Are you using WiFi? if you are this will take a long time, switching to a wired connection will go much faster but as you have started I would not change now.

I just created a slideshow dvd in imovie, and when I hit finalize it said that it would take 7 hours to finalize. I've only had my macbook pro for 6 months, and this is the first imovie I've done...is this normal? If not how can I speed up this process?

Hi
Time needed can depend on several things.
• less than 5 GB free space on Start-up (Mac OS) hard disk = Redicolous long times AND a DVD that most probably will not work OK
Medicine - I never go under 25GB free space
• Use of strange file formats into iDVD - can force it to de-code first then re-encode - this can take long long times
I use
Video - StreamingDV as from miniDV tape Cameras - or QuickTime Movies Converted to StreamingDV
Audio - .aiff 16-bit 48 kHz - (no .mp3, .wma etc)
• Use of old Mac - My G4 600MHz took about 24 hour per hour movie. my dG5 - about 2 hours per hour (I use Pro Quality encoding)
• Pro Quality encoding - takes about x2 to process a movie

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

I started and Export PDF over two and half hours ago, and it is still going. How can I stop it?

I started an export PDF over two and a half hours ago and it is still going. I can't stop, and I can't upload export anything else.

I have the same problem - updates are stuck on loading, and the app store is now also doing the same. I've tried resetting, but it hasn't made any difference.
I haven't been able to load iTunes onto my computer - 2 hours on the phone with Apple, as well as 4 hours of my IT guy's time (which I paid for) and no one could help. So going through iTunes on the computer is not an option for me.
Is there any way of cancelling or resetting the apps just with the phone?
Have had the phone for 6 months and this is the first time it's happened, but it's been stuck like that for about a week. Now I can't update or load any apps.

HT3702 I accidentally deleted my receipt for the purchase of an audiobook another? In my account history, there is no sign of it yet - I purchased it 2 days ago - but the charge is already on my credit card.

I accidentally deleted my receipt for the purchase of an audiobook on iTunes. How can I get another? In my account history, there is no sign of it yet - I purchased it 2 days ago - but the charge is already on my credit card.

You're looking in your Purchase History?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
If so and you don't see the purchase there, and you're sure your looking in the account through which you purchased the audiobook (and are sure you bought it from the iTunes Store, not from audible.com or some other site), go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. If the audiobook didn't download, they can help, and they may be able to send you another copy of the receipt.
Regards.

Using Back Up Mode is taking me quite literally days to complete! Is this at all normal? Am I doing something wrong? How can I speed up this process so that I can update my iPod touch's operating system!

I have downloaded Firefox 7 and started the Wizard but am continualy told that I have an older version that needs to be removed and have to reboot? How can I get around this?

My OS is Windows 7. I want to change from IE to Firefox. After selecting the standard installation I am told that I must reboot to remove an older version of Firefox. This is as far as I have been able to get. I have downloaded 3 times now and rebooted 4. Any ideas?

Hi Swarnava,
I followed your two links to try to solve this problem but still ended up with a re-boot request to remove an earlier version which I don't have. I have not downloaded Firefox and set it up yet so I have nothing to remove! I have checked my programs via Control Panel too, nothing. Stuck!

Using Mozilla FIrefox I now keep gettng a display that says I must install a new "plug-in". How can I make sure this "plug-in" is secure?

Lately I've been receiving requests to update a "plug-in". This is a new message, and I can't get to my usual web sites without upgrading a "plug-in". A list of "plug-ins" is then displayed that require updating. How secure is this update page? Should I log in to your Mozilla web site to insure security? I don't want to be a victim of "phishing".
Thank you,
Dave Hatch

My Ipod Touch 32gb 4g home button has started freezing. I press home and it only occasionally works. How can i fix this?

I want to know is it the software or is it broken.
I press home to return to the main menu and it 40% of the time works. It makes using the Ipod difficult and uncomfortable and i'm really dissapionted and don't want to use it for fear that it will get worse.
Not only this but sometimes when i press lock screen it just flashes the screen.
I updated to Ios5 recently and had no problems. I have 1GB of memory left. All my apps are functioning no bother.
I havent bashed my ipod around, the screen only has minor scratches so i don't think i've been careless however my broter and sister regularly use it too so it doesn't have much rest time.
Also is it better to power off or lock screen at night?
I thank you for any replies, does anybody else have the same problem?

I place mine in airplane mode at night to minimize battery drain.

Migrating iTunes library from a Windows PC to a Mac

Hi.
If I previously have iTunes on a Windows PC and want to migrate the enitre library to a Mac, how do I do it? I've got all the files transfered over the traditional way - via an external hard drive - but I can't bring the playlists over. I'd hate to have to start creating playlists again.
Cheers...

HT4061 just deactivated my iPhone 4s and replaced with 5s. The phone was wiped. I would like to activate it just to use it as an iPod. However I do not remember my iCloud username and password and cannot activate without it. How can I get past this?
