Here's a weird and wonderful problem that would mean so much if somebody could help!
Ipod: 5th Generation Video (Classic)
The Problem: Essentially what I am trying to do is recover photos off my Mum's old Ipod. She imported these photos onto the Ipod directly from her camera at the time (2006) so they were never saved on any computer. There are about 500 photos of a family holiday. It means so much to me to get these off now because my Dad passed away earlier this year and I want to surprise my Mum with these photos which we haven't properly been able to see for about 8 years now.
The Ipod does turn on, I am able to see the photos, but here's the issue: when I connect the Ipod to my computer, whether in normal mode or disk mode, Itunes freezes, the internet cuts out, and (if in disk mode) when the Ipod shows in 'My Computer' as a removable disk in F: drive, I cannot gain access into it - the window just freezes. Essentially, the whole computer jams up, but is instantly fine again as soon as I disconnect. I am therefore unable to remove these photos off the Ipod.
This is pretty much my last resort. I cannot even tell you how grateful me, my brother and mum would be if anyone was able to help me fix this problem.
I will try and answer any questions fully and speedily
Many thanks in advance
Thanks for the reply Curt,
I have tried both suggestions and it does appear to be part my computer and part the Ipod's problem. I tried switching and plugging into another computer (Macbook Pro) and although the internet did not cut out, Itunes still froze/refused to start up and although the Ipod was found in the USB tree, it wasn't showing up in Finder. This appears to be the common theme - the computers are finding the Ipod, but not being able to fully connect with it

Hi can anyone help me, my daughters macbook will not pick up the wireless signal in her bedroom when me and my wifes iphone picks it up easy. any ideas to help please.Andy
P.S i;ve heard a comment about the G5 case not being
great for wireless so the cards come with a plastic
antena that connects to the back of the machine - i
never recieved one of these - could that be the
problem?
Newer G5 PowerMacs don't require the external t-shaped aerial, earlier models do and that is probably the cause of the problem.

First, we're not Apple here (Apple does not participate in this forum). We're only users like you.
The previous owner has not given you the correct ID and password for you to use.
If the iphone has iOS version 7, then read through the following...

when i open iphoto i see my photo's for 1 second and then they are gone .The photo's are still there but i can see them only on the bottom or top of my screen when i try to open them i get a sign that it is not possible.Can somebody please help me?
Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel. This may take a while for a large library.
Can you now see your photos again?
If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad: Re: iphoto crashed -
I just updated my phone and it's told me to plug it into itunes and now itunes is telling me to restore my phone but, that would mean losing all my media, what do I do?
If your phone is showing the connect to the iTunes screen then you will need to reset it back to factory defaults. Prior to starting the update did you copy your purchases over to your computer's iTunes library and take a backup (either to iTunes or to the cloud) ? If you took a backup then you should be able to restore to that. If you didn't copy your purchases over then what you can redownload for free will show in the Purchased tabs in the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps on your phone, and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes.

this does not help at all for the second owner, after making the first owner id with careless, sorry for my english ...
Careless? Possible, but unlikely. Most likely the phone was stolen from the first owner. It would be a VERY careless iPhone owner who did not erase their personal information from a phone before selling it, and to do that it is necessary to disable Activation Lock. In most places in the world knowingly using stolen property is a crime, so the fact that the phone doesn't work may be the least of one's risks. -

1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
2. Here are two different but direct methods:
a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
and service.

Illustrator (CS6, Creative Cloud) crashes when I use the move tool. No help here in the forums that I can see.
As far as I'm concerned this is a ridiculous problem that is so basic - it should not happen for the price Adobe charges.
Completely ruins workflow.
Please help.Emily,
Just to make sure, are all the faces of the Verdana and Tahoma fonts installed and enabled/activated through the OS (not font mangement) as TTF (not OTF)? -
My trackpad is sounding really weird and i have warranty! what can i do? PLEASE HELP
i dont know this normal or not this an 2 week old white macbook and the trackpad is sound weird and it depends on what surface you put it!
I had a similar problem and just found a fix for it.
My problem was that on one spot, the clicking seemed muffled, as if something was stuck underneath the trackpad, and near that spot, one time out of two, the click was twice as loud as normal, like it was "unsticking" something.
Anyways, I read that you could apply a good amount of pressure (as in push hard) on the whole trackpad (I used 6 fingers) for 2-3 seconds to fix this. It worked for me. I also read about gently hitting it with your fist... don't know if it works, but I didn't quite want to hit my MBP with my fist... -
