How, on the ipod touch 5th gen, can you get rid of songs in the songlist?  I restored from a stolen ipod touch 4th gen, and now there is a bunch of crap that is not even mine on this thing.  The songs only show up in the songs listing.

I had my last ipod stolen, when I got the 5th Gen I restored from my old ipod from itunes and now there is a bunch of crap on there that I don't want, but the songs only show up on the ipod so I can not delete them off of the ipod from itunes.  Any quick fixes to remove the unwanted songs, or do I have to start over completely?

Do they play on the iPod?
If not then they are corrupted.
Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.

If the other is larger than about 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted file.

  • Imported picture from clipart on excel and now there is a colorful spinning image that will not stop and I have not saved my work

    I need the wheel to stop spinning and get back to being able to do my work. With all of my previous data, because I did not "save" most of the data.

    We have all made that mistake....
    It sounds as though you are going to have to Force Quit Excel, and anything you haven't saved will have to be redone.
    You might want to check to make sure that you have Auto Recover checked, and also have it set for the number of minutes you feel comfortable with. Under Excel>Preferences>Save
    Best of luck,

    When upgrading or downloading certain apps, my iPhone 5C is asking for a password to an account that's not even mine. I want this removed.

    It will be  an App that you personally did not buy using your Apple id ( an App purchase locks the App to the Apple id used to buy permanently, to prevent piracy )
    Next time you get the message check which Apps are trying to update ,it will be one or all of those Apps

    anyone else having problems with popups since the new security upgrade? can't get rid of them

    You may have inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it. It ought not to be related to any Apple security update.
    For a description of how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for Apple's recommended actions read How to install adware. Apple's instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

  • I just updated my Iphone 3G and now it won´t work anymore. It wouldn´t even boot. It was just working for 3 sek. after the installation and now it shut itself down. Any help, please?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    You also said: "It also will not let me download any music onto it." What happens when you try to sync music to the iPod?

  • When taking a picture with home button and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar??

    When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)

    No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars.  (Many are free in the App Store.)  Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot.  Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.

  • What is the white dot on my ipod screen?  i can't get rid of it even when using apps?

    If I click on the dot it brings up a translucent screen with other options: Favourites (star) Home (home button) Device (picture of an iphone) and the circle (gestures).  No matter what I do I cannot get rid of this icon and it is driving me mental!
    Message was edited by: dmayt
    Just did a further search and found that my question was alreaxdy answered by Jandt - thank you!

    The white dot is the button that brings up AssistiveTouch which allows you to use your iPod if you have difficulty touching the screen.
    To turn this function off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > OFF.

  • I guess i updated to latest version of Firefox and now i have a bunch of crap at the top of the screen that i want to get rid of. can't find any way to do it. i want my old opening window.

    Don't want "newspapers," "real estate," etc. at top of window. Unnecessary stuff. with previous version of Firefox it wasn't there. don't want it. no noticeable way to get rid of it.

    Is that part of the web page or is that positioned on a toolbar?

  • How can you get rid of the stripe on the homescreen created in ios 7?

    I found this question some months ago, but no one had a method to resolve it.
    I wanted to remove the solid stripe across the bottom of my ipad 4 homescreen.  I think it's been called an app park, a shelf, and an applications easy access.  Whatever it is, I really hate it. I like a solid black screen.  There was a transparency to the old ios---I have on my iphone because I didn't update it to 7 when I found out it did this.  This one is solid and grey! Really ugly.  Is there any way to get rid of it, make it transparent, or  at least minimize it? 

    Hi again. Well, it isn't death-defying or anything. And it isn't only because I CAN'T customize it and that burns me.    It wastes my desktop space because I don't use it.  When you are visually impaired---real estate on the desktop is pretty important.  I usually have a black screen to see the icons better, but if I have a picture---the bottom is chopped off with this ugly gray stripe.  The old 6.0.3 had the shelf, but it was transparent.  It didn't bother me.  This one does.  That simple.  I thought I saw instructions to at least change the color or something somewhere, but that was when it was new, and I can't find that again anywhere online.  I guess everyone else got on board (moo), and I'm the only one left that still hates it.
    I know these things are supposed to be updates, but I think Apple missed the boat on this one and screwed up a good thing.  Maybe they fixed it in 7.4? (wishful) Anyway, I'm not even offered that IOS.  Mine is still asking me to update to 7.1.  I guess you have to update in order?  I'm working in 7.0.4; that's the IOS that came with the unit in December.

  • I have a moto g on prepaid and now when somebody tries to call it says person not accepting calls at this time. What have I done to make it do this and how do I fix it?

    I have a Moto G on prepaid. What did I hit to make it say I am not accepting calls at this time? I did it by accident if I have done something on the phone. Please help!! I need to get it fixed.

    Finally got to the store to see what was going on. I didn't do it. My previous carrier was still holding my number even though it was working before. Verizon called and got it released and problem solved!!  Thanks!!

  • Babylon window displays every time i start my computer it says strings.dat is missing or corrupted how can you get rid of this?

    When i start my computer a window appears from Babylon and the message in the window is strings.dat is missing or corrupted.
    it has a button to push that says ok but when clicked on with curser nothing happens i uninstalled all babylon down loads and this was left behind would just like to get this out of my computer.
    can someone please help.

    pretty much exactly what i just figured out how to do it ealrier today! its a bug*er!
    i have posted a help request on a tech forum with logs etc incase there is any deeper infection, and will post any decent answer here. ok?
    basics for ridding of the actual babylon searchbar is like this...
    loading firefox, noticed that my google search bar wasnt google anymore and had ababylon icon instead!
    ASLO the browser displayed a FAKE GOOGLE search page!
    so i opened firefox, typed "about:config" in url bar and then you look just underneath the url bar, and you'll see another search bar.
    type babylon into it. right click on all of the results, and click reset.
    thats it now disabled totally for now.
    next go to tools>addons and look down the list and click uninstall babylon...
    bingo.
    but its not over yet! .....
    next go to start> search and type "babylon" (without the quotes) and see what comes up, mainly in programme files\mozzilla\search plugins
    and in the macromedia folder. if you get a "cannot delete.." notice, then that just means you havnt closed firefox (wich is odd coz you've apparently uninstalled the bug*er), so close firefox, then delete. you should now get rid of them all.
    it DOSNT show up on add/remove programmes, and it didnt show up on uninstall in advanced system care, though you may try the other uninstall button to the right , but you'll need to type in the "pathways" ( eg C:\my computer\programme files/etc).
    i'm still not convinced that this is the end of it though.
    from other forums i have noticed folk contacting AND phoning babylon and basaically being either abused or told they wont help.
    it seems to be invisible to AVG (i have the premium one too!) though around the time i installed the xvid codecs i did get an avg notice warning of an infection found in my t-mobile modem (dongle) but it seemed to actually be the tmobile liveupdat.exe, so i left it as i am sure i would get even worse problems if a effed around with it. (ie no connection, (eventually)
    this is th link to the posting i made on techguy
    please dont post willy nilly babylon posting on it so the volunteers dont get pist off, as that wont help if there are really deeper problems to solve. this is the link to it [[have i cleaned babylon hijack infection properly?|here it is]]

  • How can you get rid of icons in menu bar?

    I recently took my MacBook to the local store to have it cleared and restored back to factory settings. I have the OS X Mountain Lion program installed. I set up two accounts (Admin account and second one to use). When I turned my computer off and back on again, I've noticed a Guest account. When I went into my System Preferences to get rid of it, I've noticed that it's greyed out (so I can't delete it). Another issue I'm having is a symbol I'm seeing up top in my menu bar (<--->. Does anyone know what this means and how I can go about getting rid of it?

    In the area where it allows you to add or delete   the delete symbol is greyed (shaded) out where I don't have that option to delete the "guest" account. And the ethernet symbol I'm seeing in the right hand corner of my screen is still there after deleting it in the System Preference/Network section.
