okay so i had an iphone 5. I backed it up on icloud. Then i got the new iphone 5s i restored ot from icloud from my previous iphone 5. Now everything works find execept now the games are slowy and drops the frame rate and look choppy. Then i restarted my iphone 5s as a new device downloaded the same apps even the ones optimized for ios 7 and the games still lag. And i just got my iphone 5s replace. The funny thing is. While im playing games and their running choppy and slow and if i take a snap shot inside the phone. They run smooth and HD but just for a few seconds and boom they go back to slow and choppy. Is it the ios 7 or the iphone 5s it self? Like i said this is my replacement iphone 5s because the other 5s did the same thing. And it was running slowly.

As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account. It's assigned when the account is created. But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password. Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't. Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it. If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.

I just got the new 5s and when i downloaded my contacts from iCloud a lot of them are missing!!!! i tired to make a new backup from my old iphone but it didn´t worked, what can i do to get all my contacts

My itunes sync stopped working when I got the new iphone. How to fix it?

My Iphone 4 worked great. It synced with my itunes perfectly. I;d buy a song on my computer and moments later it would also show up on my iphone. I thought I configured all the boxes correctly when I got the new iphone but now the wifi sync feature seems to have stopped working. I went back and checked and it appears all the right boxes are checked but still no sync. When I go to wifi sync in settings it says it has to be plugged in, locked and the home comuter available. I tried that and it still wont wifi sync. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Help please.

Stopped working as in it's totally unresponsive?
Try restarting. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.

I have just got the new iPod touch. Everything is working except my iMessage and I don't know how I can set it up.

Gave my grandsons iPods for Xmas. Looks like one of them downloaded an app (text+) and must/may have deleated on hisiPod the iMessage app that was included on both with both iPods.
I want to ditch this new app (text+) and return iMessage to his phone as they both are wifi only and iMessaget is what they should both use. Ialso have a iPad (wifi only) and a iphone (both on iOS5) and a MacBook on 10.7.2
Any help as to how to do this (I would prefer not to due a full restore to the affected iPod if possible)

If gumsie's suggestion isn't the answer, try logging into another account, like Guest, and see if you get the same behavior. You may need to clean the windows on the bottom of the mouse.

HT1711 I recently deleted iTunes off my computer by accident, when I reinstalled it I got the new version and I can't figure out how to get my music to store on my iTunes to transfer from my iPhone to iTunes.

I recently deleted iTunes off my computer by accident, when I reinstalled it I got the new version and I can't figure out how to get my music to store on my iTunes to transfer from my iPhone to my iTunes. I goal is to get my iPod filled with the music that I have stored on my iPhone and figured the only way to do so is to use iTunes as my transfer hub. Any suggestions?

Wow you're kind of a iTunes bully. Dude the reason I am asking for advice and help is I am completely computer ********. If I knew the answer I wouldn't be asking. Anyways. Question to anyone else.
If I have no music on my iTunes at all and no music on my computer, hard drive or any other version of storage yet there is a playlist on my iPhone. While my iPhone is plugged into my PC and my iTunes is up, is there a way to swap my playlist from my iPhone to my iTunes? Directly? Without downloading some new media source or backing up my old media source from my history. The reason everything was deleted (iTunes and media source) was due to the size of everything and space it was requiring. I am simply trying to get 233 songs from A to B.
I have tried magic but it is not working.

Good.
Three things come to mind:
1. I think you're implying when you travel away from your home to a more populated area, the cellular coverage improves and your iPhone works well. Is that right?
2. Do you have a case or some other obstruction over or near your iPhone's antenna? Have you tried moving or removing any possible obstructions near the antenna?
3. AT&T has a (free) app in the App Store called "Mark the Spot". You can use this app to report voice and/or data issues to AT&T, as well as keep up on progress they may be making in improving coverage in your area. Your trouble reports are geotagged (if you wish).

Got the new 5s-do I have to get a screen protector is it durable enough without

As far as I am aware CDMA models are only sold in the US so you would need to take it back to where you bought it from for a replacement or refund (and you would also need to be within that store's refund time period). If you have a non-Verizon iPhone then you might be able to use that with a local micro-sim as a mobile hotspot for the iPad, assuming that your phone carrier supports the personal hotspot function on the iPhone, or you could try getting a mifi device and use that with the iPad
