  • I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library.  Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod.  How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

    - iTunes purchases by maybe

    - For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

    BTW, this is the iPod touch forum.

  • I am running InDesign CC. Every time I try to redefine a paragraph style, it crashes.  It's just start doing it and I have had CC for a few months.  Any suggestions? Thank you

    Do you mean Toolkit or TypeKit, which is part of CC? See Remove minor corruption by exporting. If that doesn't work, try exporting the text to ID Tagged Text and place in a new file, and if that also fails, try removing the fonts.

  • Shuffle (2nd Gen) not been used for a few years - not working at all - any ideas?

    My Ipod Shuffle (2nd Gen) has not been used for a long time and now will not give any reponse at all. It won't charge and it is not recognised by ITunes - is there anything I should do?

    Sorry...  I did not notice your reply.
    The initial blinking is good.  That means there is a connection between shuffle and computer.  But it should continue blinking or become a solid color (ON but not blinking).
    It could be a problem with the battery.  If a lithium battery is left completely drained for an extended period, it can become unable to hold a charge.  However, it could also be a problem with the USB port (such as not enough available power or a USB device conflict).  As a test, you should try shutting down the computer and disconnecting all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used).  If your computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power).  Do this to reset the shuffle

    Start up computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle by itself to a direct USB port on computer.

  • HT1766 My iPhone and my computer both tell me I have never backed up my iPhone to iCloud, when I have numerous times.  I get this message:  Your Phone has never been backed up to iCloud.  Today at 3:11pm. Even after I run 'backup now'

    I have recently been experiencing problems with my iPhone and iCloud backup.  My iPhone tells me I have not backed it up to iCloud in over 4 weeks, when in actually it was 2 days ago.  So I plug my phone into my laptop and click - 'Back up to iCloud'. It runs and when complete, it tells me 'Your iPhone has never been backed up to iCloud.'  Even I after I have just completed the function. 
    Can someone help shed light on what the problem is?

    To backup to iCloud, you actually backup on your phone, not your computer. To backup to iCloud, you MUST be connected to wifi. While on wifi, go to Settings> iCloud (sign into iCloud if you haven't yet)> Sorage & Backup> Backup Now. You get 5GB of complimentary iCloud storage. For most people, that's enough. iCloud backup stores app data (game progress, login, etc), contacts, calendars, notes, and photos. The apps themselves and your music can be retrieved in the iTunes and app stores for free again by going to the purchased area.
    Hope this helps!

  • I went to back up my Mac on the same Seagate Free Agent I've been using for a year, but I got a message "the disk you inserted was not readable by this computer."  I'm still using Snow Leopard like I've always been.  What is going on, and how do I fix it?

    I went to back up on the Seagate Free Agent I've been using for almost a year.  I got the message, "the disk you inserted is not readable by this computer."  What do I do now?  How can I fix it?

    10.7.4 is not Snow Leopard.    10.7.4 is Lion. 
    Also, is the drive connected via USB or Firewire? 
    If USB are there other devices on the USB bus? 
    Are you using Time Machine, Superduper, Carbon Copy Cloner, or another software?.

    I'm new to Ipad 2.  I can bring up a website, but I can't make it active; i.e., perform any functions within the website.  I cannot make the screen move -- nothing.  Help!!

    Can you navigate http://www.apple.com ?
    Without knowing your credit union's web site it is hard to tell what the problem is.

  • My MacBook Pro is hanging for very long periods of time whenever I try to perform any functions.

    Hello Collective Wisdom,
    I have a MacBook Pro from mid-2009 and have recently experienced some problems. There's an above-average bootup time, and whenever I try to perform any functions (say, open a browser window, go into Finder, launch an app, try to type a URL, search for anything), the Spinning Ball of Death comes up for about 5-7 minutes before the function resolves.
    I've been able to get into Disk Utility and it suggested I use Command + R at the bootup screen to do a HD Repair, which I did. But the problem is still occuring.
    What do I Do?

    The next time you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Select any messages timestamped from then until the end of the episode. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Firefox 4 is extremely slow to perform any function on my lap top compared to previous versions. Why? And how do I change this!

    Firefox 4 is extremely slow to perform any function on my lap top compared to previous versions. Why? And how do I change this!

    Firefox 21 and Firefox 22 running on Windows 7 have been reported to take a long time to "wake up" from sleep. I realize hibernation is different than sleep, but... this is the closest match for your description.
    Some users have reported that this problem is resolved in Firefox 23 (currently in beta). Others have had inconsistent luck with minimizing Firefox before letting Windows sleep and other measures.
    Please check out this (very long) thread for more information: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898 browser freezes after resuming from sleep]
    Or jump to the part about Firefox 23: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898?page=3#answer-457321
    The fact that this just started recently suggests perhaps it is related to another program or update, but I don't think anyone has confirmed the exact interaction that causes the problem.

Someone help please?

  • I've had this iPad computer thing for a few months now. I used to just put in my password when I downloaded an app or such like. Now it wants me to set up 4 further questions and answers "for added security". How can I return to the old system?

    I've had this iPad thing for a few months. It used to just ask me for my password, but now it is demanding I set up four questions and answers for
    "added security". I don't want to do that, I just want to carry on as I was but the machine is preventing any app downloads etc.
    Seems the stupid machine is in control.
    How do I get it to listen when I threaten it with a good thrashing and a one way trip to the garbage unless it does what I say?
    Thanks

    You may have no need for additional but Apple does. They don't want your iTunes account to be hacked and then go complaining to them that their security procedures are not up to standards.

    So how can I continue in the good old fashioned way?
    Its really absurd to even ask this in light of the information that you have been given already. The "old fashioned" way is gone. It's Apple's store, Apples's rules and IMO - its a wise decision on Apple's part.
    You do not have to comply at all, but you will not be able to purchase from iTunes anymore, but nobody is going to force you to do something that you do not want to do.
