Got Zen Xtra back from Creat

I just got back a Zen Xtra 30gb from Creative. I had sent it in last month for them to repair the headphone jack problem. I must have gotten either a new or refurbished Zen Xtra because it looked brand new and the serial number was different from what I had submitted. Either way, it works great. Thanks Creative.

No, nothing on the Zen Xtra except the tutorial stuff they have on it. No big deal though. I'm giving it to my girlfriend who doesn't have an MP3 player and keeps stealing my Micro from me. She actually asked me if she could keep the Micro and have me take the Zen Xtra. I laughed and said no. Still, she's happy she has an MP3 player now.

I just got my Mac back from Apple repair and I can't burn a disc. What do I need to do to make that happen?

Hello deneye2112,
Thank you for providing the details of the burning issue you are experiencing. I found some resources that I think might help:
First, I recommend resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac (I wasn't sure if you had a removable battery or a built in battery, so I listed the steps for both):
Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove
Note: Learn about removing the battery on MacBook and MacBook Pro.
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your ownNote: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

If you are still having trouble with burning after that step, I recommend reviewing the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the following article:

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4". Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files. Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen. Do you not have a backup? The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
No one can magically make them re-appear.

I got my MBP back from AppleCare, LCD whine fixed!

Hello, I just got my computer back from AppleCare to get the screen whine repaired. It quiet as ever and I'm very happy. I've had no issues with CPU whine, ever.
-Jacob

Congrads! It's always nice to hear something positive from Apple. They don't have time to do it right the first time but they have plenty of time to it over again. Either way, its stories such as yours that keeps me from canceling my MBP order which scheduled for 30 March shipment. If it takes longer I will be happy to wait. Reason: I'm praying for a serial number: W8610xxx or grater, meaning manufacturing date of: "86" = 2006 / "10>" meaning week ten or greater in the production cycle. I would be even happier if shows week "11" or "12" in the suffix since Apple has identified units with serial numbers of: W869xx… or below that are more susceptible of having a defective “inverter” w/noise that emits from the upper right corner of the keyboard. This valuable information comes from another Discussion Member who got lucky with an honest and knowledgeable tech support dude at Apple.

Got my G5 back from the apple specialist (A Fixed Logicboard?)

So Just got my g5 back from the apple repair place. The computer had a problem with its logicboard, just spent a sh%t load on getting that repaired...
So bring it home, update the latest mac software, as i was burning a scratched cd-r, it stopped and said some kinda mac error, (probably something like the cd is unreadable, which makes sense) right then is when it froze... not even a force quit could save it. Restarted it no problem... played a game, an hour or two later, out of nowhere it did another ultimate freeze... Restarted it, now its not even loading, just still on the apple logo. This is what happend when the apple genius guys did a diagnostic on it originally before getting the new logicboard...
So first thing I will talk with the repair place see why its doing this again... But what do you think it is? Another bad Logicboard? I know its not a HD problem, but it might be a processor, right?
What do all of you guys think?
Thanks soooo much for your time!

If what you are seeing is a boot that only goes as far as the Apple logo, but never starts the spinning gear, then you've got what I had this last weekend...
What's happening in the sequence is BootX has checked the basics of your hardware and found things working by its quick test. It's not exhaustive, but it's not trivial either.
Then BootX transfers control to the boot code on the disk (I believe in a fixed location on the disk). That puts the Apple logo on the screen.
Then it starts to load drivers, and puts the spinning gear up.
If you never see the spinning gear, I would strongly suspect you have a boot disk problem. Likely the logical structure of the volume has a problem; possibly there are also surface problems on the disk itself.
Try starting up while holding the "Option" key down, this should give you a choice of drives to boot from. If you have the APP or Tech Tool disk, that's a good one to put in the CD drawer. Try a disk test from inside there, or if you don't have those, use the OS X install disk and run a verify from Disk Utility.
Write back and let us know how things progress.

Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. If you have IOS-7, read this.

Have just got my iphone back from my daughters who has been using it. I have put my sim card in and cannot update it or do anything as it is stating emergency calls only. it only recognises on itunes as her iphone what should i do please

i have just got my 3gs back from my daughter and i have put my sim card in and it comes up as emergency calls only. That is my first problem then when i plug it into itunes it only recognises it as her iphone can anyone help my please ?

I agree with wjosten. Sounds like a sim card issue. Was your sim card removed from a working,activated phone? I've switched sim cards in an iphone multilple times and never had a problem. You might try removing the sim card and reinstalling.

Zen xtra recording from line

hi,I have been loading my new
nomad Zen Xtra with my CD collection,going great once I got the hang of it {novice here} now I would like to load onto the `Zen` my old tape collection,this is where I am having a big problem,I make connection as follows
---plug into the ear phone jack socket of my tape player
--plug the other end into line in on the PC
--set the recorder going.........timer works
--can hear music through the speakers......appears to go my music ect........
-- when I sellect play back ...there is nothing.. no sound although the play slider moves
--tried different players....all the same
--does any one know what I am doing wrong ?
--has any one had same probs?
I am using Creative Media sorce organizer to do the transfer
frustrated Ron...................

hi every body, thanks for all the advice:--------------
the problem was the player that I was using to send to pc did not have a strong enough signal for the pc to reconise,athough I could hear it ok on the head phones,and also on the pc speakers,the recorder could not "hear it "tried other leads no good
then I used my large radio cassett player and it worked,
so I`m happily transfering my cassett music to the Zen,what a task the tagging is.
This will be repeated when I do my old L.P collection,we don`t know how lucky we are with the CD with all the info on.
regards Ron

Strategies to keep the Zen Xtra cover from popping o

OK - I had heard that the Zen Xtra cover pops off easy before I bought it and thought it couldn't be all that bad
But it seems like all I have to do is touch my player sometimes and the cover pops off
I put a piece of tape on the latch on the bottom so I couldn't jostle it just as soon as I got it and saw what a hair trigger it was - but it seems like sometimes I just pick it up (maybe squeezing the sides a bit) and the cover pops off?
My refurbished Zen Xtra didn't come with a case - maybe that helps prevent the cover from popping?
Any other strategies or fixes from folks who have dealt with this irritating feature? (Sound quality wise I'm VERY happy with it... but I can see where this might continue to be a major annoyance over time)

Zen Xtra unable to create new or update playli

I am unable to create new play lists on my Zen Xtra. When I use the Zen itself, it looks like it creates the playlist but when I open it, the Zen screens draws a box and prints "error" in the box. Using Nomad explorer, it creates the list, I can add to it, delete from it, and it appears to work in every way but when I try to open it on the Zen, I get the little box and the word "error" in it. I tried taking an existing playlist, removing all the titles, add title to the playlist and I get the same eror message. I have run the clean up disk from the utilities menu on the Zen. I have also upgraded to the latest firmware version. Other than the error on the play list, the unit works perfectly.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Randy

Does this player have an upgraded hard disk?
Either way, how many tracks are on the player?

Got my MBP back from Apple-Problems

I sent my MBP in for repair on Monday and got it back today.
I now have a couple of annoying problems. The first thing is every time i boot up my computer, it says "Your computers clock is set before March 24, 2001." Some applications may have issues etc. The first time i thought nothing of it but every time i restart my computer it says it. I went into date and time and had ti sync with time.apple.com and it did so successfully. The data and time are correct and i just restarted and the same thing happened so it seems my computer isn't keeping time while off. The second this is every time I turn on my computer or wake it from sleep, i have to put in my Wi-Fi password again. I check the box that tells it to store it in my keychain and I check in keychain access and it shows it stored. How do i solve these problems?
Lastly, i got my computer back and they didn't do a re-install of the OS so everything is still on my computer but when I plug in my external drive, it comes up as the green time machine drive but whenever i try to backup, it fails. Why is this? I would like to be able to access my old backups and just continue. I know there is plenty of space, my time machine drive still has 118gb free. I don't know what apple did to my computer but they fixed some problems and created a few more to take their place!
Thanks in advance!

I got my iPhone back from apple to day for a repair and has no screws

I got my iPhone 5 back from apple today I sent it in for a repair cause the touch stopped working and I got it back with no screws I'm over it

Well your phone isn't screwed? Take it back to apple and have them repair it by adding the missings screws. Perhaps the technician had a bad hair day.
